   Reader note

   This book is quite peculiar. The reader has an omniscient perspective yet can't guess what the protagonist is thinking or doing. Even the protagonist, Jiang Xunyi, seems to barely speak throughout the entire book (he really does!), And he'd rather lie down than sit. He's lazy yet efficient in his work. You feel like he might fall asleep any second. But he exudes a strong sense of security; he's quiet within the group, yet his presence is overwhelming.

   The first book has no main couple, but many couples are easy to ship, and the side stories will include all the couples readers ship, guaranteeing a delightful reading experience! However, the protagonist is weak in the early stages, but around chapter 70, he turns out to be a villain. The second book features a sharp-tongued protagonist, and the focus is on the plot. The protagonist's childhood is marked by being manipulated and exploited by his older siblings while simultaneously vying for their position as the young master. The protagonist is wicked, but not evil, and he can't survive. The third book also focuses on the plot, featuring many narcissistic characters, a god-like protagonist, and numerous alternate identities, with the main character appearing less frequently. The fourth and fifth books are recommended for readers who enjoy shipping couples; both feature all-male protagonists. The sixth book features a male ghost, a god, and a cheerful little raven as the protagonist, who "falls in love with these people first, then with the world." I haven't read the seventh book much, so I won't comment on it.

   These are eight incredibly awesome books by Klass… The first one is newly released and has a lower rating, but I guarantee it with my integrity—the writing and plot are flawless!! The protagonist is portrayed as an unfathomable riddle-like figure, with a tragic and beautiful storyline that will always be imagined by teammates and bystanders, haha. The first book is very good! I also highly recommend books 3, 6, and 7. Their reputation speaks for itself. The fourth book is also worth reading; it features a cold-faced, cute, and arrogant protagonist, but the writing style is debatable. You'll find quite a few repetitive scenes while reading, so I suggest skipping it (๑•̀ㅁ•́ฅ). The seventh book is a post-apocalyptic story, but this one is quite different from other traditional post-apocalyptic novels. The descriptions of the apocalypse in this book tend to be warm and united, with not much scheming or intrigue, making it a heartwarming read! ❛˓◞˂̵✧

Then the fifth one has ability cards, and the cards drawn are about the underworld. It's just a summary of a beautiful, strong, and tragic character.

    The first book's protagonist, Lu Jiuxiao, enters the main group as an ordinary person. His special ability, as mentioned in the comments, is the "Eye of God." He's a character who appears cold on the outside but is warm-hearted inside, somewhat detached emotionally. Although he's popular and expresses his feelings through body language, our Yang is a bit of a jerk! The main plot revolves around helping the main group survive (not saving the world because the book's value system posits that human destruction doesn't equate to world destruction, hence the somewhat childish notion of saving humanity). Each character is well-developed, and the writing is decent, at least in this book. The second book's protagonist is Cen Yan, number 01, with multiple aliases. He's a transmigrator who, like a child, clearly doesn't understand or feel entitled to the kindness and concern shown to him by those around him. He has a very low sense of deservement, always protecting others at his own expense, yet still feeling he hasn't done anything for them. His childhood was also very tragic; he grew up in the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics. He is the Bureau's sharpest and most obedient tool, and also the most perfectly crafted work of art by his teacher. It was heartbreaking to watch, but thankfully everyone was trying their best to protect him. Yan Yan often softened (unconsciously) and cooperated, but he was too strong; he would still sacrifice his life when necessary. He's already died twice, and a third identity has appeared. The main plot is helping the protagonist group expel the game from this world. The writing style is serious when necessary and lighthearted when appropriate, with a good balance. The protagonist's name is Jiang Taiyan (Shuimo), a transmigrator with a system. The system is the world consciousness (i. E., The will of the heavens). As the name suggests, the protagonist will repeatedly die in front of the protagonist group and can be resurrected. He uses his popularity to get close to the original protagonist, Chi Guan, and join the protagonist group to gain popularity. He's selfish, but wouldn't such a person become ruthless, forgetful, and even risk his life when saving the world?! The main plot revolves around helping the will of the heavens successfully suppress the consciousness of the strange master within Chi Guan, thereby achieving the goal of world dimensional ascension. The fourth part of the story has a subtly warm style. The protagonist is named Shen Guanzhi, who was originally a passerby in the comic. The world's consciousness discovered he wasn't on the path of the plot (destiny) and requested his help. Because of his reserved nature, Shen Guanzhi doesn't have much screen time in the early stages, as he always sees himself as an observer and corrector, not a member of the main group, and feels alienated from them. However, things improve significantly later on, thanks to the presence of the sunny and cheerful young man (original protagonist Big) Pei Zhixu and the cunning old fox Jiang Weiran, who forcefully pull Shen Guanzhi into the story. The lively atmosphere of the main characters also subtly influenced him. The main plot is self-explanatory, so I won't go into detail. The fifth book's protagonist is called Su Bai. This book is more brain-intensive, with many foreshadowing elements and a complex web of relationships. Remember to take notes. Su Bai's life is tragic. The original intention of the Supernatural Ability Bureau was good, but I've forgotten the specifics. However, since a mole infiltrated it, a major reshuffle occurred. Because the director was sidelined, it became a playground for aristocratic scions and changed beyond recognition. When Su Bai was ten or eight years old, he destroyed a villainous organization's stronghold and returned alive. He was suspected of joining the villainous organization and was imprisoned until he was sixteen. But the problem is that Su Bai's older brother was killed by a mole in this organization! (While it might be a bit exaggerated, it's true.) The main plot involves helping the comic's author change the ending. The sixth book's protagonist is named Bai Ye, half of an evil god—half of his body. The other half is named Bai Yuan (it's kind of a ship, isn't it?). But currently, he seems to be a villain with multiple aliases. The exact number is unclear, but it's definitely not small. The main plot is self-explanatory, so I won't elaborate. The last book's protagonist is named Duan Shizhang, a transmigrator with incredibly bad luck (in a physical sense). After transmigrating into the comic, he intentionally approaches and joins the protagonist's group to gain popularity points to change (improve) his luck. The more popularity points, the luckier he is. He feels somewhat detached and unreal towards this world and the protagonist's group because he's had bad luck since childhood. People around him view him with prejudice, and his parents always believed it was his fault. So, being isolated is the norm for him. However, the protagonist's little sun doesn't care about all that—a burglar-like friend. Little Shi is also a cold-faced cutie! That's all for the introductions. Happy reading!

    The first one is my absolute favorite, a pure brotherly love story with two male protagonists. Aside from the loving relationship between the protagonists' parents, the focus is entirely on friendship. Honestly, Xiaowei and Xiaowu are practically "on the same wavelength" [smirk][smirk][smirk]. I can't quite describe my feelings about the second one, but the protagonist is a fake, and I seriously suspect the author's chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) hasn't disappeared. The third one is a bit dark for some, and the protagonist is from a "healing" anime. So, those who know, know.
