   This writing is very good. It turned out that when I first read it, the rating was 8.7, And now it is around 9 o'clock. There are many male protagonists, the female protagonist is extremely beautiful, and the female protagonist is suspected to be an empress (because it is not finished yet). The author is very good.

   Reader note

   The first pure dragon, without any human beings, with a completely innovative world view structure and power system setting. The second Western fantasy book, but it was written for a leisurely life, so it was very slow to read. The third book was buried in the masterpiece. It was easy to dismiss in the early stage, but in the later stage it became the best. There is no need to say more about these four books, just read them. The last one is very comfortable to read. The author knows what the audience wants to see.

    🔥Book Recommendation|"In this perfect world, only I remember the pain" In this era where happiness is mass-produced and pain is completely deleted, human beings have become the most perfect puppets. AI rules everything, pain is illegal data, sadness is a system virus, and regret is a flaw in human nature. Everyone is smiling, but no one is truly alive. Only he, Lin Que, was the only exception in the world. He is a resistant body, a tragedy master, a black marketeer, and a gravekeeper of humanity. He sells heartbreak, separation, loss, and regret, and sells the most taboo pain to perfect people who are numb with happiness. A cognitive bomb exploded through the sky, allowing the painless world to understand for the first time what pain is. Ye Wan, the sharp blade of Jingyi Division, Chen Yu, the fire girl, the buried Chenxi Community... A war about memory, freedom, and humanity has officially begun. Happiness without pain is the highest level of imprisonment. A life where you dare to cry and feel pain is truly alive. This is not a novel, it is a mirror to the perfect world. If you have ever doubted perfection, if you have ever felt empty in happiness, this book will make you understand again: Pain is the evidence that people are alive. — #Novelsrecommendation #dystopia #cyberpunk #high-burning novel #this perfect world only I remember the pain #humanity masterpiece

    Reader note

    Recommended book: "I Sell Tragedy to the World" If "happiness" is a commodity, then "pain" is a contraband prohibited from circulation by the system. And I am the last underground tragedy dealer in this city. My name is Lin Que, and I make a living by selling carefully prepared "painful memories" to customers who feel hollow and numb about a perfect life. Until I discovered the deepest secrets of the system: the colors that were taken away, the costs that were covered up, and a "silent dawn" that enveloped the city twenty years ago. Now, the hounds of the system are hunting me, and the "tragedy" memory code I developed has begun to mutate out of control, and a "memory plague" of pain and awakening is growing in the dark. And I, trapped in an ancient storage array that buries the core of the truth, became an incomplete data ghost. I had to solve the final mystery before my consciousness dissipated - what is the "source"? Who is the "other key"? And what kind of bloody truth is buried under the dusk of that "Silent Dawn"? This is a cold war about reality, memory and resistance under the perfect surface of the system. There is no Superman, no golden finger, only a fragile body, dangerous technology, the wisdom to find a way out in the ruins of data, and the persistence of "color" that still refuses to be extinguished in desperate situations. Keywords: Hardcore cyberpunk, memory trading, dystopia, technological suspense, group struggle. Style: cold, detailed, full of technical details and psychological tension, like "Neuromancer" meets "Black Mirror", with a bit of the lonely texture of "The Skeptic's Almanac". If you are tired of Long Aotian and the system flow, and long for a dark science fiction story with rigorous logic, solid settings, and characters struggling to survive under the crushing of a huge system and trying to pry a crack - this book may be the dose of "sober pain" you are looking for. "What they took away was not only the color, but also the ability to feel the color. And I want to sell this feeling of 'loss' back to those who have forgotten what 'pain' feels like." —— Lin Que
