Grabbing the wrong Novel Updates links

[Perry-God]

Plugin

English: Novel Updates

Severity

Can't load novels

Steps to reproduce

When accessing a Novel Updates title, some of the chapters are missing, and the ones that do work link to totally different novels. I'm really not sure what's causing this. It works fine in webview

Expected behavior

LNreader should show the same amount of chapters as webview, and the chapters should be the right ones.

Actual behavior

When accessing a Novel Updates title, some of the chapters are missing, and the ones that do work link to totally different novels. I'm really not sure what's causing this. It works fine in webview

I have the same problem,
Chapter list not displayed correctly, and every time I opened the page, it always opened a random chapter from a random unrelated novel instead of the one I was opening. It is consistently happening with all novelupdates links I have in my library. Webview or via browser (outside of app) works perfectly fine.
On LNReader v2.0.0, novelupdates v.0.9.1

Edit:
Turns out it was Novelupdates anti-bot mechanism, I don't know how it works, but perhaps if I fetched a lot of links in a short period of time, it will not redirect to correct link. I noticed if I used the 'show all chapters' links, it always leads to nonsensical destinations, but if I clicked the chapter links from 'latest release' links, it worked perfectly fine, opening the correct links. (At least when I tested it this past hour.

As hiroki0211 mentionned, the issue can be replicated pretty easily. However it doesn't work with LNReader, as I think it grabs chapters from the all chapters section.
