Originally, before it was put on the shelves, readers were promised 6k-1k daily updates after it was put on the shelves. However, because I took the provincial exam in March and have been busy until now, I only maintained single updates without interruption, but could not maintain double updates.
Here, I would like to apologize to the readers.
In fact, creating long-form slow-motion novels, especially niche genres, is not only a test of writing skills, writing style, rhythm, knowledge, etc., but also a test of the author's patience.
Obviously, I did it, but it was not enough, so it was serialized for half a year and only 700,000 words were updated.
The shortcomings of group portrait streaming are also obvious in the current online writing market, which is the loss of a sense of immersion.
The Laite line, Luojie line, Hope Church line, Yin Fante line, Giant and Dark Night Church line, plus the Sugra line that has always been in the dark, are actually very energy-consuming but have little effect.
I have prepared more than 10,000 words for the collection of character files and foreshadowing alone, plus the mythological and historical background, world history, steam age ranking system, magic world ranking system, ranking god system, and ranking monster system, the total is no less than 30,000 words. Word outline.
Moreover, I have integrated and modified the above systems many times, and finally established a worldview worth writing millions of words.
In terms of characters, Laite, who was in a confused state at the beginning, did have unpleasant behavior in the plot when he met the "unintentional person".
But I want to shape a result called "growth" from a reasonable aspect as much as possible.
That is, the previous confusion and weakness become rational and strong, and finally the protagonist obtains the seven sequence cores, is promoted to demigod, and finally becomes a god with the "blessing" of the Creator.
This is indeed not as good as the experience that fast-paced articles bring to readers, but it can be regarded as a little thought of mine.
As for the other characters, in terms of shaping the group portraits, I wanted to be as reasonable as possible, and I set up a lot of foreshadowing and interactions in the dark and bright lines.
To do this, I keep a dozen files open every day while writing, ready to use.
The first volume generally revolves around the divine discovery rights in the Silent Highlands. It is from the perspective of the upper and lower levels of the military, the perspective of the lost, the perspective of civilians, and other organizational perspectives. I want to show everyone's attitude towards a goal through different perspectives as much as possible, so as to Explain the core of the first volume.
That is, how difficult it is to rebuild "order" and how easy it is to collapse.
In the second and third volumes, after experiencing a series of events, the protagonist will reach new heights, and at the same time, the sequential god part and the magic potion part that were rarely mentioned before in this article will become the main part.
Because, in the Zine Empire, which focuses on military affairs, extraordinary things themselves may be ignored. Coupled with the low "perspective" caused by low status, it is impossible for the protagonist to touch the existence of high stages in the early stage.
I tried to build a fantasy, magnificent, and complete world, but I sacrificed some things in terms of rhythm and lacked it.
The tone of the first volume is confusion, pain, and struggling to find hope. Then the second volume will be about progress and dawn. In the third and fourth volumes, hope will emerge. The last few volumes will be completely bright. The presence.
By the way, I would like to promise readers that the goal of updating to 4 million words will not waver and will never be compromised.
Even if I’m a eunuch, I can’t even read a book!
To be honest, writing is very tiring, but very happy.
My original idea of writing this wasteland novel came from the anime "Wolf's Rain". The steampunk wasteland world and the feeling of finding hope in a desperate atmosphere attracted me.
In addition, after watching some anime over the years, such as "The Last Fire", "Lord of the Mysterious", "Mysterious Earthsea", etc., the full tone of the fantasy-Cthulhu-Wasteland was finally established.
But I also know that my current subject matter selection and writing style are indeed far away from the market. It can be regarded as the "dream" work of a "literary youth", just like the original poems I have written many times in my articles.
Over the past year or so, I have encountered many setbacks, including being defrauded in employment, family changes, etc., so I came up with the idea of venting my emotions, so many places in the article contain my personal thoughts.
All in all, after being on the shelves for three months, this book has only received 3,700 collections and 50 orders including friendly orders. The results are not very good.
And because the results are indeed very poor, it naturally rarely gets exposure, but even so, there are still more than a dozen readers who subscribe to it, and several brothers urge for updates.
But I still haven't given up. I want to be worthy of the dreams in my heart and a fantasy and beautiful world.
Here, I will learn more about the rhythm of popular articles, add more knowledge about literature, history, science and technology mysteries, etc., and try my best to avoid bugs and logical flaws.
I still want to say sorry to the readers.
After being busy with the provincial exams during this period, I came to Ksta County to report in the past two days. I had a bit of altitude sickness today and really didn’t have the heart to continue the plot, so I updated my thoughts.
After all, the article written by Haohunhuhu needs to be refined in the future, which is very troublesome and provides a very poor experience for readers.
Finally, I want to make a plan. The first volume is expected to be one million words long, and all the foreshadowings and hidden and bright lines will burst out in a concentrated manner, just like the rhythm of many anime movies.
After I settle down here, I will try to get into the rhythm of 6k updates a day. Even if I don’t reach the average booking target and have full attendance, I will not stop updating or give up!
Here, I will end by writing an original poem related to the article, based on the fictional character "Gulji" in the article.
"The light of the long night has dawned."
"The dawn of the bloody night will eventually come."
"Silent mankind is no longer confused."
"The proud gods bow their heads."
"Under steam, within magic, beyond belief."
"The existence in the dream of the Creator of all things."
"We are all looking forward to a new future!"
