The Righteous Player(s) - Chapter 957

[long end-of-volume summary]

Four hundred and seventy-five chapters, a nine-month update – the second volume of this book [The Book of the Sky Train] has finally come to an end.

This also marks that the player has officially passed two-thirds of the book.

As Annan smashes his six mirrors in turn and finds the light in the mirror, the real light of the sky is about to hatch –

in short, the next volume of Annan should complete the sublimation ceremony.

A little forewarning, the length of the third volume should be slightly shorter than the second volume.

In other words, if you start writing in mid-March, you should be able to finish the book before the Spring Festival.

The next book has also taken shape, and my friends all said that it is liked (thumbs up),

but after this book is written, Amao will definitely not publish a new book immediately, but will take a break for a while, adjust his schedule and take out Exercise (presumably saving manuscripts is difficult to complete).

But certainly not later than the end of March next year.

There are still nine months left for this book—maybe less, maybe a little more, depending on whether there is a sudden inspiration that makes me suddenly feel that a certain nightmare is so awesome that I need to write it even if I add a plug.

If this is the case, then it is inevitable to continue a small section.

After all, you must also like to watch it (sincerely).

The main stage of the next volume is the United Kingdom and the Ecclesiastical Nation, as well as a small amount of otherworldly plot.

By the way, yesterday I saw someone say that this book is rather bland…and rightfully so.

Because the initial positioning of this book (or all of Qi Miaomiao’s original worldview works) is based on the concept of “a travelogue of a magical world”.

All my books so far are based on “setting” as the main axis and “short stories” as flesh and blood, rationalizing and logicalizing a novel worldview.

Compared with the blood of Mercury, which was quite blunt back then, now I have mastered the skills of inserting plots in the process of throwing the setting…

The reason for adopting this way of writing is that Ah Mao is very pushy – when I read the book myself, I felt that the ups and downs of the magnificent climax, if I couldn’t finish it in one breath, I would be stuck for several days. It’s especially uncomfortable not to go up or down…

but I believe that I shouldn’t be able to explode (akimbo).

And the subject matter of the book I write is the type that can’t be updated.

If you accidentally explode too much, there may be some strange bugs.

Of course, this can also be regarded as a kind of self-healing, not so market-oriented.

However, I have been focusing on writing self-healing essays for six or seven years, and I can write well and earn money, so I don’t think there is any problem in continuing this self-healing road.

When readers are tired of seeing the same big fish and big meat, and come back to eat a small cucumber with a novel taste, they will occasionally feel refreshed.

On another note, I still remember some readers often asking why there is so little story about the player.

Part of the reason for this, I have already said in my testimonials in the first volume – if the player has too many stories, it is very easy to collapse.

The essence of that is actually a funny article, and the cat is too serious, I really want to write that kind of thing, but I can’t…

About four or five months before this book opened, I had a dinner with other authors. Time, the definition of the player element in this book is “adjustment”.

The Misty Continent is actually a desperate style similar to Quicksilver’s Farns world, and if you remove the player, it can make the plot more fluid — or more flammable, but the readability will undoubtedly be much lower.

The role of the player in this book is

to pull readers out with a gag when they are about to sink into the world.

This is a skill I heard from Uncle Ko when I chatted with him before-how to calmly tell a tragedy without making the reader saddened?

The answer is to keep the stage distance.

Let the reader be aware of “that’s a story that is far away from you” at all times, without being immersed in it.

If it is a tragedy that is too close, for example, a tragedy that happens beside oneself and is played by relatives and friends, it will make people unable to help but feel sad.

The short mother-in-law and daughter-in-law dramas among parents actually use this effect to “grab their hearts”.

But I don’t like the kind of plot that makes people feel sad after watching it.

Telling stories and singing operas persuade people.

I started with the first word from the top down, and that’s the philosophy I hold.

Even if I don’t understand any profound truth when I read the book, but when I think about it, I can “seem to understand something” in a flash.

The heavy and solemn tragedy does have its artistic value and is very high, but when readers open this book with the attitude of “Let’s take a look at it and relax”, they are overwhelmed by heavy despair— – I think it’s also a form of fraud.

Therefore, the reading experience must be taken into account.

I was quite fond of hair knives during the mercury period.

But the more I write, the more constrained my hands and feet are, and I dare not make a knife, which is exactly the reason.

There are some characters that I actually wanted to kill, but considering the reading experience and the readers’ accumulated feelings for the characters, I couldn’t bear to start.

In the end, it was only possible to start a new storyline to make it invisible – somewhat saving a life.

A strange analogy…like killing a pet in front of the owner’s eyes.

I think the psychological impact that the reader feels when he cuts off an important character who is “loved” from the heart of the reader probably converges to this level.

He is heavier than a device, but lighter than a person.

But he will always be remembered.

Maybe it’s the tenderness left in the cat’s heart…

Finally, there have been a lot of people asking in the past few days.

Here is a unified reiteration of the fan attitude of this book – the attitude is welcome!

After all, I’m the same person myself.

Whether it is a fanart or a fanart, as long as it does not violate relevant laws and regulations, it is very welcome here.

As long as you don’t make commercial profits and show the source, you don’t need to ask me for my opinion. Asking is welcome.

After the player’s book is finished, I don’t mind if someone wants to use the player’s worldview to directly write a fandom and put it on the shelves at the starting point, as long as the source is indicated.

The reason why I want to finish this book is because I don’t want to explain the settings that haven’t come out yet, but I don’t want to see you being slapped in the face by me…

It’s time to code.

Finally, the closing words of this volume.

The appearance of the [Book of the Sky Train] marks the re-opening of the door to the Light Realm.

The next and last volume is, [The Expedition to the Sky].
