This Text Adventure Game is Totally Poisonous

It’s over!

The moment I finished writing the extra chapter yesterday, I suddenly felt like a heavy burden had been lifted.

No matter what, it finally lived up to everyone's expectations and presented the story envisioned in the initial outline in a relatively complete manner (well, all the pitfalls that can be thought of should have been basically filled, except for some weird ones, Such as degradation stone or something...)

Thanks to the editor-in-chief Biscuit, and editor Kaguya (the first editor who brought me to Qidian. Unfortunately, Kaguya resigned)

Thanks to Biscuit Dad and the editor of Midnight Supper for getting the final recommendation for this book.

Thanks to Operations Officer Aqiang, thanks to the four leaders of this book, black eyes, bookworm who loves chocolate, book friend 20230111205824753, murderer like a lazy sheep, thanks to all the book friends who have accompanied me along the way.

From the publication of the book on June 24, 2022, to the completion on April 20, 2024, it took nearly two years, 3.08 million words, an average of 4,700 words per day, which seems not too small, but in fact, the period with more updates is mainly concentrated In the early stage, the later updates were very expensive, with a daily guarantee of 4,000, and there would be fixed "time loop" updates once or twice a month.

In this regard, I feel very sorry for the readers who have been following the latest updates. I can feel the pain of pursuing reading, so when I have the opportunity in the future, I will try my best to persuade my book friends to keep reading, and I never dare to ask for monthly tickets or anything else. , I am really grateful to everyone for your continued tolerance and support. The useless author bows to everyone!

Then let’s talk about the book itself.

Let me first report on the results. When this book was first published, the results were very dismal. At that time, 'word games' and 'word adventures' were not hot words. This strange title would hardly interest the readers of Qidian. , there are single-digit collections every day, so that after writing 100,000 words, there are only less than 200 collections, which can be said to be miserable.

But even at that time, I never thought about eunuchs. First, there was not much financial pressure at the time. I wrote this book more out of interest. I thought that regardless of whether anyone would read it, I would just finish the book first. The other is that I think that although the early content has some flaws, the basic framework rhythm should be fine.

When it was 100,000 words, it was finally put on the test market for the first time. The collection suddenly exploded. After four rounds of PK, it advanced all the way and finally reached Sanjiang. The first order was 3,100 when it was put on the shelves. The highest order was 67,000 in the final stage, and all orders were 17,000. As This is the first book for a newcomer from Qidian. In terms of results, I dare not expect more. More importantly, I have finished a full novel.

From the early stage of crossing the river by feeling the stones, to experiencing ups and downs in the process, after actually finishing the book, I looked back and gained new insights into many things.

If I were to go back and rewrite it now, I would definitely handle it better in terms of rhythm and details, but it might also become more routine, and I might lose the original spirit of being unconstrained and able to pick up anything at my fingertips. Who knows, it is impossible to do it again...

Talking back to the book, I personally feel quite Buddhist in terms of achievements and updates, but the content itself is actually a bit ambitious.

In the end, Mu Ling's appearance, the four abilities her daughter inherited, and the light group civilization that appeared at the end can actually be regarded as hooks for future works.

In the original expectation, the stone disks flying to millions of planets were not all of one kind, but were divided into many strange types, representing completely different world views.

And the 'gu' cultivated by these worldviews through the reincarnation of species will eventually gather in that higher civilization to build a larger and more complete independent universe... (Of course, this is just a possibility, in fact, the eight characters have not yet been written. , I just said that if I have the opportunity in the future, I will work hard in this direction)

Then let’s talk about the new book.

The new book will still be in the urban martial arts genre, this time it is a story about a ‘mirror’.

The outline of the new book has actually been prepared piecemeal in the final stage of the book. At present, there is a rough skeleton, but there are still a lot of details that need to be filled in.

In any case, I am really exhausted physically and mentally after writing a book. I will give myself a month off first. This month is not only a process of rest, but also a process of studying and re-enriching myself.

Then I started to seriously design the new book, filling in the worldview background, setting details, character details, plot arrangements... there was a lot of work to be done.

I am the type who thinks about the ending from the first chapter, and then works backwards from the ending to the beginning step by step, so that the whole story does not feel fragmented. There may be some seemingly inexplicable content in the middle of the story. But at the end, the reader suddenly realizes that this is a complete story.

Then there is the deposit of manuscripts, a large number of manuscripts. It is becoming more and more important to update the starting point. My daily output is definitely not enough, so I can only make it by depositing manuscripts. It is expected that I will save at least 200,000-300,000 manuscripts before publishing the book. The more manuscripts I deposit, the more I feel. Be confident.

Adding up these scattered things, it is estimated that the actual release of the book will not be until August. It seems like a long time, but for me, time is actually quite tight. It will be early August. Regardless of whether it is ready or not, a single chapter will definitely be released to explain the situation, or it may be earlier. If possible, everyone will keep the book on the bookshelf for a while.

There are always various shortcomings in reality, at least in the story, everything should be as perfect as possible without regrets, so Mu You's ending is perfect. He fulfilled his destiny, retired successfully, had a wife and daughter, was doing his favorite career, had his best friends by his side, and his favorite person was right in front of him.

In short, Mu You's story is about to come to an end here.

A short separation is for a better encounter, and a new story is quietly setting sail. I wish you all a smooth journey during this journey, and you will still be a young man when you return. (End of this chapter)
