The next day, there was no news about the progress of the review of the novel "Breaking the Sky", and Gojing Akiyama sent a light novel file to Yuu Kamiya's mailbox. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Automata

Tell the story of a world where humans and intelligent machines coexist, after the war of intelligent machinery mutiny, the earth has become a wasteland, intelligent machinery and human beings have not reproduced the prosperity of human beings, the relationship between humans and intelligent machines has become quite complicated, although most humans hate intelligent machines, but without the help of intelligent machines, they simply cannot live in the wasteland environment.

Against this backdrop, a young scientist begins to study and explore this complex relationship, passing through unfamiliar cities and witnessing the complex stories that take place between humans and machines.

The overall story style is quite dark, it doesn't feel like a light novel, and the story that the protagonist passes by in a city or participates in or experiences as a bystander is quite interesting and has a certain depth, if it weren't for the lack of knowledge and professionalism of the novel and the emphasis on plot elements, Yuto Kamiya would have almost thought that this is a science fiction novel that explores humans and intelligent machines.

Akiyama Gojing has probably already completed this part of the novel and sent it after the support of Yu Kamiya, and at the same time, traces of careful revision can be seen from the novel, and it is he who integrates the novel experience he gained when he became an editor into this light novel, and maintains the core of the novel's insistence. For example, the female protagonist is an intelligent machine in the form of a human loli.,Picked up by the male protagonist and grew up with him.,And use your own strength to protect the life safety of the male owner.。

In fact,This intelligent machine in the form of a human Lori is the "original rebel",Awaken the self and spread this virus to the intelligent machinery all over the world.,Part of the purpose of accompanying the male protagonist is to collect these "self" that are just viruses for intelligent machines.,Begin to understand the definition of intelligent machines and humans.。

If it weren't for the theme of a light novel, then it would be more appropriate to describe this intelligent machine in the form of a human loli as a regular intelligent machine.

The "Mechanical Age" sent over is only three volumes in total, 480,000 words, and judging by the plot and length, it should only be the beginning of the novel. After reading this novel, Yu Kamiya sincerely admired in his heart, as a light novel, the quality may not be as good as "The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya", and the depth and fun of the plot are similar to "Chino's Journey" and it is even better.

In today's light novel environment in District 11, it must be a rare masterpiece.

"The wasteland environment, you can refer to the previous world's 2060 vision of the wasteland environment, now my consciousness is not mature, but it is also much stronger than hand-drawing, an average of about ten drawings a month can be practiced without spending much effort, can not delay the creation of "Rebellious Lelouch" storyboard, but [BiuBiuBiu] over there will stop uploading." Yu Kamiya, who was watching the "Automata" novel on the computer in his office, touched his chin and thought about it for a long time, the writing of "Automata" was okay, and a wasteland environment was depicted in just a few sentences, and Yuu Kamiya, as an illustrator, had to refine the author's ideas according to the atmosphere depicted in the text.

The first volume has 150,000 words in total and requires about ten illustrations.

"First of all, it's the cover illustration.,Although the plot of the novel is generally rigorous.,It's better to use the Lori heroine as the main cover content here.,No matter how good the novel is,,It's useless if no one reads it.。 Yu Kamiya closed the reading page of the novel, opened the computer software used for painting, and slowly closed his eyes and recalled the world depicted by Gosei Akiyama's words.

Most light novel illustrations are the same as comics that don't need to be colored.,Illustrations will be a lot more troublesome to color.,Of course, the visual effects will be a lot better.。 Yu Kamiya doesn't have a special feeling about this, in his eyes, only colored illustrations can be considered illustrations, and only the content that the illustrations want to express can be fully displayed.

On the computer, the drawing software began to operate wildly, the consciousness invaded the system and caused the CPU to overclock the operation, and the computer case came from the high-speed beeping sound of the fan spinning, and the excessive sound made people suspect that the computer case was in danger of exploding at any time.

The overall structure of the illustration, modeling, refining, shading, coloring, ・・・・・・

In less than half an hour, a beautiful full-length illustration has been displayed in front of the screen, the cover of which shows a beautiful young girl caressing a destroyed machine, her eyes are confused and sad, and behind her the young scientist who is the protagonist has her back to her and looks up at the sky, and the background of the illustration is the ruins of a ruined city. The image of the girl is the girly version of Lori, which caters to a certain plot of the novel.

After finishing the illustration, Yu Kamiya opened his eyes and exhaled, looking at his work on the screen with satisfaction: "Give this prototype to Akiyama first, and when you are satisfied, you will continue in this style." ”

・・・・・・

"Ding-dong." The sound of an email from the computer speaker interrupted Akiyama's work, and while reviewing the manuscript in his hand, he glanced at the content of the email and said to himself: "Kamiya's email, I will finish the novel so quickly." He sent the novel to Kamiya Yu and received a reply in less than half a day, this reading speed is really not something that ordinary people can have, but he may not know that the amount of content that reads 500,000 words in half a day is only at the average level of the Chinese online text next door, and the reading speed that Kamiya Yu has is still exercised as an online reader before.

Akiyama Gojing put down the manuscript in his hand, opened the email, and sure enough, he saw a long review of the novel from Yu Kamiya, there were admiration and some constructive suggestions that made Akiyama Gojing think deeply, and the level of the long review alone amazed him as the editor-in-chief of the light novel, and these opinions pointed out the shortcomings of his novels and the shortcomings that he could not see.

Seeing the end, he noticed the document called "Novel Cover Illustration Sample", and Gokuni Akiyama was stunned.

After reading the novel, write a long review, and draw the illustrations・・・・・・

"No~"

He muttered a sentence and downloaded this document.,Just opened a pair of exquisite novel cover illustrations jumped in front of him.,The style of painting he is very familiar with is the illustration style that belongs to Kamiya Yuu.,It's just that the exquisiteness of the cover illustration really startled him.,Judging from the image of the cover character, this is the custom illustration of "Machine Age".,There is a slight difference from his conception.,But there's no doubt that this is the best character and scene he thought of in his heart about this novel.,Unexpected in all senses.。

"How can it be so fast..." Akiyama Goki's head is as messy as paste, and it only takes half a day to send the novel, even if he reads the novel in two hours and writes a long review in one hour, he only has two hours to finish the painting, so can he complete such a beautiful cover illustration in two hours? According to Akiyama's understanding of the profession of a painter, it takes at least a week for an artist to complete such a difficult painting.

"How the hell did it happen... Forget it, don't be surprised if anything happens when it comes to Kamiya." Akiyama Wujing patted his forehead and sighed in a tone of affirmative helplessness.
