It's something that's supposed to be written in October, but it's late because of all the things going on.

I call it a summary because I'm not good at thinking about a title, and it's usually difficult for me to name a chapter every time I write an article, so let's call it a summary. In fact, it is a summary of various emotions in my own writing since I wrote "Dark Moon Era" (hereinafter referred to as "Dark Moon").

What's the first thing I want to say? It was "Dark Moon" that has long since deviated from the original "Dark Moon" that I envisioned, and it can be said that it is no longer the original "Dark Moon".

As an author, I don't want to hide it from everyone, but my personal favorite is the opening 30 chapters.

And those thirty or so chapters are failures from the report card of the online text, well.

According to various data and surveys, there are very, very many readers who are blocked by the first 30 or so chapters, and all kinds of negative comments are endless.

It made me wonder if I had conceived a story of failure?! And my personal reading vision, has there been an extreme deviation?

In this mood, "Dark Moon" deviated from the original.

So what was Dark Moon that I built in the first place? I said I wanted to write an article like "Attack on Titan".

This is the original intention.

Therefore, in my conception, the original "Dark Moon" will thoroughly implement the style of suppressing the darkness, and hope that in the darkness is a looming light, it exists but is far away, and when you approach, it is extremely likely to disappear.

Warmth is the most precious gem in this world, and it is satisfying to hold a small piece in your hand.

In that "Dark Moon", there will never be a Raptors squad, all my teammates are in the dark in my arrangement, and I have already seen through the negativity of human nature, and there is only a trace of naïve people.

And the role of Su Xiao is not warm, he has a full purpose, and after the purpose is his complex feelings for Tang Ling....

Tang Ling is a person who chases hope, but also an indifferent person who is oppressed by hatred.

All of this has deviated and become the current "Dark Moon".

It's just that the attentive reader can see some clues from it.... For example, the Raptors' emotional handling is blunt.

Readers who know me well know that I can control my feelings, and this kind of bluntness is really a bit strange.

Here, even if it's explained. Because it was "Dark Moon" that reversed course.

It's hard for me to say if this change is good or bad? In writing, I have always been humble and even inferior, learning and adjusting myself.

In any case, the first thirty or so chapters can be regarded as making me willful. It also made me learn that kind of writing is really not suitable for online articles, if it is not in an absolutely quiet and concentrated state, the thirty or so chapters will be unreadable.

It sacrificed the plot (it is said to be an old-fashioned plot), sacrificed the purpose (at the beginning, except for escaping, there was no purpose), sacrificed the world view (evaluated as the world view is rough), and even sacrificed all the cool points, even the golden finger was suppressed, just to build an atmosphere.

The contrast is "Attack on Titan".

This kind of article is indeed difficult for people to see, and online articles also have the general environment and rules of online articles.

And I forgot that "Attack on Titan" is a manga, and the animation that makes it successful is to show the picture more directly, so as to avoid the shortcomings of the text.

I see it all as a learning process.

Readers who know me well know that I am an author who challenges himself along the way.

From "The Years I Was a Taoist" to "The Secret Story of Mountains and Seas", the style is undergoing a great change, and after three years of putting aside my pen, I began to write "The Dark Moon Era", which is another great change.

I can't say I'm a unique challenger, but I'm happy, I'm always moving forward, I'm always accumulating.

And I have always believed that one day I will be able to write what I really want and that will be accepted and recognized by everyone.

Because there is no author who does not need recognition, I have not yet reached the point where I don't need readers, I just need self-appreciation.

Although, I have always had my own 'ambitions' and dreams when it comes to writing.

What I want to tell you is that I am studying and learning to adapt to the environment while still being able to write what I want, which is a difficult balance, but it is good to work hard.

And "Dark Moon" has been written to this day, what I still want to tell you is, what kind of story is "Dark Moon"?

Although I say that "Dark Moon" has deviated from its original beginning, it is only the tone of the story and the characters that have deviated.

The story structure has not changed, and there are two most important points that have not changed.

The first point is the handling of the plot.

People who read "Dark Moon" to this day will find a book that is almost two million words, and the protagonist has not yet been upgraded to a first-order Purple Moon Warrior.

Will you think that I will be too ruthless to suppress the upgrade?

The answer I give is no.

I didn't suppress the upgrade, because the level of the book exists, just to build a world view, but it is not the main color around the main character.

Whether the protagonist is upgraded or not revolves around the plot.

I'll use an analogy, if the protagonist has more things to do at the age of 15, then there are more lines around his age, and the upgrade comes naturally in the event, but because there are many events and the time is short, the protagonist must not be able to upgrade too much.

And if there are fewer things that happen to the protagonist at this stage of the year, then there will not be many words surrounding him at this stage, but as time passes, the protagonist has risen several levels.

When I say this, you may understand that this is the so-called plot flow, the escalation is downplayed by me, and the experience of the protagonist, one event after another, is the way "Dark Moon" is depicted.

In fact, it is undoubtedly better to write around upgrades.

The reason for this is that the purpose of upgrading is stronger, and it will be easier for the author to write a long online article if it is cut into one 'segmented purpose' after another.

For example, what do I need to upgrade at this stage, I will start a series of stories around what, so that the plot tightly surrounds the upgrade, at least for new authors, at least it can save some effort to overcome the problem of writing collapse, and if the pen is stronger, it can also pave some interesting branches within the backbone to increase the attractiveness.

I'm a starting point, and I'm a newcomer, and my past achievements have to be put aside. Therefore, I have also seriously considered the writing of this kind of insurance, the plot flow is difficult to control after all, not to mention that this is still a soft science fiction, it is a long one! It's not urban, and it's harder to write.

But in the end, I chose the plot flow, for no other reason, which honed me more.

The second thing that has remained the same is that Dark Moon is an open-ended story.

What do you say about this openness? That is to say, I have magnified my worldview to an extremely long timeline, and I will treat it as if it were a real era.

And throughout a person's life, how can they go through an era?

This statement is somewhat abstract, so if it is not abstract, I will use a Japanese anime to illustrate it, although it cannot be fully explained.

This anime is Battlestar.

This is a cartoon that I watched very, very much when I was a child (certainly no revealing age, I'm only 18 years old, but I have a lot of experience).

It is divided into three parts, what is it about? It tells the story of three generations of resistance to alien invasion.

The protagonist of each part is different, and to this day I still remember that the protagonist of the first part is called 'Rick', and there is a second female named 'Akemi'....

When I watched the second part, I was dumbfounded, where did Rick go?

When I say this, I don't mean that "Dark Moon" will become like there are several protagonists, but "Dark Moon" revolves around a beginning, around Tang Ling, the character who created this beginning.

It's like the first part of "Battlestar", well, after thinking about it, it's also like "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", its ending is just the ending of a character Guo Jing growing up to a stage.

After it, isn't there still "Condor" and "Yitian"?

In my vision, the book aims to complete a worldview, and I can directly use this worldview to start a new story in the future.

My idea for this worldview is that other authors want to use it in the future, so it's welcome.

I just want everything in the book to be as close to reality as possible.

It's kind of a romanticism of my own.

So at this point, people who are sensitive to writing should understand what I'm talking about, what does openness mean?

And, even if I had chosen, the book was structured in this way, which could only be written as a plot flow.

Actually, there are still too many experiences and emotions about writing "Dark Moon", but I found that I couldn't finish talking to you for a while.

In the future, I will continue to write such things so that I can communicate with you.

Because I myself am at a loss in many places and need answers.

In the end, "Dark Moon" skyrocketed in September, and then continues to grow until now, and you can't do without everyone's support here.

There are also many readers who insist on chasing "Dark Moon" and give me a sentence of 'this book is good', and I am also very pleased, thank you for your return to give affirmation.

I'm still the same sentence, I'm always learning, looking forward to progress, I'll write well.

Just like this time, from the end of February to the beginning of the book, I have written almost two million words in the eight months now, which is a huge breakthrough for me, which was unimaginable before.

In short, thank you all for your company and support.

Especially for the old book lovers who followed me from the beginning, without your initial encouragement, it is hard for me to imagine that my glass heart would have been able to hold on.

Then, I have to talk to you about the reason why the update has been unstable during this time.

It's a bit long to say, but to put it simply, I'm preparing the script for "Mountains and Seas".

This incident has experienced many setbacks, and it is impossible to describe them one by one.

But this time, if nothing else, it should be able to go smoothly.

As for the script, I am a newcomer, and I have to meet and run in with the team often.

I am very glad that many of this team are fans of Taoist priests and mountains and seas, and they respect the story itself very much.

As for myself, I really don't want everything to be changed beyond recognition, so thank you for meeting this team.

But at first, I was more careful.

According to the assumption, the mountains and seas are the first online movies, after all, I also need to test the waters, in order to be responsible for the work, I want to see what effect I will present for the first time when I am in charge of screenwriting?

If it's not good, don't beat me up with the old fans of Shanhai.

That one.... What, the production of online movies can't be compared with theaters, you understand. But the story itself promises not to disappoint.

Then, there will be online dramas and theaters. Of course, there will be a lot of changes in this aspect of the online drama, but it is still up to me to write the revisions.

In short, this is a long and heavy series of work, especially initially, there are a lot of places that need to be run-in and collide, and the time of my update is not guaranteed to be stable.

Actually, I don't want to talk about this, but this time I want to tell you that I want to be really close to completion.

But I don't want everyone to wait for irregular updates (quantity and quality, Sansan can still give you basic guarantees at this stage), so that everyone seems a little innocent.

Knowing why, I don't think everyone will be so insecure as they wait.

And after that, if my update time is very late, I won't send a special late update notice, because I decided to explain it to you here at one time.

It is recommended that you save up every two days to watch it, so that you don't have to wait.

Finally, I want to tell you that in a few days, probably from the 10th to the 15th, I may ask for leave, but I will try my best not to ask for leave, even if I can do a more...

The reason is that in the event of demolition, it is necessary to move to the land of the ancestral grave, everyone understands, I won't say much, I can't help but deal with this matter....

Well, that's all there is to say.

In fact, although I am tired, I am also very happy to be able to talk so much to everyone, just like an old friend chatting, and I accidentally lost 4000 words? Can you update a chapter?
