New Month's Update Plan and This Month's Debt Repayment Situation, as Well as some Gossip and Tips to Thank You
First, the report on debt repayment and overdue updates.
The total number of words updated this month is 210,000.
Excluding the 186,000 words of the guaranteed update this month, the debt repayment is 24,000 words, which is about 12 chapters.
The number of monthly tickets increased this month is 288, and the new overdue updates are counted as 3 chapters.
The total reward this month is 63.66 yuan, which is not enough for one chapter to be added. Add the total reward of 88 yuan from last month, which is counted as one new chapter of overdue updates.
This month is set at 1199, and the integer is taken. According to the long-term overdue update rules, 12 chapters will be added.
The new overdue updates are 16 chapters.
At the end of last month, a total of 47 chapters were owed, 94,000 words.
After paying off 12 chapters, there are still 51 chapters of debt, 102,000 words, including the new overdue updates.
The above...
The debt has not decreased but increased...
Well, there is a plan for the situation where the debt cannot be repaid before the book is completed.
If there is still a debt after the book is finished, a free extra chapter will be updated as repayment.
The estimated plan is that there will be about 10,000 words of free extra chapters updated every week, which may be less than this number, but it will be updated until the debt is paid off. (There will be updates within at least two days)
The extra chapter plan has been made and is roughly divided into three parts.
1. Ancestors' past:
The main part is the description of the behavior styles of the ancestors who have appeared in the text. Of course, there is no need to worry that I copied the game background... because there is basically nothing to copy... Today I saw a comment from a book friend, saying that I copied a lot of the game plot...
I am wronged...
But I am actually a little happy...
This part I created will be mistaken by the readers as copied, which is probably a different kind of praise.
It was already clear in the first chapter that the plot in the game had collapsed after Bul-Kathos appeared.
After all, there is no part in the game plot where Malthael went to find Kanai's magic box, nor is there a part where Malthael devoured the Great Demon and his brothers.
There is no Malthael who has become a "Nephalem-like" existence.
Among all the Barbarian ancestors who appeared, only Leko has no information about his existence... She also has a role that only she can play...
Because it involves spoilers, let's not talk about it for now.
As for the names of other ancestors, most of them come from the Barbarian's skill descriptions and equipment descriptions.
For example, Kol of the Fury of Hidden Peak, Banar of the Fury of Berserker, Orak of the Blade of the God of War, etc. They are just names on equipment or skills in the game.
I want them to really live and exist in this world at a certain time in the past, and leave a legend.
These creations were placed in the plot and were evaluated as "dragging". So I rarely write about the past of these ancestors in the subsequent plots.
And these pasts will become part of the extra.
These are the characters I created after sorting out the list and based on the original words.
Of course, there are book friends who are particular about the plot, but most of the book friends questioned that there were discrepancies with the game plot. I gave explanations as to why it became like this in the promotion of the plot. (Maybe there are some things I didn't notice)
I can honestly say that the characters in this story are only constructed by me based on the plot of Diablo III and American comics.
Whether it is the purpose and different positions of the archangels, or the cooperation of the demon kings of hell in their calculations.
Even the purposes of various forces have consumed a lot of my energy.
During the period when the High Heaven was under the control of the Angris Council, there was only one incompatible existence, that is, Tyrael.
He is just, so noble.
But what exactly does it mean to violate the iron law of the High Heaven in the mouth of Imprus? This is not told in the game. And Tyrael's actions are obviously not so "just".
So I gave my design, that is, the iron law of the High Heaven is to protect those who can be more terrible than demons with a slight change.
Because of violating the iron law of the High Heaven, Tyrael made a move that was inconsistent with justice, detonating the World Stone and blowing up Mount Arreat into a deep pit.
I believe that I have no moral shortcomings, and I often reflect on some seemingly minor mistakes.
But there are still a lot of malice in my heart, but fortunately, these are only at the level of malice.
For this reason, I gave these archangels with human nature a guarantee.
Who can remain unchanged forever? How can these angels be noble forever without guarantees?
And it was not until the recent chapters that Uldyssian, the protagonist of the War of Original Sin, was mentioned, which also marked the beginning of the true revelation of the protagonist's "secret".
The main line of the protagonist has never been "recovering memories and achieving soul integrity", but only if he has done these, can he do what he wants to do.
This is also what was mentioned at the beginning.
And this part is the reason for the existence of Uldyssian in the War of Original Sin.
The part involving the War of Original Sin will also be placed in the extra chapter of this part.
2. Some incomplete and interesting content in the plot:
To be honest, the recent update on the Joker is the part I am more satisfied with.
But there are some things that are not described in detail, such as how the Joker drove Billy crazy and made the King of Lies give up thinking.
And how the comedian, as a guy who knows everything, manages to survive and avoid the sweep of death.
There's also some fun-looking stuff with Nick Fury staying on the moon.
Even in the original outline, I prepared content such as "Swallowing Star Blood Nest", although I deleted it in the end...
These will probably be released slowly in the extras.
In the original outline, there were several ideas that I deleted or temporarily postponed, such as the plot of Task Force
I've been thinking about this type of content for a long time, but still haven't made up my mind.
Of course, there are also some that I directly rejected. Because it seems a bit inconsistent with the overall main line and tone of the story...
These will also be part of the extras.
3. The mental journey of some characters:
Many characters are changing. As the plot progresses, I mostly tell everyone who has undergone what changes. Although there is some foreshadowing, this kind of foreshadowing only "informs" the changes.
Like the Orak-ification of Jessica Jones…
Luke Cage becomes the kind of warrior Madoc wanted him to be...
Natasha and Hawkeye's change in attitude towards SHIELD...
Tony's thoughts on the line between science and the occult...
This type of content will probably be described as a side story.
There are a lot of characters on the stage, I admit that, because I didn’t do a good job in selecting and choosing, and some characters’ roles suddenly became more important, mostly because I hoped that there would really be such a person.
I still can't bear to let them become a symbol or a name...
The biggest advantage of the American comic genre is that when the author mentions a certain superhero, everyone already has an understanding of him, so most of the time he doesn’t need to shape this person’s character.
First, it reduces the space required to create characters, and second, there is no need to introduce characters. Even based on these characters, the plot and context of the story are clearly visible.
I don't really like this way of writing.
So the plot points I chose are all slightly less popular.
For example, characters such as Hellboy and Blood Queen, Crossbones Rumlow, Helsing, and General Ross the Red Giant...
For example, the plot of the birth of Iron Man would have tens of thousands of words if written, so I just mentioned it.
Because everyone is so familiar with these, I want to show you something different.
Obviously, I failed. If nothing else, just reading these data and going crazy can explain the problem.
But I said at the beginning that I wanted to write a complete story, and a complete story needs an ending...
My first book made me a little bit "uneasy". Although it was a million words long, it couldn't finish it. I didn't write it according to the ending I designed at the beginning.
But fortunately, I will always gain something if I write like this. I am still full of hope.
Thank you readers for giving me this hope!
Maybe the next book will no longer be written with the idea that every character pursues "real existence", and it may not let the "calculation" that I am not good at occupy a lot of space.
Try the royal way of writing "shuang" in "shuangwen".
Do one thing, get something, and then do the next thing. This cyclical writing method also takes into account the author's skills.
Fortunately, I have been thinking and studying in this area recently.
The problems that appear in this book will probably not appear in subsequent works.
Writing hard is not the way out. You have to keep learning, change yourself, and adapt to the kind of story that readers want to see.
At least I now have some understanding of "choices".
Will definitely use it next time!
Perhaps, doing what I say is one of my strengths?
At least I haven't been perfunctory about paying off debts, so you can rest assured.
As long as I sign the contract, I will definitely finish the book.
As long as I owe a debt, I will definitely pay it off!
After all, I owe so many updates and have never said anything about changing the rules...
After all, I did it...
