Chapter 143
It's the end of another stage.
Are you satisfied with the chapters in this volume? I don't think there are any big problems. Of course, I won't change it if you are not satisfied.
The rules of the Q&A are the same as before, but this time I will refer to the contents of "Reading Book Reviews Under 30 Points".
For example, it's like this -
Q: What kind of rubbish is this that you wrote?
A: Ah, yes, yes, yes, yes.
Then let's start.
——
Q: Can you say it again, what is the meaning of this Q&A?
A: It's just to make up the word count (not).
The Q&A is an important node for me to review the settings within a stage. After all, no one will ask questions about every pitfall I buried in the text, so I just ask and answer myself, revealing some information in advance to prevent people from misunderstanding the obscure plot and direction.
However, since not many people will catch up with the latest chapters, I won't write the Q&A very seriously.
——
Q: What is this volume (stage) about? Can you summarize it?
A: Many readers who only read the beginning said that the settings of the first few dozen chapters were inexplicable - how could a marquis's family not even have retainers? Why did the servants dare to betray? Why did other areas of the territory dare to be independent?
This is a hidden mine. If you don't finish reading the plot of this stage, you can't understand why the first few dozen chapters are designed in such an extreme environment.
The feudal system that was clearly pointed out from the beginning itself means that this country may be like the end of the Zhou Dynasty, where the king's power is undermined by the various princes. And later I also pointed out directly that the emperor of the empire is now in a semi-empty state.
Since the protagonist's father is a direct descendant of the emperor who was personally conferred a title, how will other princes deal with him? The old marquis has even taken away his military power, so let alone the loyalty of his family, it would be good if one-third of them are not spies.
The nobles deliberately spared the protagonist's life in order to dig a hole for the emperor - depriving him of his title would make everyone in the emperor's faction feel insecure, but keeping him would be a pure waste of resources.
That’s why the protagonist had a hard time at the beginning, because there was really no one around him who could be trusted, and he couldn’t count on other support.
In addition, when you exchanged valuables for a heroine at the beginning, the system would have allowed you to draw a character during the game’s novice tutorial, right? Do you want to keep the trial resources given in the novice tutorial for later?
——
Q: How was the heroine arranged? I like XXX very much, but why did you decide on the main wife so early?
A: This matter needs to be elaborated.
I don’t plan to write too much about the tug-of-war and internal friction in this book, and I will just touch on the Shura field. The heroine who starts the line seriously will start to trigger the favorability event, and may have contact with other heroines but will not interfere with each other.
After all, most heroines are not serious humans, and their character and concepts are very weak. So instead of rolling inward with each other, it is better to use joint skills on the protagonist at night.
…
The current arrangement for the heroine is that there are a total of eight people in the original setting, seven of whom have complete personalities and story lines. And the last one I plan to choose from the supporting roles. I will pay attention to readers' opinions on each supporting role and select the most popular one.
So if you like someone, please leave a comment. If no one mentions it, then this position will be vacant.
…
Another point that needs to be explained is that among the seven designed female protagonists, only one is a normal human being - she has not appeared yet.
It should be understandable that the spoiler is so far? People who can sit in the main palace position are not just straight-forward.
Currently, only one of the female protagonists has completed the surface line, and another has just triggered the opening event. So the story will be written later - and the closer the person is on the surface, the harder it is to deal with.
Of course, this does not affect the normal physiological interaction.
——
Q: Isn't it said that the male protagonist has no combat power? Can his ability directly attack others?
A: No.
This ability is at best a radar + analysis + command, and in fact it is more like the function of an early warning aircraft - with him, the combatants can ignore most of the invalid information and improve their combat efficiency.
Adding 5% combat power to one person is nothing, but what about 100, 1,000, or 10,000 people?
His actual combat power is always weak, so the defense problem is also a flaw in the entire system. This is something that needs to be considered repeatedly in the later plots, and it is also an important contradiction in the entire book.
Of course, there will be a solution in the future.
——
Q: So what's wrong with the strength system? Isn't level 5 very powerful? Why does it feel like cabbage and worthless?
A: The plot is writtenAt this point, most people who have read this book should have understood it. The so-called level in this book does not refer to combat power at all, but more to defense power.
If we take Dou Qi as an example, then the first level has no bonus, the second level is body strengthening, the third level is gas defense, the fourth level is fluid defense, and the fifth level is solid defense.
The [Confirm Kill] level is the real standard for judging attack power.
In addition, the classification of magicians is even determined only by the number of attribute combinations. A magician who can only release third-level confirm kill magic may be judged as fifth level because he can master the combination of triple attributes.
However, the triple composite attribute does have strong defense power, so it is not necessarily wrong to judge it as fifth level.
——This setting is actually intentional. According to the world view in the book, the person who set this rule originally wanted to make it difficult for people to judge the actual combat power of each opponent, so as to deter some unnecessary conflicts in advance.
The taboo level above level 6 actually means giving up a lot of things in exchange for more outrageous defense power. But because physical strength is not endless, even if the defense power is strong, it will be consumed by people and lose combat power.
In summary, a high level does not necessarily mean a strong combat power, but it is definitely getting stronger.
…
In addition, I have to mention a deeper setting that is not very relevant.
When I write articles, I have two major premises for setting the combat power of various characters. One is [scale] and the other is [human nature].
The first premise determines the upper limit of power, and the second premise is "the desire to use power".
It is because humans know their own insignificance that they create various huge tools, and it is because they fear death that they sing praises of life.
But if you really have the power to change the world at will and wipe out thousands of lives with a wave of your hand, will you really still have the idea of competing with others? Do you really still care about the seven emotions and six desires, and how all things in the world should flow?
Just like people don’t care about the lives of ants, even if you pour a pot of boiling water into an ant nest on a whim one day, it has nothing to do with your [human nature] - the pleasure of slaughtering weak lives is just [animal nature].
This is a matter of opinion, and I don't force you to agree or understand it, but I just said that there will be such underlying rules in my book to restrict it.
——
Q: The book always mentions things that happened thousands of years ago. Will they be expanded in detail?
A: No, in fact, it was originally something of the nature of an Easter egg.
The so-called ancient hero is actually the protagonist of another book of mine, another world view.
That world view is the big background board in every book I write, just to emphasize the feeling that "it turns out that there is really a world outside the world." It will not be expanded in detail, and only some clues will be left to establish connections between the stories.
You asked me why I would do this if no one reads my writing? I am happy.
——
Q: More chapters! How can people read your two chapters a day!
A: I really want to add more chapters, but in order to ensure that the story has no flaws, I have to think about and revise it repeatedly every day when I write 4,000 words. If I write 10,000 words a day, the plot will really collapse.
In addition, if you ask me to add more chapters, there must be some reason. You said that there are only so few people following the update now, and the number of urging for update is less than 20. The comments only pop up after several chapters. From time to time, there are still some kids who only read a few chapters or skipped all of them and thought they were very smart and gave a bad review...
I think it's good that I keep updating! (annoyed)
In short, there is no problem with adding more chapters, but I have this idea at present - I will still write the interaction between the heroines in the form of [Interlude] in the future. If a certain character is mentioned more in the comments later, I will write an extra chapter with the main perspective of that character when the plot is appropriate.
If no one mentions it, then don't write it, it's easier!
...
As for the main storyline, it's really hard to add. Recently, in order to finish this stage, I have been in a state of lack of sleep for several days - and looking back, I feel that my writing is still terrible.
There is no way, my level is limited, so I will just write it.
——
The Q&A ends.
Because the chapter that was cut off was an odd-numbered one, I will find a chance to restore it to an even-numbered one later to satisfy my obsessive-compulsive disorder. As for whether to update once and rest for a day or update three times a day, I will talk about it later.
In addition, these more than 100 chapters are just the beginning. I will not let you guess what I will write later.
Spoilers? You can have them this time.
Next is the technical advantage game. If you want to keep up with the times, say goodbye to the traditional magic battle!
