Although this is called the first volume, the book has actually already been half-finished, or even more.
When I used to read online-game novels like Windy Knight, Pirated Mythology, and Shield Control the World, they almost always had those two classic plotlines: obtaining a Guild Creation Token and holding an auction. So I had this idea in mind from the very beginning of writing the book: have a Guild Creation Token drop, then hold an entire auction.
It was as if online-game novels had come back to life in another body.
The foundation of this book is an online-game novel, a game novel. Once the game's gimmicks have all been revealed, it will basically be time for the book to end. Moreover, clever readers can already tell that although the map will become larger after the auction, with more factions and countless Immortal Lords and powerful experts appearing, this will actually be good news for the thieves. It means they will be able to find enough resources to advance by leaps and bounds.
The Foundation Establishment Chapter will only be more arrogant and unrestrained than the Mortal Chapter, because it was not until the end of the Mortal Chapter that Yan Qing fully understood how great his advantages were: Game Console, Treasure Gathering Pavilion, and Thieves' Den. None of the three could be missing. Without the Game Console, Yan Qing would merely be a mysterious Treasure Gathering Pavilion merchant who appeared and vanished without a trace. Without Thieves' Den, Yan Qing would always face the risk of being doxxed. Without Treasure Gathering Pavilion, Yan Qing would merely be a mysterious faction with many alternate accounts, and would still have to clear dungeons himself and slowly grow.
With all three combined, the thieves' rise would be unstoppable.
