2020.12.31 Patch Update, New Map and Monthly Summary

First, there's the patch update.

Over the past month.

Only two bugs were found.

Even better.

One of them was discovered by the developer himself and could not be fixed.

"1. In 143."

The rule in 'Beneath the Immortal Palace' is that you cannot lie.

But Roger lied.

He said, 'I didn't hear you clearly'...

This sentence has now been deleted.

The Temporary Worker who wrote this copy is being held accountable.

"2. In 144."

The 'Milestone System' has a huge and unfixable bug (points for redeeming titles are not being calculated).

This led to a conflict between the 'first-come First-Mover Ticket and Milestone Points.

I want to apologize to everyone here.

The 'Milestone System' was outsourced to a freelancer.

We discovered this after investigation.

It was discovered that he had outsourced the work to a college student majoring in Chinese language and literature.

The college student simply copied the code from the internet.

That's why this situation occurs.

The relevant personnel have been Extermination Order.

Secondly, there's the new map.

Let's be honest.

The map module for this game was outsourced to our Indian counterparts.

Therefore, the progress is relatively slow.

This update covers the area south of the Serra River.

I am the image.

There's also the first map from before.

I am the image.

Detailed maps of the Southern Tomb Wilderness and other areas are expected to be released in the middle or end of next month.

We are currently considering creating a tabletop RPG map.

But the workload is a bit heavy.

Players, don't worry.

Wai Rui Ku.

Kang Mingsong.

I don't have the energy to compile a list of those who donated money right now.

I have a list in my backend.

However, it requires manually pressing Enter one by one.

The workload is too great.

All I can say is thank you so much for your support!

Every tip you give will pop up on my phone's assistant.

I recognize all those IDs.

Thank you so much for the donation.

Finally, there is the monthly summary.

Let's review the creative content from December:

The latter half of Volume 5, "The Bone Tax" (099~111, totaling 42,000 words).

Volume 6, "Floating Island and Demonic Tide" (Pages 112-125, totaling 50,000 words).

Volume 7, "Unexpected Calamity" (Chapters 126-143, totaling 63,000 words).

Volume 8, "The Axe Sword Immortal" (Chapters 144-160, totaling 55,000 words).

Total of 210,000 words.

That's exactly 7000 per day.

It's no exaggeration to say that...

The rhythm and progress are exactly the same as what I wrote on the rhythm outline.

The previous chapter has been completed, marking the end of Volume 8.

The next chapter will introduce the new plot of Volume 9.

The progress is perfect.

In terms of structure...

I learned from the mistakes of the first five volumes.

The storyline ended earlier.

In the initial outline.

The Captain's identity will be revealed around volume 10.

Just like the first five volumes, "The Extinguishing Cloud and Talia".

And now.

Volumes 7 and 8 are independent stories, yet they also connect and conclude the narrative, while simultaneously serving as foreshadowing.

I think I've made pretty much progress.

We may adopt this pace in the future.

Two or three volumes are used to conclude a small event.

Let's make a big splash with volumes four or five.

To prevent everyone from forgetting.

Regarding the specific content...

Starting from Volume 7.

While retaining the satisfying aspect of prioritizing development, I've also included other key elements.

A little more characterization was added.

It's really just a tiny bit.

I'm afraid that too much might be too much for everyone to handle.

As it stands now.

The results were mediocre.

The response to the piano was good.

Cisco and Stephanie were just average.

Regarding the upcoming scenes.

I will continue to seek a balance between storyline, monster-hunting, and character interaction.

Brushing is definitely the key point.

However, endlessly scrolling through content is definitely not advisable.

I will try to broaden the boundaries of my writing.

This process may occasionally involve contractions.

Please bear with me.

There's not much to say about the plot.

The main storyline was already meticulously planned.

What I need to do is learn how to insert "Spring Sun Valley Story" mini-plots into the main storyline in various ways.

We can't get fat overnight.

We have to take it slow, don't we?

All in all.

Except for not having any drafts saved.

Everything is fine.

This book's performance is neither outstanding nor terrible.

But considering that I'm the only LV1 in the top ten of the new book charts.

It's alright.

We hope everyone will support the official subscription.

After all, online novels are a typical example of people voting with their feet.

Niche books are really hard to afford.

I'm counting on this subscription.

If I can't find a job, I'll have to go back to working.

As I write this, I suddenly realize that it's already the end of the year.

Not many good things happened this year.

I wrote this book at the end of the year.

It does seem like things are turning around sometimes.

But no matter what.

The good and the bad are both in the past.

A new year.

Everything will be alright! "Ten Years One Key" wishes everyone a Happy New Year!

Etc.

You're saying this is the Gregorian New Year?

Um.

Consider this my way of wishing everyone a Happy New Year in advance!

Current word count: 462,500 words

"2.54 million words and 363 days remain until the end of this book" (recalculated monthly)...

Happy New Year.

Just grab a monthly pass and go.
