Volume Three is finished, and next is the final volume of The Way of the Extraordinary. The word count of the final volume will probably be between 500,000 and 1,000,000 words, and it will definitely be completed by the end of the year. Next, I need to tie up the loose ends. In fact, many foreshadowings in the early stages point to the same secret. At first glance, there seem to be many foreshadowings, but once a secret is solved, many foreshadowings will unravel themselves and don't need to be explained again. Even so, I think there are still a third of the foreshadowings that haven't been tied up. Well, I may have forgotten some foreshadowings myself, so I need to take a day to sort them out, so please allow me to take a day off. Why not take two days off? Because I've been doing single updates for the past three months, and the workload hasn't been that high, so I sometimes think while writing. It's okay, I won't be chasing subscriptions for the next book.
I know that everyone has had a lot of opinions about me recently due to update and quality issues. In June, I had some problems with both my body and mind. More than a year of high-intensity writing has worn me out. Writing The Way of the Extraordinary is even more tiring than writing Da Feng, because I have to constantly think about the script. For each instance, I try to design different modes, and it can't just be about entering the instance to fight monsters and level up. Then there are the various settings and foreshadowings in reality, which create a double pressure. In the first year, I still had some energy to spare, but later on, every time I opened my computer, I felt physically uncomfortable and suffered from occasional mental depression and irritability. Sometimes I really couldn't think of anything, and I'm not always in the right state, but I could only force myself to create. Long-term, high-intensity mental work will inevitably lead to problems over time. Then there's my body: migraine headaches, cervical spondylosis, and disrupted sleep patterns leading to physical fatigue, lack of concentration, long-term lack of exercise leading to decreased energy, weakened immunity, and severe sub-health. One day, while staying up all night writing, my mind suddenly went blank, and I lost consciousness. It took several seconds to recover, which scared me into a cold sweat. Then I started to slow down the updates and switched to single updates. I've never said these things before because I didn't think it was necessary. Readers and authors have different perspectives. Readers come to read books, and no matter what the reason, as long as the updates are poor, the "daddies" will definitely be unhappy, and no reason will work. "I came here to find happiness, and I haven't even started yet, and you're already failing. You haven't fed me enough, giving me one update a day like you're dealing with a beggar. Even if there are many reasons, my happiness is still halved, so I'm definitely going to scold you." But from the author's point of view, my life is more important. Why would I go against money? So I simply didn't explain, the updates were indeed bad, and it's normal to be scolded. In the past three months, I've mostly played dead and never resisted or argued, right? Now that I've finally finished this volume, I feel relaxed and can honestly talk to everyone. The three months of single updates have improved my mental and physical health somewhat, at least I don't feel like I'm about to drop dead at any moment like I did before. I won't say much more. I hope my body and mind can hold out until The Way of the Extraordinary is successfully completed. The average subscription is around 24,000, a slight increase. In any case, thank you all for your support. Thank you! 207
