I’m Really Not Targeting the Mages

…

Wanting to make a summary, I have a lot of thoughts at once, and I don't know where to start.

Let's talk about the ending.

At the end, Roger's departure was set at the beginning.

The way and the scene of his departure were similar to the scene when he left Tongma Town.

In fact, from the moment Roger walked into the big wetlands alone, he was destined to always be brave to move forward alone.

So is the tone of this book.

Although in the process of writing, I tried to create some supporting roles, but all of them were just scratches. There are very few supporting roles that occupy a particularly large role, except for a certain tool person.

In yesterday's chapter.

Some book friends joked that the ending was that the tool man defeated the partner. I watched it again and again and praised it!

Its essence is exactly that.

For Roger.

His heart is strong enough.

He may feel lonely.

May need companionship.

But it's practical.

At most, he just needs a partner.

He is a microcosm of when we play stand-alone games—

We may have experienced a magnificent epic plot.

We may have defeated all kinds of monsters.

We may have witnessed the beautiful scenery on the journey.

But we are all alone from beginning to end.

This loneliness has a lot of weight.

At least I personally enjoy this feeling.

When playing single player.

I can always be completely immersed in it.

I will forget all the troubles and sorrows of the real world.

At that moment I was invincible.

This novel is the same.

In reality, I may be afraid of loneliness, or have a lot of sentimentality, or I may be burdened by all kinds of mundane things.

But when I became Roger.

I will become very pure.

Simply becoming stronger is enough to make me extremely happy.

This is probably the source of my initial impulse to write this book.

…

After writing the ending, look back and read "The Master".

I still pat my thighs narcissistically from time to time:

"It's so beautiful!"

Especially the first one.

And my favorite is Roger's journey after he set foot on the Southbound Road.

It was the most wonderful time.

like our youth.

At that time, the scenery was just right and the breeze was not dry.

Everything has just begun.

start.

It means endless possibilities.

It contains a heart-shattering yearning.

It makes people eagerly looking forward to the arrival of tomorrow.

the strange thing is.

When tomorrow really comes.

No matter how beautiful he is.

It's also not as good as what I imagined.

laugh.

…

"Master" is a very beautiful work.

Anyway, I like it to the point of not being able to.

Although he has various shortcomings.

And it also caused a very bad reading experience for everyone at the closing stage - I apologize to everyone here again. If I hadn't suffered heavy physical and mental damage and I could barely hold back, I wouldn't have suddenly stopped updating at the end of the day. -even so.

I still think this is a work that is not low in completion.

Everything that needs to be written is finished.

The pits dug were also filled at a very early stage.

Although many people felt rushed when it ended.

But this phenomenon is actually quite normal.

Because readers and writers share the same brain.

In many cases, from the perspective of readers, there is still a lot of fantasy content in the past - this is the charm of the fantasy carrier of words - but there is really no content left on the author's side.

Some seasoned readers have already seen the clues.

As this work with the theme of becoming stronger.

In fact, the final signal was issued very early.

And about the change in Roger's mentality.

will push the signal to its climax.

He went from being an unknown adventurer at the beginning, to later discovering that he had the strength of the left and the right, and then to changing his cautious nature and the law of prudence to protect himself frequently to protect the other side, so that he became a frequent savior...

There is an ongoing process of strengthening.

But after reaching the peak.

It's a little bit of my own stuff - the idea that guardians can't be eternal.

As if the fallen gods were once also the heroes of the planet.

I have always believed that no amount of firm will can withstand the accumulated corrosion of standing still.

no matter who.

No matter what kind of hero.

Only by continuing to move forward can we maintain vitality.

Otherwise, it will continue to fall.

This is an unchangeable law.

So Roger's departure follows this logic.

I used to read a lot of novels.

The protagonist of XX becomes the **** of creation, and then lives happily in the same world with the heroine - this ending always confuses me.

It's as if we don't know if Prince Charming and Snow White's married life will be full of trivialities - will those constant protagonists gradually become decadent and conservative after many years?

Everyone may have their own opinion on this issue.

I won't talk more.

The above is just my immature personal stuff.

I still like to keep moving forward.

Even if it never ends.

…

…

After talking about subjective feelings, let’s talk about the shortcomings.

In fact, there are quite a few faults in "Master".

——The supporting characters are weak.

——The cool point has high repeatability.

——A large number of detailed settings created great difficulties for later writing.

Such shortcomings can be listed in a large basket.

But for me personally.

The biggest mistake I made was always sticking to the principle of "no small details" in the narrative structure.

No matter what the protagonist does.

I seem to have to write it out bit by bit. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

This is what I realized when I was reading the whole book during the break period.

Especially later.

I should have used detailed and proper writing to speed up the main story.

If I had to rewrite this book.

I will limit the word count to 2.4 million words.

Cut out unnecessary content.

This increases the level of excitement.

This conclusion may be contrary to what many readers think - this is the difference between the reader's perspective and the writer's perspective.

laugh.

Anyway.

I have benefited a lot from Master's creative process.

I personally like this kind of fast-paced writing.

This will inevitably lead to later fatigue problems.

This question is basically unsolvable.

The solution I've come up with at the moment is to reduce the word count!

Most of the current web articles are two or three million words or even four or five million words... To be honest, it's a bit too long.

It is better to increase the level of excitement and plot density.

So in the next book, I will probably try to compress the word count of the whole book.

2.4 million words may be a good length.

Of course these are just some imaginations.

How to implement it depends on the subsequent creation.

…

After chatting so much, it seems that there is no point.

When I think about this testimonial, this book is truly over.

There will still be some disappointment in my heart.

Thank you all for your support along the way.

Hope to see more familiar faces in the new book.

good luck.
