January 2 Summary and Acknowledgements

Happy New Year, my darlings!

Happy times always fly by, and another year has passed in the blink of an eye.

Did everyone eat well, drink well, and have fun?
I don't seem to feel anything.

I worked hard to finish the drafts for the first half of the month, and finally I could rest on New Year's Eve.

But perhaps because we were rushing too much earlier, when I suddenly stopped to rest, I didn't know what to do. I felt a kind of blank, numb feeling.
The first year of junior high passed just like that, then the second year... I didn't feel anything special until March, when my drafts were all gone, and I was still feeling lost and numb.

It feels like I've rested, but it also feels like I haven't... I can't quite put my finger on it...

Well, in the end, a new planet is about to begin anew.

It seems that the Annie Demon from the previous planet really wasn't up to par.

February's revenue was only 95.46, failing to break 2. Of this, 58 came from subscriptions, 16 from tips, and 20 from group purchases.

Hmm... not a big problem. After all, income is no longer my motivation to keep going.

I have seriously reflected on my actions. I have carefully reviewed the outline of the new planet and hope to give everyone a better experience.

In addition, last month I streamlined my writing style, cutting out some potentially redundant psychological descriptions or adjectives in an attempt to make the pace less slow.

Do you all think this change is good? Or was the previous more detailed description better? Or are there other adjustments that could be made?

Last month, Silvermoon City faced an energy shortage, and Herman's death revealed the truth, leading to unrest in Silvermoon City. Uncontrolled anger poured out on the Loess District and also affected the Greystone settlement, a vital passageway.

Lin Fan and his two companions acted in time, preserving the embers of the Yellow Earth. The flame of human thought, which Adrian had deliberately allowed to stagnate, was rekindled in the ruins where there was nowhere left to retreat, and the Yellow Earth people fought desperately for survival.

Bonnie was able to convert technological energy into beast souls to re-energize Crystal City, quickly suppressing the Silvermoon people's rebellion.

Vallejo deliberately elevated the status of the Graystone People and suppressed the Silver Moon People. The Yellow Earth People, who had intruded into the conflict, unexpectedly gained an unimaginably comfortable life.

Beneath the seemingly peaceful surface, the Yellow Earth People's predicament remained unchanged; the Silver Moon People also set their sights on humanity; Valerius was impeached and imprisoned by the Council; and Adrian, basking in his success, refocused his attention on the Thousand-Year-Old. Lin Fan and his companions complied with Old Finch and Impelio's request to leave, giving the Anemocracy a chance to survive. Unexpectedly, Adrian sabotaged the starship. The deadly traps originally intended for Old Finch now fell upon Lin Fan and his companions…

This month, a new chapter begins: "Dust and Cage".

I won't spoil the plot yet. It follows the typical "power fantasy" trope of a poor guy's rise to power, revenge, and face-slapping, along with plenty of mech and starship battle scenes. Hopefully, it'll be a refreshing read.

I'll just write whatever I want, whether it's good or bad... it can't get any worse, right?

Alright, enough chit-chat, let's get straight to the thank-you section.
