Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire
After reading today's comments, let me explain
There are some comments today that are quite harsh. Well, the main problem is that they think the protagonist's fighting ability is suppressed.
What I must explain is that there is no overpowering of the protagonist's combat power. Compared with the golden dragon of the same age, the protagonist is only stronger but not weaker. He can beat young dragons across age groups.
Here are the challenge levels for golden dragons: Young Dragon 5; Young Dragon 7; Juvenile 9; Adolescent 11; Youth 14; Adult 16; Mature 19; Old 21; Very Old 22; Ancient Dragon 24; Elder Dragon 25; Great Ancient Dragon 27
The realms I set are: Bronze Enlightenment (1-5), Silver Yunling (6-10), Golden Glory (11-15), Ultimate Intent (16-20), Legend (21-30)
For a normal golden dragon, it would take at least fifty years to possess the protagonist's current combat power. The protagonist is currently less than thirty, and it would take four hundred years to possess legendary combat power.
Of course, some people will say that although the protagonist is a dragon, to be different, he should get a BUFF like super-speed growth. Unfortunately, I will never give the protagonist super-speed growth, because this is a debuff in my eyes, not only for the protagonist, but also for the protagonist. All books are debuffed
The reason why I feel that the protagonist's combat power is suppressed is because almost 99% of the dragon stories in the starting point and even the outer stations have super-speed growth or similar buffs. As the protagonist of the immortal species, he will be different from the short-lived ones. The species is the same, even faster than the short-lived species, reaching the top of the world.
Many people are used to it and think this is the standard character for the protagonist Long Wen. Unfortunately, I won’t give it to Noah. I just want to make it a little different and stand out.
The reason is very simple. I want to write a long novel. I don’t want to end it with a million words. I want to write a three-million-word or even longer novel.
Giving the protagonist over-speed growth is equivalent to giving the book a debuff like over-speed completion, or over-speed unfinishing. After the protagonist's combat power reaches the peak of the world, there is nothing to see. After that, it is just stacking boxes and playing with concepts. It's very boring. It's not interesting for the author to write it, and it's not interesting for the readers to read it.
The truly exciting part of a novel is the protagonist’s struggle in his final years, his rise in adversity, and his explosion in his growth period. When he reaches his peak, it becomes boring after a few chapters.
Therefore, the author will change the map, and the protagonist of the ancient online novel will even keep ascending. There are also novels in which the protagonist ascends more than ten times in a row. There is really no way.
From my point of view, this is the shortcoming of Longwen now. The protagonist of Longwen grows up too fast. There is almost no micro-end stage. The growth period is too short. The peak period, after pretending for a while, is dull and boring.
Therefore, almost all dragon novels are eunuchs with hundreds of thousands of words and unfinished with millions of words. The most famous ones cannot escape the same fate.
This is both an inherent flaw in the subject matter and a problem in the setting.
Some people may also say that it depends on the author's writing style that he can write even when he is at his peak.
It is indeed possible to write
However, one of the big guys I admire more, Yin Tian Shenyin, has already given a lengthy answer to writing about the protagonist at his peak.
In Soul of Burning Steel and Monster Killer, after the protagonist reaches the top of the world, he just keeps stacking boxes and playing with concepts. They are very well written. I have not seen anything better so far.
It's a pity that I can't follow it anymore. I ordered it, but I don't want to read it at all. Boss Yintian should also be aware of this problem.
Therefore, in the third book, Above the Sky, the upper limit of the protagonist has been cut a lot, and it has not reached the height of the protagonist in the first two books. Now the fourth book, Destiny, should be the same. The protagonist will not stack boxes anymore in the later period.
The boss has already demonstrated it himself. As a fan of the boss, I will naturally not be ungrateful.
Therefore, the protagonist of this book will be a real long-lived dragon that takes hundreds or even thousands of years to grow, instead of a short-lived dragon that peaks in a few decades and is killed by the author.
This is the solution I came up with to solve the shortcomings of the dragon novel theme. Write the protagonist as a long-lived species instead of a short-lived species. This can extend the life of the novel to a certain extent.
It’s not enough to change the setting. You also need to change the story and plot. Otherwise, if the protagonist sleeps for a hundred years or sleeps for a thousand years, what kind of story would there be and what is there to read? What kind of novel would it be?
Therefore, I joined the short-lived species family. Only the short-lived species with a lifespan of a hundred years can bring out the eternity of the long-lived species (it seems like a spoiler, hahaha)
Let me be clear, some readers said that the protagonist has to be suppressed for thousands of years. This does not exist. Even if a supporting character appears who can suppress the protagonist, he will either be hidden or the plot will kill him. Anyway, he will not be able to survive for long.
I never let the protagonist feel wronged.
Actually, instead of complaining about my superiority to the protagonist's combat power, it is better to say that the titan aura of the protagonist's adoptive father is too heavy. The original challenge level of the Titan elder in DND is only 27, which is the same as the ancient golden dragon.
The Titans in my book adopt the settings from my, um, friend's book, so it's quite over the top. After all, it's the book my friend is most proud of, and I don't want to ruin the settings.
Therefore, Cassius's template is beyond the scope. This is actually because of the protagonist. If it were not for the identity of the protagonist's adoptive father, I would never have given Titan blood.
The same goes for Serena. Without the aura of the protagonist's adoptive mother, I would never give her super magical talent.
The reason why this couple is over the top is to not lose the protagonist's character. After all, they are the protagonist's adoptive father and mother, so they cannot be reduced in price. Moreover, they are also the first generation of brilliant pioneers of a short-lived family that is used to contrast the protagonist's longevity.
At this point, we can basically summarize it. This book is still centered on dragons, but it also combines two major themes of the fairy tale. One of them, someone actually made fun of it, one dragon is passed down to three generations, and the dragon is still there.
Family literature, and longevity flow
This is the method I came up with to break the curse of Long Wen!
above
complete!
Let’s go to the code first. Best wishes to everyone.
