    This is a slow-burn book I wrote. I recently read Robert McKee's experimental work, *Story*. If you still say my plot is bad after reading 60 chapters, then I'll truly admit I'm not cut out for writing. I've brought out all the conflicts and foreshadowing from the first sixty chapters in this crucial battle. All the conflicts converge, pushing the story to this climax, revealing all the hidden plot lines and foreshadowing. The world-building only begins to unfold from this moment, so the staying power is definitely huge… It's just that because I can't write the classic wish-fulfillment novel's "pretending to be weak to deceive others" kind of plot, not many people are reading it. Although I haven't updated to this point yet, I've already finished writing the drafts, and I'll be posting 4,000 words a day, which should be enough by the end of this month. If the readership isn't good, I'm prepared to abandon this book, but at least the protagonist's transformation is complete, so ending it here is fine. After all, the three endings of the script are finished, and the script is complete. If I update later, it will simply be like a sequel to this movie (actually, I've already thought of an outline, but with only single-digit readers a day, and no one even following the updates, I've lost the motivation to continue writing).
