Chapter Five Hundred and Ninety Sixth Advantage

"Don't you yearn for freedom and rights? Hoinheim!"

A mass of darkness in the flask issued a question to torture the soul.

Hoinheim, former slave No. 23, was unable to answer this question.

How could he not yearn for freedom, but, in Xerxes, as a slave, it was impossible for him to obtain freedom.

"Shall I teach you knowledge? Hoinheim!"

The black mass in the flask made a hollow sound.

"Then you... what should I call you?" Hoinheim looked at the flask with a serious expression on his face.

"The villain in the test tube (Holmonks)!"

On the last page of "The Little Man in the Test Tube", Roy ignited the information he got from the code he communicated with Wen Li.

"Selim Bradley is... an artificial human? That's impossible, isn't it?"

...

"The story turned to Xerxes, and Daddy was once a slave..."

"Although I guessed that Daddy Bean is related to Xerxes, I never thought that he is actually from Xerxes!"

"No, he's just a slave. How could he make a Xerxesian? A slave is not a citizen."

"I'm not going to argue... But in this way, the origin of "Smelting Steel" will be established. Daddy Bean used his blood to create Holmonks."

"But how was he made?"

"Test tubes, it has been clearly shown in the comics. Before that, Hoinheim, or Slave 23, cleaned up in the laboratory. The instruments commonly used in the laboratory, such as test tubes, flasks, jars, and Erlenmeyer flasks , these clearly appear in the comics, but in the era Edward lived in, these instruments were rarely seen..."

"Does it mean that before the appearance of Holmonks, there was no 'alchemy' in this world?"

"No, alchemy should exist. In reality, alchemists will also use some instruments to conduct experiments. But before the appearance of the 'little man in a bottle', there should be no alchemy formation."

"I remembered,

Didn't it be said in the comics before that the alchemy of Amistoris was transmitted by the sage of the East. "

"Xi Xian and Dong Xian... Could it be Hoinheim and 'Father'?"

"Probably!"

"Oh...so, that's true."

"But who is Xixian and who is Dongxian?"

"It's not clear yet..."

"Anyway, it's all in Teacher Shen's writing."

"I thought that the previous plots were already exciting enough, like the part of 'Signpost of the Soul', which revealed the secrets of the whole story, but I didn't expect that there was a plot of Xerxes in "Forged Steel" .”

"You said, how many words will there be about the content related to Kessel Kesais?"

"I don't know, I guess according to the current plot, it will take about 5 chapters."

"The whole process of "Steel Refining" has no pee point, it is impossible to give five episodes... I guess three episodes."

"Just keep reading. I hope that in the next chapter, I can reveal a corner of Xerxes."

...

After Kessel Keseth appeared in the comics, the plot aroused discussions among readers, which made "Comic Future" completely become the stage for "Smelting Steel" to stage a "one-man show".

In fact, not only readers, but even some cartoonists recommended "Smelting Steel" on Weibo.

Generally speaking, the quality of works is from high to low, and then descends. This is because if a work is to be serialized, the previous plot must be polished repeatedly.

The same applies to the Internet. The buyout depends on the quality of the previous articles to set the price. Therefore, the tens of thousands of words at the beginning must have been repeatedly deliberated and revised, and the share must be polished at the beginning. Generally speaking, the author will prepare a detailed outline to ensure the quality of the first 200,000 to 300,000 words.

After serialization, due to time and energy, the creator is not allowed to refine the outline carefully. In addition, with the progress of the story, the spread of the world and the plot, the difficulty of creating the work is greatly increased, and the strength of the creator is also restricted. the quality of the work.

But these problems did not happen in "Smelting Steel". As the story unfolded, one puzzle after another was unraveled like a cocoon, which made the story more exciting.

If such a work can't tell the results, then there will be no comics that can.

Friday, "Comic Future" editorial department.

After proofreading the manuscript, Wang Wenhong took a sip of tea.

The recent fire in "Steel Refining" has made him extremely excited, especially the news that has surprised the entire editorial department from the sales department - if counting from November, as of now, "Steel Refining" has continued Volumes 14-17 have been published, and the total sales volume has exceeded 8 million copies. If we push forward another six months, the sales volume will almost reach 10 million copies.

However, the animation of "Steel Refining" is still going on, implying that the bet between Shen Xin and Bao Jiyi has already been won.

If it continues, don't say 10 million copies...even 15 million copies are possible.

What this means for an anime is self-evident.

Shen Xin, without a doubt, has already stood at the top of Chinese cartoonists.

Wang Wenhong put the teacup on the table and took a deep breath.

The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. Wang Wenhong is very clear about this truth. Especially, the performance of "Steel Refining" is obviously higher than that of other comics. Last year's "Dragon King".

Shen Xin also gave Wang Wenhong some time in advance, this year won't be finished, but by the end of next year, it should be almost done.

At the end of next year——

To be honest, it seems a little fast.

Just when Wang Wenhong was thinking wildly, an email was sent to the desktop.

"Little book!?"

Wang Wenhong glanced at the title, and it was indeed the latest issue of the little book.

The first place is undoubtedly "Smelting Steel". The number of votes in this issue is as high as 684, which is 126 more than the second place "King of Rock and Roll".

As long as Shen Xin doesn't die, it's basically impossible for "The King of Rock and Roll" to catch up with "Smelting Steel".

Further down, there are "Restaurant in Another World" and "Hunting Abyss", which is in the final stage, followed by "Ding Shi".

What surprised Wang Wenhong was "Returning to 12 Years Old", this comic actually ranked 8th.

Is it true that as Shen Xin said, as long as there is an opportunity to make animations, this comic may be the best?

Wang Wenhong glanced at Yan Fei, but saw that she drank coffee and was at ease.

No wonder, who made her two works have good results?

Although it's not the top-notch one, it's already very good, but the top ten is two, especially, among these two works, there is also a manga by Zuo Yuan.

At this moment, Shang Haozhi walked towards the cartoon with a serious face while holding a stack of documents.

Set a small goal first, such as 1 second to remember: Shukeju
