  • Golden Fleece can be purchased in the pharmacy, but it is limited to 15 copies per week;

    Between the wind and the ruins, I prepare materials for a whole city for a virtual person
    It was an unreal afternoon.
    You sit in front of the computer, and the screen is the login page of “Mingchao”. The city is still flowing, and people are shuttling back and forth.
    You suddenly remember the name “Xiakong”.
    It’s very light. Like a rain that has just begun, and like a farewell that has not yet happened in the future.
    She doesn’t know you.
    You don’t really know her either.
    You can’t even be sure whether she exists in time or only in a certain emotion of yours.
    But you decide to prepare everything for her.
    You start collecting materials for a virtual character. How absurd it sounds
    But how reasonable it is.
    We have all done similar things.
    Leave a light on for an ex who will never come back;
    Write a poem for someone you have never hugged;
    Spend millions of shells in the game for a name that does not belong to reality.
    You pave the way for Xiakong’s existence in the world of “Mingchao”. She won’t tell you what she wants. You can only guess what she needs based on experience, like guessing the reason why a person cries late at night.

    You checked the complete information. You know that if you want to upgrade her from the initial state to level 90, she will need the following:

    Low-frequency eclipse sail core × 29

    Medium-frequency eclipse sail core × 40

    High-frequency eclipse sail core × 52

    Full-frequency eclipse sail core × 61

    Burning phosphorus evil bone × 46

    Iris blooming day × 26

    Golden fleece × 60

    Contains impure crystallized phlogiston × 25

    Roughly extracted crystallized phlogiston × 28

    Distilled crystallized phlogiston × 55

    High-purity crystallized phlogiston × 67

    Special resonance accelerator × 122

    Shell coins: 3,053,300 pieces

    The names of these materials are very strange, sounding like poems written by someone who has lost his memory.

    “Golden fleece”, “Iris blooming day”, “Burning phosphorus evil bone”… Every word is like a part of her body.

    You wonder if you can define a person by these quantitative things in reality, wouldn’t it be so easy to lose them?

    You even prepared a sacrifice for her weapon

    You know she doesn’t belong to this world.

    But you still want her to have the ability to defend herself. Even if she is just a lone traveler like you who travels through the virtual world.

    Her weapon also needs to grow. She can’t just rely on the protection of others. You prepare the following items for her:

    Simple shackles × 6

    Base shackles × 6

    Transformed shackles × 10

    Special shackles × 12

    **Crystallized phlogiston (four categories)** 40 copies in total

    Shell money: 330,000

    You don’t want to admit that this is more like arming yourself.

    There is a kind of growing up, you build a future for a fictional character
    In reality, you no longer go all out for anyone.

    You know too well that people will leave, relationships will collapse, and enthusiasm will ebb.

    But in the game – or in this game character, you allow yourself to regain the hard-working self. The self who is willing to save materials, brush dungeons, and fight bosses bit by bit.

    Xia Kong’s growth is not just about breakthroughs. There are also her skills and her circuits. You carefully read the items required for each level, like reading a suicide note.

    Her resonance circuit requires the following:

    Low-frequency eclipse sail core × 25

    Medium-frequency eclipse sail core × 28

    High-frequency eclipse sail core × 40

    Full-frequency eclipse sail core × 57

    Iris Blooming Day × 26

    Crystallized phlogiston at all levels: 175 copies

    Shell coins: 2,030,000 pieces

    You begin to get familiar with the names of these items, and even their origins.
    You know that “Burning Phosphorus Bone” is dropped from the Sighing Ancient Dragon;

    “Iris Blooming Day” requires completing the main quest before challenging the Fate Fragment Wheel.

    You planned a whole city of materials for her:
    Dungeons, shops, map points, enemy routes, drop probability…
    You no longer play games, but become the designer, guardian, and even fate maker of this world.

    You have never really seen her, but you know she is worth it
    You may not draw her.
    You may never control her to fight.
    You may also give up this game completely before a full star guarantee.
    But everything you prepared for her will not be blank.
    Those efforts, those 1 a.m. brushing books,
    Those nights of calculating materials with exhaustion,
    are telling you: You are not dead in life yet.
    You are still willing to believe that “growth” is meaningful for a projection, a name, and a faint hope.
    At the end, you turned off the screen.
    The city is still noisy, and the rain outside has stopped.
    You wrote in the memo of your mobile phone:
    “Xia Kong: Preparation is complete.”
    Actually, you are saying:
    “I still believe it.”

  • Examining the subtle entanglement between human nature and the times in a complex world

    Ju Fufu, this name seems to be a brand of the times, with a flame-like heat, but hiding unknown struggles and helplessness. She is not only a game character, but also a reflection of the times, a microcosm of a person struggling to survive in the complex torrent of the times.

    Her ordinary attacks are simple and direct, just like the life of the lower class people. Each attack is full of power, but also bound by the pressure of life. There are no gorgeous words, and no deliberate decoration, as if in the corner ignored by society, there are still creatures struggling to resist.

    Dodging is her escape and her resistance. Every dodge is like a struggle against the ruthless blow of reality. Although it is impossible to dodge completely, she has to choose to struggle. She tried her best to dodge, trying to find a breath of space from the complex social pressure.

    Her special skills and joint skills represent the intricate connections and conflicts between people. There are no isolated individuals, only intertwined destinies. The flame burning in her hands is not pure destruction, but unwillingness to reality and a counterattack against fate.

    The core skill of Ju Fufu seems to be a process of forbearance and accumulation. The fiery rotation is like the accumulation of repressed emotions, which eventually bursts out with shocking power. Her popcorn pot is not only a weapon, but also a place for her emotions and beliefs, and a symbol of her fight against fate.

    However, behind all this is the ruthlessness and indifference of the times. Her support skills reflect the silent guardians in society. They may not have a dazzling halo, but they silently bear the responsibility behind the scenes and support the crumbling world.

    The story of Ju Fufu is not only the growth history of an individual, but also a microcosm of society. Every attack and dodge she has experienced is a response to the injustice of reality and a confirmation of the value of her own existence. The leap of the flame is the burning hope in her heart and a silent struggle against darkness.

    What we see is not only her fight, but also the cry of the times. Those ignored corners and those suppressed voices are revealed one by one through her story. Her tenacity and weakness are just like the true portrayal of countless people in today’s society.

    Ju Fufu has no perfect background, no strong backing, she relies on her own strength to survive in the cracks of the times. Each of her skills is a declaration of war against fate, and every attack is an expectation for the future.

    As bystanders, should we also reflect on our position? Have we also become part of the oppression inadvertently? Can we also face the challenges of life bravely like Ju Fufu and not bow to fate?

    Her flame is the only warmth in the cold reality, and a cluster of green buds on the desolate land. Her performance in the game reminds us: everyone has his own battle, everyone has his own persistence and struggle.

    Her story teaches us that no matter how bad the environment is, no matter how ruthless the world is, the inner flame is not extinguished, which is the deepest respect for life. No matter how the times change, the flame of desire for freedom and dignity in human nature will never go out.

    Ju Fufu is a microcosm of the times and a symbol of humanity. She allows us to see the indifference of reality and the tenacity of life. Her flame is both a weapon and hope, guiding us forward in the darkness.

  • Program Gun: Trigger and Wait in an Unbalanced World

    There is a gun, it fell from the sky and then slid into the ground. It no longer belongs to the abyss of light, but is summoned by human desires in a whisper, becoming something available in some collective memory. A version change, 2.8, like an invisible hand, tore open the cell membrane of the programming language at night, transforming a symbol from airdrop to universal, it is called AUG.

    The M4 is still there, like a narrative that is constantly copied in history, repeating its own reliability and exhaustion without any surprise. And AUG, it is like exiting from a dream and entering the maze of reality.

    Players see numbers. 41 points of basic damage. Both are the same, but their trajectories do not overlap. This sense of balance is hypocritical, an illusion set up to cover up the tilt deep in the structure. The real difference lies in the undercurrent of recoil. The recoil of AUG – reduced 20% of vertical vibration and 10% of horizontal deviation. It is like a silent massacre, a mechanical existence that has been stripped of emotions by the system. It has been polished smooth, uniform, and even a little inorganic docility. What about the M4? It shakes in your hand. You need to use experience to control it, and use physical memory and inertia to resist it.

    This is not a comparison, but a conversation in the cracks of the code.

    Shooting becomes an experiment of thought. Who can accurately grasp the difference of 0.1 seconds? The reloading speed of AUG is a full second slower. This second is like the minerals precipitated by time in the strata, burning the edge of fate. Some people say it is a flaw, but perhaps it is the truth. You see your own reaction in this flaw, and see how the action of “waiting” collapses and reorganizes in the sound of gunfire.

    Bullet speed. 900 vs. 880. A weak but insignificant boundary difference. You can’t detect it in a high-speed exchange of fire, but it is there, attached to the air like a ghost. It is an early arrival, a flash of thought before language. AUG is like this idea – it appears early, but it doesn’t speak. It waits for you to understand, or be misunderstood.

    They coexist in the world generation pool, like two desires juxtaposed on the front and back of a piece of paper. The rarity of AUG is similar to that of M24. It is still uncommon, but it can be touched. This is a strategy and a confession: the power you can control is actually just a chance calculated in the algorithm.

    When you finally pick up AUG, you are not necessarily happy. Because you know that behind all the “gains” is a deeper “distortion”. You no longer believe in the will of the weapon itself, you only believe in whether the hand is stable and whether the heart has been freed from fear.

    Then you see those “skins”, those decorative shells, those appearances purchased with UC, like a kind of performance art where humans project their souls on the surface of weapons. You even begin to doubt whether the existence of these “skins” is more important than the function itself. Treabar appears in front of you, like a match vendor, selling a slightly warm possibility in a cold commercial context.

    You begin to doubt: Is this still a game?

    Or has it become a higher form of “simulation experience”, which not only makes you proficient in firearms, but also trains you to find yourself in multi-line narratives? You know that the M4 is faster, but you are willing to wait for the AUG to reload, just like you know that life is always full of flaws, but you are willing to gamble on the hope of change.

    So you take the AUG into the city, the wilderness and the airport, trying to build a certain order in a meaningless battle. Every shot is like a question: If there is no winner or loser in this world, who will this gun shoot at?

    And the answer is still hidden in the gap between the next reload.
