I asked you to write a light novel, but you wrote about living?

Deep within the servers of Weiguang Literature, this sudden update of 6,000 words was like a piece of raw iron thrown into a cyber pool, instantly stirring up strange ripples in the data.

Due to the previous limit of "4,000 words per day" and the reverse fermentation of the "highly toxic" reputation, the book's shelf retention rate presents a bizarre phenomenon of polarization.

The remaining readers are extremely diverse:

There is a minority who are attracted by the rough and realistic texture of the writing;

There are also haters who come to the comments section every day to rant and rave, just for fun;

The vast majority are also bookworms who have been misled by authors like [Mingming Ruyue], holding their noses and waiting patiently for the "last-ditch counterattack and a powerful slap in the face" trope.

When the highly anticipated update notification sounded simultaneously on thousands of retina displays, this diverse group of readers immediately flooded the reading interface.

The initial comments were fairly normal, filled with surprise at the sudden extra chapter.

[Huh? Wasn't I supposed to be limited to 4,000 words a day by the platform? How come I wrote 6,000 words today?]

It seems the platform has unblocked the account; at least Weiguang still has some conscience.

But as the reading progressed, and the plot reached the point where Fugui was struggling in the fields, his mother suddenly fell seriously ill, and Fugui hurriedly ran to the city with the last bit of money in the family to fetch a doctor, the atmosphere in the comments section became heated again.

Impatient readers began to get restless:

[Again? Dad just died not long ago, and Mom's sick now? Is this author psychologically twisted? Does he feel uncomfortable if he doesn't write about someone dying every day?]

[This is so frustrating! It makes my chest feel tight! Isn't there even a place in the city that sells basic gene repair fluid? Do I have to run around on foot just to see a doctor?]

[I'm speechless. They spent half a day cultivating those five acres, and still didn't unearth any ancient mecha or Shennong's Cauldron! Fugui is still that poor wretch! When will this book finally be enjoyable?]

A sense of despair and oppression once again enveloped the comment section, and a new wave of "book abandonment" and abuse seemed imminent.

However, when these readers swiped through the virtual interface and saw the last part of the latest chapter:

In the chaotic city, Fugui not only failed to find a doctor, but also had the misfortune of encountering the army on the street. He was beaten headlessly with rifle butts and military sticks, and was eventually forcibly incorporated into an artillery company along with a group of innocent civilians and sent to the front lines as cannon fodder...

The entire comment section for "To Live" fell into an extremely strange two-minute silence.

Immediately afterwards, like a long-suppressed volcano finally finding a breakthrough, the barrage comments and book reviews erupted in a frenzy, instantly dominating the entire screen!

This time, what ignited the comments section wasn't insults, but celebration!

A long review with a gold highlight certification landed at the very top of the book review section like a bombshell. The poster was none other than the V8 Star Book Guest, [Mingming Ruyue], who was sticking to the "front line of imagination".

【Mingmingruyue】: "Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap!!! Brothers, everyone stand up! The climax is finally coming!"

"I knew this author was playing a huge game! Look, Fu Gui's father was sacrificed to the heavens, the family fortune was all gone, his wife went back to her hometown to suffer with him, and now he's being forcibly dragged into the army! Think about it, think about it carefully! This is clearly the most classic, ultimate trump card opening in the world of online novels—the 'Return of the God of War' genre!!!"

His writing exudes an extreme excitement of "seeing through everything," and his analysis is remarkably logical:

"Those who complain about being frustrated should use their brains! If Fugui doesn't go to the front lines, how can he make achievements? How can he access the most essential mechs and training resources?"

He's been conscripted now, and he's definitely been thrown into the most dangerous death camp!

But there, he's bound to awaken the 'Killing Critical Strike System' or meet some hidden military bigwig!

Believe it or not, this war will last for three years.

Three years later, Fugui made outstanding military achievements and was named the "Peerless War God"!

When he returned to his hometown wearing the highest-ranking general's overcoat, he found his mother seriously ill in bed, and Long Er abusing his wife and children...

At this moment, Fu Gui gave the order, and 100,000 retired veterans assembled, razing Long Er's house to the ground and using the military's top-of-the-line medical pods to heal the old woman!

This imaginative and insightful review, which perfectly captures the essence of cyberpunk novels, sent readers who were struggling to breathe from the oppressive plot into a state of euphoria, as if they had just drunk an ice-cold nutrient solution in the desert.

[Holy crap!!! I get it! The God of War has returned! I knew the author wouldn't have written about him being arrested for no reason!]

[Awesome! This foreshadowing is absolutely brilliant! The more tension built up beforehand, the more satisfying it will be when the God of War returns three years later and delivers his slap in the face! I can already picture the terrified look on Ryuji's face when he sees Fugui's epaulettes!]

[The author is quite talented! They've combined the "path of forbearance and survival" with the "god of war" trope so perfectly. This plot design is miles ahead of those overused, artificially invincible stories!]

[I take back what I said about criticizing the author! This idea is brilliant! I can't wait to see what happens next. Go, my Fugui War God!!!]

[Update is urgent! Hurry up and write the story of Fugui awakening his superpowers amidst piles of corpses and fighting his way up to commander! If you can bring back the God of War tonight, I'll reward you with ten Starfire spaceships!]

The comments section was in an uproar.

Everyone was celebrating, using their "feel-good" mentality, honed by the AI ​​model, to wildly predict Fugui's heroic figure on the battlefield.

Various fan fiction stories, such as "God of War Fugui" and "Ten Thousand Soldiers Return to Their Positions," flooded the comments section.

In this frenzied feast of imagination, no one thought about the cold reality behind those rough words, and no one was willing to believe that the cowardly, unlucky Fugui, who was beaten to the ground by a rifle butt, was really just a pitiful peasant soldier swept along by the torrent of the times to become cannon fodder.

Many readers are eagerly anticipating the upcoming "slap in the face" experience.
