Douluo's full-time soul master

"Then what should we do?" Xia Ke tried to calm himself down.She supported Huang Dong to stand up, and continued to ask: "Will Maldraxxus attack us?"

Huang Dong replied in a bitter voice: "It's hard to say. Maldraxxus is a force that advocates blood and thunder, strength and glory. They will not launch a war for no reason. Since they have just returned to this world, they will launch a war against us." If they didn’t attack, there must be their reasons. Sometimes, the reason is just that we are stronger and qualified to be their opponents.”

"Should they take the initiative to attack if they are qualified to be their opponents? What kind of bullshit logic is this?" Sun Feng said angrily. "I don't think there is any difference between this Maldraxxus and the demons in Soul Eater Demon Abyss."

"Be cautious in your words and deeds! Sun Feng. Don't make rash comments on things you don't understand." Huang Dong was a little annoyed. "Now that things have happened, we can only choose to believe that Maldraxxus has not forgotten the first principle they have adhered to for hundreds of millions of years-never bully the weak. Otherwise, everyone present today may never see each other again To the sun of tomorrow."

Sun Feng's eyes widened. "No, I said Brother Dong, what kind of bullshit is Droxas really as powerful as you say???"

"Shut up! I told you to shut up!" Huang Dong became completely annoyed. "If they hear about it, even if they didn't plan to do anything to us, they will change their minds because of your provocative words. What awaits us at that time may be the fate of being ashamed!"

Huang Dong, a level 96 twin martial soul Super Douluo, was terrified like a helpless little boy at this moment.

How powerful is this Maldraxxus?

In other words, they don't belong to the existing soul master-soul beast system at all.

The soul master-soul beast system was germinated in the era when the Six Outer Gods came to the world, and developed and matured after the Silver Dragon King came to the world.

And the period when Maldraxxus prospered was two full generations earlier than the soul master-soul beast system, and only later than the original kingdom of heaven.

The current so-called Douluo God Realm is not even as good as a small realm in the original heaven.

Looking at "Fights Break the Sphere" next door, the Douhuang level has the power to move mountains and fill the sea, and the god in Douluo, with all his might with such a magical weapon as the Sea God Trident, almost didn't even break through a city gate.

Why are the so-called "gods" in the Douluo system so weak?

It is precisely because after the destruction of the original kingdom of heaven, the huge energy it overflowed was divided among the four realms of Maldraxxus, Blazing Wilderness, Ascension Fortress, and Revendreth.

They have been in Douluo World for tens of millions of years, and finally they were all sucked away by unknown space-time turbulence, scattered in different locations in the vast cosmic space.

Among them, Blazing Fairy Field, Revendreth, and Promotion Fortress all entered the kingdom of the dead, becoming three powerful small realms in the kingdom of the dead.

Maldraxxus, on the other hand, embarked on a long journey in the boundless universe, taking care of whatever came his way.

Now, Maldraxxus is back!

. . . . . .

(It’s really tiring to help San Shaoyuan set up. I can only say that San Shao’s settings are really fascinating. Douluo’s combat power system is really the weakest in the fantasy world. I try to expand the worldview and settings by myself, There is also this reason.)

In all fairness, after reading the four original works of Douluo, my first feeling is that one is worse than the other.At the same time, I also thought about why San Shao's Douluo Dalu series is getting worse and worse.

1 Run out of inspiration.When the Third Young Master of the Tang Family originally wrote Douluo 1, he never considered a sequel at all. It was just like his other works such as Ice Fire Demon Chef Bacchus Dzi Bead Transformation, it was just a single part.Therefore, the third young master of the Tang family put all his best ideas and best settings into one work. Douluo can be said to be the culmination of the third young master’s works and the pinnacle work. Naturally, Douluo will be very exciting. When it comes to a sequel, all the good ideas have been used up in the first one, so what else can be written?For example, if a classic scene like Xiao Wu’s sacrifice appears a few times later, will everyone still feel it?I definitely don’t feel it anymore.

In fact, this is the case with Dou 2.

Wang Qiuer's sacrifice is based on Xiao Wu's

The relationship between Mu En and Long Xiaoyao is a reference to the Golden Iron Triangle

What the old ghost Zhongli did to Ye Xishui was a reference to Qian Xun Ji's comparison with Bibi Dong's

Orange's obsession with Huo Yuhao is also a reference to Qian Renxue's

But Dou 2 is not as good as Dou 1 in every aspect

Another example is the Soul Master Contest, the All-Continent Soul Master Contest in Dou 1 basically achieves that every game has something to watch, and every game can throw out a gameplay, all have memory points, and all have their own characteristics. Woolen cloth?How many battles can people remember?To put it bluntly, I ran out of inspiration.

So it becomes more and more difficult to surpass nature later on.

2 The protagonist of Douluo Dalu is called Tang San, which is the abbreviation of the Third Young Master of the Tang Family. Therefore, the Third Young Master of the Tang Family has a strong sense of immersion. When writing, he can also be involved in it, so he writes with passion. The following three parts, One is a son-in-law and the other two are a son and grandson, so the sense of immersion is naturally less good.The author's passion has a great influence on the plot. For example, when Tian Xia Ba Chang wrote Yunnan Worm Valley, he wrote it while watching the World Cup, so this volume of Yunnan Worm Valley is particularly exciting.

3. The setting of Douluo Continent is not outstanding enough.In fact, several of the more successful points in Dou 1 are basically gone in the later parts, such as the mysterious soul beasts, powerful hidden weapons, and the friendship of the Shrek Seven Monsters. These points are no longer prominent in the later parts.The status of the soul beasts declined and began to decline, and the proportion of technology increased. Hidden weapons were replaced by various mechas. The friendship between the Shrek Seven Monsters also faded due to the overpowering of the protagonists in the subsequent films. The plot became individualistic like Fighting to Break the Sky. Douluo Continent naturally has a lot less to see.

First of all, it must be said that the proportion of readers who like science fiction is much smaller than that of fantasy, because fantasy focuses on individual strength, while science fiction relies on cold foreign objects, which is not in line with the human genetic instinct [swallowing Tendency], what human beings prefer is their own growth and devouring, and they trust their own flesh more, and external objects are only external objects after all.However, Douluo's later works all follow the nondescript sci-fi route, and naturally many readers are disgusted.Dou 2 is still barely enough, soul beasts and technology account for half, while the latter is completely technological, which is the root cause of Douluo's failure

I know that the third young master of the Tang family did so out of helplessness. He wants to develop with the times and reflect the different styles of each film.

But he didn't actually need to write about mechs.

If you want to write about technological development, you can take the route of biotechnology.For example, the zombie army, the wasteland world, or the infinite plane, even if it is to go to space, there is no need to use any spaceship, it can directly become an Ultraman or open a domain.

In Douluo's later period, the style of science fiction is not science fiction, fantasy is not fantasy, which is a major reason for his failure.

4. Changes in the network review mechanism.At present, the censorship of online articles is becoming more and more strict, and the writing of the third young master of the Tang family is actually subject to great restrictions.In the early days, the third young master of the Tang family could still write violent and bloody plots like Killing the City in Dou 1. However, after the online literature management became stricter, such plots could no longer appear, which naturally limited the upper limit of the works.

5 Audience adjustment.This is also a big point. The audience of Dou 1 is actually an adult group. Although Tang San was a child at the beginning, his thoughts are those of an adult, so the various protagonists' behaviors in it seem relatively comfortable to adult readers. But later on, the protagonists all became real children, and the audience became completely younger, which will inevitably lead to a lot of mature readers who can't stand it.

6剧情节奏变慢。对比下字数就知道了，斗罗1总字数才300万左右，而后面的几部动辄500-600万字数几乎增加了一倍。

This is also the reason why the plot of Douluo 1 is compact, the soul master contest, the killing capital, reunion in five years, Haotian's return to the clan, the establishment of Tangmen, the sea god test, and the final battle.Almost every plot is very clear, the plots are connected quickly, and the plot advances quickly, so it can attract people to watch.

And what about the next few parts?To put it bluntly, it was written purely to maintain the popularity of Douluo's ip itself.

Therefore, the natural plot is very watery and watery, and it is impossible to catch the eye.

7 Changes in mentality.When writing Dou 1, the third young master of the Tang family was still a relatively pure writer. He needed to write novels with exciting plots to attract readers to subscribe, so he would focus on the excitement of the plots.And now?He is already a businessman and has made enough money. Douluo has been adapted into comics, animations, film and television dramas, and has become its own IP.

The fundamental purpose of writing a novel is just to maintain the popularity of Douluo’s ip itself. Whether the writing is wonderful or not is not the most important thing, because even if there is no novel, there are animations and comics to maintain the popularity of the Tang family. Too much thought to portray the plot.

8. Changes in sales models.In the past, Sanshao took the online article subscription route, but now he mainly writes physical books.

In the web mode, the author must ensure that each chapter is wonderful

To attract readers to subscribe to the next chapter

Under the physical book route, as long as readers are interested in the next one, it will be fine.To put it bluntly, the climax cycle is greatly extended, and the natural plot does not need to be so tight

There is no god in front of Tang San in 9 Dou 1, so Tang San can be portrayed as very strong.However, Huo Yuhao cannot be infinitely powerful in Dou 2. He will definitely be compared with the previous protagonists.This must involve the issue of the conflict in popularity and strength between the protagonists of the first generation and the protagonists of the sequel.This is an inevitable problem for any popular sequel.And in most cases, the protagonist of the sequel will be overshadowed by the protagonist of the previous game.

All of the above are the reasons for the decline in Douluo's quality.

The era of Dou 1 was still the early writing style of San Shao, which was relatively mature, so it had a more impressive "life span" section, that is, the kind that was not clear and impressive before, but now it still retains San Shao's writing style. Share the previous shock.For example, the section about Xiao Wu’s sacrifice, I held this book and read that section for 2 hours at McDonald’s.

But you can clearly feel that the Third Master himself has no idea of ​​​​starting a fight 2, so he did not deliberately set up a foreshadowing (except for the six strongest titled Douluo in Wuhun Palace who did not write Star Crown Douluo, this is barely considered a foreshadowing. Well, although I guess I actually forgot).Otherwise, you can’t even explain the top ten ferocious beasts in Dou 6 alone.The biggest contribution of Dou Yi is probably that it has led to a wave of how to write a successful and exciting article in about 2 million words, the rise of a model.

When I look at Douluo, what I look at is actually the idea, the world view and setting, I look at the writing style, and I just look at the tricks

In terms of content, Third Young Master has always used a vaguely informed third-person narrative style, similar to an RPG, so a lot of seemingly important information such as "There are only about 10 titled Douluo in the mainland" are basically hearsay. Feelings cannot make a decision. On the one hand, it is to sway and leave a way out. On the other hand, it is also to create surprises and conflicts.

In a sense, this kind of writing also belongs to [Information Cocoon Room]. You heard a person who is not a titled Douluo say that "there are only about 10 titled Douluos in the mainland." Talk about the lives of dads.People who are not at the same level at all, and the circles are not connected together, so the news is of course different.

When Tang Hao rescued Tang San, he was not surprised in the face of seven titled Douluo.Why?Because he is a person of this level, and his level is completely different from Flender.

However, it was also mentioned later, like when the Wuhundian destroyed the 2 major sects, and before and after the decisive battle, it was mentioned that the Wuhundian itself controlled no less than 20 titled Douluo, but people other than the high-level people of the Wuhundian did not. Just know.

Dou 1 is the ancient cold weapon era, which has developed for about 1 years (maybe less than). It is about 35/65 different from the soul beasts, but the development of the power of the soul master world does not exceed 1000 years.Because the Haotian Sect, the strongest of the above three sects, only became famous (note that it did not take shape, but became famous) in less than 300 years (it is about the same power as Comrade Jianguo).The profession of soul master has been groping, so in 1, the saying that level 99 equals four levels of 4 or so will appear. Only at level 95 can the concepts of soul core, super douluo, and ultimate douluo be subdivided, and only at level 2 can there be concepts such as false gods and demigods.It is understandable that people are evolving and professions are also being subdivided.

Of course, the names of the earliest people were a bit buggy, like Flanders, Davis, and obviously had a bit of the semi-Chinese but not Western style left in Qin Di; Poseidon's One Thousand and One Years was a bug (probably Originated from One Thousand and One Nights), the earliest setting of the martial soul's true form also had a bug, and the twin martial souls were also a bug (I don't know if anyone remembers this. In principle, there are only three twins in Dou 1. The first one was added at the same time due to the The soul rings have gone cold, and there are two remaining: Tang San and Bibi Dong are both God's Favorites; Tang San himself also asked Bo Saixi that even if he had been refining his body for a long time, he would still be worried that his body would not be able to hold on due to too many soul rings. Hold. Bo Saixi's explanation at that time probably meant that there is no need to be afraid, you are a person recognized by the gods. In other words, according to Dou 3, only those favored by gods can actually hold twins. But even so, Tang San is still at level 2 I just started to add the Clear Sky Hammer (although there are objective reasons). After Dou 1, people like Xiao Xiao obviously have some problems. They can't even absorb the metacarpal bones. How can they hold the twins? Of course, they have to say that their genes are stronger after ten thousand years. I have nothing to say)

And the original Shrek Seven Monsters actually only have Tang San, Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong and Oscar, these four are among the few geniuses in the entire series.Tang San is the male number one, and Soul Beast Recultivation is a genius in the first place. If there is no accident, Ah Yin's talent is not worse than Tang Hao's.Ning Rongrong has this kind of pure support from Douluo 1-4, which is a double buff bonus!And the food department like Oscar is the originator. Which food department have you seen in the back with the same outstanding ability as Oscar?And Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ma Hongjun are actually a little bit worse. In terms of talent, they are probably at most similar to Mu En, Long Xiaoyao, Ye Xishui, Kong Deming, and Xu Tianran in 1. They may not be as good as them, because the spirit itself Just top notch, but nothing special. (The analogy here is because 2 and 1 have similar difficulty in cultivation, 2 starts to have training bonuses such as battle armor, and there is no analogy ability in terms of difficulty and speed. 3's cultivation speed and difficulty are obviously simpler, and there are more methods. )

I don't know how Xu Tianran did it, but just because he is paralyzed in the lower limbs, he can become a Title Douluo, just because of this, the three of them Dai Mubai can't compare.After all, Tang Hao cut off his limbs, so the last two soul skills can no longer be used.Strictly speaking, a person who is in poor health should not be able to become a Titled Douluo.
