shock!The code machine is actually an alien tentacle monster!

Chu Shou still can't figure out how he became No. [-] on the new list.

The next day when he came to the Internet cafe, the first thing he did when he opened the webpage was to find the ranking rules for the newly promoted list.

Pulling the list to the bottom, he saw that it was described in the rules.

[Articles published within 30 days of applying to become an author (the vest cannot be listed on the new author list) are sorted by points, and will be removed from the list after 31 days]

Article points?This is something Professor Chu hadn't paid attention to before.

He turned the mouse, returned to the top of the page, and found his own article.

According to the list, his points are 34.It is indeed very high, much higher than No.713.

How is this score calculated?

He found another integral calculation formula.The formula is very complicated, and there are many strange symbols in it that he can't understand.

The explanation below the formula is also very lengthy.The densely packed words make me dizzy just looking at them.

Professor Chu tried to let the optical brain analyze it for him and then told him. After listening for a long time, he still didn't understand.

"In short, it's related to article collection, word count, clicks, and the number of author's column favorites, right?" he asked Guangnao in his heart.

Optical Brain gave an affirmative answer.

Chu Shou then clicked on the articles that were ranked behind him on the list of newcomers.

To his surprise, the No.2 article "They All Regret After I Was Reborn" had more favorites, clicks, and comments than him, but less points than him.

As for the third, fourth, and fifth places behind, the article data is not as good as him, and the points are far behind him and the second place.

Professor Chu clicked on his and No.2's respective author columns, and found that the two columns had about the same number of bookmarks.

Case solved.

If favorites, clicks, comments, and actions are excluded, there is only one answer left.

Article word count.

After carefully looking through the list of newcomers, he found that the word count of most of the works is less than 10, and most of them are 3-5w.

Other than him, the one with the most words is only 20w.

In other words, he climbed to the top of the new list by relying on his word count!

Thinking about it this way, Professor Chu felt a lot more relieved.

It seems that it was just a mistake in decision-making, he shouldn't have released so many updates in one go.His grasp of the market and his vision for cold subjects should be good.

Now that the reason has been found, it is enough to avoid repeating the same mistakes next time.

Professor Chu switched to his newly registered trumpet and began to conceive his next novel.

He let the optical brain scan all the content in the comment area of ​​"Gale", and after statistical analysis, he came to the following conclusions.

36% of the readers said that after reading it, their blood boiled and they felt the power and throbbing of life. 17% of the readers feel anxious when the protagonist suffers setbacks and are excited for him when he succeeds. 10% of readers praised him for his rigorous writing, and he looked up a lot of information at a glance. 8% of the readers shared their experiences and feelings about riding horses.

The rest of the comments are either meaningless "scattering flowers", "urging updates", or praising him as a codeword machine and a conscientious author.

Chu Shou understood.

It turns out that when readers read competitive articles, they not only see the competitive event itself, but also the hard work and sweat of the protagonists, the hard work on the field, and the joy of success.

Highlights: passion.

That being the case, then this time he will write an article that has nothing to do with passion.

And it can't be too professional, and it can't give readers the feeling of "wow, the author has checked a lot of information", "wow, it's awesome", and "I don't know what's wrong".

If professional knowledge is not involved, it is all made up.

Although it is made up, it can't be made up too wildly.If it makes readers feel fresh and interesting, something they have never heard or seen before, that would be bad.

It should not only be as unenthusiastic as possible, plain and boring enough, but also let readers fully realize that he is making up irresponsible nonsense.

So what should I write?

Professor Chu soon had an inspiration.

correct!Just write about his daily life on the home planet!

Isn't his home planet B512 just a fantasy world for the Blue Stars?And his daily life on the mother planet is unremarkable, like a running account, isn't it the opposite of passionate!

With this in mind, Chu Shou immediately began to write.After making some magical changes to the social form and technological development of the home planet, and then adding my own real experience, I started creating.

Recalling the happy life in the home planet, Chu Shou couldn't help but work harder and harder.At the end of the writing, my tears were tearing up, I wish I could change 1000w words on the spot, harvest 1000w of electricity and jump back to the mother star immediately.

a few hours later.

Professor Chu hadn't finished writing yet, but a system prompt popped up in the lower right corner of the computer, telling him that the computer time was over, and asked him if he would continue to use the computer.

Professor Chu looked at the remaining balance of his membership card, sighed, got up and got off the plane.

When he came to the front desk, it was the familiar little brother who helped him check out.

"Off work again?" The younger brother smiled at him.

"Hey, I'm off work." When Professor Chu heard this statement, he also found it very interesting.

He comes to the Internet cafe to report on time every afternoon, and sits in front of the computer and writes for hours.Isn't it just like going to work as a social animal?

"Your card is almost out of money, do you want to recharge?" The little brother raised his eyelids and looked at him.

"Yeah, yes." Chu Shou took out a handful of change from his pocket.Coins and banknotes were added, and 20 yuan was put on the table.

The little brother's eyes stayed on the pile of scattered coins, and he suddenly asked, "Do you live in a garbage dump?"

"Ah?" Chu Shou was stunned for a moment, then nodded honestly, "Yes, how do you know?"

Brother: "Looking at the direction you went back that day, it seemed to be a garbage dump..."

Professor Chu waited for him to recharge himself, but the little brother didn't go to pick up the money on the counter, but turned around and took out a lunch box from the freezer behind.

Transparent glass lunch box, rectangular.It's the kind of lunch box you see everywhere.

"Huh?" Professor Chu looked at the two rows of round things in the lunch box and asked curiously, "What is this?"

"I made kimbap." The little brother said, "I accidentally made too much, let me eat it for you."

Before he finished speaking, he seemed eager to clarify, and quickly added, "...you come every day, and I'm pretty familiar with you. My other friends don't like this."

Oh, it turns out that the dark green thing on the outside is called "seaweed", and the white grains inside are rice.

Chu Shou had heard of "kimbap" when he was reading novels, but he hadn't actually seen it, he only knew it was a kind of food.

He happily took the lunch box: "Then thank you!"

The glass lunch box is cool to the touch and very comfortable.Professor Chu left happily holding the lunch box.

The glass door of the internet cafe was pushed open and closed again.

The wind chime on the door made a clear and crisp sound.The chirping of cicadas and heat waves sneaking in through the crack of the door are the taste of summer.

It's really getting hotter.

The little brother squinted his eyes, looking at the slender and nimble back.

There was a smile on the corner of his mouth.

……

The garbage dump was not far from the Internet cafe, and Chu Shou quickly returned to his spaceship.

The glass lunch box also maintains an ice-cold temperature.Professor Chu opened the lid, took out a piece of kimbap from inside, and studied it carefully.

Seaweed kimbap is round and round, from the outside to the inside, first seaweed, then rice, and then... what is this?

The optical brain scans and recognizes: "This is a carrot."

Professor Chu picked out a carrot, put it on the glass cover, and picked out another soft pink thing: "What about this one?"

Guangnao: "This is ham sausage."

Professor Chu: "And this one?"

Guangnao: "This is meat floss." "This is mayonnaise." "This is lettuce."

Oh!

With the help of optical brain, Professor Chu fully understood the internal structure of kimbap.

"Then how is this done?" He tried to restore the disassembled kimbap to its original round shape, but failed after several attempts.

Optical brain: "The relevant data has not been downloaded yet, please search again after the host connects the optical brain to the Blue Star network."

Professor Chu: "...Oh."

He pursed his lips in disappointment.

Now that the spaceship lacks energy, the optical brain cannot remotely access Blue Star's network.That's why he goes to Internet cafes every day.

On the one hand, it is to update the code words, and on the other hand, it is also to allow the optical brain to download some necessary knowledge to survive in Blue Star through the computer.

For example, encyclopedias of animals and plants, daily necessities, basic human knowledge and so on.

In low energy consumption mode, the download speed of the optical computer is not high.Therefore, the current knowledge of the optical brain can only help him recognize the names of things like carrots and mayonnaise.

If it is on the home planet, the highly developed optical brain network system can not only help him find the video of the production process of kimbap in an instant, but even start the virtual reality simulation on the spot, allowing him to follow the tutorial in the simulated environment and make a copy himself.

If the mass-energy conversion system is turned on, then what he makes in the simulated environment can even turn virtual into reality.

If you take the things on Blue Star as an analogy, it is almost equivalent to a 3D printer.

Of course, the technological level of the mass-energy conversion system on planet B512 is several levels far beyond that of the Bluestar 3D printer.

The gap is like the stone tools used by forest ancient apes and the large particle colliders used by modern scientists.

……Ugh.

Thinking of his mother planet, Chu Shou couldn't help but feel melancholy again.

It's dinner time.Professor Chu habitually came to the terminal operating platform of the self-circulation ecosystem, ready to obtain nutrient solution.

On his home planet, eating is a very simple matter.

Residents of planet B512 believe that wasting time on eating is a very unwise choice.So everyone is used to drinking a bottle of nutrient solution every day.

Thanks to the stable operation of the self-circulating ecosystem, after Chu Shou came to Blue Star, he also maintained the habit of his home planet.

But now, standing in front of the terminal console, he hasn't pressed the "get nutrient solution" button for a long time.

He turned to look at the glass lunch box.

A rectangular glass lunch box with two rows of gimbap neatly stacked inside.One of them was very irregular in shape and seemed to be loose at any time. It was the one he had just disassembled to study.

It took him a lot of effort to pinch it back, and he barely pinched it into a ball.

But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't make the log-like shape in the lunch box.

... How much effort did the little brother spend to make such a perfect circle!

The more Professor Chu thought about it, the more curious he became, and couldn't help but pick up another one from the lunch box.

The seaweed bambap was cool, Chu Shou moved his nose, and smelled it closely, trying to distinguish the smell of seaweed, rice, and carrots.

The smell of human food was not alluring to him.

Even if he put it in his mouth with common sense and chewed it carefully, Chu Shou didn't have the slightest thought of "ah, this food is so delicious".

For him, kimbap is just something that can be eaten, has no harm to the body, and can produce different tastes.

For the creatures on planet B512, the act of "eating" has been cut off from physiological pleasure.

They don't get pleasure from eating like the Blue Stars.

That's why they pay more attention to efficiency and only rely on nutrient solution for a living.

Chu Shou held his cheeks with his hands and chewed slowly.

This is the first time he used a human body to eat human food in a human way.

It's a wonderful experience.

Food rubs against the teeth and escapes from under the teeth as you chew.Ingeniously, the human tongue happens to be able to stop the food from escaping.As long as you touch it lightly, the food will be pushed back under the teeth by the tongue and continue to be crushed and chewed.

Oh, but beware, be sure to quickly retract your tongue!

"Woo..." Chu Shou covered his mouth with tears in his eyes.He didn't expect that human teeth look round and blunt, but they are actually so sharp!

His movement of retracting his tongue was only a little slow, and the edge of his tongue was bitten by his teeth!

It hurts!

The mouth is suddenly filled with the taste of iron ions.What's this?

Light Brain: "This is the smell of human blood. Human blood contains a lot of iron ions, mainly in the form of ferric oxide. It has the same composition as 'rust'. Therefore, humans often think that blood has the smell of iron rust."

The timely science popularization by Optical Brain made Chu Shou suddenly realize.

It turns out that humans bite their tongues when they eat.really weird.

The way of eating is so troublesome, and it may hurt yourself. Why do humans still eat like this?

Dazed and confused, Chu Shou reached out to the second piece of kimbap.

Then came the third block, the fourth block, the fifth block...

Although he can't understand human eating behavior, but through the research just now, he has realized that it took a lot of energy for the little brother to make this box of things.

He didn't want to waste his brother's kindness.

So he seriously ate the whole box of kimbap.The cheeks are sour after eating, and the stomach is slightly bulging after eating.

"Ugh..."

His stomach was sour and swollen, and he felt that he was filled from the inside out.

Deep down in his heart, there was an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.

——This is, are you fed?
