He read the information about the Evil God again, and Chen Yi spent nearly five minutes digesting it and accepting it.
Furthermore, after his chat with Salted Fish, he also gained a lot of knowledge about Evil God.
The Evil God novel website's full name was the Evil God VR Virtual Novel Reading Experience website.
After a reader enters the Evil God website and chooses a book, there are two reading modes. One is text-based reading, and the other is reading in the VR virtual scene on top of the given text. It could be considered a simulated life experience, where the readers adopt the main character's perspective. However, the looks of the characters that appear in the book are related to both the author's settings and the reader's imagination.
Through reading, the reader's 'Likability', 'Immersion', 'Coolness Value', 'Plot Twist', 'Expectation Value', 'Emotional Resonance Coefficient', and so on will be collected. Following a fixed ratio, there will be a comprehensive score. As long as one of the scores reaches 80, or if the comprehensive score reaches 2.5, the author could obtain the author's benefits and earn wish points. The wish points could then be used to exchange for the protagonist's attributes, skills, specialties, and so on.
It was somewhat different from what he had imagined, but it was still extremely awesome!
He had previously thought that if he could exchange for the protagonist's skills, attributes, and specialties, then if the protagonist was absolutely invincible, like a "Near God" existence, then could he...
Of course, this was just an idea. In order to achieve "Absolute Invincibility", one must first have the ability, qualifications, and enough wish points to be able to do so!
To judge an author's abilities, one would have to look at the author's level and the novel's comprehensive score.
This was the defined limit.
An Evil God author's level started from L 0, with no upper limit requirements; and the book's comprehensive score was at least 0, with no upper limit requirements.
The higher the author's level, the higher the comprehensive score of the book, the number of wish points that could be obtained would increase. The more wish points obtained, the level of skills that could be exchanged for with the wish points would be higher, and the skills would be crazier.
For example, Chen Yi's level was L 0, and he had earned 80 wish points. He could only obtain 10% of the abilities that San San's golden finger has, and this was worth 79 wish points.
If he wanted to obtain all the abilities of the golden finger, he would need to reach 50,000 wish points.
If he wanted to exchange for "Absolute Invincibility" and "Near God" skills, he would need close to one million wish points. Moreover, the book's comprehensive score must be greater than 15!
'Therefore, only when your book has enough potential, the more wish points you obtain and the higher your level, you would then be able to exchange for even more insane skills!'
Of course, Chen Yi was not too clear on the exact calculation and judgment. Salted Fish would probably be clearer on that matter. He could ask Salted Fish.
Salted Fish was an editor, and Evil God seemed to comprise exclusively of editors. On top of that, Salted Fish was also a cute girl! It really made Chen Yi happy!
After ending his casual chat with Salted Fish, Chen Yi silently picked up his cigarette.
"Pah!"
As the flames danced, he began to slowly puff out smoke.
"So, I guess I can't get everything in one go! One million wish points, a comprehensive score of 15. If I don't satisfy one of them, I won't be able to exchange for an "Absolute Invincibility" setting... looks like I still have to think of a way to obtain more wish points. Although the author's level is still linked to the comprehensive score, there doesn't seem to be any restrictions in the early stages..."
Chen Yi was now at L 0, with a balance of 1 wish point.
To upgrade to L 1, he needed to accumulate 150 wish points.
If it was L 2, he would need to accumulate 300 wish points.
Almost every time he leveled up, he would need twice as many wish points as before! After passing L 5, he would still be restricted by evaluation.
L 5 had a minimum comprehensive score of 3, L 10 had a minimum comprehensive score of 6, and so on and so forth.
A conservative estimate was that if each of his books had one and a half times more wish points than his previous book, then he would need at least one to two books every time in order to level up!
On the other hand, the wish points for L 0 were very few. The skills that could be exchanged for at this level were either 10% of the special body skills or normal changes to the physical body.
The benefits at this level would not allow Chen Yi to achieve much. He not only needed to change his body but he also needed money!
It seemed that he needed time to obtain wish points and level up!
The benefits of the L 1 seemed to be much more lenient, and there were also some material attribute benefits that could be exchanged for.
However, what should he write?
Chen Yi wasn't sure. He touched the ring on his hand, intending to study the situation of the other authors on the website.
This ring wasn't just an identity authentication, it was also the key to entering the Evil God website. Only with the key could one log into the author's platform and contact the editor.
In other words, other than Chen Yi, no one on Earth could enter the Evil God website. They couldn't even see the ring on Chen Yi's hand and the web page in front of him!
With a casual touch, he entered the Evil God's interface.
The computer screen was filled with fresh flowers, and the announcement banner of the Evil God website occupied almost a third of the screen!
"Congratulations to the author, I Am Big Bird, for obtaining the first author benefit!"
"Congratulations to the author, I Am Big Bird, for obtaining the public praise for his work, "I Have A Golden Finger", and earning "A novel that is worth reading, the written erotica is infinitely enjoyable, shameless, and audacious!" comments from the readers!"
The corner of Chen Yi's mouth twitched as he looked at the data of his work.
Comprehensive Score: 2.1
Work Achievement: Instant fame!
Work Review: a must-read melodramatic book. Written erotica is infinitely enjoyable, shameless, and audacious!
His book had reached 30.8 billion views, and even the book reviews had exceeded 10 billion reviews!
If this data were on a real-life website, it would be almost unimaginable.
However, it could exist in the Evil God, and the number of readers was even beyond imagination.
There were countless popular reviews, and Chen Yi casually took a look.
"I'm on my knees, this is simply a masterpiece! My blood is boiling, and I almost couldn't hold it in!"
"It was very immersive! I've finally experienced some high-difficulty stimulation! I've already read it five times!"
"I've fallen in love, San San the Taoist priest, come and get me!"
After reading the book review, Chen Yi felt a little embarrassed. Did it need to be so exaggerated? 100% good reviews... he felt all kinds of exhilaration in his heart.
Closing the commentary section, Chen Yi went to read the other authors' books.
Half an hour later, he expressionlessly sniffed and felt as if his eyes had been sullied by something.
What the h*ll was written here! Even the books of some authors with good reviews were all rubbish. There were no highlights, no excitement, no climax, not even any ups and downs in the plot!
Now he finally understood why his own book was filled with good reviews and was very popular.
He wanted to point his middle finger at the other authors on the Evil God website and look at them with the expression that said, "Forgive me for being blunt, but all of you are trash!"
That's right, other than Chen Yi, everyone else was trash. They were all worthless!
He did not know where this group of authors came from. They did not even have the basic first three chapters set up to lure the readers, dramatic irony, or have the character pretend to be weak in order to defeat the enemy easily.
Moreover, he also felt that some of the authors were writing carelessly. Their forewords did not add up, and every sentence had an error.
"It's not worth mentioning!" Chen Yi snorted, "I feel as though I exist like a god in the Evil God website. Those ignorant authors serve as a foil to make me look better."
Although doing so seemed to be a little unfair to those authors.
However, this was a good thing.
Previously, for Chen Yi, if those authors were all big shots, or if they wrote books that were better than their previous books, then Chen Yi would not stand out at all! Because the readers would have long been used to that sort of quality, they would even become pickier with what they read.
It was because of how "bad" their works were that Chen Yi's "I Have A Golden Finger" was so outstanding to the readers, and that benefited him a lot.
Each book on the Evil God website was worse than the last, and the books were terrible from the start to the end.
After ending the thought of reading those books, he began to think about what to write for his next book.
"I'm now at L 0, and I would probably need one book to level up, but what should I write?" He thought about it and habitually scratched his hair and patted his stomach.
When his hand landed on his entire abdominal muscle, Chen Yi's eyes sparkled!
Got it! Wasn't this easy?
