  • Between virtual and reality, weaving a gentle growth journey for Xiakong

    At night, the lights of the city are a little blurred outside the window.
    You sit in front of the keyboard, breathing slightly up and down, and a list of materials is quietly displayed on the screen. It is a growth indicator prepared for a character that has not yet appeared in the game-Xiakong.
    This is not a cold accumulation of values.
    It is like a seed with temperature, waiting to bloom on the other side of “unknown time”.
    You read the lines of numbers gently.
    29 low-frequency tidal sail cores, 40 medium-frequency, 52 high-frequency, and 61 full-frequency.
    46 pieces of burning phosphorus bones, 26 copies of iris blooming day, and 60 bundles of golden wool.
    The total of four types of crystallized phlogiston is 175, and the special resonance promoter is 122 doses.
    Finally, it is the number that weighs on the shoulders of reality-more than three million shells.
    This list of materials, like a pass, allows you to cross the boundary between virtual and reality.
    You suddenly realize that it records not only the training plan, but also the commitment you made for “possibilities” – at some point in the future, you will still let yourself believe that even a fictional person is worthy of your gentle care in advance.

    1. Sowing: Infuse care into every name given to her
    Every time you collect a sail core and wait for it to fall, you will be reminded that everything starts from the beginning and requires patience.

    “When I defeat an enemy and pick up a sail core, I remind myself that patience is better than anxiety.”
    You repeat this sentence softly in your heart.
    Just like you in reality, you were afraid to wait in a relationship, but finally understood that every acceptance comes from continuous accumulation.

    “Burning Phosphorus Bone”, “Iris Blooming Day”… These names are not cold props, but like gentle fragments collected from the darkness, allowing you to see the growing skin being slowly smoothed.

    2. Irrigation: What irrigates her special weapon is not numbers, but beliefs
    You prepare simple shackles for her again and again, modify shackles, and then make special shackles.
    You understand that this upgrade process is very much like a person who is locked up from being fragile, to being firmly liberated, and then to being flexible and solid.

    You also prepared crystallized phlogiston and shell coins for her. Hundreds of repeated operations are the rituals you will insist on injecting into the character every day.
    You need her not only to exist in the game, but also to keep the temperature in your heart.
    At least, you have planted a seed of “belief” for yourself.

    3. Growth: Weave her world in the “skill loop” and organize your daily life
    Her resonance loop growth requires:

    A large number of sail cores and phlogiston: every time you upgrade, you go to the dungeon, brush the task, and challenge the abyss.

    “Iris Blooming Day”: You step into the weekly challenge and see that you are exhausted after being oppressed by reality, but you are still willing to open the unknown map.

    Shell coins: It is a small account book of regular life. You calculate it and plan it, as if you are laying a good foundation for the future.

    This is not a simple game experience, but a “growth ritual” woven by your heart.
    You transform every dungeon experience in the “Condensate Field” and “Wheel of Fate” into a reminder for your own life:
    In the anxiety of being torn by reality, you can still stick to your own pace and complete something that will eventually heal.

    Fourth, connection: When people in reality no longer understand, you are still gentle and self-sustaining
    “Why do you spend so much time on games?” A friend asked on WeChat.
    You did not defend yourself, but just said gently: “I am practicing ‘gentle promises’ for myself.”

    Bi Shumin’s care is an understanding without any judgment.
    You understand that these materials, these numbers, and these repeated copies are you practicing to keep trust in “her who may appear”, and not give up on investing in her and the future because of uncertainty.

    You are willing to use the accumulation that is not gorgeous to practice a promise – even if the object of this promise is Xia Kong, a fictional character. But through this plan, you have regained the enthusiasm and expectations that were once folded by reality.

    5. Blooming: Seeing the softness of the future in the accumulation
    Perhaps, when you really draw Xiakong, she is not what you imagined.
    Perhaps, when she appears in the game, you have already accepted her existence. Regardless of the victory or defeat, the score, or the intensity, you only value the warm waiting.
    You sow, irrigate, grow, and connect. Each step reserves a possibility for you:
    The future can still be healed, and the world can still be treated gently.
    This is not just about cultivating characters.
    This is a heartwarming conversation between you and yourself:
    “I still believe that even if it is virtual, I am still willing to give it seriousness and love.”
    Late at night, you close the computer.
    The lights in the room are as gentle as day.
    You say in your heart: “Get ready, Xiakong.”
    Then look up and see a little moonlight on the ceiling.
    As if responding to you-even if it is just a name, it deserves all the gentle care.

  • Between silence and resistance, the truth we have never seen

    We all live in this world full of contradictions and conflicts. People around us are busy doing their own things, as if everyone is chasing an unknown goal, but never looking back at their true direction. The streets and alleys are bustling, but few people have a clear mind to calm down and think about what is hidden behind these prosperity.

    You see, in order to survive, people desperately rush around in the workplace and sacrifice for the so-called “achievements”. Family, love, ideals, all of these have long become blurred in the eyes of these “strugglers”. Human beings seem to be destined to spend their lives in contradictions and helplessness, and are unable to break free from this shackles.

    I often feel that we live in an abyss, or in a huge dream. This dream is full of hypocritical tenderness and empty laughter. Everyone seems to walk with a mask, always playing the role set by themselves and others, but can no longer see their true self. I wonder if we should have some kind of power to tear this dream apart and see the truth behind it?

    However, behind this dream, how many people dare to uncover the fog? People are willing to live in illusions, preferring not to ask for answers that cannot be known, and unwilling to reveal their vulnerable faces. As long as life provides them with enough food, fame and fortune, they will continue to wander in this dream with satisfaction until they die.

    You see, those people, those people I know, live like machines, going through their daily routines day after day. It seems that time does not leave any traces on them, and all emotions and thoughts become insignificant under the wheel of time. They only live for fame and success. They spend their years in empty days until the end, their lives are only meaningless numbers.

    However, everyone knows that an empty life cannot bring inner fulfillment. Even if you have everything, the emptiness in your heart will still force you to find an indescribable sense of existence. It is a deep desire to find your own foothold in this world and give meaning to your life. But this desire is too weak. Even before you realize it, it has already disappeared in your numbness day after day.

    In fact, I sometimes feel a deep regret that our generation has never seen the real light and has never experienced those fearless struggles. Our society has become so vulgar and mediocre. Everyone is repeating meaningless lives and copying the experiences of their predecessors, but never thinking about how to break this mechanical cycle. We live like ants on this land, being consumed silently, but also accustomed to this silent disappearance.

    I once tried to resist, but at that time I did not have the courage to face the real world. My struggle was just my dissatisfaction and resistance to this world in my heart, and I did not really put it into practice. Whenever I see those brave people who fearlessly step forward and bravely face the oppression from society and fate, I feel deeply ashamed. They dared to act, but I could only watch and think silently, with a heart that wanted to break free, but could not find a way to go.

    You see, although we are in an era full of oppression and contradictions, there are still some people who remain sober and firm in this chaotic ocean. They struggled hard in the abyss, trying to get rid of the heavy shackles, trying to lift the thick fog and let the sun shine into every corner. These people are not born great, but they found hope in despair and heard the cry of their hearts in silence.

    And what about us? We are still those who live in our own small world, trapped in our own inner entanglements and conflicts, living confused and blind. We are afraid to face the endless darkness, afraid that the real power will push us into the abyss, but we dare not choose that difficult road. We have no faith and no courage, and can only spend our lives in this hypocritical comfort.

    Someone once said that the meaning of life lies in creation and transcendence. But who can transcend their own predicament? Who can break free from the shackles of society and truly live out their souls? Our eyes are covered and our ears are blocked, as if the whole society is reminding us not to seek those unknown truths and not to challenge those long-established rules. We live so regularly, but so empty.

    Finally, perhaps all I can do is to record it all with words. Words are the things closest to the soul, and they are not as easily erased by society as other things. It can penetrate time, space, all hypocrisy and vanity, and finally let people see the truth of life. Although this truth is often unbearable, at least it is real.

    So, I decided to keep writing, even if this kind of writing may not change anything, even if it is just an empty self-comfort, but at least it can let me see a little different light. In this darkness, perhaps I can find a trace of purity that has never been polluted, even if it is just a little bit.

  • Between fighting and loneliness, Fu Fu’s self-exploration

    Fu Fu is not a character that can be easily defined. Her name sounds like something lighthearted, but her heart is full of complex struggles. There may not be any eye-catching moments when she appears, but in the constant fighting and countless challenges, Fu Fu has found her own way of existence. In this world, the power she possesses does not seem to lie in her extraordinary skills, but in her ability to stick to her truth and loneliness on a battlefield full of blood and chaos.

    Everyone’s life seems to be full of some form of fighting. Some people fight against the outside world, while others fight against themselves deep in their hearts. Fu Fu is obviously the latter. Her skills may be gorgeous, but her growth is not so intuitive. Behind every burst of flames is her constant exploration and redefinition of her heart.

    First encounter: a loner who has never been seen
    In Fu Fu’s world, she is never easily seen as vulnerable. Her skills make her look like a brave warrior on the battlefield, moving forward bravely and invincible. However, behind every skill launch, does anyone know that her heart is always full of anxiety and loneliness? Every time she strikes the enemy, her heart is struggling silently. She is not a natural warrior, but she has to take this path because of the environment she cannot choose.

    Whenever she throws the “popcorn pot” into the battlefield and the flames rise into the sky, Ju Fufu feels an indescribable emotional release. This flame is like the image of her own heart, full of anger, pain, loneliness and confusion about the future. However, with each skill launch, she seems to be constantly approaching herself in battle after battle. Her growth is no longer just to defeat the enemy, but to find the true power in her heart through these endless battles.

    Awakening of self-awareness: Finding the meaning of existence behind skills
    Fighting is not just about skill casting and enemy suppression, it is a process of emotional catharsis and self-understanding. Ju Fufu is silently looking for the meaning of her existence in every skill accumulation and explosion. Each of her actions may be a display of power in the eyes of the outside world, but for her, the deeper meaning behind these skills is that she is moving towards self-awakening step by step through these moments.

    In her battle, the flame is not a hot tool, but a symbol of emotion. In every battle, she will experience inner anxiety and reflection again and again. In her world, fighting is no longer a simple defeat of the enemy, but an awakening of self-awareness. She gradually realized that every time a skill is activated, it is a process of her stepping into the depths of her heart.

    Coexisting with her skills is her constantly accumulating heat. This heat not only represents her energy in battle, but also symbolizes the rising emotions in her heart. The accumulation of heat is not a cold value, but she constantly touches the wounds deep in her heart in battle. In this process, Ju Fufu seems to have learned how to transform these wounds into strength, how to face her fears through fighting, and how to get out of her loneliness.

    From loneliness to dependence: connecting with the hearts of others
    Although Ju Fufu’s heart is full of challenges for self-exploration, she is not a completely isolated person. In her battle journey, she did not always go forward alone. Cooperation with teammates gradually became an opportunity for her to break through her own difficulties. In this team, Ju Fufu found that she was not fighting against fate alone. At every moment of the battle, she could feel the warmth from the support and tacit understanding of her teammates.

    Every cooperation with teammates gave her a new understanding of “dependence”. In the past, she might have thought that she could rely entirely on her own strength to fight, but gradually she realized that the connection between people is also a force that cannot be ignored. Whenever she and her teammates use their skills together, she will feel the kind of spiritual fit that she has never had before. The trust and support between the team seemed to become a light in her heart, guiding her out of the predicament.

    However, this dependence did not make her weak, on the contrary, it made her strength deeper. Through the cooperation of the team, she not only learned how to better use her skills, but also found the true meaning of her existence in the trust of each other.

    Individual and collective: Redefining power in balance
    Ju Fufu gradually understood that true power does not come from a simple victory in battle, but from how to balance the relationship between the individual and the collective. She began to understand that only by establishing effective cooperation with others on the basis of self-cognition can she truly maximize her power. She no longer relies solely on her own strength, nor is she troubled by loneliness. She learned how to accept the existence of others in battle and improve herself through cooperation.

    In Ju Fufu’s eyes, the meaning of fighting is no longer to destroy the enemy, but to better understand the relationship between herself and others through this process. Her skills are not just to defeat the enemy, they are more like an expression of emotion and a way of self-understanding. Every time she launches a skill, her heart becomes clearer. Those complex emotions are released in every burst of fire, and she herself, in the cycle of this process, finds the tenacity and courage deep in her heart.

    Ju Fufu: An unknown growth story
    In the end, Ju Fufu is no longer the warrior who relies solely on skills and strength. She learned to control herself through the combination of inner peace and fighting. Every time she uses a skill, her growth and self-awareness are reflected behind it. From the initial loneliness to the final strength, her journey is a tortuous and challenging road. Through each battle, she not only defeated the external enemies, but also overcame the fear and loneliness in her heart, and gradually found the meaning of her existence.

    On this road of continuous progress, Ju Fufu’s growth is not just for fighting. She finally learned how to talk to her heart and how to find a balance between calmness and passion. Her story has also become a microcosm of countless people finding themselves and transcending difficulties in difficult situations.

  • Behind every decision, how does Ju Fufu walk out of the fog of his heart

    In this world full of turmoil and unrest, Ju Fufu’s name may not be particularly eye-catching. But she has complex emotions in her heart that ordinary people can’t imagine. Her story is not only a struggle of the soul, but also a profound journey of awakening from loneliness. For her, fighting is not only about defeating the enemy, but also a process of fighting against the fear and confusion deep in her heart.

    Ju Fufu never thought that she would become a warrior. She does not have the kind of innate heroic temperament, and even in the eyes of many people, her appearance is not noticeable. However, deep in her heart, there is a voice that constantly questions the meaning of her existence. She is not eager to show her sharp skills, but more like a traveler walking slowly in the barren desert, sometimes stopping, sometimes getting lost, and sometimes setting sail again.

    Her battle has been a test of herself from the beginning. Every time she releases a skill, she is thinking: Who is she? How can she find her place in this cruel world? These questions, seemingly simple, have caused countless waves in her heart.

    Fighting, or escaping from the heart
    Whenever the battle horn sounds, Ju Fufu is like being forced into a mechanical mode of emotion. She knows that she must make a choice. Should she continue to escape or face it bravely? Her skills are powerful, and every attack can cause great damage to the enemy, but she knows that is not all of her strength. Every time she charges her skills, it is a confrontation with her heart. Every time she stands on the battlefield, she must make a quick decision to meet the challenges she cannot avoid.

    However, fighting does not bring her pleasure. She does not enjoy fighting, but behind every decision, she carries unknown loneliness and fatigue. Her skills are like a double-edged sword, which can defeat the enemy and open her inner wounds. She does not enjoy the pleasure of victory, but feels more of an endless pressure and responsibility.

    Ju Fufu knows that fighting brings not only the joy of victory, but also the loneliness that cannot be escaped. Behind every victory, she always silently asks herself: Is this really the life I want? Will this endless battle allow me to find true peace in my heart?

    She tried to escape from the problems that troubled her in the battle, but as time went on, she found that fighting could not really solve her confusion. Although each victory brought a moment of pleasure, she would still fall into deeper confusion and loneliness. She began to realize that escape could not solve any problems, but made her even more unable to face the emptiness in her heart.

    From escape to acceptance: the first step of self-awakening
    After countless battles and thinking, Ju Fufu finally realized that she could no longer continue to immerse herself in the state of self-escape. She knew that only by facing her own heart could she find real strength. She began to learn to accept her own fragility and loneliness. She no longer tried to hide those painful emotions, but learned to coexist with them and try to draw strength from them.

    This awakening made her battle no longer just a counterattack against external enemies, but also a baptism of the heart. Every time she accumulated heat and charged skills, she would realize that this was not just a simple attack, but a counterattack against her inner fear. She began to learn to examine herself through fighting and understand the emotions that had been suppressed in her heart. She no longer regarded fighting as an escape, but a process of self-discovery.

    Every time she released a skill, Ju Fufu’s heart was undergoing subtle changes. She was no longer excited about the enemy’s defeat, but turned her attention more to her own growth and transformation. She realized that the true meaning of fighting was not to defeat others, but to recognize her own fears and hopes through this process, and finally find the truest self.

    Strength in loneliness: Finding warmth from others
    Although Ju Fufu began to gradually realize the power of her heart, she did not completely reject contact with others. On the contrary, she realized that only connection with others could allow her to go further in this difficult journey. She learned to find warmth in loneliness and strength in teamwork.

    In battle, she was no longer an isolated individual, but a member fighting together with her teammates. Every cooperation and support made her feel the contract with others’ hearts. She found that the power of the team came not only from the complementarity of skills, but also from the understanding and support between each other. In the tacit understanding with her teammates, she not only found the source of strength, but also found the belonging of her soul.

    In this process, Ju Fufu gradually let go of her fear of loneliness. She is no longer afraid of contact with others, nor does she feel vulnerable because of relying on others. On the contrary, she has learned how to build deep trust in the team and find her true self in cooperation. Her battle is no longer a simple personal contest, but a common journey to face challenges with teammates.

    From confusion to strength: Ju Fufu’s self-salvation
    After a long period of self-exploration, Ju Fufu finally found the answer in her heart. She realized that true strength does not come from the strength of skills, nor from the recognition of the outside world, but from inner awakening and self-salvation. Through constant fighting and reflection, she gradually found the tenacity hidden deep in her heart.

    Ju Fufu’s story is a journey of growth from confusion to strength. On this road, she experienced loneliness, struggle, and found inner strength. She no longer lives for the evaluation of the outside world, but for herself, to constantly find the most real self. Every battle, every release of skills, is a dialogue and confrontation between her and her inner self.

    She finally understood that the true meaning of fighting is not only to defeat external enemies, but also to better understand and accept herself, and finally find her own peace and strength in countless battles.

  • About the secrets hidden behind the material collection of Xiakong in Mingchao game and the analysis of players’ psychology

    In the game Mingchao, Xiakong, as the latest five-star resonator, has attracted the attention of countless players. Her material requirements seem to be ordinary upgrade materials, but in fact they hide a series of thought-provoking secrets and reveal the subtle changes in players’ psychology. This article will explore the connotation behind Xiakong’s material collection from the perspectives of game design, the logic of material collection and player behavior psychology.

    There are many kinds of materials required for Xiakong’s breakthrough and upgrade, including low-frequency, medium-frequency, high-frequency and full-frequency tide erosion sail cores, burning phosphorus bones and golden wool, etc. The large number is enough to make any player feel stressed. On the surface, these numbers represent the threshold of growth, but in fact they are a test of endurance and mind. Every player is walking through this “digital maze” and trying to climb to the top.

    A closer look will reveal that the game designer cleverly uses the player’s obsession with “completing the task” to disperse the materials into multiple different enemies and levels. This not only prolongs the game time, but also makes players develop a psychological dependence of “constant investment to achieve success”. In particular, the way to obtain the material “Burning Phosphorus Bone” requires defeating the powerful Sighing Ancient Dragon, which has become the “ultimate challenge” in the hearts of many players. The design of this challenge is not only a test of the player’s skills, but also a test of their psychological limits.

    The appearance of the material “Golden Fleece” is more like an obscure symbol. In the game, the Golden Fleece can not only be obtained by exploring the Lina Xi Tower, but also can be purchased with shells in the Laguna City Pharmacy Shop, but the purchase is limited to 15 per week. This purchase limit mechanism seems to give players the freedom to choose, but in fact it creates a “sense of time scarcity”, prompting players to return to the game frequently, forming a cycle of “regular feeding”.

    In the part of special weapon materials, the level progression from simple shackles, basic shackles, modified shackles to special shackles can’t help but remind people of the metaphor of “shackles”. In the process of continuous upgrading, players seem to be bound by this “chain” invisibly. You know that your freedom is restricted, but you have to continue to invest resources to pursue the “ideal weapon” that is getting farther and farther away. This is a profound psychological tug in game design.

    The different levels of crystallized phlogiston – impurities, crude extraction, distillation, and high purity – are not accidental. This progressive design encourages players to experience a gradual sense of growth from simple to complex, from low to high. However, this growth is not linear, but cyclical. You brush materials and upgrade characters, but at some point you will fall into a “fatigue period”, with psychological anxiety and reduced motivation.

    In particular, the way to obtain “Iris Blooming Day” is more symbolic. It must be obtained by defeating the weekly challenge “Wheel of Fate Fragmentation”. The name of the challenge itself is full of hints: the turning point of fate and the break of chapters seem to remind players that the road to growth is not smooth. Every success of the challenge is like finding a new fulcrum in the cracks of fate, supporting the motivation to move forward.

    The existence of recharge channels and discount codes exposes the commercial nature of the game. Players are motivated to pay to obtain in-game resources faster, forming an invisible formula of “payment = progress”. Through this commercial packaging, players’ investment is not only time, but also money, and the interweaving of the two constitutes an unavoidable reality in the modern game ecosystem.

    Interestingly, the introduction of props such as “stuffed meat tofu” in the game to increase the drop of materials has strengthened the concept of “efficiency is value”. Players try to shorten their growth cycle by improving efficiency for a short period of time, but often fall into the constant pursuit of efficiency. Just like the “fast-paced” life in real society, what players experience in the game is not only virtual growth, but also a reflection of the rhythm of real life.

    Overall, behind the collection of Xiakong materials is not only the precise control of the player’s psychology by the game designer, but also the process of self-challenge and cognition of the player. In this game and psychological game, players constantly adjust strategies, manage emotions, find motivation, and try to find their own balance point in a complex system.

    Perhaps, this is the deep meaning of Mingchao’s design of Xiakong’s character material system: it is not only a tool for players to grow, but also reflects the hidden experience of “persistence and anxiety coexisting” in real life. Only by truly understanding this can players gain deeper satisfaction and fun in the game.

    In the future, with the update of Mingchao’s version and the continuous exploration of players, Xiakong’s story will continue. And these complex material collections will continue to guide players to find the true meaning of themselves between virtuality and reality.

  • A profound metaphor of the warmth of human nature and the dialectic of life from the flame skill of Ju Fufu

    On the virtual battlefield of the absolute zone zero, Ju Fufu, a female warrior holding a popcorn pot and covered in flames, is like a symbol hidden between reality and fantasy, which makes people think. Her simple but extremely heavy “pot” is not only a weapon, but also a philosophical test question, testing the patience and resilience of life. Through the analysis of her skills, we seem to be able to glimpse the warmth of human nature, the dialectic of life, and the survival wisdom struggling in the flames.

    1. Four-stage slashing of ordinary attacks, like the gradual and staggered rhythm of life
    Ju Fufu’s ordinary attacks are divided into four stages, each of which is like a test of life. The first knife is a light slash, like a child’s first acquaintance with the world, green and tender; the second knife is a fierce slash, like the hard struggle of youth; the third knife hits continuously, representing the balance and order that is maintained after adulthood; the fourth knife is cut down, like the profound conclusion of life in old age.

    Although the attacking movements are not complicated, it is this progressive rhythm that makes her “hotness” accumulate gradually, as if telling us: the flame of life gathers from bits of enthusiasm and eventually explodes into a prairie fire.

    2. The dance of dodge and sprint: the philosophical interweaving of time and space
    Dodge is a necessary action on the battlefield, but for Ju Fufu, it is not a simple retreat. The fast sprint and the invincible state are intertwined, just like the entanglement of time and space. Her high-speed rotation, which is almost like a storm, is both dynamic and rhythmic. It is a challenge to the limitations of time and space, and a metaphor for life to find its own position in the torrent of time.

    The beauty of flames and rotation reflects the dual desire of modern people for freedom and security: they want to move quickly and avoid danger; they also want to maintain themselves and not be defeated by the outside world.

    3. Special skill flame rotation, a metaphor for the fiery trial of life
    The moment the popcorn pot is waved to perform special skills, the flame rises, and the heat and rotation are intertwined into the examination room of life. The flame is not destruction, but a test, a baptism of the tree of life. The “heat” and “thermal rotation” brought by the skills are like people’s inner burning desire and passion, which heat up repeatedly in the tempering of reality.

    Ju Fufu rotates in the flames, resists interruption, and is invincible for seconds, as if life is tenaciously resisting difficulties, showing the indomitable spiritual power.

    4. Linkage skills and support skills, reflecting the social philosophy of cooperation and dependence
    Linkage skills are not only a combination of combat, but also more like the cooperation and dependence between people in society. Ju Fufu’s popcorn pot slash, interspersed between teammates’ skills, jointly breaks through the enemy’s defense line. This is a tacit symbiosis, a struggle to counter the difficulties.

    Support skills are more tender: when teammates are attacked, she stands up to parry, using the imbalance value as a measure. Isn’t this an interpretation of friendship and trust? Every protection is a delicate presentation of social emotions, proving that being isolated and helpless is not the fate of mankind.

    5. The symbol of the core skill “Popcorn Pot”, a burning life tool
    When the popcorn pot stays on the field to attack automatically and continues to accumulate heat, it goes beyond the scope of a simple weapon and becomes a symbol of life. This seemingly ordinary kitchen utensil turns into the core of the flame in the battle, silently guarding teammates, inspiring the rise of heat, and bringing the glory of critical hits and finishing moves.

    This is like a seemingly ordinary little object in daily life, but in fact it carries deep memories and emotions, and becomes a link for people’s spiritual sustenance and the continuation of life.

    6. Philosophical mapping of imagery and game mechanics: flame, heat and the reincarnation of life
    Orange Fufu gains heat when entering the scene, and the whole team benefits from her flame, which is like the inheritance and encouragement of life. The high temperature additional effect makes the finishing move ignore the enemy’s resistance. This “ignore” seems to declare: in the face of hot life, obstacles are nothing but illusions.

    The values, levels, and cooling times in the game are no longer cold data, but the quantification of life experience, and the results of time and experience. Every skill upgrade is an accumulation and sublimation of life experience.

    VII. Conclusion: The spark of life in the flames of Ju Fufu, a hidden allegory of modern life philosophy
    Ju Fufu and her popcorn pot let us see the rich symbolic meaning behind a virtual character: the flame not only burns, but also purifies. It is not only a symbol of destruction, but also a starting point for rebirth. Her existence is a portrayal of modern people’s search for self, pursuit of hope and warmth in difficult situations.

    This flame, with the enthusiasm and efforts of countless people, lights up the seemingly indifferent and mechanical world, reminding us: even the simplest utensils can burn the deepest life force.

  • A glimpse of the entanglement between capital and human nature in the contemporary virtual world from the complicated list of Xiakong materials

    In this era where everything can be digitized, the newly launched five-star character “Xiakong” in the game “Mingchao” once again gives us a glimpse of the subtle entanglement between the modern virtual world and real capitalism with its complicated material requirements. Just like a long book full of numbers and symbols, this list called “Xiakong Material List” is not only a boring guide for cultivation in the game, but also a microcosm of the modern people’s spirit and capital game, which is interesting and intriguing.

    A closer look at this list can be said to be layered and complex. Materials such as “low-frequency tidal eclipse sail core”, “medium-frequency tidal eclipse sail core” and even “full-frequency tidal eclipse sail core”, with names such as “burning phosphorus bones” and “golden wool”, remind people of the mysterious and complex images in classical poetry. It has both science fiction and classical charm, and is quite interesting in the “game of words” written by Qian Zhongshu. The name of each material seems to remind players: This is not only a game, but also a cultural codeword, inviting you to enter a familiar yet unfamiliar situation.

    The requirements for the quantity of these materials in the game have almost become a metaphor for modern “capital accumulation”. Look at the tidal sail cores from “low frequency” to “full frequency”, the number increases step by step, just like the spiral rise of capital, one ring after another, accumulating more and more. How similar is it to the bottomless pursuit of resources by companies in real life? However, the stage of the game is virtual, and the cruelty of reality is even better. Every few hours of work in the game by players is like contemporary young people repeatedly working overtime in the workplace, consuming the already scarce life time.

    What is worth pondering is the existence of “recharge discounts” and “discount codes”, just like real-life promotions, cleverly converting “time cost” into “money cost”, on the one hand inducing players to accelerate growth, on the other hand gradually turning players into gears of the “capital machine”. This “buying time” mentality reflects the common anxiety in contemporary society: time is never enough, and the only solution seems to be to buy time with money, or even buy back some of one’s own freedom.

    The “burning phosphorus bones” and “golden fleece” interspersed in the materials are like rare treasures in fables. The former comes from the “sighing ancient dragon”, the latter is produced in the “Lina Xi Tower”, and the pharmacy “rosemary” is sold in limited quantities. Such settings are nothing less than a portrayal of monopoly and scarcity in the capital world. As the famous economist once said: scarcity determines value, and value shapes power. In the game, you must do everything possible to defeat powerful enemies and collect materials; in reality, people must also do their best to compete for limited resources and opportunities, and the same goal is achieved by different means.

    What is particularly amusing is the “stuffed meat tofu” prop in the game – it can increase the material drop rate by 50% in a short period of time. Isn’t this little virtual delicacy a symbol of all kinds of “quick success secrets” in real life? Whether it is various efficiency tools or the popular “time management method” in life, they are all trying to use extreme efficiency to offset the constraints of the environment on people. However, as the complex semantics described by Qian Zhongshu, there is often anxiety and loss behind efficiency. The so-called “improving efficiency” may be a silent plunder of time and life.

    This list of materials is like a magic mirror, reflecting the contradictions and struggles of our time: the virtual world combined with technology and capital constantly traps players with seemingly harmless “growth systems”, while also exposing the desire and helplessness of success in human nature. We want to control the progress of the game, but it is difficult to escape the shackles of the rules of the game. The boundaries between life and games are becoming increasingly blurred, and the standards of success and failure have become both real and illusory.

    If Qian Zhongshu were here, he would probably use a subtle and spicy prose to combine the complexity of the “Summer Sky” materials with the oppressiveness of modern life, satirizing the absurdity behind this endless “upgrade” and “recharge” game. Perhaps he will remind us: virtual prosperity cannot cover up real loneliness, and “growth” in the game is ultimately a debt of time and emotion. Only by staying sober and humorous can we maintain our self-preservation in this complex world.

    In short, this list of “Summer Sky” materials is a wonderful competition between capital and humanity in the virtual world. It allows us to see the complex social logic behind technological progress, and also inspires us to rethink the meaning of freedom, time and life. As Qian Zhongshu said, “What makes a person a person is his humor.” I hope that we can retain a sense of humor and wisdom beyond the complex materials and numbers, and face the ultimate game of life with ease.

  • A delicate exploration of Feng Jin’s growth story and inner world on the Star Dome Railway

    Feng Jin, a character endowed with wind attributes and memory destiny, will soon debut in version 3.3 of “Honkai Impact 3: Star Dome Railway”. Her name is as light as the wind, but she carries a heavy burden of growth. Her story is a profound dialogue between every growing soul and fear, courage, glory and hope. As a player, you will accompany her through one tortuous journey after another, and feel the waves and tranquility in the depths of her heart.

    The growth of every life is inseparable from tempering and breakthrough. Feng Jin’s cultivation materials are like the texture of her life, and are every stone on her growth trajectory. 56 pieces of “Fear Tramples Flesh and Blood”, the name of this material itself implies the pain and struggle of growth. Fear is the shadow of growth, it is everywhere, but only by facing it can we get out of the haze. Feng Jin’s story tells us that fear is not just a burden, it is also a reminder, so that we can better cherish the preciousness of courage.

    The 71 pieces of “courage tearing the chest” are like the power that erupts when facing challenges countless times during the growth process. Courage is not fearlessness, but the power to keep moving forward when afraid. Every accumulation of courage materials is a tough sculpture in Feng Jin’s heart. There is no shortcut to her growth, only countless days and nights of persistence and hard work.

    And the 73 pieces of “glory baptism body” are like marks engraved on Feng Jin. This glory is the glory after going through wind and rain. It is not an empty name, but the best affirmation of one’s own efforts and dedication. Glory is accompanied by responsibility, as well as more expectations and challenges.

    “A cup of drunken time”, 65 cups of such materials, like a cup of strong wine, carry the taste of history and the precipitation of emotions. It is not only a prop needed for cultivation, but also a symbol of past memories. Feng Jin’s growth path is full of such memories and insights, sweet with bitterness, bitter with sweetness.

    It is not easy to collect these materials. Players need to go deep into the dark depths of the “Pinoconi Grand Theater”, cross the treacherous terrain of the “Dispute Ruins Xuanfeng City”, and step into every corner. Every battle is not only a contest of skills, but also a test of will. Feng Jin’s growth is gradually completed in these cruel tests.

    Her exclusive light cone “May the rainbow light stay in the sky forever” is a key to carry hope and dreams. It requires 20 pieces of “Fear Crushing Flesh and Blood”, 20 pieces of “Courage Tearing Chest”, 14 pieces of “Glory Baptism Body” and some rare materials. The light cone is not only a weapon for fighting, but also the sustenance of her soul and the source of power for her to keep moving forward on the Star Dome Railway.

    Breakthrough means that she will cross one boundary after another. Every breakthrough requires players to prepare sufficient materials and credit points. From level 20 to level 70, each stage is the improvement of Feng Jin’s vitality, and it also symbolizes her tenacity and courage in the face of difficulties. The road to breakthrough is a process of spiritual transformation and a ritual of growth.

    In addition, Feng Jin’s trace materials are like the footprints of her life. 41 pieces of “Fear Tramples Flesh and Blood”, 56 pieces of “Courage Tears Chest”, and 58 pieces of “Glory Baptizes Body” all show the ups and downs she has experienced. Rare materials such as the seeds of thinking, the sprouts of Manas, and the Alayahua, like the light of luck in her growth journey, illuminate the way forward.

    Cultivation in the game is not just a simple numerical improvement, but a profound experience of the character’s heart. Feng Jin’s story reflects the inevitable fear and struggle, courage and glory, and those warm and complex memories that everyone has in the process of growing up. Her journey is a microcosm of everyone’s inner growth.

    As players, we are not only bystanders, but also participants. Accompanying Feng Jin’s growth and collecting those precious materials is not only a task in the game, but also a journey of the soul. Every breakthrough and every advancement is a chapter of growth that we write with her.

    May Feng Jin’s story touch the softest part of your heart and awaken your understanding and resonance of growth. Every step she takes on the Star Dome Railway carries hope and guides the way forward. Let us work together to protect this pure and tenacious beauty.

  • A brief discussion of the spirit of the times and the dilemma of human nature behind Ju Fufu’s skills

    When people talk about games today, they often only see the entertainment and pastime on the surface, but ignore the hidden era imprints and spiritual symbols in them. Ju Fufu, a character with a name that seems lighthearted and funny, is actually a microcosm of contemporary digital culture and a reflection of people’s desires and predicaments in the flashy world. If we don’t delve into its skill mechanism and design philosophy, how can we get a glimpse of the contradictions and struggles in today’s society?

    1. Ju Fufu: Fire-attributed agent and “flame” in real society
    Ju Fufu is good at fire attributes, and his weapon is a “popcorn pot”, which is very symbolic. Fire represents passion and life, but also means destruction and anxiety. The appearance of the popcorn pot is nothing more than a dose of irony: the utensil originally used for food and clothing has become a weapon for fighting, indicating the absurdity and deformation of life.

    Isn’t this a portrayal of our times? Material wealth has not brought spiritual peace, but has distorted the simple life that should have been simple into a complex game. The existence of Ju Fufu is the epitome of this game. Her skill mechanism seems to be an endless struggle, seeking a balance between heat and attack power, just like people in reality struggle between anxiety and desire.

    2. Metaphor of heat mechanism and human nature
    The setting of “heat” is very symbolic. It is both an accumulation of energy and an accumulation of emotions. In real life, people’s hearts are always on the edge of tension and depression, and they will explode when the heat is high, just like Ju Fufu’s powerful skills after reaching a certain “heat”.

    But behind this explosion is a deviation from rationality and a loss of control of emotions. Game designers visualize its mechanism to remind players: although heat can bring great power, there is a risk of destruction if it is out of control. This is exactly the true portrayal of the mental state of modern people: the superficial “power” conceals the inner anxiety and uneasiness.

    3. The social implication of dodge and invincibility
    Ju Fufu gains invincibility when dodging. Behind this design is the adjustment of tolerance for failure in reality. Nowadays, the pace of society is fast, and people are easily knocked down by pressure, but they seek a chance to breathe. Invincible dodge is the “breathing space” given to players by the game, and it is also a tolerance for mistakes and fragility in reality.

    This seemingly benevolent design actually reflects the harshness and helplessness of modern society on individuals. Everyone needs an “invincible” moment to avoid harm and continue to fight. The dodge mechanism of Ju Fufu is a metaphor for people looking for shelter in the wind and rain.

    4. Group relations and social contradictions in joint skills

    There are rich joint mechanisms in Ju Fufu’s skills, which shows the importance of teamwork. However, this kind of cooperation is not unconditional harmony, but is based on a delicate balance between interests and conflicts. The same is true in real society. People cooperate in interest relations, but conflicts are inevitable.

    The increase in the “imbalance value” in the joint skills implies the inevitable tension and conflict in the group. Even if they cooperate, conflicts are still lurking in it. Through this setting, the game design allows players to experience the complex interpersonal network of real society and perceive the dual aspects of cooperation and conflict.

    V. Ideals and Realities of Skill Growth System
    The skill level upgrade of Ju Fufu symbolizes the desire for growth and progress. Modern society vigorously promotes the value of growth, but the process of growth is often full of hardships and frustrations. The upgrade of skills is not just the growth of numbers, but also a portrayal of the players and characters going through hardships together.

    Behind this growth is the collision between the pursuit of ideals and reality. Players achieve higher levels of strength by constantly accumulating resources, but they also have to face the limitations of the “wound” effect-that is, the defects and injuries in reality cannot be easily erased.

    VI. Imagery: Virtual Aesthetics and Reality Perception
    Ju Fufu’s “Imagery” system closely combines skill effects with visual experience. It not only meets the aesthetic needs of players, but also reflects the interweaving of virtuality and reality in modern digital culture.

    In reality, people rely on visual symbols to understand the world, and so do games. Imagery gives life to cold numbers, narrowing the distance between players and characters, as if looking for a sense of existence in the virtual world. Behind this aesthetics is the anxiety of contemporary people about identity and the value of existence.

    VII. Summary: Ju Fufu and the living conditions of contemporary people
    Ju Fufu, as a game character, is far from a simple entertainment tool. Her skill system and mechanism design reflect the contradictions of contemporary society, people’s inner struggles and the complexity of collective relations. The accumulation and explosion of heat, the invincibility and fragility of dodge, the cooperation and conflict of cooperation, all make people see themselves.

    In this rapidly changing era, everyone is like Ju Fufu, carrying a “popcorn pot”, wandering between heat and calmness, trying to find a way to survive in the absurd reality.

  • The spiritual dilemma and the reflection of the times in modern games from the accumulation of complex materials in Mingchao Xiakong

    Recently, the game Mingchao has attracted considerable attention. In particular, the complicated accumulation of materials for the cultivation of the new five-star resonator “Xiakong” has become the focus of controversy and complaints among players. Looking closely, these piles of materials are complicated and progressive, with low-frequency tidal erosion sail cores, medium-frequency high-frequency and even full-frequency, all of which symbolize the increasingly heavy burden on players; and rare materials such as burning phosphorus bones and golden wool are more like bait, tempting players to indulge in endless brushing and pursuit. If you look at the accumulation of materials in this game from the eyes of Lu Xun, you can see the deep spiritual dilemma and the reflection of the times behind the design of modern games.

    To cultivate Xiakong, you must collect low-frequency, medium-frequency, high-frequency, and full-frequency tidal erosion sail cores, the number of which can be as many as dozens or even dozens. The large number makes people think of the busyness and complexity of the world today: people are entangled in layers of affairs, and if they want to move forward, they must overcome many obstacles. The accumulation of numbers in the game seems to be a microcosm of the mental burden of modern people. Players follow the so-called “growth” in the virtual world, just like the nameless people who are bound by various rules and expectations in life, walking in endless anxiety and fatigue.

    The names of “burning phosphorus bones” and “golden fleece” sound mysterious and poetic, but in fact, the way to obtain them is a long and boring grinding, which consumes the time and patience of players. This reminds people of countless helpless individuals in reality who have exhausted their energy for the “rare materials” of life, but still lament that the harvest is meager. The game is named after materials, as if it condenses the suffering of reality into a string of numbers. Players are both participants in the game and a portrayal of the dilemma of reality.

    Even more annoying are the materials for special weapon cultivation: simple shackles, basic shackles, modified shackles, and special shackles. The names of these “shackles” have their own symbolic meanings. They are like shackles, encircling the players’ hands and feet, locking the freedom and happiness that should have been there into layers of demands and tasks. Game designers cleverly use the metaphor of “shackles” to make players sink deeper and deeper in the pursuit of power, unable to extricate themselves. This is the most alarming aspect of modern games: they are no longer just entertainment, but the creators of spiritual shackles.

    The introduction of recharge systems and discount codes has dragged games into the vortex of capital. The so-called moon phases, points, and tokens, which seem to be complicated numbers on the surface, are actually converters from real currency to virtual currency. Players invest real money in the virtual world in exchange for short-term power and pleasure. However, this pleasure is as short-lived as fireworks, and in the end, only emptiness and regret are left. Games have become tools for capital manipulation, and players have become consumers who are coerced.

    The material name of “Iris Blooms Day” could have been an expression of a beautiful image, but it was limited to the cruel conditions that must be defeated to obtain it. For this “beauty”, players have to challenge their limits repeatedly, exhausting their time and energy, just like workers in reality who struggle for their dreams but suffer repeated setbacks. Games and life are so similar.

    “Stuffed meat tofu”, a seemingly friendly little prop, is actually full of irony: it allows players to increase the material acquisition rate within a limited time, but also accelerates the oppressive rhythm of the game. This is like the “efficiency first” logic in modern society, pushing people into a more intense competition, making it difficult to breathe. Everything in the game is nothing more than a projection of reality and an amplification of reality.

    These layers of material requirements, and the high cost of time and money, make the game no longer a pure entertainment, but a silent spiritual battle. Players struggle in the ocean of numbers, not only for growth in the game, but also to find the rare satisfaction and meaning in reality. However, this satisfaction is often short-lived, and the design of the game pushes them to the next more difficult challenge.

    Mingchao Xiakong, on the surface, is a glamorous game, but behind it is a portrayal of the mental state of modern society: anxiety, fatigue, pursuit and loss intertwined. The game production team cleverly created invisible shackles with a complex development system to lock the players tightly. Just like “Ah Q” in Lu Xun’s works, who anesthetized himself in false victory, the players in the game world are also struggling in the digital maze.

    Finally, I hope we can see clearly this network of virtual and reality, and be alert to the spiritual crisis of the game while not losing our expectations for a good game experience. The story of Mingchao Xiakong is ultimately a mirror that reflects the contradictions of the times and the struggles of people.
