First, there are a few things I need to state upfront, lest some readers remain unaware—assuming, of course, that this book genuinely has any readers at all.
The prose within this book is quite poor, and its plot conception is merely mediocre, thus it cannot promise readers a conventional reading experience.
Furthermore, any tropes readers might seek—such as invincible protagonists effortlessly triumphing over adversaries, harems of pure maidens, or gender-bending reverse chases—will not be found here; for such content, one must look to other works.
Lacking any significant readership, this work will naturally never be listed for sale; after all, who would monetize a piece with no traffic?
The silver lining, then, is that it costs nothing to read, which is fortunate, as money holds considerable importance in modern society and should not be squandered.
Moreover, the author is already quite advanced in years, having long since passed the age where one would pander to others for financial gain.
Nonetheless, reading it will undoubtedly consume your time, and in a certain sense, time is far more precious than money.
The author is an incredibly arrogant, twisted, and obstinately difficult person.
While possessing a few ideas, they are, for the most part, quite unremarkable.
The author harbors no ambition to create a timeless masterpiece, a literary classic, or even a widely popular work.
Consequently, it is virtually impossible to find anything truly enjoyable within these pages.
One might even perceive the very existence of the author and their work as solely intended to irk readers.
Only when a reader is unconcerned by such prospects does this chapter, and indeed the rest of the book, warrant further perusal; otherwise, it is merely an exercise in self-inflicted vexation.
This work is a fictional story created within the ‘Bloodsnow’ timeline of the ‘Red Myth’ worldview, conceived by the author, Feng Zhong Bai Ye.
All its content bears no relation to reality; please refrain from correlating any aspects with real-world events or people.
Should any similarities arise, they are to be regarded as purely coincidental, rather than intentional.
The ‘Red Myth’ worldview is a narrative where the author has integrated a myriad of strange and wonderful ideas accumulated since childhood, categorizing them into various timelines.
Certain fundamental settings, such as the geographical layout of the Celestial Sphere and its ethnic composition, are entirely consistent across these diverse timelines.
The ‘Bloodsnow’ timeline represents an alternate timeline of the Celestial Sphere, branching off from the ‘Crimson Day’ timeline at a specific divergence point in Saintly Era 1650.
This divergence hinges on whether ‘players’ were born in Saintly Era 1650; it was precisely the advent of players that created this split in the ‘Crimson Day’ timeline, leading to the emergence of the ‘Bloodsnow’ timeline.
Serialized since October 18, 2014, this work was originally titled ‘Sacred Massacre’ before being renamed ‘Avalanche Moment’.
Its update schedule remains erratic; typically, the author updates whenever time permits, yet whether this translates to daily, monthly, or yearly updates is entirely beyond control.
Thus, even without a fixed update schedule, this book is still actively serialized, not concluded.
Given its protracted serialization, the writing style of certain volumes may exhibit distinct differences.
The author has endeavored to present the content of each volume through varying styles, though the ultimate effectiveness of this approach remains uncertain, as the author themselves is still experimenting and exploring.
The author will periodically revise the content; therefore, it is advisable to refresh the page before reading to ensure you access the latest modified version.
As the text is riddled with numerous typos and grammatical inconsistencies, please point them out promptly if encountered, and the author will rectify them at the earliest opportunity.
The author has no need for meaningless gestures such as monthly passes, likes, or monetary donations, nor is there any requirement to add this book to reading lists; it is, after all, merely a terrible book.
Please refrain from imposing these burdensome expectations upon the author, who neither wishes to pander to readers for such things nor alter their writing approach because of them.
The comment section and ‘吐槽’ (tucao/rant) function are available for all readers to use freely, but please do not post advertisements, mutual promotions, or illegal content.
The author will periodically clean the comment section; if a reader’s content is removed, it is not due to dislike but simply routine maintenance.
This work possesses countless shortcomings, and criticism from anyone is welcome, though praise is entirely unnecessary.
Any content praising this work or the author will be periodically prioritized for removal.
Valuable criticisms and suggestions will be retained, as will insults—especially if they are particularly witty; however, mundane insults will be deleted.
Given the sheer volume of setting details, all of which are contained within the final dozens of lore volumes, this section is exceedingly intricate and complex, spanning over a million words.
Readers should approach it with discretion, or choose to skip it entirely, though some plot points necessitate knowledge of the corresponding settings for full comprehension.
These settings will also be updated periodically; thus, to access the most current versions, refreshing before reading is again recommended.
To prevent an overwhelming amount of information, this work will gradually divide certain settings into more detailed breakdowns.
This work features no true protagonist; each volume’s content stands independently, yet a certain degree of interconnection exists between them, making it feasible to skip volumes if desired.
Certain social theories, political views, and the extreme words, deeds, and radical ideologies of some characters presented in this work are solely for plot development.
They do not reflect the author’s personal endorsement or support of such theories and views, nor does the author condone the expression of such behaviors and extremist thoughts in reality or their misuse outside of this work.
Content involving murder, arson, sexual violence, robbery, and the like within this work is for plot necessity.
The author vehemently opposes such illegal acts and any real-world implementation thereof.
Certain organizations and characters represent highly abstract concepts, existing purely within this fictional narrative; please do not project them onto reality, much less quote their doctrines or statements outside of this work.
Any religious content presented is entirely fictitious and not intended to offend anyone’s religious beliefs.
Within this work, certain punctuation marks serve special purposes: single quotes (`‘’`) are typically used to denote the first appearance of a specialized term or specific content, while square brackets (`【】`) generally indicate a character’s ‘inner communication,’ which is content not expressed through language, text, or facial expressions.
All potential sensitive words, uncivilized language, and spoiler-related content will be replaced by ‘■’ to obscure the corresponding text, including profanity and the true name of the Polaris Dean.
Certain overly aggressive or sensitive content will undergo harmless processing based on its method of expression; consequently, readers may find some plot transitions unusually strange.
This is because such content involves elements deemed aggressive or sensitive, and while the plot itself remains unaltered, the mode of expression has been adjusted, as exemplified in Chapter 66 of the ‘Blood-Stained Wall’ volume.
This work redefines certain terms found in reality; please do not associate them with their real-world counterparts.
For instance, terms such as ‘Old Driver,’ ‘Scientism,’ and ‘Academy of Sciences’ within this work possess meanings distinctly different from their related real-world vocabulary.
A unique writing approach will be employed for certain characters; for example, any descriptions pertaining to the appearance of Long Xiao, the Grand Dean of Xuanji Star, will be omitted, as will the true name of the Polaris Dean.
Anyone is welcome to submit settings they deem interesting; if sufficiently compelling, they will be considered as reference and potentially implemented.
However, please do not offer settings from other works, as the author will not adopt similar concepts as references, deeming it disrespectful to other authors and an act they oppose.
Certain scientific theories presented in the plot are not accurate in reality and exist solely for narrative purposes; under no circumstances should they be introduced into the real world.
Please refrain from quoting or using images of the flags, emblems, and other insignia of the various organizations depicted in the plot outside of this work, to avoid unnecessary disputes and misunderstandings.
This work currently has no definitive completion date and will therefore remain in a state of long-term serialization.
Suggestions from anyone are welcome; while the author may not necessarily act upon them, they will be considered as references for discretionary review.
Please do not dwell on the translation of certain terms, such as why the original ‘Myth of Blood’ (血的神话) is rendered as ‘Red Myth’ instead of ‘Blood Myth’.
Ultimately, the interchangeable usage of ‘blood’ and ‘red’ is a stylistic preference the author deeply enjoys.
This work has undergone numerous revisions, affecting both its settings and main plotline.
After countless reflections and attempts, the author has finally ascertained the story they truly wish to tell: it is not a grand epic, but merely the tale of a group of ordinary people.
They may possess extraordinary qualities, yet ultimately, they remain ordinary individuals, powerless to alter everything they desire to change.
Indeed, the author intends to write a story about ‘humanity,’ and nothing more than a story about ‘humanity’.
Finally, a note: this book has no official reader group; the author prefers not to elaborate on the reasons, having already stated them too many times.
—No one has ever paused here for you, nor has anyone ever gone to their death alongside you.
