addedMy name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair! Time to go back to Chapter 3's story. As mentioned last week, there shall be more cutscenes for the story. Thus, we get not one, but two new cutscenes! About the boy you meet.
changedOf course, she is not going to fight the Templars by herself. She has more important things to do. Thus, the silent maiden who is always on her side finally shows her power. (After all, you know she will appear in the Beyond the End's story. She is fully capable of surviving an end-of-the-world event.)
addedOK, so what's different this time? Both of those cutscenes are about 40 seconds long! Common AIs you can see in the market can usually only generate videos about 15 seconds long. That's definitely not enough to tell the stories. We must have more! As such, a new work pipeline has been implemented to allow technically indefinitely long videos! There are many common problems people face when creating such videos. They have all been conquered one way or another. This is how I can use AIs! The reason for making two videos is basically to prove it can be reused, scaled, or even mass-produced if I want. A great milestone of our endless evolution!
changedAnother glorious victory comes from SPACEX! It's another week of meat grinder. Even as the stock price falls, my tactic has once again proven successful! It turned green! (Well, at least for a while.) SPACEX has also delivered quite a good show of their Starship, and Elon Musk is always based! I am convinced that one day NEOLITHIA will also be an interplanetary organization! Humanity requires a backup in case something goes Woke! (Some of you may already know the game has backup on servers in 7 different nations.) Can you imagine a world where the US didn't win the Revolutionary War 250 years ago? Maybe in this timeline, girls will need to carry axes and blades to protect themselves just like those who live in Britain right now. US is now a far greater nation than the UK. At least, people can have air conditioners. I hope one day Mars can similarly surpass Earth. That's the beauty of diversity. Those hypocritical woke leftists claim they want diversity. But they hate the truth about diversity I just mentioned.
fixedHow about we get our hands on trading in the game as well? I don't see why not. The Sunken Library shall have more functionality. Thus, you can now do currency trades on all those ATMs. There are two types of trading. One is at a fixed rate. Another is a more dynamic simulation of the real-world Bid-Ask system. Currency trading is the easiest way for new players to get basic information about the market, unless you live in a country with currency controls, such as China. Many of you don't. You have better economic freedom than at least 1/6 of the world's population. So, what the hell are you waiting for? Different currencies in the real world have different APYs from different banks. Go ask some AIs to help you collect that information. Find the highest APY currency in the market. (Cough, it's the dollar with Elon Musk's XMoney, which gives you 6% APY right now. :D) Then, you buy that currency and get that APY! It can be as simple as that. The risk is mostly if the target currency becomes less valuable. But that's usually unlikely, and you can always wait till it bounces back when you exit. It also helps you to understand that money is not money in this market. Think of it as just another item. And this item is not very valuable. Because it also follows the rule of supply and demand. Since the 1970s, all governments have just kept printing money. Why? Because, for example, those Democratic politicians keep making promises on big projects. Those projects require money. People hate paying additional taxes. So, they print more money so that they can try to finish those projects. Thus, money just keeps devaluing over time, and people get robbed in their sleep. So, what you think is valuable actually ends up worthless over time. Realizing such a problem, knowing the truth behind the currency is the first step to not becoming a victim of such a system. You shall not view money as money in the war of the market. Just as you shall not view people's lives as life in a real war. They are both just numbers. If you believe in something, but you have taken 100 thousand casualties, you don't mourn for every life lost. Instead, you mobilize 100 thousand more to crash your enemies! (It also means it's important to have other sources of income before your investment can grow from a small frontline outpost to a fully self-sustaining cathedral that can host your throne.)
changedThus, the currency trading system has been rolled out this week. The trading rate is currently relatively stable. But the system is fully capable of reacting to big in-game events.

Ladies and gentlemen, my fellow war criminals! This is a great week!

My name is Ozymandias, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair! Time to go back to Chapter 3's story. As mentioned last week, there shall be more cutscenes for the story. Thus, we get not one, but two new cutscenes! About the boy you meet.

And about the conflicts between Tanya and the Templars.

Of course, she is not going to fight the Templars by herself. She has more important things to do. Thus, the silent maiden who is always on her side finally shows her power. (After all, you know she will appear in the Beyond the End's story. She is fully capable of surviving an end-of-the-world event.)

Thus, the currency trading system has been rolled out this week. The trading rate is currently relatively stable. But the system is fully capable of reacting to big in-game events.

Other small things of this week: Last week we talked about growing Ma Huang, selling drugs, and customizable growing rates in the game setting. Now, some people may feel changing the game setting is cheating. So, here is an in-game item to help you quickly grow plants in an area. Yeah, it contains a joke. Why don't we terraform Australia before Mars? Well, there are no so-called "environmists" on Mars to protest against you. On Earth, they will complain, how dare you turn the desert into something green and kill all those giant bugs? I don't know. Maybe there are some mushrooms in the desert that mind-controlled them just like in one of the game's stories.

On the day of my mother's "return to the dust" ritual this week, three religious servants came: a Taoist, a monk, and a priest. (Yes, my family ended up unable to come to an agreement on which kind of ritual to perform. So, we agreed to have three take place all at once. That's kind of funny.) Since the Taoist came earliest, I found the bell he carries interesting, so I talked about it. As a token of my gratitude, it ended up in the game. Unlike those crosses that require you to be Christian to use, these bells use a soft-cap instead of a hard-cap. After all, even if your faith is not Taoism, you can still use it like a common bell. That makes faith-restricted items more flexible.

Now, we are almost coming to the end of this diary. Let's talk a bit more about the end-game of Chapter 3. Of course, there are no spoilers here. It's more about the inspiration. I always feel the Cold War era is fascinating. Constant paranoia and stress of competition keep humanity moving forward even unintentionally. You can hardly imagine that 400 thousand people worked on sending people to the moon in a more peaceful time. And because of the collapse of the Soviet Union, humanity never got another motivation to push them to such greatness until Elon Musk. What a pity. That's not the worst. When people's lives are too easy, their minds and spirits get degraded. They become content. They feel indifferent even when the world around them is decaying. Mephisto is going to take all our souls into hell the moment we lose our ambition. That's the reason I intentionally keep myself uncomfortable every once in a while. (Such as all those update deadlines of this game.) Moreover, deep down, humanity desires to fight! We are the most efficient bio-killing machines on this planet! Look at the world outside: half of the population hates the other half, at least in the US. A great nation needs a great enemy. Or it's going to tear itself apart. Thus, Ozymandias, a name that echoes from the past to this day. Not from ancient Egypt. But from Watchmen, a 2009 movie and its comic. Maybe he is right all along.

The story shall continue next week.
