Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The week before.
The second volume of “The Coiling Dragon” was released.
Under Lilith’s guidance, 500,000 copies of “The Coiling Dragon” were printed and sold in various bookstores, but even so, it was not enough for readers.
All kinds of pirated copies eventually emerged, and the legal department received a continuous stream of customer complaints.
In the end, the price of the book went from $19.99 to $1,999 per book.
It was simply hard to find it on the market.
The popularity of “The Coiling Dragon” exceeded everyone’s expectations.
Putting aside the writing style, its smooth plot and its carefree rhythm made this book a rare treasure in this world full of traditional fantasy literature.
In a world where everything was gold, people would not think that gold was very precious. Instead, if a small piece of iron suddenly fell from the sky, it might become a treasure.
The mainstream media like Chicago Daily even interviewed the masses about “The Coiling Dragon”.
“Before this, my son never knew what his goal was and never read a book until ‘The Coiling Dragon’ was released. He actually learned to love reading now. This is too incredible! I read ‘The Coiling Dragon’ too and it’s truly magical. I’m really looking forward to volume three!”
“OMG, I absolutely love this book! I’ve read a lot of books in my life, but I’ve never read anything like ‘The Coiling Dragon’.”
“I feel this book gave me confidence. I beat up my bully today, so he won’t bully me anymore.”
“I got back together with my girlfriend today because of it.”
“‘The Coiling Dragon’ is so my savior, literally. I used to be a drug addict and the only thing I wanted to do when I got home was cocaine or drink. That was all I could think about before. I would’ve stolen money or hurt someone just to get what I wanted. I’m just regretful that I didn’t find such a good book sooner. After reading ‘The Coiling Dragon’, I actually succeeded in quitting. I’m already 10 days sober now, which is more than I could’ve ever accomplished. Now, all I can think about are the plots in ‘The Coiling Dragon’. I really want to read the third volume!”
A long confession suddenly exploded on the internet.
At first, there were many people who were skeptical and checked the IP address of the person who had posted the long comment.
In the end, they verified that everything was true.
Everyone felt that it was quite unbelievable and amazing that a mere book could be so magical that it could change one’s mental state.
Soon, more news like this emerged.
All these doubts were silenced when the Iowa News Channel reported, “Since the release of ‘The Coiling Dragon’, the crime rate in Iowa has dropped by 15 percent. Thefts, prostitution, and other crimes were significantly reduced. There are even fewer police on the streets at night. Reliable sources show that the Italian Mafia, who used to cause trouble during this time, locked themselves at home to discuss and read ‘The Coiling Dragon’. They actually stopped going out to terrorize people for a book…”
The news anchor could not keep a straight face in front of the camera.
Although this was edited out the next day after the live session, a lot of people managed to record the full version.
Iowa Evening News also reported similar statistics. “With the release of ‘The Coiling Dragon’, the number of drug addicts in our city has plummeted by 10%. Many of them have voluntarily entered rehab. This is a truly rare phenomenon.”
At this time, people recalled the ex-drug addict who posted the comment online.
They were all a little dazed.
This was a little too astonishing.
..
At this moment, Fang Yuan, who was at the party, hung up the phone in a daze and could not help but laugh. He did not expect that “The Coiling dragon” would have such an effect.
