    Are you sure it is a good decision? You'll keep encountering situations like the one where they only have 1500 policemen for 100 million citizens - vastly inadequate number to even remotely control such a huge population. And the further you go, the more those numbers will be fucked up, with situations where 5000 + 5000 is suddenly equal to a million...

    I admit it's not the perfect solution, but it's the best I can offer at the moment. Also to avoid further confusion, all numbers will be written in Arabic numerals from now on.

    Please just use the correct numbers from future chapters. Just give a heads up on Ch72 saying that the previous numbers were incorrect or something. Please. Honestly the use of million really affect the logic. No point of continuing the mistake as I'm sure general readers would understand after reading your note.

    Thanks.

    Edit: You can request Qidian to change the specific chapter where the first million problem occurred. Sacred Ruins had a mistake corrected after it was brought to translator's notice.

    I will. And sorry again for the mistake.

    Regarding the editing, I've brought this up with my editor and due to the scale of the mistake [because the mis-translation of 万 occur in so many chapters], that might not be feasible until they streamline Qidian's website code.

    Gah, this arc is slower then a snail. Why the writer decided to implement a 4 jump limit and then remove it with plot armor doesn't really fall in my category of entertaining.

    Well, read enough drop it now.

    Lol. I share your frustration. The author spent another volume talking about nothing before something interesting would occur. And yet, when something interesting does occur, he'll fly by it so fast. I don't understand this author sometimes.

    Just curious. It sounds like you're the translator of this novel. Do you talk with the translator of Terror Infinity? You both translate books by the same author, so I was curious if you discuss how it is to translate Zhttty's books. Just curious.

    I am the translator of this book. Nice to meet you :) Well, regarding that question, I'm sorry to say I've not talked to the translator of Terror Infinity. I'm not even sure that translator works under Qidian. And even if he/she does, I'm working under EndlessFantasyTranslation which is a subsidiary of Qidian. So, ya, too many gaps between us.

    Correction here we are not a subsidiary, just a contracted group.

    He doesn't. He post on WW, but he's more independent I think. He has his own site, but updates more regularly on WW.
