Rorschach didn't have high expectations for the first issue of the magazine.
Using a certain tycoon as a selling point, he reported on the dangers of being addicted to the lottery, before changing the topic to mention that he had drawn a descending humanoid form from the God of Games' random divine grace …
Of course, he 'accidentally' neglected to mention how unbelievable the hit rate was, as well as the terrible tragedy that followed.
Still, if it could be verified, the rating of Lori's divine grace would rise rapidly, and so would the rating of the Church of Games.
It was the same as a company announcing the winner of a three-million-dollar prize. Even if everyone knew that the chances were slim, a company that could give out such a prize was at least powerful and generous.
Not only would it attract attention, but it would also inspire yearning in the hearts of those who read it.
As for whether it could attract the talents in demand, that would depend on luck. It would be even worse if there was another batch of tycoon lottery winners who were poisoned.
Still, Rorschach didn't have high hopes. The most important thing now was to do more publicity.
At the very least, it wouldn't be reliable for other journals to do the publicity.
It wasn't a matter of convenience, but the fact that your words came from someone else's mouth. It was fine if they were on good terms and there was no competition, but if there was any friction in the future, there would be trouble.
Moreover, if there was a problem with the other party, such as the most common fake publicity or receiving bribes, your publicity would be questioned.
That was the main reason why Rorschach didn't hesitate to pick the journal.
Even if there were only a few dozen people in the journal, it was very important. It was extraordinarily important, and it shouldn't be taught to others.
Publicity was linked to ideology and the Church's attitude towards both internal and external affairs. It was related to the entire organization's line and political stance, and couldn't be sloppy at all.
Didn't you see how those in charge of publicity in history were very close to the leaders, or even the second-in-command or the leaders themselves? For example, Goebbels of the Third Reich, the head of publicity during the War of Resistance against Japan … Ahem, to avoid being checked, let's not make an example or extend it.
Roxia shared his thoughts with his younger sister and the others, and they all agreed with him.
This was something that had to be done by the core members, and the others were not confident that they could do it well. Leaving it to Rorschach, who had experience in this area, was the best choice at the moment.
Rorschach had just started and was lacking in both material and content. While he was thinking of inviting other descenders to write for him, he once again discovered the advantages of his own work.
Perhaps the other Descenders were nothing in his eyes, but they were the upper echelons and core members of the church. No matter how he looked at it, the previous teaching journal staff was only slightly better than the outsourced ones.
Due to the distance between their identities and professions, there was a problem in the development of this work from the very beginning.
It didn't seem reliable for a subordinate to make a request to his superior, especially one that was separated by so many layers.
After checking the previous journals, this was indeed the case.
Apart from Isabella who wrote a bunch of random things … and many of them were her own game guides and random notes, the others didn't contribute anything at all.
As for Isabella …
"1st July, opened three chests, but didn't win. The best one is a pair of straw sandals. After wearing them and activating them, they can create a forcefield that protects your feet for three minutes. Even nails won't stab your feet … But I can just buy a pair of iron boots."
"2nd July, I received my monthly contribution for this month. 29 consecutive draws, but didn't win … Tomorrow, I'll find Big Bro for a free meal."
Alright then, she was from the Moonlight Tribe, while he was from the Sunlight Tribe. He was broke on the first day of his salary.
"3rd July, I borrowed some money from Finn. 3 draws, but still didn't win … I received an ancient dudou. It's pink and fits me really well. I'll wash it and use it as underwear. I'll save money on underwear again."
"4th July, I failed to ask Lori for next month's monthly contribution in advance. I borrowed some money from her through my personal connections. 2 draws … What the hell is an ancient God Equipment RPG? It's spicy and doesn't taste good at all. "
"5th July, everyone is avoiding me again. I can't get any money at all. It's time to go back to work … I don't want to work. (rolling on the ground)"
How could something like this be published in a teaching journal? Forget about his own image, wasn't he afraid that the Game Church's image would be completely destroyed?
When Rorschach saw this, he rubbed his head that was getting more and more of a headache. His expression was one of "Are you kidding me?" and "You actually dared to print and sell this?"
After confirming that he wasn't mistaken, Roxia unhesitatingly gave his first order as the editor-in-chief. He ordered Roxia to retrieve that issue of the journal at all costs, and completely seal … no, burn this dark history.
"How could something like this be published in a journal? Didn't anyone stop her? "
But from the looks of hesitation in the other editors' eyes, Rorschach knew that he had asked a stupid question.
Isabella was his superior, the Game Church's Deputy Chief Editor. Who would dare to stop her from writing? Perhaps no one would even dare to change it.
Rorschach finally understood why the journal was so dismal.
Since the superiors were messing around, the subordinates could only muddle along. Their white-collar wages were calculated day by day.
Rorschach unhesitatingly listed Isabella as a customer of the new journal and canceled his previous plan of asking her for help. Rorschach focused his attention on the content of the first issue.
"Let's put the third part of the master's manuscript."
Some people couldn't be expected, while some people could be trusted just by thinking about them.
The master delivered the manuscript the day after Rorschach's manuscript.
It was a rather interesting and practical essay on the common plants of Ansorenne. It was the master's personal experience. It mentioned more than 30 common plants, herbs, fruits, and trees, their common topography, medicinal value, food value, taste ….
Cough, it seemed to be a little biased. The taste seemed to be the main focus, especially the vivid description of the sweet taste of the Dragon Banana. It made one want to personally try it.
Among the 37 plants, 13 were bananas. Among them, there was no lack of aggressive magic plants and poisonous plants. There were also some that grew in extremely harsh environments. It really wasn't something that ordinary Descenders could eat.
It also mentioned the cooking methods of various materials. It was exquisite and accurate. There was also a picture of a unique plate. There was a faint Zen feeling.
"So the master is also a vegetarian gourmet."
But considering the master's race, this was to be expected. Perhaps bananas and other fruits were like rice to Asian Earthlings.
"This is not bad. Thank you, thank you."
Food programs were becoming more and more popular. Coupled with a certain degree of practicality and beautiful pictures, Rorschach felt that the quality of this manuscript was exceptionally high.
It was very likely that many people would buy the journal for this manuscript and use it as a reference book.
Then, he saw the next manuscript. It was from the County ….
"Tsk, what the hell."
He directly threw the manuscript into the trash can. It was full of "Isabella is the cutest" and "She looks like a naughty little devil when bullying her brother". How could it be used?
"Damned sis-con, you deserve to be bullied to death."
Currently, Roland only knew these few Descenders. Su Nanna had also invited him to write a manuscript. However, she faintly felt like she was a top student, so she refused.
"My identity is rather special. The less information I leak, the better. But anything I write might leak information about myself. "
Rorschach didn't insist on it.
After that, Rorschach asked Lori about Su Nanna. Only then did he learn that Su Nanna was the leader of the Temple Knights. However, she was also the leader of the Punishers … Her job was probably to do some dirty and tiring work, such as hunting down traitors and so on.
The main point of the first issue of the journal was the truth behind the "Ghost in the Fog" that Rorschach himself had written.
Su Nanna was right. When an author wrote a manuscript, he would more or less leak information about himself, such as personality traits, personal hobbies, commonly used weapons, class traits and so on. These could all become weaknesses that the enemy could exploit.
Rorschach wasn't foolish enough to leak information about himself, nor would he reveal that the divine musket could only fire once a day. He also wouldn't reveal that his Honesty talent could ignore the interference of the demonic fog.
He simply described the thousand-mile pursuit from his own point of view, emphasizing the righteousness of his vengeance as a member of the Church of Games, as well as the tragic state of the dwarven village after it was massacred.
The main point of the description was that he had carried out the dying wish of the Seventh Descender, Dert F. Su. He described the hunt with the main theme of "the slayer deserved it".
It was just a detailed and indirect description. The trivial details of the pursuit highlighted the hunter's determination for vengeance, as well as the prey's uneasiness and despair.
It was ordinary on its own, but when combined with the previous article that exaggerated fear, it was like a horror movie where the victims recorded the ghost in the fog.
Cruelty, calmness, and simply completing one's own vengeance and work. That was the perspective of the hunter.
From Rorschach's point of view, the article was actually quite boring. But it was placed at the top of the list, and even used the cover page as a preview.
"Since the Ghost in the Fog is hot news right now, wouldn't a hunting record written by the Ghost in the Fog be very eye-catching? Doesn't this count as riding on my own popularity? "
