What's up, folks!

In this update, we will bring you a new difficulty level - Reincarnation Level 9. Under this difficulty, the enemies' attributes will not continue to increase, but all their skills will be strengthened. In addition, challenge events will be more difficult! Please be careful. At the same time, the boss [Gluttony] will be randomly added to the new adventure as a boss.

We also introduce three new weapons: [Dragon Breath], [Revealer] and [Storm Chaser]. We hope you all enjoy them!

Furthermore, we have added a new gameplay option called [Mission from Above] of [Bizzare Dream]. Players can undertake missions, complete them and receive bonus effects. However, failing a mission will bring certain penalties, so players need to be more cautious. To adapt to the current game pace, we have introduced the mechanism "DMG Resistance" in this update and made adjustments to some spiritual blessings.

Thank you for your love and support!
