Amidst this digital renaissance, the Shark Thiren, Ellen Joe, emerged reborn, her essence sharpened in the forge of innovation. Rumors had danced like fireflies in the night, now solidified: her redesign promised to unlock dormant strengths, a metamorphosis that amplifies combat prowess to ethereal heights. Shadows of the past dissolved, replaced by currents of raw energy that ripple through every skirmish. Alongside her, three new agents stepped into the limelight—Ju Fufu, an S-Rank enigma; Pan Yinhu, an A-Rank sentinel; and Yixuan, whose arrival on June 6 brought Auric Ink, a unique attribute weaving Rupture into the fray. Her attacks, a dance of ink and life force, draw from both Attack and Max HP, etching devastation with each stroke. 🖋️ The cosmos expands further with new Disk Drives for legends like Yunkui Tales and King of the Summit, their tales intertwining in a celestial ballet.

The map itself unfurls new landscapes, realms where adventure blooms like wildflowers. Waifei Peninsula stretches with untamed beauty, its shores kissed by salt-laden breezes; Aerospace City pierces the heavens, a metropolis of steel and dreams; and Failume Heights rises, a sanctuary where secrets slumber in every corner. Navigation evolves into a seamless dream—a 3D map enchants fast travel, Fairy's autoexplore glides with newfound grace, and the Suiban Temple Management feature unveils itself, a sanctuary for strategy and reflection. Each innovation whispers of journeys untold, where paths converge and diverge in unexpected ways.
