P.S: Due to the fact that the game still needs time to optimize its loading resources, we strongly recommend that players temporarily install the game on a solid state drive (SSD) in order to get a better gaming experience. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused, and will work to optimize and improve the gaming experience over time. In addition, due to some of new content and triggered quests and events are not compatible with the old archive, we will recommend that you open a new archive to play, thank you!
*New Content and Improvement:
New Content:
1) A new large scenario has been added - Pirate Island.
Pirate Island is located in Salt Lake Bay, southeast of the The Ogayn Heath, and the famous Strong Spirits and Scimitar gladiator arena is situated on the island. A group of pirates and fishermen live together on the island and maintain a delicate peace.
Some interesting stories are taking place here, many of which await your participation.
2) A new medium-sized scenario, Castle Curtis, has been added.
Located in the eastern hinterland of The Ogayn Heath, Curtis once belonged to a local fallen noble, but somehow fell into disuse overnight and is currently an ownerless fort. Many merchants and travelers in a hurry would come to rest their feet inside the tall walls of Castle Curtis, and gradually, it became a small marketplace where you can find all the goods you need, as well as good tavern service. Unfortunately, Castle Curtis is having a quiet time, and nothing is currently happening there. But who knows? Maybe soon, interesting things will be born within the fort's high walls.
3) A new teammate - Teodoro.
A Melissian sailor named Teodulo is now on the pirate island. Through an interesting quest, he will probably join your adventuring squad.
4) Two new Arenas have been added - the Ronin's Camp and the Orc Master's Arena.
4-1) The Kiren Sect, a group of ronin from the far eastern country of Arasai, visited this land several years ago and established a gladiatorial arena here. You can travel to their arena to participate in tournaments. Their samurai and ninjas will also appear in other arenas in the Freelands. Also, you can visit the camp of the Kiren Sect, it is rumored that they have been having some trouble lately, perhaps you can help this group of ronin turn the tide?
4-2) The Orc Master, the once feared intruder, is now deeply rooted in the Freelands with his tribe and Orc slaves. His arena is open to all, and as long as you are strong enough, you can go and challenge his orc slave fighters, or even himself. It's been a long time since the kicking and screaming incident that first brought him to Freelands, and the hot-tempered orc master hasn't kicked up much of a fuss. We don't know how much longer this quiet will last.
5) A new large quest has been added：
The ronin of the Kiren Sect are in serious conflict with the local forces, and your choices concern the fate of them all.
6) Reworked the dungeon level of the Warden Forest：

The legendary gladiators from Blackthorn Arena now return to their respective arenas. You'll see them in various arenas, and in the future, you might even see them outside of the arena.
8) Added a new weapon type, the wand.
A wand is a one-handed magical weapon that is about as useful as a hammer in the hands of someone without magical talent, but in the hands of someone with magical talent, it can channel their magical power towards their enemies, inflicting terrible damage.
9) Magic Normal Attack！
Adds a "Magic Attack" skill to Flame, Ice, Electric, Light and black magic. This is an activated skill that turns a character's normal attack into a long-range magic attack of the appropriate element.
10) New skills:
- A new type of magic skill has been added: Air magic. As with other basic elemental magic, players can unlock this type of magic by purchasing a spellbook from a magic merchant.
- A new type of magic skill has been added: Spirit Magic. Players can obtain these spellbooks from the two witches in the game by completing their quests or by killing them.
-A new type of Genre from Blackthorn Arena has been added: Ronin, players can unlock it by completing the Ronin Camp questline.
11) Legendary gear special effects:
All Legendary Gear special effects are now live: that's right, we didn't live the special effects for these gear before.
