※Note: After this update, some content will be adjusted, and weekly activity rewards and tasks will be reset.
◤Update Method◤

● Server shutdown: We recommend you to prepare to log out of the game 15 minutes before the update. Please do not make any purchases in the 5 minutes before the server shutdown to avoid game experience and account asset losses.
