2024-10-29 19:42:56Adam first analyzes the opponents.
The eight men wore hats and clothes that somehow looked harmonious with each other.With a combination of purple and gray that became their characteristic.In addition, Adam also saw a sailboat of the same size as The Hanged Man's ship, moored and attached to The Hanged Man's ship.On the flag, or on the hats of the opponents, there was a symbol. It was the symbol of a lion's head biting a sword and an axe.It was the emblem of one of the major arcana."Strength!" He tried to remember who held the Strength card and quickly came to one conclusion, "Greg Chandler..." He recalled the appearance of the other party during the second wave.He was a man in his early forties, with almost bald hair, wearing a blue checkered shirt.One thing was clear at the moment, any fight, Adam wasn't sure he could win or even survive against the other party. The Gallows and Shadow Hand, which were h

"Attack!?" Greg, who was highly cautious, quickly searched for the source of the attack. "From within the forest? Is Adam Lockwood still alive? Or is it a Beast attack?" He tried to guess the type of attack."No, it can't be a Beast. It's clearly an arrow... No doubt this is Adam Lockwood!" He knew and knew enough about Adam Lockwood's prominence in the second game. "That guy uses arrows as his main weapon." He immediately got the answer.However, he couldn't find the attacker anywhere.From a different direction, another arrow quickly struck the neck of another crew member. Making him wriggle and fall with yellowish-green fluid coming out of his mouth and nose."Fuck! Find cover now!" Greg ordered his crew. On the other side, he intended to find the shooter's position, suspected to be Adam Lockwood.The crew of the Strength ship quickly sought cover. Some hid behind still smoking rocks, meteor remnants from the eruption, and some others
Game Of Arcana Chapter 37: Running Out of Soulution
"Yes, Sir." Bryan bowed politely.On the other side, the crew of the Strength ship, apart from two who died from poisoned arrows, were all still in good shape with a red aura enveloping them. Their gazes showed disdain for Adam, looking down on him and mocking him.Adam ignored them, then said to Greg, "You better keep your promise."[Gallows Can be Used]A notification appeared. "Good, this is enough for now. The top priority is to keep Greg Chandler as far away from the coast as possible, preventing him from giving orders to sink the ship." Adam began to think about his next move.Greg replied, "Of course," with insincere tone and expression."Follow me." Adam said, then began to enter the misty forest.Greg followed behind, along with three of his other crew members.Thirty minutes into the burning forest, shrouded in thin smoke and ash snow, Adam could already see the golden glow of the Mini Sun chest. He re
Game Of Arcana Chapter 38: Void Gaze
At the initial location, Greg walked slowly toward the Mini Sun chest, his gaze directed towards the coast. "Only light can surpass the speed of sound, even if you fight as hard as you can, what you'll find in the end is a sunken ship." He smirked cynically."Captain, shouldn't we chase him?" One of his crew members questioned Greg's decision."Of course we should, otherwise, he'll do the same to my ship—destroy it." Greg mumbled, then turned towards the Mini Sun inside the chest. He continued, "But, first, we'll take this thing."By concentrating "Berserk" on the surface of his hand, he tried to grab the Mini Sun directly.A few millimeters from the Mini Sun, his fingers began to blister.He naturally raised his hand and furrowed his brow, "So, I can't carry this thing directly, on the other hand, I can carry it along with its chest." He realized that the heat from the chest couldn't be compared to the Mini Sun itself.He turned
Game Of Arcana Chapter 39: Moon Crawler
On the shore, Greg arrived with Mini Sun along with three of his crew members. His face wrinkled as he saw most of his crew lying lifeless."... This is truly unavoidable." He knew no matter how fast he reached the shore, he wouldn't be able to catch up with Adam using Shadow Hand.Part of his mind had already predicted this situation.At that moment, he saw "The Hanged Man" ship split in two, with the smaller piece slowly sinking to the bottom of the sea. Meanwhile, the larger piece remained afloat and was being engulfed by flames."Ellion!" Greg shouted.Ellion on the "Strength" ship suddenly snapped out of it and found himself back on the deck, ready to fire the cannon. He looked around in confusion, "Shit, what just happened!?" He muttered in frustration."Where is he?" Greg asked about Adam's whereabouts.Ellion, who had no idea what had just happened, crossed his arms to signal that he didn't know.As soon

Moon Crawler turned his head left and right as if searching for something, before his gaze fixed on the golden chest behind Greg.His footsteps made no sound, and the surface of the water only showed small ripples like a drop of water falling into the sea.It didn't take long for Moon Crawler to arrive at the shore and silently walk towards the Mini Sun Chest.Greg, standing right in front of the Mini Sun chest, was consumed by tumultuous thoughts. "What does he want? He didn't kill Ellion... Is he after the Mini Sun?" He realized that Moon Crawler was heading towards the Mini Sun with purpose."?!"In fact, there was nothing he could do. Greg was someone who valued his life greatly, which made his caution level very high. And at this moment, he knew well enough that being a hindrance to Moon Crawler would mean death."Why can that creature appear here? Out of all the vastness of this world!!!" He gritted his teeth."Tha
Game Of Arcana Chapter 41: New Scenario
The sky was dark, and stars began to illuminate, the crescent moon hanging sixty degrees in the sky, and the sun had long set.Gong!Adam suddenly awake by the sound of the bell. The sound reverberated in his ears, a feeling of déjà vu!As he opened his eyes, he immediately choked and coughed. He quickly spat out salty water from his mouth.Cough!!His body was almost numb, but with a little effort, he managed to drag himself out of the waves' impact on the beach."Haha... It's all over..." He said almost despairingly.He was here, on the edge of the beach, and still breathing was a miracle.The last thing he remembered was when his emotions were raging and difficult to control. The effects of the mishap made him more vulnerable and unstable.After nearly five minutes, he adjusted himself.Struggling to stand, he surveyed the island's condition.With stars and the moon providing illumi
Game Of Arcana Chapter 42: Equivalent Exchange
As he bowed his head, the corner of his eye caught a golden glint. He turned towards the Mini Sun chest, which was still in its original position.[Mini Sun][The Sun's Artifact][Taken Over by The Hanged Man][Lore: Shortly after the formation of the sun, the planets around it began to burn and perish. To reduce the impact, a god decided to take some of the sun's power and compress it into ninety-nine ancient artifacts. The Mini Sun is one of the ninety-nine artifacts containing the power of the Sun.]He lifted his head towards the Gallows and said firmly, "I will sacrifice the artifact that currently belongs to me, Mini Sun!"The screen remained blank for several seconds, then finally displayed a text.[The value of ancient artifacts is much greater than just a ship][Prioritize equivalent exchange]Adam thought for a moment and replied, "I want all my crew to be resurrected."There were nine crew members of The
Game Of Arcana Chapter 43: New Destination
Adam sighed and stood up, "Take me to him," he said.He had acquired some wounds, on his forehead, calf, and lower abdomen. The first was caused by a rock thrown by Greg, while the others he got when the ship "The Hanged Man" sank.Navigated by Bryan, Adam descended the stairs to the lower cabin.There, Lucas sat hugging his knees, burying his face in them.As Adam arrived in front of him, he lifted his head and looked at Adam with a strange gaze."Damn! Just seeing your face makes me want to punch you... Too bad, I'm smart enough to know that you're all fake. Heh," he grinned madly.At that, Adam chuckled coldly, "Stay like that, you're perfect bait for the Beast, it could save time and energy when the Beast attacks the ship..."Adam had no way to deal with Lucas's current mental issues. However, he at least wanted to try to convince him that this is the real world.Lucas's dense thoughts about believing that t

Chapter 56: The Hierophant
As the sun set once again, Adam sat on the main deck of "The Hanged Man" ship, examining the gold-covered book in his hands. He had flipped through the book repeatedly, finding only blank pages. He had also experimented by trying to tear the book, but it returned to its original condition.Clarice, on the other hand, was busy with her crew, whatever they were doing on "The Emperor" ship.Adam, wearing a half-height hat, gazed out at the distant sea shrouded in thick darkness."Considering the time I needed to get to this island... I doubt Collin White will arrive in less than a week. That would allow me to use this book freely..."Moreover, he had many wild ideas in his head. Previously, when he used the skill "Equivalent Exchange," he sacrificed Mini Sun, an artifact belonging to The Sun, which he had taken over at the time, as an exchange material. He wondered if he could do the same with the Book of Repetition to eliminate the reverse effect on

"Dock now!" Adam ordered firmly.Topper nodded, immediately steering The Hanged Man towards the shore where the molten rocks formed a pattern indicating the entrance.Both ships, The Hanged Man and The Emperor, began docking near the shore. Clarice led her group to prepare to disembark, while Adam directed his crew to guard the ship."Don't let anyone approach our ship," Adam commanded Topper and several other crew members. "We don't know what we will encounter in there."Clarice jumped down from the ship and landed on the rocks that had started to cool after melting. She looked towards the now more visible entrance."Derrick, Clint, come with me," she ordered her crew. Both immediately disembarked and stood by her side.Adam also disembarked, followed by Bryan, while the others stayed behind to guard the ship from any potential attacks, as this time the ship was not hidden.Clarice nodded and approached the entrance, tr

The sun slowly moved, tilting 60 degrees to the west.Topper, who was standing guard on a sharp rock, noticed movement from the forest, then saw his Captain walking with someone else. At first, he thought it was Lucas, but quickly discarded that thought upon seeing that the person with his Captain was a woman. He frowned.Signaling to the others, they quickly gathered to greet them."Prepare the ship," Adam said to Topper and the others.Meanwhile, Bryan approached and asked in a low tone, "What happened to Lucas?"Adam shook his head, "I don't know, just hope he's okay.""Are we going to leave him?" Bryan asked again.Adam glanced towards the sea, then towards the island. "We’re going to circumnavigate the island and find The Emperor's ship," he said casually.Bryan quickly shifted his gaze to Clarice, nodding politely before saying, "Alright."Clarice looked somewhat surprised to see The Hanged Man's

Chapter 53: Book of Repetition
"Explain what actually happened..."[Ancient Artifact of The Hierophant—Book of Repetition, has repeated the story. The coverage area of this ancient artifact encompasses the entire island, effectively returning the island to its original state after the artifact was integrated into it.]"Repetition..." Adam muttered softly."So, why are all my skills acting strange?"[Your condition has been reset to how it was before you entered the island. However, since you are not part of the story, a side effect has occurred because you became involved in a process you were not supposed to be involved in. All your skills will experience Reverse Effects.]Adam's face twitched."Gallows, which should be very light, has become impossible to lift... The Shadow Hand that I should be able to control now doesn't obey my commands... And instead of gaining order points after killing humans, I'm being fined..." He muttered to himself while looking at

Adam landed smoothly and simultaneously swung Gallows like a giant axe, sending several hunched humans flying.Meanwhile, Clarice, who jumped nearly twenty meters high, also landed smoothly. Her pupils suddenly turned gold, "Authority Aura"!Some of the hunched humans received its impact.Not stopping there, more hunched humans began to appear, like a pack of wolves growling."Grrr!!!"Adam twirled Gallows in his hands, adjusting to the situation."We've made it out, now the problem is how do we deal with these hunched humans? Should we kill them?" Adam found himself puzzled.Clarice, on the other hand, didn't hesitate to fight the hunched humans.At that moment, Adam remembered something, "I left Lucas!"He turned back into the circular hole and his gaze stopped at the one-foot table that previously held the book, also an Artifact. The book was gone!Briefly, he saw movement in the entrance ar

On the other side, Clarice had completed all her preparations, with the red flag bearing the golden crown emblem standing in the middle of the area. She raised her sword into the air, and a fireball the size of a palm flew towards her, merging with the sword, turning it into a flaming sword. Adam furrowed his brow, once again comparing his cards to Clarice's. "How many skills does she have!?" Adam quickly counted his own skills and found that he only had six, and some of them weren't very useful at the moment. With the flaming sword in hand, Clarice sliced through the air, causing the mist to dissipate not too far away. Vaguely, it revealed a figure on the other side. A creature twice the size of a normal gorilla, with elongated arms covered in brown fur. Its eyes looked like a musical note symbol. With sharp teeth and flowing saliva.

Adam followed from behind, his Gallows long turned to ashes. The red flame moved slowly, illuminating the square-shaped room. Clarice prioritized a path close to the wall, as that's where she found the right path during her first attempt to find a way out. The problem was, she wasn't sure where exactly. Even the markers on the minimap stopped before this room. Adam followed Clarice from behind along with Lucas, still bound by the rope. After walking for almost five minutes, Clarice suddenly stopped. "Wait," she said, raising her index finger while focusing her hearing. Adam wanted to ask "What's wrong?" but immediately refrained from doing so, he followed Clarice and focused on listening. Vaguely, they heard the sound of paper rubbing against each other. Rubbing! "What's that?" Adam thought about the possible causes o

The bottom of the gorge has a vastness that's difficult to describe. Many areas branch off, making it feel expansive. Without a Minimap, they would easily get lost.As Adam walked at the forefront, the rock wall beside him suddenly heated up and gradually melted.Seeing this anomaly, Adam immediately stepped back, followed by Clarice, who did the same.Looking at the Minimap, there were no points indicating it wasn't a B-level Beast or below.Adam pulled the rope binding Lucas and hid behind a sharp rock, turning to a different path.On the melting wall, lava poured, and a lizard the size of a mature horse appeared. Its skin was burned by orange fire, and the surrounding area gradually melted. The creature had a head that bloomed like a corpse flower, spraying hot lava from its mouth.[Earth Penetrator—A]Adam frowned while holding back his voice.The creature didn't notice Adam, Clarice, or Lucas."Alt

Clarice sighed, "Why don't you try following the path indicated by the system?" As if challenging Adam to do it.Adam understood her meaning, "Is there any obstacle that makes it impossible to get out? Something like traps? Puzzles? Or beasts?" His mind tried to conclude."What's the problem?" Adam wanted detailed information.Clarice didn't plan to hide the facts and willingly gave an overview, "At the end of the path, there's a giant door, I can open it, though it requires great strength. And that's when the creature comes and attacks... It's a miracle I survived.""A creature?"Clarice reaffirmed, "It's an A-level Beast guarding this gorge."Adam's memory spun, recalling information in his mind. His imagination worked, and the appearance of the Gigantic Boar that devoured humans appeared in his head, then changed to the sea creature with large, sharp fins that almost sank his ship. It was clear that an A-level Beast was still
