2024-10-29 19:42:56On 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

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

Therefore, he immediately made a decision, "Gorgon Island will be our sailing destination.""Yes, sir," Bryan nodded respectfully.He then went out to relay the order to Topper, who was controlling the helm, and provide information to the rest of the crew about the destination.At times like this, Adam redirected all forms of system conversation into his characteristic monotone voice.All interactions with the system were packaged in the form of conversations....Another night arrived, and the sky was covered by dark clouds. Heavy rain battered the ship "The Hanged Man," accompanied by staggering waves reaching five meters high.Topper, who was holding the helm, although unaffected by the extreme movement of the ship, still found it difficult to maintain the ship's stability.Jack and Rick worked together to handle the sails, ready to adjust them as needed, either to unfurl or furl them back.Adam, still un
Game Of Arcana Chapter 45: System Preview
Adam stepped out of the cabin, walking on the deck with careful consideration. Bryan didn't dare to follow him. Both he and the other crew members could only watch as he approached the Moon Crawler, which clearly emitted a dangerous aura."The player is the embodiment of the card itself... Although there are exceptions with The Hanged Man card, it doesn't make me immune to the card's characteristics," he had gathered much information throughout the game.At this moment, he could only hope that one of The Hanged Man's Characteristics truly became a part of him, "Equivalent Exchange..."Adam knew after meeting the Ghost Rider that S-level Beasts consumed other beast cores to strengthen themselves. "I don't know what happened to it, but I'm sure it's in a less than optimal condition, most likely injured," Adam concluded from the Moon Crawler's appearance.The characteristic of "The Hanged Man" is sacrifice, equivalent exchange, and imbalance.

Game Of Arcana Chapter 46: Trap
On the tenth day,The stars twinkled in the sky, and the crescent moon had changed its position. The sea was not too rough, and the ship sailed as it should.According to Bryan's words, the ship would arrive at "Gorgon" Island in a few hours. With that, he soon spotted a silhouette of the island. It was almost similar to the "Underworld" island, not very extensive but with higher terrain.Time passed, and the ship finally arrived at an island surrounded by steep and tall cliffs.The height of the land was about twenty meters above sea level. Waves continued to crash against the rocks with a strong and distinctive sound.Adam wore a brown leather coat, a grayish-white shirt, and a cowboy hat. Twirled around the base of his hat was a faded green ribbon dancing in the wind.Adam prepared his arrows and other equipment."Find a place to anchor." He ordered Topper, who expertly navigated the ship. With the help of Rick and Ja
Game Of Arcana Chapter 47: Missfortune
At that moment, one by one, they crouched down and pulled the bowstring with all their might, making the small arrows reach maximum tension.Adam frowned and then realized something important. This was a trap!These hunched figures were luring him to the edge of the cliff, intending to attack and corner him!"Shit!"Adam instinctively took a breath and summoned Gallows, which he could now use again. He lifted it and made it a suitable shield.Arrows were released simultaneously, accompanied by strange and eerie screams from each crawling person. "Winghhhh!!"Adam's ears rang.Lucas beside him didn't have enough protection and willingly threw himself into the abyss.Influenced by the pull of the rope he held, Adam lost his balance and immediately slipped on the rocks, the spikes cutting his calf before finally falling into the steep abyss filled with darkness."...Why did it turn out like this?" He natur

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

Chapter 54: Door
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

Chapter 49: Entrance
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
