How have you been recently? Well, I hope? Ever since I wrote the wrong address and mistakenly sent a letter to you, we have exchanged letters six times, right?
A mistake in exchange for a friend — fate is always so magical, so gratifying.
By the way, you mentioned some trouble your uncle's family was having in your last letter. I wonder if that ever got resolved?
This is the frugality of life. I've encountered my fair share of troubles as of late. Fortunately, you are somewhere far away, listening to my troubles.
You mentioned before that your dream is to travel all over the world, and it just so happens that's what I want as well. I hope those troublesome matters will distance themselves from you and me, and we will finally live in prosperity and peace.
When things settle down, perhaps fate will arrange a meeting for us.
I hope things work out for you.

I left an important secret at the Li Hotel, and it is your mission to find it, keep it hidden, and use it when necessary.
There are many forces and ears in Xuzhou Town. Out of precaution, I have divided the key to the secret into eight parts, which are given to trusted people or hidden somewhere.
I'm sure you'll be able to follow the clues I've left behind. Find them all and solve the mystery.
When you have time, look for Supervisor Zhao at the Li Hotel on Yingxing Street. He will explain it to you in detail.
Time is of the essence, so I'll leave it at that.

Hope everything goes well.

Each of the first three Reclusive Ramblings levels are single-attribute, but they also only allow the player's deck to be comprised of a single attribute as well. Completing all three of these opens the "Peak Contest," which grants the Celebration - Enduring icon.png Celebration - Enduring Namecard on victory. Players having a difficult time with these debates may wish to read over our Deck-building Tips.

Investigation Map[edit | edit source]

Use Gasoline icon.pngGasoline to enter Investigation story and Chase Levels. New neighborhood maps will open as the event phases progress.

  • Story levels consume Gasoline icon.pngGasoline x20 per level and are single-view only.
  • Chase levels consume Gasoline icon.pngGasoline x80 per level for the first entry only, then remain open for the duration of the event for players to beat their high scores and obtain Gears. The goal in these levels is to drive for the longest possible distance while avoiding obstacles and collecting Gears and power-ups. The car's speed will gradually increase over time, and the level will end upon collision with an obstacle.
    • The "Gear DBL" power-up doubles the amount of Gears collected.
    • The Magnet power-up automatically absorbs nearby Gears for a specific period.
    • The Shield power-up nullifies one collision per use.
  • Additionally, explore suspicious spots on the map to potentially find useful items such as Stellin, Oracles, and enhancement items. A limited number of these suspicious spots are available each day, with new ones appearing every day for 14 days after entering the event.

Car Modification[edit | edit source]

Gears collected from the Chase Levels can be used to modify the vintage car and boost its performance. The modifications are arranged in a skill tree and may require a previous entry or entries in the skill tree to be raised before the modification can be done.

Each phase will open new entries available for modification. Modification priority will depend on a player's preference.

Intro

You and the NXX members arrived at the newly opened themed district in Cloudland Park at the invitation of Marius...

And the five of you played a live-action detective game a small town named Xuzhou.

During half-time, the staff gave each of you an exquisitely designed questionnaire.

Luke: They have adopted quite a retro design for these questionnaires.

Marius: Yeah. From the paper texture to the font used, they certainly evoke an era of the past... Hey, look at this.

Marius points to the lower right corner of the questionnaire, where it vaguely shows the insignia of a lily.

Artem: I recall this insignia was a logo of a famous paper mill in Xuzhou Town, but it later went bankrupt due to poor business.

You: (What a meticulous person Mr. Wing is! He even took note of such a small detail stated in the lore introduction of Xuzhou.)

Vyn: They did put a lot of care into the details. That piques my curiosity about the questionnaire. Shall we take a look at it?

Upon hearing Vyn's suggestion, everyone nods in agreement and focuses on the questionnaire...

There aren't many questions, but every question is carefully designed to elevate players' experience.

Luke: They start off by asking us to rate their scene setup. Isn't that the core feature? They're pretty confident.

Marius: Right. But to be honest, they've done a great job. Capable and confident, I like it.

Seeing Marius reveal an appreciative look, you wonder if he's considering a potential acquisition.

Just when you're about to ask, Vyn discovers an interesting question, and his lips curl into a smile.

You: Dr. Richter, did a question catch your eye?

Vyn: Well, there is indeed a meaningful question. They ask if the costumes helped the players to immerse into the story.

Marius: Isn't the answer to that question pretty obvious? Of course, they were helpful.

Marius: Look at my costume. Honestly, these clothes and accessories help me to get into the character's headspace.

Artem: I agree With Marius on this point.

Luke: Yeah, and I think my two cents on this are definitely worth something since I often play different roles at work.

Luke: Wearing clothes that match the character's identity and imitating his way of speaking helps me get into character.

After everyone voices their opinions, they all look over to you, seemingly waiting for you to say something.

Artem: What about you? What are your thoughts?

You: Hmm... I also think wearing costumes that match the story's background helps players' immersion.

You: Such as the qipao I was wearing. I subconsciously started speaking in a gentler tone after putting on the costume.

Vyn nods thoughtfully after listening to everyone's answer.

Vyn: I see. If that is what everyone thinks, perhaps I can try to think from the character's perspective next time...

Marius: Wait, don't tell me you've never immersed yourself in your story and role all those times in the past.

You: What!? No way! I felt that Dr. Richter was pretty deeply engaged.

Artem: Not necessarily. Maybe he employed his professional skills as a psychiatrist to observe the kind of feedback we wanted from him.

You: Huh? Is that so?

Vyn: Who knows? We should choose a story with more emotional scenes next time. I can easily be in character with you.

Artem: I'm afraid that's not for you to decide. There are five of us here, so the choice of story must be unanimous.

Marius: Exactly. But speaking of emotional scenes, I'm sure I'm a better match for you, Miss.

Luke: Marius, you can always keep quiet if you have nothing better to say.

Seeing that everyone is busily chatting instead of finishing the questionnaire, you give them a reminder.

You: All right. Let's hurry and finish up the questionnaire. Don't keep the staff waiting.

After solving first puzzle

Finally, all of you have completed the questionnaire. The final question asks you to choose a character archetype:

"If this isn't about the story of Xuzhou Town, which kind of person would you like to become?"

It also requires explaining your choice. You find the character fascinating and end up writing a lot.

By the time you put down your pen, you realize that everyone is done. You wonder how they answered the final question.

You: It seems like you guys are done. So, what's your choice for the last question?

Luke winks at you, looking pleased with himself.

Luke: I knew you'd ask. I chose the military school student. As for my reason...

Luke: First, I'm naturally baby-faced, so it's convincing. Second, he is a master of all trades, and that sounds like me.

You: Even though something about your reasoning doesn't seem quite right, I can't find any reason to dispute it.

Marius: Hah. I didn't know self-praise was a necessary skill for an agent. You should keep things more low-key.

Marius: I chose the rich businessman because he's loaded and handsome like me and very devoted to the person he likes.

Vyn: You gave a rather detailed profile of that character. Are you sure you did not add any assumptions of your own?

Marius: Hey, that wasn't an assumption, but a deduction.

Seeing how Marius seems like he's about to go on and on, you hurriedly pass the question to Artem.

You: What about you, Mr. Wing?

Artem: I chose to be a spy with a mission, whose purpose is to complete all kinds of challenges and missions in secret.

You: That does sound like a character you'd pick.

Vyn: Hmm... It looks like everyone will subconsciously pick a character that is closer to their real self.

You: Did you not choose the same, Dr. Richter?

Vyn: I did. I chose the character of a doctor.

You: Is he a psychiatrist too?

Vyn gently shakes his head.

Vyn: He is only an ordinary doctor who helps people. In that era, physical injuries were far more deadly.

Artem: That's a little different from your usual image, but your intent of saving others hasn't changed.

You: That's right. Doctors are always there to save people, no matter when and where. They are very respectable.

Artem: Well, now that we've shared our choices, what about you?

Luke: That's right. What did you choose? If you choose to be a student, then we can be schoolmates!

Artem: I think you'll choose to be a spy like me. After all, you are a strong believer in justice and equality.

Vyn: Your words are too absolute, Artem. I think she can perfectly play a role that works in tandem with the doctor.

Marius: Huh? Why do I feel that she' more suitable to be the businessman's secretary?

Seeing how the argument among the four guys intensifies, you suddenly don't want to reveal your answer so quickly.

You: Hmm... It's about time. We should hurry and submit the questionnaire before we continue with the game.

Luke: But you haven't shared with us your answer.

You: Well, I'll leave you guys in suspense for now and reveal my answer when the game is over.

Stellis Recharge Station[edit | edit source]

The Recharge Station system offers three packs which functions as a mini "monthly card" -- a player makes a purchase but must continue to log in daily for a period of time to receive the rewards. Like the monthly card, stacking multiple recharge packs will extend the duration of the bonus rather than the size of the daily reward.

Two versions of the Stellis Recharge Station will be available: The first -- the "Early Bird Discount" -- will be available for purchase from Dec 28 2023-Jan 2 2024. The latter is available from Jan 3 2024 to Jan 21 2024. Recharge gifts purchased during the event can still be claimed after the event until their end dates.
