About “Where Vernal Winds Will Never Blow”
“Where Vernal Winds Will Never Blow" is now online, focusing the story on Chongyue, the brother of Nian, Dusk and Ling, who has been guarding Yumen for hundreds of years. At this time, Doctors will follow Chongyue’s steps to find a master for the sword he left behind. Meanwhile, enemies target Yumen, and fighting is inevitable.
Inspired by the Yumen catastrophe defense, the update introduces a new mechanism. When deployed on the mechanism, operators who have high ground can deal more damage to the enemies below them. However, the defenses aren't insurmountable, and enemies will try to climb up and bombard them with fire to fight against the operators. Doctors should use their intelligence to tackle the game.

New Operators
Three new Operators can be acquired through the current headhunting. As a 6-star Fighter, Chongyue amplifies his own damage to opponents and attacks with massive damage multipliers, qualities that compound one another with great effect. Lin, the 6-star Phalanx, has crystal barriers that block all damage, which shatter to stun and deal Arts Damage after receiving a certain amount of damage. Firewhistle, the 5-star Fortress, ignites the tile the target is on with every attack while her skill is active, and enemies within the burning tiles will receive Arts Damage. The free-to-claim 5-star Artilleryman, Jieyun, can throw her chakram forwards and deal Physical damage every second to all nearby enemies and reduce their Movement Speed.
New Arrival at Store
The following 3 traditional-styled outfits are on sale, “It Does Wash the Strings” for Ling, “Illumination That of Daylights” for Cantabile and “Reflection That of the Moons” for Mulberry. Additionally, there are more than 60 outfits back in the store. Don’t miss out! A themed furniture set “Yumen Clinic” that’s reconstructed based on Waai Fu’s description is also available.
