From today through to the weekly maintenance on October 25th, 2016 (UTC), players can participate in a ranking event and compete to reign over the Speed Event Server. The top-3 ranked players during the event period will receive Ruud and Ancient Hero's Souls.
Additionally, many special packages designed for fast growth and powerful equipment (only for the Speed Event Server) are now available for purchase in the MU item shop.

WEBZEN announced that the dungeon-based action MMORPG CONTINENT OF THE NINTH SEAL (C9) has released its latest content update RAEBIN: The 3rd Update.
The new update introduces Raebin adventurers to Eternal Spring of Endor, a brand-new dungeon. Eternal Spring of Endor is at the most treacherous place in Raebin, surrounded by vicious monsters under the control of Nefer.

Players will also meet and defeat even more perilous monsters found near Endor Forest in Nightmare Mode. Even though the new Nightmare Mode is the most challenging yet, with items like "Pieces of Nightmare" and "Essence of Nightmare" on offer, it's definitely worth a try.
Additionally, new Ultimate Rare weapons for each class are now available with the update.
The C9 team will be celebrating this release with an in-game event, titled Tracing Dark Scout. Players will have a chance to claim many rewards, including Traces of Nightmare, Bloody Corps equipment parts, Skill Books and much more.
