　In addition, a live broadcast program “Solco Conference Room” where the development team talks about behind-the-scenes stories and key points will be broadcast from 8:00 PM on Wednesday, February 28, 2024. In Part 3, we will dig deeper into Scapegoat and Demonic Burst.

“ SOUL COVENANT’ ‘ (Developed/Published by: Thirdverse Co., Ltd.) has released information on weapons and special moves with spine motifs, which can be created from the remains of allies.
In addition, from 8:00 pm on February 28th, we will be broadcasting a live broadcast “Solco Conference Room” that will deliver valuable information that is only available here.

“Scapegoat” is a weapon made from the corpses of companions.

The main battle weapon of the reinforced human unit Avatar.
After death, the avatar’s body crystallizes and turns into a hard object.
It becomes a special material called “relic body”.
Scapegoats made from relic bodies are said to be “manufactured from the corpses of their comrades,” and are also referred to as grave markers for fallen comrades.

The state in which the special receptors that remain in the corpse, “Oracle Receptors,” are connected to the user’s own receptors is called “Netherworld Connection,” and the user exhibits powers beyond ordinary humans.

Unless a certain amount of corpses remain, relic bodies that can be used as materials cannot be obtained.
For this reason, the true value of the Avatar members’ “death” is put to the test.
To die and leave behind a body. It’s about passing the baton of hope to someone else.

Someone’s death makes the person left behind stronger. That’s why the members call out to each other.
I’ll pick up the bones.

Scapegoat transformation function

Scapegoat changes its shape greatly depending on whether it is held with one hand or with both hands.
The usability, reach, power, etc. change, so using them properly depending on the situation is the shortcut to victory. There are also special weapons such as twin swords and chainsaws, so it’s a good idea to choose a weapon based on your compatibility with the enemy and your personal preferences.

Memory crystal “Monado”

Deus ex machina and mechanical angels prey on people and absorb their memories in order to learn.
The memory group is stored in a crystalline medium called the “Monado”, and if the enemy aircraft is destroyed, the Monad will be exposed.

By touching the Monad, you may be able to hear the voices of the dead. It is said that bringing these back home and analyzing them will yield valuable knowledge.

Demonic Burst, the signal of rebellion against God

Absorb the memory crystal Monad exposed by the enemy with the “Sibyl Arm”. After accumulating energy, it can release a powerful force called “Demonic Burst”. It can also be called a kind of “miracle” that utilizes the event-altering effect of God’s language metacode.

Demonic Burst is a signal of rebellion against the God who created it – it
can deal powerful damage and change the course of battle with a single blow, or it can also wipe out the swarming mechanical angels.
