The Enraged Kim Geun-seok!
Therefore, Lin Ye cannot let Kim Geun-seok give up, no matter what.
Because this guy had harbored malicious intentions towards him and his skills beforehand, otherwise he wouldn't have killed Zhao Jianyu.
Now that the hand has been extended, there's no way he can easily pull it back.
Lin Ye wasn't afraid that this guy could cause him any harm later; he just felt very uncomfortable if he didn't remove any obstacles as soon as possible.
He immediately took out his phone and started recording a video, intending to upload it online.
In the video, Lin Ye displayed a calm yet somewhat indifferent expression.
"Ah... Mr. Kim Geun-seok, I am Lin Ye!"
"I'm sorry, you've lost this round!"
"However, I hope you remember my pre-battle agreement: our battle will not only determine who is superior, but also who lives and dies!"
"This duel is far from over. In every Instance Winter Is Coming, I will drag you into the Instance until you conquer my Winter Is Coming, or until you are annihilated within the Instance."
"Of course... if you're scared, you can just admit defeat and surrender, record a video of yourself kneeling down and apologizing, and then admit your mistakes and crimes in front of the major media outlets on Azure Star. I might consider giving you a break."
"But if that were the case, you and your race would probably be considered by everyone on Azure Star as the most dishonest and inferior race."
After speaking, Lin Ye smiled slightly at the camera and ended the video.
The video went viral online at the speed of a rocket launch.
Coupled with the deterrent effect of the previous "Winter Is Coming"Instance, public opinion is completely one-sided.
[The tragedy of South Korea: A rising star in Aerial Warfare will fall today.]
Even among top-tier talents, there are differences; Kim Geun-seok was utterly defeated by Lin Ye!
[Technology plagiarism? Besides stubbornness, what has South Korea left behind?]
[They're no match for them! South Korea's lies have fallen apart on their own.]
[Lin Ye! The eternal genius of Instance design!]
All sorts of reports sprang up like mushrooms after rain.
Without exception, they were all supporting Lin Ye. Of course, rationally speaking, there was genuine support among them, but there was also some excessive praise.
There's nothing we can do about it. The influence of the previous Raging Waves made Lin Ye's momentum too strong. This wave of Winter Is Coming, and it will bring many new and shocking things.
In addition, the reputation of the South Korea Settlements was not very good to begin with.
The current situation is naturally one of widespread condemnation online.
Some busybodies even started spouting nonsense on online forums, clearly enjoying the spectacle.
[Young Master Kim Geun-seok, why don't you apologize to God Ye? Maybe he'll forgive you.]
[Trying to challenge God Ye to an arm-wrestling match? They're utterly ignorant. Who's the thief? I don't think I need to elaborate.]
I think the young master of the Kim family will probably just admit defeat now, otherwise wouldn't he be humiliating himself?
[I'd love to see Kim Geun-seok continue with "Winter Is Coming," watching the Koreans get tortured; I love that kind of thing.]
[I think Young Master Kim was upset that God Ye had surpassed him in the rankings, which is why he did this. But he ended up shooting himself in the foot; now... God Ye's ranking seems to have risen again.]
[Kim Geun-seok, listen up. I am Prince Singh. I have serious doubts about your military capabilities.]
[...]
To say that these audience members were simply watching a show isn't entirely accurate.
For many ordinary people, fighting with powerful figures is the best way for them to survive, and they all hope that the Kim family can continue to fight Lin Ye.
This way, they can gain a deeper understanding of the Winter Is Coming, and with the South Korea taking the fall, their chances of being selected for the Instance will naturally be much lower.
South Korea Settlement.
In the opulent living room of the Kim Family Manor.
Kim Geun-seok slumped listlessly in the large, soft sofa, like a deflated balloon.
At this moment, it was as if all the bones in his body had been removed, leaving him limp and without any strength.
His eyes were glazed over as he stared at the ceiling, his gaze revealing a deep weariness and fear.
"Call..."
He had just been blown to smithereens by a missile in the Winter Is Coming, and although he had left the Instance, he was still experiencing waves of phantom pain.
It felt like I was still suffering in Instance.
Lin Ye's Su-57 fighter jet truly left his mind blank; the terrifying image of bombs gathering into Dome was still echoing in his mind.
I can't figure it out, I can't understand it at all.
Why is it that an Instance Lin Ye rushed to create can be this powerful?
Why does Lin Ye strive to be ahead of the world in every technology he develops?
Is this bastard cheating?
"Damn it! Damn Lin Ye!"
He took a deep breath, forcing himself to remain calm.
He did fail the Instance challenge, but fortunately, it only deducted 800 points, which was negligible for Challengers of his level and hardly a loss.
As for the design and structure of the Black Hawk fighter that Lin Ye obtained due to the failure, it doesn't really matter. Lin Ye has the more powerful Su-57, so naturally he wouldn't be interested in his own Black Hawk fighter.
Not long after, several beautiful women slowly entered the living room, some carrying exquisite fruit platters, others holding fragrant tea and fine wine.
With sweet smiles on their faces, they flocked to Kim Geun-seok's side.
Gently massage his shoulders to relieve his fatigue.
"Geunseok oppa~"
"Oppa, don't be discouraged. You were just careless for a moment, it's nothing serious."
"Geun Seok oppa, you will always be our idol."
"That Lin Ye was just using tricks; otherwise, he wouldn't be a match for Geun Seok oppa at all."
"Lin Ye is nowhere near as handsome as our Geun Seok oppa~"
Being served by a group of women and showered with sweet words, Kim Geun-seok's mood improved somewhat.
He began to console himself, thinking that losing was just losing, and that he had simply fallen into Lin Ye's trap.
It's obvious that Lin Ye's "Winter Is Coming"Instance focuses on Aerial Warfare. The reason he initially created the so-called combat style selection was simply to lure him into ultimately choosing Aerial Warfare.
Despicable! Shameless!
It was just an experiment; he started it all himself, and it was a lie he fabricated from the beginning. Lin Ye's skills weren't originally from South Korea.
Although they didn't succeed, they didn't lose anything.
But one thing he was absolutely certain of was that this matter absolutely could not end like this!
We must then challenge the Winter Is Coming Instance.
Because this involves his reputation and that of the Kim family.
Now that we've run into a tough obstacle, we have no choice but to keep trying!
Kim Geun-seok can lose, but only by a small margin. He absolutely cannot lose so badly. At the very least, he needs to figure out all the techniques for the Winter Is Coming Instance.
As long as the weaknesses of the Instance can be discovered, even if he can't eliminate them, those LV4 powerhouses will step in.
Lin Ye is currently at the height of his power and can be considered a threat to everyone, so naturally some people want to get rid of him.
This is the rule of this dog-eat-dog world!
Slightly relieved, Kim Geun-seok took out his phone and glanced at it, trying to cheer himself up and dispel the gloom in his heart.
Immediately, I saw online reports about his duel with Lin Ye.
"Damn it! What are all these media outlets doing here?!"
"Why is everyone making such a fuss! Don't they understand the strength of the Kim family?"
Kim Geun-seok immediately started swearing.
He immediately closed the news and went to the Instance design forum to see if there was any analysis of the upcoming Winter Is Coming Instance.
As a result, I saw all sorts of sarcastic remarks and mockery from netizens.
"A bunch of bedbugs!"
"Who do you think you are? You're just LV0 trash, how dare you talk to me like that!"
"If you dare not remain anonymous, I'll immediately drag you into Instance and wipe you out! Let them know just how powerful the Jin Family Chaebol truly is!"
Kim Geun-seok cursed a couple more times, but in the end, he had no choice but to browse some social networking sites, where he saw the video that Lin Ye had uploaded.
From the moment he saw Lin Ye speak, his face froze completely, and his expression gradually became ferocious.
When he saw Lin Ye's calm and playful expression at the end, he could no longer hold back.
"Fuck you!! Ahshiba! Ahshiba!!"
As the eldest son of the prestigious Kim family, Kim Geun-seok now shoulders the heavy responsibility of managing the household. Since childhood, he has been respected and worshipped by everyone, and wherever he goes, he can command the wind and rain. When and where has he ever suffered such a humiliating disgrace?
This is nothing short of a blatant provocation!
They actually dared to try to make him kneel down and admit his mistake, and in front of all the major media outlets! How could Kim Geun-seok possibly save face?
The Kim family has completely lost face!
Lin Ye released this video, clearly intending to cut off Kim Geun-seok's escape route!
"Lin Ye!"
I will tear you to pieces! I will make the Firmament smear you with ashes!
In a fit of rage, he overturned the sofa and began yelling insults at all the women around him.
"A bunch of bitches, what are you looking at? Do you think I don't know you're all eyeing my Kim family's points!"
"Get out of here, all of you!"
"Roll!"
The women who wanted to marry into the Kim family were so frightened that they turned pale and ran out of the villa without even tidying their clothes.
"Shut up!"
Just as Kim Geun-seok was almost losing his mind due to anger, a sudden angry shout came from a room deep inside the villa.
"Geun Seok, why did you start such a big fire?"
"Do you think throwing a tantrum will salvage the Kim family's reputation? Will it allow you to defeat Lin Ye?"
Kim Chan-hoon slowly descended the escalator, leaning on a golden cane, staring at Kim Geun-seok with a gloomy expression.
Upon seeing his father suddenly appear, Kim Geun-seok immediately composed himself and stammered:
"Dad..."
"I lost to Lin Ye, and I've disappointed you."
