The Koreans Come Out in Full Force!
"Hesitant and timid, afraid of everything!"
"In your current state, let alone Lin Ye's Purgatory-level Instance, even a random Hard-level Instance would be enough to give you a run for your money."
"As Instance Challengers, you must always believe in yourself! Don't let the Dungeon Designers lead you by the nose!"
You've committed a major taboo in Instance challenges!
Although Kim Chan-hoon's words were somewhat harsh, they struck Kim Geun-seok squarely on the head like a drumstick.
He was indeed too passive.
Because of the fear he experienced the first time in the Winter Is Coming, he was indeed very wary during the second Instance.
He was constantly afraid that he would Lin Ye, so he dared not do many things that would normally be obvious.
But even with all his caution, he still fell into the trap.
If I had known this would happen, I would have followed my original plan from the beginning. If I had chosen the Malaysia or the Tank Country, although it wouldn't have guaranteed a victory, at least I wouldn't have inexplicably ended up with the Dragon Country.
In an instant, a surge of intense anger ignited within him once more.
"Dad! I understand!"
"I will fight again Winter Is Coming! I'm not Jin if I don't bring that bastard Lin Ye down!"
Kim Chan-hoon sighed deeply, shook his head helplessly, and said:
"Things have come to this point, and this matter may no longer be something that the Kim family can decide."
Kim Geun-seok frowned slightly, looking puzzled. "Dad, what does this mean?"
"This is a duel between me and Lin Ye, who dares to interfere?!"
"If I'm not mistaken, your uncle will be the one to intervene in this matter next." Kim Chan-hoon looked coldly at Kim Geun-seok. "What? Are you still going to disobey him?"
"Uncle?"
Kim Geun-seok's uncle is Park Seong-man Sung-man, the Commander of the South Korea Settlement and the highest-ranking figure in South Korea, who is ranked first on the Hero Ranking.
Although the Kim family holds absolute power in the South Korea Settlement, they are still under the control of Park Seong-man.
Besides the Kim family, South Korea also has three other major conglomerates: the Lee family, the Park family, and the Choi family.
All three of these companies have ties to Park Seong-man!
Although the three families are not as powerful as the Kim family, if Park Seong-man deliberately shows favoritism, the Kim family will have a hard time in South Korea.
"Dad... is this going to escalate to the level of the Settlement? It can't be that serious..."
"Our Kim family has exposed our Strong Clan Plan. If we can win the Instance, that's fine, but if we can't, it'll feel like a fishbone stuck in our throat."
"I can't swallow it, and I can't spit it out."
Kim Chan-hoon spoke slowly.
"Therefore, we must break through the Winter Is Coming now to save face for our Settlement!"
"Even if we have to combine the power of the Four Great Families, we must deal with Lin Ye!"
After listening to his father's words, Kim Geun-seok finally fell silent.
He never imagined that what started as something as trivial as his foul mouth offending Lin Ye would escalate into such Battle.
Just then, Kim Geun-seok's phone rang. As expected, it was Park Seong-man calling.
One hour later.
The South Korea Settlement, the Shuotian World Tower.
In the Conference Room on the top floor.
Kim Geun-seok had already taken a seat next to Supreme Commander Park Seong-man.
Opposite him were Choi Tae-won, the head of the Choi family; Park Jeong-yong, the head of the Park family; Lee Jae-yong, the head of the Lee family.
Of the three families, the Choi family mainly engages in the entertainment industry in their Settlement, the Park family mainly develops the real estate industry, and the Lee family controls the electronics industry.
They all indirectly control the operation of the Settlement within their respective domains.
Firmament only takes care of the big picture; Firmament doesn't concern itself with the details, thus providing fertile ground for the growth of the South Korea conglomerates.
In his Park Seong-man was over sixty years old, his face was full of wrinkles, and there were only a few sparse white hairs on his head.
He squinted and remained silent.
After a long while, Lee Jae-yong, sitting opposite Kim Geun-seok, finally couldn't hold back any longer and started making sarcastic remarks.
"Young Master Kim, you've truly played a brilliant game."
"In the midst of laughter and conversation, they completely exposed South Korea's Strong Clan Plan."
In the end, we're the ones who have to clean up your mess!
Kim Geun-seok's face showed anger, and his fists clenched slightly.
He dared not disobey his father, but he would not tolerate these few mortal enemies on the other side at all.
They have fewer points, are ranked lower, and their military technology is not as advanced. Where do they get the confidence to challenge us?
"Hmph~"
"Is it fun to just talk? No matter what, my Kim family is doing it for the sake of the Settlement, unlike some people who only know how to line their own pockets with points..."
"You!" Upon hearing this, Choi Tae-won, Park Jeong-yong, and Lee Jae-yong all looked furious.
"Alright, stop arguing." Park Seong-man tapped the table lightly and said coldly.
"I didn't call you here to listen to your arguments, and I don't have time to waste on you."
"The Winter Is Coming 'Instance will be available tomorrow, and all four of your Four Great Families must send representatives to participate!"
"And we must win!"
"The Kim family will continue to take command, and the other three families must cooperate actively; there can be no infighting!"
Park Seong-man speaks very frankly and with great weight.
Even though the Choi, Park, and Lee families were very unwilling, they still had no choice but to nod in agreement.
"Now that the Strong Clan Plan has been exposed, let's go all the way."
"The giant howitzers you bought from the Lee family Italy Settlement, the armored motorcycles you acquired from the Lee family Eagle Settlement, and the steel excavators from the Park family... all of these need to be brought into the Instance tomorrow," Park Seong-man instructed.
In the Strong Clan Plan, the Four Great Families have their own tasks.
The Kim family is responsible for replicating the Kim 7V Tank, a major Land Warfare combat force!
The Lee family is responsible for replicating the Choi 9 Howitzer Vehicle strategic Land Warfare weapon!
The Choi family is responsible for replicating the Lee 3B Armored Motorcycle, currently the fastest Land Warfare Military Ordnance on Azure Star!
The Park family is responsible for replicating the Goryeo Steel excavator, which can be used to alter terrain and dig trenches!
These pieces of equipment were actually modified from blueprints purchased from other Settlements.
They had been hiding all this time so that one day they could launch a surprise attack and eliminate key figures in other Settlements.
Now that the plan has been exposed, let's just lay it all out!
He vented all his anger on Lin Ye.
"Each faction must select its most elite Challengers to ensure that the 50,000 Challengers in this round of the Instance are all the best of South Korea Settlement!"
"Furthermore, we should have relevant media outlets issue a statement saying that the Lin Ye in the Great Xia Settlement are disrupting the peace and tranquility of our South Korea Settlement."
"Next, the South Korea Settlement will join forces to break through Lin Ye's Instance! And eliminate Lin Ye!"
