Lin Ye's Plan!

It's one thing for the seven major gathering places to challenge them.

Why do these ordinary people from the Azure Star dare to chatter on and on here?

Some of them are only at Level 1 or 2. If you really put them in the Great Wall Watch Instance, wouldn't they break at the slightest touch?

Based on Lin Ye's previous observations of most people in this world, they were generally people who enjoyed watching the drama unfold and were always stirring things up.

Their greatest desire is for high-level Challengers to fight each other, as this would increase their survival rate.

The weak naturally have to find ways to survive in the cracks.

But now, they are all standing on the opposite side of Great Xia.

This is completely contrary to the survival rules of Azure Star.

"These news reports are clearly manipulated; they're likely the result of deliberate public pressure created by the seven Settlements to put pressure on our Great Xia."

Lin Ye stated his judgment directly!

The reason is simple: the Great Xia Settlement has always been relatively friendly, and apart from Daiwa and Goryeo, it rarely goes out of its way to cause trouble for other Settlements.

Normally, most people should maintain a neutral stance.

"Public pressure?"

Everyone in the room looked completely bewildered.

Lin Ye then realized that the online entertainment industry in this world was not that developed.

Although there were live streams, they were all Instance battle streams, and all people were watching was fighting and killing.

There is absolutely no profound understanding of smearing, haters, or creating public opinion.

These things have existed since the dawn of humanity and the beginning of communal living, but the people of this world have never paid attention to them.

"Creating public opinion means using underhanded methods to put the majority of people on the opposite side of us... On the one hand, it can incite many hotheads to take the initiative to attack Great Xia, and on the other hand, it can weaken our morale."

Upon hearing this, many people immediately realized that this was indeed the situation in the Great Xia Settlement.

On the day the Great Wall Watch ended, the morale of the Great Xia was at an all-time high, but after seeing that the whole world seemed to be on the opposite side of the Great Xia, many Designers immediately lost their confidence.

"Mr. Lin, you're right!"

"These actions have indeed affected our morale to some extent, but at the same time, our people are indeed finding it difficult to withstand the repeated bombings from the major Settlements," Li Yunlong nodded and said.

Then he stood up, performed a few operations, and projected yesterday's data onto the screen.

Yesterday, a total of 500,000 people were wiped out in the Great Xia, a number that has not decreased significantly.

"Mr. Lin, according to your previous plan, we are already protecting the young Designers, with higher-level players leading lower-level players through Instance..."

"But we can't stop them; people from other Settlements are also frantically conquering the Instance of our Great Xia youth."

"Most of the 500,000 people wiped out yesterday were young Designers who had just finished designing the Instance."

Lin Ye nodded.

This is indeed a point that hadn't been considered before.

Those Instance by young Designers from Great Xia are indeed the best live targets.

Especially after stirring up global sentiment in its large Settlement, more and more people will come to attack the Great Xia Settlement Instance.

Those Instance designed by young Designers are easy to clear with a well-planned strategy.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Ye slowly spoke.

"I think we can close all Instance below the Great Xia Hard-level in the coming days, and even selectively close some Hard-level Instance."

This is the best way he can think of to save lives at this stage.

Make all the low-level players close their crappy Instance and obediently follow the high-level players to do Instance. This way, their survival rate will be maximized.

"Close the Instance?"

For a moment, everyone in the Conference Room seemed to be stunned by Lin Ye's plan.

"Mr. Lin, Instance runs are the main source of points for most people. The points you can get by simply conquering Instance are very limited. If people are allowed to turn off Instance, the points system in the Great Xia Settlement will gradually collapse."

"Commander Li, in these extraordinary times, we must also take extraordinary measures."

"I didn't say it would stay closed indefinitely; three days is enough. Give me three more days, and these seven Settlements will be gone."

Lin Ye spoke calmly, but the entire venue fell silent instantly.

A sense of shock enveloped everyone.

Are they really going to resolve the crisis facing the Great Xia in just three days?!

This was a major event concerning several Settlements, yet Lin Ye described it as nothing more than a trivial matter.

"Mr. Lin. Lin..."

"Haha, I think you've all seen my previous Instance, so please trust me."

"This whole thing started because of me, and I don't want any innocent people to be killed." Lin Ye smiled and looked at everyone present.

With things said to this point, no one could refute it, since Commander Long Yuan had already stated that Lin Ye was the supreme commander of this operation.

Lin Ye's previous performances have proven his exceptional tactical talent.

"Understood, Mr. Lin!"

"Clear!"

"Next, we will have all young Designers in research institutes and the military temporarily shut down their Instances. At the same time, we will issue a call to action throughout the Settlement, urging everyone to close their Instances and avoid combat!"

Lin Ye nodded, then looked at Bai Tianhao beside him and said:

"Bai Yuan, could you give me a brief overview of the basic information about the major Settlements?"

"I need to determine our primary targets for the next attack."

Bai Tianhao displayed all the information about the Settlements he had compiled on the screen and then began to explain it to Lin Ye in detail.

"The Triumph Settlement and the United States Settlement —these two Settlements can be discussed together."

"Both of these are the kind of Settlements that only act for profit. They were originally one race, but later split into two Settlements, though they're still closely connected. The United States Settlement has a larger population, while the Triumph Settlement has many scattered small Settlements throughout the entire Azure Star."

"The Italy Settlement is a pure gathering place for scoundrels. Its Commander, Moso, is a complete mediocre talent, ranked only 30th on the Hero Ranking."

"The reason it became a top-tier Settlement is because of Moso's opportunism; he always managed to gain points by associating with the strong..."

"The Gaul Settlement isn't particularly strong on average; the people of this Settlement don't even seem to enjoy fighting much... but the Bonaparte Family is exceptionally powerful! Especially their Commander, Fulangche, who has held the top spot on the Hero Ranking for decades."

"This last India Settlement is the most bizarre Settlement on the entire Azure Star, Settlement everyone worships the supreme god Brahma."

"This Settlement just got incredibly lucky. They have abundant agricultural resources and usually rely on selling resources to exchange for points, which they then use to buy technology."

They also sell some low-level military technologies at high prices to underdeveloped Settlements to earn more points.
