The Koreans Picking a Fight!
After expressing his sympathy for the Dahe Settlement, Lin Ye prepared to turn off all communication devices.
Because it was completely useless, we received no help whatsoever.
His design concepts and military technology are far ahead of the rest of the world, so reading these boring news articles feels pointless and it's difficult to gain any useful knowledge online.
Just as Lin Ye was about to turn off the TV, several news items suddenly caught his attention.
That was a channel called Voice of South Korea.
The first news item above is:
According to scholars from the South Korea Settlement, the aircraft carriers, missiles, Atomic Bombs, and other technologies in the Lin Ye Instance are likely plagiarized from the research findings of the South Korea Research Institute...
This made Lin Ye feel nauseous, and he couldn't help but frown.
The South Korean settlement was located between the Great Xia Tenglong settlement and the Great He settlement, and in terms of strength, it was inferior to both.
Previously, they had always lived under the oppression of the Dahe Settlement. Later, Park Seong-man, a Level 4, finally emerged from the Settlement, they were able to barely gain a foothold.
Now that Daiwa is ruined, South Korea has become more confident and has openly started to jump up and down, even daring to so clumsily try to frame itself.
Let's look at the second news item.
[According to South Korea genetic experts, Lin Ye is highly likely a descendant of a Goryeo people professor who taught in Great Xia, and Lin Ye should be of Goryeo bloodline! The technologies such as aircraft carriers and missiles should be considered the common property of South Korea...]
Upon seeing this, Lin Ye's nausea worsened, and he almost vomited.
Back in my previous Blue Star, the Koreans were always jumping up and down, plagiarizing Dragon Country's achievements, shamelessly registering various intangible cultural heritages, and even gloating over it.
Little did they know that it was simply that Dragon Country didn't take them seriously, because throughout history, Koreans had only ever been a vassal state of Dragon Country.
When all nations came to pay tribute, because of its proximity, it could only kneel as the youngest brother at the very front.
China will pay attention to the US, Russia, and even India, but it will never pay attention to South Korea.
Those Koreans are all extremely insecure; they love using these disgusting methods to attract Dragon Country's attention.
Now... I've been transported to a new world, but history always seems to repeat itself.
Koreans in this world are still annoying, still both insecure and arrogant.
The statement that "Lin Ye should be of Goryeo bloodline" in particular left Lin Ye feeling rather stifled.
I'm a time-traveler, I have no parents, how do you know my lineage?!
Lin Ye continued reading and found a third news item, a video titled "The Showdown of Young Genius Designers "...
This news story should more accurately be described as a live video recording.
In the video, a young man with dyed blond hair, a parted hairstyle, and light makeup is showing off his fist to the screen.
Putting everything else aside, this man was indeed very muscular, and with his bare arms, he looked a bit like a male prostitute kingpin.
His gaze was extremely arrogant, giving off a superior vibe, while his eyebrows and eyes revealed a kind of refreshing, "punk" style.
But the fact that her face, made up to look more exquisite than a woman's, made it feel very jarring.
The young man raised his head and took two steps forward.
Behind him, a group of men in suits began to bow and scrape, greeting him in unison, "Greetings, young master!"
"Lin Ye! I am Kim Geun-seok, the eldest son of the Kim Family Conglomerate in South Korea!"
"I question your performance in the 'Raging Waves' Instance! All your technical achievements are stolen from South Korea!"
You now have two choices!
In the video, Kim Geun-seok has a murderous look on his face.
"First! All your technological achievements will be handed over to South Korea for review to determine if you have committed theft... At the same time, you will be required to relocate to South Korea Settlement to cooperate with the investigation!"
"Secondly! That is to accept Kim Geun-seok's personal challenge! This is also a duel between two top Designers!"
"Our duel is simple: we'll each release an Instance, and no weapons that appeared in your Instances Instance allowed! Either I design the Instance and you challenge it, or you design the Instance and I challenge it!"
"If you can beat me, it means you have extremely high design talent, South Korea can recognize you! We will also forgive your plagiarism."
"If I win, you must hand over all the technology to South Korea and remain South Korea forever!"
Finally, Kim Geun-seok raised his fist again and slammed it twice against the camera lens on the screen.
"Lin Ye, I await your reply!"
Then the video abruptly stopped, turning into a series of white mosaics.
This video truly baffled Lin Ye.
After thinking it over carefully, he finally realized that Kim Geun-seok was the guy who had been ranked ahead of him before, but was squeezed out of the top 50 after the last Raging Waves.
No wonder they're of Koreans descent; they're so ridiculously trying to piggyback on their own success. Looks like they're really unhappy about being squeezed out.
He tried to put on a fierce and menacing look, but Lin Ye only found it ridiculous.
Who the hell do you think you are?
Why should others have to accept your challenge just because you say so?!
With a little thought, Lin Ye wouldn't bother with Kim Geun-seok. It would be a complete waste of time; what would it be for? Just to prove a baseless accusation?
First of all, this is a world controlled by the Firmament, where no violence is possible. If I simply ignore this guy, he can't do anything about it.
It's simply a matter of pulling yourself into his Instance.
However, Lin Ye now has the Exemption Authority and is not afraid of this at all. Moreover, even if he is really dragged in, with the weapons that Lin Ye can use in the Instance, he can completely crush Kim Geun-seok.
If you really want a challenge, go out into the Raging Waves! Why bother whining here?!
Furthermore... Kim Geun-seok's challenge was clearly driven by his own agenda.
The fact that Lin Ye cannot use the weapons from his previous Instance is clearly a gamble that he has no other skills. The intention is to provoke Lin Ye and make him accept the challenge in a fit of anger.
These people who stage accidents aren't afraid of you arguing with them; what they're really afraid of is you just walking away.
"What a clown..." Lin Ye shook his head helplessly and turned off the TV.
(PS: After some thought, I still want to torment the Koreans; it feels more appropriate. What do you guys think? I can tell you my story with the Koreans later when I have time.)
