108: Next stop Vladivostok!
"Holy crap!"
"When did the Kim family get so much land warfare military equipment?! Oh my god!"
"Just looking at this scale, it's no less than the strength of any land warfare Settlement on Azure Star."
"Damn it, these South Korean people are hiding so deep, they must have come fully prepared this time!"
"How long have they been secretly developing? I think the South Goryeo Settlement has been plotting for a long time, perhaps they want to become the number one Settlement on Azure Star?"
...
Seeing Kim Geun-seok suddenly pull out so much land warfare military equipment, the Koreans in the live broadcast room immediately got excited.
They had been holding in a lot of frustration from the last instance, and now what they wanted to do was to vent that anger.
"Long live our great Goryeo!"
"Haha! Did you really think our Goryeo had no land warfare?"
"Where are those wild dogs that were barking before? Keep barking!"
"I now declare that the South Goryeo Settlement is the strongest Settlement on Azure Star."
"It's so touching, this is the strength of my Goryeo Kim family. Ten years of drinking ice, but our blood never cooled. We've been biding our time for many years, all for this fatal blow!"
...
The Koreans frantically spammed the screen, completely pushing down all other people's bullet comments.
The entire instance live broadcast now seemed to be completely overrun by Kim Geun-seok's brain-dead fans.
Of course, there were still discerning people in the live broadcast room.
Some observers who were familiar with the weapons of various Settlements immediately noticed the anomaly.
That is, the shape of the Kim family's Kim 7V Tanks was extremely similar to the Teutonic Settlement's Hans A7V Tanks, which were famous throughout the world.
The Hans A7V was a very classic model. Previously, the Designers of the Teutonic Settlement relied on this tank to earn the title of King of Land Warfare.
Although in the past two years, the people of the Teutonic Settlement have had better tank models and gradually phased out the Hans A7V, many people still remembered such a classic tank by heart.
Now it seems that the Kim 7V and Hans A7V have basically the same appearance, seeming to have only minor modifications in some details and different paint colors.
Essentially, they were just reskinned versions of the Hans Tank!
"That's not right... why do Kim Geun-seok's tanks look so much like the Teutonic Settlement's tanks?"
"Damn it, they probably stole the technology directly from the Teutonics, right?"
"That's so 6, I thought the Kim family developed the tanks themselves, but it turns out they're just using someone else's."
"And with this, they still have the nerve to say others steal their Settlement's technology? WDNMD!"
...
The live broadcast room was in chaos again, as the Koreans continued to use their sharp tongues to contend with the entire Azure Star.
Still stubborn...
In the instance, Kim Geun-seok had already ignored the screen full of bullet comments and directly turned off the instance live broadcast display interface.
He didn't have time to pay attention to these verbal battles outside, because the battle had already begun.
The time limit for this mission was only 15 days!
Although it seemed much more generous than the 5-day time limit during the last aerial combat, it was not actually the case.
Land warfare is different from aerial combat. The travel speed of large military equipment is generally slower, and North Korea and Mao Xiong Country are far apart, so fifteen days is actually a bit tight.
Now the Strong Nation Plan has been exposed.
Since the arrow has left the bowstring, it must draw blood!
Kim Geun-seok didn't want to be judged as a failure due to a time-out before even reaching Mao Xiong Country.
That would truly become a joke to the entire world.
"Everyone, prepare immediately!"
"Drive towards the northern border of North Korea!"
With a command, all the Challengers began to move, their order like that of a strictly trained elite unit.
Even before entering the instance, Kim Geun-seok had trained and deployed them, telling them what to do after entering the instance.
Some people directly climbed into the Kim 7V Tanks, as if the massive steel beasts had become their shelters.
Some people picked up guns and ammunition, then jumped into armored vehicles, their movements swift and precise!
Others skillfully moved artillery onto transport vehicles.
The vast land forces quickly left the Blue House and drove north.
Kim Geun-seok, on the other hand, directly jumped into a specially made radio communication vehicle.
This vehicle was also the command center for the entire army.
While allowing the army to start directly, Kim Geun-seok could also continue to consider the next course of action, thus not delaying either.
In the radio communication vehicle, he directly brought up the Earth Online world map.
Next, what he needed to determine was the army's marching route! This was the top priority for land warfare.
The map showed that there were actually two countries between North Korea and Mao Xiong Country.
One was called North Korea, and the other was Dragon Country.
Kim Geun-seok fell into contemplation.
If considering the shortest marching distance, the optimal route would be to pass directly through North Korea and Dragon Country from North Korea, thus directly entering Mao Xiong Country.
The shortest distance between two points is a straight line; this is simple common sense.
But Kim Geun-seok didn't dare to be so aggressive...
Because this could very likely be Lin Ye's trap again!
Kim Geun-seok didn't know what kind of country North Korea was, but judging by the name, it should have some connection with North Korea, so passing through would likely not be a big problem.
However, getting involved with Dragon Country was something that had to be considered carefully, with extreme caution.
During the Raging Sea and Surging Waves instance, Kim Geun-seok also observed the entire process. At that time, the Emperor sent the Shogunate General special forces and the Bacterial Unit to invade Dragon Country.
Kim Geun-seok had also heard of the Shogunate General's strength; he was, after all, an LV4 expert, and his hard power was definitely above his own.
Yet, they were directly annihilated by Dragon Country.
From this, it can be seen that Dragon Country, as a third-party force in this instance, was definitely a bug-like existence.
To be safe, Dragon Country must absolutely not be provoked! Once they intrude, they are highly likely to be treated as invaders.
Fortunately, North Korea also had a direct, very narrow border with Mao Xiong Country.
From there, they could directly enter a city in Mao Xiong Country called Vladivostok.
Then, they could slowly maneuver to penetrate deep into Mao Xiong Country's interior.
Although this route was long and might take an extra one to two days for travel, it was much safer.
"Hmph... Lin Ye! Do you think I'll fall for it this time?"
"I will absolutely not have any involvement with this Dragon Country!"
Kim Geun-seok snorted coldly, feeling a sense of satisfaction from seeing through others, and a smug smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He directly issued the marching route command to his army.
"Everyone listen up, first enter North Korea!"
"Then proceed along North Korea's east coast, all the way to Mao Xiong Country's Vladivostok!"
