22: The copy ends, no one survives!
Ito Hidekazu and Singh floated on the sea, having completely given up resistance.
What they longed for now was to leave this instance immediately.
Boom!
Just then, a torpedo shot out from the Extinguish Country Fleet and exploded directly in front of Ito Hidekazu and Singh.
Amidst the ear-piercing explosion and the intense pain from their bodies.
The world before their eyes simultaneously turned blood-red.
A large “Death” character slowly emerged.
At the same time, the Sky Curtain’s notification also sounded.
“Sky Curtain Notification: You have died in the instance due to a torpedo attack from the Extinguish Country Fleet!”
“Due to your death, this Raging Sea instance challenge has failed! You will be deducted 200 personal points!”
“Since all Challengers in the instance have died, this instance is about to close!”
“…20…”
“…18…”
“…15…”
Ito Hidekazu and Singh had both been teleported out of the instance, and the instance’s live broadcast view changed from the Challenger’s perspective to an overhead view.
During the 20-second gap before the instance closed, all spectators got a glimpse of the Extinguish Country Fleet in its entirety.
The majestic Aircraft Carrier fleet, the terrifying array of hundreds of warships, made people feel as if they were there, even as mere onlookers.
Their entire being was enveloped by fear.
At the same time, the Sky Curtain’s settlement screen was also displayed synchronously.
In fact, the so-called settlement was a statistical count of the number of people eliminated by this instance; each displayed number represented a horrifying, bloody reality.
“This instance’s statistics are as follows:”
“Instance Elimination Count: 6500 people!”
“Instance Longest Duration: 26 hours”
“Instance Completion Rate: 0%!”
“Instance Progress: 1%”
…
Among these, the three most important indicators, first and foremost, were the instance elimination count.
The instance elimination count does not refer to people killed in the virtual instance, but rather those who, due to failing this instance mission, ran out of points and directly disappeared from this world.
Raging Sea directly eliminated 6500 people; this is after removing the 3000 Challengers who chose to surrender at the very beginning, meaning that out of 7000 people, 6500 were directly killed.
This mortality rate is ridiculously high!
Additionally, the completion rate and instance progress are also important indicators for measuring the difficulty of an instance.
All these statistics from the Sky Curtain, without exception, proved that Raging Sea was a well-deserved Infernal Grade instance.
Taking advantage of these few seconds of countdown, the bullet comments also began to become active.
“Is this… the oppressive power of an Infernal Grade instance?!”
“Did you just see it? That was an Aircraft Carrier, an Aircraft Carrier that countless experts on the entire Azure Star are researching!”
“Lin Ye alone actually possesses so many warships? And such a massive Air Force power, in both sea and air, Raging Sea is top-tier!”
“It’s too terrifying, even a master like Ito Hidekazu had no power to resist, he was completely crushed.”
“Now I just pray that next… I don’t get drawn into this instance.”
“To be clear, this instance is simply impossible to conquer; those poor LV0 souls, whoever enters dies. Unless, they choose to surrender as soon as they enter!”
The bullet comments floated for a few seconds, all without exception expressing fear of the Raging Sea instance.
Then, the countdown ended, and everyone was pulled out of the live broadcast.
The debut of Raging Sea ended here.
-------------------------------------
Looking at the notification on the large screen that the Raging Sea instance had closed, the meeting room of the Great Xia First Research Institute was silent.
Everyone’s face held a look of shock and dismay.
Even Director Ding Chang, at this moment, had sweat beading on his forehead.
He kept muttering to himself.
“It’s too astonishing… This Lin Ye is truly too astonishing.”
Finally, a researcher could no longer suppress his excitement and shock, stammering:
“Director, this Lin… Lin Ye, has mastered Aircraft Carrier… Aircraft Carrier technology!”
“It’s an Aircraft Carrier! It’s the Aircraft Carrier we’ve dreamed of!”
“So… an Aircraft Carrier looks like this.”
For these researchers, the scene of dozens of Aircraft Carriers pressing down in the instance just now was simply too captivating and mesmerizing.
The Great Xia First Instance Technology Research Institute’s main research direction was in the naval aspect.
The research on Aircraft Carriers has always been the top priority of this Great Xia First Research Institute.
Before this, under Ding Chang’s leadership, the Aircraft Carrier’s carrying capacity and propulsion issues had been resolved, but the energy system problem had always been a bottleneck.
Leading to the Aircraft Carrier technology never being truly usable in instances.
At this moment, seeing the Aircraft Carriers in Raging Sea, everyone naturally yearned for them.
Moreover, to a certain extent, the emergence of Aircraft Carriers in Raging Sea also gave them a reference; at the very least, it provided room for imagination.
“This Lin Ye is truly a genius among geniuses!”
“His instance design methods are ahead of the entire world, and the technological applications in his instances are incredibly powerful.”
“Such a massive instance, such powerful military technology, it’s hard to imagine that one person created this in one day. It’s too exaggerated.”
“Director, with so many people in our research institute researching day after day, we haven’t been able to overcome the Aircraft Carrier problem, how exactly did this Lin Ye do it… He absolutely cannot be just an ordinary person!”
“Such a talent, we must recruit him to our research institute no matter what!”
The meeting room was abuzz with discussions; some were commenting on the ingenious design of Lin Ye’s instance, while others were marveling at the power of the Aircraft Carrier fleet.
Zhao Jianyu, however, was still immersed in the Raging Sea instance at this time, not having fully recovered.
Originally, she would have thought that Lin Ye’s instance would be conquered by Ito Hidekazu, and she even felt a bit sorry for Lin Ye.
As a result, the reversal of the ending directly dispelled all doubts.
The most terrifying thing was that the completion rate of this Raging Sea instance was only one percent…
This meant that the Extinguish Country Fleet was not the entirety of this instance!
If one were to continue conquering, it was highly possible that even more advanced weapons existed.
Zhao Jianyu didn’t even dare to imagine further.
Without even thinking, in less than an hour, Lin Ye and his Raging Sea instance would cause a huge stir on Azure Star.
Regarding her previous underestimation and doubt of Lin Ye, she couldn't help but feel a sense of shame from the bottom of her heart.
In fact, anyone who could work in this Great Xia Clan First Research Institute was a genius.
Zhao Jianyu is 20 years old this year, and before this, she was also praised by many as a rare elite female Designer of the Great Xia Clan.
But now, compared to Lin Ye, she was simply too inferior.
“Sword Rain.”
“Sword Rain.”
Ding Chang called out several times before pulling Zhao Jianyu back from her daze.
