25: Keep collecting points!

Upon entering his villa, Lin Ye found it to be quite luxurious.

It was a world apart from his previous cramped rental apartment.

The grand hall resembled an exhibition space, filled with an air of breathtaking luxury. The first thing that caught his eye was the dazzling crystal chandelier, sparkling like a translucent gem in the magnificent hall.

Under the lights, the gilded decorations and furniture reflected a captivating glow. The murals on the walls, the patterns on the carpets, and the exquisite furnishings all exuded unparalleled luxury and taste.

What was most captivating, however, was undoubtedly the fireplace. Located in the center of the hall, it not only appeared extremely high-end and luxurious but also gave off a warm and comfortable feeling.

Everything could be described with one phrase: extravagant indulgence.

In this world, with enough points, one could buy any life they desired.

If converted to the material standards of his previous life, Lin Ye's current more than 10,000 points were basically equivalent to a net worth of 50 million in his previous life, definitely putting him among the upper class.

However, his energy was not focused on these things at all; what he was thinking about at this moment was only the instance dungeon.

Honestly, one Raging Sea and Surging Waves was enough for him to live comfortably for the rest of his life in this world.

But Lin Ye was not content to stop there.

There were two other top-tier instance dungeons among the Five Great Powers waiting for him to create!

Besides that, Lin Ye also had an idea hidden in his heart.

He wanted to accumulate his level and points through one instance dungeon after another to an extent no one could match…

Then, he would break the rules of the Sky Curtain and see what was truly above the dome of Azure Star.

He was a person who loved to get to the bottom of things, and this was true in his previous life as it was in this one.

As long as he lived under the control of the Sky Curtain, he could not achieve true security.

Lying on the comfortable and soft sofa, Lin Ye did not hesitate at all and re-entered the Genesis Space.

During his absence, the blue planet called Earth Online in the Genesis Space was constantly being refined with more details.

Lin Ye took a general look and saw that the details for Eagle Country were already quite complete.

This meant that the upcoming Raging Sea and Surging Waves instance dungeon would be even more realistic and rich.

In fact, some details of the Raging Sea and Surging Waves that were previously released had not been fully added yet, because Lin Ye was worried that it would take too long and waste the precious 30-day protection period.

Additionally, he was fairly certain that the Challengers of Azure Star would find it very difficult to conquer the latter half of the instance dungeon.

By adding a little detail each day and slowly perfecting it, nothing would be delayed.

At the same time, on this virtual planet, the outlines of Mao Xiong and Dragon Country were gradually becoming clear.

The majestic landscape of the Siberia Plateau stood on the earth like a masterpiece of nature, with winds howling as if one could hear an ancient call.

The Great Wall, this winding giant dragon, was even more lifelike on the virtual planet. Every brick and stone carried thousands of years of history and stories, witnessing the rise and fall and changes of Dragon Country.

Lin Ye was not in a hurry to create the Winter is Coming and Great Wall Watch instance dungeons; he only needed to provide some basic data to the Genesis Space, and the system would slowly generate them in the background.

Once the maps, weapons, and other elements were completed, designing the missions would be an easy task.

Just as Lin Ye was still working tirelessly in the Genesis Space,

a prompt from the Sky Curtain suddenly appeared before his eyes.

“Dear Designer, after review by the Sky Curtain, the number of Challengers for your Raging Sea and Surging Waves instance dungeon has been increased from 10,000 to 20,000. This is to provide a better instance dungeon experience for the Challengers of Azure Star.”

“At the same time, the Sky Curtain has re-evaluated your instance dungeon and confirmed that its difficulty level remains Infernal Grade.”

“Your instance dungeon has been at the top of the Heavenly Leaderboard for 12 hours. As the duration of your top ranking increases, you will receive consecutive rewards provided by the Sky Curtain. Please continue your efforts.”

After review, the Sky Curtain doubled the number of Challengers.

Lin Ye was not surprised by this situation at all.

The increase in Challenger numbers indicated that the Sky Curtain believed there was no hope of conquering the instance dungeon with the previous scale of 10,000 people, which is why it forcibly increased the number.

This adjustment, in fact, was also subtly lowering the difficulty of the instance dungeon.

But for Lin Ye, it made no difference; in fact, he considered it a good thing.

He did not believe that expanding the number of people to 20,000 would have any effect on conquering the instance dungeon, given Azure Star’s current military technology.

Technological barriers simply cannot be broken through by a human wave strategy.

On the contrary, the increased number of people would allow Lin Ye to harvest points faster!

So, Lin Ye smiled faintly and returned to the Genesis Space to continue his work.

-------------------------------------

At the same time.

In the Dahe Clan’s Settlement, inside the solemn residence of the Emperor, the atmosphere was heavy.

Before the long tea table, only two people remained, forming a striking scene.

Ito Hidekazu, once so arrogant, was now kneeling before the Emperor, his expression showing unprecedented fear.

He kept his head down, not daring to look up in the slightest, as if all his pride had vanished at this moment.

“Your Majesty,” Ito Hidekazu’s voice was filled with deep self-reproach, “the failure of this instance dungeon was indeed my fault.”

The air was filled with a sense of sorrow and helplessness.

Ito Hidekazu continued, “The dangers of the Raging Sea and Surging Waves instance dungeon far exceeded our expectations.

Its difficulty is extremely high, like a giant beast in the deep sea, making one feel awe. And its clever and complex mission design is even more elusive, full of tricks, making it impossible to guard against. Every step could lead to a desperate situation, and every decision was like walking on a knife’s edge.”

The Emperor gave Ito Hidekazu a cold glance, then sighed deeply.

“Ito-kun, rise. I don’t want to hear your excuses.”

“I just want you to know that you are a genius nurtured by the Dahe Clan with many top-tier technologies. Your role is to represent the Dahe Clan and awe this world.”

“Every one of your mistakes will be seen by the world, losing not only your face but also the face of my Dahe Clan.”

Ito Hidekazu slowly got up from the ground, then gritted his teeth and said,

“Your Majesty, rest assured!”

“Ito Hidekazu will definitely reclaim this lost face myself!”

“I will definitely conquer the Raging Sea and Surging Waves instance dungeon! For you, for Great Harmony, I will definitely eliminate Lin Ye in this world.”
