73: Daha’s humiliation!
Hearing the Sky Curtain’s threatening prompt, the millions of Da He in the void looked bewildered.
Even the Emperor stood rooted to the spot, at a loss.
“What exactly is going on?”
“Sky Curtain! Why do you condone Designer Lin Ye doing things that violate the Raging Sea’s design rules?!”
“All this time, the Raging Sea has been settled directly at the end. Why does Designer Lin Ye’s Raging Sea have to have an additional East Ying Judgement?” The Emperor shouted loudly towards the Sky, clearly questioning the Sky Curtain.
“Could it be that such a thing is considered reasonable?”
“Lin Ye is a Designer, and we are also Designers. What right does he have to judge us?!”
If Designer Lin Ye’s previous Raging Sea mechanisms could barely be justified, then this so-called East Ying Judgement, in the Emperor’s view, was pure humiliation.
Just deduct as many points as needed; why insist on creating something like this!
“Sky Curtain Prompt: This Raging Sea and Surging Waves Raging Sea is a free mode of total war. Everyone has complete freedom of choice, so task point rewards and penalties are settled separately. The Sky Curtain believes this special settlement method is reasonable, logical, and highly innovative.”
“The Sky Curtain has previously warned all Challengers that malicious harm to friendly NPCs in the Raging Sea is not advocated by the Sky Curtain. If Challengers can clear the Raging Sea, then intentionally harming friendly forces can be seen as a combat tactic, but if Challengers do not successfully clear the Raging Sea, then such malicious behavior should be punished!”
“All Challengers, please prepare. In two minutes, we will enter the final stage of this Raging Sea: East Ying Judgement!”
“Now entering the countdown phase… 120.”
“119.”
The Emperor was furious, his whole body almost trembling with rage again.
To be humiliated in the Raging Sea after failing the task was simply like being repeatedly flogged and trampled upon.
This Raging Sea lasted for more than ten days, and being tormented in the Raging Sea itself had already exhausted people physically and mentally; now they were still trapped within it.
Such a thing seemed unreasonable no matter how one looked at it.
But even if he was furious, there was nothing he could do.
In this world, the Sky Curtain is the eternal authority. As long as the Sky Curtain approves it, no one can disobey.
Even if there are unreasonable aspects, they must wait for the Sky Curtain to correct itself later, not now.
“Everyone, don’t worry…”
He could only comfort his Da He first.
“It was a free mode to begin with, and all our actions and policies are in line with the demands of war, so… even if there’s a judgment, there shouldn’t be too severe a punishment.”
“Everyone in the Raging Sea now has over 10,000 points from the shrine transfers, so there’s nothing to fear even if the punishment is increased.”
“3.”
“2.”
“1.”
Soon, the countdown ended.
In the endless depths of the void, a gigantic scene gradually emerged.
What appeared like a miracle was a magnificent and enormous hall. Wide marble steps rolled like waves, continuously unfolding rows of seats, as if preparing for the arrival of gods.
The lines of each row of seats were smooth and elegant, speaking of silent solemnity and majesty.
The distant scene was even more mysterious; a tall platform gradually rose from the ground, like a dazzling pearl emerging from the sea. The golden light emanating from the platform was so blinding that one could not look directly at it.
As the platform rose, the light and shadow on it began to shift, and a blurred human silhouette gradually became clear. He was like an ethereal immortal, standing in the midst of the light.
The high platform rose more than five meters high, and the silhouette on the platform had sharp eyes, seemingly looking down at every living being on the ground. That majestic aura made the Emperor and others feel immense pressure.
The Challengers looked up at the golden-shrouded silhouette but could not clearly see the person’s face.
That feeling was like a supreme deity, looking down on these one million Da He.
The Emperor looked down and saw a pair of handcuffs on his wrist, he didn't know when they appeared.
“Damn it!”
This was a great humiliation; he was so angry he gnashed his teeth.
“Lin Ye! Damn Lin Ye!”
In his opinion, Lin Ye setting up this kind of formal display clearly revealed his intention to humiliate the Dahe Clan!
These things were not within the scope of the Raging Sea at all, but rather deliberate retaliation.
At this moment, the Emperor even forgot that he had voluntarily brought one million Da He into this Raging Sea.
“Sky Curtain Prompt: This is an area independently set up by Designer Lin Ye within the Raging Sea, named “Earth International Court.” The East Ying Judgement will officially begin here!”
“Next, the Sky Curtain will judge all Challengers based on the severity of their crimes.”
“Challengers whose names are called, please proceed in an orderly manner to the front of the high platform!”
“…”
As the void scene changed, the Raging Sea live broadcast screen also changed.
At this moment, the spectators’ perspective also shifted from above the ruins of Edo City to this International Court.
Everyone was once again dumbfounded.
“This… how is this possible? The Raging Sea was supposed to be over, but then we were pulled into such a strange space again?”
“But I think Designer Lin Ye is a bit too perverted. Although the Dahe Clan are quite annoying, humiliating them repeatedly like this is a bit too cruel.”
“Does the person above know what he’s talking about? I think Lord Ye’s setting is very reasonable. It’s a free Raging Sea to begin with, so it should be calculated separately according to each person’s completion level.”
“Points can be calculated separately, but creating such a judgment is clearly tormenting the Challengers, isn’t it?”
The Raging Sea live broadcast became active once more.
However, at this moment, neither the spectators outside the Raging Sea nor the Challengers within the Raging Sea realized what this International Court represented.
No one realized at this moment that after this wave of judgments, many people would be directly erased!
-------------------------------------
“Iga Ryuji, please come to the judgment platform!”
The first person to be judged was the leader of the ninja group from the Da He Settlement.
He was also the one who betrayed East Ying Island and defected to Eagle Country.
“Traitor!”
“Traitor!”
“Damn Traitor!”
“Iga Ryuji, you are a Traitor, you deserve to be judged!”
For a time, the Challengers were filled with righteous indignation, accusing and cursing Iga Ryuji.
In the minds of these people, Iga Ryuji also bore an undeniable responsibility for East Ying Island’s crushing defeat.
If Iga Ryuji had merely surrendered, at most he would be considered cowardly and afraid of death. What was hateful was that this guy also leaked all the Challenger Camp’s information.
The Emperor secretly clenched his fists, his heart filled with murderous intent.
He wished he could kill this Traitor immediately, but there was no need to act while still in the Raging Sea.
Once out of the Raging Sea, the first thing the Emperor would do was to use all Sky Curtain-allowed methods to clear Iga Ryuji’s points and then erase him!
Iga Ryuji lowered his head and slowly walked to the judgment platform.
Actually, he was regretting it to death at this moment; his mind was still muddled.
As a ninja, his Bushido spirit was actually the most steadfast, as the ninja’s creed had always been loyalty!
At that time, he was assigned to infiltrate Eagle Country, originally to steal intelligence from Eagle Country.
But as soon as he set foot on Eagle Country’s soil, he was overwhelmed with shock.
That feeling was as if he had entered a new world!
He saw the Goddess Statue, he saw the Imperial Bay, he saw the prosperity and strength of this Raging Sea world.
Compared to it, the Azure Star in the real world was simply a cultural desert.
Soon… he got lost in that world of debauchery.
At that moment, he even wanted to stay in this world forever.
So when Eagle Country’s FBI found him and asked if he was willing to stay in Eagle Country, to stay in the Raging Sea forever, he actually believed it.
He chose to surrender without hesitation and leaked various troop deployments to Eagle Country.
Then he was directly declared a Raging Sea Challenge failure and was directly teleported to this bizarre void.
Even so, he couldn't help but marvel at Designer Lin Ye’s outstanding Raging Sea design.
Relying on incredibly realistic Raging Sea details and the special event setting of the Heart of Seduction, it made it truly difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion.
“Iga Ryuji, you voluntarily submitted to Eagle Country in the Raging Sea and, to a certain extent, helped Eagle Country foresee the movements of the evil East Ying Island. Your actions in maintaining world peace and human rights should not be judged!”
“Therefore, the Sky Curtain has decided to only deduct 20 points from you, which should be deducted for ending the Raging Sea through task method two: surrendering to Eagle Country!”
Iga Ryuji took a moment to react, and then a look of joy appeared on his face after a long time.
“Thank you for Eagle Country’s grace!”
Iga Ryuji bowed directly to the judgment platform. The Sky Curtain completely ignored him, directly deducted his points, and teleported him out of the Raging Sea.
“What!”
“Iga Ryuji’s actions are not to be punished?!”
“Challengers who fail normal tasks are deducted 500 points, while Iga Ryuji, who betrayed the Challengers, is only deducted 20 points. Isn’t this encouraging Challengers to surrender directly?!”
“Damn it, this isn’t a judgment at all; it’s purely Designer Lin Ye disgusting all Challengers!”
The Da He Settlement people were truly disgusted.
Especially the Emperor, whose face turned green with anger.
He wasn’t angry that Iga Ryuji’s punishment was too light; he had plenty of ways to deal with such a Traitor.
What truly enraged him was Designer Lin Ye’s sinister intention behind this so-called “East Ying Judgement.”
As a top 20 strong Designer, compared to those lower-level Da He, he could naturally see Designer Lin Ye’s intention behind this setting more clearly.
Using this method to encourage people to surrender was to cause disunity within the Challenger Camp.
Everyone would harbor ulterior motives, choosing to surrender directly for survival and providing various camp data to Eagle Country.
Under such circumstances, it would become even more difficult for Challengers to clear the Raging Sea.
