MMORPG : Rebirth Of The Strongest Guild Master-Novel

Chapter 415 - The Restrictions Lift

The day that the restrictions lifted , and the one year protection period ended , the entire Triad alliance was ready for action , however were shocked silent when the fourth system update was announced.

SYSTEM NOTIFICATION: The system will undergo a 3 hour full system update during which gaming would not be possible starting 12:00 am GMT.

The new patchnotes would include :

1) the restrictions on City wars would be lifted , however every corresponding internal strife must be reported to the Kingdom and the required war indemnity must be paid before any act of aggression. For more details click?here

2) The game will move more towards globalisation , as players can now actively involve themselves in kingdom politics . The rise and fall of each kingdom would affect the entirety of the population.

3)?Guilds will now have the option to?operate like companies in a stock market , where any player can hold a stock of the guild , which may appreciate or depreciate with time . Whereas a system enforced dividend payout would ensure that every share holder gets their due dividend each year.

This process of going public will for now be controlled by the AI , however over time , it may develop into a completely free market.

Explanation : For individual adventurers and players , this is a way to multiply wealth , and for guilds this is a way to secure funding and support growth , generating wealth for every shareholder.

NOTE : share holders donot hold any management rights over the guilds.

4) The world map unlocks , The dark and light faction territories are now highlighted in the world map .

Note : When light faction players enter a dark faction territory , they will have a 90% all stats debuff.

Teleportation between factions is not possible. If a player from the other faction is caught in the enemy territory . Their death would result in a one month suspension from the game.

The entire update notice consisted of 14 points , however these 4 were the most crucial takeaway from the entire list.

For Hao Mi this was absolutely a nightmare as when she read the complete details about the war indemnity clause and the permission needed from the state to start a war , she realized the huge cost involved in starting a war against Rudra.

Although Rudra did not know this , but him constructing a wall around the city , making a teleportation formation and enacting general welfare laws and increasing immigration and decreasing unemployment lead to the overall worth of Purplehaze city increasing by leaps and bounds than his last life.

Meaning that they needed to pay a war indemnity of a monetary value of somewhere around 6 trillion dollars to start a war against Purplehaze city.

Now wether it was Hao Mi , or Ethan Grey or even the world's richest man ... 6 trillion dollars was not something they can fork out causally without gauranteed returns .

This made Hao Mi absolutely livid , as her spending spree equipping her Army and hiring all the mercenaries had already blown a hole in her finances . She was not having enough funds to operate her factions day to day operations currently , however there was no way for her to raise the 6 trillion dollars worth of capital in a moment's notice to start this war....

Her borrowing soo heavily from others would spell doom for her as she would not be the one calling the shots anymore , and the pipedream to make the entire city of Purplehaze suffer would just remain a pipedream forever , as unless the 6 trillion became 12 in under a year , noone was going to foot the bill for her.

This put Hao Mi in a very tight spot , and gave Rudra some much needed time as he sorted things out with Karna.

--------

( The True Elites guild headquarters )

Rudra and Karna were having a walk in the guild premises , and although both of them were silent , the atmosphere was a bit awkward between the two.

Rudra was not stupid that he would doubt Karna and his loyalty , however he did not understand why he went to meet Hao Mi In the first place , if it was to spy on her , then he needed to realize that noone would be that dumb to tell him something tangible.

What Rudra failed to consider was that , him being an experienced veteran in scheming could see such tricks failing from miles away , but for laymen like Karna it seemed like a really good plan . Rudra evaluated karna by his own IQ , which was his mistake.

For Karna although he did nothing wrong the moment he met Rudra he knew something was off. Although the two talked very seldom to each other about personal life and other things , they were undoubtedly very close friends.

It was one of those instant connections that do not need years to foster. Karna could look at Rudra's face and understand half his mind , it was just the connection he had with the man .

For him , the respect was the main reason why he joined the Elites . Even Rudra respected him , valued him and never put him under him , which for a prideful man like karna was everything.

He did not want money , he did not want fame , he just wanted to enjoy this game called Omega with his guildmates and a leader he could genuinely follow . However somewhere down the line he became the vice guild master of a notorious guild called True Elites , who was always amidst some sort of crisis.

Not that he disliked it , he quite enjoyed the busy life , however at this place now that he got adoration and respect of thousands . He finally felt rooted in a way that he could never detatch , the Elites were a part of him . If before this it was loyalty , now it was akin to betraying oneself.

However sure he was of this , for men to convey their feelings properly to other men was impossible , hence even he walked in silence not knowing how to break the silence.

However the beauty in friendship of men was also the point that somethings did not need to be conveyed , as Rudra through his walk alongside karna could see that the man had clear eyes but an ashamed face , meaning he did nothing wrong , just something dumb.

Rudra did not need to learn anything more as he decided to let it be , while Karna wanted to say something but decided against it as he gave Rudra a goofy smirk to signify , ' why we walking like a romantic couple? '.

Rudra said " The forums say that we had a fight you know .... It's the fatty who started it ".

Karna chuckled as he said " Yeah it's funny ".

Rudra continued " Someone on the forums said that after everything you have done for the guild i still treat you like an afterthought .... And that you are done with this sh** , can you believe that ? ". ????????????????e????????. c????m

Rudra said the same words that Karna said to Hao Mi , as it made Karna instantly turn red in embarassment .... He was caught.

However Karna just smiled and said ," A wise guy... Spoke facts".

The pair looked at each other and bursted laughing , as Karna put his arm around Rudra and said " U alright ! "

The two were having a budding moment of bromance when Skyla and Naomi were just staring at them from the end of the corridor ... With Skyla giving a loud *cough*.

Karna instantly took his hands off Rudra and started to admire the ceiling , while Rudra admired the floor.

The two instantly dispersed and went their seperate ways , leaving the girls to wonder what the hell was happening here.

The situation became soo awkward that Skyla said " Naomi , by chance do you think that the guild leader is someone who takes the back route instead of the front gate? , I know Karna because he is my boyfriend ... However I don't know about the guild leader , as he doesn't sleep with you , so maybe ... ".

Naomi glared at Skyla , as she said " NO ! "

Skyla chuckled , she loved teasing the conservative Asian Naomi . She was actually geniunely pleased to see the two sharing a close friendship.

Karna was a shy guy in real life , hence seeing him open upto someone soo much , she knew that Rudra was special. Although she did not have an overwhelming loyalty for the guild , she quite liked her new life here , as well as had genuine respect for the young guild leader .

Apart from Jhonny English , he was the coolest person she knew , karna following at number 3 spot.

However her mind quickly wandered from this train of thought to the thought of , Where was Jhonny English?

His whereabouts unknown from a long time , which usually meant death in the profession she was in ... , And her worries were not unfounded .

------

( Somewhere in the lower layers of the Game world's surface )

Jhonny was inside a deep cavern that seemed unending , he did not understand how the straight road he was walking on suddenly opened up into a bottomless pit that kept going on for 5 killometers downwards .

Jhonny cursed " What is this nonsense , is this journey to the centre of the Earth? Am I going to be chased by dinosaurs? "

At this moment , a loud screech sound was heard.....
