MMORPG : Rebirth Of The Strongest Guild Master-Novel

Chapter 540 Rudra's Resolve

The next few weeks saw Rudra only focusing on administration work alongside his main project of looking for the two pages of the demons diary that were not in his posession , however no matter how he looked for them , or which country's library he sent an elite to scour for information , there was little to nothing about the demon's diary.

The rest of the elites in the meantime entered the special event dungeon that opened , that had a very high difficulty and extremely lucrative rewards in the form of tier 3 appropriate equipment.

Rudra was the one who needed new equipment the most , as although he had the doom armour , the rest of his gear was pretty trash.

He needed boots that gave an agility buff , he needed shin pads that were lightweight and mobile , he needed an helmet that would provide him protection against critical headinjuries.

He needed a replacement for his replica of Excalibur and he needed more accessories like the sun god's bracelet that had some offensive capabilities.

There was a lot that needed to be improved in Rudra's gear , that would take his battle prowess to a notch above it already was , as although Rudra had excellent reflexes and skill-set , he had basically not updated his equipment with changing times and now it was completely outdated.

His outrageous battle style made his flaws less evident , however basically the situation was such that he was worse equipped than most elites who took full advantage of the guilds resources and equipment friendly policy to always swap their less levelled equipments for more formidable ones.

The only reason why Rudra realized this flaw was because Ruby pestered him to change equipment , as she sent him elven made chainmail to wear underneath the doom armour to increase his defensive capabilities even more than it already were.

While she also made Rudra promise that in the coming month he would completely change the parts of his gear that were outdated and unnecessary .

Although Rudra had many ideas about where to obtain a worthy sword from , including the legendary sword wielded by Augustus Won Knight , that was in the secret basement of the won knight mansion , there were many other treasures that he had his eyes on , that could become a permanent part of his offense.

However his fighting style was completely ingrained with Excalibur now , and he was familiar with its weight and shape and weight changing abilities.

Although it was outdated , it was a weapon that he could use to 100% of its potential , hence it was a good match for him.

However , looking at the future Rudra knew that his 100% would no longer be enough , as he needed to go a step beyond that , and for that to be possible , change was necessary.

Hence while Karna and the other top Elites raided the dungeon trying to conquer it , they were under orders to try obtain a piece of equipment worthy for Rudra to gear up with .

Rudra did not want set items , as he was sure that he would not replace the doom armour with anything else , hence the choices for him were now to take best individual items and make a hotchpotch with it.

Thankfully for him , a chance did present itself for him to buy essential equipment in the form of the seventh system auction , which was a global affair this time.

Everyone from the same continent could participate in this auction which would be a 3 day long event , with the minimum entering amount being 10,000 gold coins.

The current exchange rate for gold to dollars was

1 gold = 500 dollars , which was stable despite the increased market demand , as now the real world economies monitored and balanced the Omega economy closely , and prevented massive market manipulation or needless pump.

This requirement made it so that most of the independent adventurers would find it hard to enter the auction , however half decent third rate guilds to super guilds would all be present at the auction arena.

And although Rudra had little to no memory about the coming system auction , with this time of his life in the previous lifetime being extremely turmulous, with his mother dying and various real life problems gripping him and him not having much focus in the game. He did have the confidence to enter the auction and successfully bid for quality items with the money he had now.

Ethan had basically sold off the entire Whitecloud city to private companies , racking in incredible amounts of wealth , as the Elite treasury was full of gold at the moment.

This coupled with the fact that he did not need to bid for needless small fry items that he could get otherwise anyway meant that he could undoubtedly enter the auction and fight for select items without any problems.

With his only requirement being some good equipment for himself , and something good for the guild if it shows up at the right price. Rudra was basically preparing to enter the auction as a lightweight for a change.

However with his eyes of truth and his monetary prowess , he was surely not going to let extraordinary items slip through his hands.

In two days time , Rudra was prepared to enter the seventh system auction with all his might!

( Meanwhile Dronacharya )

Dronacharya was desperately liquidating all his assets as he tried to raise capital for the coming system auction.

Initially according to his original plans , he would have already attacked Purplehaze City at this point and defeated the elites to take control of it , before entering this auction to buy the key to unlocking the secret ruins.

However with Rudra displaying unprecedented strength and Conquering Nineclouds kingdom after allying with the Russian mafia , all his plans went south as the invasion of Purplehaze had to be delayed.

With the elders and the core members of the elites all inside the event dungeon this would have been the perfect time to attack , however never did he expect that Rudra would actually choose to not enter the event dungeon and stay back at the capital city.

Dronacharya was thankful that he did not attack the city when Rudra would still have been around , or else he might have tasted defeat due to Rudra's presence in the war.

However with his new alliance with the blood merchants , the probability of defeat was near 0 , as although a bit delayed , he had absolute confidence in beating the elites now!

Hence his only goal now was to somehow enter the auction and obtain the key to the ruins , before defeating the elites and entering it at a later date.

According to his memories the key should go for 2 million gold coins( 1billion dollars) , however he (1 trillion dollars) to bid on the item as a worst case scenario.

The item meant everything to him , as the inheritor of that ancient ruins was undoubtedly going to become number one in the future , no doubt about it , which was why it was not only worth 1 trillion but even 100 trillion if the price should be that high.

Sadly with him helping the blood merchants monetarily , dronacharya was really hard pressed for cash and the 1 trillion was already the very best of what he could muster without going broke.

Even then , before going to the auction he had to agree to one condition of the blood merchants , which was to bid for some page of a demons diary should it appear , and he no choice but to give in to their demands.

Little did dronacharya know that his biggest rival Shakuni , was also going to the auction with hopes of getting his hands on the same item.

( Meanwhile at the Cuber Corp )

" Are you sure you want to release the bronze grade cultivation manual in the coming auction? ". An official asked

" We have no choice , the talented individuals of our planet that break through to the cultivation ranks have no techniques to move forward in their cultivation journey. We need to make information more available , as only with them progressing can we progress as a race ". The senior cuber official said with a serious face.

The cuber corporation was planning on releasing 4 bronze grade cultivation manuals , one for each continent in the upcoming system auction.

It was not part of the initial plans for the game , however with the global situation changing soo drastically , they needed to take desperate measures themselves .
