Karna was a little scared now as he said " Guild master , how about we recruit some more members , like a few 10,000 odd or so , even if they dont fit the build we can still choose good players at level 40 or above that we can rope in ... ".
Rudra just raised his hand " NO! " He said firmly!
" We are the Elites and only the Elites shall be worthy to stand amongst us ". Rudra declared.
Karna looked down sheepishly , ofcourse even he wanted only the Elites to stand amongst them , however the overwhelming numbers disparity between them and the opposing faction made him a little desperate for more help.
Rudra said " i understand your concerns , however they are unnecessary , let a million of them charge on us and we will still stand tall on their corpses ".
Everyone's eyes widened in shock , where did the guild leader gain his confidence from? What cards does he have hidden?
However releif was the emotion everyone felt , if the boss said they would stand tall. Then to hell with the number disparity they would stand tall period!
Rudra began his explanation " If we play our cards right , the massive number of 4,00,000 can be reduced to nearly 2,50,000 even before the war starts , as for how and when , leave it to me ".
Everyone nodded , the boss had spoken .
Rudra continued " The most important thing we need to do currently is to bait the Alliance into declaring war on us , just that much , we just need those idiots to send a war request , for us to win the war with 100% certainty ".
Well everyone wanted to know , how that would change anything however Neatwit was the one to voice out that questuon for everyone as he said.
" umm , guild master , how would that change anything? ".
Rudra chuckled as he said " The defending faction , chooses the terrain for the war. There are many different types of terrains that can be chosen , and some of them render numbers advantage useless! ".
Everyone's eyes widened , although the war feature had been around for quite sometime now with many guilds having chosen many different battlefields , although it was true that there were many terrains , but there was none that could negate such a huge numbers advantage.
Sensing their doubts Rudra said " We will choose the battlefield , ' fort knox ' , it is a fort type defensive battlefield that is ideal for defense , i know what you all are thinking , that although its a fort in name , it has three massive gates that lead straight into the interior . It is far from impregnable . However naturally i have my own arrangements ".
Everyone dispelled their doubts , the leader had spoken , however what Rudra said next is what blew their minds completely .
Rudra started explaining his BIG PLAN
" The thing we should focus now , before the war is something completely else. First arrangement that i assign SMG is arming our members to the teeth , buy the best armours , best weapons , best skillbooks everything , make an announcement in the guild that any weapon and skill book they wish to purchase , the guild will foot the bill , just make the troupe stronger".
SMG widened his eyes in disbelief , however he instantly nodded , he understood his duty and that was all that he needed to do .
" Augustus Won knight has informed me that there is a riot upcoming in the city , it will see a lot of turmoil inside Hazelgroove and especially in PurpleHaze city. The crown prince is a necromancer and there will be a great public backlash when the news is leaked . The NPC shops will close and the city will go under protest, however for us its an opportunity and we will strike big should it all as planned ". Rudra said
" We are going to buy every single plot of land available in PurpleHaze city , Augustus is a Duke and he can purchase the lands given enough funds . We are going to buy every single shop on sale , every single apartment , hotel and empty unconstructed lands available for purchase ".
Before anyone could process the information about Augustus being a duke and the guild undertaking a massive buying spree Rudra dropped another big bomb
" We are going to employ the entire guards tier one division available for hire , the entire 20 thousand guard divison , it will cost close to 50 million gold a month to mentain the division , however we will undertake that expense ".
" We will use the guards division to mentain order and enforce security of our shops and bought out plot of lands , as we will move through the riots protecting our assets ". Rudra declared .
The guild members found his actions puzzling , why not wait untill the riot was over a month later to buy the plots of land ? That way the hired guards could be put to better use? However questioned Rudra as all his actions always had a deeper meaning that they could not understand .
And that was indeed the case , after the riots end , there will be a flood of nobility titles awarded by the newly crowned King Aman , and the nobles would try use their authority to buy the properties available on the market.
There would be a flood of opposition and the prices of the plots would skyrocket . Soon after the crowning of the new king the special event the ' CITY GARRISON ' would start and at that time guilds would compete to gain the garrison of cities under the rule of King Aman , and Rudra intended to fight for the rights to PurpleHaze city!
Every shop he owned would turn into a bunkers and strategic locations and every soldier he owned into fighting force . At that time the value of this investment would show fruit.
There are wars after wars as the game has entered a chaotic period , many guilds would rise and many would perish when all was said and done . However Rudra with his Reincarnator knowledge aims for the biggest piece of the pie and he has started making the necessary moves.
The first step to becoming the overlords of PurpleHaze City required him to invest a massive sum of 300 million gold!
A weaker man would not be able to spend soo much in a single go! However Rudra was not a weaker man , he was a dragon and his hunger would not be satiated by a small drop in the bucket like 300 million gold !
