Chapter 416 - A Win Before The War Even Started
Even her own Triad partners were not keen on paying such a heavy price of war , before under Hao Mi\'s repeated insistence and a lot of loss of face for the triads in the hands of the Elites , they decided to add to contribute to the overall bill contingent to the fact that should Hao Mi fail , she would be removed as a triad head and her position would be absorbed by the two remaining factions.
This meant that should Hao Mi fail ... It would be game over for her . Hao Mi was too consumed in her rage and too conceited and delusional to think that victory was a given . That she did not sit down and think about the consequences of defeat untill it would be too late.
Her forces and means were formidable , but the war was already a political ploy now .... She had nothing but a petty revenge to gain from victory , as the other monetary and political spoils were divided between various investors . However , her defeat would be her alone , which would mean game over .
She blamed everything about this situation on the Elites , who were the root cause of her being in such a miserable situation and vowed to destroy them , even if it was the last thing she did .
Hence purchasing a massive amount of gold in game , driving gold prices up by nearly 5 dollars per gold coin ... The biggest fluctuation in over 5 months in the price of gold was seen.
Hao Mi paid the war indemnity , and declared war on Purplehaze city!
Sirens blared inside Purplehaze city , as the mayor\'s office was delivered a sealed letter from the royal court . Saying that the coming conflict was a internal conflict not harming the interests of the state , and that he had one day to prepare for the coming clash.
Rudra was not one bit surprised when he calmly read the first part of the letter , however when he saw the massive war indemnity figure that was paid to have a shot at Purplehaze city he grinned from ear to ear?, Technically he owned 70% of the guild , which owned Purplehaze city .... Going by the valuation , he was already a multi- trillionare in this life!
The new system of stock market being introduced inside the game world with guilds being companies was a amazing concept that would change the politics of gaming forever.
This time the system update had introduced many important features , with the stock market in place , the guild politics were no longer just about one single guild rising or falling.
Big guilds would supress small guilds knowlings to plummet share price , then buy the cheap shares at penny for dollar rate and help the small guild rise from ashes untill their share value is wayy more overvalued and pumped than it should be , before dumping them all to make big bucks.
Many such events would become common place as even the commoners would try their best to help the guilds they were invested in go higher.
Although Rudra was not planning on going public with his guild as of now , he was not completely against the idea.
However it all depended on how they perform in the coming war in 24 hours. The enemy were already marching and camping outside their gates , at the end of 24 hours both sides would have respawn option off untill the war is concluded with a clear winner.
Although with everything Rudra had in his arsenal he was not worried about loosing this war ... He was actually quite looking forward to it , to show his true worth to the world . However his meeting with his sister Patricia just a few hours ago was continuously bothering his mind. Her advice making Rudra\'s blood boil in anticipation ... As he asked himself \' Can you actually pull this off? \'.
-------
( A few hours ago , Rudra just walked out of the knight\'s hall after being successfully promoted )
The moment Rudra walked out of the knight\'s hall , he was taken in by a bear hug by a huge woman.
Rudra was suffocated by the two huge protruding mounds on his face , as the tight arms around his back were exerting enough force to snap him in half.
Patricia took a good look at Rudra and smiled?as she said " Soo you pulled it off .... Congratulations".
Rudra grinned , as he gasped for air , before saying " Thankyou? "
Patricia said " when I first saw you i never thought that you will actually be able to come this far , as even though every once in a while there comes a star with bright potential . To be unperturbed by the darkness and keep shining , not everyone can do it , but you actually did it , something even I could not ... But you did it ! I\'m soo proud ".
Patricia squeezed Rudra\'s biceps that made him wince in pain , however he endured it with a twitching face.
Before Patricia said " come to the mansion ... I assume you got a legacy parchment didn\'t you ? "
Rudra nodded , although he did not understand how Patricia knew .. but since she did he would just play along and understand what she wanted to talk about.
Since the war mongers would currently be in a state of shock to see the massive war indemnity feature , Rudra knew he had some hours of free time at hand.
