Chapter 195 - Expansion.
Rudra had a hard time with the officials of the Church , however he had somehow gained over 5000 reputation points with the Church of Light as a result. 3000 more and he could be promoted to the position of Honorary Cardinal! Then he could mobilize paladins under the Church's banner.
He had no interest in becoming a Cardinal though , it was not worth working towards , he would let nature take its course with this one , if in the future he would cross paths with a quest that raised his reputation with the Church , then he would take it. But he would not go out of his way to earn the missing reputation points.
The first division under Legolas had been ordered to mobilize in 3 days time. They would arrive in Purplehaze city 5 days later. That was the perfect time , as according to Rudra's reincarnation knowledge , only a week was left untill the conquest of cities started.
It was a week since the second update?and today should be the day where the conquest was officially introduced.
Yume , Karna and Jhonny were very supportive of Rudra throughout the journey back to Hazelgroove kingdom , as they understood that the man had made tough choices.
Rudra was thankfull for this as he needed it. Images of Princess Ruby kept flashing his mind , and he knew that he would not be able to get her out of his mind anytime soon. However , he did not regret his decision to ask for the archer division. His goals were too big for him to succumb to personal desires.
He had not given up on the princess , only that the time was incorrect. Someday he would go back for her to Vanaheim.
Coming back to Purplehaze , Rudra engrossed himself in preparatory work for the coming scuffle. Meetings were scheduled with each of the elders as reforms were started to be made in the guild as well.
Department heads were introduced under Elders , who would be looking at the day to day working of specific departments.
The legislative and administration division of the True Elites was expanded , now including Amelia as An elder and Pinklotus as Department Manager.
50 new recruits were added in this division , who were handpicked in the real world with knowledge about running a successful administration.
Professors of Macroeconomics , Societal behaviour , Cultural heritage and many more from prestigeous universities such as Harvard and Stanford were hired at astronomical pays and made to sign non disclosure agreements.
About 700 new lifestyle players were hired by the guild , A new department manager was appointed in Alex Hudson , a talented architect who was famous for his artistic building designs and unique construction ideas. He had also majored in human resource management in real life , and was hailed as the number one architect in Hazelgroove kingdom.
The Lifestyle guild was to see rapid expansion, Except the potionology department directly under Fatty Kalash , the other departments would see a blended approach , with inter reliance and standard manufacturing practices.
Rudra had planned on opening one flagship Elite lifestyle store in every major city in the continent in the coming future. He planned on opening 21 new locations. Making Elite lifestyle a continental brand. Hence he wanted to standardize the product lists and shop layouts. Naturally that meant he overloaded Fatty with work.
Why was he preparing this stuff before the struggle for becoming city overlords even started? , It was because he knew that following the city supremacy struggle , the landscape of the game would change forever , and land prices would soar . He was preparing to move fast , while competition was still low.
While Rudra , Karna , Jhonny and Yume were away on the mission , Rudra had entrusted SMG to conduct preliminary rounds of Elite recruitments for the assault guild.
There were over 100,000 applicants wishing to join the Elites , however after SMG's preliminary vetting only a small total of 2000 were left.
This was a abysmall number . The Elites recruitment standards were soo high that 98% of the applicants failed the preliminaries.
After the first and second round only 1200 applicants were left. Of which Rudra looked at the personal profiles of the remaining candidates , and those he found shady or those who had no families and nothing to loose and could hence could be bribed or bought , were rejected. Those who were selected were given a promised contract and a monthly pay of 100,000 dollars , and were asked to move to the Elite tower along with their families.
Only those who finally accepted the conditions and moved into the upside were finally accepted into the guild .
Overall the guild saw a massive upgrade in numbers , the total elites were increased to whopping 2100 members.
50 New logistic members , 700 new lifestyle members and 800 new Assault squad members were added to the already existing member count , hence?bringing the total head count at 2100 Elites.
More and more people had quit the service guild however and the numbers had dwindled to 9987 service members of the initial 100,000 . The rest chose to reset their accounts.
With this shuffle , the service division was also put under the logistics division headed by PinkLotus .
The assault division was headed by vice guild master Karna himself . Apart from that a secret subdivision called the intelligence division was also formed. Headed by SMG , its main job was to monitor certain targets and people in other main cities in the coming future for intel gathering purposes. However they were not a official divison as such as they were designated only under the assault member banner.
The inauguration ceremony of the new members would be conducted in 2 days time , where a massive celebration would take place.
However before that , the much awaited announcement came .
SYSTEM ANNOUNCEMENT : In one weeks time at 12:00 AM GMT , the city domination event would take place across the map....
