Chapter 690 Rudra's choice
Rudra had a very tough choice in his hands as every option was enticing to be chosen and if he had the chance he would wish to learn every one of the skills and make them the core of his fighting capabilities.However since that was not possible he needed to make a choice on as to what skills he wanted to chose.
Rudra firstly decided to proceed by shortlisting the choices to just two in each category , and after a lot of thinking he came to the conclusion that from the upgrade card the best two choices were the ultimate knight and time dilation.
From King Hades's skills , he was tempted to choose between Dance Of Death and Demon overlord .
Although he did not know the complete effects of demon Overlord he felt like it was a gamble worth taking as he could feel it in his bones that the move must be something special.
However he did not want to make such an important choice on chance. Ever since he had reincarnated he had made his own chances and depended on luck and fate as little as possible.
It was true that he had gotten lucky a few times , but mostly he got things done through his carefull planning and meticulous execution . Hence although the move was 20% weaker when used with a sword he went with the dance of death as his primary move.
Rudra was aware that the move would be difficult to master , however the rewards for him achieving mastery in that move were significant as well.
He could always control how much effort he needed to put from his side to become the best , however he could not control the base property of attack moves themselves.
Hence deciding to put all his effort into mastering the move on a daily basis, Rudra selected the skill.
Now with one choice made Rudra only needed to pick between ultimate knight and time dilation.
This was a very very difficult choice to make as both moves had their very strong pro points.
The ultimate knight was a very versatile move that would allow him to express the best of both attack and defensive capabilities as he could compress the strength of his massive avatar to his small body and use it for both defensive robustness and attacking efficiency .
Rudra was really tempted to learn this move as it would take his PVE capabilities to next level. Breaking sieges would be a piece of cake in his giant form while routing thousands by trampling them under his feet was also not impossible .
It was perfect if the opponent were going to be someone like scar-face or even the pope , however against Lucifer who had thrice the stats Rudra did , the added defense and attack was going to be useless.
Rudra decided to go for time dilation , as a X10 times time dilation woulf essentially mean a X10 boost to his agility for that time period and basically an exponential increase in power because as per the laws of motion force would equal mass * acceleration .
If he could significantly increase his acceleration it would mean that his attack would undoubtedly be that much more powerful which would make it that much more effective.
In Rudra's eyes that was the only shot he had to ever lay a scratch on Lucifer as the skill coupled with dance of death was the only combo that had the slightest potential to stand up against Lucifer .
Hence with the ultimate goal of taking down Lucifer in mind , Rudra decided that he wanted to go with time dilation as his main skill , as his updated skill counter looked something like this.

With this sealed Rudra breathed a sigh of releif as he saw that he was getting closer and closer to the level 480 mark to ascend to tier 5.
Currently that was his ultimate goal , get to tier 5 in one years time and gather as many followers for Hades as needed before declaring war on the underworld.
Rudra knew that the war for the underworld would not be a short one at all , spanning for months if not years and he did not have that sort of time at hand before the first awakening.
From Here till the war started he needed to work extremely fast and on a lot of areas too , to have a chance to topple Lucifer.
Rudra looked at the third stage of the rise of a relegion quest and took a deep breath when he saw the number of followers that he needed to gather.
-------
Ultimate Level Quest : ' Rise Of A Lost Relegion '
Time Limit : unknown
Difficulty : immeasurable
Rewards : ????
Description : You have successfully started a relegion , but can you really grow it from the ground up to its past glory?
Stage 3 : Obtain 100,000,000 followers
Progress : 20,010,008/100,000,000
Stage 3 rewards : Levels + 100, all stats +5000, + ????
------
Rudra knew that he needed to complete this quest within the 1 year time limit he had set for himself by hook or by crook and since the advent of new players into the relegion had decreased due to mass spread hysteria he needed to find a way to reverse the trend and find a solution to get them to join as fast as possible.
Rudra wanted to leave no corners uncut , from here till June 14 2010 he would grind to his limits and master every single move in his pannel while also achieving the goal of acquiring Trump cards for his battle against Lucifer and completing the stage 3 of the relegious quest and ascending to tier 5 .
It was an insane ambition and committing to it would mean that he would need to give his 100% to the game every breathing second and somehow hope that things would work out his way.
With the fate of humanity hanging in balance , Rudra started his rush towards preparing for the fight of his life.
********
( Meanwhile Max )
Max who had just turned 15 looked at the global situation and wondered what kind of storm awaited his family in the future.
The world had turned into a curfew zone as the military patrolled the streets continuously to mentain order and rebels were shot to death in the name of human alliance.
Overnight the dynamic of the world changed and everyone wanted to become a cultivator now as apparently it was the new global rush.
Although Max did not know about Rudra's true gaming secrets , he was sure that his brother was a cultivator by the explanation provided by the government as to what happens when they ascend to become one.
Max remembered vividly how Rudra's body improved overnight and his physical prowess increased by leaps and bounds a few years ago and understood that it must be the time when he ascended.
Wondering when he would be able to do the same , Max trained with even more intensity at the elite academy , as currently although only 15 and the youngest of every student in the academy , Max was a shining star who came number one in both theory and practical aspects.
The others thought he was a genius just like his strong brother and had excellent genetics , however he was only a hardworker who was smart.
