Chapter 106 - [Bonus ]Whats Next?
The video of the Elite group slaughtering the troll party had became the most viral video of the season , it had more than 300 million views in just 4 days , with extensive coverage by news channels and media.
There were pannels of experts sitting and dissecting the video , analysing the fight. Giving a reason for the bizzare abilities shown by the Elites. But the thing was the experts sitting in the pannel were a bunch of absolute morons who were completely clueless , it wasnt like they were from cuber corporation , they were just a bunch of old uncles who played Omega pretending to be analysing the game mechanics.
Expert one said " like you see in this video , the player here , doesnt actually have his eyes closed , it was open at first , but then the camera angle is such and the player squints his eyes soo much that he appears to have the eyes closed , hahahahaha , he mostly is from country C with those small eyes. Noone can fight monsters with closed eyes guys , thats just ridiculous ".
Expert 2 said " The player using the fire spell, it definitely is the spell called fire wheel , it is a tier one spell that is recently been purchased off the market for 7000 gold coins .... Soo apparently an Elite bought it ".
Expert 3 " i think this entire video is a fan art , a scam ! A conspiracy , look at the ridiculousness , i refuse to beleive it , i am a level 40 player myself , am i a fake gamer then? , ITS A SHAM! ".
A lot of heated discussions ensued on the forums also , but the Elites were now undoubtedly painted in an unfathomable aura . Everyone stopped using commonsense to evaluate the group now , they were a bunch of anamolies banded together.

( Seven guilds alliance meeting , Azure Lotus guild headquarters)
" They actually rejected us? "? Asked the Musicians inc guild leader
" How cocky ! ". RealManchester leader said
" You have not done your mission properly PinkLotus ". Demolitionboys leader said
" What can i do to pursuade someone not willing to be pursuaded? And thats GUILD LEADER PINK LOTUS for you ". Yua glared at demolition boys leader.
" Thats enough fighting guys , what should we do now? Buisness is real bad after the Elites wiped our members off the dungeon , the compensations and overall morale has made us feel a big pinch ". SeaOfPoison guild leader said.
" What can we do , the NPC army is not to be trifled with , and we do not know how many more cards the Elites have ! That guild is just unreasonable , did you see that video? What ridiculous strength ". Original Manchester leader said.
" We cant just have our authority challenged like this , its bad for buisness , the Elites still have a 35 day cooldown on their war counter , i suggest we lay low for those 35 days building strength , and then crush them in a one and done war ".
" 35 days will really put a burden on our finances , we need to keep pressuring the smaller guilds exept the Elites ". Demolitionboys leader argued .
" We cant , theres no telling when Elites band up to kill our party , im not underestimating us , but a party of 500 can easily be wiped by those 50 madmen , if we have more than 1000 troops stationed at a single place , the we become a target of the NPC army , for a party less than 50 members , the adventurers now refuse to give up without a fight , and the casualties have mounted a lot since the fighting broke out ". Musicians Inc leader argued.
" Damn those Elites , how dare they put us in such a pinch ". SeaOfPoison leader was thoroughly underwhelmed by the situation.
When the seven members were fiercely debating the next course of action a system announcement got their attention.
SYSTEM ANNOUNCEMENT : THE SECOND SYSTEM AUCTION WILL TAKE PLACE IN 72 HOURS, REAL WORLD TIME , IT WILL BE A KINGDOM STYLE? AUCTION WITH 40 COMMON ARTIFACTS AND 10 SUPER ARTIFACTS TO BID AT ".
Everyone in the alliance became silent for a while , before wildly discussing about how to raise money for the auction .
Everyone understood after the first system auction , how important was the auction items , just the armour set that the Elite's bought , made them untouchable in the market , gaining massive profits in the market.? Now noone wanted to loose the opportunity to land an important item.

( The True Elites Lifestyle store )
Rudra and Fatty Kalash were sitting in one of the three Elite lifestyle store in the city , today was the launch of a new product line , the advanced mana potion , it was priced at 100 gold coins per bottle , while it costed about 1.5 gold to make , with the overhead of the shop and all , it came to be 3 gold.? The profit they were making were ridiculous , Kalash was nervous about the pricing , but Rudra was very confident .
Ofcourse he was , he knew that it went for 120 gold in his past life , 100 gold was aldready him chopping the price by 25%
Also the level 40 pirate set was added to the display and labelled as coming soon !? To create a buzz.
When they were talking , the new system announcement hit.
" Ooohhhh , what a good time ". Rudra smiled.
He had expected the auction sometime around now , but this just made the timing extremely sweet.
Karna had brought back a crazy amount of dough. And the lifestyle would make a lot in the three days leading up to the auction , Rudra felt very confident.
He thanked his stars that he got hands on the advanced mana potion , as from now till the auction , it was time to grind insane amounts of money.
Rudra gave the shop staff and Fatty Kalash the green signal to go ahead , as a new post promoting the latest product was added to the forums.
/// This an answer to all your summoning calls , consider it a bonus ! We are taking the auction route for now guys , as it was the majority opinion , but the treasure arc would follow! Do not worry, hope you all enjoy! ". ///
