Chapter 203 - Start of the event
Rudra woke up refreshed , he was shocked to see a coffee and a note beside him as he woke up. He did not know who wrote the note but whoever it was had beautiful handwriting. Rudra smiled , he was feeling upbeat because of this small gesture.
He went down the Grey tower elevator and out of the tower , as everyone from the staff politely bowed and greeted him. It was no secret by this point that Rudra was a bigshot in Omega and quite close to the boss Ethan Grey , everyone wanted to be in his good books.
Rudra had a chauffeur waiting on him , to take him back home , but since it was only 1km away , Rudra decided to take a quick jog to freshen himself up.
Rudra did light stretches as he jogged towards his house. Feeling energized and positive about the coming event. He knew he had to be at his best , he had good odds of winning , it was not as hopeless as the war against the alliance , as he was actually strategically prepared. However his victory was far from set in stone.
Rudra went home , quickly greeted his mom and dad , and gave little Max a hug. As he went into his room and into the virtual world.
He saw the familiar graphic of Welcome to Omega , before he was teleported back inside his guild hall in Purplehaze city.
--------------
( True Elites guild hall , Purplehaze city , Subjugation of beasts special event )
The atmosphere inside the guild had taken a sharp turn , only three hours remained untill the event started , and members were starting to deploy to their respective posts in respective districts.
The medical team had already dispatched , while the lifestyle guild had completed the task of ensuring that appropriate supplies were distributed and the archballistae were correctly mounted.
The members inside the guild were now covered in full combat gear , contrast to the usual guild robes , as everyone seemed pumped for battle.
SMG and Jhonny nodded towards Rudra as they took their leave. Followed by the 300 assasins , who were ready to start the intel relay going.
Neatwit , covered in full armour also took his leave , as he with the other 800 Elites went towards their assigned districts. Neatwit had already organized them in smaller groups according to their classes to create a mini balanced unit.
Legolas and Gimli had apparently already gone to their respective districts , as only a nominal amount of troops could be seen in the guild headquarters.
There were about 100 elves that stayed in the guild HQ that were there to only ensure the safety of Princess Ruby. And from the 6000 won knight troops under him ,he assigned 200 more to the guild headquarters for additional safety and also stationed two elite members to relay information incase of emergency.
Karna came in jogging , covered in full battle armor and greeted Rudra. Rudra patted him on the back , Rudra knew that Karna would be under heavy pressure today. However he trusted his friend.
Yume was also with the group , as he was in his usual monk clothes , he bowed and did a polite namaste to the other two members.
Yume was going to be the game changer today. Rudra knew it , his safety was of the utmost priority.
Rudra asked Karna " how do you feel? ".
Karna replied " Pretty good , I am fighting with guild leader Shakuni of the True Elites , victory is assured ".
Rudra smiled , embarrassed. But he did not refute his words. Instead with determination he said " Yes , we will win! , We must win ! ".
The countdown hit to 5seconds ...4...3....2...1
SYSTEM ANNOUNCEMENT : Beast subjugation event under progress , time left 48:00 hours , Respawn will be unavailable for the duration of the event. Incase you die you will be unable to login untill the event is over
Good luck adventurers !
Many were shocked to see this announcement , what do you mean respawn will be unavailable? It was not mentioned in the event description before!!
Some guilds were taken aback , they had not prepared for such a scenario , they had asked the members to go all out , if they die they would compensate them for every death. They only needed to kill as much as they can.
But now with this restriction they needed urgent change of plans.
Our reincarnator long since knew about this , hence he was not worried , most of his forces were NPC troops who did not have a Respawn option. Hence they would only fight like their life depended on it.
Sometimes Rudra felt as if , was the reason that the NPC were better than the players because they fought as if they had only one life?
Did giving respawn to players make them complacent? .
However his line of thoughts were broken as a screeching cry entered his ears. A wyvern flock had appeared in the skies of Purplehaze city.
The event had started , the merits gained counter was up , showing a 0 sign infront of all guilds.
The fight for supremacy of Purplehaze city started now!
Rudra nodded towards Karna and the 500 elites and 5800 won knight infantry soldiers rolled out of the guild.
The inner city was defended by high walls and had military soldiers patrolling them. It was the place with the highest protection , but also the place where most fighting was going to take place.
Emperor Aman was a necromancer , if Rudra's memory served right , he would only come out towards the very end of the event , when 'That creature ' appeared.
There was still a lot of time till that creature came however , the current objective of the guild was to assist the military and slay as many beasts as possible.
Rudra's objective was to gain the 100,000 merit points token right from the start, and it shined brightly around the neck of the wizard he was all to familiar with , the right hand man of emperor Aman , Rahim!
