Rudra thought he was smart enough to figure out the algorithm of the lucky spin thing. He had a hunch that it was the reverse luck meter and that extremely unlucky guys should spin it to get the best rewards. However , just to be sure he handed the first spin to Karna to wait and see what the chosen son of heaven got.
Karna had intense pressure visible on his face as he looked at the rewards wheel. The prices had improved in quality with 4 semi legendary items now and 4 empty slots too, while the other prices being improved in grade.
Karna spun the wheel , and everyone in the guild looked expectantly , except Jhonny who had his eyes closed. He believed that even his sight was enough to curse the spin , hence he did not want to risk it by looking at the wheel.
The needle moved towards a blank spot , and everyone's moods darkened , but slowly it slid towards the semi legendary item beside it , before finally stopping barely inside the semi legendary item line by a hairs breath!
Cheers rang inside the Elite camp , as after all this struggle there was a payoff to this event , as they got a semi legendary item!
[ Arcane Arts , Fire Palm ] ( Ancient ) : An lost spe technique practiced in the arcane times when man fought against dragons for supremacy of lands .
A ruthless palm of flames capable of obliterating an enemy , rivalling the strength of a dragon's breath , meant to even penetrate through the thick scales of dragons.
Restrictions : Mage class only
Cooldown time : 3 hours
It was an OP lost fire art!
the hearts of guild members palpitated at the sight of this item , as there was not a single wizard in the guild who did not want it. This was a lost art that would mostly be their unique move as it is clearly unavailable in the free market.
noone wanted to pass on this thing. However everyone waited for Rudra's judgement on how to use this thing , but Rudra himself was contemplating on how the hell did the needle land on the semi legendary item with Karna's spin .
It was supposed to come out empty. His conjecture made no sense now , and he was unable to understand why Jhonny came up empty 5 times if this was the case?
Just when Rudra was about to ask Jhonny something , he was interrupted by Medivh who said " What to do with the item guild leader "and broke Rudra's train of thought.
Rudra looked at the guild members and saw the expectant stares of the mages present and immediately knew that he had to make a roll for this item to avoid conflict.
Rudra soo wanted to give it to medivh , as giving it to greenhorns was a waste of the skill , yet looking at the atmosphere he knew that any bias shown here would lead to friction within the guild , and seen as him favouring the elders . hence Rudra decided that the cohesiveness of the guild was more important than the item , hence he would let open roll for it.
Only mage class members were allowed to roll hence the rest waited and watched on as the mage class members rolled one by one.
Luckily , Medivh did roll 93 the highest amongst everyone and the item did fall to him in the end , however now Rudra did not show any bias and everyone was content as they could only blame their luck and not a lack of opportunity for this outcome.
Everyone was hence Happy , and the party moved onto the next roll , which Karna was happy to do.
Under intense gazes , karna sweated as he spun the wheel again and landed the pointer at another semi legendary item much to the joy of the crowd.
It was the arcane spell Water Palm , which went to a mage as well.
finally the third spin was also a semi legendary item , which was a semi legendary sword called EarthShaker. A great sword of peak calliber and amazing innate skills.
It was the perfect upgrade for Karna , yet he insisted to roll for it fairly to give everyone covering the item a chance. however out of respect for the vice guild master , not a single person came forward to have the roll , hence it automatically went to Karna.
The guild was like a family this way , and greed amongst members was limited. The individuals were happy to see the guild progress as a whole compared to their individual progress.
The guild moved onto stage three . A stage not yet properly explored by any party, as most came in with extremely thin numbers and without exception failed to pass through this one. Labelled the stage 'Death stage ' it was sure to be a challenge for the elites.
This stage was modelled after a mobile game called ' Temple Run '.

( Meanwhile in China )
The triads were having the toughest time since their inception after loosing pathetically to the Elites in the war.
Hao Mi had completely avoided public eye as she had lost confidence from her subordinates who were now vying for her life and the post of the new mafia lord.
However , Hao Mi was not weak of defenceless. If anything she was cruel and merciless , as rivers of blood flowed , as the rebels were swiftly massacred.
However even then , she had pressure mentaining her businesses and power , as not everything could be solved by bloodshed , as people who she had initially supressed were no longer complacent to her as her foundation of power was rattled.
The hate that she had for the elites and Ethan Grey had blackened her heart completely . However unlike what was popular belief , she was not done with them yet.
Hao Mi might have power issues mentaining control over her own faction , but in her trying times a hand of friendship had been extended to her , a hand of someone soo powerful that it would change her current scenario in an instant should she take it.
The power was also interested in bringing the elites down , but unlike her who rushed in blindly to take her revenge . He actually overestimated the elites almost as if he was aware of everything they achieved and everything they were to achieve in the future.
Preparing a fleet of long range boulder throwing machines , that could literally punch a hole in any walls it came in contact with , the proceed to destroy half a town , a weapon soo devastating that having a walk or not having one would mean the same infront of it and this man had 50 of them.
Even then , he was cautious of the wall the elites built , not because his weapons could not pierce it but because even with levelling the walls he was not sure of victory.
If Hao Mi had 1 million strong army that raided the Elites . This man had 10 million , even then he hesitated as he was not certain to defeat the group with 10 million .
From top tier spells to a never seen before aerial mount legion , this man had it all , yet was waiting for the right time and building even more strength in the shadows before even putting his neck above surface.
Not because he could not ... But because he was that cautious of a man. It was only after meeting him , that Hao Mi understood how naive she was in planning things and how sure one actually needed to be to pick a fight.
However the overly cautious and calculating nature of the man scared her. She felt that she loosing the war and eventually joining hands with him was also a part of the plan he already calculated months ago and that scared her.
What kind of a monster was she getting in bed with?
But he seemed to hate the Elites even more than she did , even his name a natural adversary of the guild leader of the Elites's ' Shakuni ' as the man called himself ' Dronacharya '!
The man had been plotting the downfall of the elites for a long time , having a total of 7 first rate guilds under his control , cultivating a crop of ultimate players , not in the public eye , as his purpose and cautiousness knew no bounds.
