Chapter 693 A tough 3 months
After Rudra explained to the elites how a war was about to take over the world , everyone felt a bit depressed and overwhelmed by the situation , but under such circumstances it was a blessing that all the elites lived in the same locality and under fortified walls as a fraternity was created between them all which led to a positive cycle of hardwork.Nobody wanted to slack anymore and from the moment Rudra put out the training regime , everyone followed it to a T as they cut down on any and every distraction in life.
Rudra shared everything that he could share about becoming a cultivator understanding mana veins in one's body and how in-game move practice could be replicated in real world , and also hand-crafted a regime for training that would benefit the elites physical fitness while also push them closer to understanding mana and learn how to control it.
Inside Omega everyone had a single goal which was to level up and level up fast , as everyone was more or less divided into groups of 4 or 5 that kept raiding lucrative dungeons and high density monster spawn camps for effective levelling.
The same went for the lifestyle division , as Rudra made it mandatory for them to tag along with the assault groups to level up faster , as levelling up through crafting was much slower than levelling up through killing monsters.
The lifestyle division also closed all production of excess goods like potions and the like , as Rudra shut down the buisness from across all kingdoms and only internal guild demands were fulfilled.
The lifestyle division only produced bombs and other equipment necessary for faster levelling while their work shift was halved.
For half the day they would go level with the assaulters while playing support , and the other half would be spent crafting essential items only.
There was a lot of public outrage because of the new supply chain crisis of cheap potions , as the elites had monopolized the market with their cheap rates and high quality products and them pulling out made a huge hole in the economy.
However Rudra did not care about others , although he understood that potions were necessary for adventurer parties to level up for long durations , for him the priority was his own guild.
The lifestyle division was already working to its limit and he was not going to sacrifice their chances of survival in the new world by making them work for extra hours and lose out on levelling up.
The lifestyle players were extremely grateful for this , the assaulters carried them in the level raids and shared exp , otherwise most lifestyle players across the world in other guilds were left stranded , but the elites were a tightly knit community.
This was mostly because of Rudra's own personal ideals that the lifestyle division got equal importance , as for him his people came before other people even if the entire humanity suffered the same fate at the moment.
More and more people wanted to join the elites however Rudra was adamant about not taking any more people in , as he did not give into any social media pressure or news channel protests calling him a tyrant , as even if the others willing to join were from Japan , he was not opening the gates of the upside for anyone at all.
Ethan Grey's power levelling started as he was paired with Neatwit himself , gaining 120 levels in a matter of one week , breaking the record for the faster growth ever.
However he reached a bottleneck at the tier 3 promotion quest as without the elite skills of a gamer it was impossible to go past this level even with a D rating.
Unless he learnt a lot of skills and started using them effectively it would take him a lot of difficulty to move further , hence he was left to train with the other elites in mastering new moves until he could clear the test.
Finally , Ethan's scheme of power levelling brought in a lot of rich friends from across the world who managed to inturn bring a lot of people to join the church of death , as Rudra through steady marketting as a cult that looked after each other , managed to poach a lot of devotees after making them beleive that in the new coming world the church of death would be a community that would protect each other at all costs.
He managed to gather 20 million followers in 3 months time across the nationwide church of deaths , as his staff now expanded to countless paladins and bishops while having 4 church Cardinals.
The rewards went on for everyone and not just Rudra , as even the lower tier management like paladins and bishops got a lot of system quests that yielded a lot of great rewards too.
This resulted in them actively working hard for the church and the reputation of the church hence increased as a result , with everyone liking the player managed churches.
The hype surrounding the church of death was artificially inflated by the grey international corporation as Rudra burnt his real world cash reserves in trillions to get paid artists and conmen to create a hype by narrating unreal events that happened when one joined the church of death.
The way Rudra painted the picture was that when others bullied solo players that had nowhere to go , other fellow church members would show up every single time and take the fight to the offenders , making a cult of tightknit family who always had each other's back.
Even the slogans of the church started to become stuff like ' You shall never walk alone '.
Or ' Death never betrays '.
As during the dark times for humans as a race , the comfort that such a group provided drew more and more people every single day .
At this rate Rudra expected to be able to barely meet the deadline before the 1 year timeline he set so that he could complete the church's quests as in between he completely shifted his focus to mastering all the moves he had.
Rudra had a schedule where he would practice 2 normal moves for 1 week until mastery and take 1 special move / class specific move as the third move that was practiced for an entire month until mastery.
At this rate in one year Rudra would be able to master all his moves and his combat efficiency would return to peak , as the same moves that he mastered online in Omega he practiced offline in real life too.
Rudra was able to recreate moves like overhead slash , windslash , darkness bind and darkness blast and the other simpler moves in real life.
However moves like blink could not be performed as while he masterd them in-game , he was sapped of all mana in his body when he tried to do it real life before he could even activate the move.
Rudra understood that his mana capacity was not enough to perform moves that defied the laws of physics and hence focused on the moves that he could perform.
He did not have a suitable sword IRL , and the ones he bought broke very often under the stress of his attacks , and even swords forged from pure titanium or even pure diamonds could not bear the strain of Rudra's attacks.
Things got so difficult for him that he had to use swords made out of materials that were used in satellites. However even space grade products broke after a few uses as Rudra understood that unless he could find in-game materials like mythril , the real world swords would not be able to support his strength.
Within 3 months through sheer determination , all of the elite elders managed to break into tier 4 and become cultivators , while 12,000 other members also became cultivators.
Once they became cultivators , everyone's bodies changed like Rudra and cuber corp became a daily visitor to the upside as they brought new and new cultivator pods for the ascended.
Little by little those who had ascended started to train in real world moves as by this point , just as Rudra predicted the world started to fall into utter chaos , as public order worsened everyday with normal humans gaining the ability to combat armed military through moves learnt in Omega.
There was no question about it in Rudra's mind , humanity was going to become a jungle where the law of survival of the fittest would apply and once more after a full century of peace , humans would start to fight amongst themselves as society would regress into primordial era.
Nonetheless , while he focused on playing Omega seriously , his family planned his wedding IRL on one side while the kingdom of vanaheim planned his wedding with Ruby on the other.
