Chapter 218: Overlords of Purplehaze City

In the last few hours of the war the forzern thorns guild were desperately trying to steal the token from Rudra , not that it would change the outcome of the event in anyway as the Elites would win despite not having the token , however they were trying the best to turn the situation around. 

The guild leader of frozen thorns , 'Yeti' and about a group of 100 soldiers confronted Rudra for the token. 

Yeti said "Surrender the token guild master Shakuni , I admire your guild to have progressed soo far and admire you more as a guild leader , you have all my respect , but I need to have that token , I need to win this event , please co-operate and we would not need to kill you, think reasonably guild master , we outnumber you heavily ". 

Rudra smiled as he said " well I'm glad you respect me , however I will not surrender the token , you know I am quite tired of the same thing again and again and again. The Elites are outnumbered , arrogant guys come in ask for us to surrender , we fight back , we kill them , we win. Sigh , when will you all learn from your mistakes , A single Elite is better than a thousand of your players , not just a pitifull 100 ! ". 

Saying soo Rudra sprung into action , he was currently unstoppable , after slaying the dragon and gaining 16 levels at once , nobody was his match at tier one anymore. 

Yeti squinted his eyes , being a tank he braced for impact against Rudra's sword , however to his surprise Rudra did not attack with his sword and kicked the shield he had square with his foot. 

BAM! Yeti was sent flying as he crashed into the soldiers behind him. Rudra dual wielding Excalibur and Elven sword made short work of the surrounding players . 

Rudra was a death god on the battlefield as he absolutely overwhelmed two , three , even six enemy soldiers attacking at once. Within 10 minutes 99 party members had been killed and Yeti stood against him at 1000 HP. 

Yeti's eyes were wide in shock , he had seen the clips , he had heard the rumors about the Elites being able to always overcome the odds. That a single Elite was a army of his own. However he always took it with a grain of salt , he found the very idea ridiculous. However facing Rudra today he really understood , it did not feel like a tier one player fighting Another tier one player , it felt like an adult fighting 100 four year old children , no matter how skilled the children were , they were no Match for the one adult. 

Rudra said coldly " I have no personal grudge against you guild leader , however let this be a reminder to you , never set your sights on MY PURPLEHAZE CITY! ". 

-5000 critical hit! 

Yeti died under Rudra's elven sword! 

With only 30 minutes left till the event ended , and over 200,000 points in lead , Rudra could feel that the victory was in the air! 

He became excited as he slaughtered beasts like a madman , he was absolutely elated and hence his moves flowed more naturally as he broke out singing. 

" I've got fire a heart , I'm not scared of the dark , you've never seen it look soo easy ! ...." 

" Nobody nobody, 

Nobody can DRAG ME DOWN! " 

In his killing spree he gained the remaining 10% exp required to level up as he levelled upto level 73! 

LEVEL UP! 

The event countdown hit 10 seconds 9 ,8....3....2...1

PURPLEHAZE CITY NOTIFICATION: The beast tide is over , the remaining beasts will retreat back into the wild ! 

CONGRATULATIONS to the 'True Elites ' guild to have gained the maximum merit points in this event hence , gaining the management rights to the city! 

Please meet the emperor in the royal palace to take up the official duties in 2 days time! 

The event was officially over and Rudra just sat down on the ground after hearing the notification. Tears were flowing out of his eyes , as he could not believe what he achieved here ..... " WE DID IT! " 

He screamed , he did it! , He came through! 

Winning the management rights to the city was probably the most significant achievement he had made in the game , and not many would understand the actual ramifications of this but Rudra did , the one year peace before the city wars started was the make or break year for every guild all across the game. 

For this one year , he needed to strengthen the guild immensely , he needed to properly develop Purplehaze city into one of the best cities to live in , and prepare his members for the big daddy of all competitions in the world , the VR Olympics.

( Real world , Grey international tower , the upside) 

Mithun Ambani sat across Ethan Grey , tense atmosphere could be felt all across the conference room , as the negotiations seemed to have failed. 

There were many high level officials in the meeting room including government officials from Japan and Pakistan present in the meeting room. 

Ambani said " You have cost me enough damage Ethan , pull out of Pakistan and don't meddle in my buisness anymore , or else the ramifications will not be as simple as me ruining your buisness , it will lead to war between our countries". 

The Japanese officials were a bit worried by this remark , but the Japanese were not pushovers who could be threatened with empty words . 

Ethan glanced at the government official , who nodded in affirmation that the government had his back.

Ethan scoffed as he replied " do as you please Mithun , I will not stop untill I throw you out of your own corporation ". 

Mithun stood up as he said " very well , enjoy your little island country while you can ". He threatened as the holographic projection ended.

Ethan grit his teeth , Ethan had been a hungry wolf ever since he blew up Ambani's oil mine , he had gobbled up businesses previously owned by Ambani , one after the other as he had established a firm foothold inside Pakistan. 

After Ambani's oil field exploded , the oil prices in Pakistan sky rocketed , the country was 100% dependant on the oil field and supplies from Ambani corporation , hence the economy had stagnated following the company's fall , and had almost caused a economic crash!

In such a time Ethan had entered the market becoming a white knight , opening petrol pumps and investing in development projects creating employment. 

Pakistan was a brutally corrupt country , and bribing a few officials here and there , Ethan had his way of getting projects passed by the government. 

However his actions angered Mithun ambani , Mithun was in Pakistan since the last 40 years , and he had a lot of connections in the country, especially in the military. 

Using his influence he planned on strong arming Ethan out of Pakistan , albeit on the threat of a full fledged war.
