Novel Full Chapter 171 - Aftermath
The Elites had won! , Being outnumbered 500 to 1 they still managed to topple the alliance , and this event had shook the entire population playing the game , it was the hottest and most wildly discussed topic worldwide and had taken everybody by storm.
The first and the biggest ramification of loosing the war for the alliance was surrendering 90% of their guilds resources to the True Elites. Along with 100,000 members that would serve the guild for 3 years as war indemnity.
Although the Elites were rich , 90% of the wealth from six first rate guilds was still a huge amount. The guild recieved close to 700 million gold in assets. Although a large part of it was in form of items and precious materials. It was still a huge amount . Rudra after spending money like crazy aquiring lots of properties in the city. Left the guilds finances in a little bit of cashflow crunch. However with this new influx they were again the titans of the city filled with overflowing wealth.
Also , apparently Ethan Grey , happy with the performance of every single Elite , gifted each guild member a sum of 10 million dollars in performance bonus. Spending 5.5 billion in bonuses. The guild members were naturally overjoyed by the income as their impression of Ethan Grey improved immensely.
However Rudra knew that the man had earned a whopping 3.2 trillion dollars this time from the war. 5 billion was not even a drop in the bucket to him .
Ethan Grey was naturally overjoyed by the outcome , as he showered Rudra's house with presents and expensive items. Knowing Rudra he knew that his direct offer for money would be rejected , hence he sent gifts to Mr and Mrs Rajput and little Max , soo that Rudra had no choice but accept it.
After the war , Rudra decided to just spend a good day away from the game and with family , as he hoped to recover from the mental fatigue. However a lot happened in the game in the 15 hours he dint log in.
The forums had erupted , the clips of key scenes of the war had aldready gone viral , some getting even 1 billion views.
Rudra was named as the ' Master Strategist ' and countless experts who analysed the war showered him with praise in devising such ingenious strategy.
There were naturally a lot of hate circulating regarding the alliance , as the world deemed them as trash!
250,000 men could not topple 600? What kind of a joke was that? , Naturally all those who bet money on them winning lost big time.
And those who bet on the Elites struck gold. However those who lost their money had only two places to vent their frustration. One was the forums , where they absolutely slandered the hell out of the alliance and the second was the news and media channels that predicted a confident alliance win.
The expert who had just barely regained his hair , had watched the war with a pale expression on his face ..... When the fort blew up and half of the alliance army was taken along with the explosion , he had a really bad feeling ..... He touched his precious hair , he realized he may not be able to touch it anymore.
He was cowering in his boots when he had to go live , but as he was under the company's contract , he had no choice but to go live. He could not even speak a single word as just as his face popped up , the text channel was ridden with all sorts of profanities and insults.
" WHY DO U STILL HAVE HAIR ? SHAVE IT NOW! ".
" I LOST 2000 DOLLARS BECAUSE OF YOU , I WILL NEVER FORGIVE U BALDIE ".
The live telecast went even more downhill for the expert when the news announcer decided to absolutely humiliate him live.
The announcer asked " Sir , how does it feel to have made such a gross mistake in analysing the True Elites strength? ".
The expert had a dark look on his face , he was furious inside , but he had no words left to refute , the Elites winning was nearly impossible , he was not giving false advices , what the Elite's pulled off was simply out of this world. However such excuses wont work.
He said " Noone could have predicted that the war would progress this way".
The common people became furious , as the insults became even more profane
" THATS WHAT THEY PAY U FOR , BALDIE ".
" WHATS THE POINT OF YOU BEING AN EXPERT , IF YOU CANT PREDICT IT ".
" DIE YOU @#&£&".
The announcer also dint let him off as she asked " Then whats ur credentials as a gaming expert if you cant predict it? , Arent you just a senile old man pretending to be wise?".
The insult destroyed the experts morale , he wanted to weep but tears wouldnt come , he was not wrong in his prediction , however noone was patient enough to understand that , also it was his own fault for underestimating the Elite's. That guild wasnt the average joe, it lived up to its name.
Then on live TV , he was shaved clean off his hair , and even had his eyebrows waxed. The aldready slightly obese man looked like a big potato without any facial hair.
" UGLY POTATO ".
" UGLY BALD POTATO ".
" TRASH AND STALE BALD POTATO ".
" IDIOT BALD POTATO ".
It was safe to say that the expert had the worst day of his life today.
Another event that happened worldwide was that , the True Elites were stopped being classified as a first rate guild or small guild or whatever power level the people associated them with.
They were simply an anamoly in everyone's books , when it came to the Elites , no commonsense applied and there were no rules. Their strength was placed at comparable to first rate guilds , however they were considered a wildcard group.
And many wanted to befriend this group , especially for their technologies! , The Elites lifestyle had caught the eye of everyone worldwide. The presence of the reinforced wall technology to the deadly archballistae's , the pirate ship , the cannons , the wierd alchemic products , the world wanted those secrets.
Everyone wanted to build a trading and working relationship with the Elites. Presents were showered everyday in their guild hall , from guilds even across the continents.
Rudra ignored most of them , but the presents from the super guilds could not be ignored , each being unique and very valuable.
The super guilds had taken notice of the elites. While it wasn't necessarily a bad thing. It wasnt good either , Rudra knew that it was still very premature for him to even think about the super guilds.
However one super guild had been affected greatly by this war , and that was the superguild backed by Mithun Ambani. The reveal of his name and affiliation to the alliance had brewed an unstoppable storm.
The world was hungry for such gossip , Ambani had a huge frown on his face when the assured victory plan of the alliance to crush the Elites failed soo miserably . However little did he know that his bad day was about to get a whole lot worse!
