Chapter 617 Regroup
The last 20 minutes of the day 2 war were the worst for the elites , two giant’s running amok in their city it took hundereds of thousands of soldiers to floor the two.The problem with the giants was that their skin was simply too thick , making their defenses incredibly high. Unless one could pierce a tower through their gut , nothing else seemed to do tangible enough damage.
However even after the giants were killed , the city was not in a good shape whatsoever , as at the time that the war horns sounded and fighting for day 2 was declared to be over , the elites had sectors 5 through 7 on the western end of the city , completely up in flames.

( The world news )
’ SHOCK ! , THE PURPLEHAZE CITY WALL IS BREACHED , CITY UP IN FLAMES ‘.
’ BREAKING NEWS ! GIANTS RUN AMOK IN PURPLEHAZE CITY ! ‘.
’ IS THIS THE END OF THE REIGN OF THE ELITES? ‘.
Many juicy cover story titles were produced by media companies to draw as many viewers as they could as the elites were berated on the analysis shows.
Gaming Pundits and professional gamers were all sitting in a panel trying to analyse the war inside the True Elites Kingdom and tried to find fault within the Elite strategy.
Pausing from clips of war , they would blabber on about how the elites did not take the correct formation to produce maximum damage , or how they were sloppy in their attack .
When seen on a screen , things like tier of a soldier and the momentum of the battle were impossible to analyse . Hence the analysis of the pundits was complete bull**** , as they looked towards the things in a 2D format.
Their analysis was not wrong as to what battle tactics to chose , but it was all under the premise of ( ‘ If all soldiers are equal ‘ ) and did not focus on the fact that the tier 2 soldiers of the elites were taking on the tier 3 forces of the enemies.
The news channel analysts conveniently let such a critical detail slide , and fooled millions watching worldwide into beleiving the elites just adopted poor strategy.
The elites had created miracles after miracles after miracles time and time again in Omega , and rose to become one of the most notorious guilds across the entire continent.
However this meteoric rise had everyone feel jealous of their success , as even those who supported the elites on the surface , wanted them to face a massive defeat to bring their ego down a peg!
Such was the mentality of the world , as most people were like crabs who would drag others down , instead of climbing up themselves.
A poll on one of the news channels asked the viewers on if they thought the elites could make a comeback and win the war , and 97% of them voted on ‘ No ‘ , showing that almost nobody had hopes of an elite victory.
With the Purplehaze city wall breached , and the enemies having a large force at their disposal , the chances of victory looked grim for the elites hence those who were critical of them making a comeback were not wrong in their assumptions.
For the merchants to end the war , they must infiltrate the royal palace and claim the throne of True Elites Kingdom , for the system to end this fight.
Initially it was Dronacharya who would be lined up for this role , however with him being put inside the gallows now one of the blood merchants planned on ruling the country .
According to Scar-face an open front for their buisness and a dark faction nation right at the heart of the nothern continent was not a bad thing for the blood merchants at all , hence he was all for coronating a king from amongst themselves , however the priority remained to get the other pages of the demons diary.

( Meanwhile Rudra )
Rudra thought about his past timeline , and how facing the blood merchant army was the end of the game’s main storyline .
A total of 1207 guilds had collaborated in that massive war and still it raged on for days before the playerbase only winning through a high numbers advantage.
Yet now the elites faced the merchants alone and with a numbers disadvantage at that.
Rudra’s initial plan was to hold onto the Purplehaze city wall for yet another day and shrink down the enemy force size to under 15 million troops , before retreating back into the city.
It was on the basis of this plan that he had the confidence of 30% to win the war , however now that the wall was breached on day 2 with the enemy still having over 21 million soldiers to spare , the chances of victory dropped down significantly.
Rudra’s mind started to work at full capacity , as he scheduled an emergency meeting for the elite elders to discuss further strategy.
The morale amongst the remaining forces was at an all time low , as with the wall crumbling down the beleif that the elites could clutch this victory crumbled down as well.
The city was up in flames and an intense firefight was raging across sectors 5-7 where the fighting had taken its toll.
Seeing these visuals , even the soldiers that had fought in other Battlefronts felt their morale plunging as their efforts were in vain.
The Western front had collapsed , but the fall of even a single front meant that the city had been breached.
As Rudra looked at the assembled elders infront of himself he could see the defeated expression on their faces as if the war was already lost.
Especially on the face of sir Jhonny who was the incharge of the Western front as he looked devastated by his facials.
Looking at the defeated faces of his most trusted men , Rudra felt a pinch in his heart as well. But while every other elder was present in the meeting , Fatty Kalash was notably absent.
