MMORPG : Rebirth Of The Strongest Guild Master - Chapter 578: Tier 4 promotion test

Rudra was extremely nervous while heading towards the fields of thunder . He knew in his heart that he did not want to choose mediocracy, however should he fail to ascend to tier 4 on his first try , he would loose the opportunity to become a mythic class.

Rudra did not even know that mythic class existed in Omega , or a pathway to obtaining them , as no information regarding such classes was ever made public.

Everyone who stood at the pinnacle of Omega in the second phase of the game before his death , were all the players who managed to get the legendary class at tier 4.

Tier 4 was the real distinguisher between the talented and the ordinary as while people always managed to somehow promote to tier 3 after failing multiple times , tier 4 was not the same.

Only a select few could ever really grasp that tier that distinguished them from mere mortals and everyone who was able to reach that realm was a one man army in their own right , as anyone below tier 4 could never hope to become their match.

The gap between tier 3 and tier 4 was extremely large and hence there was a popular saying in his past life which defined rankers as those whose journey started at tier 4.

There were 240 levels in tier 4 as tier 4 started at level 240 and ended at 480 . Hence the journey from tier 0 to tier 4 was the same as tier 4 to tier 5 , meaning that the majority of a players mature playstyle was decided once they entered tier 4 , as reaching tier 5 would take several years at the least , while the most likely scenario was to never reach it.

Taking the teleportation array to the nearest town , Rudra then splurged 100,000 coins on the fastest Griffin to arrive at the field of desolate thunder.

It was literally a field of thunder for as long as the eye could see and it was covered with dense black clouds and windstorms brewing all over.

Just outside the plains of thunder was a sign board half charred after being struck by lightning multiple times that said " Here starts the plains of thunder . Enter if you donot wish to exit ".

Reading that cheerful comment Rudra prepared to step inside the place as he activated the retractable shield in one hand and in the other grabbed elven sword.

BAM!

Right as Rudra took the first step inside the plain he was met with a bolt of lightning that he blocked with the retractable shield however the impact still made his knees buckle as he realized the grave situation he was in.

A system notification then entered his ears.

[ You have chosen to take the natural tribulation test to ascent to tier 4. Survive the thunderstorm to successfully ascend ... Goodluck ! ]

' F*** ' exclaimed Rudra in his mind as he started to run at full speed trying to cross the plains as fast as he could and reach the valley region , 3 kms away to wether the storm.

Rudra knew that the maximum chances of survival would be to wait out the storm in a cave or under shade , however to reach the valley he needed to cross a 3km long flatland with lush green grass and a terrifying thunderstorm brewing above.

BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM!

6 bolts of lightning struck Rudra in rapid succession as although he blocked the first one using the retractable shield , the second one broke the shield , while the other 4 made direct hit !

-140,000

-140,000

- 470,000 critical hit!

-140,000

Rudra's HP went from bright green to bright yellow instantly as he lost nearly 30% of his overall health , broken his only mode of defence and had not even covered a full 200 meters yet.

' No! No! No! No! No! ' , death became certain in Rudra's mind as he realized how thoroughly underprepared he was to face this challenge and how he might loose his only chance to gain a mythical class.

As another volley of lightning strikes manifested themselves in the air , with only a split second for Rudra to react , he could feel his body too stunned to move as his muscle coordination was shot after all the electric currents running through his body .

Unable to move , unable to evade , Rudra was in a peril .

( Meanwhile fatty)

Fatty was wracking his brains over how to produce ether.

He had already figured out the clay Golem manual and the anti Rhino ballistae , however he could not understand the mysterious fluid ether that powered the handheld cannons.

Rudra's ask was too monstrous from the lifestyle division , and if not for outsourcing individual parts fatty doubted he would have been in a position to even fullfill 10% of the guilds needs even after the entire lifestyle division working all day and all night without breaks for a month straight.

It was just impossible to do in such a limited time , however since the guild needed it anyhow , he did outsorce individual parts with individual blacksmith organization after signing an NDA and offering 3 times the market rate for the job.

This way he spent trillions of dollars worth of gold from the Elite treasury , however nobody bat an eyelid on it.

Amelia on the other hand kept in touch with the spies and spied on dronacharya herself , preparing her report to submit to Rudra , as she also made an announcement under the guilds name on the forums regarding the event Rudra wanted her to draft.

[ The Elite Championship ] : Do you think you are better than the best players of the ruling guild of True Kingdom?

Do you think you are qualified to be called an elite yourself?

Well then this contest is for you to prove your talent and take away 100 billion dollars in gold!

Event details : The entire city of Purplehaze is patrolled by the best elite guards and assassins , monitored by the elder Medivh himself !

Escape the city patrol and ring the bell inside the Purplehaze city church at the inner district of the city .

Register now open!

Registration fees : COMPLETELY FREE !

Minimum tier requirement : Tier 1 or above

Minimum level requirement : level 50

Event date : 30 May ( 43 days from now)

°°°°°

The forums exploded once the event was declared as the pricepool looked utterly ridiculous to the common people who wanted nothing more than to grasp this opportunity to stardom.

Not only did over 10 million people apply for the event day one , the Free registration made just about anyone who was even remotely considering to enter register for the event as even if they did not show up they would loose nothing

While the world praised the Elite generosity and praised their talent scouting process , as they misunderstood the whole fiasco as the elites using big money to recruit a wave of deserving candidates.

Only Amelia knew that if they took any money from the people they would have to go through the event anyhow even after the war , with no room for backing out without facing public backlash.

This way even if the event did not take place finally , nobody had the right to complain as nobody had invested a dime.

However most importantly , the event gave the elites a cover for performing citywide modifications with the world watching , as now their actions of setting up barricades and moving equipment from one place to another seemed normal.

Although dronacharya had a funny feeling in his gut when he read the announcement as he knew that under all this BS , Rudra's real motive must be something else , however he did not think that Rudra knew about the calamity that was coming his way and hence did not connect it with the upcoming war.

Snickering in his mind at how the elites would never get to host this event , dronacharya just put it at the back of his mind as there were other important things to focus on , the most important being the upcoming war and the ancient ruins exploration mission that was still pending.

Dronacharya badly wanted the ancient weapon blueprints of the handheld cannon , as that weapon transformed the tier 1 guild into a superpower , with them becoming the number 1 guild in the entire nothern continent in Parallax's past life with even the elites falling prey to their expansion.

This was why the ancient ruin exploration was extremely important to dronacharya as the contents inside were game changing . However little did he know that not only had Rudra successfully raided his dear ruins , but Fatty had already started working on how to produce the ancient weapon.

While the blood merchants definitely had a huge advantage , things were not going to go as smoothly as dronacharya expected , as the elites had sniffed out their plan and they were preparing as best as they could for the eventual clash!
