Chapter 654 Rise Of A relegion
??In the next 7 days Rudra managed to recruit a total of 942,000 followers and was very close to hitting the 1 million followers mark for his church.??Apparently for 7 straight days the line outside the church of death had been unbelievable as close to 200,000 NPC and 600,000 players and 142,000 elite guild members had converted to the relegion.
??Rudra made Medivh , Jhonny , Neatwit and SMG the four Cardinals of his church while Karna was the arch-bishop.
??At this point in time Rudra trusted nobody outside his guild members to hold any important office in the church as he himself was exploring and learning about his own powers and influence.
??Apparently he was the only one in the church that held and office and did not get any system missions to perform on a day to day basis.
??Everyone else including Karna were supposed to do some mission or other under the banner of the church.
??Apparently Rudra could himself also issue the church's quests and every single beleiver would get a system prompt to help the pope of death.
??It was an incredible feeling as for the first time Rudra held power capable enough to topple kingdoms at whom as he realised the true potential of starting a relegion.
??Not only could he hold and try criminals , he could officially issue bounty on enemies of church of death and millions of players worldwide would become his eyes and ears and executioners on the mission.
??The church had recieved a total of 27 million gold coins in just the first 7 days of operations and at this rate Rudra realised that the church of death would become a cashflow positive organization.
??Not only could he buy expensive stuff with the donation money and expand the treasury , but he could also use the money as monetary rewards to do quests.
??It was estimated by mathamarical experts that even if he could withdraw 10% of the monthly income from the church then the cost of construction would be offset in only 1.2 years time.
??All of this felt surreal to Rudra as he was close to achieving the first landmark of the game by hitting the 1 million beleivers mark and the award associated with it was just astronomical.
??Gaining levels after hitting level 280 required massive amounts of EXP and even players like Neatwit who spent 70% of their time levelling , would take atleast 5-7 months to gain those 40 levels. However Rudra was about to make that in a week , all because of starting a relegion.
??Rudra knew that although the success of the event was incredible at the moment , to make the relegion more practical he needed to make churches and appoint priests at every major town in his country and then later on expand to neighbouring countries as well.
??A church on only one location wasn't good enough , but with the city reconstruction and the already expensive church of death yet to return profits , the elites could not afford to go on yet another spending spree casually.
??Although the elites lifestyle guild was now an international brand with stores in 121 cities across 12 kingdoms raking in Incredible amounts of monthly profits , it was still not enough to sustain the guilds high expenditure.
??Rudra had bet everything on development and economical stimulus packages as the tax rate was one of the lowest in the true Elite kingdom and the public facilities were one of the best , making the kingdom one of the best places to live on the entire continent.
??Not only did this result in a high immigration rate and a ever expanding workforce and industry. It also incentivised small and large scale industries to set base in the country.
??Although this put a lot of strain on the elites treasury , in the long run this would undoubtedly make them one of the most economically stable countries in the continent.
??Hence for now Rudra had 2 major plans to implement as soon as possible .
??1) Reach the 1 million goal and look at the next target and work towards reaching it to expand the church of death and get lucrative rewards.
??2) Plan a robbery on the treasury of the church of light in the holy city to retrieve the book cover of the demons diary.
??Rudra could absolutely not pass on the opportunity to get his hands on the book cover of the demons diary now that he knew where it was
??Although the plan was very risky to perform and should the elites be implicated in orchestrating such an operation it would put unbelievable strain on the relationship between Rudra and the pope , however Rudra could not pass on it either.
??He needed to be extremely careful as to how he planned the robbery and needed to get in and out without the church ever realising that an object had been stolen from the inside.
??Naturally , there was only one man in this world who Rudra could trust with this incredible difficult mission and it was none other than the greatest mercenary on the entirety of earth , Jhonny English!
??Compiling a team of the Elites's best assassin/ spies . Rudra gave the mission of stealing the book cover from the internal treasury of the holy city to the team of Skyla , Bo , SMG led by sir Jhonny English.
??Rudra repeatedly stressed on the importance of the mission and how no lose ends could be left , only when Jhonny assured him that it would be done did he relax.
??Little did he know that he had literally chosen the worst man to do the most important job as things would never go remotely as planned with Jhonny English and his rotten luck present on the scene.
??**********
??( Meanwhile Dronacharya )
??The demonic necromancer decided to restrain dronacharya and not kill him once he revealed his association to Lucifer. However , dronacharya was still stabbed with 11 bone arrows and a slight sword cut before the necromancer yelled stop as those attacks had already been launched.
??In a lot of pain and a red HP bar , dronacharya was completely at the mercy of the necromancer and his whim as now his very life was in the hands of this man.
??Far from the light faction territory , should he die in the dark faction land he would not only lose a lot of exp , but would also drop some valuable items for sure which would be an expense that he could not afford at the moment.
??He needed to make sure that no such untoward situation occured and use his glib tongue to get out of this jam.
??Initially dronacharya planned to do the exact same thing to the necromancer. Sneakily attack him and then restrain him for a round of questioning , but a winged demon appeared out of nowhere and ruined all his plans.
??The winged demon was too powerful , dronacharya felt pressured in fighting it and by the looks of things it was a loyal servant of the necromancer which confirmed the rumors that the man had something to do with the demons and Lucifer.
??" Speak filthy beniogre beleiver why should I not kill you at this very moment and allow you to live another day?
??You say Lucifer sent you , but I don't beleive you .... If th next words out of your mouth are a lie , i will torture you bone by bone until i break all 206 in your body! ". The necromancer said menacingly as dronacharya gulped a mouthful of saliva.
??He knew he needed to be very careful with his next words , but being the premium ass kisser that he was, it was one of his strong points.
??Dronacharya said " O great eminance the lord of the undead , the prestigious necromancer , the game of beniogre , please donot misunderstand this mice like being infront of you , for i am but a humble servant.
??My lord , my ONLY lord , Lucifer had entrusted a job to rhe blood merchant organization to retrieve an important object for him , but they failed miserably.
??I am a survivor of that great war and one of the few of the mentality and the guts to try again and succeed for our lord.
??The object is called the Demons diary and it has 7 pages and one book cover.
??I have information that a follower of the death God Hades , has obtained all 7 pages and is now looking for the book cover.
??Should he succeed , he would give that diary to the god Hades and it would be counterproductive to our lord , Lucifer's wishes hence I beg you good sir please give me a chance to explain and hear me out ".
??Dronacharya's glib tongue made the necromancer pause for a second as he whispered something into the ears of his demon assistant as the two chatted in private for a long time .
??The longer they chatted the more uneasy dronacharya became however with being restrained he had no other option but to wait for his verdict.
??When the necromancer started to untie him , dronacharya breathed a sigh of relief but it was soon changed into a gulp of despair as the necromancer said.
??" I donot follow Lucifer , he is not my god but i also absolutely hate god of death Hades. I work for noone but myself , but my slave here tells me that the demon's diary is a very useful object for my goals , hence i will obtain it for myself and YOU will help me do it! ". The necromancer said with cold eyes as dronacharya realised that he had f***** up once more.
