Two days passed in the blink of an eye as the ti to welco new Elites ca close. The atmosphere in the guild shifted to that of mbers behaving like respectfull senior brothers from cultivation sects.
Everyone wanted to create a strong Impression of themselves as the new batch of Elites arrived. So were even rehearsing what they would say in deep voices.
Rudra chuckled at this atmosphere , it seed as if everyone wanted to convince the newcors of how aweso the guild was.
Rudra was the one who was least affected by the atmosphere.
For him the guilds performance and it's treatnt towards the mbers was the most important . If the treatnt was good and the goals were achieved , the morale would naturally remain high.
The Elites already had a lot of prestige in the Hazelgroove region. He was not worried about the new mbers not being impressed. If anything they should feel blessed to be a part of the guild True Elites. It was a achievent in of itself , that of all the players out there , you are considered a True Elite.
There were a lot of new mbers joining today. Rudra had decided upon this expansion taking into consideration that running a territory was not easy.?To effectively manage the Purplehaze city talented individuals were needed , the existing workforce was pitifully low.
Rudra decided to hold the welcoming ceremony this ti inside the virtual world . Existing mbers lined up at the gate , in guild robes and with their signature grey mount by their side , there were two such rows , both facing each other making a passageway .
The new mbers walked in the guild passing from between the two files , as the existing mbers tried their best to look cool as the juniors passed them.
Clearly it worked , the dignity of the Elites , with the majestic grey direwolf intimidated the new mbers , it gave them a feeling that they had truly joined a big organization.
When the new mbers passed by Skyla , so audibly gulped at her beauty. So were throwing sneaky glances at Naomi , while so glaced at Yua.
At the end of the two lines , stood the Elders , vice guild master Karna and guild master Shakuni. Smiling as they welcod the new mbers.
As soon as the new mbers were accepted formally , their clothes would change into the guild robes , and they would also get the signature grey direwolf mount of the Elites. They were then supposed to join the existing lines and expand it.
By the ti the last mber officially joined , the file had extended to about 200 ters in length.
There were 2100 Elites now. From various fields with various strengths , yet compared to the 570 or so initial Elites. The guild was bustling now.
Rudra asked everyone to move to the guild hall , hence the mounts were recalled and everyone started to move towards the guild hall , excited chatter could be heard everywhere.
The new mbers were extrely happy to get the new mounts , they could not wait to try them . They had never heard of every mber getting a mount of the sa species. When they had heard that all Elites use the sa mount , they assud that they would only ta the grey direwolf from the wild . However , the truth was that every mber upon entry recieved a grey direwolf mount!
They had never heard of any other guild that did this ... How the system allowed it , they had no idea... Was it a special quest? Is it a perk of being in a platinum guild? They had no idea .
Not in their wildest dreams could they have imagined that the reality was that their guild leader had negotiated this feature from the cuber corporation. It was an exclusive feature for the Elites till the ban on bombs was still in place.
The average player levels had risen to level 36, yet they were still a farcry away from the threshold set by cuber corporation for the use of bombs. Rudra knew that very well. Actually in the wars and the quests , levelling was a departnt he had consistently lagged behind on.
Not just him but it was the situation with the entire guild. Neatwit was the only exception , who still focused on levelling up. The guild had once dominated the levelling rankings , holding all the spots one through ten . However now only ten Elites were in the top 100 spots.
Neatwit still held the number one spot at level 54 , and SMG held second place at 52 , followed by Rudra at 51 , Rudra was only there because he levelled up thrice killing the Griffin with Jhonny , Yu and Karna.
The average guild threshold was around level 49 , it was by no ans a low overall level , with the global average being at level 36 they were sufficiently strong , however everyone in the guild was not satisfied with being above average , they were the True Elites!!! They had long resolved that after the conquest for city supremacy was over , they would completely focus on levelling up and getting stronger.
Rudra took the stage as for the first ti he saw a huge crowd three tis the usual size in the guild hall. He smiled as he said " Welco all new family mbers to the guild. I am the guild leader of this small guild , but I prefer to run it as a family . Soo for the new one's here , let give u a brief introduction about the power structure of the guild ..... ". Rudra paused , he looked at new mbers anxious faces . The older one's were barely holding their laughter.
" There is no power structure ..." He said in a low tone and the old mbers bursted laughing , even Rudra started to chuckle.
" There is the vice guild leader Karna , he is an excellent warrior , a great commander and a good friend ".
" There is the elder the talented Assassin SMG , I would not want to be in the shadows if he were the opponent ".
" There is the talented head of Logistics Alia , she is the heart and soul of this guild who bands the guild together , otherwise we would just be a bunch of misfits ".
Alia blushed at the complinnt
" There is the number one player in the level rankings , another terrific warrior , Neatwit , it's a rare treat to see him in the guild hall, soo feast your eyes today . Because , most tis he would be out levelling in the wild , never to be seen in the guild ".
Neatwit awkwardly scratched his nose , it was true , he was seldom seen in the guild.
"There is sir Jhonny English , a gentleman of discipline and a true professional , his skills far surpass even the most talented players in the guild ".
Jhonny just nodded his head in response. He was calm and composed , but secretly he was extrely delighted , he liked the Shakuni kid a lot , he knew how to please the old man.
" There is the bank and the backbone of the guilds economy Sir Fatty Kalash ".
Fatty instantly frowned and glared at Rudra , how dare he introduce him with the fatty tag , this friend of his was in deep sh** now.
Rudra said " All of them are elders , but they are elders to help the guild function better , their spot is earned through respect of the guild mbers and contribution to the guild. Or I have placed faith in them to do so in the future.
There are no strict rules in the guild , mbers are usually free to do whatever they want , there is seldom a guild quest issued , but even that will be optional. You just have to work in a way that you feel is the best for your individual developnt and collective developnt of the guild.
Should u fall , should you fail , then the guild shall have your back . Low finances? No problem the guild has you reimbursed , Bad equipnt , no problem, the warehouse has a stock of the top notch weapons and equipnts?! Problem clearing quests , ask other mbers for help !
Here in the true Elites we only live by one motto , and I hope you all make it your motto too ...".
Saying that Rudra glanced at Karna and motioned for him to take the lead.
Karna was embarrassed , but resolve soon filled his eyes. He cleared his throat as he shouted
" ONE FOR ALL ".
And the entire guild of old mbers joined in
" ALL FOR ONE
GO ELITES GO!!! ".
energy filled the guild hall , even the new mbers could feel the comfort and conviction behind those words . This was not your average guild , everyone here benefited by the guilds amazing system and in turn voluntarily tried their best to contribute to the guild. It was a ideal system . One that everyone wished to achieve but could not. Only because of the unique structure of the True Elites guild was it possible .
Rudra shouted " ONE MORE TI GUYS ,NOW WITH EVERYONE ! ".
He took the lead this ti and the entire guild joined him. Every single mber , at the top of their voice !
" ONE FOR ALL , ALL FOR ONE , GO ELITES GO!! ".
The welco ceremony was over , the new batch had integrated with the old one. The traditional batch 2 photo was clicked of all new recruits and hung on the guild wall alongside the batch one photo .
Rudra looked at the new mbers excitedly chatting with the older one's , talking about Oga , he smiled , he would let the mbers have today for fun , as co tommorow preperations for the city conquest would start at full swing.
/// Sorry for the late bonus chapter for hitting the powerstone target , making it over 1600 instead of the usual 1100 to compensate for the lost ti.
Shoutout to NeroZ for the 500 coin gift!! Thankyou for the patronage! ///
