Chapter 78: The general strat

SKY Ocean Hunter is sitting in a field of player loot bags. The swarm of low level poorly coordinated players was not even a proper test. SKY Ocean Hunter is a general of many battles in his own right much like Tyr and Styx. Even now his term members are people who he picked not because they are strong fighters rather every member bar Lux is a commander of at least two games. He is building Sunken Reef  CHapter to be filled with Officers as opposed to just strong players. By leveraging their old game profiles he has already attracted two past friends from Stellar Empires. 

Ori, Calypso and Alistar are all strong-willed capable commanders each of them has proven to be extremely loyal so long as SKY Ocean Hunter holds up his end of the deal. John Baptist is already securing real friends in the real world. He spent a few on the extrasolarnet to find a merit system. He has edited it to match his needs and sent it around to his old friends. John Baptist was convinced by Sihle during his initial outline of how he plans to have them rise the ranks. Sihle thou tends to get bogged down in details this great especially since John Baptist can send him to do mission improbable type stuff and trust him to succeed. Raul is great at the dark side of politics but tends to be a bit heavy-handed. While people might fault him for being honest the image has cultivated for himself has set him apart from others.

Where Sihle and Raul poke prode and investigate lJohn can trust in the fact each of the people he is bringing is somewhat known to him. His image has allowed over many years to cultivate a lasting impression of what it is like to deal with him.  Best of all Lux is amazing her constant vigilance add a much-needed dimension to his authority. Even now only after less than a day, she commands most of the guild with ease. Without her and Frey coordinating with Medium Bunz, they would have to run and control the New players themselves. Lux is especially skilled at remote operations. SKY Ocean Hunter has taken ideas from her to sure up his faults. While he is not convinced everyone is an enemy he has become more discerning. 

Everything is still new but he feels that already they have forged something. They have never done before the feeling of the certainty of how everyone moves out is especially refreshing. He knows Nineth Immortal, Tatiana and Frey and Lux have their own agendas. He doesn’t mind something you can’t fake is earnestly and they have plenty of that to go around for the most part. It’s way even though everything is fresh he is already putting more effort than he ever has before. His biggest headache right now is how to respond to Medium Bunz. 

Mint is much more dangerous than she believes having existed since before the Shattering they wield an ungodly amount of power. The invitation he got he from Mint being the nineteenth guild to form. Already speaks volumes as he is not sure how they tracked him down. As NPC faction they don’t receive the same notices as players and yet in less than an hour after receiving he received an invitation to Mint. The current pool of players who are in the guild has access to anything they find out. It’s a trap set up Lux. Each copy of any information has a randomiser attached to it that changes certain keywords with synonyms. This will allow her to start putting tabs on potentially dangerous players. HEr and Styx were particularly pleased with themselves when they came up since it’s so mundane it isn’t filtered by corporate protection. 

SKY Ocean HUnter knows that the biggest threat to their guild is other people. Every Cantos Industries game is marred by real-life indecent because of their games. Yet the element to make real money and fame is beyond alluring. SKY Ocean Hunter can tell by the naming convention that Cantos has to meet its goal and proceeded forward. The name of beta and final realise tend towards something. He knows that any clue he can figure out is important. 

Alistar approaches him wearing his Dark Magician robes, his scar the most distinctive feature on his face. He is flanked by the Rancher Ori who immediately says, “Boss I know we are good but the others?” Ori is going over incident reports all the time. As a real-life military staff sergeant overall group cohesion and morale is one of his focuses. While he would prefer a hands-on approach since he is getting familiar with the game he will follow SKY Ocean Hunters Lead. For a bunch of kids, they have really impressed him. Being able to organise is one of the biggest barriers any power can face however they are doing it really well. The constant influx of new players is pretty impressive. Though even the smallest guilds on Mars only start to be recognized when their player’s number upwards of twenty thousand. 

SKY Ocean Hunter waves off a figure who vanishes into the void facing the rest of the team he says, “It doesn’t matter right now, the experience is most important. The early game is a massive learning experience being able to forge some players now will only make us stronger. Levels can always be regained Ori, you of all people have mastered Hamlicar methods.” Ori rubs his pets head a murmur of pleasure comes from the Rancehrs’ Booner. Its stunning black fur is even more alive as its whole body vibrates. 

Alistar says, ‘That’s beside the point the only we can capitalise is by letting everyone in right now we don’t have assets that valuable. SO we will make manpower our asset its why the boss is so strict about the newbies doing the dungeons. Lucky for us he out in his letter to us otherwise we would have to do them right now like Meerin.” ORi shivers for a second he doesn’t have a good impression of her as he was on the opposite side in the last game he suffered many defeats to SKY Ocean HUnter and the Madd Meerin. She would be pretty cute in his eye if for the fact that she calls all men boys in a weird southern accent that makes his skin crawl for one. 

Ori says, “So what now are we just going to hang around here forever?” SKY Ocean Hunter obviously got a message ago. Which has stalled their progress SKY Ocean Hunter and Lux only shared a look before she vanished. That blood Elf gives him the hibbie jibbies her demeanour reminds him of some veterans in the force. Even the way she answers his question is too similar to someone who is controlling their thoughts. 

Alistar says, “yeah boss what the plan with only three of us here there is not much we can do.” Alistar is reading up on his advanced class any chance he gets. being A dark Magician means that the official forum is more detailed for him about the class. A wicked grumble comes from SKY Ocean Hunter.

SKY Ocean Hunter says, ” We are a three-man team, It’s a good chance to experience some of what the newbies are going through. Plus I can’t be caught up in anything too serious Medium Bunz has started her plan and I just told her to carry on as she sees fit. While I’m confident about our ability the more I look into the Mint the more I feel it is too dangerous.” His main concern is how nonchalant Tyr is about it. The message Medium Bunz just sent include every leader in the guild. The only other person to respond besides SKY Ocean Hunter is Tyr. His only caveat was that she can’t promise them any of their items under any circumstance. As a hoarder of all kinds of items, THe Mint already processes a distinct advantage for now they have to be careful with how much they empower Mint. It seems to SKY Ocean Hunter that Medium Bunz and Tyr are trying to pull the wool over the Mints eyes. 

Inside the regional headquarters of the solemn Merchant Association building, a smiling Midas and a manager are locked in a fierce verbal combat with Medium Bunz of the guild Sunken Reef. The plump Lifestyle is being talked to by the manager, ” YOU wicked vile woman! Do you know what the Mint is those bastards are not what you think?” He can’t be any more precise as like with the Supreme Church they have agents everywhere. Speaking ill of them is only inviting doom on yourself. 

Medium Bunz, “We aren’t the one who raised taxes on a new guild, not even that you punished our members even in a personal capacity. The wicked one is you and your masters who few no one on earth so I bring those who transcend the world.”

The manager says, “Fine have it your way lets see how you least the dog that is the mint.” The manager waves his hands scores of clerks put all people out of the association. The manager is brought a bright box. Inside is a blade made out of Black gold. HE chants slicing at the door of the association. A bright light from the other side appears as the door open and a…
