Chapter 73 - A Divided Cuber Corporation  

( in the meeting hall of cuber corporation)

The technicians frowned upon seeing the True Elites exploiting the bug in the game. This was the first time a bug appeared in the game ' Omega ' , and it was only because of the event, the dungeon was originally not a part of the designed game.

The bigger problem however was the bombs, bombs were not supposed to be introduced so early into the game, all the recipes surrounding the bombs are heavily regulated, they never expected someone to actually get it soo early into the game .

Even if the elite's knew about the secret passage and ledge glitch , without thinning the existing 3000 goats to a smaller number using bombs they would not have been able to leisurely farm exp.

Also the videos of their guild war and dungeon boss fight had stirred trouble for the Cuber corporation. Bombs are too strong! They totally make clearing dungeons a cake walk , just keep throwing bombs and even solo players can steamroll through nightmare modes.

Such things can cause the balance of the game to tilt, and hence the meeting today was to discuss on this issue. However the bigger issue was , their policy clearly stated that they would not directly interfere with player gaming experience , and whatever the Elites did , they did it off their own merit , exploiting a bug isnt a crime. Neither is using bombs to steamroll , it is not stated anywhere that gaming cant be easy.

But to the counter point , it was only one such ridiculous group of 56 in the entire 2 billion player base. Targetting a small guild like them , seemed petty of the organization .

This caused a huge debate to erupt at the headquarters. Finally it was decided that the Elite's should be offered compensation , in return for nerfing their group.

A system notification was sent to Guild Leader Rudra , should he accept , he would be teleported to the mentainance lobby to talk with the cuber staff.

Rudra frowned at seeing the notification , but knowing that nothing good will come from denying them.?He chose to accept.

Instantly he was teleported to a light blue lobby , it was the same lobby one enters when choosing the class and subclass , firstime logging into the game , it felt weird to be here again .

Then a person in navy robes with CUBER printed on it extended a handshake to Rudra.

Rudra smiled and amicably shook his hand , however , inside his emotions were a wave of panic and anxiety .

Did the game developers find out that he was a Reincarnator??Are they here to ban him? Why is he called personally? Is it because he exploited a bug?

However in the end none of those thoughts showed on his smiling face as he asked " to what do i owe the pleasure??".

" Well actually.?It is a little embarassing , the higherups in the corporation are a bit shocked by your guild and its use of bombs , the AI did not predict the emergence of bombs soo early into the game , and has declared it to be tipping the balance of the game too much ".?The man said

" However , as we have a no intervention policy , we cannot directly ban your party from using bombs, hence we are here to negotiate today, trade the rights of using bombs to ask for a reasonable wish." The man said

Rudra was stunned by the proposition , the bombs were his guilds aces. The most feared weapons , he could not let go of them soo easily. However after thinking for a while , if he could trade it for better benefits Rudra was ready for that.

Mostly Rudra heaved a sigh of relief , atleast his secret was not found out ..... The situation was not half bad either , worstcase he rejects the proposition and would make the developers angry.?Well no , that was a bad choice , to be honest. Offending the developers never works out well . Humans are all petty.

But what should he ask for? First he needed time , he needed time to formulate a strategy for this negitiation . Hence he said " esteemed sir , this isnt a discussion i can do so casually , as it affects all of my guild , please provide me with 6 hours time , to consult with my party members and revert back to you".

The man flinched , he contacted his superiors and said." This is a Non disclosure agreement , anyone who you wish to talk abou this matter to , must sign it , including you first".

Rudra signed it instantly , the man seemed a little releived now, he reminded Rudra to revert back as soon as possible , and teleported him out.

Rudra quickly went to the guild and called Karna , Kalash and Amelia. He made them sign the non disclosures and the 4 started talking about what plan of action to choose.

This was a unexpected event for Rudra ..... If he played his cards right , he could win a lot from this exchange as he held a dominant position.

The 4 exchanged many crazy ideas , and prepared a list of possible things to ask for , they even put crazy ideas they were sure to be rejected . While all this was going on Amelia proposed a brilliant idea.

She asked Rudra to prepare a stockpile in the next 5 hours left before the next meeting , and sign a contract to not produce anymore bombs.

This way the elites will have a stock of few bombs to be used when the critical need came. It was a brilliant idea and Rudra and Kalash started crafting bombs like madmen.

After 5 hours the guild had a stockpile of old and recently crafted bombs of a total of .

frost bombs.

spike bombs .

Water bombs.
