Chapter 53 A Guild Is Not So Simple........
"Yunyun, transfer me to the city,"
Yunyun looked at him in shock and shouted, "waaa, stupid master, what about the dungeon?"
"Don\'t worry, I only need to do a few things. After that, we will work in the dungeon first" "
Yunyun looked down and mumbled, "You promise?" Grave nodded his head. Yunyun clapped her hand and Zap!
Grave opened his eyes. He was back in Gazzi city. He did not waste any time and walked toward the Abyss guild hall.
He came in front of a small two-story building. NPC guards were standing out on both sides. He entered the building and walked to the reception.
There was a huge line in front of the reception. Grave did not care about all that and walked to the front of the reception. When the receptionist saw him out of the line, she said, "Good day sir, you need to join the line for any query."
He said, "I want to meet the branch manager."
She looked at him up and down and asked, "Sir, do you have an appointment with the guild master."
Grave shook his head. "No, but you could contact him and say that I am here."
"Wait a min, sir." Saying that she did something to the magic crystal on the desk. A projection of the branch manager appeared.
"Why did you call?"
"sir there is a person who wants to meet."
"what\'s his name?"
She looked at Grave, and her eye shone. "Grave, sir." Hearing that name branch master got up from his seat and the projection dispersed.
The receptionist and the other players looked confused.
The branch master rushed down and came in front of Grave. "Good morning, sir," he loudly greeted Grave.
Grave nodded his head and threw the silver token at the guild master, "Here, now where is the thing that I asked for?"
The branch master caught the token and put it in his inventory, but players around already saw that token.
"Damn, do you see that?"
"That was a fcking silver token, right? Who is this guy?"
"Wait that Grave right?"
"What Grave brother?"
"Wow, Grave, the sword thrower is here. Did he join the Abyss guild?"
"Fck, he must get that token from the wolf war."
"I cannot believe he sold that to Abyss guild."
"Grave, did you join the Abyss guild?"
Players started talking among themselves. Most of them were independent players who work under the Abyss guild but did not join it.
The branch master looked at them and then said to Grave. "Sir, let\'s discuss things somewhere in a private place. Please, follow me."
Grave nodded his head and followed him to the top floor. In the branch master room. This was the first time he entered a guild manager\'s room in a city. In all his past life, he was always used to being part of that line. This was definitely an enormous achievement as only less than 1% of players could enter this room.
\' fck 1% of 4 billion is still 40 million. In my whole past life of 4 years of gaming, I was behind those 100 million people.\'
Well, this was a bittersweet movement for him. Grave knew that his past life\'s biggest mistake was to never be part of a guild from fear. Every game sense and experience that he had gone to gutters when it come to the guild.
He stopped cursing his past self and looked around the room. There were 4 more people that were already present in the room.
Grave cared little about them. He walked to the main chair, sat on it, and put his leg on the table. "One thing to cross on my to-do list in life." He said with a smile on his face.
Players in the room looked at him weirdly. Grave ignored them, looked at the branch manager, and said, "So yeah, give me a brief on a guild inner working."
The branch manager nodded his head and said, "Sir, single-player gameplay differed from a guild player. Did you see the wall dividing the city\'s inner and outer areas?"
Grave nodded his head like a curious child.
"Sir, this kind of wall is present in every kind of city in all 5 servers of Liberty online. Even the kingdom ruled by different species had this wall in the city they made. Do you know the use of this wall?"
"Well, obviously it is to protect the important people present in the city."
This time, a lady who was standing there on the side said. "Sir, that\'s from NPC\'s perspective. What about players?"
Roan thought for a moment and said, "I know a player needs to have either a high reputation in the kingdom or need to have a noble title to go to the other side of the wall. Nobles living on the inner side give most of the important tasks. Right?"
She said, "Only half knowledge sir, every member of a top guild in a city can go to the other side as much as they want. Before that wall, it is a competition between individual players where everyone fights to get unique better quests. But after the wall, it becomes the competition between guilds."
The branch manager spoke this time, "Sir, for a guild to progress, we need thousands of tasks. In the city, most of the bulk tasks come from the nobles living there. These Nobles choose a guild and hand over their task to them.
In a small city like Gazzi city, only one or 2 guilds will get all the tasks. This was the way NPC support a guild. Now Guild worked more like a union that would take the most rewarding tasks for their members, then distribute the remaining tasks to other non-guild players by taking some percentage of reward money.
This system made it harder for a new guild to get establish itself. No noble wanted to support a newly formed guild, as this could lead to dire consequences for them.
But that is also the same for guilds. If a bunch of nobles supported some other guild, then it was over for the current guild."
"Fck, so guilds are not all about war and money." Roan slammed his head on the table.
