Chapter 690 An eye towards the future  　　Rudra decided to hold a meeting with Ethan Grey when the dust of the cuber Corp's announcement finally settled.

　　The world was in a dissaray and the stock markets had literally crashed overnight as every single commodity had skyrocketed in price.

　　The government had to forcibly take control of the supply chain of food and other natural resources from private companies so that the currency remained stable.

　　The grey international was one such company who were impacted heavily by the announcement as the cataclysmic event took them off-guard and they lost trillions in value.

　　Luckily for Ethan Grey however contrary to the markets fall , the elites stock saw a sky-high increase as the common public understood that going into the future , power of the world would be in the hands of powerful guilds and especially dominant ones like the true elites would thrive in the chaos.

　　The situation became so incredible that even if people wanted to buy the elites stock , there was no-one actually selling it as there were millions of unfulfilled stock orders on the platform.

　　Ethan himself had been requesting a meeting with Rudra for the same and was anxious about waiting for the time that Rudra needed to sort things out in Omega.

　　The dynamic between the duo had undoubtedly shifted completely now.

　　When Rudra was a beginner in Omega , Ethan practically strong armed him into selling a portion of his guild at penny cost for him to provide Rudra asylum in the upside .　　With the rise of the elites , Rudra slowly carved his place in his empire and there came a time that the two became brothers and partners as Ethan gave Rudra an equal standing to himself in life.

　　However , with the new announcement now and the direction the world was progressing in it was going to be undoubtedly slow for old buisnesses to function , and now Ethan needed the elites more than the elites needed Ethan.

　　He was the weaker one in the relationship now and the tides had completely turned . Should Rudra wish to do so he could now strong arm Ethan into doing things he did not wish to do which was why he was anxious about the meeting.

　　Ethan had faith in Rudra 's character , however when he placed himself in Rudra 's shoes he knew that 10/10 times he would chose to exploit the other party if he was in the position to exploit them , as it was just the type of man that he was , which was why trusting others did not come easily for him.

　　When the two finally sat face to face in Ethan's conference room , Ethan fidgeted with his Favourite glass crystal , however unlike the usual arrogant fidgeting today it was a nervous one .

　　He said " So ..... What's the plan? ".

　　Rudra looked at Ethan and let out a deep sigh as he started to explain him about how things were about to happen in the next 2 years.

　　Ethan listened intently and tried to gauge Rudra's mood from the meeting as he could not find any traces of arrogance or hostility in the other party , which gave him a sign of releif.

　　After explaining the changes in Omega Rudra said " It's time for us to start building our own ecosystem in the upside , we already have the talents , now we should work on creating a self sustaining eco system here that has a surplus of energy , food and livestock to squander every month should the population expand in the future.

　　I don't trust the government to be able to hold down the fort much longer and sooner or later the real world currency will start to devalue seriously.　　The stable 1 gold to 500 dollars ratio that held steady for the past 6 years has crumpled down to 1 gold equalling 2000 dollars losing four times its value.

　　The world is going crazy right now and we need to be a step ahead ".

　　Ethan completely agreed with this analogy , although him and Rudra were rich along with most of the upside , the wealth they had would mean nothing if the currency devalued.

　　Now was the time to invest in technology and commodities as soon these two would become obsolete.

　　Rudra continued " I think u need to start playing Omega , i can have someone power level u very quickly in the game , we can start a power levelling programme and level every single rich man who needs quick levelling into the programme for a fee of 1 million dollars . However the prerequisite is that they must bring 1000 individuals with them to join the church of death !

　　For u it's free , but help me start this programme . I will also wire you most of my liquid money out of Omega , put someone from your department on it to buy as many candidates as they can to convert to church of death while use the rest to promote the flub out of it.

　　Make it a cult , make it a trend , do whatever you need to do , reels , memes , word of mouth , bribe , threaten , just get people to join! ASAP! ".

　　Ethan took notes of what Rudra said and nodded as if it would be done , in his mind he kept thinking Rudra would talk about doing him a favour next or some sort of exploitation , but those words never came out of his mouth.

　　In the end he only patted Ethan on the shoulders and said " Don't worry my brother , although your buisness is failing currently there will be an entire universe to conquer once we integrate .

　　Get into Omega , get those levels and sort the real world out for now , us two brothers will conquer the universe later ".

　　Ethan said nothing , but internally he was choking on his own tears. Rudra was truly a golden investment that he had made , the other was fully aware of his dilemma and position but never once did he even think about exploiting it , instead he left with an assurance that everything would become alright later.

　　Swearing to never betray this man for petty benefits in his life , Ethan Grey finally turned from a complete buisnesman to a true brother and Ally of Rudra Rajput.action
