The mysterious egg had only a few hours left before it hatched , and honestly Rudra was feeling extremely excited to see it. According to his past timeline it would be a ferocious fire dragon that would be born from the egg.

The little dragon would grow up into a full sized adult in just under one year , by which point it would become instrumental in conquering other cities . Rudra dreamed of how he would ride on the dragon's back once it grew to full size and scorch the battlefields , he with his solar powers and the dragon with his dragon's breath!

Rudra chuckled at the exciting times that were sure to come ahead. He only needed to wait a little before that , and he wished to deplete a little bit of his accumulated workpile before that happened.

Rudra brought up the city stat pannel.

----

City name : Purplehaze city

City Area : 464 km^2

Total population : 12.1 million

Security index :45---> 65/100 ( Good )

Culture : 30-----> 31/100 ( Poor )

Public order :35----> 45/100 ( Neutral )

Military : 100,000 enlisted

Education : 72---- >73% literacy ( Good)

Unemployment rate : 33-------> 4% ( Good )

Public sentiment :25-------> 35% ( Poor)

Tax income : 112,000 gold

Overall evaluation : The city has started to recover from the beast tide , the new mega projects undertaken by the City Mayor has greatly help alleviate unemployment.

The increase in jobs has also brought an increase in public safety and order . It is only a slight beginning but it may lead to emergence of a new middle class.

The citizens are starting to get optimistic about the new regime as a few tangible changes can be noticed.However they are still unsatisfied about the mayor not doing anything to improve the quality of life.

NOTE : A lower cultural index will have people migrating away from the city in search for better places to live!

There maybe a mass migration if the city sentiment falls below 20%!

Rudra was satisfied after seeing this screen , the massive reinforced wall project had costed him a shit load of money , yet it's effects were evident. The unemployment rate went down and with it went down the crime rate .

The streets were safer , people were sleeping with their bellies fed.Overall the city was developing smoothly.

The wall was actually coming out ahead of the planned schedule as a outline could clearly be seen around the city.

Tax income for the first month was finally in , and it was not as much as Rudra expected , yet it was a little bit of money. The current taxation laws are too lax , and needed to be changed , However such changes could only be done gradually and in phases.

Rudra would soon set up the teleportation array inside the city , connecting it to the rest of the world , hence charging a fee for its services. The teleportation array was an absolute goldmine. It would constitute for over 60% of the city income in the future.

Rudra's next immediate plans included the making of the teleportation array and training his pet , while going on dungeon runs with the guild members to level up.

Outside the game , Rudra would start the enrollment of the Elite academy welcoming the first batch of recruits. Strengthening the guild , and strengthening the city , were the top priority for him in this peace times before the cities became open to attacks when the one year cooldown ended.

By that time Rudra planned to have atleast one batch of recruits (30,000) strong within his ranks , and other 30,000 atleast halfway into graduation.

With 2300 archballistae mounted on top of 13 foot wide walls of reinforced concrete , Rudra wanted to turn Purplehaze city into an impregnable fort. Wether the Elites managed to win or loose other territories in the future would be left to be seen , however Rudra wanted to make sure that Purplehaze city would forever remain theirs for all time to come.

But to afford this massive expenditure , Rudra needed to find ways to make more money , only because Karna and SMG raided an entire royal treasury , could they sustain such grand expenditures.

If Rudra wanted to make the city culturally richer , and introduce luxury buildings like public baths or giant libraries , he would need to increase his source of income first.

The training of the military had started , with there being a force of 120,000 strong . The average level of the military soo far was tier 1 , level 55. Which was good enough for Rudra , as by the time they were done training they would most likely be all tier 2 soldiers.. That would make it a formidable force , for the current level of playerbase .
