The Upheaval of Borneo: Migrant and Intricate Waves of Players
The third wave of migrants will be the last aid coming from Gresik Prefecture to Al Shin Subdistrict. In the future, population growth will come from various methods, such as attracting the Chamber of Commerce to relocate and bring workers with them, attracting adventurous players, or even targeting the natives of Borneo Island. Heru Cokro has a clear plan to ensure that Al Shin District not only develops quickly, but is also sustainable.
While Heru Cokro was still exploring Gresik Prefecture during the third month, Al Shin District continued to develop slowly. Other ruling mode players tend to be in the silent phase. The IKN Alliance was preparing its forces after the Battle of Gresik, and the Jawa Dwipa Alliance was gathering their work after achieving their goals. The territorial war in Indonesia that began with the Battle of Gresik has ended, and the wilderness is calm again.
However, the four rebel forces continued to grow and develop as usual, spreading like a plague through the wilderness. Amidst this calm, the only shocking news was the murder of Wijiono Manto in Avian. The murder of a ruler in his own territory is good news, although it greatly disrupts order.
The killer made no attempt to hide his identity and even announced his actions on The Mask Rabbit forum ten minutes after the murder. They begin receiving missions from other players after the death of Wijiono Manto, which increases their reputation significantly.
Although the ruler mode player remained silent, the adventurer mode player continued to move. Friction between guilds was increasing, and small guild wars continued to occur in the wilderness. As the guild used its power, it became increasingly difficult for a small group of players to survive. The strict death penalty made the death of solo players extremely expensive. They were unable to ask for help from guildmates, and the moment they died, their levels would drop to zero, also losing their hard-earned equipment.
For solo players, death is the end of their game. There was no help to recover levels or equipment, and this created a huge pressure to survive in an increasingly violent world.
The most direct impact of this rule is that dead solo players feel burdened. Most of them then choose to change their jobs and become a livelihood mode player. Vishnu has set up rules that allow players to re-elect their work after death, but this can only be done once. After that, they could no longer change their jobs. Because of this, most of the players who died joined the guild after returning to life, causing conflicts between guilds.
Violence and murder are becoming increasingly common in the underworld. Blood was spilled among the group of players, and one of the ten largest guilds, UK-9, began to face great difficulties. UK-9 is a pure work guild and its combat power is very low. With the increase in skill levels of the players, their need for higher level resources also increased, but these resources were controlled by other powerful guilds. As a result, the UK-9 was caught in an awkward situation.
However, the UK-9 also has its own charm and appeal. Many guilds, both rulers and guilds, were interested in their livelihood mode players, and some even used high-level resources as threats to force UK-9s to join them. One of the most violent guilds in this act was Jala Mangkara, based in Jakarta. News circulated that they even used forceful acts against UK-9, which led to the loss of members.
Then came the dramatic change. The Matahari Alliance, based in Jakarta, suddenly announced their presence. There has been speculation that the Sun Alliance was interested in UK-9, and what is even more bizarre is that when the Sun Alliance began to move, Jala Mangkara retreated. The situation became increasingly complex with Roberto's intervention.
Suddenly, the Sun Alliance began to gain greater influence and even began to openly recruit members. Their aristocratic families, who had been hiding all this time, seemed to have decided to come to the surface. But, the Sun Alliance's interest was not only in the UK-9.
Suddenly, the attention was mostly on Jakarta. Heru Cokro also set his sights on UK-9 with similar intentions. Previously, he had recruited working players through the Army Pay Up The Irons Group, so his reviews fit his plans. Currently, Heru Cokro is waiting for the right time to launch an attack.
He had given the Golden Rat instructions to use the Boiling Rat Pamphong in order to follow the progress of this situation very carefully. Heru Cokro still remembers that in his previous life, Jala Mangkara had pressured UK-9 to join them. However, what was even stranger was that their guild leader, Budi Winarko, did not join them and suddenly disappeared without a trace. The true purpose of his disappearance remains a mystery.
There were rumors circulating that he had given up and was just an ordinary player. As the 3rd month comes to an end, summer begins to arrive, bringing with it a huge amount of activity and life in the wilderness. Summer is the focal point of the year.
The nobles started growing their crops because the previous grain crisis had made them very cautious. They decided to order the plantings privately in order to ensure their grain supply for at least the next half year.
On the 25th day of the 3rd month, Heru Cokro completed his journey and returned to Java Dwipa. When he arrived, the treasurer of Bank Nusantara, Sabil Fatah, came to see him. After several months of preparation, the first wave of banknotes had finally been completed in production. He came to give permission to Heru Cokro to inspect the finished product.
Heru Cokro took out a hundred pieces of gold banknotes and began to examine them. These banknotes have a classic look with only two colors, black and white. On it is a picture of Gresik taken from a map of the region. On the front, there is a symbol of the ruler's flag.
Sabil Fatah had previously wanted to use Heru Cokro's face as part of the design, but Heru Cokro rejected the idea. When using paper money, its authenticity is very important, and the key is how to prevent counterfeiting. Due to the limited level of technology at the time, Sabil Fatah could only use a laborious manual process, which was to print the Gresik Ruler stamp on each money sheet.
The Gresik Sovereign Seal is a symbol of authority that cannot be faked or imitated. Every one who attempted to do so, the penalty was that nine generations of his family would be cursed.
After obtaining the approval of Heru Cokro, this banknote will be launched in April. And coincidentally, the Army Group Pay Up The Irons had just completed the sale of their equipment, which had successfully sold out. As a result, Heru Cokro received 286,700 gold from the sale, with thirteen thousand gold used to cover the construction costs of Pamomong Rat Berdasi.
