Getting the fees aspect of his admission sorted was just the start for Max, the last day for admissions was at the end of the month and even with the fees part almost sorted out, Max had a lot more to do.
Unlike the tutorial game Omega, where the world was pretty much unexplored when players started the game at level 0, resulting in there being many once-in-a-lifetime opportunities at the start of the game, Sigma has been around for a long time seeing most of the unique life-turning opportunities having already been grasped by players years ago.
Hence, when one did find such an opportunity it was akin to finding a needle in a haystack and a truly god-sent chance to turn one's fate.
According to Max's past life memories, one such opportunity was going to appear in BlackLake City today, and Max intended to make the most of it.
The BlackLake City's mayor was an influential player belonging to the non-violent faction of the goddess of life Beniogre, and he was a man who ruled BlackLake City with a very lax set of laws.
Even so, the mayor was very harsh on those belonging to the vampire race as he had a long-standing prejudice against them, for one of the vampires had killed his wife for food many years ago.
Since Sigma was a free world for all races to enter, vampires did roam on the streets of BlackLake City, however, the police force often heckled them and interrogated them for crimes they never even committed.
This led to growing discontent amongst the vampires towards the Mayor, and in what was to be a turning event of the century, today was the day that a small group of vampires was to attack the mayor's house and kill his daughter.
In his past life, a fire broke out mid-way during the assault, and a passerby tier 1 player by the name of ' PassMeMoney ' rushed inside the house to look if anyone needed help, reaching exactly in time to save the mayor from certain death.
With the mayor saved and his daughter dead, the mayor went on a rampage and ordered the slaughter of the culprits, putting a bounty on their heads.
However, 2 days later when the news came that the culprits had been killed by the mercenaries, the non-violence believer of goddess Beniogre took his life in self -guilt but named the player ' PassMeMoney' who saved his life as the new mayor of the town.
This is how a tier1 player inherited the reigns of an important base like BlackLake City and gained a lot of political and economic influence as a result.
It was truly an unexpected event and many envied passmemoney for his good fortune. However, if Max were to have his way that fortune would be his to claim this time around.
The mayor's house was in the Porsche area of the city, it was clearly a settlement of the wealthy as a police patrol was visibly dense, the streets became much wider and the usual unbearable congestion of the city became noticeably sparse.
There were still 7 tier 1 guards standing outside the gate of the mayor's house with 9 more standing inside the walls and patrolling the garden, which gave a clear warning to all who looked towards the mansion with nefarious intentions in mind to think about illegally entering the place once again.
Max chuckled, the moment the assault would start all these guards were going to rush into the mansion abandoning their post, giving Max the chance to enter right from the main gate.
Walking casually, Max waited for the opportune moment to play the hero.

( Meanwhile the vampires )
" Yesterday 7 vampires were taken into custody by the local authorities and beaten brutally in police questioning for crimes they did not commit.
Brother Johnson DIED from his injuries at the medical facility today.
Today we strike for brother Johnson, today we strike for revenge, and today we strike for justice!
The mayor has humiliated and oppressed the vampires for too long in this city, now it's time for him to pay! ". A strong feminine voice said, her red eyes emitting a murderous intent, it was clear that they called for blood.
She seemed to be the squadron leader and the strongest of all the vampires around her, as she stood with an air of natural charisma that was usually only found in nobles.
" We go for the attack exactly when the sun hits 75 degrees, and the guards change shifts.
It is a narrow 5-minute opening and our sources suggest that the Mayor is inside the building for the entire day to help prepare for her daughter's upcoming tenth birthday celebration.
This is the perfect chance!
We go in, we take out the guards, we make sure that the Mayor stares deep into these red eyes that he so strongly hates, and only then do we plunge a dagger through his heart!
Any questions?"
" No princess Asiva, no questions! " The subordinates replied in unison.
