I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

But it was enough. These hours meant the attack covered tens of miles. If it didn't kill all of the forces around, then most of them would surely have fallen here.

As he already knew this was a trap, and decided to call off his forces and save them, it was time to wrap things up here.

"Lucas, I'll leave things here to you," I summoned the two million soulers and reapers with gears, and let them be led by Lucas.

"Leave things here to me," Lucas said in a rare excited tone, which reminded me how deadly this dude would turn out when he smelled souls.

It was like vampires smelling the scent of blood in fairy tales.

I didn't plan to stay here. As I left things here for Lucas to handle, I started to fly towards the distance.

Even if I had tons of fiends out there to collect their bones and gears from, I still wouldn't entrust that bastard.

I still needed at least a day here to kill all the fiends and gather everything up. But if my treasure was secured inside my shields, and I got someone like Lucas to lead things here, then why should I remain inside and not go out there and collect everything?

I moved my chariot at its fastest speed, and in less than half an hour I managed to finally cross the edge of my shields.

The world outside was still covered by my silver ground. And as I expected, the ground was entirely covered up by the endless bodies of these friends.

"I should start working then," as I came out, I instantly summoned lots of warriors, held my horn and shouted, "go and gather up all the gears from this race. Pile them up inside the shield zone, not outside. Go!"

I placed great importance over bones, but the value of gears was much higher than bones in my eyes.

I could get lots of bones from the fiends inside the shields, and also could use other types of bones that I had.

But gears had to be replaced, and their number was limited. I had to move out, scatter tons of warriors at many spots, and give them the same order.

I took almost three hours just to cover up half of the battlefield. The area affected by the deadly waves of my shields spanned hundreds of miles.

It was far wider than I initially expected. And all these lands were covered up with dead bodies.

Just when I planned to keep doing this, something happened! That jerk watched me and realised what I was aiming for.

And as I expected, he sent tons of forces out there to stop mine and retrieve the dead bodies of the fiends.

He didn't send fiends this time. If I was him, I'd never make such a mistake. He sent the only race he would accept losing, the locusts!

They were ferocious, daring, knew no fear, and would keep coming until killing everyone.

They were bloodthirsty, and that made them the ideal troops to face mine.

But as he made his move that I anticipated, I also used mine.

"Kill!" I summoned a large number of warriors and let them move to intercept the incoming locusts.

If he used a race that had such great numbers, then he selected the wrong foe to test these locusts against.

He got his locusts, and I got my normal warriors... And shields!

I scattered warriors who didn't have any stat points inside bubbles of shields and left them to take care of these locusts.

​ Even if the locusts brought up here weren't any lesser than the ones I faced before at the twenty zones of mine, they were still not enough to stop me.

I used what the enemy considered as one of the strongest traits of the locusts to turn tables around and make them lose much of their efficiency.

I left these bubbles and warriors inside to attract the attention of these locusts, acting like I was using small magnets to collect an endless amount of metal powder.

As I flew over, I let warriors appear in the middle of these bubbles. These were the ones with stat points maxed out, enough to kill any locusts no matter how strong they were.

Most of the locusts were already attracted to the bubbles I created, and so the work of these warriors was simply easier than ever.

I kept doing this for almost twenty more hours straight without having a single moment of pause or rest. At the end, the seemingly endless locusts were now gathered up in between the bubbles and were either trying to breath the shields or fight against the experienced warriors.

As I saw this, I grinned evilly. "Time to show you what it means to be fighting someone like me," I muttered, knowing that my words would be picked by the keen ears of the enemy's leader.

"Go back inside," I held my horn and gave the order to all the warriors outside the shields, "kill your way through and enter the nearest shield zone."

I waited until all the zones outside the shields were void of any of my warriors. And once that happened, it was time for my counterattack.

The offensive skill came and all the shields here which got totally surrounded by locusts and endured their attacks for long hours finally started their retaliation.

The world turned all bright once more. It wasn't just threatening to my warriors here, but my warriors back there.

When I realised this, I started to call everyone back. It wouldn't be good to end up losing my soulers to such a brutal offence.

As this attack lasted for a few hours, I waited patiently on the side while a plan was formulated in my mind. If this would keep happening more often, then it was better to use a different tactic then.

Once the light faded and I could freely move, I started another round of spreading my warriors at the ground behind. Yet this time I didn't just use such a method alone, and also focused on using my shield skill more often.
