I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

[Surely it isn’t] I knew this already, [Also there are new weapons we can make best use of. I’ll send these weapons to the western frontline, and make forces there able to have a good card to use when needed]

I was talking about mine. These mines had a great role in defence. And right now they would be useful against such stressful situations.

Of course using them while dealing with the current low grade zombies would be a waste. But after a month or more, the zombies would grow to be scary foes.

Using mines would prove useful more than ever. My only worry was that the amount of these mines might not be enough to cover up all the places required their help at.

So I first went to ask Garry. And what he told me made me realise my worries weren’t groundless.

Despite the research department providing Garry with tons of these mines, they weren’t even half from enough I needed to fortify the eastern frontier.

Not to mention I also needed these mines to be used in invading other worlds.

“Alright…” I paused, while thinking about how to solve this problem, “it’s not a big problem. The eastern frontier doesn’t need mines at the moment. They can wait for weeks if they get reinforcements. But that doesn’t mean I shouldn’t send people there to train them on these mines…”

I knew mines were growing to be hot cakes right now. But the urgent place needed for these to shine was the other worlds we were going to invade. As for the eastern frontier, it wasn’t that urgent at all.

The forces there were enough to stand their ground for days or even a week. And when more reinforcements would arrive, they could withstand their ground for much longer.

So it was better to let them wait and not use mines for now. After all, even if I sent part of the mines over, they wouldn’t get the chance to use them anytime soon.

I sent messages over to Lily and Isac, informing them about the change in plans. They seemed a bit annoyed and worried, but I assured them that more mines were going to be made in the next two weeks.

As I promised that, I ordered Garry to fetch someone back to the second Earth world and tell old Gan and others there about this new task. They needed to focus more on making lots of mines, the more the better.

Then I took Garry and his former few thousands to the eastern frontier. This region wasn’t that accessible to me as I didn’t march through every single part of it.

I had to appear at some places away from the real frontline by hundreds or even thousands of miles. As I did, I had to travel with the few thousands led by Garry. And so I gifted him one of the chariots to use.

This task took almost three days to finish. Each time we arrived at the frontline, I didn’t stand idle and started forming a few safe zones around, to make sure things wouldn’t grow dire here.

Even if the zombies grew stronger, with these safe zones my forces here were able to handle them. I also filled most of these safe zones with warriors. After all, I got an endless amount of them.

In the meantime, Garry led his people to teach others about the proper use and common tactics the research department developed about the use of these mines.

I watched all this unfolding while getting news from Lily and Isac. what I asked for had already been done. Many capable generals came to my capital, and their respective armies came as well.

As for the central armies, they left a few people behind to just keep order and make sure nothing bad would happen without getting noticed or stopped.

The rest of these armies started their long journey towards the eastern frontier. There were no portal zones linking the midpoints of my kingdom with the eastern borders. So they had to cross such a vast distance on foot.

Aside from all this, Fang contacted me once more. He was facing a great deal of trouble, and almost lost control over the three continents in the south.

This was expected. According to his words, grand and scary zombies appeared from the ocean, came to knock over their forces’ doors and started brutal fights with them.

He asked for help, but frankly I got enough on my mind right now to even think about helping him.

[Just abandon these three continents if you can’t keep them safe. I’m quite busy right now, and can’t even move any army to help]

[What about armies in the south? They can help me, right?]

[Unfortunately they can’t. There is a scary zombie standing in watch over the southern waters]

[This…]

[It’s futile to resist right now. Sometimes it’s better to concede something and gather up strength than acting rashly and risking losing too much]

[Sigh!] I knew he didn’t like my words, but I was honest when I advised him.

[How about the regions controlled by you?] I asked, trying to shift the talk over something else.

[We are holding just fine. However we also noticed a few of these weird zombies coming at us from the ocean. Their numbers aren’t that great, but this might escalate to something bigger]

When I heard that, I recalled the areas they controlled. The Selvators controlled the southern east lands of my kingdom.

Comparing this place with the spot guarded by that scary turtle zombie, I couldn’t help but frown. A bad omen flashed over my mind, making me frown deeper about this.

[Is it a coincidence? Separate incidents or something?] I couldn’t help but ask. However his next response shattered this fragile hope of mine.

[No! This kept happening during the past three days. And more and more zombies are coming to attack our lands. It’s not a separate attack. It’s just the beginning of something bigger]
