I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

The places controlled with them would be like graveyards! And the worst thing would be the support they’d gain from the system when they’d control any town or city.

The portals in these places would all fade away and turn into deep pits. It would turn these cities and towns into factories to produce more of these nasty creatures.

They were a plaque! Once infected a place, it would be really hard to exterminate them.

I had to find as many humans and races as I could during the fourth quest. It wasn’t just for building up armies and replenishing the losses we had in this war, it was for the fifth quest.

Or else I wouldn’t be able to leave here with a clear heart and join the golden quest.

According to what I knew, the fourth quest that just started for less than a day would last for ten to fourteen days.

It was a good period to do all this. Especially when I planned to use my second Earth world in a much better way.

I got out my staff and called back my chariot before jumping over to the northern gulf.

The area there looked quite different than what I left this area in. The entire zone was filled with dead bodies, while a huge army spanned over tens of miles, standing on the shore in wait for any sign of enemies.

Putting in mind what I learnt recently about the Hectors big plans, I knew this region couldn’t be left unguarded.

This gulf wasn’t just separating my lands from the lands on the other side of the guld. It was a source of danger.

I needed to replicate what I did back at my capital here. I also needed to leave behind enough forces to hold this area secured.

Going over this gulf and controlling the other shore would be pointless. The danger would come from the ocean waters here.

Trying to clear the gulf off any portals was useless as well. Even if there were portals down there right now, clearing them wouldn’t help in the future.

The enemy could always come here and spread chaos by summoning more portals. The only way was to build as many aquatic forts as possible, taking complete hold over this gulf.

The key for this lies in the neck zone of this huge gulf, the area connecting it with the ocean. If this neck was held firmly enough with forts and aquatic races, then not a single enemy would trespass my lands.

“Come,” as I decided that, I had to first help the eastern battlefield. The eastern armies were moving back to the capital. But they alone wouldn’t be enough.

So I came here and called for Lucias to get on board. “Bring the army back, leave enough forces of the other races here in defence.”

“Why not bring everyone with us? I smell the scent of a good fight on the horizon.”

This dude… He looked more aggressive and bloodthirsty than ever. It seemed this fight brought lots of changes to his personality, or perhaps awakening the old soul that went into slumber before.

“We have to defend here,” I simply said, “go and select enough forces from the remaining races to stay in defence here. Then I’ll call all of your boys back, and you come on board and remain on my side.”

“Ok, lord,” he bowed his head before moving down to execute my orders.

During the hour he spent arranging forces here, I started to think about what my next move should be.

[I want to ask for a favour] And this was the first move I decided to take right now.

[What? Ask and I’ll see what I can do]

It was Silverlining. And the first move would be finding the monster dens.

Without them, I wouldn’t be able to train lots of forces in such a short time for the fourth quest.

I tasted the benefits of having enough force stationed elsewhere. If not for the two armies stationed back at my second Earth with tons of humans and races, the fight at the bridge and the eastern frontier would have turned ugly.

[I want to buy monsters dens, enough to train good forces for me]

[Hmm… You are asking for the hunters’ impacts, right?]

[Indeed]

[Sorry pal, but this isn’t up to me or anyone] just when I thought he was going to help, his words weren’t of any help at all, [We have ties with them indeed. But these folks… They have their own minds and won’t listen to anyone]

[Then…]

[But I have another way to help] Just when I lost all hopes, he added, [I can ask the three sovereigns to buy dens for you. They will resell these over. I believe you are seeking low grade dens, ones that will spawn weak monsters for your forces to train on and kill, right?]

This dude was really something else! Even though he gave me such bad news, he already thought of a solution.

[I have no objection to that] I didn’t care from whom I’d get my monster dens, [But I want many aquatic and flying monster dens]

[I’ll gather up enough to fill an entire world with dens for you. As for the price…]

He paused, and I knew what he was thinking about.

[I’ll use a higher grade bones than my blue ones]

[It’s not only that! The sovereigns are anxiously waiting for your bones according to the deals from before. I shouldn’t have told you that, but they want to test and experiment your bones for their benefits]

Hmm… So he wasn’t just referring to using my higher grade bones in this deal. He was inclining over the three deals I had with these sovereigns.

He had a point here. If I was one of those three, I’d be dying to get my hands over as many bones as possible, before other sovereigns would move and seek bones from me.

[Tell them this, I’ll ask for a huge order this time according to our deal. Just give me one day before I’m ready. Also try to prepare as much dens as possible]
