I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

The spaces created in between the huge circular hills turned fast into slaughterhouses for the zombies.

I just flew for an hour, released tons of my warriors in these areas before the tempo of my forces started to take shape.

The zombies were indeed mighty and terrifying, but they lacked one simple and yet crucial element. They were indeed the embodiment of the human wave tactic, however they lacked intelligence.

What was good about having endless numbers but no brain? It wasn’t useful, especially against someone like me.

I watched the brutal fight going on here and knew it wasn’t going to end soon. The zombies in the wide gaps were already getting slaughtered, yet there were tons of them forming these circular hills.

And there was still more coming from the areas around.

“At least they can hold their ground for now,” I knew this was looking good, but it wasn’t enough. The entire continent was ushered under the same deadly attacks, and the situation was dire in most if not all areas.

So instead of just waiting on the side, I started to jump over to another location.

The location I selected this time was one of the big basins. It was where a mighty battle once erupted, one of the most brutal ones, the first basin I ever met in this continent.

I still recalled the scenes of fights going on here like the war just ended yesterday. The tall and majestic looking mountains that stood mighty and tall like they were a grand wall were still there.

The repair process of my side worked only over the settlements and places inhabited by the remaining civilians of the Hector race. So it wasn’t a surprise that such a far away and desolate place wasn’t attended well to.

The signs of the previous battles were still evident and fresh. The grand mountainous wall was still having the deep scars left by the merciless beating and fights that erupted back then between me and the various flying legions of the Hectors.

Seeing this brought many memories back and made me sigh. After all this, after fighting and winning, I still ended up losing a grand number of citizens to zombies.

However this place wasn’t silent or calm as it should be. The desolation left after the war ended changed.

Right now the entire ground was filled with an endless stream of zombies. As this place served as a grand battleground with endless corpses and no living people, the zombies seemed to move in daze most of the time.

I arrived at the outer edge of this place and found that till the end of the horizon the zombies kept appearing in my eyes.

“Tsk… Dealing with these places will be more troublesome than I expected…” After flying for almost an hour, I reached this conclusion.

And the source of it wasn’t just the obvious advantage in numbers to the zombies’ favour, but it was thanks to a certain variable that startled me at first.

As I flew around the place, I recalled the place where the final battle happened. The deeper I flew the denser the zombies became.

However when I jumped to the centre of that last battle, I couldn’t help but blink twice and realised how hard the cleaning task here became.

Just in the middle of this entire basin there was a grand lake. The place was already filled with many lakes in different sizes. Before these lakes served as medium, helping my forces to step into the cultivation realm.

However that came on the cost of killing the guardian baby beast living here. And as it was a corpse, it turned under the effect of this damn quest into a zombie!

In front of my eyes, a grand zombie appeared with a majestic building that defied logic. It was almost hundreds of metres tall, with a hundred metre width.

Looking at it made me feel disgusted. Its skin was more emaciated and filled with disgusting blisters.

It was filled with wounds and pockets of pus. Just seeing it made me feel the urge to vomit.

However with such a special form of zombies here, things were doomed to grow to the worst.

The zombies in the central zones were already much denser than any other area I visited before. This wasn’t just thanks to the large number of troops sacrificed here, but it seemed this special zombie had some sort of an ability to control many zombies in a wide area.

This wasn’t just my guess, but I saw the zombies down below moving in tacit understanding and showing me the miracle of working in order.

This was unheard of! Zombies were supposed to be lacking any intelligence. But with such special zombies here, it seemed they crossed a huge length of development and suddenly jumped in the direction of building up a den.

That was what the zombies down below were doing right now. The ground that was already scarred with the leftovers of the last epic fight and was still recovering had to suffer again.

Piles of dirt were getting evacuated from the ground as an endless number of zombies started digging. In the middle of all this, the grand zombie stood erect with its eyes flickering with dark yellow light.

Tsk! I knew these zombies were going to start dens the moment they controlled a town or city. However this wasn’t what was going on here.

Even after constructing a den, the zombies in the region should be weak and unorganised. The subsequent generations of zombies formed from the den should have little improvement, but not to the degree of that big dude here.

With such mere luck and fluke, the zombies crossed such a long distance in the road of evolution and got themselves something great.

Such a grand zombie was on par with the lethal zombie generals I long heard about before in the records. And those would take almost a decade to develop!

That was enough for twenty grades of the quests to pass! That was like meeting a boss of level hundred while I was still in the beginning village.

Damn! Just seeing this monster was enough for me to feel a lot of headache. And this wasn’t just the only special zombie that would appear.

I killed four guardian beasts before and managed to tame the fifth one. That meant there were four total special zombies rushing up to construct their dens at the moment.

If this was left untouched, then these dens would develop into a high form dens from the start. That would give birth to a scary bunch of zombies from the early days of this quest!

How damn unlucky I was! This quest was indeed the nemesis of all the strong and outstanding individuals in the past quests.

“Alright… Time to get serious then… Come out!” As things developed this far, it wasn’t logical for me to stand aside and wait for the disaster to mature.

The moment I decided, I summoned my deadly fallen gods. “Kill it!” I pointed towards the hill sized zombie in the distance and gave the order.

*Swoosh!* *Boom!*

Just as I spoke, my experienced fallen gods acted. They released their deadly attacks one after another, and rays of deadly energy landed over that zombie.

However something unexpected happened!

“This… It inherited that damn annoying jumping ability of the guardian babies?” my eyes constricted while watching the grand appearance of that zombie disappear from the spot and appear a couple of miles away.

*Rumble!*

However the attacks of my fallen gods weren’t that useless. At least they hit the zombies around and created a series of massive explosions that swept clean lots of zombies.

“This is going to be a little hard…” I could only sigh while seeing that slippery zombie jump from one side to another. It was so damn agile even with such a huge body, reminding me of those guardian beasts I fought with before.

Each one brought enough trouble for me before. Dealing with such a hard to catch enemy was time and effort wasting.

Yet I never called my boys back. As they missed that hill sized zombie, they caused enough damage to the surrounding zombies.

“Running around? Then let me hunt down your kin first,” as it proved harder to get at that damn thing, I decided to ignore it for now and aim at the surrounding zombies.

Even if it was a fierce general, it wouldn’t pose a threat by itself without the presence of all these minions around.

“Kill everything around,” I pointed towards the ground, “leave none alive!”

Rounds of attacks landed all over the place in the next few minutes. With each fallen god acting as a nuke weapon, the entire place got bathed fast under unending surges of flames.

I stood in midair looking at all that with cold eyes. I’d never show empathy towards my enemies, especially not towards those zombies.

*Roar!*

Just as the zombies in the seen part of the basin got scorched and burnt down by my fallen gods’ attacks, the giant zombie boss seemed to not take it anymore.
