I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

The intense fight seemed to be taking long, but in fact it didn’t last for ten minutes before the big behemoth in the air was this close from my shield border.

It was really stubborn. It kept withstanding all kinds of attacks and kept jumping forward. Even when part of its gigantic body was missing and lots of ugly looking wounds appeared all over its body, it didn’t even slow down its movement at all.

For a moment there I felt like this dude had a suicidal wish or something. However in less than two more minutes, it finally managed to jump outside the territory of my shield and fell fast towards the ground.

*Thud!*

Its immense body slammed heavily over the ground. If not for the instant appearance of the defensive beam the moment it crossed over the edge of my shield, it wasn’t going to last for a few more minutes like this.

The attacks of my fallen gods fell and got blocked by that beam. However when I saw the gigantic body of that zombie not moving, I felt slightly relieved.

It wasn’t dead yet, but it wasn’t far from that. At least it wasn’t going to cause me any trouble anytime soon.

Shifting my attention towards the second entrapped grand zombie, I coldly ordered the fallen gods to attack it with everything they got.

During this time, that grand zombie got lots of wounds. It wasn’t in bad shape like the one that just escaped, but my men were doing great in kiting its strength down.

*Crack!*

Just as my fallen gods started attacking, I heard this loud cracking noise coming from a certain spot up above. I looked and saw a deep crack appearing at one point at my shield.

Then like it was a virus spreading, more cracks started to appear next. The brutal destructive effect of these red beams wasn’t something easy to handle.

Even my grand defensive shield that got the ability to amend itself by absorbing energy from the world around failed to endure the pressure.

“Humph… Thundering Might!”

What was impressive about taking down one shield of mine? With the pillar in my hand, I could summon as many shields as I wanted.

The next moment a giant shield appeared and just placed itself under the one getting cracks. The new shield couldn’t integrate with the first one, so in less than a minute the upper shield got broken into pieces.

But it didn’t matter anymore. With the second shield in place, there was no way for those angels to step in and help the trapped grand zombie.

Being entrapped, the grand zombie felt its demise. Its attacks became faster and fiercer, and the lives it took before it fell were enough to clear up half of my forces here.

The shield was a demarcating zone, lining up my territory and separated it from the outside.

So the inside normal zombies were entrapped as well. After watching the grand zombie fall and die, I started to summon more warriors to replenish the ones who died, and gave the orders to all of them to clear this place.

*Roar!*

Just as my warriors were half way through clearing the entire place, I heard a mighty roar coming from outside. The grand zombie stood up after resting for a while, roaring fiercely towards me.

What? Were you mad because I left such deep scars at you? Or were you perhaps angry for losing your comrade?

By its loud roars, the entire world shook as I saw waves upon waves of zombies coming at me from all directions. The scene was really horrifying, but luckily I got my shield in place to protect me and my men.

“Hmm… It seemed like that grand zombie can’t build any den out of this spot…” after fortifying the shield with dozens more, I started to notice this point.

The grand zombie was out there, and I was the one entrapped inside. If I went outside, I’d get hit with the star beams and get myself into a great deal of trouble.

With the support from the defensive beams, there was no way to take the life of that grand zombie without using the same trick of my pillar.

If so, then it was wise and better for the grand zombie to retreat, create a distance enough from me and start using its many advantages to dig out another den.

It got manpower, it got support from high above, and it got the entire world all over. Then why didn’t it move yet?

There was a single explanation for that. The grand zombie didn’t even leave for its life, but it also drove all the zombies around to come and attack the shield helplessly like this.

Such an act meant there was an impatience and urge for that grand zombie to get this zone back under its control. And that also meant it couldn’t build any den anywhere else.

It could just go back to the fourth basin and start building there. However the distance between the two basins was already large. Aside from wasting time and risking me getting back at it, there was also the issue of its wounds.

So it had no other way but to try its best to take down my shields and regain control over this zone.

Realising all this made me much calmer. If my enemy was in such an urge and haste, then it was better to stall for time.

I didn’t rush to do anything until all of the zombies trapped inside got cleared out.

“See this damn hole? Make sure to cover it up with rocks and dirt,” I summoned more warriors to cover up the grand emptiness inside.

After clearing all these zombies, the place looked spacious at last. With the big hole at the centre, my warriors started doing labour work.

This might be something unbelievable to let such strong warriors work as labour men instead of fighting.

In fact there was a good opportunity here. With my shields standing between my men and the zombies outside, they couldn’t easily kill these zombies without fearing for anything.

The zombies were rushing over like kids running at candies. Just in one hour, the zombies got stacked on top of each other, covering a space of tens of metres all around.

With the grand size of my shields, this meant there were hundreds of thousands or even millions of these zombies here.

But even with such scary figures, they couldn’t even bring down my shields. In addition to that, I kept summoning more shields to strengthen the defences.

As my men started their work, the grand zombie outside seemed to notice this. I didn’t work in secrecy or tried even to cover up my intentions.

It was all on purpose. I wanted this grand zombie to see my army stopping the fight and start to cover up the hole.

This hole was so close to turning into a scary den. Seeing all its efforts go into the air, the grand zombie couldn’t stand still and started to join the fight itself.

It also kept roaring while slamming its giant deformed fists at the shields. It got strength indeed, but it wasn’t enough to shift the tide of this battle.

Seeing this made me grin evilly. It always felt best for one’s enemy to dance into one’s fingers like an idiot.

I wanted this jerk and the ones behind it to go all out. I wasted lots of time here, and I wanted to completely clear most of the zombies in this basin before jumping back to check over the other two basins.

I also got to visit the fourth basin at some point. It didn’t have the support of a grand zombie indeed, but who knew what dirty tricks these angels played there.

To be just sure, I planned to go to the fourth basin once before returning back to check over the other two basins.

I knew I couldn’t leave here before stabilising the situation. And that seemed to take a few days at least. It was a good move to clear the threat in these basins.

However it wasn’t enough to secure the situation in the entire continent. I recalled many brutal fights that erupted before while I invaded this continent aside from the war over the capital and the basins.

One of the most brutal fights happened when I left Lily and others behind and ventured alone to stab the heart of the enemy and attacked the basins and then the capital.

The fight over there was brutal, bloody, and long. I knew the zombies appearing there would be in huge numbers and the chances of having higher grade zombies were also higher.

But first I had to get rid of the little problem here.

The hole that got dug before was indeed huge! If not for the fact that my shields generated from the pillar were absorbing the energy from the world around and were expanding unceasingly, then the space covered first by the shields wasn’t going to be enough.
