I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

We lost tons of apaches, most of the suits, and many weapons were decommissioned after the attacks of the Hescos.

If I wanted to replicate such a result again, it would take a long time to prepare before aiming for another crushing victory.

At the same time, most of this victory was done by the brilliant generals of mine. I knew I got great generals, but I couldn’t be that sure that other generals would be on the same calibre as these two.

The secret of victory was the timely actions of these two generals. Not to mention the last trick that even I didn’t know how they did it.

There were many variables if I tried to replicate the same result again. That goes without saying that the needed preparations of weapons and suits would take a long time to get done.

As I went into silence, Silverlining seemed to read my thoughts wrongly.

[Don’t worry that much. The defences you just crushed are well known in the entire universe as the Hescos lair. It’s very famous and very formidable defensive tactic that even my people will find it hard to crush]

[Oh, that defensive structure is famous?] I was surprised when I heard about that.

I knew how special these defences were, but never thought this was a well known defensive formation of the enemy.

That made sense actually. Such grand and complicated formation wasn’t something that could be done on a whim.

If it was a well known formation, that meant it was the fruit of many great minds contributing to it over a long course of time. And that made my victory even more shocking.

[It is! The Hescos rarely lost a fight while using such formation. Despite that’s partially because the current quest stage is low, and there was no paragons stationed out there when you attacked, but it’s still pretty impressive to crush it]

pan,da-n0v el [I got what you mean] I knew he was trying to tell me that I crushed the hardest defences Hescos might use in fighting me. And as they were limited by the quest low level, this meant the upcoming fights wouldn’t pose that much of a challenge.

However I also knew this wasn’t entirely true. However I decided to end the discussion here with Silverlining as I asked again about the recording and the gears needed to make it run.

[Wait for one hour, I’ll prepare these for you]

I closed the chat with him, took another glance over the world of Hescos. The surrendered troops there were signing the contracts sent to them. At the same time, the forces were starting to form and reorganise themselves.

This war was won on a huge price of losing too much. Especially at the last stretch where most of my forces got entrapped in the middle of Hescos forces coming from air, ground, and underground.

So the previously formed armies lacked enough forces to be called proper armies again. Reforming all these was a must, and that meant the two generals were starting to operate once more.

In addition to that, many forces went all over the place, exploring this massive and complicated defensive place. Despite many towers being damaged either by us or as collateral during the last battle, the entire place was still useful as a base.

What it really lacked was portals. If it got portals, then I’d call this the perfect base for my forces in that world.

But there was not a single portal. For such a grand structure that spanned over hundreds of miles, it was quite weird to not have a single portal there.

I wanted to ask Silverlining about that, but there was a better question than that.

[Can you send me everything you know about that grand defensive structure?] As one hour passed, I sent this over to him while waiting for him to fulfil his promise.

[I’ll send you the details in one day] he paused before adding, [I don’t have such great knowledge about that design. Let me ask around and gather everything known about such a hard to crack design. Once I gathered everything, I’ll send them over]

[Cool!] I got what he meant. Such grand defensive design wasn’t that easy to handle, or else it wouldn’t be a nightmare to many, including the Toranks.

And as he was a low levelled dude, it made sense he didn’t know much about it. So he had to ask around, and I appreciated that.

[I’ll send the recording and gears over right away]

[How many copies did you prepare for me?] I wanted at least ten copies to use. If more then it’d be great.

[A thousand copies] yet the number he said left me speechless for a few seconds. [Hahahaha! Are you surprised? Don’t! You did a great job and my people already made tons of copies to distribute all over the universe. So it’s normal to give you these]

I understood. If they were just tossing a thousand copies over like it was nothing, how many copies did they prepare? Million? Millions? Damn!

I felt hesitated before deciding to go on with it. If they wanted to make me a celebrity, then I should accept the fire coming from being a public figure.

In the next minute I received what he sent. The records he sent were in the form of a ball that had a central hole in it. It was big enough to be like the size of my head.

As for the gears that would operate these, they came in the shape of a huge box. The box was almost double my height, and it had a hole for placing the recording ball at.

It looked like a drawer, with a pipe that extended from its middle and went like an arc over the device. There was no button, no wheel, nothing to activate this thing.

[How can I use this?] After failing to find anything to turn this thing on, I finally asked Silverlining.
