I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

When the Hescos would lose enough, then it’d be time to push forward and claim a huge number of lands. Before this, I had to be patient and accept such a long war of attrition.

I planned to put these ten to use under Lily and Isac lead. The latter two would be responsible for testing the abilities of these ten, and I might also fetch one to old Gan and let him assess him at the research department.

“Stay by my side for now,” I said before starting to go down the hole. I spent almost one hour enhancing and checking over my legendary Hescos.

At first I was worried that my enemies down below would notice what I was doing. But when I saw how scary these legendary Hescos were, I didn’t fear anything.

If the Hescos knew, what could they possibly do? Try to run away? If they could, then they would have run away a long time ago when things started to grow out of control.

According to Matte’s words from before, there was no direct path linking the base here with the outer world. They couldn’t run away and the remaining forces here weren’t enough to secure their travel in the middle of my forces outside.

Their only hope for survival lay in the far away forces coming towards here. I held many doubts before about crushing that base before the arrival of these endless reinforcements.

But after seeing how capable these legendary Hescos were, all my doubts went into oblivion.

I have nothing to fear right now. Be it an underground base or heavily fortified one, nothing would stop me.

And the main reason behind this lies in the six thousand underground legendary Hescos whom I instantly summoned on the surface while floating on top of the hole.

“Start digging a grand path towards the hidden base below,” I said in a low tone, but it was enough to make anyone hearing me right now tremble in fear.

I watched the thousands of legendary Hescos activate their drilling skills and start digging the ground like it was made up of tofu.

Their skills were mostly dedicated to digging the ground, with two fighting skills and one ultimate skill that could both dig the ground for thousands of metres or crush any strong defence no matter how sturdy it was.

This ultimate skill would add an element of sharpness and fierceness to the edges of their spears. When used, their spears would turn into gigantic shadows that would extend for a hundred metres, acting like it had an engine that would rotate them.

That was enough to crush anything no matter what. I had a feeling that my chariot shield would show deep cracks if such technique was used on it, or even shatter if it didn’t have enough energy supporting it.

But right now, and with the grand number of legendary Hescos working, I didn’t need them to use any ultimate skill. The ground kept descending tens of metres with each strike of their spears, and in a matter of ten minutes, a hole with a depth of two thousand metres was formed.

It was on par with the vastness of the opening of the pit hole.

pA(nd)A no ve1 The few thousand legendary Hescos gave me the impression that they’d be able to dig another form of that complicated underground fortress if they got days.

Seeing them work in such a way made me realise how the Hescos initially managed to build up such a complicated way in a few days. If I got one hundred thousand legendary Hescos, I could build one in one day!

*Rumble!*

When they got near that base, the ground fell and the grand structure of the underground base appeared. The dirt and rock fell, revealing a complicated structure of tunnels, rooms, and even fortified zones.

“Where is the main headquarters here?” The entire place was at least a few miles in radius. I couldn’t just walk around and waste time while my target would run for their lives.

They got nowhere to go, but I’d hate to chase them around when I spent all this effort to find them.

If I was alone, then I’d scatter my warriors all over the place while searching for the heads of the Hescos manually and personally.

But why would I do that when I got a tour guide next to me?

“There are around five main places, there, there, and there,” he started to point at five spots. When I examined these, I found tons of forces guarding these places.

Each place was a vast room with many tunnels coming out from it and linking the room with other places. It made sense to be the main headquarters.

“Go and kill everyone,” as this was the last decisive battle of the entire war, I called forth my soulers and let them be led by Lucas.

At the same time, I took out the twenty thousand legendary Hescos and divided them into five main groups, each led by two of the genius legendary Hescos.

As I spread them all over the place, I started to use my techniques. Despite the legendary Hescos being overbearing, they were still quite expensive.

I’d never believe the Hescos would gather up weaklings to guard their main base. All the forces here should be elites, the top fighters in the entire Hescos armies.

I sent everything to the ground and kept only one thousand legendary Hescos led by the Alpha dude. At the same time, I kept one hundred thousand soulers and five thousand fallen gods.

I called these from the scattered battlefields all over the place. I didn’t know if I took them from the pit hole or the surface, and that didn’t matter anymore.

This might be the main base of the Hescos, but as it was dug under the ground, they didn’t have much room to deploy enough forces to guard this place.

So it made sense to find a few troops out there. I estimated the total forces there to be less than a million. Using my couple of million soulers alone was an overkill.

Not to mention I was also using the brutal legendary Hescos and the techniques of mine.
