I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

[They’ll take the frontline from our forces] I added more instructions about my damage control plan, [They will detonate the outer zones over and over, killing all the enemies that’ll arrive]

[And? You do know this isn’t going to work, right?]

[Just do this and buy me more time] I knew she got a point here, [I’m not sitting idle, right?]

[Ok] it wasn’t like this was the first disaster we faced together!

[Where are you now?] and after closing the chat with Lily, I turned to my next target.

[I’m at ground zero] I contacted Isac this time, and she seemed to get the bad news during my talk with Lily, [What do you want me to do?]

I liked how practical she was. She didn’t waste a single moment in complaining or freaking out.

[I want you to start changing the entire layout of the central zones in all the regions] I paused for a moment, arranging my thoughts before adding, [I want you to turn these regions into a living hell there]

[Will that stop these forces?]

[I got a plan! Or part of right now] I had different thoughts about what I should do. And no matter what idea I got, there was one simple common thing about these; I had to separate the two races from each other!

If I had to select one race that I would like my forces to face solo then they’d be the second race not the first one. Those locust-like races were much easier to handle than the Silence.

My forces were experienced at fighting endless forces like the second race. The zombie fifth quest trained all of my generals on how to deal with such tricky situations.

As for my warriors, they were killing machines. And if I let them fight the Silence race, such killing machines would turn pretty much useless and would become mere fodders.

“How will I do it?” I knew separating them was going to make things much easier on my forces. Even with the threat of spreading over the infection from these locusts, it wasn’t that hard to counter compared with the Silences.

Yet even if I took such a decision, I lacked the means to execute it.

“If I went out there, jumped between worlds, I might have a chance to stop their advance alongside the ones using the arrays…” I knew my presence there and using my techniques, I’d be able to stop the advance of these two races.

But I lacked a means to really separate the two races. From all the artefacts I got, there was nothing that could do such a thing.

“If I don’t have any means to do it, then I have to improvise,” I had to do something anyway, “even if I didn’t manage to totally separate the two from each other, I’d still take much of those Silences out…”

Before deciding anything, I got to see the current situation first. [Where are Sara and Legend right now?]

I knew these two were in two undeveloped and not properly defended zones.

[Their regions already got enough defences, so don’t worry about that]

[I’m not] I lied, [I just want to send more forces to them]

[You should send more forces everywhere! The orders you gave brought much damage already!]

I got that detonating the frontlines using the fifth layer of the star arrays was kind of a blind attack for everyone. Be it my forces or the enemies, both were going to fall under such attack.

Yet I was prepared to receive such losses. If that came at the cost of stopping the enemy in their tracks, then I’d say never say no to such losses.

[I’m going to once I’ve arrived at the frontlines] I paused before adding, [Did you link the frontlines with portals?]

[We didn’t have the chance to do that] she paused for a long minute before adding, [We don’t need to do it now either. The frontline and all the regions beyond it will be lost in each zone]

[No, that’s not true]

[What do you mean by that?]

[The forces using the star arrays will always use these at the frontline areas] I paused before adding, [The zones they’ll clear using the arrays will always be the spots where the new arrays will be activated at]

[This… But we are currently using the star arrays in the existing defences. The forces of these two will still need long hours before arriving at the different frontlines]

[Let them take their time. And when they cleared a spot, let the next wave of soldiers move forward and cross more distance. This way the lost regions will be covered]

[I don’t hold much hope for such plan]

I stopped talking with her as I looked at the horizon, [I’m already here. Let me check things out first before telling you what to do]

I closed the chat with her and examined the piece of hell that was now taking the entire line of horizon up front.

I was still miles away from the current frontline. But that frontline was burning fiercely under violent waves of explosions that came from two directions.

From one side, my forces were running fast, heading back to the direction I came from. During my flight here, I was busy thinking about how to solve this problem and didn’t care about running for their lives on the ground.

Soldiers would worry about their lives, while leaders and generals should worry about how to win the battle.

And now I had to find a way to solve such a disaster and secure victory for my side.

I watched in silence during the next half an hour. The sounds of explosions kept ranging wildly from out there. I saw the ground tremble and crack, even the sky started to dim and grow reddish black in colour.

It was a very brutal fight! And the other side seemed to use some sort of explosive offensive techniques or weapons to counter my star arrays.
