I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

They used part of their feathers to form a shield, protecting them from the deadly attacks coming from my Avengers. And the other part moved to giant shaped big swords, axes, and knives that kept taking away my Avengers’ lives.

Even with the use of the Avengers I as tanks, they managed to penetrate through their shields and kill many of my Avengers.

Yet that didn’t just come without paying a hefty price from these fiends. Even if their feathers worked in tacit cooperation with their gears, the attacks coming from my Avengers were too much to handle.

Especially those AOE and melee Avengers. Both worked to bring down most of the fiends.

Yet seeing those fiends in action made me heave a sigh of relief.

If I didn’t take the initiative, take them when they were least prepared, then trying to win them in a fair direct clash would be quite hard.

If I got tens of millions of my Avengers then dealing with these fiends wouldn’t be an issue. However I couldn’t get my hands over such a number or even part of it.

“It seems later on I’ll have to rely on other warriors to stop them…” using the legendary Hescos was an option, but it wasn’t enough.

The number of fiends here was around two up to three millions. Against my one million or less Avengers, they got crushed.

Yet that was all thanks to the element of surprise that helped in killing and wounding at least one fourth of their numbers in the early few minutes.

And when they tried to pull the distance away, another one fourth got killed.

If not for that, these fiends would prove to be much harder to deal with, and my one million Avengers would barely be enough to stop them.

I thought about other situations, where the enemy would be more prepared for my Avengers. They’d try everything first to keep my Avengers busy handling the vanguard troops, before sending the main bulk of their forces to hunt down my Avengers.

Thinking about such a simple and easy to execute tactic made me realise the dangers my precious Avengers would be at.

“I can’t let them take the lead anymore,” I realised. And despite my earlier plans to use them as the tip of the spear, I decided against that at the moment.

These friends proved to be much stronger than I took them for. And I had to adapt or else the end result would be quite severe.

Luckily for me this battle here would take a few hours to get concluded. During that time, I just focused on three things; trying to crack the defensive shields around these fiends, watch the ongoing fights everywhere and learn more about these fiends’ abilities, and finally to find different tactics that could be used in different situations.

If I got to learn something as a fact about these fiends, then in addition to them being strong, they were cunning.

They studied me thoroughly, analysed all the methods I used in my fights, and came up with ways to counter these.

My techniques got negated by these annoying shields, my pillar’s shields got stopped by the clouds, my ground forces of soulers and other mighty warriors got nullified by using the aerial terrain here, and finally they stopped my offensive shields’ strike back at the portal zones using the weird red shields back then.

Not to mention my teleport devices could be never used in such terrain here. Even with the silver ground formed by my Avengers V terrain changing team, I would never risk establishing such a connection at a temporary land.

Except if the situation went south, enough for me to need more help from my zones, I’d never open a portal to this world over my silver ground.

“Hmm… In addition to their special and deadly gears and feathers, they have such a brutal speed that augments their movements and attacks…”

As I kept chasing those tens of thousands of fiends all over the entire battlefield, I kept analysing the enemy as they were doing the same to me.

“Some have instant teleportation ability, and few have the ability to shield others… They have different abilities then, just like my Avengers…”

The more I looked at them, the more I knew how difficult it was to deal with such an enemy.

They weren’t straightforward like the locusts, but they had different abilities like my Avengers and like those Silences.

Unlike the Silences who got their body shape changed according to their type, I wouldn’t be able to tell which ability these fiends got until they started to use them.

“Tsk… That makes it harder to deal with them with only my legendary Hescos… Shall I summon dragons then or what?”

I checked my soul points count. During this time, it increased by one billion only, reaching a total of fifty-three billion.

“If I used these to form normal dragons, then I’d get ten million of them. However they’d just act as simple fodders, flying fodders…”

I kept thinking about my earlier idea about merging both dragons with soulers.

The single souler wouldn’t cost me any extra. I’d just need to spend soul points to keep them alive every day.

I didn’t try to summon soulers before, as I never killed one. But I always had a way out of this, one I just recently discovered.

“I can kill one to gain their soul,” this was the solution for such a problem. All the soulers were following my lead, and the reapers as well.

If I just called one over and killed him, which was something I never did before, then I’d store up their souls inside my class soul list.

Like this, I’d be able to summon and merge them with any other soul. However thanks to their unique nature, I knew it’d be slightly higher in price than the normal five thousand.

“If they ended up costing ten thousand per merge, then I’d be able to summon five million by my current soul count…” I was lost in thought before deciding to give such a method a try.
