I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Of course I wasn’t that delighted with Wryly. From this mere conversation with him I knew he and his paragon already knew where that human girl was.

Unlike what he promised to me before, he didn’t inform me about her location at all! That wasn’t something I’d just forgive him and his paragon.

I intended to show them a little rudeness here in response to this. I didn’t like someone lying to me, or taking me as a fool!

In the end I closed the chat with him and opened another.

[I need a digging tools]

[Did you find any suitable mine in your world?]

[No, it’s just for war]

[Hmm… So you faced a hard city by now? Interesting… Aren’t your apocalypse still at quest two or what?]

I wasn’t surprised that Lady green nymph figured out about my current situation. After all, such cities were common in any old apocalypse, like they were common in my time.

[I want an effective bunch of tools, can you provide them to me?]

[Compared to your crazy requests, this one is a simple one] her answer made me heave a sigh of relief, [I can provide one hundred thousand dark gold grade digging tools for you in exchange for five bones]

Five? Come on! My bones weren’t that cheap at all!

[Two bones are enough] I sent back, cutting the price lower than half in one simple move.

[This…]

[One bone is more than enough in my opinion]

[You don’t get it, the tools I’m talking about are beasts in front of any major city… Let me share their description with you]

The next moment a window popped up in front of my face. From what I read, I realised she wasn’t fooling me this time.

[Drillers of demons: Dark gold grade items. Made by Bringold impact. They can dig into the ground, removing tons of dirt in less than ten minutes. Need source of energy to operate]

[So you are providing them with the stats needed to operate them for a week?]

[Damn! Are you going to attack one city or an entire kingdom?!!]

[Just a city]

[Then I can provide enough stat points to run these beasts for three days. I believe this is more than enough]

[Barely] I knew this was more than enough. But who said I wouldn’t reap any possible benefit off this nymph and her impact?

[Alright, let’s make the deal]

The next minute I signed a contract and paid the price she asked for. Five bones were delivered and I received one hundred thousand drilling tools.

I took one out to examine, but the moment I did, a behemoth appeared in front of me, even making my chariot tremble slightly.

My chariot that even the angelic star weapon didn’t make it to flinch trembled when I took that thing out. That was enough proof of how beastly this thing was.

“What the hell is that?!!” The girls jumped to the side out of fear and shock while the jumper asked in a serious tone.

They all had the excuse to act like that. The air this machine emitted was really thick and heavy.

It was like a big bulldozer standing in front of me. It had a cubical body with dozens of thick and arched metallic legs, ending up with sharp spear-like endings.

From the four sides of that giant cube that reached twenty metres length, height, and width, a big thick arching arm came out.

Each arm ended up with cupped hand-like broad endings with sharp edges. The air this machine emitted came mainly from these four arms and the centre of that cube.

Looking closely one could notice a well secured and hidden cavity that was camouflage from the world using colour shifting ores.

That space in the heart of that cube was enough to carry five to ten people at least.

“It’s the tool we are going to use to dig a tunnel underneath this city,” I said in delight, feeling how vital my relationship was with that impact.

“You bought this?” the jumper pointed towards it, “can you give me some?”

“What for?”

“For any future obstacle.”

“Just come and plead for some then when that happens,” I snorted and he gave me a glaring look. I waited for his signature comment, yet he restrained himself this time and didn’t say it.

“So we are going to use this one here to dig underneath that thing?” Isabella asked in doubt, while pointing between my tool and the gigantic wall at the far distance.

“No, I have more than enough to bring that damn wall down,” I said in confidence, “just bring your armies here, arrange them into teams to help in the digging process. Then I’ll provide these tools for you.”

“I hate to say this, but you are truly the worthy enemy of those filthy rich dragons,” the jumper shook his head and his comment made everyone smile or laugh.

“Go and get ready,” I waved my hand while evading this awkward moment, “I’ll take ten hours to get done with something. Be prepared to move once I finish my stuff.”

“Another soft session with your girl again?” The jumper threw such a mean comment, and I simply rolled up my eyes while giving him a much meaner comment.

“What? Interested to swap places with her?”

“Do you want to die?”

“Humph, you are most welcomed to replace her whenever you want,”

“Ooooh sh*t!” Everyone’s eyes were wide open when I said this, yet the first to show such a funny reaction was no one else but Angelica.

“Shut the hell up!” without waiting for her to add anything else, the jumper glared at her and said in such a threatening tone.

You deserved it pal! Continue harassing me and I’d end up biting you back.

As for the ten hours time I asked for, this was for me to listen to the last record about cultivation.

I listened to two records about it, and only the last one remained. I paid nine million coins for it before starting the last session about cultivation from the old man.

Every single info he said was priceless to me. I might have known parts of what he said earlier in the first two records. But this one here I had to admit… Everything was new to me.

I learnt many secrets regarding cultivation. And the most interesting part was about learning cultivation from other races that didn’t suit humans.

After ten hours, I finished that record and understood how things would go at my next cultivation session.

To be honest what he said wasn’t a solution but only stating the problems here.

Humans had an ability to accept many cultivation methods from other races, yet they had a major flaw.

Our bodies couldn’t sustain strong cultivation. For example the highest we could get was the cultivation methods from drags and Berserkers.

Even taking cultivation from these two was dangerous as well. To be safe one had to learn cultivation from a mediocre member of these two races, or else one would risk his body to explode.

The main problem here is related to how the human body treats cultivation. We had meridians, dantian, and gates to organise this big network. But this was limited greatly by our souls.

We had pure souls, yet fragile and weak compared to other races. Our soul quality was high enough to accept any cultivation, yet it was weak enough to not sustain the strong and special cultivation in the universe.

The old man gave an example of himself, stating that his own race cultivation was considered one of the finest cultivations in the entire universe.

But when he tried once to teach the method to a human, that human exploded. The problem wasn’t in the purity of the soul but in its weakness.

Since then the old man never tried to teach anyone his race cultivation. Instead he started to deeply research about this issue and came up with few possible theories to solve this.

One of these theories was to take only a slight portion of the cultivation method. Or learning the early stages and stopping there without going a single step further.

Yet both methods were retarded in my eyes. What was the benefit then from getting a high grade cultivation way and not using it to the fullest?

Another theory of his talked about letting a group learn the single cultivation together to share the burden. It might theoretically work, but it would require this group to always stick together or else they wouldn’t be able to use this cultivation at all.

This wasn’t an option for me. I had my team members here but I’d never think about doing this. Not only were they needed to disperse and work their best to expand my territory, I didn’t like the idea of sharing my cultivation with other people and depending on them entirely to use mine.

This was like getting a deadly weapon yet I wasn’t able to use it unless I had a group to help. I wouldn’t accept this illogical solution.

Yet this one opened a door for me to solve this. My situation was totally different from the old man’s teachings and the regular rules of this universe.

I’d get my cultivation from the bones. That meant I had a way to solve things out, a crazy way but it was logical to me.

But I had to wait until I’d meet up with that system higher up and talk with him about my own theory.

“Oh, you already started the fun!” Just as I finished delving into my thoughts, I noticed loud shots and cries of war coming from many directions.

When I raised my head and took a swift glance, I found a big fighting battle going on all over the place.

The dragons seemed to grow impatient when my armies arrived. I also heard the familiar warcry of Wryly from one direction to see him leading his army and fighting against the dragons.

Yet that dude only brought less than two hundred thousands with him it seemed. The entire battle was all over the place, extending to the horizon in any direction I saw.

“Come forth,” as things reached this scale, I had no hesitation to summon my own forces. “Go berserk and kill as free as you wish,” I gave them a simple order while standing high and mighty on the top of my chariot.

My warriors and summoners roared before jumping off and directly clashing with the enemy. The deadliest of course were the dragons, the soulers, and the lethal fallen gods.

“What are you doing here?” As everyone went to fight, I noticed a bunch of cowards standing on one side of my chariot on the ground, acting as if nothing of this was related to them.

“Answering lord, we didn’t fight until we got the order from you!” one of the illusionists said and I could only sigh. Those bunch of cowards came with my armies and didn’t even raise a single blade against the enemy.

“Go then and kill all of them.” I shouted in an angry tone. What was the use of having hundreds of those cowards? I seriously considered killing them and turning them into useful souls.

Speaking about souls, I checked on my account and found that I gained a staggering million souls since the last battle. My souls were now over three million, enough to summon more fallen gods.

Yet when I turned and looked at the entire battlefield, the current number of fallen gods were more than enough. The single one of those lightning fallen gods was enough to face a medium sized army by himself.

In such an open and chaotic battle, the bunch of fallen gods I had was more than enough.

“Let me keep them for the cultivation process,” I didn’t know if what I had in mind would require some price to pay or not. It was better to be prepared than regret later for wasting these souls here.
