I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Was this the effect of absorbing just a few territories from before? Damn! Like this I might end up having a thousand miles of land, or even more.

However the great news ended just here. As I rose high up, I could see the early lines of the drawing armies towards here.

“So they are just upon us,” I muttered while moving my eyes around the incoming enemies.

I got the drawings and instructions left for me by Zangibar. They were about how to build walls, towers, and all kinds of defensive structures.

However these would take a long time to execute. I was sure that all of these forces would attack once arriving at my land.

They’d be fools if they didn’t. There was no one protecting my land, none except for my little lizard.

And now I got my little turtle as well. Yet who said both of them were enough alone?

“Come forth!” I had no time to summon any other forces here. The army I got had an important task of going to all these fifteen lords’ lands and starting banging fiercely over their doors.

So I couldn’t just summon them back. Doing this would end up messing my entire plan.

After all they weren’t just going to fight these lords and the few forces with them. They had another big and far important mission by doing this, one that would show its worth in the next few hours.

By any means, I was alone and on my own here. And as my land increased in such a way, I got to summon more forces here.

The ones I asked Zangibar to bring from my second Earth joined our forces when I was having the negotiations with the two lords before.

These forces came when I added a couple territories to mine. And now as I added more, I was sure I could summon more soulers.

“Two hundred thousands… Not half bad,” I looked at the army appearing here. If not for the important task I left over for Lucas I’d call him here to lead this army.

But I got five elites to use.

“You will each lead forty thousand,” I said to the five standing on top of my chariot, “and go forward, never stop, never look back, and don’t worry about any losses. I’ll be watching from behind and replenishing any lost forces.”

“Thanks lord.”

“We won’t disappoint lord.”

“I’ll show lord the mightiness of our race.”

Three spoke and the other two just nodded. I waved my glaive and they descended fast towards the ground. They got the same fire around them, but it wasn’t anything like Lucas’.

I only regretted not having the time or resources to raise all of these soulers up using stat points. All I could do was to just bid my time here and try to stall for time.

When the lords would get attacked with my forces, they’d frantically send for their forces to come back. This would relieve the current threat from my land.

And then I’d jump over and hunt most of these lords before their forces would come here.

But that all depended on stopping this grand army of millions by using the two hundred thousands I got.

“Dark lord… What do you want me to do?” and just as the five elite soulers led each of their armies towards a different direction, my little turtle asked.

“Yes lord, what shall I do?” and with it speaking, my little lizard asked as well.

“You two will break free, use whatever you have to crush and kill as many as you can,” I said in such a vicious tone, “and I’ll be standing all behind you, watching your backs, and interfering at the right time…”

I said while taking out my pillar. I didn’t know if it was going to do its magic in the same fierceness I used or not. But in such a battle, anything must be used for my benefit.

“Attack!”

“There are only a few troops left here!”

“Their lord is here! Don’t let him escape!”

“Surround this damn place and let’s go all in.”

“There aren’t any defensive buildings at all! This land is going down pretty fast!”

*Rumble!*

And just as such shouts came louder and louder from the direction of the grand army crawling towards me, I used my pillar’s skill.

“Thundering might!”

And in a flash, the world rumbled before a massive dome appeared. Damn! This time… My pillar’s skill… It showed a fierce side I never saw before!

When I used this skill, the pillar would break free and expand, connecting heaven with ground, before releasing a dome shaped shield.

It used to cover a distance of tens of miles in an instant. But this time, things happened in a different scenario.

It broke free indeed, but it didn’t expand. It simply kept shining, releasing a massive amount of light that started to spread and envelop my territory and forces inside.

In a flash, the world all around became covered in a faint gold layer that looked dazzling to anyone from far. At the same time, the shield that appeared was also pale gold, while covering up all the territory I got here.

And that wasn’t all!

Another shield appeared, then another, and another. It looked like with each flare up of that pillar’s golden light, a new layer would be added.

The layers were all thin, but I could see them clearly appear on top of each other.

I counted fifty before the pillar stopped. It kept shining and didn’t pulsate like before. And it stood in midair, refusing to come back to me.

“What happened to you, my old friend?!” I looked in such puzzlement before different groups of the enemies tried to attack and test this shield.

*Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!*

I saw everything clearly with my eyes. With the attack landing, one layer got all the damage from hundreds of thousands, getting smashed and crushed all down in one instant.
