I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

“That’s unfair!”

“That’s bullshit!”

“We won’t sign this!”

Many shouts came in response to my proposal, but I didn’t say but this:

“Then let’s all perish here together.”

“…”

The eerie silence that came next made me more reassured about closing up this deal.

From watching their forces all this time I knew there were around seven to nine archlords here. I took out ten contracts, filled them with the content of our deal, and waited for five more minutes.

“Here are the contracts,” I raised my right hand with them for all of them to see, “I’ll fly over, anyone wanting to sign, just shout and I’ll drop one for you. They are signed by my end, only missing your signatures.”

As I said so, I waited for a couple more minutes before moving out. I moved around and in the first circle, not a single one raised his voice to ask for a contract.

I didn’t hurry them either. After this cycle was over, I moved at a much slower pace this time, letting them all reconsider.

“Throw me one.”

All it needed was for one to ask for a contract. Once one asked, others started rolling in.

I missed four of them in the count. The final archlord count was thirteen. Once I gave them the contracts, they signed and now we have a temporary alliance together.

The races down below belonged to all of the races of the apocalypse, even Hectors were there.

I killed their two paragons, but that didn’t mean I killed all of their forces. The difference of four archlords came from the Hector part that I totally missed.

After doing this, I felt a little relieved. “Attack, let’s smash these eggs together,” I shouted the moment the last archlord signed the contract.

I didn’t need to say that. Just any archlord who signed the contract responded by ordering his forces forward.

With their addition, the speed of clearing these eggs rose up significantly. But in return, many of their forces started to die over the hands of the eggs’ shields.

In fact I doubted they’d have substantial forces after this battle was over. Looking at how these shields grabbed their frontlines and crumbled them into the eggs made me sigh.

We were useless against such a foe. We had to feed these with our forces in order to maintain control over the situation.

But what would that result up at? I frankly didn’t know. I just hoped the energy these eggs would get from their bodies wouldn’t be enough to let them hatch faster than expected.

As time passed by, more eggs were thrown here at a faster pace with each passing minute. At the end of the first half an hour, almost the egg count here reached one million.

Even with all our efforts, the number still reached such a terrifying figure.

“I have to say you are doing a great job here.”

Just as I was thinking about what else to do here, that hegemon bastard spoke up.

“Shut up!”

“Pretty fierce you are! But let’s see how you’ll do in the face of my kids. They are about to hatch, so prepare yourself.”

“Thanks for the tip,” I knew he didn’t volunteer to say so out of good will. He was just making fun of me, just like a useless piece of sh*t watching this going on as fun.

But what he said managed to make me nervous. I lacked anything to do here. All my forces were now attacking from far. I didn’t send in anyone to attack these eggs directly but those are good for nothing fodder.

Even my soulers and Albany city monsters were called back. I lost almost half of these Albany monsters during the brutal fight so far.

The remaining half stood with my soulers, forming a big array that was close to one hundred thousand strong.

They stood all beneath my chariot, waiting for my next orders.

As for my dragons, after they ate these crystals, they restored part of their former strength and activity. They went outside, and started attacking the eggs out there.

The fight was least described as hectic! Inside, outside, everywhere everyone was fighting desperately against these standing still eggs.

But it looked like we were fighting against a mighty tornado, an act of nature that couldn’t be stopped.

*Crack!*

The first egg hatched in a loud noise that left the entire battlefield silent.

From the depths of that egg, a creature started to come out. At first thick limbs started to extend, fix themselves over the ground before expanding up.

It looked like this creature had its body pressured within themselves, like tubes encompassing smaller tubes within, and all were unfolding at the moment.

The end result was a fifty metre tall creature with thin limbs that looked like lances. It gave me the feeling of a gigantic spider first, before it extended its back and showed its head.

“A one-eyed behemoth?” I looked at the ugly and hideous looking face of one eye and no mouth at all. Its skin was emaciated, just the same as the exiles I controlled before.

“…”

Once it appeared, it moved its head around as if it was screaming in silence. A wave crashes over almost instantly, pushing anyone and anything back.

Even my ring of shield that stood erect all this time was pushed back and pressured by this scary dude.

It had a tubular body with a bulging belly and large arching twelve legs. It had no arms, only its legs ended up with sharp spear-like ends.

And they all got inserted deeply in the ground, fixing that damn bastard to enable it to be stable.

“…”

Another shocking wave came and this time it hit my shield.

My chariot’s shield had enough stat points to sustain heavy attacks for one long day. But at this moment, and just with that simple attack, it lost one tenth of its reserve.

Damn! Damn! Damn! One attack did that? One silent scream? Damn that creature!

And the worst was it wasn’t one of a kind. As that one big dude scared all of us and made all of the surviving races here look up at its gigantic body, more started to come out from their eggs.

We… We were doomed!
