I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Chapter 787 The Battling Arena - Part 4

“Time to test these forts,” I knew the battle was going to be decided not at the paths, but at the forests with their posts.

The one to control more posts would win. The one who would keep smashing the enemy’s forts and replace them would win.

Besides… I wanted to see if he upgraded his posts to the same level as mine or not.

“You all, follow me,” I didn’t intend to leave a single monster here anymore. I knew that king would come later, but I had a plan for him when he’d do that.

It was still too early in our battle to use my staff. So I had to depend right now over my monsters to make the difference I needed.

As I moved forward, the first thing I met was the middle path. I had seven monsters here, and one of them was on the verge of dying.

“Go there,” I pointed at the severely wounded one, “kill until you die.”

I planned to create more havoc while pushing the middle path forward. Like this, I’d place more pressure over the king, making him hesitate to move his troops to support which front first.

*Roar!* The monster roared and like a tiger he jumped over the flock of sheep. I didn’t pass without killing lots of them using my glaive, as a single hit created enough impact to send tens of them flying, mostly dead.

I kept waving my glaive right and left until I crossed the path. My other monsters also killed freely as they followed my way.

The path was wide, almost one hundred metres in width.

“Push forward!” as I was in the middle of the path, I raised my glaive and pointed it towards the direction of the king’s castle. My boys roared while green numbers kept flashing over their heads.

My healing ability was doing its magic, and that might be one of the main reasons why they were able to push the enemy so far.

“To the post!” I pointed my glaive while flashing so damn fast. The monsters were all top tier, but they couldn’t match my speed that much.

I reached the post in almost one minute, but had to wait at the outer zone of this fort for the monsters to arrive.

They took one more minute to reach here. And by that, I saw the king reaching his castle zone, and didn’t move out yet.

Well, he got all the reasons in the world to not move right away. What I did at the central path changed the situation drastically there.

The three paths were already ruled by my forces, which were slowly pushing the enemy backward. But when I arrived there, I fiercely hit the enemy and cleared lots of them.

Not to mention I left one monster back there to keep clearing the path.

So in the map, I could see the middle path getting filled with greed dots, moving fast towards the direction of the enemy castle, crossing almost one third of Hector king’s part of the path.

It was apparent that my forces were getting closer to his castle through the middle path. What stopped them were the towers he summoned and filled the paths with.

But with the sheer number of my forces here and the support coming from my healing sacrifice, things looked good so far.

And now I was going to add another source of pressure over this king.

“Attack!” Once the six monsters arrived, I sent them directly towards the tower.

*Swoosh!* *Swoosh!* Swoosh!*

The moment they passed inside the area of effect of that tower, the diamond at its top flashed brightly before releasing successive bronzed rays towards them.

It was the moment of truth. I looked at the monsters around and when I saw them taking the fierce attacks of that tower without dying, I heaved a sigh of relief.

“Keep pushing forward,” I bent my knees, held my glaive and got myself ready to move. I wanted them to cover half the distance first, get closer from that tower before I’d take part in this battle.

I didn’t depend on them to take down this post. I’d tear it down stone by stone using my glaive.

All the monsters needed to do was to act as fodders, distracting the incoming attacks from that post so they wouldn’t hit me.

I had my shield to protect me, but I didn’t want to get delayed. The monsters were sent a few metres to the back each time they got hit with that ray, interrupting their momentum.

Just while they were getting closer to the midpoint of this post zone, the vision ability came again.

“Oh, you decided to come at me and hunt down my boys?” I saw the king coming with lots of red dots that formed a huge red circle around him. “Cool! Let’s see if I’ll destroy it or you’ll arrive here first.”

I didn’t wait anymore and pushed my legs against the ground, travelling fast towards the front, creating a series of afterimages.

When I reached the line of my monsters, the ray started targeting me. But thanks to the momentum and speed I had, the rays passed over, failed to hit me.

I drew closer from that post to notice that it was identical to the ones I summoned before.

“Get the f*ck off my way!” as I reached almost fifty metres close to it, I jumped high in the air. As I did that, I got a direct hit from that ray without any room for evasion.

The only thing I could do was to use my glaive and wave it, releasing thick arcs of lightning and big balls of fire from the clash that erupted.

If I got hit, I’d be sent flying back and wouldn’t reach that tower. I timed the hit of my glaive to come just when the ray touched my shield.

The shield protected me and absorbed most of the impact while my glaive crushed that ray into bronzed wisps of smoke.
