I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Chapter 723 Spotting A Large Army

Chapter 723 Spotting A Large Army

“We will continue east then,” I decided, “when we start our move, let’s send a party here and down there.”

“That’s if there aren’t any more of these holes,” the spearhead sighed, “I just can’t get it out of my mind. How come they make such deep and vast holes without having an army of workers around or even dirt left after digging it?!”

Well, he had a point here. If such holes were dug recently, then where are the signs of the ones who did it? If it was created from something deep inside the ground, then how big would this thing be?

I hoped it wouldn’t be the latter. Or else that would mean there were deadly monsters hiding underneath this damn continent.

“It might be a supreme weapon,” the jumper said, “like that of the angels.”

“Or it might have been here since the early formation of the continent,” Sara added, and I stood in the middle steering my chariot to fly while watching these three exchanging theories about the origins of these holes.

“Or they might have dug it a long time ago, in preparation for the apocalypse. I heard that these races got their people to train to survive the apocalypse from a young age,” the spearhead said in his piece, and the other two kept talking and proposing theories..

I remained all silent, hearing what they had to say without feeling they were close to the truth.

A mighty weapon like that of the angels? If so then why didn’t they use such weapons to stop me and my forces?

The theory that these holes were here all along was interesting. But something told me it was manmade, not something created by nature.

Nature was fierce and marvellous, but it would never create something with such similarity and with the same layout.

Something looked weird here. These holes had a value in the defensive plan of this continent.

I didn’t get any word back from Wryly. If he came, then he would be my friend and ally. Then I should take his opinion about these holes.

If they were defensive plans of the Hectors, then they would have used it in other continents as well.

[Have you ever heard about deep and large looking holes in the continents of the Hectors before?]

[No!]

I thought about asking Fang, yet his answer came swiftly and short, seemingly mad from me to go on such an expedition without considering him.

Well, he was a fierce general of mine, but not the type needed in this small elite force of ours.

Instead he would shine brighter when the armies would push forward and come towards here.

The end result I got was nothing useful. No one had a clear clue about what caused these holes, and the only person with such info was way in my other world.

So I had to wait until we’d start, and go back there to ask her about this.

“Look, boss, there are lots of forces there!”

We kept flying over many towns and cities for another day. The land was filled with tons of cities and towns, an endless number of Hector’s living in such peace and prosperity.

I even found a city built entirely out of golden and silver ores. It looked fascinating from far away, especially with all the statues and decorations covering all over the place.

It had a much bigger wall than all the cities and towns we saw so far. Strong towers scattered across the high walls, with a central big citadel residing over an elevated piece of land in the centre of this city.

Just seeing such a beauty made me crave to get my hands on it. But according to the jumper’s worries, there must be some sort of a defensive shield that could be triggered if an attack happened.

He said he fought over a few towns and small cities before on this continent, and all had the same thing. Not to mention a big portal at the centre of the city or town, serving to flood lots of forces directly towards any area of war.

I got his words for granted, especially when the other two nodded their heads in response. I looked at this marvellous city with desire while we were getting away from it.

Just before I’d awakened from its beauty, the spearhead shouted and broke me free from its spell. He pointed at a direction a couple of tens of miles away from this city.

There I spotted a large group of mountains, spreading right and left, forming something like a natural high wall. In the middle, there was a wide opening, seemingly a vast basin.

And there I saw tons of forces lining up, standing in regular lines, while they had endless lines of golden tents, seemingly for their sleep.

Using my Hawk Eye skill, I managed to see them in the middle of violent training. I saw the hellish training of Lily for my forces before more than once, and this one wasn’t any different.

“Is this the army we are looking for?” Sara asked, and I couldn’t give an affirmative answer.

“From its size and the way they are training, I bet it’s the one we are looking for,” the spearhead said.

“No,” but the jumper shook his head, “this army no matter how big it was isn’t enough.”

“Then…?” Sara looked at the jumper who shrugged and said:

“My best guess is that it’s part of the large army. If we keep moving along this rocky wall, we will find more places like this one here.”

“Let’s scout then,” I got a bad feeling about going directly over such a large force even if I was covered and protected from their senses.

We were four after all, and these should be the elite forces of the Hectors.

As we started exploring this towering rocky wall, we found more places like the first one we spotted as the jumper said.
