I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Chapter 1169 Standstill Situation

But as they were coming near my apaches for the third clash, a new weapon appeared in this heated up battle; rocket launchers.

Rocket launchers were deadly weapons best suited for long ranged attacks. But to my shock, the grand general there seemed to have another idea.

He slightly shifted their position prior to all this, aiming the muzzles of these rocket launchers towards the flying Hescos.

As the Hescos were flying in tight formation, fearing to break up and ending entangled solo against my scary apaches, they made themselves easy targets for my rocket launchers.

Dealing with the hampies and their lethal cannons was easy with tight formation. Like this, only few would sacrifice themselves at the forefront and shield the incoming rays of attacks from these hampies.

That tight formation might be ideal to deal with hampies, but it was pretty bad in the face of rockets.

The rockets exploded and their aftermath stormed at many of the Hescos. As they were flying close from each other, too many got engulfed with the rocket's explosions, ending up losing too much.

Their formation scrambled, and the apaches didn't let this chance slip by. The apaches this time didn't take an evasive course, and headed directly towards the disarrayed Hescos.

As the two sides clashed, Hescos didn't have enough time to attack and they did their best to evade for the second time. Just as they tried to do so, they ended up with a widely dispersed formation, making it so hard to gather up together anytime soon.

Under such circumstances, the apaches boarded fighters and the ground hampies started to rain down their fire, hunting down the separated Hescos and killing lots in the process.

As the aerial battle entered such a crucial and heated up stage, the ground battle in the two zones also came to a heated stage.

Unlike the aerial battle, the ground battle near the portal zone was following the simple logic of any war. The arrival of my warriors toppled the plans of the Hescos and managed to stop their advance to a great degree.

The Hescos tried their best to kill their way through. But as more warriors were passing from the portal and joining the fray in all directions, the Hescos found it much harder to walk through their enemies with the passing of more time.

Just like my warriors, more Hescos were joining the fray from the direction of the circular hole. But no matter how many they threw at the fire of battle, they didn't manage to claim anything but to push my warriors behind for hundreds of metres at most.

Then when the aerial battle entered such a desperate situation for the Hescos, their ground troops also were stopped and now the assault turned into a direct clash between two sides.

Hescos were fighting against my warriors, and so they were now facing hard foes to kill. My warriors got cultivation bases, and their stat points were maxed out.

So on paper, despite the Hescos looking mighty and terrifying, they couldn't do anything to my warriors. And my warriors had the ability to wound and kill them.

Without the need to have any foresight ability, anyone could tell that the end of this battle would be my forces' win.

The aerial battle was dire and the Hescos were in bad shape right now. Without the pressure exerted from the ground, the aerial forces would get annihilated soon. And once that happened, the forces fighting these aerial Hescos would shift their weapons towards the ground, killing the ground Hescos at a much faster pace.

The same could be said for the ground Hescos as well. Without the help of their aerial forces, the Hescos were doomed to be killed. Even if the battle on the ground magically ended earlier than the aerial one, the flying Hescos would end up surrounded by many forces and wouldn't have any way to run away with their lives.

As for the faraway battle, the joining of the suit forces in full formation placed a great pressure over there. The flying Hescos who first made a great change to the battle out there couldn't show their strength anymore.

And the ground Hescos coming out in large numbers didn't gain much advantage. Even if they were dealing with weak forces, ones that couldn't pressure them, the Hescos couldn't gain much land as the flying suits managed to intercept and stop them effectively.

Ten thousand suits were enough to deal with hundreds of thousands of Hescos before. So when hundreds of thousands of suit forces appeared, the result was quite expected.

The sneaky assault planned by the Hescos to stop the weapons didn't achieve anything at all. They aimed to destroy the weapons back there, at least keeping them busy from hitting the incoming Hescos from outside.

But the end result was indeed shockingly disappointing for them. My forces handled the assault brought by the inner hole perfectly fine, and the weapons kept launching their deadly fire towards the distant Hescos.

The inner battle was going to my favour, and the middle battle was already under control of my suit forces. The outer forces were still fighting useless races while the distant Hescos kept getting killed and wounded at a scary rate.

The only ones doing great on the Hescos side were the ones escaping the tight defensive nets applied by my forces. The deadliest of those were the ones reaching the outermost lines of defence of my forces, escaping the deadly missiles and rockets landing at them while coming from outside.

Aside from these scarce groups of Hescos, the ones inside weren't doing this great. I watched closely for long hours, without thinking even to start opening another ticket passage.

This battle wasn't just a simple battle. This was the first encounter with the Hescos. Our victory here would be enough to boost my forces morale and place great pressure over the Hescos.

I knew this wasn't going to be the last battle with Hescos. Much more battles like this one would appear from now on. But this one held much more weight to it than all the other battles combined.
