I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Chapter 1208 I Got Lucky

"We are ready," all the generals stood by my side, waiting for me to make my move. I looked at Sara before turning to Lily and said:

"If the next world is part of the Hescos, then Sara and the general you selected will go. I believe you prepared a good plan for that battle, right?"

Lily's face twisted a little, took a silent gaze up at Sara without saying anything. I got what she meant, it seemed Sara was very stubborn to listen to any tactic imposed by Lily and others.

"That's why there are two generals and not one," I reminded Lily, Sara, and others about this. I didn't promise to send just one but two generals out there for that reason.

Any general, any person would have one stable and fixed character. Personalities wouldn't change, even if they got hammered hard like that jerk, they were unable to change what they were born and raised upon to be.

So using two generals was the best tactic to overcome such unavoidable weakness. One general would act as a sword, and the other would be the shield.

Like that, even if I sent someone that was obsessed with offence like Sara, using a tactic minded general by her side would cover up her shortcomings.

Of course trying to dream about that general's ability to change Sara's way of doing things would be futile and hopeless. His role was to cover up her mistakes, not making them impact the entire battle.

"I see..." the eyes of Lily shone brighter when she heard my words. She seemed to not get my point from the start. But now she realised what I planned.

She looked at one general in an apologetic way. It seemed she selected someone wrongly based on her misconception. She then turned to another and he nodded at her.

She just changed the roster of the general joining the expedition without any issues. I admired her spirit, such character was priceless to my kingdom.

"As you are ready, let's start then," I took out a ticket before adding, "if the next world is a normal one, two other generals will lead the expedition there."

No one answered back as it wasn't needed. I simply activated the ticket, opening a portal to the next world before a vanguard unit moved into it.

Using the feed from that world, I could now see what was inside. The world was one that was filled with broken towns and cities, ruins everywhere.

It looked like a typical picture of the apocalypse alongside many completed dens. I saw no shadow of a being there except for zombies.

"It's a broken world with many zombie dens," I simply stated this and my generals sprinted into action.

Loran sent groups of his people down that world to claim the dens. Two generals walked through the portal with their armies. The research department didn't send anything out there, and I kept my warriors in wait as well.

"Next," this time I wasn't interested in watching the fight. This world might prove challenging at first, but once my generals controlled the towns and cities there, and Loran's men turned the dens into orbs, this world would be like a breeze.

Without any delay I activated one ticket after another. Worlds filled with zombies, other races but Hescos, and monsters appeared one by one. After opening seven worlds in a row, I felt like my luck was pretty good this time.

Lily kept sending generals in pairs to these worlds. At first the atmosphere around was chilling and heavy. Yet after opening seven safe tickets, that tension loosened.

However, the eighth ticket didn't show the same luck as before.

Even after seven lucky tries, I never loosened my guard. I kept sending vanguard units first, scouring the entire world there before making a decision about the next move.

The moment the eight vanguard unit entered that world, I saw a grand scene of armies waiting out there. The sky was filled to the brim with people wearing suits in different colours, and the ground was endlessly covered with ground forces.

Grand towers stood around, alongside formidable looking walls and a complicated set of defences.

When I looked closer, I could see the defensive structure out there slightly different than the one we crushed before.

This one was similar from the first look, with the main difference of the arrangement of walls.

The previous complicated set of defences was built like a grand city. Unlike that, this structure looked like layers separated by walls.

Each outer layer was built over slightly higher ground than the inner one. Looking at this setting from high above made it look like I was watching a grand circular mountain with a central huge hole with defences built on its slope.

It looked scary, especially when that mountain didn't show any sign of stopping at the horizon. I got the feeling that the edges of this grand setting were going to touch the pillars of the distant sky if this kept going on for the end of the world.

There were two possible scenarios for this; either the Hescos built a grand mountain-like structure to be like this or they dug the ground to do such an unbelievable thing.

For me, the second option seemed more logical. The Hescos had the ground digger forces and they could transform any terrain fast and without much ado.

It would be easier to dig the ground for miles and form such an amazing scene and change the entire terrain of this part of the world.

No matter how amazed I was, I knew this was simply bad news for me and my forces.

The vanguard unit once stepped there couldn't live for more than one minute. Different types of attacks landed and obliterated their bodies within a few seconds, ending up killing the entire squad of ten thousand in no time.

In the middle of all these attacks I spotted new weapons used. "They are using tech based weapons and much fiercer gear to defend this place," this was worse news without doubt.
