I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Chapter 1240 The Trick Up My Sleeve

I had to make sure they got it. The entire place down there was a danger zone. And she had to keep running with her forces for their lives without looking back.

[How long can you stall them for me?] This is the most important question right now. If she could stall them for a few hours, I could start progressing the attack here to the next level.

After all, this was just the setup for what I planned for them.

[I can't promise you anything] yet unlike what I expected, she didn't give me a direct answer. It seemed she was facing a desperate situation.

Knowing her, I was sure she walked all the way up towards the highest layers without any regard for anything else. So when the enemy appeared, she found herself surrounded from all sides with no way out.

I hoped she kept putting my advice in her mind all this time and didn't just take risks and go ahead without planning a way out.

[Find out how fast you can stall them for me. The longer you can keep them busy, the better]

[Give me half an hour then. I need to see first how many will survive this before seeing how I'm supposed to defend the ground layer with the remaining forces]

[Don't worry about the ground, I already did my preparations there before leaving] that was why I left behind those guys from the research department.

They were assigned to make preparations there for the last stand battle. At the same time, I left many warriors there, led by many fallen gods.

Not to mention I already left two more thousand fallen gods behind to help Sara and her forces in their hastily retreat.

[I just want you to hold out there for at least one day, can you do it?] I needed one day at least to perform the last trick up my sleeve. If she could sustain for that long, then it'd be great.

[I can't promise anything, really not now. Give me few hours before I can give you the final answer]

[Just stay alive for one day. If you can't hold on anymore, just let me know] I still had the staff to use. Before leaving that pit, I saved many spots there for such a moment.

[Deal] this time she didn't give me the crap of not being able to promise anything. I was sure she could live through this for the entire day, if not for more.

I didn't spend all this time fortifying the tunnels and preparing warriors and weapons at the bottom ground for nothing. Besides she got tons of forces on her side, including many warriors, including my deadly fallen gods.

If she behaved well and took the advice of other generals, then things would turn out to be quite easy to handle.

I knew she was an all offensive oriented general. So the turf of retreating and defending wasn't her best point. Yet she wasn't the sole general out there in the army.

After reminding her of this point, I closed the chat and took a deep breath. "It's time to show these Hescos what I'm really capable of!"

I turned my cold gaze around, watching the seemingly endless Hescos trying to come as fast as they could towards my direction.

I took something out of my inventory. When I came here, I knew I wouldn't be able to dominate this place using the five armies, weapons, and warriors on my side.

No matter how strong my warriors were, they needed stat crystals to show their strength. At the same time, my enemies wouldn't let me have it easy to feed my warriors and raise them to the highest level.

So the key to winning this war didn't lie in any force present in this world. I held the item I took before finally activating it.

"Hopefully she'll notice my signal fast enough," I muttered while watching the ticket pass I held in my hand turn into a grand pillar of light.

What I took was nothing else but a pass ticket to another world, the same ticket I used to come here in the first place, or join other worlds as well.

I got enough tickets for the worlds in my apocalypse trial. So using this one ticket would make me run short of one ticket to one world.

And to make it worse, I had to use another ticket to open a channel directly towards here.

"Go there and use this ticket," I handed another ticket to Lucas after summoning him, "go inside and activate that ticket then return here via this portal."

"Got it lord!"

The only solution I tried to get rid of this inevitable side effect was to ask Silverlining before sending me more of these tickets.

He promised to get me more if he could. But that was before the grand battle with the Hescos. After that grandiose win, the attitude Silverlining gave me was enough to make me believe I'd gain not only a few tickets, but a bunch of these.

I just needed a few to make up for situations like the one I had right now. When the pillar of light shone brightly in this world, it could be seen by my enemies.

I knew that long before coming here. The pillars of light produced by these tickets were so grand and eye-catching, hard to be missed by anyone from a far distance away.

That was why I stressed over and over on this point. I asked Lily to be ready to send the other five armies out when she'd get my signal.

And this was the signal I meant.

It would be hard to ignore the sudden appearance of this pillar in my capital. I just hoped Lily had already arranged the other five armies and made them ready to move at any given notice.

Just as the pillar appeared, I noticed the movement of the Hescos had suddenly changed. It was like they were on steroids or something, as they started jumping around like monkeys.

I knew I could have asked Lucas to go and speak with her, but this might lose us precious time.

"I did it, lord," Lucas appeared next and I simply opened a path for him to return back to the base where my warriors and other soulers were.

Then I shifted my attention towards the fight here.

I held my pillar and was ready to use it to activate the shield and protect this pillar for now. But before I'd do anything, I heard a loud clamour noise coming from the direction of the pillar of light.

Then after flashes of light, many soldiers appeared.
