I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Chapter 1784: And So It Started...

As for the Hescos, they were silent all this time. The portal looked as if it was a dead star, without showing any sign of getting activated or anything.

But Hye didn't get fooled by that. He knew the Hescos were biding their time, waiting for the right moment to intervene. And he needed to be extremely sharp about their move, especially when it'd come in the middle of the expectedly heated up battle he'd get involved in.

The news from the small battles reached him in half a day. And what he read in these reports made him grin evilly.

"The Toranks seem quite serious about what's in the caravan, they are using the deadly version of my dark realm bones like they were fighting for their existence…"

The reports spoke about the extreme use of the deadly dark realm bones of his. Nobody couldn't recognise these bones, or the special way to detonate them. But he wouldn't miss that.

He knew the Toranks had lots of his dark realm bones, gathered through long term trades with him. But even so, the amount of dark realm bones wasn't that massive for them to use in such a battle in such careless and carefree ways.

This told Hye how high they valued the caravan as well. And that was great news for him. The more they showed interest in this caravan's precious cargo, the more they'd fight desperately to keep it, the better his odds in getting his hands over this caravan.

Even if he and the Toranks were on the bad side of each other lately, the Toranks would choose him over any other race or entity to secure the caravan's precious cargo if their hands were forced. And his main role was to ensure they'd be cornered heavily, to the extent they'd let him get the cargo and might perhaps facilitate his escape with it as well.

"Now all I need to do is just wait," Hye looked at the incoming intel from everywhere and couldn't help but evilly grin.

The more news he received, the better his odds became. He could already see the bloody battle coming up, and this time he didn't need to go personally at first.

In fact, he used to fight as a spearhead, doing the hardest tasks himself. But this time it was different.

There was a big con in his famous fighting style. Even if he got the ability to make up a huge army out of nothing, he still was limited in the amount of information or the ability to change tactics and pick the right battle to go in.

The moment he acted; it'd be too late to move on to another spot. So, he decided to take a step back this time, and carefully pick the right moment to move out.

At the same time there was something extra, something related to the big plan in his head. To make sure this plan would succeed, he needed to hold himself back and not take part in the early opening in this big war.

"And so it started…" Just as the Selvators leaked, the moment the caravan arrived at the designated spot, the big war erupted. Unlike what everyone expected, unlike what Hye guessed, the war started by a total surprise.

"That's genuinely brilliant and savage at the same time!'' The opening of this battle came from nowhere else but the heart of that spot. Out of the blue, a few stars close to each other detonated. And this was just the start.

"A black hole is formed in the heart of the caravan, now the Toranks have no other option but to force their way out of there… One hit and they turned the table entirely over the Toranks, brilliant!"

Hye could see the formation of the black hole as a direct feed was started. No one knew who owned that channel, but it seemed he was fairly knowledgeable about the Selvator plans. And that told Hye he must be someone belonging to them.

The live broadcast was from a place not that far from the caravan, but it was far enough to secure the life of the one owning the channel. The channel spread like fire in the underground network, and Hye learnt about it fast, just like tons of others who sat their gazes on this battle.

The stars exploded first, then the debris and explosion got merged together in a weird way to form a small black hole. Hye could sniff the fingerprints of the Selvators over the formation of the black hole. And he knew this black hole couldn't be taken lightly.

Even if it was small, it'd keep growing and expanding, absorbing and crushing anything around. Hye didn't need to follow the broadcast to know the Toranks would make the crucial decision and start pushing their way forward.

And the moment that happened, the other forces that kept tailing the caravan finally got their chance to attack.

The Toranks was still a scary behemoth even in front of all these fleets. So no one wanted to sacrifice himself to be the first to start the fight. No one needed to test the Toranks fleets to know how deadly the traps they sat around the caravan were.

But things changed the moment that black hole appeared. The caravan was led in haste as far away from that black hole as possible. And the moment that happened, everyone knew the tight defences the Toranks laid earlier were now useless.

Even the scattered underground pirate fleets started to attack at this point. It was hectic, and Hye couldn't help but sigh at how deadly and vicious such an opening move from the Selvators was.

The Toranks were in a very dangerous position right from the start. The most dangerous trick the Selvators pulled was to let the Toranks drop any prior preparations they made and risk facing the enemies head on.

The Toranks were strong, but in front of all these enemies and without any good defensive measures, Hye was sure they'd fall faster than he thought.
