I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Chapter 293 Treason!

Everything I could see around the buildings here was filled with such rich green colour. It would be a nice play to live in, but that would be for another time.

As for now, I just landed my chariot in the middle of a group of ancient looking buildings, with one in the middle that gave me a roman empire feeling.

It had many columns and a big dome in its upper part. It must be something iconic for this place, something that lost its significance since the start of the apocalypse.

“Come,” I called forth a few dragons of mine, “go over there and look for the leaders of the group of humans fighting here. I want to meet with them, so bring them on your backs and make sure they stay away from harm.”

“Roar!” My dragons could speak if they wanted to, but it seemed they loved to roar instead of using human tongue. I watched them fly away towards the direction of the ongoing violent clashes while being lost in thought.

This battle… It was supposed to be a nice walk in the garden before. If not only for those damn Hectors, I’d have taken control over these cities here and started merging them together.

Yet things escalated to such tense heights, making me wonder if I lost my luck or what.

[How are things at your part?] As I waited for the dragons to come back with the ones I needed, I sent this message to Hilary.

[Waiting for your message, shall we go into the tunnels now?]

[Not yet] I sighed. This move seemed to take much longer than I expected, [Have everyone come to you yet or what?]

[That lousy girl of yours is here with that cold dude] I knew she was referring to the jumper and Karoline, [But there are still few missing as they said]

[Let’s wait for them then]

[Won’t we attack soon?]

[Things are quite messy here. Just stand by and wait]

I closed the chat and yet my dragons were nowhere to be seen. “Sigh, alright let me check over the other lazy two…”

[Where are your forces buddy?]

Even after the passage of over one hour, Wryly and Fang’s forces were nowhere to be seen. I thought they would take much shorter than that to come to me.

So it looked weird.

[They are all dead!]

[We got ambushed midway by forces of the other archlord]

Yet the two messages I received weren’t the ones I expected. [Don’t tell me you run short on your forces!] I sent two. Even if their forces here got ambushed, they still got one gate each to use.

Why didn’t they send their reinforcements yet? Didn’t they know how important this fight was for the two of them?

[The gates are gone!]

[The entire gates at your place belong to the enemy]

Again they managed to surprise me with their words. Damn! How inefficient a couple of dudes they were!

If one of them was ambushed then it wouldn’t be that weird. But the two of them? And that happened just when I was lashing the butts of those aquatic monsters! How in the world did this happen?

One simple word popped up into my mind; treason! They both were betrayed by their own forces. So simply put, their forces didn’t die, instead they changed coats and decided to join the other archlords.

What? Was their reputation this shallow in their own races? Were they a losing ship? No way!

I already invested so much in these two. They held lots of keys to my future plans. I’d never allow them to go down or break free from me no matter what.

What if their remaining forces changed coats? That wasn’t something I’d bother myself with. Instead of working with these two forces to take control over the city, I’d just work a little harder and much smarter to achieve my goals.

If the two gates here fell already in the other archlords hands, then it would be better to use that to my advantage. There were no allies here in the two cities.

All forces were hostile to each other. But I held one big advantage over any other forces here; I got the Hectors’ Argo.

Anywhere I’d go to, the Hector forces in that area would automatically target me. Like what I did back in Boston, I intended to replicate this also here.

Even if the other three races took notice of my actions, they had nothing else to do. Even if they retreated and fortified themselves heavily behind the walls of their castles, I’d go knocking over their doors and lead the ‘Hector forces all the way to them.

There was only one way out of here, which was to eliminate as many foes as possible from the entire board. Instead of wasting my efforts over this, it was better to use the help of Hectors.

“Why are they taking all this time to come?” After I finished planning out what I was going to do, it felt weird for my dragons to not come here yet.

I looked at the direction of the river again, and this time I totally froze. The river side was filled with strange deadly looking sharp and gigantic lances, all pointing towards the direction of the river side here.

Damn! Those Hectors… Do they still have many aces up their sleeves or what?

“Come forth!” At this moment I didn’t need to hesitate. I simply took out my precious pillar, and with a simple move, it was planted in the ground, half a metre away from me.

“Thundering Might skill,” I softly murmured, activating at last one of the skills of this pillar.

And with a fwoosh, that pillar shone in bright red and yellow light, expanding upward like it was aiming to touch the clouds. But it was stopped by the current shield covering the entire city.

Then something unbelievable just happened!
