I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Chapter 327 Basins And Borders

And without any hesitation, I started running towards that path the moment my feet touched the ground.

The monster I hit started to slow down even before crossing half the distance any previous monster did. This came as a result of the continuous clashing against other monsters here.

But that was enough for me to catch up to it.

In fact as I started running into that path, I started waving my glaive right and left without any hesitation. The monsters thrown by the one I hit fell on both sides of that path.

So just one hit from the glaive was enough to smash their heads and kill them. I only had to exert little focus here to aim at their heads.

Hitting a motionless behemoth struggling to stand on the ground? That wasn’t hard even if I was running at my fastest speed.

I ignored all the useless messages coming with each kill. Just as that monster was this close from falling on the ground, I caught up with it and sent another heavy strike at its big body.

*Boom!*

Like I was holding a big wooden club and that monster was my ball, I kept hitting it and throwing it from one direction to another.

The gaps created by that monster were all covered up fast, but not fast enough. After all the sides had dead monsters, interrupting the incoming ones from catching up with me.

I didn’t know for how long I kept doing this. But after some time, I got used to such a technique until I was totally absorbed into it.

I didn’t snap out of my focus until the last monster fell under my glaive. The one I used as a wrecking ball was long dead, and didn’t survive the damage my repeated attacks caused to it.

“Wow! I killed them all!” I stood in the middle of this wide space, feeling a little exhausted from such continuous fighting and killing. I don’t recall the last time I pushed my stamina to such an extent, it seemed like it was ages ago.

“It went smoother than I thought,” I looked around at the great land that was now covered in the dark yellow blood of these monsters, staining the area with this colour instead of the pale green from before.

The number of monsters here was really high! I thought I was fighting against the first group but it seemed I fought against all of them.

“Wow! One thousand and four hundred souls… That’s great!” I looked up at my class and saw the large number of souls that were added there.

My old soul account was sealed, looking in grey colour. But the new one was active, shining in silver light.

Yet it wasn’t that close to the five thousand threshold.

Of course after summoning my first monster, I’d be able to fight much better than this. As I had to rest for a bit, and this test wasn’t limited by any time, I went towards the nearest monster and started to examine it.

“From their size and strength I can say they are level five to eight monsters…” I touched the fur to be shocked with its texture. It didn’t give me any impression of being special, but once I touched it I felt like moving my fingers over sharp needles.

Each single hair of this fur was like a thin and sharp needle. It was dangerous indeed. However, that also meant this fur was more valuable than I thought.

“Time to reap rewards,” I started cutting through the body and got out anything that could be used in forging and making weapons. The fur, the horns, the hooves, and even the tail.

The inside was like a smashed potato, with most of the organs destroyed and ruined. After reaping the benefits from one monster, I jumped to the next and next, until I grabbed materials from all of them.

“Now this region is cleared,” I turned towards the forest around. I stood on the top of the highest point here, on the edge of this green basin, or the basin of death at this moment.

The forest seemed from the first look grand. But as I stood here I realised I was tricked. It wasn’t a forest, but a thick stretch of trees extending for a couple of miles, separating this basin from other basins.

Yes, there were many depressions around my place, then other stretches of trees appeared again before they abruptly stopped and reappeared again.

This wasn’t a forest, but more like an organised area of the world. Basins with monsters and thick areas of trees to keep trapping these monsters inside.

“So each basin will give me one thousand and four hundred souls points… That means I’ll need to clear three more basins to reach my five thousand score… Not that hard.”

I was filled with more confidence. After all this basin fight was a little stressful but it wasn’t that bad. I just didn’t know how long it took for me to clear it.

I was so focused on hitting that monster, chasing after it and killing other monsters falling on the sides. Next time I’d be more careful and attentive to this little detail.

But it wasn’t that important. After all, time here ran differently than the time in the outside world. It wasn’t my first experience dealing with such a thing.

Even if I stayed here for weeks, not much time would pass in the outer world.

As I headed towards the thick border made out of big trees, I started wondering about something.

“I didn’t get any equipment, stat point, skill, or anything at all!”

And that was quite disturbing. I came here to gather up as much loot as possible. Yet all I got were just materials, nothing more.

Don’t tell me I had to clear this test first, get the final score and then I’d have to send in more troops to clear the real dungeon!
