I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse - Chapter 1394: What To Do?
Chapter 1394: What To Do?
My technique worked against races’ souls, and that Exomachines gave me the impression they got no soul at all. Or perhaps they got one that was like the AI humans invented, something that couldn’t be accessed using the normal methods dealing with souls.
These two were bad news for me. Not to mention that wasn’t the real trouble here.
Sara told me that she felt as if these Exomachines were trying to prevent us from getting out, entrapping us inside. But she was wrong!
I got why the enemy wanted to desperately kill her in such a way. The crux of this all lay in the deep holes which were lined up by the Exomachines.
The Exomanchines weren’t trying to entrap us, but they were defending any assault at these holes.
And these holes weren’t that weird or alien to me. I already saw and met the ones who created these before. In the early stages of the apocalypse, and just while I was trying to get out of Manhattan, I met these fierce and scary creatures.
The Earth Worms! The grand worms which were enough to turn any continent into a beehive filled with holes and devoid of any life!
This was supposed to be a far away quest, one that wasn’t any less than the impact of the zombies in the fifth quest.
These worms were quite scary! And the deadliest thing about them lied in the inability to detect their presence until they’d emerge from the deep layers of the ground.
They could penetrate through anything, literally anything! No defences could stop them, even my Avengers’ silver ground wouldn’t be able to stop them.
Even the mighty shields that looked eternal would experience its first failure on their hands! This was how scary these dudes were.
And the scariest thing about them was the fact that the enemy brought huge amounts of them here. Just in the zone I could see from my high vantage point, and I could see for tens of miles in both directions, I saw endless holes neatly arranged one near the other, one in front of the other.
They turned an entire zone of tens of miles into something that looked like a beehive. And that meant the number of these worms was beyond anyone’s imagination.
Damn! What were the weaknesses of these worms? That was something I once read about in the ancient records, but it was something from a long time ago.
I squeezed my brain while trying to get the right method to deal with such a terrifying enemy. I didn’t care how or when the enemy got such terrifying and formidable worms.
All I cared about right now was how to stop such terrifying monsters from foiling my plans.
“I recall they were vulnerable to elements… Fire and ice were the deadliest things against them, and Earth was their turf and weakness as well…”
I finally started to recall news about these monsters. But my intel stopped just there.
“Tsk! If I got to use something to stop them, then I’d use my Avengers then…” I got Avengers II as my magician who can control different elements.<novelnext>please visit panda(-)N0ve1.co)m</novelnext>
Per their words, I got to know that they could use any form of element as long as I’d give each five bones to use.
That wasn’t the problem, the problem lied in their number. I only got two hundred thousands of them, and that was indeed something not enough to stop these worms.
Two hundreds of thousands against tens or even hundreds of millions of worms? That was insanely suicidal!
Not to mention the enemy already got the help of his Exomachines to defend these worms.
For now these Exomachines were standing here, protecting the holes and allowing the worms to dig their paths under the ground freely and without my notice.
But when the worms would strike, it’d be a total disaster! The enemy would open the gates of hell, send everything they got at my forces.
And for a reason I felt that these Exomachines would be tasked with defending the worms. For a point, the worms would find more space to kill and spread their chaos under the protection of these Exomachines.
And from another, the worms would provide perfect support and protection for these precious Exomachines against any forces of mine.
Tsk! How come things turned this ugly all this sudden? I couldn’t tell how the enemy found such a scary tactic to begin with.
But this alone changed the entire plans of mine, the entire progress of war.
pA(nD)A no ve1 I thought taking down this zone would be easy, and then my forces led by Isac would lay down a foolproof series of defences.
However, that proved to be quite wrong! I greatly underestimated my enemy. And right now, if I managed to clear these threats and established a base here before the opening of the twenty worlds then I’d be quite lucky.
It wasn’t time to freak out, I had to count down my strength points and deadly weapons, and try to find the suitable forces to use against such scary enemies.
Putting my limited number of Avengers II on the side for now, I got the star arrays as a start.
These arrays were quite deadly. Not to mention the shields of mine couldn’t stop the worms alone, but if I activated the offensive ability of them, then they could kill a good number of them, or heavily wound them at least.
I got around sixty million soulers and reapers, armed up with full sets of gears. If I added the entire gears I got so far, including the ones coming from the tens of millions of fiends fighting Sara and her soulers right now, then I could double this number while using a strong melee race like Hectors and Berserkers.
When I thought about this, I knew it was better to use Hector’s, not Berserkers. Despite the latter were war machines, addicted to fighting, quite strong in that regard, but they lacked any skills related to any element.
