I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Chapter 1584 Tell Me Everything

”Stay away from me! You canʼt touch me! My father will kill all of you! Stop it…”

And just after I said this, all of them started to attack. They all targeted that jerk, and Hulk screamed like a pussy before he fell under the deadly attacks of them.

And like this the chapter of the leader of the Hescos forces here ended, in quite a tragic and most bitter way.

He didnʼt fall in a glorious battle, didnʼt fall on the hands of his sworn enemies, but on the hands of his people.

What a bad, terribly bad end this man got. But he deserved it, and I hoped Iʼd never get such an end one day.

It was better for me to fall into the hands of my enemies, fighting a scary and terrifying war, while trying to defend my kingdom and universe.

This was the most heroic fate Iʼd dream of, any proper fighter would dream of.

I watched this pathetic Hulk fall on the hands of his people. It wasnʼt a surprise that after his death, the shield that surrounded all of them vanished.

I already gave my orders for my warriors to stop attacking this bubble the moment I stepped up to talk to the people inside.

”Lord, we salute you,” they all knelt on one knee, lowered their heads, while extending a weird ring.

”Sign these contracts first,” I spread over contracts, ”is this the ring that brought such shields up?”

”Yes lord,” one answered, ”itʼs a high grade artefact that can form an eternal shield.”

”Eternal shield? Interesting,” I got the ring and inspected its content. As this dude said, this was a high grade artefact, one that could form a shield that could last forever.

In essence, it was like the shields formed by my pillar, able to last forever. But this one didnʼt absorb any energy, and didnʼt have any risk of getting crushed.

It was a shield that could appear and stay there till the end of time. It couldnʼt be broken down, no matter how hard the enemy was, no matter how damaged it suffered.

That made me realise I got a bit lucky here. And now I understood part of Hulkʼs earlier arrogant attitude and weird confidence.

He seemed to see himself standing here, without the risk of losing his life. But that dude missed a simple and yet crucial thing here.

This war wasnʼt going to be won by whoever would survive the longest! Standing just in place without doing anything wasnʼt by any means a heroic or great deed.

That was part of the reasons why Hulk lost the trust of his people. Not to mention the deep grudges these folks held towards their race in the first place. Adding everything up resulted in that dudeʼs pathetic fate.

He got a shield that could protect himself from any danger, external but not internal.

Heʼd never expected that the ones he took with and entrapped inside this prison-like shield were the ones who were going to end his life.

The shield was indeed quite scary and useful, but it had many limitations.

First the area it covered was already too little to begin with, enough only to surround half a mile radius at most. That wasnʼt enough to surround and protect my forces, not enough to let the ring replace my pillar in the first place.

And there was another weak point about this. Once used, it couldnʼt be mobilised! And that meant once I used the ring, the shield itʼd form was going to stay in its place until Iʼd say otherwise.

That was… one of the most terrible points of any shield in my eyes. Of course my pillar shields were also the same, but at least they covered tens of miles and could even cover up hundreds, even thousands, as they could grow by adding my shields to them.

But this ringʼs shield couldnʼt do any of that. And as it was mainly designed for personal use, as some sort of personal protective shield, it got the worst feature of all.

Unlike my chariotʼs shield, the one that could move around with me and travel at high speed, this one here couldnʼt. And even if I stood on the chariot and moved, not by myself but by my chariot, the shield wouldnʼt follow me around and would stick in its place, letting me get out from it.

But it wasnʼt that useless. At some point, I might face a terrible danger, and would need a place to hide and think about my next move. Or I could let it shield me inside, while Iʼd use my staff and leave that place to another safer spot.

It was useful, but not that useful as a high grade artefact or something.

”Lord, what shall we do now?” as they signed my loyalty contracts, they now were mine.

”Well, letʼs first speak about your plans,” I paused, ”I mean your race plans about this world.”

”Sure,” and against what I expected, not a single one of them even hesitated and they all started to speak about the Hescos plans.

As I guessed it before, the Hescos used their relation with the system higher ups and secured themselves a detailed map of this world. It wasnʼt like the one I got from the higher up before, but one that got every single place of the races and enemies marked on it.

I was surprised to hear about the existence of such a map. It was so damn detailed to even update itself about the location of anyone over it once per hour.

That was how they managed to spot me before. In fact, they were tracking everyone in this world, knowing what each force was doing, and even assessing their progress.

From their words I got to learn that Hulk wasnʼt the general leader as he claimed before, not the one who was going to be assigned as a king of this world after the end of this war.
