I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Even if my suits were strong, they wouldn't be able to counter a force that was three times in size bigger than theirs. And such a gap was increasing in alarming ways.

"What will you do now?" I knew things weren't going as planned, so I looked at the grand battlefield in interest.

If I was there, I'd simply use my technique, take control of as many Hescos as I could, then turn them over their comrades.

Fighting such battles was my turf. But Legend wasn't me, and so I waited and watched in anticipation, wondering what this kid would do next.

And what he did took me by surprise to be honest.

Just when I thought Legend would give up the flying battle, call the drones and suits back, saving as much as he could, something else happened.

The drones that were in the middle of the protection of the suit force started to move. I thought they were going to drop over the entire defensive structure down below, taking away all they could with them.

But what really happened was for the drones to break up into many groups, with few going towards the incoming Hescos. The Hescos once spotted these drones coming close to them started to fire, and many drones were hit and engulfed with flames.

I watched as hundreds of these drones became balls of light in mere seconds. But before the Hescos would turn away their weapons, these balls of light kept moving forward.

"Damn! They are moving towards the Hescos, aiming to detonate in the middle of them!" I looked in awe towards these drones, not knowing how they were able to do such a thing.

This time I knew such a move didn't come from Legend, but from the ones sent by Garry. If anyone knew everything about these drones, then it would be Garry and his people.

The Hescos realised what was going on, tried to fire again in an attempt to detonate these scary drones. However they were one step slower, didn't manage to stop the incoming drones.

Just when the drones came closer, many Hescos tried to flee. But the next second these balls of light expanded, engulfing many Hescos in the middle as they kept expanding.

If I was there, I'd hear a thundering explosive sound, ending up making me and others deaf. In addition to that, seeing such a scene would make anyone look in awe, fear, and respect towards these drones.

Many of the Hescos who came from the deepest zones of these defences were taken down merely by hundreds of drones.

And like a strike of thunder, the overwhelming advantage the Hescos had just was crushed and lost like this. My suits regained the upper hand again, and they started killing more Hescos who seemed to be petrified from what just happened.

Using this period of disarray, the drone started to fly towards more towers, exploding and taking away tons of them.

It seemed perfect, but as I was watching all this from a high vantage point, I knew it wasn't that great. This success was unexpected and cool, but it was still limited.

The number of drones flying over there wasn't enough. Even when the Hescos got paralysed by the sudden kamikaze actions of the drones, the drones couldn't take down lots of towers as I imagined.

I thought they could take out at least one tenth of the entire defensive structure. But as more of that grand structure appeared, I could only hope for two or three percent at most.

If we got lucky, we might push it to five percent.

"Damn! They sent more Hescos again…" just when I was watching the magnitude of damage these drones implied, I noticed the appearance of swarms of Hescos coming from the deeper regions of the defences.

They came in large numbers, dividing up into many groups. Just seeing this made my scalp numb.

At least tens of millions of them were heading that way. "'What? Are they this generous to throw away such a large number of their elites?"

I got confused seeing this. The flying Hescos looked like a special form of the Hescos race. I saw tons of ground Hescos, slightly smaller ground diggers. But flying units were still the fewest out there.

But with such large reinforcements, it looked like these Hescos had a large number of these elites, and they were ready to sacrifice them.

Just as they approached my forces, the drones moved like usual and tried to detonate in the middle of them. Just as the drones got hit, they turned into balls of light and kept approaching the Hescos.

"A shield? Interesting!" almost a hundred metres away from the incoming balls of light, a transparent shield appeared, stopping these drones from getting closer.

All the light balls stopped at a fixed one hundred metre distance, seemingly like they got stuck in the middle of deep sand or sticky liquid. They tried to move forward, but couldn't. And at the same time, the Hescos kept flying forward without lowering their speed or changing their trajectory.

"Wow! They are aiming at mutual destruction…" I could see the two sides getting closer from each other. The Hescos sent a few millions to face off the drones using their shields. And then they kept moving forward, driving them about to explode drones near my suit forces.

It went without saying what they wanted. They just sent a fraction of their forces to take out the annoying drones and suits at the same time. They'd have to pay a large price for that, but it was worth the exchange in my opinion.

If they managed to clear the suits and drones, the imminent threat at their defensive base would be gone. What'd remain though was the attacking ground forces, the ones which were having a brutal fight against the ground and underground Hescos and races at this moment.

As the Hescos came closer, the suit force suddenly broke up, scattered all over the place, buying themselves distance from the incoming threat.
