I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

When I released the beast from my shields, the entire world started to change.

Instead of darkness, light prevailed! My shields' counterattack started, and it held light to vanquish darkness while I ended up not seeing anything in both cases.

The next moment, I didn't care about anything else anymore and severed the connection with my brutal bones.

The bones already turned into specks of light. And when I stopped absorbing them, they condensated, turning into a smaller version of what they initially were.

If they were miniature in size before, that small size got even smaller. They lost at least half of their mass, and that meant I absorbed half of their energy during the process.

I turned around and all I could see was blinding light. Even if I couldn't see anything outside, I still held my pillar and kept creating more shields.

I didn't know how effective such an attack would be. And if I didn't count the attack which I used my deadly fire to trigger, this one might be called the strongest attack I ever unleashed in my entire life!

The light kept flashing and blinding everything outside for many hours. After almost one day of wait and preparations, the world dimmed at last, and I could see what lies beyond.

"This…" What met my eyes was something crazy and scary!

First of all, almost half of the islands were gone! Fifty islands went into nothing, turned into rocks piled up and thrown away to cover an area of tens of miles.

That wasn't what shocked me. The other half did. The islands that remained were burning at the moment.

White blazing fire, one that I never saw before, was eating everything there, taking all the portals under its reign of terror and death, damaging everything!

Such a scene I never expected to see and never witnessed before. My attack no matter how overbearing it was, it always ended up without leaving behind any remains.

And this time was different! The attack ended and yet it left behind such weird fire.

I tried and tested these islands out, but found to my surprise that these islands weren't working. The portals didn't respond to my approach, not even when I passed over them.

And when I tried to touch one of these portals, everything on that island cracked, broke apart like ash, fell to the ground while that weird white fire didn't die down.

I grew curious, and after breaking all the remaining islands, I returned to observe these fires. They kept dancing around all the rocks and remains of the islands and portals, but didn't seem to truly harm them.

If I wanted to describe what I saw, then this fire was part of the entire rocks around. And that was quite weird.

Did my attack release energy inside these portals and islands? Become part of them? Then why didn't this happen to all of the islands and just half of them?

I didn't know what caused all this, and decided to not seek any answers for now. The only question that I needed to answer was my ability to store such rocks in my inventory.

I was worried that such white and wild looking fire would turn against me and attack when I'd touch it.

I took out my heavy glaive, and tried to poke one of those rocks and touch that fire. The moment the glaive touched it, the fire danced and weirdly enough, it invaded my glaive.

"Damn! It's contagious!" I couldn't believe this and inspected my glaive closely. The fire was limited to the part that touched it, and didn't spread over the glaive or even harm it.

It was like it was part of the glaive itself, while was a bit weird actually.

"Tsk… No time to test or risk testing such a thing here," I didn't want to throw myself at something I'd never accept. And so instead of risking doing something I'd regret later on, I took out my cube and injected my bone energy inside.

Using the full capacity of my cube, the entire place got absorbed and arranged inside cells there.

I didn't need to use the cube more than five times to cover up the entire region here. As for these weird rocks with flames, I'd leave it for my research department to explore, or I'd save it for later after taking care of all the things I had.

After doing this, and after killing such a grand number of deadly weapons, I didn't find it weird to not spot any islands anymore.

Even the forces on the ground started to move out, retreating away from my region.

This was quite expected. The enemy lost big this time. And all the preparations here seemed to depend entirely on these islands and portals.

Losing the islands dealt a deadly blow to the enemy's entire plan. Seeing all these locusts and Silence's retreat made me feel quite proud and relieved.

This was all my doing, and by this the enemy would have to wait for my departure, or even find another way to deal with me.

I wouldn't underestimate such an enemy. They seemed quite resourceful, having tons of hidden cards and weird forces on their behalf.

The incident of the worms was still lurking in my mind. "I don't know if I shall leave a few worms behind to defend the place or what…"

I couldn't tell how they acquired such a scary breed of monsters or if they got more of these worms or not.

But I had to act based on the worst case scenario. If the enemy got more of these worms, then I had to leave something behind for my forces to fight back.

"I got many worms inside my cube… I can leave ten for my forces to help if things go south."

The only drawback of the worms was their lack in aerial abilities. And that made me crave to merge them with a race bloodline, one that could fly.
