I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Chapter 145 [Bonus chapter] The Plan

One thousand was way too much than what we agreed upon from before. That Fang! He wasn’t just aiming to spy on me, he wanted to store up his elites to eat, drink, and rest at my safe city.

What? Did he think I had that city as a resting resort for his boys or what?

[We didn’t agree on one thousand dude!!!] I instantly sent to Fang and without waiting for his excuse on this one, I sent again:

[I’ll use them freely as if they were my men. I hope they cooperate well enough or else…]

[Sure thing, use them as if they are yours]

He didn’t hustle around and that was one of the things I liked about Selvators. They were a direct race, one who didn’t like to fool around like dragons.

“Wassup!” Leo came with everyone else as he greeted me first.

“Do you have any contact with people in New York city?” I ignored him while asking the spearhead.

Out of the people in my team, this dude had his top elites stationed back in the city. They were still mining that ore, and I had to leave them for as long as I could.

“I have a lot,” he answered, “what do you want them to do?”

“A group of Selvators went to the city,” I said, “make them go and meet them.”

“And?”

“Let a few of them add me to their friend list.”

“My men or theirs?” The spearhead seemed a bit lost and I rolled my eyes at his question.

“Both of course,” I didn’t intend to have his men add me as friends, but why not?

“It’s done,” as he said it, I received a long trail of messages notifying me of those who added me as a friend. And I accepted them all.

[Be ready to move according to my instructions] I sent it to one of them and he sent a smiley expression back.

“What do you want now?” The jumper was leaning on the edge of my chariot while giving me a questionable gaze.

“I want to discuss our next move,” I said, “against the dragon archlord.”

“F*ck! Did you say archlord?” Strange enough, the one to ask this wasn’t the jumper, but Alex and Angelica.

These two were once part of the traitors before repenting over. I looked at them in a deep gaze while they welcomed me with a scary one.

Since their return to the chariot, all the girls here gave me a weird gaze, especially Isabella. The spearhead was having that teasing expression over his face as if what I did was something worthy to get mocked over.

But I did nothing wrong, and there was no time to waste on speaking about such useless stuff.

“I’m impressed that you two know about archlords,” the jumper spoke well about my own puzzlement.

“We read few intel before the apocalypse about how deadly strong they were,” Angelica said before Alex explained further:

“The angels told us to not mess with them. They were like lords of the apocalypse, beings beyond our reach and out of competition.”

“Not anymore,” I simply said, “we are going to face that dude next.”

“We are competing against him in the next quest?” The two girls literally screamed in panic at the same time.

“No,” I slowly shook my head, “we’ll clash with that dude during this quest.”

“…”

The two girls’ expressions were clear enough to tell me what they were thinking inside their heads.

“Can anyone tell us first what an archlord is?” Isabella asked and the other two guys and Sara nodded in agreement.

“It’s one of the lords of each race in the apocalypse,” the jumper took the burden to explain, “he leads a lot of forces, has a lot of treasure and wealth from the beginning. Facing him means we are going to face armies, not only a single army.”

“Can we beat him?” the spearhead asked in doubt.

And the jumper didn’t answer that as he turned to look at me.

“We have a chance if we play it right,” I said before adding, “from what I learnt from Fang about that dude, he just lost big at the central zone of this continent. He ran over here to recuperate and build up his forces again.”

“So he is weakened?” Leo jumped to the same conclusion I had before, “we should hit him sooner than later then.”

“Don’t underestimate the archlords,” the jumper’s cold voice was enough to snap Leo out of his daydreams, “any single one of them is a real behemoth even if he is like that Selvator said.”

The jumper then turned to me as he added:

“If he is this weak, why didn’t that Selvator go and hit him?”

“I’m the one who wants to kill that dude,” I shrugged and my answer left even the jumper speechless.

“Are you out of your damn mind!!!” then after a long moment of peace, he exploded in such rage, “that is insane! Literally insane!!”

“We have to kill that dude if we want to expand safely later on,” I said without delving too much into my futuristic plans, “he is a tough rock to crack, but we can do it. After all, we aren’t alone in this fight.”

“That Fang dude is going to participate?” the spearhead asked, “so that’s why he sent over one thousand of his men to hide in our back city?”

I didn’t show any signs of agreeing or rejection, as I only smiled. “That’s not important for now. Let me first explain what I learnt about that dude from Fang…”

I threw everything I learnt from the old man over the shoulders of Fang. “That dude has his own support through a big portal linking our world with his family base.”

“So we have to shut it down?” Sara asked.

“I suppose you know where that portal is, right?’ Isabella asked and I nodded, then shook my head.

“The exact location isn’t clear yet, but Fang is working on it,” this wasn’t true. As Fang didn’t know exactly where that portal was. He even didn’t know about that portal at all, or simply hid that info from me.

“So?” the jumper said in his cold tone, “you want to just invade his territory and search for it?”

“Doing this isn’t going to work,” I shook my head, “his forces are large. And even if we manage to kill most of them, he will simply ask for more reinforcements, leaving all our efforts to rot.”

“Then…” this wasn’t just the sceptical reaction from Angelica, as I saw the same reaction over everyone.

“We’ll do it to lure the tiger away from his den plan,” I said before further explaining part of my thoughts.

I took roughly half an hour explaining what we shall do. I also didn’t hide the information of the relation between that killed dragon leader from earlier and that dragon archlord.

“So we are going to face his retaliation no matter when or where,” Isabella sighed, “I agree with your plan. It’s risky but at least we will answer his threat more actively.”

“I also agree,” Leo’s response was expected. As a gamer, nothing was more appealing than a good fight and a good opponent.

“I have nothing to say,” the jumper shrugged, “you are a crazy dude, I give you that. But thinking about the inevitable clash with that dragon bastard, then it’s better to hit him now.”

“I have no objection,” the spearhead shook his head in a helpless way.

“What about you two?” I looked at Alex and Angelica. Both seemed terrified to even speak their thoughts or think rationally about this.

“Why should we object or agree?” Alex bitterly said, “most of us already are agreeing over this crazy thing.”

“If it was up to me,” Angelica added, “I would prefer to run as far away as possible from his reach. That’s the only safe way to escape that archlord.”

“We can’t do that,” I shook my head, “we have great things to do here. Leaving everything behind and doing it from scratch isn’t a feasible plan. Plus that dude is crazy like any dragon. Who can guarantee he won’t hunt us till the end of the world? It’s better to kill him, after all a dead dragon is the most harmless dragon ever.”

The two girls weren’t that convinced but Sara said in high spirit:

“Let’s do our best. The worst thing will be our loss and retreat back to New York city or even run away to the north or south.”

“We won’t lose,” I didn’t like that tone in her words even though she meant good, “we will do our best and win.”

“Provided that Fang won’t chicken away,” the jumper said a mean comment just like usual.

“We will win this,” I ignored what he said, “just start phase one of the plan. Isabella will draw the map of the parts around here. You are familiar with this region, right?”

“I can help,” Leo raised his hand as if we were in a class or something. “I’m from around after all.”

“You two do it then,” I didn’t mind his help, “after that you’ll start spreading over the area.”

“What about you?” the jumper asked. “Where will you hit?”

“I won’t,” I shook my head, “my role will start in phase two.”

“You…”

I rolled my eyes at him. Come one dude, don’t say that phase one was harder than phase two!

“What about Karoline?” he didn’t let my girl off as expected, “will you two stay here and have fun?”

“I…” Karoline raised her head to answer him but I placed my finger over her lips to silence her.

“She will stay with me,” I declared loud and clear, “after all the angels are targeting her. The safest place for her is on my side.”

“This…”

“Just do your role at this phase,” I stopped the jumper from adding fuel to the fire he was trying hard to ignite, “phase two is all on our two shoulders,” I pushed Karoline closer as she nestled inside my embrace, “be ready to come when phase three starts.”

“Don’t just die,” the jumper snorted, “out of exhaustion you two.”

“F*ck you!” I answered his mean comment with a curse. The team didn’t immediately leave as Isabella and Leo started to draw the map of the region first.

“I’ll take that way,” Leo pointed in one direction towards the north while he looked at Angelica and Alex.

“We’ll come,” Angelica said in a helpless tone while Alex kept looking at me in hesitation.

I knew she wanted to stay back, but if I kept everyone behind then we wouldn’t move a single inch forward in this plan!

“I’ll take this one,” the spearhead pointed at the south, “and Isabella will join me.”

“Who said I’ll come?” she said in an annoyed tone but she didn’t specify anything else as expected.

“Then I’ll take this one,” Sara said while looking at me, “I’ll need more forces to help so…” she rolled her eyes towards the jumper who coldly said:

“I prefer to go alone,” this dude was really a ticking bomb if I left him with Sara.

“You two will take the west then,” I said, “the north and south have the support of the Selvators, but the west is the most dangerous place. Be sure to stay close to each other and don’t hesitate to call for help.”

“What about our forces? Will I take my men?” Leo asked and I simply shook my head in rejection.

Dude! When would you learn that they weren’t your people since you joined me?

“I’ve already sent for reinforcements from New York,” I said before adding, “each one of you will lead a force of two thousands. Your task is to dominate as many counties as possible.”

“What about cities?” the jumper asked.
