I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse-Chapter 1336 Waiting For Half An Hour

[Wait! Don't do that!]

She got how deadly doing this would be. [Make them return or else you do know what they'll face. I won't punish them myself, won't dirty my hands. The enemy will do this for me. They got one hour, and after that I'll recall all my warriors back]

[Ok. just calm down and don't be this mad, ok? They just want to help you]

[Disobeying a direct order? And you dare to call this as a help? Come on!]

What they were doing was the exact definition of doing opposite to what I wanted! Help? Help my ass!

I was totally enraged by what they did. The hit came unexpectedly from my side, which made me feel like everything was working against me.

Their fast retreat was essential in drawing apart the two races from each other. As I got one hour, I decided to add more shields to the zones.

While doing this, I tried to keep myself busy by thinking about how to use this mistake to my advantage.

I knew I got to separate the two races apart from each other by this unexpected move. However as my side delayed all this time, that meant the Silence race wasn't that far away from the locust one.

It might seem bad to my plans, however I got to see some good news in the middle of such a mistake.

First this delay would wipe out any possibility for the enemy to detect anything. Seeing how fierce my forces fought for all this long would make their sudden retreat more likeable to be bought up by the enemy.

And secondly, the point where the enemy forces would split up wasn't going to be too far away from the central zone.

Despite this placed more risks for the enemy troops to catch up with their frontline, but at the same time it'd make it easier for me easily reach there.

When I realised this point, I instantly stopped what I was doing. I already scattered enough shields to keep these zones safe. And now it was time for me to go to the front, save points far away from the central areas.

I left one hour as a threat for my forces to retreat, however I never planned to call back a single warrior back.

It wasn't worth the effort. And I also needed time to travel enough distance and save the points there.

I'd leave two hours for them to come back to the shielded zone. And that meant I had around five minutes for each zone. ƒ𝑟𝙚e𝔀𝗲𝒃n𝒐𝘷𝗲Ɩ.c𝗼𝚖

In five minutes I'd travel across a couple hundred miles. That wasn't anything close to the huge distance of each zone, but at least it'd bring me closer to the point of action later on.

As for what I should do to stop the incoming Silence race at these points, I got a few ideas in my head.

First would be the shields. The shields would be quite effective against the Silence race. But in return for that, I needed to cover up enough area with my shields.

Travelling for hundreds of miles meant I'd have at least one thousand miles to cover using my shields. If I had time, it wouldn't be a problem. But I got no such a thing. 𝘧𝔯e𝗲𝙬ℯ𝙗𝓷o𝘷e𝗹.𝐜𝑜𝒎

So using shields wasn't going to work. My other option was to use my technique. However when I thought about the grand distance I wanted to cover up, I knew how hard this was going to be.

"Then… I should do a mix of all this," I paused while thinking of all the options I had. Trying to mix up the shields with my technique would be quite possible.

However it wasn't going to be enough to stop all of them.

"If I can't stop them all then…" I thought to myself while considering doing something I once did before.

In my mind, an imaginary replay of battles that never took place yet was going on and on. I didn't just have one zone to take care of, but twenty.

And that meant my first and foremost ferocious enemy in this entire battle would be time.

"Hmm… So they are still not back?" When I finished saving up my bookmarks, I moved back to ground zero. And there I found the entire zone void of my retreating forces.

[So even after two hours they didn't return? Give me a good reason to not go right now and kill each and every one of them!]

[They are almost here! Just give them half an hour and they'll all retreat] she paused before adding, [Only your souler general and the five elites you gave to me are back]

[I know] I already met up with Lucas and the other five elites during my jump around the zones. But the remaining zones were still empty.

[Tell me, when I asked you to send them back two hours ago, how long were they from here?]

[They were at least four hours away in normal marching speed] she paused before adding, [They are running for two hours straight. They didn't fight again and kept running all this time]

Hmm… If what she said was the truth, then that meant they were too far away from here to begin with.

Running for hours to come here meant they were at least a few thousand miles away. Giving the enemy time to chase after my forces, then the Silence race would be at least one thousand miles away from the points I already saved before.

"I still don't know how fast those bastards are…" if they moved at a higher speed than my warriors, then it'd be hard for me to guess where they'd be.

I have two options… Either I'd just go to the saved spots and start doing my preparations there. Or… I'd travel forward until I'd meet up with the enemy and start my rushed up plan to stop them.

Doing the first would save me lots of trouble later on. Crossing a thousand miles at normal speed would take at least five hours if not more from such a race.
