I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

In my eyes, those monsters were running fast away from the fire. The zone I started the fire at was now turning wild, blazing fiercely with fire.

The trees there turned pitch black while the ground kept raising thick wisps of black smoke. It was almost the moment for me to start my second phase of my plan.

I took out something from my inventory. Before doing all this, I checked and made sure the liquor wasn't considered a special item.

After all it was an item to store water, something that was impossible to be considered special.

I held it with one hand, and used my hawkeye skill to make sure the fire extended almost all the way to the next basin.

Then I recalled my shield, held my liquor in one hand and my light glaive with the other… and started running.

*Fwoosh!* *Fwoosh!*

"Damn you!" Just as I entered, I was welcomed with many darts. Yet these came from much further away, leading to their late arrival.

As they just kept flying past my body, I finally got more courage and pressed forward.

The first couple hundred metres didn't show any threatening heat, but after that it was literally like hell. Without even slowing down, I opened my liquor and started to pour water over the ground.

*Swoosh!* *Swoosh!* *Swoosh!*

The water once touching the burning ground released a thick bellow of white vapour. It was so thick that it even covered my body, hiding me from the relentless monsters.

I could feel their attack becoming sluggish, disturbed over the wide area of white fog that surrounded me. Luckily they weren't that smart or else they would easily guess my location.

Shrouded with such white mist, I kept moving forward. The mist also hindered my vision, but I moved without slowing down, depending on my memory to bypass the trees in front of me.

Yet I got pumped into a few trees during this run, only to avoid them at the last moment.

The distance I thought it'd take ten minutes to cover took me almost one hour. I didn't know why, but the area kept extending up front until I doubted I was running in circles or something.

But when I was met with a cold breeze of air, I finally knew I entered the basin.

*Roar!*

Just jumping from the frying pan into the fire, I was welcomed with mighty roars that came from all the monsters around the edge of this basin.

"No time even to catch my breaths," I instantly poured the water over my body, trying to cool the heat off fast, before I stored the liquor item away.

I also swapped my glaives. Holding the heavy glaive in both hands, I was ready to welcome another round of deadly fight.

"Come on you pieces of sh*t!" I screamed and instantly started running around. Just like I did at the other basin, I started attacking the monsters here using one as a wrecking ball.

I decided to name this as the wrecking ball technique.

However, just in the middle of this, I felt something was wrong. I felt like the number of monsters coming at me was reduced, not like the previous time.

In less than half an hour, I stopped fighting. There were no more monsters coming in my direction.

Yet I still heard the loud roars of these monsters coming from a certain direction. Just one look there and I knew what was going on here.

"So… Those monsters escaped the fire and came here to fight the dominant bulls over their territory? That's funny!"

ًWhat was going on was exactly like that. During the heat of the battle, the monsters from the tree zone seemed to have more courage and started invading the basin.

The number of these monsters weren't that small, but the bulls were also much bigger than them. The tree zone monsters were just like apes covered with weird sharp spikes all over their backs.

They were double the size of any adult human body, with an arching thin tube that extended over their heads, moving left and right like it had its own eyes.

The monsters were moving fast, but losing their favoured trees made them unable to show their superiority here. On the other hand, the bulls weren't fighting with their full forces.

After all, I killed a good deal of them. Also the agile monsters were smarter, attacking only at the outer region, not delving deeply.

That saved them from facing the entire bull force. The fight was really fierce and bloody between the two sides, making me want to sit and watch.

I even thought about taking out a piece of meat and liquor to waste time while both sides end this.

"Wait… If this tactic succeeded, then why not use it again?"

The only drawback about this tactic was the time wasted to burn the forest. Yet while looking at this fight, I knew I had to wait for quite some time before I'd fight again.

If I had to wait, then why not spread fire among the other tree zones here?

I liked the idea, and started to execute it fast.

Just when I did that, I realised that this basin was hexagonal in shape, lined up with six borders of trees from all sides.

One was burning, and I set fire over the other five places.

Then I took out one piece of meat and liquor, and enjoyed half an hour of rest while my enemies were killing each other.

"Time to end this," after half an hour, the fight calmed down for a bit. The win was leaning towards the bulls at the end.

Even after suffering such heavy casualties from this fight, their thick furs were the best counter for these agile monster's darts.

Even the still standing bulls looked a bit drowsy under the effect of that poison. I moved fast and used my heavy glaive to smash their heads, giving them rest from their upcoming misery.
