I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

“For real?” I asked in delight and she nodded.

“She asked me to deliver this message almost two days ago. However, I couldn’t find a single trace of you anywhere.”

“Yes, I was outside town” I turned my attention towards the nearby working place of Lily, “where is she right now?”

“Follow me, my lord,” she said in such respect that I started to get used to it. As she flew towards the ground, I followed with the lowest speed of my chariot.

She flew over the altars built in the form of big pyramids with flat ends and broad platforms at their bases.

After five minutes of flying over many of such pyramids, we started to pass over still not finished ones. Workers were trying their best to place melted ores in the right shape needed to build these altars.

I watched all this while wondering about how these altars with the help of potions would let my boys open cultivation bases.

I previously thought about letting Lily go to the second Earth world and start building altars there. However, since my attempt to cultivate there, I grew more hesitant towards doing that..

The energy there was so much over anyone, even me. So it would be wise to let my boys cultivate here, raise their cultivation bases first, before letting them go into that harsh world to train.

After ten more minutes, we finally passed the region of altars. This place was considered outside the capital area, outside the blockage zone.

“We need protection here,” this was the first thing that flashed in my mind once I reached the outer border of this zone.

This place was going to be the heart of my capital, the place that would create magical effects for my humans.

Here, miracles would be born. And I didn’t want such a place to suffer destruction in the middle of any upcoming battle or quest.

I had to ask Isac and Hilary to start working on this part, reforming the entire plan to be more defensive and highly secured.

“Here she is,” as we passed this region, we ended up at the furnace place and big cauldrons meant for alchemy.

At one side, big ovens were densely packed, looking like a bee hive from high above. Workers were going to and fro, carrying ores, moving melted ores, and others were working on the ovens.

As for the other side, there were different sized cauldrons arranged nearly in rows with regular intervals.

Comparing the two areas together, anyone could tell that alchemists were having much more peaceful and more organised lives than blacksmiths.

But the number of alchemists working here was much larger than blacksmiths. It seemed not only the grand talents I bought for her worked here, but also many disciples also came to help from my humans.

“Nice work,” I said to Lily in applause when she boarded my chariot with a handful of selected personnel.

“We already started the production two days ago! Where were you all this time?”

“I got entangled with something,” Lily wasn’t aware of the presence of my second Earth, “how is the production going?”

“Terrific,” her face beamed with such a wide smile, “we are producing one hundred of each potion per hour. See this…”

She took out nine different sized and coloured bottles from her inventory and gave these to me. All I saw was different coloured liquids with different viscosity in these bottles.

“Don’t!” Just as I was about to open one of the lids to sniff and examine these liquids more thoroughly, she hurriedly shouted to stop me.

“If you just opened the lid and didn’t consume the liquid, they would explode,” she explained when I gave her such a questionable gaze.

“Really? How fierce?” I grew curious about knowing how violent such potions were.

“Enough to wipe out an entire zone of a few hundred metres radius!”

“Damn fierce!” I commented, nodded as I took this small note to my notice.

So, they weren’t just mere tools of opening cultivation bases for my people. They could be used as weapons. And she spoke about using one potion.

These nine were considered small pieces of a big potion. If the nine were mixed together, what sort of explosion would happen then?

However with the current production rate, there was no way to allow such weapons to enter military service. I might let more people come and help them to accelerate the production speed.

By then, I could start thinking about using these potions in war times.

“When can we start testing these?” I still couldn’t feel how special these potions were. And I wanted to see how they would allow my people to open their cultivation bases.

“We can start anytime you want,” she shrugged, “we stored almost nine thousand groups of potions. You can gather nine thousand people at most to start testing.”

“Ok,” I paused, “if this worked, then we have to accelerate the process of production.”

“How?”

“I have more talents coming soon. Let’s use more of the alchemists and workers to help in producing more potions per hour.”

“But…” she seemed to think about the high requirement of any alchemist needed to make these potions.

“I sent the alchemists over to you as the first batch. I know you used more talents from my race as an apprentice to help. But now I have a better way to get more of these alchemists.”

“The apprentice grade ones?”

“No, the grandmaster and much higher than them,” I already spoke with Silverlining about this. All I needed was to make an order and I’d get more of these alchemists.

The ones I gained were all delivered to Lily. She did great by taking in more talents to nourish. Yet such a route would take much time to give real results.

“If you can provide more alchemists of such calibre, then we can work faster indeed.”

“Good, send the word back to Hilary. Let her gather up five thousands of good fighters to get tested.”
