The Hescos weren''t the only ones who were adding more troops to their side, mine also did. As for Sara, since the moment she appeared and the fight took a really sharp twist towards being overwhelmingly reckless and scary.


    This girl didn''t know anything about tactics! She just led her forces topete with others head to head without any regard to anything else.


    Even if many of her forces fell, it didn''t make her pause. She kept flying over the heads of the ground Hescos, using her chariot to attack them using deadly weapons.


    It seemed the research department already installed and modified her chariot, turning it into some sort of flying fortress. Just the attacksing from her chariot was enough to take down tens of thousands of Hescos in each passing minute.


    That was quite scary. If I got all my generals here, using their chariots like Sara did, then killing millions of these Hescos wouldn''t be an issue.


    But I just had one general now. As for the other four, I couldn''t tell when they''d appear.


    I just hoped they''d not be toote in their arrival. The hittingnding over the shields up there was getting fiercer by each passing minute. In my estimate, in the best case scenario, the shields up there could withstand these attacks for twenty more minutes at max.


    I decided to give it fifteen minutes before focusing on using the skill of the pir. If the pir was an item I could lend, then it was better to lend it to Sara or another general to help.


    Casting the skill repeatedly while concentrating over absorbing bones and trying to hunt down the hard to catch Hescos was already getting me cornered.


    So during the next fifteen minutes, I tried my best to increase the number of controlled Hescos. At the end, around three million Hescos were under my control.


    Then I shifted my attention away, letting the controlled Hescos help me in controlling others. It was a passive way to control others, and it came with the drawback of it being limited by range.


    Using this method was the only thing I could do right now. All I needed to do was to get more bones out, absorb them and use the energy to replenish the lost ones.


    Just stopping caring for controlling more Hescos I had enough mind power and focus to make much more shields. I started to cast the skill almost each second, ending up forming lots of shields to support the sky.


    The sound of the iing hits was getting closer before I finally ditched controlling Hescos. Then by the addition of the new shields, this sound started to gradually be distant.


    It was happening at a slow pace, but I was sure this method worked. The new shields kept covering up the sky, supporting the already existing shields and stopping the iing attacks sessfully.


    I had to wait for a few hours until I finally returned to hear the sounds of these scary attacksing from far away. It meant the shieldyer grew to enough thickness to stop the iing attacks without losing too much.


    As I reached this point, I had the power to start up another thing. The first thing I did wasn''t to return and control more Hescos, but to summon warriors.<novelnext>  </novelnext>


    After all these hours of fighting, the number of forces on the side of theyers was getting crushed by the still increasing enemies.


    I didn''t know how they did that. But for a moment there I doubted that these underground forts were linked with the outside world beyond this fortress.


    Or else how could the Hescos keep throwing out tens of millions constantly for hours? Even I, who had a portal in the centre of this ce, wasn''t able to achieve such a thing.


    No matter how many appeared out of the portal and joined the fight, the biggest number I ever got on my side was a few millions. The death toll was high and much of my forces were getting wounded or killed pretty damn fast.


    Part of this was thanks to the scary offensive nature of Sara. This girl was just a fighting maniac, reminding me of the reckless Berserkers.


    If Sara was with Wryly, I was sure she''d be pretty much loved and respected by the Berserkers out there.


    Seeing all this made me realise if there was a breaking point in all this then it''de from my warriors. Without adding more warriors, the iing troops wouldn''t be able to change this annoying stalemate.


    Summoning warriors was easy peasy for me, but they''d end up being too much of a burden as they wouldn''t be at their full strength.


    So I had to wait until I enforced the shields enough before taking hills of stat crystals out alongside many warriors.


    I started to summon the warriors I got from Silverlining, who reached a frightening figure in my inventory. I got many warriors from my warrior den, but didn''t intend to use any of these yet.


    These monsters were all strong and mighty, with many with wings. I decided to leave these till the most dire moments, hoping they''d be enough to deal with any urgent situation out there.


    As I took my warriors out, I gave them the order to start consuming the stat crystals. Batch after batch started to fill up their stat reserve, ending up being in the best form to fight.


    Yet I didn''t throw them directly at the fight. I kept summoning forces out, adding more stats to them, then stored them in the midzone.


    After all this time, the central zone was the only ce controlled safely by my forces. Even the firstyer didn''t show any sign of getting under my control anytime soon.


    I waited, gathered up millions of warriors while using my skill at the same time. From time to time I''d replenish the exhausted crystals, allowing more warriors to get their fill.
