These little details didn't miss the keen eyes of the enemy, and tricked him to decide to send more troops here.
Even if my way was overbearing, I still had trouble keeping it going for a long time.
And that is what I tried to show using such small and little details.
I didn't aim towards showing this off quite clearly, or else that dude would suspect my actions. Such a cautious person was so damn hard to deal with!
I had to show him that I was struggling to keep my technique running while trying my best for him to not realise that. And he indeed fell so damn deep inside my trap.
Seeing the large number of fiends appearing out from the holes made my heart palpitate. All of these… All of them were simply walking treasure chests in my eyes.
I didn't see people flying out of these holes before getting smashed hard against my brutal artefact's effect, but valuable bones and priceless gears flying with wings!
Bring more! Send everything you could!
As he already fell, I didn't hesitate to give him a push with all my might.
During the next hour, I showed many frowns on my face while struggling to keep up with the current consumption rate.
I even cut off the energy supply for the gravity artefact on a few occasions, breaks that didn't last more than a few seconds before I returned the energy running towards the board I held.
This resulted in the enemy forces regaining their composure for brief seconds, flying and running, and even fighting back against my warriors on many occasions.
I didn't care that much for the losses on my side. I did that to fool my enemy, and soon enough the results showed that it was worth the trouble.
The enemy increased the number of holes he created, and sent much more fiends towards the inside.
And now there was a single flow in this plan… There was no more space!
The fiends were now lying on top of each other, so close from crushing their peers to death under their weight.
At some places near the holes, there were many layers of these fiends falling on top of each other!
"Tsk! I have to increase the number of shields again," I frowned when I thought about this. And this time my frown was genuine and real.
If I wanted to cast more shields, then I had to hold my pillar. And that meant I had to stop using one of the two artefacts I was holding with both hands at the moment.
Why the hell didn't I have more than two arms? There were many races who had many pairs of hands and legs in the universe! And right now I couldn't help but envy them for that!
If I had to choose, then I'd select the board. But to do so, I had to put out a show.
I waited till almost half of my bones got consumed. By then, the amount of energy gushing into my body got halved, and that insane pressure reduced.
It was time then…
"Ahhh!" I suddenly screamed, threw away that board on the ground of my chariot like it was a cursed item or something.
I put on a struggling expression on my face and the next instant I replaced it with fear.
I jumped over to catch my board, yet again I screamed the moment I did so. I frowned, looked at the board, then the world around, then the board again.
"Tsk!" I bitterly smiled, while inwardly was laughing to my heart's content. I hoped my little act wouldn't get seen through.
I looked again at the world, while putting a struggling expression and hesitation. Then I took out my pillar, and started to execute my shield skill over and over without a moment of pause.
Hopefully this little act of mine would fool him, making him see this as an opportunity to send more friends here.
The moment my board's gravity was negated, the fiends on the ground stood up fast. Then a brutal fight erupted the next moment.
The number of fiends here was already too much for my forces. So I took out lots of warriors, while flying around, trying to form more shields.
"Time to get this fire killed," The fiends weren't the only ones who got freed, that fire was as well.
The fire raged wild and returned to its berserk state. But there was a way to put it down once and for all.
I activated the offensive attack of my shields. During all this time, the shields suffered tons of damage coming from this fire.
Even if it got crushed to the ground by my board's insane gravity, the fire kept attacking and harming my shields.
The moment I released the attack from my shields two layers, a bright light appeared and blinded my sight. This came at the intense moment when everyone was fighting for their lives.
I couldn't tell what was going on anymore, and for sure the enemy couldn't. This kind of attack would take at least ten minutes before it'd die down. So I kept using my skill without pause for almost eight minutes.
And then I put away my pillar, scattered tons of bones around, and held the board on the ground before activating the gravity effect again.
During such chaos, it was hard for the enemy to see through anything. I just hoped that dude would have a suitable counter for my shields' deadly attack.
Even if he didn't, the end result would be the same for me. I'd just have to wait for the latter after the end of the battle, go out there and gather up the dead bodies of those friends outside the shields.
Or perhaps it'd be better to secure my loot and keep using the same tactic from time to time.
After the passage of almost fifteen minutes, the blinding light all receded and the world around appeared at last.
