"Keep firing," yet even if I decided to retreat from here and go towards another gate, I had to see how strong this shield of energy really was.
After all, I'd have to come here and fight against this hard to crack opponent.
*Boom!* *Bang!* *Boom!*
The attacks of my boys rumbled in mighty explosions while the projectiles of those monsters landed with bangs over my shield. This fight turned in no time to a war of attrition between our two forces and the two shields.
In fact I knew I would win in the end. After all, even if these attacks kept consuming lots of my stat points stored in the chariot, they soon reached a limit they couldn't exceed.
That energy shield seemed to have limited area of coverage. At any moment a single monster bypassed the area of its defence, that monster would be instantly annihilated.
So after the tough early minutes, things started to stabilise later on.
