I kept moving around and this time I spent ten hours before finally returning to check on the first shield zone.
And there I found no white dots at all.
"It's safe to assume they are all dead… However…" I decided to stay around and wait for another day before deciding such a crucial matter.
If the enemy found a way to remain alive inside, then it was better to add more fire to the shields and incinerate them once and for all.
I resumed releasing my bones at other shields. And when I ended up dealing with these shields, I started to seek more enemies and form new shields and do the same.
After doing this for endless times for over one day, I ended up returning back to the initial zone.
"Tsk, there are five stubborn dudes down there," I noticed five faint white dots, flickering in the middle of all the orange and red sea like they were going to die at any moment.
Seeing this made me take one more fine gold grade bone and started to activate it.
