At this moment, the thousands of Gargoyles that broke through were hovering scattered in the sky thirty or forty meters above the territory, ready to unleash Blade Light attacks.

The Ancient Guardians and Elemental Arrow Towers within the territory were launching attacks at the fastest frequency.

However, for these thousands of Gargoyles that had broken through, these attacks seemed quite insufficient.

These thousands of Gargoyles had a significant numerical advantage; even a single round of attack meant thousands of Blade Light strikes, posing a considerable threat to the warriors below.

Even those Mages, when facing ten or more Blade Light attacks simultaneously, were in danger of being instantly killed.

Just as those Gargoyles unleashed their Blade Light, and the Lords who came to support were preparing to order their warriors to evade the attack,

a faint blue light spread out and, in the blink of an eye, extended two hundred meters, forming a semicircular Magic Energy Shield.

Zong Shen, unbeknownst to anyone, had already exited Crewman Mode and pulled out the Mobile Magical Array (Damaged) to charge and activate it.

Last time on Lake Heart Island, he only invested ten Basic-level Magic Energy Crystals, boosting the durability value of the shield to 30,000 points, while it also had 35 points of armor value and magic resistance.

It's a highly cost-effective Magic Energy Shield item.

This time, he was wealthy and directly charged fifty Basic-level Magic Energy Crystals.

The entire Magic Energy Shield's durability value reached 150,000 points, though both durability value and magic resistance remained at 35 points.

The pale blue shield appeared overhead, covering most of the territory. The black Blade Light from the Gargoyles fell, striking the shield, where the black energy of the Blade Light collided and dispersed on the shield's surface.

Tiny ripples spread out on the pale blue shield, while the dissipating black energy bloomed like black lotuses on the shield.

Thousands of Blade Light strikes were not a small number, causing the Magic Energy Shield's durability value to deplete rapidly.

By the time the shield had endured thousands of Blade Light strikes, the durability value had dropped to just 26,943 points.

This was the effect of the Gargoyle's numerical advantage. Previously, Zong Shen would directly use Demon Deterrence to drive them away because dealing with Gargoyles required a large amount of ranged firepower.

His original squad size naturally couldn't meet this condition, so Zong Shen, unwilling to let the Gargoyle points slip away, used the Storm Crossbow as an output method to harvest some Gargoyles as much as possible.

However, now in the territory, there were so many ranged warriors brought by the supporting Lords.

The overall ranged output capability had improved many times over, and with Zong Shen's Magic Energy Shield guarding them, those ranged warriors were able to attack with peace of mind.

This time, the Magic Energy Shield he brought out certainly played a big role!

Zong Shen dispelled the shield to recharge it, and now the Gargoyle Swarm was divided into two parts. One part hovered near the low altitude, about thirty or forty meters above the territory, while the other still circled a hundred meters high, consisting of Gargoyles that had failed in the previous dive.

Having suffered a barrage of three waves of ranged attacks, the Gargoyle Swarm had lost two to three thousand members, leaving a combined total of only about seven to eight thousand, having been depleted by more than a third.

This was just a process of ebb and flow; as long as the first wave of the Gargoyle's assault couldn't succeed, their numerical advantage would be gradually lost in battle, leading inevitably to defeat.

Especially after Zong Shen deployed the Magic Energy Shield, all the Lords' morale soared; just now, each of their subordinates had more or less killed some Gargoyles, although the numbers varied, virtually everyone got a share.

It must be noted that by killing one Gargoyle, one could earn 25 points, which most Lords wouldn't consider negligible income.

Relying on Zong Shen's Magic Energy Shield, and with so many Lords fighting side by side here, there was indeed some chance of completely annihilating this batch of Gargoyles.

More importantly, the previous round of cooperation was overall satisfactory; although the soldiers came from different territories, commanded by different Lords, their cooperation in the several rounds of ranged salvos just now was quite impressive.

After the Magic Energy Shield was removed, everyone did not hesitate and quickly brewed the fifth wave of assault.

At the same time, the Tower of Thunder had also finished its attack cooldown, launching two azure lightning bolts like chains that spread rapidly.

Lightning flashed in the sky, and instantly ten Gargoyles plummeted to the ground with the foul smell of burnt by lightning, crashing hard into the ground.

Round after round of Arrow Rain and Magic Bullet Screens roared overhead, followed by Gargoyles tumbling down, their bodies riddled with various magical wounds and pierced by arrows and javelins.

They fell like howling shells, carving out craters upon impact with the ground, and potentially damaging the durability value of the buildings within the territory if they landed on them.

Only those Gargoyles slain directly in the air would gradually dissolve in descent, turning into corrosive water splattering on the ground, vanishing without a trace.

Ranged warriors cooperating with the territory's defense structures, and when necessary, with Zong Shen erecting another wave of Magic Energy Shield, everything coordinated seamlessly.

The number of Gargoyles was also rapidly decreasing; completely annihilating this batch of Gargoyles was not an unreachable dream.

Zong Shen had long ago set the Giant Cannon Tower to automatic mode, which was now maintaining a rapid reload frequency of one shot every 15 seconds, targeting the surrounding Burrow Monster Swarm.

The bombardment from the Giant Cannon Tower spared neither friend nor foe. The best time to strike was now, before the Burrow Monster Swarm engaged with the outer perimeter of the territory.

Once the Burrow Monster Swarm fully advanced and close-quarters combat broke out, the Giant Cannon Tower would require manual operation in Crewman Mode to target the rear of the swarm. Otherwise, there was a significant risk of friendly fire.

After an uninterrupted eight rounds of long-range offensives, coupled with the defense tower's dense existence within the territory, the Gargoyle Swarm was finally wiped out.

All the supporting Lords were very excited; they had always found facing the Burrow Monster Swarm and those small-scale Gargoyle swarms quite vexing, and now they finally felt proud and elated.

This indeed showcased the power of many working together.

Everyone averaged hundreds of points, and Zong Shen benefited the most, since his scale of ranged warriors was not small, and as it occurred within his territory, the points earned from defensive structures killing Gargoyles were credited to him.

Counting this down, there were several thousand points acquired, but given Zong Shen's current perspective and resources, he didn't place much importance on these thousands of points.

After solving the Gargoyle Swarm in the sky, the Mages sat down cross-legged to meditate, while the archers and crossbowmen began retrieving arrows from the ground, including javelin throwers recovering their short spears.

It seems somewhat unflattering, but it truly reflects the reality of the Lords.

Of course, these warriors were not from Zong Shen's ranks.

Zong Shen had previously exchanged plenty for consumables like arrows, crossbow bolts, and javelins. Although they would retrieve them during the Burrow Frontline, there was no need to do so in this situation.

Before the grand battle, Zong Shen had already arranged for Wenresa and Marie to distribute a large amount of combat supplies in advance.

This even applied to the Mages, each taking out a small bottle and drinking half of the Moon God Spring Water inside to quickly restore their mana.
