The protective barrier was damaged because a few among the 30,000 creatures secretly held back their strength. They did not regard James and Wotan as their final opponents. Thus, they wanted to preserve their strength to seize the treasure after eliminating the two biggest threats.
Someone in the protective barrier shouted, “Guys, stop holding back! We need to go all out now! If you continue limiting your strength, we’re all going to die!”
The others also sensed the dangerous force closing in on them and knew they would die at this rate. At that moment, those holding back hurriedly channeled all their strength to reinforce and strengthen the formation.
Meanwhile, James and Wotan continued to attack them relentlessly.
James slashed the Malevolent Sword, and streams of Sword Energies fell on the protective barrier like a meteor shower. He summoned the Sacred Blossom at the same time, unleashing its power on the barrier as well.
On the other hand, Wotan was also merciless and attacked with all his strength.
The space around the protective barrier was already shattered, and several black holes formed from the intense onslaught.
James cursed, “Damn it. They’re so persistent.”
He had already urged his Chaos Power but still could not break the protective barrier.
Wotan also telepathically communicated with James, saying, “We’re not going to get anywhere at this rate. There are thirty thousand of them, but only two of us. If we continue exhausting our strength like this, we’ll be worn out before we can break the protective barrier.”
James pondered his words. Wotan was right. With 30,000 opponents, they could take turns to rest and recover their strength.
However, James and Wotan were struggling to stay afloat.
James replied telepathically, “We’ve only one option. We need to sow discord among them and break the barrier from within.”
