After all, the power Riemann used right now belonged to her contracted spirit.
Even if she could use the spirit's ability without getting possessed since she's a senior shaman, her old body couldn't handle it.
But if she left the control to her spirit instead and allowed them to possess her, she would still be as strong as the youngsters!
None of them could be like that once they reached 60 or 70 years old, ah!
The big bosses were jealous of Ainsley and Riemann, but they still did their duties pretty well.
They worked with each other and successfully killed many enemies who came to the island either by air route or the sea route.
After all, there were so many ships in many directions heading to the island. There's no way Jake could handle each of them pretty well.
Thus, the big bosses worked together with the 800 troops to attack the 'fish' who escaped their net.
In just an hour, the enemies' ships had already decreased to half, and their number was also cut to a pitiful 2000 troops.
On the other hand, of the people in Ainsley's faction died.
After all, they had the blood dome to protect them, a senior alchemist who made potions for them, and even a grand healer!
Their little team surprisingly did well. It's all thanks to Ainsley and Jake, the two MVPs of the short war.
But the group didn't celebrate just yet.
The enemy did lose their air troops and only had a little left.
Their ships were also destroyed, but they still had the reinforcement!
Jake said that the number of reinforcement coming their way might reach 10.000 troops while their own reinforcement would only reach 5.000 or 8.000 troops.
Wouldn't that be another great war ahead? But their barrier-making machines still couldn't work well.
When the time comes, wouldn't their island suffer the most damages without the barrier?
Jake also thought about this, and while controlling the sea to attack another batch of ships, he spoke to the big bosses through the Airpods.
"Everyone. I think we need another batch of barrier-making machines. Any of you have some? If you do, immediately send them via teleportation to Port Island!"
From Port Island, they would ship the machines to Pandora Island.
With Jake's ability to protect the ship, the ship carrying the machines would arrive at the island safely.
Jake's idea sounded good, and the big bosses immediately contacted their people to teleport a barrier-making machine if they had any.
This kind of machine was actually super expensive that no one would easily give out one, but they were the island's major shareholders.
They had to invest more to receive more from Ainsley, the island's actual owner.
Ainsley even said that she would give a batch of free Hundred Thousands Demon Blood gems to their families as a thank-you gift for helping her defend the island!
That's another precious resource other than the inheritance stones, ah!
Thus, once the two-hour time limit ended, Ainsley already received 10-15 barrier-making machines, enough to cover the whole island.
At this time, the enemies' anti-barrier machine had already stopped working, and yet they hadn't been able to take down Ainsley's group.
The marshal was already so anxious that he almost blew the whole ship.
"What is this! There's no way they can keep fighting for too long! Why haven't we won yet, hm? We have many elites to take the main attacker spot, right? Where are they??"
The elites gulped nervously as they peeked at the marshal's dark face.
"M-marshal, we haven't been able to snatch the base or the mine because the enemy created a barrier made of blood…a-and…"
"And what?!"
"W-we are reluctant to attack the rest of the island because we don't know if there are any dangerous areas on the island that will bring danger to all of us if they get damaged."
The marshal paused at that young man's words because he recalled the government's intel about the island.
The island's previous owner said that there's an Abyss Entrance on the island…
But the owner didn't specify the entrance's coordinate. If they blindly attacked the island and somehow destroyed or damaged the Abyss Entrance, who knows what would happen?
After all, everyone had been so careful around the Abyss Entrances or exits.
Everyone was afraid of bringing calamity to the whole world if they messed around with the Abyss Entrances or exits!
The marshal understood the elites' concern. They couldn't just attack the island blindly if they didn't want any calamities to happen.
That's why their troops were restricted and could only aim for the base. But the ground was well-protected by the blood dome.
This is a deadlock.
The fastest way to win the war was to snatch the base and occupy the island, driving their targets away.
But the targets could come back anytime to try snatching the island from their hand…
After all, this is a world where the strong ones win everything.
Even if Ainsley was the official owner of the island, if other powerhouses defeated her and took over the island, she couldn't do anything about that.
The mafia council would usually interfere with the case if the two sides had already fought once and the result was out.
The loser couldn't keep attacking that territory and had to give up. Else, there would be war everywhere and everyday.
But this island was coveted by a lot of powerhouses, not only those from the mafia society.
Thus, even the mafia council could do nothing if the powerhouses repeatedly attacked the island.
The only way to solve this problem was to strengthen the island's military strength until no one dared to attack them!
