The fifth wave was the most harrowing yet. Millions of crows darkened the sky, casting a shadow over the stronghold and its defenders. As they drew closer, the degu users could feel the strange power emanating from the birds, making their scalp numb and their bodies weak. The shadow lords, already weakened from the previous battles, struggled to keep up with the overwhelming number of enemies.
The crows screeched and cawed, making it hard for the defenders to communicate and coordinate their attacks. Anna tried her best to keep her focus amidst the chaos, her power of telekinesis proving to be useful in throwing off the crows' aim.
Dave, on the other hand, used his fire abilities to create a wall of flames, attempting to ward off the birds. Bethold and Iren combined their powers, creating a barrier that shielded them from the barrage of attacks.
