Soon enough, once she was convinced there were no obvious flaws in his defense, she tried to create some. Sudden, concentrated mental bursts slammed into his mental shell, seeking to crack it by channeling all their energy against a specific portion of the shell. He recognized that attack as the one the Sword Divers had used to smash his mind shield spell and ravage his mind. Not surprising they had used that, he was informed, since that type of attack was specifically designed to punch through mental barriers. Mind spike, the aranea called it. Unlike then, however, he had a shiny new mental defense and was facing only one attacker. He felt the spikes hit his shield, but it held, and he quickly repaired all the damage and reinforced that part of the shell to withstand future attacks.
