We will not be attacking any enemies but we cannot AFK for this challenge. When the slime reaches the bridge, we will close the Adeptus bridge to let the slimes fall into the void.
The cooldown for the first mechanism might not be up when the second slime reaches the bridge so we will use the second mechanism instead.

Immediately glide down to the lower platform and place 1 pyro tower in front of the banishment tower.
Go back up and wait for the slimes to reach the bridge and activate the first mechanism.
Immediately glide down to the lower platform and replace the banishment tower with pyro tower.
