That was right. Under the original plan, when the Kingdom of Dawn formally declared war on the Galactic Empire, they would possess at least two Novalith Cannons.

The Novalith Cannon was a superweapon that combined hyperspace travel technology with Mass Effect technology. Its firing apparatus was 70,000 meters long. When firing, it used Hypermatter in place of Element Zero to create a pseudo-Mass Effect, reducing the shell's mass to nearly zero before opening a hyperspace route and accelerating through hyperspace.

This allowed it to achieve speeds far beyond normal hyperspace jumps. And because the shell's mass was nearly zero, it was almost unaffected by mass shadows in hyperspace, meaning it did not need to follow hyperspace routes.

A Novalith Cannon shell had a range of roughly 80,000 light-years. Beyond that distance, it could no longer sustain its Mass Effect field, gradually reverting to its original mass before being torn apart by the mass shadows within hyperspace.

Thus, constructing a Novalith Cannon required an unimaginably vast investment of resources, as well as an enormous energy supply. If the Kingdom of Dawn had not completed the Dyson Ring on Vaxian Planet, it would have been unable to afford the energy needed to fire a Novalith Cannon.

Just look at the bombardment of Fondor Planet. A super nuclear bomb every five hours had been raining down nonstop. Well, because it had been fired too many times recently, the firing frequency had begun to decline. But behind this seemingly simple bombardment lay the Kingdom of Dawn's greatest technological achievement!

Besides the first Novalith Cannon built on Hoth Planet, the Kingdom of Dawn had also constructed a second one on Mustafar. However, due to time constraints, the second Novalith Cannon had not been completed on schedule, leaving only one cannon to bombard Fondor Planet.
