Space Fortress main cannons possessed extremely powerful deterrent capabilities, but in actual, normal Plane Wars, few foreign gods died beneath the beams of a Space Fortress's main cannon.
This was because Magic Energy Alchemy Technology did not mean omnipotence.
These Metal Continents were, in the end, merely "tools" created by the magicians of the Wizard World. They could not truly be used as Level-4 or Level-5 Creatures.
The delayed firing property of Space Fortresses also made them much more useful when piercing targets that could not move, such as Plane Barriers.

Some warships of technological civilizations in the Star Realm could indeed unleash energy levels of Level-4 and above, carrying out so-called "god hunts."
But one had to understand that technological civilization warships did not fight alone in the Star Realm.
Some powerful technological civilizations claimed they could hunt gods, but that did not mean sending out a single warship to duel a Level-4 lifeform. They deployed an entire fleet!
Only an entire technological fleet—with several capital ships capable of threatening Level-4 and above beings, supplemented by tens of thousands of Attack Ships, Escort Ships, Logistics Transport Ships, as well as vast numbers of drones and Combat Turrets—could launch an encirclement and extermination campaign against a living Level-4 lifeform.

It was a top-level civilization somewhat weaker than the Wizard World, yet seemingly not inferior by too much.
The strength of Wizard Civilization was beyond doubt throughout the Surrounding Starfield.
But neither could the Galente
