When most of the wizards followed their mission orders and entered the fortress nodes forged from metal,
then fused their spiritual power into the core and took over operational authority,
Benjamin was astonished to discover that the Ship Plane, which had carried them all along and seemed utterly unremarkable, had actually begun to transform as well.
That vast, profound rumble had not come from outside. It erupted from the deepest part of the plane itself, bursting from within to without!
Rumble—Rumble—Rumble—!!
The wasteland beneath his feet began to quake violently, cracks spreading in every direction like a spiderweb. Then—
the land at the center of the Ship Plane was forcibly torn apart as though ripped open by an invisible giant hand.
Blazing runic light surged from the torn abyss, illuminating the entire sky!
Before Benjamin's stunned eyes, a colossal cannon made entirely of unknown metal and covered in densely packed, intricate runes
slowly rose from below like a prehistoric beast.
The diameter of its muzzle alone spanned more than ten kilometers, like the gaping maw of an abyss!
Its barrel stretched so far that no one knew how deep into the Ship Plane it extended.
As the cannon rose, terrifying energy fluctuations distorted the surrounding space, radiating a destructive aura capable of annihilating everything.
Other than that super cannon, with its muzzle over ten kilometers wide and barrel of unknowable length, serving as the main gun, countless other weapons also rose one after another from all over the plane like new life breaking through the soil!
There were Space Annihilation Cannons that distorted space and directly erased matter, Shield Generators capable of producing barriers that could withstand plane-level attacks, Elemental Field Suppressors that could restrain an enemy's elemental control, countless Energy Railguns and Rune Missile Launchers, and even Floating Fortresses
