All Means Exhausted

Watching the dense crimson afterimages ahead, Song Chi felt a slight sense of relief.

At least it was not all bad news. Under the clustered bombardment of numerous secondary guns, those blood shadows were still closing in, but the Frostlight Heavenfrost Cannon and Moonwheel Frostshadow Cannon were no joke. Their slowing properties greatly reduced the speed at which those crimson creatures streaked forward.

The Moonwheel Frostshadow Cannon in particular—a black-quality secondary gun—had long since been enhanced to lv80. Its power was still somewhat lacking, but its rate of fire was beyond reproach.

Including the component itself, that meant the Sky Ruins Firmament carried ten thousand Moonwheel Frostshadow Cannons. Under the effect of "Three Frost Moons," each volley could unleash thirty thousand rounds of "frost moons."

Naturally, that was enough to easily blanket the tens of thousands of crimson creatures charging in from one direction.

Taking advantage of the drastic reduction in those creatures' speed, the Skyvault AI pushed several main guns and super main guns to attack frantically. Secondary guns could only serve as support; to truly kill these crimson creatures, they still had to rely on the main guns and super main guns.
