"That makes sense logically.
"But if this theory is correct,
"what kind of ship-mounted weapon would multiple Star Destroyer Cannons of Orange Quality ultimately combine into?"
Liu Zhi murmured in a dreamlike tone.
"It would have to be the ultimate weapon every gunner dreams of!"
Shi Zunhou was fired up!
He sprang to his feet and shouted excitedly.
"Calm down. It's just a theory."
Wu Baiyi hurriedly tried to "cool him off."
"Right. Even if this theory is true,
"who knows how long it'll take to find the other components?
"Especially when we don't have the slightest clue where to look.
"Don't get your hopes up too soon."
Liu Zhi promptly piled on.
But Shi Zunhou didn't seem discouraged in the slightest.
Still brimming with energy, he said, "No! My instincts as an outstanding gunner tell me this theory is correct!
"If it is,
"then one day, I'll personally operate that ship-mounted cannon in its ultimate form!
"I believe in myself, and I believe in Your Excellency. We can definitely do it!"
Wang Dong blinked. You believe in me, but I don't believe in myself. What now?
Finding other modules that might exist without any clear leads—
that was far harder than searching for a needle in the ocean!
However, Shi Zunhou's excitement didn't last long.
With the second shot, the Puppet Mother Tree's branch root seemed to sense that the Sky Peng Horizontal had become a sufficient threat.
The next moment,
before the people aboard the Sky Peng Horizontal could further analyze the damage to the Puppet Mother Tree's branch root,
an invisible ripple passed through space.
Then,
the Puppet Mother Tree's branch root, which had been deeply embedded inside the star, suddenly vanished!
"The Puppet Mother Tree has withdrawn that branch root!"
Gao Luanqin said with certainty.
"Mada!"
