The chase through the Solar System continued. Two nearly identical warships trailed the Winged Race warship like sharks unwilling to abandon their prey.
Whenever the two ships showed signs of closing in, the Winged Race warship ahead increased the density of the hidden mines it deployed, forcing them back. As its thrusters were gradually repaired, the distance between the two sides slowly widened.
Just as the Winged Race crew ahead breathed a sigh of relief, inside the Sea Race warship...
Vast swaths of silvery white spread outward from the main cannon at the bow. With support from the enormous number of Mechanical Insects aboard the Sea Wolf, the devouring progressed countless times faster than on the Winged Race warship.
To equip the Sea Wolf with a Sea Race main cannon and lend credibility to his claim of belonging to a Sea Race subordinate faction, Nie Yun had chosen to devour and analyze the Sea Race main cannon and its associated components first. By now, he had absorbed the technology behind it.
This three-pronged, spiral-shaped main cannon was called the "Heavy Field Ray Cannon." It used a specialized compression device to compress gravitons to their maximum density, then discharged them as a ray, increasing its penetrating power by concentrating its force on a single point.
It was somewhat like an armor-piercing shell, but enemies near its attack path would also be wrenched by the force field of abruptly changing gravity. Its power was formidable.
Although Nie Yun still did not fully understand the principles behind its use of gravitons, that did not stop this main cannon from becoming his most powerful weapon!
Besides this main cannon, there were the tractor beam, high-power thrusters, fire-control system...
The many devices aboard the Sea Race warship were being converted into models, expanding Nie Yun's
