Shen Feng narrowed his eyes at the dome, which kept flashing with golden light as it blocked the shells. Together with Jingwei in his Silicon-Based Brain, he rapidly calculated the energy consumption of the quantum force field, searching for the enemy's weakness.
Then he suddenly saw a tile on the dome shatter violently after being struck by an autocannon shell!
Shen Feng nodded slightly, realizing that the quantum force field's energy output was insufficient to fully withstand the sailing battleship's barrage.
