When launching an attack, timing is crucial.
Gu Xi kept a close eye on the shrinking encirclement, ready to issue the order to fire at any moment.
Just as the zombie sea monsters were about to enter the artillery range, Gu Xi used his mental power to give an order.
The octopus's eight tentacles, honed to incredible agility by various household chores, simultaneously lowered their control handles, and several water and fire elemental cannons began to charge.
Although Ai Si knew these were weapons, it was the first time he had ever seen eight cannons fire at the same time; it was quite a sight.
Moreover, compared to the ice-breaking cannons fired by the Fire Element Cannon he had seen before, the energy gathered by the current energy cannon was obviously stronger than before, which surprised him slightly.
"Plop! Their power is not bad! Stronger than the octopus's attack."
The octopus, completely focused on firing its cannon, thankfully didn't hear the comments, otherwise it would definitely have started squeaking again.
These energy cannons, aside from their long charging time, are virtually costless to fire, making them essential weapons for any ship. A small segment of humanity now already possesses this luxury item.
Gu Xi was already quite satisfied with these energy cannons, and now that she heard Ai Si praising them, she felt very proud.
"Of course! If there's enough water and fire elemental essence, and the base is sturdy enough, the power of the energy cannon can be further enhanced!"
After a moment of confusion, Ai Si's eyes gradually cleared.
"Plulu? Could it be something you added earlier?"
"That's right. The water element cannon is fine. After replacing the base, the cannon base will not have much impact on the ship's foundation. But the fire element cannon is different. If you want to significantly increase the power of the fire element cannon, the area around the base needs to be replaced with fireproof and high-temperature resistant materials."
While Ember Crystals are valuable, she doesn't have many left as the building area expands. She had previously searched for them at auctions but hadn't found any.
“Plurp plurp~ Abyss Crystals will also work.” Ai thought for a moment and said.
Gu Xi listened in silence. Ai Si casually mentioned Abyss Crystal, as if it were worthless. Did he even know it was a very valuable material?! And he was using it as a base for some kind of energy cannon!
Who knows, this thing might even produce something called an Abyss Energy Cannon!
Gu Xi simply ignored this "Why don't they eat meat porridge?" opinion.
A blinding ball of energy shot out towards the encirclement of zombie sea monsters.
Boom—
Although there were only eight cannons, they triggered a chain reaction of explosions, with countless blasts of varying sizes exploding one after another. A ring of artillery fire immediately formed around the Future.
Once it explodes, it means it has been hit, and the octopus prepares to fire a second time.
As the octopus prepared its second shot, Ais suddenly looked up and said, "Plop! More sea monsters are coming this way!"
"Immediately unleash your mental power to construct a very high ice wall around the current encirclement. Leave an entrance directly in front of the Future," Gu Xi ordered immediately.
"Plop! Good!"
Following Gu Xi's instructions, Ai Si immediately used his mental power to construct an ice wall about 100 meters high outside the encirclement. Within moments, the battle-torn sea area was isolated from the rest of the sea by his ice wall.
The ice wall that roared up from the sea instantly crushed many sea creatures, smashing them to pieces. Some of the debris even flew near the ships.
Now is not the time to be disgusting!
Without even glancing at it, Gu Xi directly used her mental power to command the octopus to switch the position of the water element cannon to the gap in the ice wall after the second batch of energy cannons were fired.
It used its water elemental cannon to clear out the zombie sea monsters that were pouring in through the breach, leaving the other sea monsters to her and Ais to deal with.
