Extreme Cold Era: Shelter Don't Keep Waste-Chapter 835 - 64
"I really don't know how to evaluate it~!" Aili tilted her head slightly, revealing a somewhat awkward smile, her slender finger lightly tapping her chin, as if contemplating seriously.
Then she sighed gently and explained, "I'm not good at combat, and whether this big thing called the electromagnetic cannon can kill the Divine... that's really hard to answer."
Her voice was soft, carrying a hint of hesitation, "I think an ordinary Divine Attendant or Subordinate God would hardly withstand its power. Even the main god would probably have to deal with it cautiously, right? But..." She paused, a trace of helplessness flashed in her eyes, "I've never seen the scene of the electromagnetic cannon firing or how it behaves when hitting a powerful enemy. You want me to evaluate it now, but I really can't say anything~!"
Listening to Aili's words, Perfikot didn't particularly mind.
She just shrugged lightly, a confident smile curled at the corner of her mouth, and then she patted Aili's shoulder, indicating she join her to watch the first combat test of the electromagnetic cannon.
Her eyes flickered with anticipation and excitement, as if she couldn't wait to see the enormous electromagnetic cannon's performance in combat.
This time, the opponent was an ancient beast found by Perfikot in the Northern Territory forest.
This ancient beast originally lived in the far North Pole, but due to the harsh climate changes and frigid invasions, it was forced to leave its habitat and gradually approached human territory.
Although it hadn't done anything terribly harmful, its mere existence posed a significant threat to nearby residents.
After all, a huge, incredibly powerful ancient beast was only a few dozen kilometers away from the nearest city, even beginning to impact the local residents' lives, which naturally had to be addressed.
However, this time, Perfikot didn't send her invincible fighter Beifa but decided to use the electromagnetic cannon to open the skull of this relatively docile hell beast.
She wanted to verify the actual power of the electromagnetic cannon when facing strong creatures through this combat test.
The battleship slowly sailed towards the target location, eventually stopping above the ancient beast's position.
The ship's surveillance and aiming equipment began to precisely target the beast, and the electromagnetic cannon's charging device emitted a low humming sound.
At this moment, the ancient beast seemed to have sensed the approaching danger. It awoke from its slumber and let out an earth-shattering roar. That sound echoed like thunder in the forest, shaking off countless snow accumulations.
Awakened, the ancient beast quickly spotted the floating battleship in the sky.
Its eyes flashed with anger and vigilance, and it immediately reached down to uproot a thick and tall pine tree.
The ancient beast's strength was indeed astonishing. It easily stripped the spikes and branches off the pine with its front claws, then raised the spear-like long tree high and hurled it at the floating battleship.
Despite the ancient beast's strength being enough to throw a tree branch with the prowess and force of a rocket missile, "a strong draw cannot penetrate the fine silk," the massive trunk ultimately only crashed heavily against the armor plates of the floating battleship.
Except for causing the battleship to slightly sway, this strike did not inflict any effective damage.
The floating battleship's armor plate remained as solid as ever, not even leaving a scratch.
Meanwhile, the electromagnetic cannon at the bottom deck had completed its charging.
A shell-piercing projectile was loaded into the magnetic rail, ready to fire.
Perfikot stood at the control panel, carefully inspecting the ancient beast below, a hint of satisfaction flashing in her eyes.
After all, this was an ancient beast, not a factory's pig ready to be slaughtered—a battle against which already proved the floating battleship's formidable defensive capabilities.
"Are you sure you want to use that big guy as the target for the combat test?" Aili stood beside Perfikot, unable to resist asking.
Her voice carried a hint of worry, "That's a mythical creature, even the main god finds such creatures very troublesome. Can you really kill it?"
Aili's gaze showed a hint of unease. After all, the ancient beast was indeed very powerful, and she worried whether Perfikot could succeed.
Naturally, some unconsciously thought, how could humans defeat Divine beings?
Even a powerful weapon like the electromagnetic cannon could never cause enough harm to omnipotent Divine beings.
However, facing Aili's query, Perfikot merely smiled faintly, replied casually, "No problem, according to my calculations, our firepower should be sufficient to kill this ancient beast.
After all, when I slaughtered that ancient beast last time, I tested the firepower against this type of creature, and the results were satisfactory."
"Alright, so what do we do next?" Aili gazed at the ancient beast below, her eyes showing a trace of sympathy and reluctance.
Being an elf, her culture highly values natural harmony.
Although the ancient beast is a huge problem for anyone, whether humans or the main god, when they actually appear, everyone thinks of eliminating them first, this doesn't stop Aili from feeling grief for the life about to be lost.
After all, the ancient beast hadn't actively provoked humans, it was just unlucky to be discovered by Perfikot and thus used for cannon testing.
Aili sighed lightly, silently praying for the ancient beast's soul to find peace.
Meanwhile, Perfikot's finger had already pressed on the launch button, her gaze steady, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, as if she could already see the moment the electromagnetic cannon hit the target.
With her light pressing of the button, the electromagnetic cannon emitted a soft sound, the shell-piercing projectile shot at incredible speed towards the ancient beast below.
At that moment, time seemed to stand still.
A white line connected from the electromagnetic cannon's barrel to the ancient beast's head, a trail left when the cannonball tore through the air rapidly.
Then, a thunderous roar erupted, the sonic boom from the shell tearing through the air finally spread out.
The steel core within the shell-piercing projectile had precisely hit the ancient beast's head, penetrating its sturdy skull.
Although the wound appeared small, a head penetration was still a fatal injury for the ancient beast.
The giant beast emitted a painful howl, then toppled to the ground, smashing down a large area of surrounding trees while also lifting a massive amount of snow.
Watching the fallen ancient beast, Perfikot's satisfied smile showed the power of this cannon shot was indeed impressive.
Meanwhile, Aili gazed with a hint of sorrow at the now deceased ancient beast, her expression complex as she sighed, "Congratulations, you've mastered a weapon capable enough to slay gods."
