Chapter 73: Rebuilding the Mechanicus Star Branch
With the technical support of the Mechanicus, the Wangting District can be better developed.
Of course, this nominal branch of the Mechanicus on the planet Erth must be completely obedient to Ron.
With Moss, an absolutely loyal robot as the leader, there shouldn't be any problems with loyalty.
Call welcomed Ron and Moss into the house.
As soon as they sat down, a drone made of a man's skull floated over to them holding a cup.
I saw that its skull was covered with mechanical structures, the engine oil was evenly applied, and the mechanical claws on its body were smooth and translucent.
It hands everyone a cup, and then sticks out a tube from its mouth.
The pipe clicked, and a cup of oily tea of unknown origin was poured into the cup.
Everyone has a cup.
Kaul warmly entertained:
“Your Majesty the Governor, Your Excellency the Sage, please try it.
This is the mechanical fuel drink passed down from our Sali family. It is said to be the product of a certain sage. The secret recipe given.
It is very delicious, and it is very helpful for sensing machine souls..."
As he said that, he drank it in one gulp and seemed to enjoy it very much.
Ron looked at the cup of tea and didn't dare to drink it.
Afraid it’s not engine oil?
Those technical priests not only transform body organs on a large scale, but even replace blood with special substances to extend life.
Who knows what weird things they might drink.
Then, he saw Moss next to him pick up the tea cup and drink the drink in the cup.
After Moss drank it, his whole body seemed to be smooth. He nodded and praised:
"A good drink, praise the God of all opportunities!"
Ron:? ? ?
Can you eat too?
Seeing Moss finish his drink, the skull drone floated over to give him a refill.
Caul saw Moss looking at the skull drone with curious eyes, so he introduced it enthusiastically:
"Sir, I specially modified this, isn't it good?"
< br>Dangdang.
As he spoke, he reached out and patted the skull drone’s smooth and translucent forehead, quite proudly:
“To tell you the truth, this is my father!”
< br>
? ? ?
Ron was stunned for a moment before he reacted.
What Kaur meant was that the skull belonged to his father.
Ron is a little numb.
This guy Kaur really didn’t regard himself as an outsider, he actually asked his father to pour him tea himself.
In fact, Ron knew what this skull drone was, it was a servo skull.
To put it simply, the Servo Skull is the universal drone of the Empire, serving various institutions of the Empire, including the Adeptus Mechanicus.
The servo skull has various uses, such as battlefield communications, ammunition replenishment, mechanical assistants, etc.
Especially the powerful technical priests in the Mechanicum, they like to modify and strengthen the servo skull in various ways.
Even equipped with powerful weapons and shield fields, etc.
That's similar to how the rich people in Ron's world liked to modify sports cars.
That is a symbol of strength and technical ability.
In addition, the skull is a symbol of human purity, so the empire often likes to use human skulls to make servo skulls.
And not everyone’s skulls can be used as raw materials. Only the Emperor’s most loyal servants are qualified to donate skulls.
Therefore, within the Empire, especially within the Mechanicum, it is a symbol of glory that the head can be made into a servo skull after death.
This is why Call is so proud to introduce his father, the Servo Skull.
Of course, there is another reason, that is, Kaul is shameless.
According to the information Ron obtained, before his death, Call's father desperately hoped that his head could be made into a servo skull.
But in view of his "excellent" performance during his lifetime, Wang Ting District would be merciful if he was not tried, and he is not qualified to be used as the raw material for the servo skull.
But now it seems that Caul secretly made his father's skull into a servo skull, which can be regarded as fulfilling his father's wish.
But that has not been verified by formal departments.
In other words, Call secretly obtained a "false certificate" for his father, and shamelessly showed off in front of Ron, the governor.
And in his memory, it seems that Call's father also secretly made his grandfather into a servo skull. Also undocumented.
This may be Sally’s family tradition.
Ron suddenly felt inexplicably tired.
Forget it, after all, you chose the person, just pretend you don’t know about it.
Go back and ask the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to fill in the files for Kaul’s father.
It’s just that Ron felt something was wrong.
This guy Kaur is a bit unreliable. You won’t dig a big hole for him, right?
But now there is no better choice.
What he wants is Caul's boldness.
After a few pleasantries, Ron went straight to the point and proposed the idea of funding the reconstruction of the Mechanicum branch of the planet Erth.
This idea was strongly recognized by Moss and Kaul.
Moshitto.
But Caul really wanted to join the Rebuild Mechanicus branch, and he couldn't wait any longer.
After all, he is eager to confirm his fake identity and become a real technical priest in order to rebuild the glory of his family.
As for strength, after all, his grandfather is a mechanical sage.
He, Sali Kaul, perfectly inherited the mechanical academic ideas of his father and grandfather, and became even more outstanding.
Of course, for the Mechanicus, it is even more heretical.
But it doesn't matter. In Ron's opinion, those who can be loyal to the God Emperor are more loyal to themselves.
He is the pillar of the empire!
As for the reconstruction of the Mechanicus branch, does it need to be approved by the Mechanicus official?
In this regard, Ron said no.
When the Adeptus Mechanicus branch is established, it will be official. Then we will review it internally!
There is absolutely no problem with this operation.
Although the Mechanicus all nominally believe in the Omnissiah, there are numerous internal branches of faith and differences in ideas.
There is a saying: there are as many beliefs as the Mechanicum has as many stars as there are in the sky.
Ideological wars such as the famous "binary split" are fought out in a dog's head.
Some powerful forging worlds even ignore the Mars headquarters and blatantly engage in technological heresy.
Therefore, Ron didn't have to worry about the Mechanicum at all. He took advantage of the isolation of the big crack to seize the opportunity to set up a stall and get it done.
As long as it develops, anything can be said.
Soon, Ron reached an agreement with the Mechanical Sage Moss and the Technical Priest Caul to select a site to rebuild the Mechanic Cult's Eth Star branch.
The general person in charge of the branch is Moss, and his assistant is Kaul.
At the same time, they will select suitable personnel for assessment, and those who pass will become members of the new branch.
Of course, this selection method is only temporary.
The future will be cultured in culture tanks, using data links in the fetal stage to instill an instinctive level of knowledge and get to work quickly.
A few days later, the location selection for the Urth branch of the Mechanicus was completed, and Caul’s machinery factory was chosen.
A statue of Omsenia, the great god of all machines, is erected at the entrance of the machinery factory.
The base of the statue is also engraved with the motto:
"Nothing can stop you from pursuing knowledge.
No one can stop you from pursuing and obtaining sacred technology.
No one can stop you from standing on the throne of the God of All Machines. Your seat!"
On that day, Ron led officials from Wangting District to witness the formal establishment of the Mechanicum branch.
Everyone held a prayer ceremony in front of Omseniya at the entrance of the machinery factory.
Moss pulled the wrench and flames ignited in the machine shop, igniting the engine.
Then the hymn sounded:
“Toll the bell once!
Push the lever, start the piston and pump...
Toll the bell Twice!
Press the button, start the engine, ignite the turbine, breathe life into...
Ring the bell three times!
Sing together and praise the God of all opportunities! ”
When the huge gears inside the mechanical factory rotated, the steam roared.
The Mechanicus of the Star of Erth was officially established!
