Chapter 260 Moon Forge World
Moon.
On the track, an airport platform about 20 kilometers long shines in the sun.
The port is an endless warehouse area as far as the eye can see.
Hundreds of large transport ships from all over the star region dock here every day, unloading full loads of construction materials, ores, food and other goods.
Transport workers at the airport wear exoskeleton equipment several meters high and drive transport vehicles, and are busy all the time.
They need to unload the cargo from the transport ship to the transfer warehouse, and then transport it to the ground by hundreds of large space elevators.
There is no doubt that this is one of the busiest ports in the Gori Sector.
The construction resources of the entire star region are gathered here.
Because this will become a forging world.
outside the atmosphere.
The Dream came to a slow stop.
Whoosh——
A large assault ship flew from the ship and headed towards the surface of the moon.
Inside the assault ship.
"That guy Caul is quite fast..."
Ron was sitting on the seat, browsing the documents sent by the Mechanicus.
The main purpose of his visit to the moon this time was to inspect the operation of the psychic automated production line.
That is the key technology that will determine whether the territory can accelerate its development in the future.
After roughly reading the document, Ron turned off the data pad. He turned his head and looked through the porthole, overlooking the eight-clawed spider-like mechanical hive on the ground.
After more than ten years of renovation, the first phase of the Mechanical Nest City has been completed.
It can be seen that the mechanical nest city is still being built and expanded.
Huge construction machinery continues to bulldoze the endless steep mountainous areas on the moon, swallowing up soil and ore.
The engineering team at the rear, under the command of the technical priest, continued to build a foundry on flat land.
This is the vigorous lunar transformation plan and one of the key projects in the star area development plan.
For this transformation plan, the Ministry of Interior deployed billions of engineering personnel from all over the sector, as well as an even larger logistics team.
There are hundreds of large transport ships alone, and countless engineering machinery.
According to the plan, the Erth Mechanicus will completely transform the moon's environment and turn it into a huge complex of foundries - the Lunar Forge World.
The Lunar Forge World will become the holy land of Erth Mechanicus and the largest forging base in the sector.
In the future, a steady stream of weapons, armor, vehicles and warships will be produced from the foundry here.
According to the estimates of the Ministry of the Interior and the Adeptus Mechanicus.
After the Lunar Forge World was initially formed, relying on psychic automated production technology, its productivity was able to meet the needs of the entire star region.
With subsequent transformation plans, the productivity of the Lunar Forge World will continue to leap forward.
Able to export products to places outside the star region.
……
Mechanical Hive Center.
As soon as the hatch of the assault ship opened, Ron felt a slight burning sensation coming towards his face.
That is the heat emitted by the high-temperature furnace.
As soon as he came down, he saw the huge statue of the Savior in the center area.
The statue is majestic and majestic, reaching a height of 500 meters. Its height is comparable to that of a skyscraper.
The whole body of the icon is assembled from a mechanical structure, which has both the rough beauty of machinery and the sanctity of religion.
It gives people a strong visual shock.
What is even more surprising is the golden sun above the statue.
It was a ring-shaped mechanical device, with thick golden energy filling the center.
Looks like a real sun.
"Hey~ This idea is great!"
Ron looked up at the holy statue in front of him, admiring his heroic appearance, and was quite satisfied.
The golden energy in the ring-shaped mechanical device is the spiritual power of the little sun.
Of course, it is not a decoration, but has a real function.
The statue of the Savior in front of you is the energy core of this mechanical hive.
It can continuously extract the spiritual power of the little sun through the huge ring-shaped subspace extraction device above its head.
Those energies will be supplied to various foundries in the mechanical hive along the complex energy pipelines inside the icon.
As the energy source for psychic automated production lines.
Watching the extraction device continuously extracting the psychic power of Little Sun, Ron felt comfortable.
Before, he was worried that the little sun would not have enough energy.
Now it seems that it is completely enough.
Little Sun’s current energy sources mainly come from three sources.
The most important force is the power of faith provided by the hundreds of billions of people in the star area.
The second is the unknown emotional energy from the subspace, which should be provided by those chaos demons.
The last energy comes from the God Emperor.
Ever since the little sun had the devouring property, Ron had manipulated the little sun to continue absorbing the energy emanating from the golden sun.
Occasionally pick up a big one.
But not long ago, Ron discovered that the God Emperor would throw a lot of psychic power to Little Sun from time to time.
Sneaky and never tired of it.
That is the high-quality spiritual power of the Golden Sun, which can accelerate the growth of the little sun.
Therefore, over the years, Little Sun has accumulated more and more strength and expanded several times in size.
These were also fed back to Ron's body. The muscles in his body became tighter and his strength became much stronger.
The strength of the body is gradually getting closer to the original body.
He estimated that his current body strength was about two-thirds that of the original body.
In terms of actual combat ability...
Probably the kind that was chased away by Lao Ji.
While Ron was admiring the icon.
A huge red figure floated over, blocking his sight.
It was a five- to six-meter-tall technical priest inlaid with various mechanical prosthetics, wrapped in a very large red robe.
Looks a bit like a black engine oil guy.
"Savior!"
A slightly mean and exaggerated electronic sound came from the mechanical body.
That guy Kaul is right.
Looking at the behemoth in front of him, Ron frowned slightly: "How did you end up like this?"
This modification is too outrageous.
Of course, this is based on his aesthetics. He doesn't like excessive transformation.
"Isn't this handsome enough?
Such a body is worthy of the genius Kaul. Don't forget that I am now the equivalent of a casting general..."
Kaul Somewhat down.
He had a hard time building this body, and he wanted to dress it up.
Hearing this, Ron understood.
For the Tech-Priest after all.
The larger their modified bodies and the more prosthetics and tools they have, the more welcomed and envied they will be by their colleagues.
That is also a symbol of some kind of authority.
Especially those casting generals, their bodies are almost entirely made of machinery, and their size is almost the same as that of a super-heavy tank.
Their bodies are too large and heavy, making it difficult for them to move.
You need to ride a large vehicle or use huge crawlers to move, and smoke billows everywhere you go.
Click.
While Ron was thinking, the sound of mechanical gears came. He looked up and saw that the huge mechanical body in front of him opened from the chest, and Call got out of it.
Kaul muttered: "It seems that this mechanical body is not handsome enough. I will change it to another one later..."
Good guy, it turns out to be the same thing.
The corner of Ron's mouth twitched slightly: "Okay, get down to business and don't do all these things all day long.
If you have the time, why not run the Forge World well..."
Kaur is full of confidence:
"If everything goes well with the plan, the moon will rise, surpassing the Martian forge world and becoming the greatest and most sacred forge world in the galaxy.
By then, all the old guys from the Imperial Mechanicum will have to come here to worship. !”
Ron glanced at Call and almost rolled his eyes.
Every technology here is a heresy among heresies. Why do you still worship?
If the oil guys from the empire can really come here, they will most likely regard this place as a heretical base camp.
Then treat Kaul as a black motor oil guy.
It would be nice not to send troops to attack.
Seeing that the Savior didn't believe it, Kaur didn't refute anything. He already had a perfect plan in mind.
Then let the Imperial Mechanicus see how powerful he is!
Ron and Caul got on the hover car that came to receive them, and headed all the way to the foundry...
Foundry, entrance.
Dozens of servo skulls flew in the air, and the mechanical apprentices sang binary poems praising Omnisiah.
The technical priest carries incense and surrounds the machinery, blessing it.
Ron stood quietly, waiting for the ceremony to end.
He is participating in the foundry's blessing ceremony to appease the machine spirit and allow the factory's equipment to start running smoothly.
In fact, it is similar to how Internet companies in previous lives hired Taoist priests or monks to provide servers.
Very scientific.
When——
The mechanical clock roared.
Ron stepped forward, stretched out his hand and pulled down the mechanical valve in front of him.
boom!
With the psychic arc, the huge gears began to rotate, and the entire foundry began to operate smoothly.
After the ceremony, Ron followed Kaul into the foundry to visit.
According to Kaul's introduction, this foundry uses psychic automated production technology.
The whole process is run by the program set up by the machine soul Xiaoling.
There is no need for manual work by workers or technical priests.
Among them, the ancient spirit clan's psychic shaping technology can produce various complex precision components and chips.
As long as you have the technology and the corresponding materials, you can create a perfect finished product.
As expected of the ancient spirit clan that once was glorious, those skills are simply the best among the best!
What Ron saw was densely packed mechanical arms and tracks everywhere, leaving only a few passages.
Perform maintenance and repairs on machinery to the Tech-Priest.
He observed some production processes.
In fact, it is similar to the automated factory in the previous life. A bunch of parts go in and the finished product comes out.
After watching for a while, he lost much interest and walked all the way to the end of the assembly line.
That's where the finished products are exported, with rows and rows of iron boxes neatly stacked.
Those iron boxes are finished products that have been packed uniformly by machines, just waiting to be loaded into trucks and shipped away.
“So fast?”
Ron was very surprised.
He just watched it for a while and produced such a bunch of finished products?
Kaur was quite proud:
"Based on existing data calculations, the production speed of automated equipment is more than twice as fast as that of skilled workers.
It also saves the time of taking breaks and replacing people midway, and can produce around the clock.
Taken together, the production speed of the automated casting factory is five times faster than that of the ordinary casting factory.
When there are enough raw materials, the machinery can never stop."
Hearing this, Ron. He nodded with satisfaction.
Not only that, the cost of automated production of psychic energy is lower, which not only saves labor costs, but also saves energy costs.
After all, it uses the spiritual energy of the little sun as energy.
To a certain extent, the source of these energy sources is belief, which is almost not included in the cost.
The future moon casting world will gather the entire industrial chain of weapons, armor, vehicles, and warship production.
To put it simply, you just need to transport the corresponding materials in and wait for the finished products to be transported away.
In this way, transportation and other costs can be further reduced.
The same weapons are produced using automated technology in the lunar forging world, and not only are they produced faster.
It’s a lot cheaper.
Ron walked to the pile of packaged finished products and opened the iron box. The smell of engine oil hit his face.
There are five bolters stacked in the iron box.
Looking at the labels on the iron boxes, the models of these guns are Locke Spearhead Bolter MK·Change.
He grabbed it and weighed it. It was much lighter than the bolter used by the Space Marines.
It’s really good.
These bolters are improved models, specially supplied to the Stormtroopers of the Storm Army.
After that, Ron went to see some prototypes of other new equipment.
For example, the new Sentinel mecha.
The new Sentinel mecha uses part of the technology of the Dreadnought mecha, and looks like a smaller version of the Dreadnought.
Mounted with a single heavy explosive bomb.
And the operating system is in semi-automatic mode, which greatly reduces the difficulty of operation.
Equipment of new Sentinel mechas to the heavy synthetic brigade can greatly increase the strength of the Storm Army.
Under the violent fire of heavy explosive shells, not even the Space Marines dared to bear it.
Nowadays, many technologies in the territory have been innovated.
Unfortunately, the manufacturing technology of Titans, Dreadnoughts, and Terminator armors has not yet been deciphered.
The more troublesome one is the Dreadnought Mecha.
The relevant weapons research institute plans to switch the control technology to semi-automatic mode.
Controlled by elite stormtroopers.
Once these technologies are successfully deciphered and optimized, automated production will be carried out, and Titans and Dreadnought mechas will be continuously produced on the assembly line.
Ron couldn’t even imagine that scene!
Such as the organized Titans and the Fearless Legion?
What is conceivable is that in the future, with sufficient materials, the various legions in the territory can be armed to the teeth.
When the time comes, Titans and Dreadnoughts will form armies, Terminator warriors will be everywhere, and ordinary warriors will have melta in their hands. How can you fight me?
Who comes and who dies.
War is all about resources and productivity!
After Ron walked around the Moon Forge World, he left with satisfaction.
In the future, the territory will only need to mine more and find more resources.
...
The spire mansion.
Office of the Savior.
Ron sat in front of the mechanical computer. He rubbed his face and continued to look at the files accumulated during this period.
He clicked on a newly received email and read it.
That was what Shahim and the others sent back.
Suddenly, Ron showed an excited look: "Good guy, didn't the Tyranids eat up all that galaxy?
Also... there is something abnormal about the Tyranids' trajectory?!"
