Chapter 2783 Auction Gala


Chapter 2783 Auction Event

Naisen 4’s orbiting structure has been built to be extremely grand and far beyond the ordinary world. There is a huge space station second only to the main shipyard of the planet, but this space station It is not open to the public. On its semicircular main building, there is a huge symbol etched on it, a sign of two crossed swords, which means that it is the military port of the Astral Knights Chapter, and it is also a military port that is not allowed to set foot on. restricted area.

Normally, the ones parked here are battleships, transport ships or other space vehicles belonging to the war group, but today it is a bit extra lively here.

Warships of different shapes but all red in color crowded the port area. They were engraved with different marks, symbolizing the different worlds they set out from, Mars, Reza, and Huangquan No. 8 , Steel Ball, Grea, Phaethon, Griffin IV, Urdesh, Atta Central Star, Ma'kande II, Angstrom, etc., more than twenty-five large and small The small forge world sent their sages who were best at analysis and linguistic logic.

And they came here for what is most cherished and valued by the followers of the Mechanicum, the stc template.

This sounds amazing. How can an Astartes warband have so many stc templates? Being an Astral Knight must be an exception, because their chapter leader is so legendary that it is difficult for people to doubt it. The magnificent Maelstrom Expedition alone may have given him a lot of gains, a lot. The Forge World also participated in the Maelstrom Expedition, and their exploration fleet is still operating in the Maelstrom area, where it has been proven that there are a large number of ancient ruins worthy of excavation.

As for whether the stcs in this auction are trophies obtained from the maelstrom, no one will delve into it. After all, in the empire, if you have to find a group of people who don’t care so much about the "correct process", the mechanical priests will definitely Bearing the brunt, in their eyes the result is the only one, and it doesn't matter what happened in the middle.

After all, it is nothing new for the Adeptus Mechanicus to purchase technological products of unknown origin from certain war groups or Astartes that behave strangely.

In this auction, Soshyan took out nearly half of the STC he had obtained from Ulanor in the past. If he hadn't been worried about "depreciation" and aroused some unnecessary suspicion, he really planned to get rid of the Legion. All except biological and medical technologies for personal use were taken out, but even so, the number of STC items auctioned reached an astonishing 52 items. You must know that only 11 items were sold in the first auction.

Soshiyang always has a sense of urgency now. Instead of holding on to gold and silver, it is better to spend things in exchange for something more practical.

Of course, his generosity really frightened the sages. They didn't expect there to be so many before they came.

But you can have too much of anything in the Mechanicus, and you can never have too much STC. This represents the future level and strength of a forging world. No matter how many resources are thrown at it, it must be obtained.

During the 23-hour auction process, the sages showed unparalleled enthusiasm and strength, which also made Soshyan realize the true strength of the Adeptus Mechanicus - it is not that they have no production capacity, but they lack With a sense of "dedication", you will never give up anything other than your responsibilities unless absolutely necessary.

This auction also adopts the "base object" rule, but the exchange items have changed. Basic weapons and equipment are no longer an option, they are all "big items", either terminators or super heavy tanks. Or a battleship. Especially for those high-value electronic products STC, Soshyan stipulated that they can only be exchanged for warships.

As for what a chapter does with so many warships, no one will ask, and naturally there is no need to answer. The Adeptus Mechanicus is actually not that serious about "imperial order".

The final result made Soshyan very satisfied. The powerful Mars still got most of the STC, a total of 20 items. Of course, the sages of Mars still have a sharper "political sense" than other forging worlds. Because Soshiyang had used STC to trade battleships from Mars before, and now he took out so many, so he asked Soshiyang where he got so many STCs from, and Soshiyang simply said that they came from Red. Picked up from a pirate's treasury.

There is nothing more to say here. Mars paid a high price for these STCs, 5 Cardinal-class heavy cruisers, 3 Tyrant-class heavy cruisers, and 1 Mars-class battlecruiser. It will be awakened from the ship graveyard of Saturn, and in the name of dispatch, use the modified naval organization code to steal and replace it as part of the destroyed fleet, and then secretly transfer it to the fleet of the Astral Knights.

As for whether this is considered stealing the empire's property, anyway, this is Mars' matter, and Soshyan has no way to interfere.

After all, most of the empire's affairs are just a confused account in the end. At least it can be determined that Mars has done this kind of thing. In the past ten thousand years, how many ships have "quietly" escaped from what was supposed to be It's hard to tell when emergency war preparations have disappeared from the ship graveyard everywhere.

It is worth mentioning that Soshyan did not expect that the Cardinal class could still be pulled out of the ship cemetery on Mars. You must know that this ship type can be traced back to the early and mid-term of the Great Expedition. This is A light spear ship, its tonnage and size are slightly larger than that of the Moon class, and its side firepower is not as good as that of the Moon class. However, it has two large light spear turrets on the spine, which is more in line with Soshyan's ship aesthetic.

If it were anyone else, they might think that Mars was perfunctory and exchanged completely obsolete ships for precious stcs, but Soshyan’s research on imperial ships for so many years is now considered He is half a naval expert, and he is quite satisfied with the Cardinal-class ship type, because the escape of this ship is not entirely due to its earlier design, but more importantly, due to its subsequent improved models, that is Influence of the Styx (also translated as Hades) class heavy cruiser.

On the eve of the Gothic War, the Cardinal class had been retired from the Imperial Navy one after another. A sage from a certain forging world noticed some shortcomings of the Cardinal class, mainly due to the limitations of the energy supply system. The spear could not fire continuously for a long time, resulting in poor firepower sustainability of the ship. Based on the principle of waste utilization, we began to develop the follow-up ship type of the Cardinal class. It is said that the sage who designed the Styx class found a The alien spacecraft subsequently obtained the technology to improve the Cardinal-class light spear from above, and presided over the transformation of a new battleship based on the Cardinal for experimentation. This battleship was also listed as a separate model, so It's Styx level.

The design of the Styx class was successful. It repaired the light spear flaw of the Cardinal class without making major changes. It could have revitalized all retired old ship types, but the Empire's affairs As always, it developed in the worst direction. This experimental ship actually mutinied during the Gothic War! This is bad news. In the atmosphere of the empire, one stain can easily lead to the entire thing being completely negated. Coupled with the previous rumors of alien technology, the Styx class was sentenced to death, and the Cardinal class was also completely It has been reduced to a "corpse" that will never be turned over in the ship cemetery. Now it can only be seen occasionally in a very few border fleets. For example, there is a Cardinal class in the Baka fleet in the Storm Star Territory.
