Chapter 260: The Moon Casting 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.
Every day, hundreds of large transport ships from all over the star region dock here to unload their full loads of construction materials, ore, 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 a 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 slowly came to a stop.
Whoosh——
A large assault ship flew from the ship and headed towards the moon's surface.
Inside the assault ship.
"That guy Kaur is quite fast..."
Ron was sitting on the chair, 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 teams at the rear, under the command of the technical priests, continued to build foundries 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 machines.
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 could 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 assault ship's hatch opened, Ron felt a slight burning sensation coming towards his face.
That's the heat given off by a 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 amazing is the golden sun above the statue.
It was a ring-shaped mechanical device with thick golden energy filling the center.
It looks like a real sun.
"Hi~ This idea is great!"
Ron looked up at the holy statue in front of him, admiring his heroic appearance and feeling 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 icon of the Savior in front of us 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.
That energy will be supplied to various foundries in the mechanical nest along the complex energy pipelines inside the icon.
As the energy source for psychic automated production lines.
Watching the extraction device continuously extracting the spiritual 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.
There are three main sources of energy for Little Sun today.
The most important one is the power of faith provided by the hundreds of billions of people in the star region.
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 grab 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.
Being sneaky and having fun doing 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 crimson figure floated over, blocking his sight.
It was a technical priest five or six meters tall, inlaid with various mechanical prosthetics, and wrapped in a very large red robe.
It looks a bit like a black engine oil man.
"Lord Savior!"
A slightly mean and somewhat exaggerated electronic sound came from the mechanical body.
That guy Kaul was 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 equivalent to the Forging General..."
Kaur felt a little down.
It took a lot of effort for him to build this body, and he wanted to dress it up a bit.
Hearing this, Ron understood.
After all, for a tech-priest.
The larger their modified bodies and the more prosthetic bodies and tools they have, the more welcomed and envied they will be by their colleagues.
That's also a symbol of some kind of authority.
Especially those cast generals, their bodies are almost entirely made of machinery, and their size is almost the same as that of super heavy tanks.
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 a real product.
Ron's mouth twitched slightly: "Okay, do your business properly and don't do all this all day long.
If you have this skill, why not run the forging world well..."
Kaur is full of confidence:
“If all goes well with the plan, the Moon will rise and surpass the forge world of Mars to become the greatest and most sacred forge world in the galaxy.
By then, all the old guys from the Imperial Mechanicus will have to come here to worship! "
Ron glanced at Call and almost rolled his eyes.
Every technology here is a heresy among heresies when taken out, so why worship it?
If those 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, Kaul didn't refute anything. He already had a perfect plan in mind.
Then let the Imperial Mechanicus see how powerful he is!
Ron and Call 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 mechanical apprentices chanted binary poems praising the Omnisiah.
Technical priests carried incense and surrounded the machinery, blessing it.
Ron stood quietly, waiting for the ceremony to end.
He was 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!
Along 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 Kaur, 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 had once been glorious, those technologies were 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 it for a while, he lost much interest and walked all the way to the end of the assembly line.
There is the exit of finished products, 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?
Kaul was quite proud:
“Based on available data, automated equipment produces more than twice as fast as skilled workers.
It also saves the time of resting and replacing people midway, and can produce around the clock.
Taken together, the production speed of an automated foundry is five times faster than that of a regular foundry.
When there are enough raw materials, the machinery can never stop! "
Hearing this, Ron 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 some extent, the source of these energies is faith, which can almost be excluded from the cost.
In the future, the Moon Forge World will gather the entire industrial chain of weapons, armor, vehicles, and warships.
In short, you only need to bring in the corresponding materials and wait for the finished products to be shipped away.
In this way, transportation costs can be further compressed.
The same weapons are produced using automation technology in the Moon Forge World, which not only produces faster.
It is also much cheaper.
Ron walked to the pile of packaged finished products and opened the iron box. The smell of engine oil hit him.
There were five stacked bolt guns in the iron box.
Looking at the label on the iron box, the model of these guns is Locke Spearhead Bolt Gun MK·Modified.
He grabbed a handful and weighed it. It was much lighter than the bolt guns used by Space Marines.
It was really good.
These bolt guns are improved models, specially supplied to the Storm Troopers of the Storm Group Army.
Afterwards, Ron went to see some prototypes of other new equipment.
For example, the new Sentinel mecha.
The new Sentinel mecha uses some of the technology of the Dreadnought mecha, and looks like a smaller Dreadnought.
It is equipped with a single-link heavy bomb.
And the operating system is in semi-automatic mode, which greatly reduces the difficulty of operation.
When the new Sentinel mecha is equipped to the heavy synthetic brigade, it can greatly increase the strength of the Storm Army.
Under the heavy bomb shooting like a storm, even the Space Marines dare not take it head-on.
Nowadays, many technologies in the territory have been innovated.
Unfortunately, the manufacturing technology of Titan, Dreadnought mecha, and Terminator armor has not been deciphered yet.
Among them, the more troublesome one is the Dreadnought mecha.
The relevant weapons research institute plans to switch the control technology to semi-automatic mode.
It will be controlled by elite storm soldiers.
Once these technologies are successfully deciphered and optimized, and then automated production is carried out, Titans and Dreadnought mechas will be continuously produced on the assembly line.
Ron dare not even think about that scene!
For example, a complete Titan and Dreadnought Legion?
What can be imagined is that in the future, with sufficient materials, the various legions in the territory can be armed to the teeth.
By then, Titans and Dreadnoughts will be assembled, Terminator warriors will be everywhere, and ordinary warriors will have a hot melt in their hands. How can you fight me?
Whoever comes will die.
War is all about resources and productivity!
After a tour of the Moon Forge World, Ron left with satisfaction.
In the future, the territory only needs to mine more and find more resources.
…
Spire Mansion.
Savior's Office.
Ron sat in front of the mechanical computer, rubbed his face, and continued to check the files accumulated during this period.
He clicked on a newly received email and read it.
It was sent back by Shashim and others.
Suddenly, Ron showed an excited look: "Good guy, the Tyranids didn't eat up that galaxy?
And... the activity trajectory of the Tyranids is a bit abnormal?!"
