Chapter 1257 The Expansion Map of the First Order

,

What does the First Order earn from the Imperator-class battleship Theocracy?

Of course it's the material.

One-sentence explanation: The predecessor of the Divine Power, the Yuxie, was fully eroded by the energy of the subspace during its drifting in the subspace, and its materials became extraordinary, so its value increased.

10,000 years is a very meaningful hurdle (it must be soaked in the subspace environment for 10,000 years, and it is better to soak it continuously instead of accumulating it intermittently), and the materials of the Theocracy have successfully crossed it.

For this reason, Kane specially approved that while recycling the materials of the Theocracy, reprint a Theocracy, just according to its performance when it came off the assembly line, without reducing it.

Kane even let Miranda use the spirit bone coating on a trial basis.

In this way, the Theocracy became the No. 1 Emperor-class battleship in the entire empire.

One of the important reasons why the Eldar race lost their spirit bones was that after the birth of Slaanesh, they used howls to attack in a large range. Most of the survivors of the spirit race were because the spirit bones weakened the power of howling to a considerable extent. Only then was he saved from being devoured by Slaanesh.

You must know that at that time, even the gods of the spirit race were swallowed by Slaanesh.

Therefore, this spiritual bone does have the effect of shielding and isolating certain negative energies in the subspace. After this material was analyzed by Kane, his own technology was inevitably added, thus giving birth to two versions.

One is the universal version, which is suitable for almost all universes.

The other is a dedicated version, especially powerful in the Warhammer 40k universe.

The coating added to the Shenquan, like electroplating, is a special version.

Therefore, the appearance of the new Theocracy is neither the black of traditional Gothic ships, nor the light gray-white of Eldar ships, but silver-blue.

It is worth mentioning that after the first order built a new ship, the Theocracy, Kane felt a pain in the ass.

The warhammer 40k ship is really too big, not to mention the hull that is several kilometers long, but the pointed U-shaped bow in front is made of the best Adamantium alloy, tens of meters thick...

If such a ship is only supplied by a star system, it is really impossible to build a few ships.

Now Khulna Polaris Port,

The most eye-catching is the divine right under construction.

If the production capacity is maximized and enough shipbuilding and printing units are mobilized, it will be offline in two months, but Kane has set 18 months.

In this way, including the subsequent restoration of the Advanced, the direct fleet of the Gothic sector will not be delayed to compete with the mixed expeditionary fleet.

Of course, even if it is eighteen months, it is still a fantastic speed. After all, it takes hundreds of years to manufacture a large Warhammer 40k ship, and it is not uncommon to build a ship every thousand years. This is still the normal speed of not working.

The first order's shipbuilding speed is incredible, and it will inevitably affect logistics.

Although it is basically a renovation now, there is still a high demand for raw materials. In the future, building new ships will inevitably increase demand.

Therefore, strengthening logistics can start now.

It is precisely because of the consideration of this need and the reluctance to expose Khulna prematurely.

The First Order built, built, or assembled (transmitted from the Big Dipper star area) the new space dock cluster in the Antioch Fortress.

The Antioch Fortress is the space fortress used by Lowansberg to conceal the existence of the Earth Star where the families of naval officers and soldiers are housed, and it is also the space fortress where the Earth Star Gateway is located.

The space fortress is a frozen dwarf planet with a diameter of about 2000km. Originally, there was only a site in its northern hemisphere, covering an area of ​​several square kilometers.

After Luwansberg planned to use it, he also spent some oceans trying to install the facade.

Later, Kane was dissatisfied with the progress of the construction, so he let him roll aside to applaud and praise, and just blow the water outside.

As a result, the dwarf planet quickly changed its appearance, and now its diameter has been reduced by nearly 300km, because its ice layer has been taken out of the starfish as a "sea", further solving the problems of water use and ocean economy.

Dwarf planets that have gone to ice caps of more than 100 kilometers are left with a large amount of silicon, that is, rocks, still dotted with ice caps and glaciers, and then there are a large number of industrial bases.

Each base is a city without a name, only a number.

Today, the high orbit of the dwarf planet has a star ring, or it is more appropriate to call it a star belt, because it is like a super bullet belt. The bullets are naturally battleships, and they are inserted side by side in the dock.

The Antioch Fortress also got its name after the Star Ring.

This place is also known as the No. 7 independent construction world. You can tell from the name that it is the style of the Mechanicus, and it is indeed in cooperation with the Mechanicus.

Of course, this is an external statement. In fact, people from the Mechanicus, technology priests and the like, come here mainly to study, and at most they have a postgraduate status.

In this era, the real situation of Mechanicus is actually quite embarrassing. A one-sentence explanation is a castle in the air, and most of the knowledge is lost with the damage of computer equipment. Only some are left on paper.

You must know that paper has a lifespan, and how many years can it be stored if it is kept properly? What's more, the paper records at the beginning were just out of the procedure and buried dust in the warehouse. It was not safe to say that they were kept properly. When they were needed, they found that many of them had already turned into scum...

Knowledge lost, how to function? stc!

Standard production modules, all-encompassing, covering almost all fields.

Of course, it also has a large classification.

For example, stc, which specializes in the manufacture of mechanical equipment.

Under the Mechanicus' tireless archaeological efforts all over the galaxy, as well as their domineering (all mine!) search, they managed to maintain a relatively complete production system by relying on the STC dug out from grave-digging.

The rest is up to the brain, that is, metaphysics, which is also a major reason for the origin of the divine religion. After all, transcendence does exist, and idealism works, so science and magic are mixed.

And this time I came to study, mainly to complete the knowledge of dating, especially the principles and formulas involved in basic science. In order to apply what I have learned, it is necessary to participate in the construction on site.

In addition, the people from Mechanicus also came to obtain the technology of prosthetic body.

The prosthetic body transformation they use themselves, in Kane's words, is mechanical punk, with a touch of magic, not cyber at all. Not to mention the problem of aesthetics, the performance is really not very good.

In addition, in terms of biochemistry, the two sides also have a lot of topics to discuss. The founding of the 21st Space Marine Corps, known as the "Cursed Founding Army", has exposed the fact that the Mechanicus has retrogressed in biotechnology and has become more and more metaphysical.

Kane didn't want to see this trend. After all, the Mechanicus had a bit of a reputation for talking about technology. Talking about Chaofan is really the younger brother of younger brothers. Just paying tuition fees can become the number one pit in the empire.

The Mechanicus also knew that they were about to become Orcs who always said 'I'm thinking about...'. They also really want to return to the rational and righteous way, but there is no way!

There is now.

Kane is not stingy with the knowledge of basic science, and has basically completed the science of dating, so he uses basic. It is because the laws of each universe are different. Miranda is now checking knowledge. After all, although I have been embarrassed in the Big Dipper region for 200 years, there seems to be a special place shielded by the law force field, which is still different from the outside.

The Adeptus Mechanicus returned their knowledge in return.

More than half garbage, but there are still some sparkly creative things that Miranda deserves to eat. In this way, it is not surprising that the space dock here is filled with a strong academic atmosphere.

In addition to repairing the ships in the Gothic sector, the Mechanicus specially collected and arranged various ships to come over. While repairing, it is also a process of analysis and deliberation on the design concept.

After passing through these various ships, at least in terms of ships, the knowledge and thinking are completely straightened out.

For Mechanicus, the benefits are self-evident. It can be said that they are recovering their vitality with each passing day.

In the eyes of the soldiers, it is the most exciting and happiest thing for a broken ship to magically become a new ship.

It is not an exaggeration to call the restoration process 'miraculous'. In their eyes, the equipment was seen swinging back and forth on the track like a shuttle of a textile machine, and then the ship was melted away layer by layer like slices. .

On top of it, the equipment was also swinging, and the ship was 'brushed' out layer by layer, and it was also cooled down. The entire ship is equivalent to being melted down and rebuilt, and it is too modest to say that it is refurbished.

But in fact, it is refurbishment, which is mainly reflected in the balance of a large number of calculations. After the holographic scanning of the ship is completed, the template is simply inserted into the template to obtain new data, and the printing begins. The materials are basically disassembled from the original ship. Of course, additional materials can be added and the formula can be changed, but that will inevitably increase the cost. These ships are bigger than each other, and it will not be a little bit if it is added.

So basically do not add, just optimize, this is renovation.

The reason why it looks like a remake, and it is indeed a remake, is mainly due to two characteristics that reflect the style. One is the printing technology at the level of molecular control, which means that the material is reduced to the basic elements. The other one is that the energy sea is used, and it is not bad for money.

In such a 'repair' method, the outfitting part is more time-consuming.

After all, it is not a holographic printing, and the internal equipment is installed separately except for a few large pieces. Including tables, chairs, benches, bedding, etc.

The turbulent robots form a transport chain. Under the efficiency planning, they complete the follow-up steps at an unimaginable speed. Day and night, it still takes a lot of time to really go offline.

Of course, in the eyes of the imperial people, this kind of repair is really too conscientious. Checking in with a bag is not a boast. Compared with the past, the cabins of sailors are better than those of officers, and it is not covered.

In fact, the most exciting thing for officers and soldiers is the gravity system. Many small ships of the Imperial Navy (with a total length of less than 2,000 meters) basically do not have enough gravity systems, and they are either damaged or taken away for misuse. Therefore, the officers and soldiers of the small ship are in great pain, and gravity disease is a major problem.

But for the repaired battleship, the gravity system is only the foundation, all-weather, all-area, there is gravity. This alone will cheer up many people.

This is also a major reason why officers and soldiers of large ships do not mind changing ships.

Moreover, the internal space of the repaired ship has been more or less redesigned, and the lighting is more humane. The sense of aggrievedness and darkness has been greatly reduced. Small ships can experience the experience that was only experienced on large and giant ships in the past. comfortable feeling.

People who have compared before and after are naturally happy to fly.

In fact, the happiest ones are the officers and soldiers of the transport ship.

That's right, the transport ship is also part of the Imperial Navy. Although by Kane's standards, their lives are not human.

These transport ship officers and soldiers, especially the soldiers, who have never disembarked for almost all their lives, live in poor-quality capsule cabins, eat synthetic food that can be used as bullets, and work with their eyes open until they sleep...they are still turned into or parts, all There is no need for discipline and reminders, but like a biological clock, you can always find your place and the work you should do, and it is running so intelligently.

And lower than the officers, the transport ship is equivalent to being sent into exile, basically there is no merit to be earned, and they will die, including violent death.

For the sake of future material handling needs, Kane plans to strengthen the transportation capacity. This includes the allocation of ten space docks to repair the Empire's standard-class transport ships.

During this process, due to the actual situation, treatment and medical examinations were also arranged for the personnel on the transport ship. Among them, most of the seafarers have replaced biochemical prosthetic bodies.

These mass-produced ones are like clones, but they actually use too many chemical catalysts and various materials, which are already very different from natural human bodies, and the stuff that can only be called biochemical prosthetics costs a lot. Inexpensive, especially in the context of ultra-cheap energy.

But for sailors, it's like a new life. It is not difficult to imagine how happy they are, and some even almost go crazy because they are too happy. Fortunately, the prosthetic body has the function of emotional suppression. It was originally used to fight fear and tension, but it turns out to fight joy first.

The repair of the transport ship is not free.

Coupled with the transfer of other ship repair costs, it can be said that every repaired transport ship, although still in the name of the Navy, is classified as a non-staff fleet of the First Order.

They will still join in the heavy logistics and transportation, but the main purpose is to ensure the first order.

Of course, in the eyes of the empire, this should have been a priority. Now that they don't have to worry about it, the goal has been achieved, and a considerable amount of money has been saved. Wow.

It is precisely because it has become an extra-staff fleet that the restoration is more attentive, and a higher proportion of magic changes has also been added.

In terms of performance, the modified standard class is almost the same as the mainstream guaranteed class.

However, in fact, Kane pays more attention to the big data collection of seafarers. In Warhammer 40,000, the human transport ship officers and soldiers of the empire are really a group that has experienced the difficulty of hell. The ship operation data they have is worth collecting.

With the rate at which ten standard-class transport ships were repaired and rolled off the assembly line almost every two days, the outer fleet expanded rapidly, and the escort warships of the First Order also began to join.

The light warships of the First Order of the Major Arcana series began to appear in front of the world.

The First Order does not have a ship type of frigate. The only light battleships are destroyers, raid ships, scout ships, and landing ships.

The escorts are all tank-class and world-class destroyers. The former is capable of fighting comprehensively, while the latter is good at defense. There is no specific ship name, only a number, and it is a five-digit number.

The destroyers of the First Order, which have been deliberately enlarged to a certain extent, are only about 800 meters in length. There are slight differences between different models, but they are basically within this category.

In terms of size, compared to the same type of ships of the empire, it can only be said to be small, even the ships of the imperial boat class.

However, the combat effectiveness of the Empire's cruisers also had to be in high integrity to have the firepower of a chariot-class destroyer. There was nothing comparable in terms of agility, range, and accuracy.

Not long after the first order's escort fleet officially joined the battle order, they encountered a raiding group on the edge of a wild area outside the Gothic star sector.

More than 30 pirate ships of various types tried to bully the escort fleet which only had a five-ship formation.

As a result, the three chariot-class escort fleets took the initiative to attack, and the enemy opened fire first. As soon as they got started, the robbers were confused. Who is robbing whom? Is our ambush and sneak attack gone first?

Then they experienced the horror of the chariot.

First, the laser cannon hit the pirate ship with high precision at a distance of 10 light minutes.

Not long after, the space torpedo arrived and drilled through the hole made by the laser cannon. It not only exploded itself, but also detonated the air, turning the pirate ship into an oven.

Moreover, the chariot class has been advancing at high speed, using the energy cone to cut a pirate ship obliquely into two pieces like a cutter.

Can't be crushed, can't be bumped, what kind of chariot is it called? The weight of a chariot-class destroyer is not high, but it can be made up for by its speed. Like a sharp dagger, if a big ship pierces through it, a small ship will tear apart.

The pirates had a numerical advantage, and some took advantage of the chariot level to leave, and directly attacked the fleet.

At this time, the world-class destroyer showed its strength.

World-class destroyers are equipped with an MA, just like most modern destroyers on Earth have anti-submarine helicopters. Capricorn ma, follow the setting that the Capricorn Saint Seiya possesses the Holy Sword, and is equipped with a ship-cutting sword.

Besides Ma, the most proud of the world class is the floating energy shield and the laser cannon defense array. The large shield and spear are world-class features.

The floating shields of two world-class destroyers can provide shelter for the entire fleet in a tight formation. The laser cannon defense array is aimed at torpedo missiles.

The pirate ship that was trying to take advantage of it began to be abused from a long distance away. The huge plasma beam of Zhanjiandao was very eye-catching, and suddenly lit up, like a sword in hand. Ma can even stand on the enemy ship and chop like a human slaughtering a whale.

Where have the pirates seen this kind of fighting? Well said piu piu piu! What about bang bang bang?

The two Capricorns are like killing gods. Before the pirates entered the effective range of artillery fire, their mentality had already collapsed.

The pirates also have carrier-based aircraft.

But they soon discovered that the carrier-based aircraft was not as flexible as the Ma, which seemed to be significantly larger than the carrier-based aircraft.

ma has many posture control nozzles, the most important thing is the strong power.

As far as this motivation is strong, the pirates have already lost.

With a strong power, the protection threshold of the energy shield can be very high, the mobility is also strong, and the power of the ship-slashing knife is also guaranteed.

It can be said that although Ma's heart is small, its power is comparable to that of a pirate ship, but the energy efficiency of the two is obviously not at the same level. Therefore, there is no suspense about masturbating pirate ships, or most of the existing ships in this era.

In the end, the looting group couldn't even fire at close range, so they just died and fled. And more than half of the warships have become the footnotes of the escort fleet's fame in the first battle.

Under normal circumstances, even if the pirates fought against the navy, it would not be so tragic. After all, the manufacturing cycle of ships is long, and the cycle of pirates is even longer. Every time the fleet goes into battle, they lose double-digit numbers. The imperial navy with a total of over 100 million ships cannot afford to lose, let alone pirates.

The warships of the first order, following this confrontation, entered the field of vision of military personnel. Some tactical experts lamented after learning the whole story of the battle: the new era is coming, and the inherent combat mode and ships will gradually be eliminated.

In fact, the empire has learned various types of tactical styles from other alien races, so it will not be dumbfounded when faced with the new tactics of the First Order warships. seen? Didn't you come here as usual?

The reason why some experts spoke with emotion was mainly because this was the transformation of the empire itself, and Kane was very popular because of the holy gate and holy water, so there was such an echo.
