Although Soshyan has long had the idea of expanding plasma equipment production capacity and improving manufacturing processes, the foundry world around Nessen 4 is not particularly good at plasma technology, and Soshyan also hopes to diversify investment and does not want to
All eggs are put in one basket. Even if they are very close to the world like Zhao Akada now, it is difficult to guarantee what will happen in the future——
The first time he met Reza's exploration fleet, he had the idea of cooperation.
This is not just for the Chapter, Reza also supplies many Chapters and Astra Militarum armaments. This kind of weapon can provide considerable tactical advantages to the Imperial Armed Forces, and Reza is also relatively open-minded technically, and may be able to
Improvements are being made based on the existing ones.
Many of the empire's excellent weapons were eventually lost because they were out of value. Soshyan did not intend to continue to monopolize this kind of weapons and let these things rot in his own hands. After all...
No one can tell what will happen in the future.
"Indeed, I have observed that the workmanship of this weapon is very poor, especially the key plasma energy storage device and heat dissipation device. The processing accuracy of the parts is far from the standard it should be. If it is more serious.
....This is a crime, a crime against the blessing of the God of All Machines."
Dieterian was very unhappy with what Deeji Katona said, because he was responsible for the manufacturing of these weapons, so a binary language that Soshyan could not understand floated out of his audio equipment.
But Deeji Katona obviously had no intention of arguing with him and kept looking at Soshiyan.
"Chapter Commander, what is your request?"
"Technology can be shared, no problem, but I hope you can help us build a large-scale production line on our home planet that meets Reza standards."
Deejay Katona was barely thinking.
"Can."
"And the strike cruiser we just captured is in very bad condition. I wonder if you have any way to repair it now?"
"We have a temporary dock and a large number of repair ships, which can guarantee that it will be repaired within 36 standard Terra hours, at least to ensure that its speed can be restored to its original level."
"There is nothing else. I also hope to have long-term cooperation with an enlightened forging world like Reza."
Dije Katona looked at Soshiyang and seemed a little surprised.
"That's it?"
"That's all."
Deejay Katona moved in his chair, and then he raised his chin slightly. The chattering sages around him suddenly stopped, and then put the weapon on the table.
Then Reza's delegation had a silent exchange for about three minutes. Soshyan knew that they were talking on an encrypted channel, so he was not impatient and just waited patiently on his chair.
Soon, they came to the conclusion, but this time it was not Deejay Katona who spoke, but the sage Cassim Jo Marte Gonsalves.
It also confirmed Soshyan's guess that that man was indeed the number two person in the fleet.
"In the name of Omnisiah, Chapter Commander Soshyan, in order to thank you for your generosity, we have decided to give you a reward."
"Oh? I'm all ears."
"This matter is related to the second and most important mission of our trip... The space hulk Olerus has appeared."
Soshyan blinked.
"A hulk."
"This is no ordinary hulk, it probably contains the Mechanical Ark Blood Red."
"Ark Mechanical!?"
Soshyan was stunned for a moment, and finally realized why the other party was so cautious.
The Mechanic Ark is a huge and almost mythical starship in the Mechanicus fleet. These warships are also considered to be part of the Mechanicus' knowledge exploration plan and will endlessly explore the star sea.
The ship, often led by a respected Archmagos of Exploration, travels across the stars in search of their ultimate Holy Grail: a working STC or other form of relic technology.
For the most part, Ark Mechanicus is loaded with the best technology the Adeptus Mechanicus has to offer, and is equipped with weapons more powerful, with greater range, and significantly greater defensive capabilities than most of the Imperium's warships.
But Mechanical Ark is so precious and extremely rare that the discovery of an intact Mechanical Ark is considered as miraculous as the discovery of a complete STC.
Currently, only a handful of Mechanical Arks are still active.
"How could a mechanical Ark become a hulk?"
"The Blood Red is from Mars and was born in the early days of the Great Crusade. After the Horus Heresy, it was assigned to the Blood Angels and stationed in the orbit of Baal. After that, records about it disappeared. When it appeared again, it seemed to be
It was part of the space hulk Oreros that was discovered by the Rogue Trader Grom, and then the ship disappeared again until now——"
"Then how did you find out?"
"In the period of 892.m41, the Cadian 22nd Regiment was dispatched with one of our small exploration fleets to explore an undeveloped area on the edge of the Storm Star Territory. Later, the regiment and the exploration fleet disappeared at the same time. The last images transmitted were analyzed.
It was concluded that they encountered a storm in the warp and were absorbed by a huge hulk, which was most likely Oleros, and that we received a distress signal from the exploration fleet two years ago, which was enough to confirm it
Once again leaving the warp and entering the physical universe."
"Wait a minute, the Cadian 22nd Regiment...I just fought with them."
"The Qadians concealed the news and rebuilt the 22nd Regiment afterwards."
"So now you plan to go to the location of the ruined ship and find the lost Mechanical Ark?"
Kassim Jo Marte Gonsalves burst into a burst of code, then fell silent, his appendages twitching.
"This is for the glory of the God of All Machines."
Once again, Soshyan smiled briefly.
"Then I guess it's still in the Tempestus, right?"
"Yes."
"Are you the only one who knows this news?"
Kassim Jo Marte Gonsalves paused for a moment and shook his head. This was the most humane gesture he had ever made.
"uncertain."
"The remains of a mechanical ark, this is a fragrant piece of fresh meat that will attract countless predators and scavengers."
Soshiyang frowned, as if he was deep in speculation, his face expressionless.
At this time, Thor suddenly bent down and whispered something in his ear, but the Mechanicus cultists heard nothing.
Apparently there was some kind of hearing-blocking device on Soshyan's chair.
Upon hearing Sol's words, Soshyan's eyes flashed for a moment, then he leaned forward and crossed his hands under his chin.
"Sage Qasim Jo Marte Gonsalves, what is it about the Blood Red that attracts you so much?"
"Mechanical Ark is the incarnation of the Mechanical God——"
"No, I mean inside, what it carries."
Kassim Jo Marte Gonsalves said nothing, and Soshyan just waited. It took a while before Didier Katona took over.
"Captain Soshyan, this involves a special confidentiality agreement, forgive us -"
"Is it related to the Blood Angels?"
As soon as Soshiyang said these words, Deejay Katona became silent, but in the eyes of those who were interested, it was already a kind of default signal.
