In the empire, it seemed that strength was always linked to instability. Soshiyang had nothing to do about it and asked instead:
"Is it difficult to make?"
"It is very difficult and time-consuming, but as long as we concentrate our efforts, we can still provide you with 1-2 sets as quickly as possible..."
Soshyan noticed a question that the other party deliberately avoided, but he also guessed it.
"The manufacturing cost of the flash cannon is very high, right?"
The other party nodded. Obviously this was not a pie in the sky. Soshiyang guessed that the other party gave him this gift not only to thank him, but also to use his power to collect a large amount of resources and train their high-end manufacturing team.
and the equipment development team, after all, the emergence of Star Steel gave them hope of prosperity.
"How high?"
"It requires about...1892 rare minerals and 214 special raw materials, some of which are completely monopolized by individual casting worlds..."
Soshyan sighed softly.
"In the past, the Forbidden Army could mobilize the resources of the entire empire to satisfy them in making this luxury weapon. But sage, I don't have this ability, but I still thank you for your kindness... Well, why don't you do it first?
A weakened version of the solution is coming out, which can reduce the power, make the cooling system less extreme, and reduce the cost. We will discuss it at that time to see if it is feasible.
?The most important thing for Alatimos is to restore its former R&D and production capabilities as soon as possible. As for the original version... If you trust me, you can leave some information and I will let people study it. If there is an opportunity in the future, I will also
I want to see this powerful weapon show off its power on the battlefield, but after all, I can’t eat it in one bite and become a fat man, so my idea is to fight slowly and quickly, and run quickly.”
"Sir, you are indeed a genius in strategy and planning, and this information was originally given to you."
"Ha, I'm not a genius, I'm just forced by the situation to use my brain more in this area."
After the sage from Alatimos left, Soshyan stretched out his hand to pull the image closer, examined the weapon carefully, and then said:
"Dietrian, come here."
"Yes, Chapter Commander."
Soon, Dietrian came over.
"Any orders?"
"Look at this thing, the Alatimos Flash Cannon, the secret weapon of the Imperial Army. It is said that it is powerful enough to destroy a Titan in one blow."
Dietrian immediately became interested and inserted the metal tentacles into the panel. After about ten minutes, he said to Soshyan:
"It is a very, very complex weapon. I only roughly understand part of the operating mechanism. If it can be realized, it will indeed be very powerful, because its energy will go through 26 compression procedures, which is equivalent to forcibly compressing the energy of a ship's light spear to
An incredible threshold, and then released... Before seeing it, I would not believe this kind of thing, it almost violates the rules of physics."
"Which one is stronger or weaker than the Eldar Dark Spear?"
"Chapter Commander, I can't answer, but from my personal point of view, there shouldn't be much difference between the two. But again, the problem is that Eldar weapons have almost no heat dissipation problems, but I feel that the heat dissipation of this weapon is very unoptimistic."
Soshyan nodded.
"After all, spiritual bones are non-physical materials. You should study this light flash cannon first. After I go back, I will ask Wan Bian to brainstorm whether there is a way to optimize it. The biggest problem is that the cost is too high. I guess the Forbidden Army will also
There are not many doors left.”
Then he stretched out his hand, called up the star map, and then seemed to be looking for somewhere. Dietrian thought that he had nothing to do, and turned to leave, but at this time Soshyan had found the place he was looking for, and suddenly spoke
road:
"Would you like to run a forge world?"
Soshyan's straightforward words made Dietrian unable to react. He turned around and was stunned for two seconds before speaking:
"You mean..."
"It doesn't mean anything. I just want to ask you if you want to manage a forging world? You are a talented priest and have made great contributions to the legion over the years. I think your talents should have a wider space to display."
Dietrian looked at the star map and quickly understood what Soshyan meant.
"You want to rebuild High Valia?"
Soshyan shook his head.
"High Valia is gone. They are just a group of traitors running around. I want to build a new forging world here."
"This is... why? The resources required to rebuild a forging world are difficult to estimate, and it will take a long time..."
He raised his hand to enlarge the star map, pointing to the middle of the Storm Star Territory.
"In the past, the distribution of the steel ring was very good, connecting from the middle of the Pacific Star Territory to the middle of the Storm Star Territory, so that the resources and production capacity of the Adeptus Mechanicus could radiate to the two star territories, but now... you see, the Storm Star Territory
The main forge worlds in the Star Territory are all distributed at the edge of the galaxy, so it is very easy for one corner to collapse and it is difficult to support from other directions. This is also
The most fatal problem of the Storm Star Field is that it is a hollow star field, and its prosperous parts are all distributed on the edge of the star field, like an open palm, so when the enemy comes over, the most they can do is slap the opponent.
A slap cannot make a real counterattack. If the Tyranids invade in large numbers in the future, humans must have a strong central fulcrum if they want to resist."
Then he moved his hand towards the Solstice Star.
"Now the Suffering Alliance has established a stronghold here as a forward support point against Tyranids, but it is not easy to get support from other forging worlds because they are too far away. This is why I consider High Valia. Of course
There is another reason... Talos often said that you are a man of great talent. Although your past status was not very good, and the process of joining the Astral Knights was relatively accidental, the help you have provided to the legion over the years has been
It’s obvious to all.”
As he spoke, Soshyan sighed softly.
"To be honest, over the past hundred years, I have come into contact with and met as many mechanical priests as there are fish swimming in the river, but the vast majority of them actually have no talent. Fate has never been fair to everyone.
No matter how hard people work and how conscientious they are, they will never be able to offset some of the things they are born with, so it is indeed a waste to let your talents continue to be buried in the arsenal."
Dietrian was silent for a moment and said softly:
"Legion Commander, I used to be obsessed with the combination of subspace power and machinery. I also know that this is extremely dangerous, but repentance is never an easy word to be accepted in the galaxy... You really are not worried that I will break away from you.
control?"
"Having experienced so many incidents, you have also come into contact with some secrets that are difficult for ordinary people to accept. I believe that you already have a standard in your heart."
"As for the legion..."
"You are still a member of the legion's armed department, and here at the battle group, the technical sergeants have grown up enough to be able to stand alone, and there is also Father Suna."
"Suna..."
Dietrian nodded.
"He is also a genius. Although we have differences in certain views, it is undeniable that he will have high achievements in time, especially in combat soldiers."
Then he turned around and looked at High Varia.
"But the same problem remains, Legion Commander... The cost and time required to rebuild a forging world are too long, and how should the empire explain it? Or does it need to be hidden all the time?"
