Sun star field, solar system, Mars, rust waste soil
This planet, known as the "Red Star", is known as the miracle of the Milky Way. In the early 22-million-year period, it became the first planet to be transformed by humans.
When the planet became habitable, Mars was ruled by industrial groups and soon developed into the first Nest World and a center for industrial and scientific progress.
In the dark age of technology, Mars, which belong to the same empire, coexist peacefully with the Earth.
In the age of disputes, Mars experienced centuries of isolation, and the entire planet was in anarchy.
For a long time, Mars was cut off from the connection with the Earth by a super-subspace storm, and Mars's own atmospheric barrier also collapsed, exposed to deadly radiation, causing catastrophe to the surface.
During this period, radiation protection bunkers were the only hope for humans to survive on Mars. Technology was the key to maintaining human survival on Mars at that time, and the respect for the Ohm Messiah also began to take shape and began to develop during this period.
When the War of Unification of Terra ended, Mars had developed a culture that was completely different from the Earth. A religious organization called the Mechanical God ruling the planet with high-tech means. What they respected was a belief called "Mechanical God".
After the emperor unified the earth strongly, he arrived at Mars as soon as possible and signed a covenant with the Mechanical God Cult, bringing the red star back to the embrace of mankind.
During the Great Expedition, the Titan Legion and the newly created Space Marine Legion fought side by side to expand the territory of the empire. At that time, Mars and many mechanical gods belonged to the world, provided almost all the military supplies and equipment of the human empire, and penetrated into all aspects of the empire society.
During the Horus rebellion, Mars also became a key battlefield, and a war broke out between the Mechanical Cult, loyal to the Empire and the Dark Mechanical Cult who defected to Horus.
At first in the Civil War, the Dark Mechanism won the victory, while the Loyalists retreated to Earth, and the Traitors occupied Mars.
With Horus' advancement, the Imperial Fist Legion blocked Mars for several years. In the final stage of the solar system war, Mars was "liberated" by Horus' rebels.
In the Battle of Terra, Horus was killed, the rebels were completely defeated, and Mars once again returned to the empire.
But this does not mean that Mars has achieved peace. In fact, decades after the end of the Great Rebellion, the "liquidation" work has been going on, and countless technologies have been destroyed in the war. The technical level of the Martian Mechanical Divine Cult has faded from now on, and they have lived by simply reclaiming past heritage.
As the only light of science and technology for mankind, the Mechanical Divine Cult almost involves the fields that humans need, whether it is people's livelihood, military, medical care, education and other fields.
The only areas that cannot be involved in the Mechanical Divine Cult are only three, the Terra Palace, the Assassin's Room, and the Astat Cult, because these three fields have their own independent scientific and technological production systems and are highly closed.
But among them, Astart's relationship with the Mechanical Divine Cult is the most ambiguous.
On the one hand, as a military institution, Astathu will have a large number of warships and weapons and equipment that need to be updated and maintained.
On the other hand, the Astart Order, as an independent armed force of the empire, has a high degree of closure and will not allow other institutions to penetrate into the Order.
Therefore, in this special relationship, technical sergeants emerged.
A Space Marines team will excavate the combat brothers in the company who are particularly sensitive to machinery as pre-selected technical sergeants, and those selected soldiers will be sent to Mars as "international students" for thirty years of training.
There they will be taught about the God of All Machines, as well as how to use engineering runes for divination, how to perform maintenance blessing rituals, these great knowledge must be fully understood and remembered by the technical sergeant.
The knowledge involved in these thirty years of learning not only includes numerous and complex maintenance rituals and hymns, but also requires learning a variety of solutions to deal with any situation that can be encountered on the battlefield.
A fully qualified technical sergeant will have the ability to "sensate" the "pain" of damaging the machinery and heal it.
After completing the training, the technical sergeants will return to their battle group as prescribed and exist as a link between the Mechanical Divine Cult and the Astart Order, which makes them look very unique with other combat brothers.
Lico Rogris from the Astral Knight has also spent his tenth year in his Mars career.
In the first ten years, he studied in the Temple of the Ten Thousand Machines, where he mastered a lot of basic knowledge, a large number of complex special terms, and even more complex code programming teaching.
These may be difficult for a mortal, but not complicated for an Astat.
During this process, he also met several warriors of the same batch as him, namely Rui Boronat from the Raven Guard, Royk Lugo from the Star Dragon, and Haaland Arucard from the Pioneer Chapter.
Among them, the Star Dragon Chapter was particularly interested in Rogris, because the members of this group would perform ritual skin pricks and embed electronic circuits into deep wounds, making them shine like stars imprisoned in cages.
Rogris once asked about the meaning of these metal tattoos, but the other party kept silent.
But Rui Boronat speculated that they might be descendants of Ferrus Manus, but Haaland Arucard retorted that Loyk Lugo lacked the cruel logic of the iron hand, and was often guided by strong emotions - simply put, he was easily emotionally active.
In any case, having a few good friends in Mars, a ruthless mechanical place, is finally some comfort for Rogris.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Today, they have completely finished their study in the temple and will go to a new place to learn new knowledge.
One thing to emphasize is that the term "technical priest" is a very broad general term, which contains thousands of mechanical memorials with different titles and different roles, and these roles can be roughly divided into four types, namely saints, genes, logicians, and forgings.
The sages are responsible for carrying out obscure agendas and are responsible for command, regardless of the consequences of their agendas are often either great achievements or terrible disasters.
Logicians are senior technical priests of the Mechanical Divine Church, integrating analysts, statisticians and logistics experts. Their task is to predict future trends and make predictions about the expenditure and demand of the Mechanical Divine Church. They are also often considered prophets of the Mechanical Divine Church because of their responsibilities.
Genes keep exploring the mysteries of living things. They can create the most incredible strange semi-mechanical living things, or slaughter countless aliens just to understand the secrets about aliens' life and social metabolism.
Forged and preserved the collection of those amazing weapons of war, from gorgeous gamma pistols to huge mechanical arks beyond the scope of ordinary people's thinking.
Among these fields, the first three fields contain secrets that the Mechanical God Cult is unwilling to share with outsiders. Only in the last field can they be reluctant to give out some in exchange for the support of the Astart Monastery.
Therefore, the learning of the technical sergeants is concentrated in the field of forgings. What Rogris and others are going to is a temple mastered by the forgings, the highest honor of the forgings, the Lord of the Forgings.
But before going there, Rogris will go to the Temple of All-Intellect again.
