In the splendid palace.
A strange silver-white crystal watch appeared on Su Ziyu's hand. At this time, a large piece of data was projected in front of his eyes. As he flipped through the screen, some huge green-skinned orcs with extremely strong muscles appeared. These are all the information that the empire has collected. In its heyday, the empire fought against a war group of green-skinned orcs. It was a small-scale WAAAGH expedition. The empire, which had just prepared for interstellar expansion, was attacked head-on by the orcs and was directly defeated. Forced to abandon the original interstellar colonization plan, they began to brew a psychic ascension plan.
Angel Shar was lying on the soft golden-red sofa with her legs crossed and a red wine glass in her hands. Not far away were two pretty but nervous maids.
"What a rotten system!" A glimmer of light occasionally flashed in Angel Shar's eyes, which was when she was reading unknown information. She shook her red wine glass and said: "Human resources are being wasted seriously. This is so. Without the legacy of the ancient empire, it would be difficult for our system to enter the era of interstellar civilization.”
Su Ziyu was not interested in discussing the empire's system with her. After turning the page, he raised his head and said, "What do you think of the Orcs' WAAAGH force field?"
The blond angel in front of him raised his head and glanced at Su Ziyu, and said slowly: "Idealistic force field."
"I don't know how the existence that created them was able to do it. I have only seen this ability to distort reality in some subspaces."
"But in the material plane, we have never seen a species that can distort reality."
Su Ziyu couldn't help but sigh after hearing this, and said with a solemn expression: "Yes. This kind of power is incredible."
"Our odds are not good."
The most troublesome thing about orcs is not their terrifying vitality, not that new orcs can grow out of corpses and blood scattered on the ground, but their innate WAAAGH force field, which is a supernatural power that can distort reality.
And the greater the number of orcs, the more powerful this force becomes.
For example, if there is only a small group of orcs, and their weapons are broken, and they find some guns, but the magazine of the gun is too small to hold large-caliber bullets, the orc boys can use it themselves to expand it by chopping and using it normally. .
Because 'we thought this would be enough', it really works.
But if this gun falls into the hands of humans, it is inevitable that the gun will explode, but in the hands of orcs, it can always explode.
The greater the number of orcs, the more terrifying this WAAAGH force field will be. When the number reaches a certain level, "Let's all think about how this pile of scrap metal can build a Gundam", then the technician boys can really do it. A Gundam comes out.
How to fight this
This ability is simply a bit unsolvable. Although the WAAAGH force field has an upper limit, they have been thinking about it so much that Su Ziyu has no chance of winning at all.
"There is a limit to the interference of the idealistic force field on reality." Shar thought for a moment and then said: "Distorting reality and interfering with reality are the power of the gods. These orcs should not be able to use this power without restrictions. The WAAAGH force field works The scope should not exceed the upper limit of their cognitive understanding of the world.”
"From the data, their force fields only enhance the power of external objects, rather than creating them out of thin air."
Shar's meaning is simple.
The Orc's WAAAGH force field is 'I am thinking that this gun in my hand can blow up a tank', not 'I am thinking that at this time I should have a gun in my hand that can directly blow up a tank'.
If it's the latter, there's basically no need to fight, just run away.
"Do you have any good plans?" Su Ziyu raised his head and asked.
"There is not enough information about these orcs, and there is no good plan for the time being." The blond angel in front of him shook his head and said: "But we should pay attention to their number. The number of orcs is the key to determining their power."
"On the battlefield, reduce their numbers as much as possible."
Su Ziyu lowered his head after hearing this, rubbed his forehead and continued to browse the information in front of him, and asked casually: "How is Isabella going?"
A glimmer of light flashed in Angel Shar's eyes, and she whispered: "She has gathered those rebels."
"On the way to the cathedral at this time."
Su Ziyu is still a little envious of Shar's ability to directly read information, but currently he is unable to do so and can only rely on perception to obtain information.
"How much time do we have left?" Su Ziyu turned off the projection in front of him and raised his head.
Shar closed her eyes and paused for a while, then said: "Less than 18 hours."
"Isabella is gathering the Imperial forces."
Speaking of this, Shar put a finger on her temple and whispered: "She has ordered all nuclear bomb silos to be activated. It seems that she is ready to use tactical nuclear weapons."
Drop a nuclear bomb
Su Ziyu was silent for a while and then said: "Is it useful?"
"The effect is limited." The blond angel shook his head and said: "Civilizations in the interstellar era basically have the ability to deal with nuclear weapons."
at the same time.
While Su Ziyu was consulting a large amount of information and looking for ways to deal with the Orcs, the factory areas and military camps in the imperial capital were also operating at full capacity.
Queen Isabella, who had just returned from the cathedral, almost immediately led people to the factory area. At this time, tens of thousands of sealed old mechas were lined up in front of her. Being old did not mean that they were old. The lack of power is just because these thick iron lumps have very obvious flaws. The empire took the path of spiritual ascension in the early days, so these products of mechanical ascension were directly abandoned and sealed at the bottom of the factory area. .
"Her Majesty the Queen."
"Are we really going to use these Dreadnoughts?"
"Those green-skinned orcs are really back?" Next to Queen Isabella was a middle-aged man dressed as an aristocrat, with neatly combed hair, wearing medieval-style aristocratic clothes, and a laser pistol on his waist. There were some people behind him, who basically looked like nobles.
Queen Isabella turned her head with cold eyes and said expressionlessly: "Let's get started."
She did not answer the doubts of these nobles, but directly gave the order. With the sound of footsteps, groups of burly soldiers took off their shirts and walked into the workshop in front of them.
These tough soldiers all have special tattoo marks on their bodies, which are the symbols of the Astra Militarum. All of them are selected elites and have absolute loyalty to the empire. Under the leadership of non-commissioned officers, they arrived at this frame. In front of the sealed mecha, hundreds of medical troops wearing white coats came over, holding various instruments in their hands and began to test the soldiers.
"Detection completed."
“Start accessing the nervous system!…”
"Activate the electronic biochemical fiber of the fearless mecha!... Activate the magnetic muscle nerve connection!... Load the personal control terminal!..."
The cold mechanical scalpel shone with a cold light.
The medics loaded the medical auxiliary arm onto the shoulder, and then precise surgical tools emerged. They cut open the soldiers' muscle tissue, found the nerve bundles in their bodies, and then began to implant some micro electronic components. Then it was connected to the electronic biochemical fiber extended by the tall fearless mecha in front, and the genetic repair fluid was injected.
When the nerve connection is completely completed, these mechas will become one with them. They can control the mechas as flexibly as they control their own bodies, but these heavy steel mechas will also become a prison that restrains them.
The ultimate definition of mechanical ascension is the complete mechanization of human body structure.
Dreadnought mechas are different from the armor of interstellar warriors. The latter is the cutting-edge transformation of the human body, extending the black carapace to control the interstellar armor. However, ordinary people simply cannot do this and do not have enough resources, so they want to perfectly To control the mecha, only electronic nerve connections can be made, and the two must be completely connected through surgery.
boom.
Heavy footsteps sounded.
The first Astra Militarum soldier to complete the electronic nerve connection took a step forward. He squatted down and opened a metal box more than three meters long, and took out a heavy and huge firearm with a diameter of more than half a meter. The bolter of the ancient Lost Empire fires rocket-propelled bullets. The ammunition that can be used includes standard bolt rounds, hellfire bolt rounds (directly hitting organic matter), infernal bolt rounds (psionic beam rounds), etc.
There are many models of bolters, but currently there is only the [Expeditionary Type] bolter model in the Empire.
certainly.
These are not the only weapons of the Dreadnought Mecha. The 12-ton Dreadnought Mecha is equipped with plasma cannons on its arms and extended power weapons, which are enough to handle any close combat or long-range combat. The energy source used inside the mecha is a thermal reactor, which can carry out long-term and high-intensity battles. In the past, this type of mecha was once the standard equipment of interstellar warriors, but was gradually replaced by newer interstellar armor.
boom.
The first group of Astra Militarum soldiers who had undergone the transformation gave a military salute to Queen Isabella in front of them, and then stood expressionlessly on the side of the road. The transformation of the electronic nerve connection was still proceeding in an orderly manner. After establishing a neural connection with the Dreadnought Mecha, they will have to spend a long time in this heavy steel armor in the future.
Queen Isabella did not stay until the entire transformation process was over. After staying in the transformation workshop for a while, she entered another factory area, where there were larger and more ferocious steel monsters.
Of course, the empire's heritage goes beyond these fearless mechas.
You must know that the empire was faced with two choices, one was spiritual ascension, and the other was mechanical ascension. Although the path chosen by the empire in the end was spiritual ascension, mechanical ascension also left a rich legacy as a backup option.
And now it's time to use this inheritance!
