Warhammer 30k and the Great Tomb of Nazarick
Chapter 164 New Titan
Chapter 164 New Titan
Titans are the most powerful land weapons of the human empire. They are the incarnation of the God of All Machines and the carrier of the Emperor’s power.
The Human Empire once built millions of Titans of various types in the timeline from 30k to 40k, with an average annual output of Titans.
At first glance, this output seems to be a lot, but the human empire has millions of worlds. Once the Titans distribute this, it will directly become a legendary thing.
It seems like a small amount, but actually it is not much at all.
In the 30k era, Chaos corruption was not that serious, and many crucial production technologies caused by the Horus Heresy were not lost. The Mechanicus was not so crazy that they had to kowtow three times and nine times before tightening a screw, and the inscriptions on the Titan armor plates had to be written by hand with precision to the molecular level.
In this era of human expedition, production efficiency is far higher than in later generations. Although Titans are precious, they are still a powerful strategic resource, not the mythical organisms of later generations.
After entering the other world, the absorption of local magical technology further greatly improved the production efficiency of the Mechanicus.
But even in this case, it is impossible to produce a brand new Titan in more than a month.
At least current technology does not allow it.
The existence of this Titan is actually a product of waste utilization. Its main body is a destroyed Warlord-class Titan. The Mechanicus added a lot of equipment from other combat units into it, and even used the technology of the Necrons and the Eldar. It is a purely experimental product.
The most important person who made it possible to achieve this operation that is comparable to the green-skinned Anxunsi technology is Nfirea.
As a powerful natural psychic, Nfirea’s ability is that he can use all magical items without restriction. After the arrival of the Human Empire, it was discovered that Nfirea’s ability was also applicable to creations in the Warhammer Universe.
Afterwards, the Mechanicus used cloning and repeated experiments, and finally discovered that it only needed to retain the brain, heart and one arm to unleash Nfirea’s natural abilities.
With the help of this cheating ability, the human empire has achieved the use of other alien technologies. This Titan is one of them. Multiple clones of Nfirea are buried in its body to control those incompatible alien technologies.
As for the attitude towards this Titan, Luo Jia believed that there was no need to make a high-profile announcement. It would be enough to let the news spread among some important targets who had surrendered. Of course, there was no need to conceal it deliberately.
By the way, use this news about Titan as a hook to see if I can hook out something.
And as expected, even though the message was not deliberately passed on, some people from the Aida elves still took the opportunity to run here.
It is naturally impossible to let the Eldar run around within the human empire. If the Eldar want to leave the embassy and go somewhere else, they need approval.
These pointy-eared creatures are well-informed, and not all of them are aliens that indulge in sensory stimulation.
Although Lorgar was a religious fanatic, he was no fool. From the very beginning he had been very suspicious of the collective depravity of the Eldar.
As expected, this time he received a report request from the Eldar.
As for the Eldar people making a report, Lorgar also approved it, which was more like a mutual statement of position.
I have a way to know the situation on your side, and I have the confidence to show my strength.
We are all a group of young people who have fantasies about the universe, and we all have a certain tacit understanding with each other.
Since I can’t kill you for the time being, I’ll just make do with you for now.
Gilkenifer and the Dragon Queen took Osco to the site where the new Titan was officially put into service. When passing by the market entrance, Gilkenifer greeted Pandora enthusiastically.
Pandora cursed in her heart how dare Gilkenifer betray Ainz-sama, but her expression remained unchanged as she nodded slightly in response.
Gilkniver had his own vehicle nearby. His original six-legged horse-drawn luxury carriage had long been replaced with a car produced by the Human Empire.
The construction of light industry and civilian product production lines in the Human Empire here has given way to military and heavy industry, so things like cars are very difficult for the natives of the current alien world to obtain.
Only a high-ranking surrendered noble like Gilkenifer could be issued with one, and he even had a driver and a valet.
Osco felt the 3K retro-style car of the Human Empire and thought it was much more comfortable than a horse-drawn carriage. Even the Headhunter Rabbit did not feel crowded when sitting in it.
But Osco still found it magical. Although Gilkniver was not a arrogant person when he was the Blood Emperor, it had never happened before that the two sides sat together naturally like they did now.
It was also surprising that the Dragon King’s daughter would become his lover. Osco also raised this question on the way.
The two men’s answers were very simple. They just felt that they understood each other. Anyway, everyone was freed from government affairs and happened to be together. After a while, they naturally discovered each other’s charm.
However, among these two people, the Dragon Queen actually has a lot to do. According to herself, she usually needs to go to the Mechanicus to conduct research work, and now is a rare vacation.
As for what they were researching, the Dragon Queen did not say, and Osco tactfully did not ask.
Soon they arrived at a storage place near the outskirts of the hive city. The new Titan had already been assembled and would be officially delivered to the legion for use here.
There were many soldiers on guard nearby, and the Crusaders with green light were the most eye-catching. Osco knew that these soldiers, whose tissues were replaced by machines, were not in line with his aesthetic taste, but they were undoubtedly strong. Moreover, these soldiers had a strange aura-like ability around them.
It is said that if ordinary people stay close to it for too long, their health will inevitably decline, starting with nosebleeds, and then their health will get worse and worse.
The local indigenous nobles who came to watch the Titan service ceremony were also within this range.
In the inner circle, one can see the majestic figures of Space Marines and Mechanicus priests walking around, busy with something unknown.
Inside the core area was a huge object wrapped in cloth. The object was very large, as big as the oldest tree Osco had ever seen.
A red-robed Mechanicus sage holding a mechanical scepter stood on a makeshift platform, staring at the huge object. There was also a big bell next to the sage.
As more and more people gathered around, the sage raised his scepter, and the originally noisy scene immediately became quiet.
The Mechanicus looked at their new creation with great anticipation; they had tested it many times in experiments and now it was time to officially put it into service, while the natives looked at it with curiosity and fear.
A loud electronic sound came out from the sage’s speaker.
“In the name of the Holy Binary, praise the Messiah of Ohm! The God of All Machines has heard our expectations and sent his mighty power to act in our imperial army.”
“The Titan activation ceremony begins!”
“Ring the big bell once! Push the lever to start the piston and pump.”
Along with the sound of a loud bell, the cloth covering the Titan was lifted, revealing the huge monster underneath.
It was a humanoid giant over thirty meters tall.
It was difficult for Osco to describe what that thing was. He had never felt the lack of words as much as he did at this moment. At this moment, when he saw the huge creation in front of him, he could not imagine any suitable adjectives.
He just stared blankly at the Titan creation in front of him.
“Tick the bell twice! Press the button to start the engine, ignite the turbine, and breathe life into it.”
The big bell rang again, and with this ringing, a roar came from inside the Titan.
That was the joyful roar of the machine spirit destroyed in the battlefield and revived, that was the first cry of a newborn Titan.
The engine inside the Titan was ignited, surging power filled the interior of the Titan, and various weapons were being debugged and opened.
The pilots of the internal crew once again felt the powerful feeling of being connected to the Titan’s machine soul, as if they were omnipotent.
And because of the latest technology using magic, this new Titan now has much lower side effects on the driver.
“Ring the great bell three times! Sing in unison, and praise the God of All Things!”
The Titan’s speakers played a sacred binary prayer, and the Mechanicus priests on site sang along in unison.
The Titan took its first steps, and the earth trembled; the Titan blew its horn, and the sky trembled.
When Osco came to his senses, he found himself kneeling on the ground with tears in his eyes.
Although the Headhunter Rabbit was not happy, he still pulled him up.
“what happened to you?”
“No, I just discovered the true beauty in this world!”
“Sure enough, even the most tempered flesh cannot compare to real steel. Ahhhhhhh, that is the ultimate violence, the ultimate beauty!”
“Did you see it! Did you see it! Did you see it!”
“I saw it, I saw it, your saliva sprayed all over me, so disgusting.”
“Okay, go to the finance department to settle the bill when you go back, and get double your salary. I’m going to join the Mechanicus and marry the most beautiful Titan.”
“What’s the matter?”
To the stunned astonishment of the Headhunter Rabbit, Osco actually went to find the Mechanicus, but was rejected.
Damn, I didn’t even pass the test.
