Chapter 10: The Ambush Begins
Xiahoulin immediately took the Wood Magi to the biochemical laboratory in the dreadnought. The pen %fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info there for the other party to watch carefully, from the prosthetic manufacturing technology in "Conquering the Tactical Team".
Warhammer worlds are a mess of technology, although the Human Empire has the power to colonize the galaxy extensively. However, in some technical aspects, it seems very crude, such as the body modification technology.
Anyway, Xia Houlin has never seen it, and the people who have been transformed by the Mechanical Sect will still maintain their original appearance. The prosthetics they developed were all products with a strong technical style, which can be described as rugged, and at first glance they were made of metal.
And compared with the fine prosthetic technique in "Ghost in the Shell", the body transformed by the Mechanic Sect is obviously a big difference in appearance.
At least the prosthetic body that Xiahoulin is using now, if no special means are used, it is not obvious that it is different from the ordinary human body. And the body of the Wood Magi looks like a rough one, and it is very easy to scare others.
"This kind of technology is really interesting. Artificial muscles and skin, internal auxiliary artificial organs. It can transform the fragile body into an efficient biochemical body. The Wood Magi looked at everything in front of him with relish, these technologies were beyond his comprehension.
Xia Houlin didn't say anything on the side, waiting for the other party to finish reading it slowly. I believe that the technology in front of me should arouse the interest of the other party. After all, with a terrifying appearance, this is not something that everyone likes.
"How long does it take to change your body?" The Wood Magi turned to Charhoulin and asked, obviously a little impatient to get a new body.
For mechanical educators who are keen on modifying their bodies, it doesn't matter if they replace all of their flesh with mechanical bodies, as long as their important brains remain intact.
In order to prolong the life of the people who are used to explore the mysteries of technology, the Mechonists will not hesitate to carry out any strange transformations.
"After the initial test, you can have a brand new body ready in less than an hour. You can choose your own appearance. However, if you need to install those additional equipment, I am afraid it will take a lot of time. Xiahoulin looked behind the Woodsman, where there were quite a few additional devices in addition to the four mechanical tentacles. These strange devices are the props of the mechanical Magi in their work and battle.
"Then I want to change the body first, and as for the other modifications, I can do it slowly." The Wood Magi spoke immediately, after seeing the prosthetic technique in front of him. He decided to replace his original body, and even the auxiliary prosthetic behind him was ready to be replaced with the kind on Xia Houlin's body.
"There are human forms to choose from, Lord Wood, and you take your time. Then enrich those staff who will meet your requirements as soon as possible. I'll go back to the conference room and wait for your renovation. Xiahoulin looked at the impatient Wood Sage, believing that this mechanical Magi would definitely be more certain about his identity after experiencing his own technology. In this way, the integration into the Cult of the Mechanicus will be much smoother.
"I don't know what to say about your Excellency's help to me. When the transformation is over, what technology in my hands is at the disposal of Lord Altaïr, then go ahead and check it out. The Wood Magi said this in a sincere tone, and he was indeed ready to exchange data with the hermit mechanical Magi in front of him. I just hope that the other party can see the technology in his hands.
After saying goodbye to the Wood Magi, Charhoulin left the Institute of Prosthetics. Directly returned to the previous conference room, and began to wait for the completion of the other party's prosthetic transformation.
In the other control room of the dreadnought, Chaholyn's true form was with Laxis. Watch through the screen as the Magi of Wood chooses the appearance of the prosthetic body, as well as his opinion on additional equipment.
"This Wood of the Mechanic Sect is really bold enough, he is not afraid of problems if he uses our technology to change his body at the same time after meeting you for less than an hour?" Laxis looked at the Woodwise in the picture, and after choosing the appearance of a middle-aged man, she followed a few staff members into the laboratory.
"He won't be worried, because after identifying me as a hermit of the Mecha sect, he will give me a lot of trust. Although there are different schools of thought within the Mechanicals, they are all known for their unity externally. And my faction has no reason to hurt him, after all, there is no conflict of interest in everyone. Charhoulin leaned back on the couch and explained to Laxis.
"Indeed, the vast majority of conflicts actually come from conflicts of interest. In this world, we just need to gather technical information. Laxis nodded, apparently agreeing with Xiahoulin's words.
"I'm really looking forward to what kind of new technology I can get in the hands of this mechanical Magi?" Xiahoulin remembered that in the Warhammer world, there were many unique technologies. And these weapons and equipment can improve their own strength.
Now for the technology to improve the combat effectiveness in their own hands, some people in Xiahoulin are very concerned. It's often a matter of trying to get hold of these techniques. Of course, what they like most is to exchange technology.
And now that Xiahou Lin has a relationship with the Magi of the Machine Sect, then as long as he assumes the identity of himself, he will be recognized by the Machine Sect. It will be easier to obtain the technology mastered by this force.
"Then it's up to you to act, Akizuki has now started cloning with Kilian's genes, and will strengthen that body. We'll soon have a dedicated combat commander, and she'll be in charge of combat missions. "Luxis, like Chahoulin, is not the kind of person who can command well. Therefore, in the last quest world, Kirian, who belongs to the Brotherhood, was the best candidate.
However, Kilian refused to leave that world, so Xiahou Lin and the others had to consider another way, that is, to use Kilian's consciousness data and clone body to recreate a commander suitable for their side.
"The cloning project has begun, will the clones fully assist us after the implantation of consciousness?" Xiahou Lin was a little worried about the clone who had been completely implanted with Kilian's consciousness data, compared to Kilian Ke was a very assertive and ambitious woman.
Your task is to collect tasks in different worlds, and what you need is for everyone to work together, so you can't be sloppy in the slightest.
"This is rest assured, Qiuyue will make appropriate modifications in the Kilian consciousness data. Make sure the clones will be our staunchest men. "Laxis is very confident in this regard. Because of the technology you have mastered, you can easily modify human memories.
"Qiu Yu said no, what kind of enhancement does she want to put on the clone?" Xia Houlin looked at Laxis and asked, there is no room for the slightest sloppiness in increasing the basic combat effectiveness of individuals.
"Like us, it's the Protoss genetic enhancement, and this enhancement is the one we are most familiar with at the moment. Do you want to do this as well? Laxis looked at Xiahou Lin, among the others, that is, he did not have the inlaid Protoss genes.
"No need, it's enough for me to use the Ancestral Virus Boost." Xiahoulin is very satisfied with his current body, after the fusion of the Ancestral Virus and Perfect Blood. The body has been completely transformed by the virus, and then it has been modulated by the biochemical technology in the world of "Strong Armor".
Unlike Laxis and Autumn Moon's power-up abilities, Xiahoulin's main enhancement is now in the flesh. Therefore, his physical fitness has reached the level of a super beast soldier.
At present, Xia Houlin's muscle strength has reached twenty times that of humans, and it is a veritable powerful force. Moreover, all the facial features have been strengthened, and the recovery power of the body has also been strengthened.
"Now we have to sort it out, we have those technologies in our hands that we can communicate with the foundry world." Laxis thought of the weapons in her own database, which she had collected and learned about different worlds. The Magi who believed in the Mechanism would be interested in this.
"It's not a rush to do this, and we have a lot of weapons in our hands. The mechanical aspect is not necessarily good, and I have something here that is more interesting to the other party. And you can also show the combat effectiveness of our weapons along the way. Xia Houlin said as he called up an intelligence collected by his reconnaissance plane from the screen.
In a galaxy, a fleet of Chaos is clearing out the Greenskins. The battle between the two sides was won by the Chaos side, and the most striking thing in this battle was a huge warship.
That battleship was one of the largest warships that Xiahoulin's side had seen since they came to this world. The length has surpassed that of the Precursor dreadnought, reaching more than twenty kilometers, and it is probably second only to the giant battleship of the planetary killer.
"What class of battleship is this battleship, and it's actually bigger than our dreadnoughts?" Laxis looked at the battleship on the screen and immediately became interested. Such a battleship is a good thing, and it is a strategic weapon in terms of size.
"This is an Elizabeth-class battleship, and the largest warship built by the Empire during the Great Expedition. It is the flagship of each legion-level fleet, and it can be used with a single ship against a fleet. It's a pity that after the Imperial Civil War, the Foundry World no longer has the ability to build such a huge battleship. Xiahoulin said to Laxis, knowing very well that if the Imperial Army or the Mechnists learned that this kind of battleship still existed, they would definitely be as happy as if they had been beaten with blood. In any case, troops will be sent to try to take it back.
"You're going to hit this battleship, you just said the firepower of this thing, you can crush a fleet alone. If we want to take it, I'm afraid we will have to mobilize the battle group. Laxis knew what Xiahoulin meant, but she didn't forget to remind the other party of the strength of his combat power.
"This ship is indeed a target, but we are not the only ones who will send troops. The troops under the command of the mechanical Magi could come in handy. And to shoot this battleship, it can only be carried out in boarding battles. And this asteroid belt is a good place for us to start. Xiahoulin pointed to a star field map on the screen, which happened to be the place where the Chaos Fleet was going to pass by, because a planet belonging to an empire happened to be in that area.
"That's a good plan, so when the mechanical Magi comes out, we'll talk to him about a plan of action." After saying this with a smile, Laxis pulled up the details of the galaxy and looked at it.
…….
In the asteroid belt of the Celein system, the dreadnoughts and more than twenty warships under his command are quietly lurking in this area, and in the other direction, the fleet of the Mecha Sect is also hidden in the asteroids.
In the control room of the dreadnought, Xiahoulin was looking at the positions of the various units on the screen, and at the same time ordered the reconnaissance team to start expanding the search area in all directions, and found the traces of the Chaos fleet as early as possible.
"Lord Altaïr, we are ready, and now wait for the enemy to take the bait. I just don't know when the other party will attack? "The Wood Magi in the picture is obviously very serious about the next battle.
At this moment, the Wood Magi has shaken off the scary appearance of the tentacle monster, and he is now in the image of a middle-aged white man in his mid-thirties. A decent blood-red robe, with four biochemical tentacles swinging around his back.
For the biochemical prosthetic technology provided by Chahoulin, Wood Magi is full of praise. In particular, the electronic brain transformation made him ecstatic.
The Magi of the Mechanic Sect had already traded the technology he had mastered for the technical data of the Biochemical Prosthesis and the Electronic Brain with Xiahoulin.
The Woodwise knew what the impact these two technologies would have on HQ once they were teleported back to Mars. In particular, the electronic brain technology will be of great help to the members of the Cult of the Mechanica.
After the transformation was completed, the Woodwise heard the sights of an Elizabeth-class battleship found on the side of Chahoulin. The plan to join forces and seize the huge battleship was immediately agreed.
To this end, the Wood Magi took his entire fleet with him, and even hired a large number of mercenaries, who were now hidden in the asteroid belt.
In the meantime, in order to ensure that the plan would succeed in one fell swoop, the Woodwise are contacting the local patrol fleet. Ask the other party to transfer most of their forces to another location to clear the space pirates, leaving only a small number of garrisons to attract the attention of the Chaos army.
"If what we've gathered before is correct, then Chaos snobbery will definitely be attracted by the news of the garrison leaving the system. And the Chaos Fleet, which is closest to this star field, will definitely not let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Xiahoulin explained to the Wood Magi on the screen, using chaos snobbery to conquer the city. Attacking defenseless galaxies is what they love to do.
"If we succeed in this battle, it will have a significant impact on the battle in the Gothic Sector." The Wood Magi is well aware of the current situation in the Gothic Star Sector, and the Imperial Navy is already embarrassed by the invasion of the Chaos Army.
Although I don't know for some reason recently, the invasion of the forces of chaos has suddenly slowed down. However, none of the Imperial departments of the Gothic planet let their guard down, as the subspace storm had isolated the entire star sector from the rest of the Empire. As a result, reinforcements from other places cannot arrive in a short period of time.
Suddenly, Charhoulin and the Magi of Wood received the front at the same time, and the system patrol fleet had already fought the Chaos fleet. Now they are retreating in full force to this side, as they have instantly outnumbered more than a third of their ships. Now the only way is to rely on the planetary defense system to defend against it.
"The enemy has taken the bait, everyone get ready for a bloody battle!" Xia Houlin looked at the information sent back by the reconnaissance plane on the screen, and his eyes became more serious than ever.
