Warhammer: Rebuilding the Golden Age Starting with Farming

Chapter 124 Old Farmer An Has an Idea

Reagan is gone.

He scrambled out of the studio, thoughtfully closing the door behind him before leaving.

The studio returned to silence.

Andy sat down at the large worktable, his earlier frightened expression vanishing instantly.

He was thinking.

First, we need to figure out what this so-called "gravitational wave beacon" actually is.

In the Necromancers' completely illogical tech tree, this device, despite being called a "beacon," is neither a communicator for transmitting messages nor a lighthouse for guiding spaceships like the Empire's.

Essentially, it is a physical anchor used to fix spatial coordinates.

As is well known, while space necromancers spend most of their time sleeping, they don't necessarily sleep underground.

To be precise, it doesn't necessarily mean underground in "three-dimensional space".

To prevent the tomb world from being eroded by time, or dug up and dismantled as scrap metal by those ignorant inferior races.

The veterans have developed a technology called "hyperdimensional barrier".

Simply put, it involves using spatial folding technology to cram their main tombs, armories, or other important single facilities into a "pocket space" that is independent of the real dimension.

It's somewhat similar to the Ancient Saints' Web Path, but since Ribs doesn't have psionic abilities, its performance is definitely a bit weaker than the Web Path.

This pocket space is attached to reality, but it does not exist entirely in reality.

Even if you dig this planet through with a shovel, you won't find a single bone of them.

Because they are not in your physical coordinate system at all.

This gravitational wave beacon is the anchor point used to connect reality and pocket space.

It continuously emits gravitational waves of a specific frequency, maintaining phase stability in both spatial dimensions and ensuring that the pocket does not drift away.

"so----"

Andy tapped his fingers lightly on the table.

"That unfortunate explorer was able to see the facility and even go inside."

"It wasn't because he was lucky; it was purely because there was something wrong with the beacon."

That makes sense.

Just like the six small balls behind Andy, even the technology of the golden age will slowly decay over "tens of thousands of years".

After tens of thousands of years, even the advanced technology of space necromancy is bound to malfunction.

The energy output of the gravitational wave beacon fluctuated, causing the hyperdimensional barrier to become unstable.

The facilities that were originally hidden in the dimensional folds were briefly "spit out" and revealed in the real universe due to the loosening of the anchor points.

This explains why the western desert, which is usually barren, suddenly experiences so-called "miracles."

The barrier was ineffective at the time, and the defense system inside was probably offline or in a state of chaos.

As Andy looked at the waveform graph, the huge weight that had been hanging over him finally eased a little.

The planet Zais is still alive and well, allowing these warlords to roam freely for so long.

This in itself is the most compelling evidence.

This indicates that the space necromancers in that facility have not awakened.

Or rather, there was no organized undead army stationed in that facility at all.

If there really is a Dharma Emperor sleeping there, even if he is just a hegemon.

The instant the beacon malfunctioned and the old gate was opened, the grumpy guys who were grumpy in the morning had already come out in their destructive fighter jets to clean up the mess.

Since there was no attempt to whitewash the situation, it means the threat level is manageable.

"call----"

Andy mimicked a deep breath.

As long as it's not the kind of dynastic tomb where hundreds of millions of skeletons have slept, there's still room for maneuver!

He refocused his attention on that particular passage in the diary.

"A giant black obelisk with a green halo flowing across its surface."

This description is crucial.

There aren't many things in the Necromancer's architectural sequence that fit this characteristic.

If it's a tomb or military barracks, it's usually pyramid-shaped; if it's an energy station, it's probably non-European shaped.

There is only one thing that is obelisk-shaped.

【Blackstone Structure】.

It could be the "Blackstone Obelisk" used to suppress the warp, or it could be the "Resonance Tower" used to amplify warp energy.

C

It could even be some kind of simple monument.

But it is not important.

The important thing is its material.

Black Stone.

Andy had previously obtained a batch from Kaka, and its nature was later confirmed, but it hasn't been processed yet.

In the Warhammer universe, this substance is more precious than adamantite and rarer than antimatter.

It is the only substance capable of physically interfering with subspace energy.

With it, an absolute "magic-suppressing zone" can be created, turning psionicists into cripples and banishing demons directly back to the warp.

For Andy, the strategic value of this thing was immeasurable.

If we could get our hands on a batch of black rock and equip our starships with "black rock armor," what would we have to fear from warp storms? What would we have to fear from demonic invasions?

Direct physical exorcism!

and----

Andy thought of the analysis station.

There are also many grayed-out advanced options that require special materials to unlock.

One of them is the transformation of higher-dimensional matter.

If we could get some live metal back—

Even if it's the most troublesome holdout in the entire galaxy, the territory of the space undead.

However, as long as the returns are large enough and the risks are within a controllable range.

Andy dares to go clubbing at this grave!

Moreover, the beacon was already malfunctioning.

If done properly, one could take advantage of this malfunction to sneak in, dismantle some things, and then make a run for it.

I don't need to move the entire obelisk; I just want to collect a few black stone slabs and dismantle a few still-active funerary structures to analyze.

This is a huge profit!

"Let's do it!"

Andy made a decision.

The bold get rich, the timid starve!

Now that we've decided to establish ourselves in this universe, we can't let any opportunity to become stronger slip by!

But before setting off, you must make thorough preparations.

Although Andy was greedy, he wasn't stupid.

High-explosive crossbows and bomb guns alone are not enough to conquer the undead territory.

The necromancers' self-repairing ability is extremely disgusting. If you break them apart, they can piece themselves back together in seconds and continue attacking you.

Moreover, the hyperdimensional barrier itself is a big problem.

If we don't get that gravitational wave beacon sorted out, what if we go inside and the beacon suddenly gets fixed, or suddenly goes into full power and closes the door?

Andy would have to be locked in that dimensional pocket and spend his whole life with the ribs.

Therefore, targeted measures are necessary.

Andy's first thought was to have a device that could detect, interfere with, and open up gravitational wave channels.

Andy closed his eyes, his consciousness plunging into the vast STC database.

Start the search.

Keywords: Gravitational waves, dimensional interference, phase locking, spatial anchoring.

A massive stream of data raced through his mind.

Countless blueprints were retrieved, only to be rejected.

Graviton oscillator.

It can be manufactured.

It can generate gravitational waves, but it cannot be precisely controlled and is prone to collapsing the barrier.

next.

【Dimensional Tear Bomb】.

A one-time brute-force attack that can even blow up four-dimensional space—who knows what it might unleash?

The performance is outrageous!

And it's impossible to build them anyway, get lost!

[Graviton Transfer Shield].

It's for defense, not for opening doors, and its properties are too stable to be used for resonance.

Lie down on one side.

Andy's mind roams the ocean of data, searching for the optimal solution at hand.

Humanity in the Golden Age did encounter similar space technologies.

During that era of great exploration, human exploration ships frequently encountered various spatial anomalies, including some alien civilizations that used dimensional technology.

To deal with these situations, STC must have a backup plan.

There must be a special engineering device designed to handle "space gate" malfunctions.

Time passed second by second.

Andy's processor load increased, and the six floating units behind him began to spin at high speed.

-

at last.

In an extremely obscure engineering category, in a folder labeled "Non-standard spatial operations".

Andy found what he was looking for: a blueprint that didn't seem complicated.

Its core component is a huge thermal gradient coil, surrounded by a complex array of gravitational lenses.

[STC Standard Construction Template: Gravitational Wave Interference Hot Base Station.]

[Function: Used to stabilize local spatial structures in complex gravitational environments; can detect and locate hidden dimensional folds; can also be used as a temporary spatial anchor point.]

"You are the one!"
