Warhammer: Expedition to the Multiverse from 30k

Even shattering planets and prying gravity is not a difficult task for a large-scale army of iron men.

But in Luo Xi's eyes, stronger is never better, on the contrary, the most suitable one is the best.

The main threat facing humanity today is not powerful alien races, or some equally technologically powerful opponents, but Warp Demons and Chaos traitors have become the main targets.

Many forms of attack often have little effect when facing these new enemies. In addition, too much destructive power will also threaten the safety of the imperial army. Luo Xi decided to design a combat iron man that is more suitable for the current war situation.

Taking into account the strong resistance of the Warp Demon to long-range weapons, the Iron Man designed by Roche will tend to be close combat in combat, while also having powerful long-range firepower output.

Thinking in his mind, Luo Xi added melee weapons such as chainsword, power sword, magnetic sword, etc. to the Iron Man general template on the design platform.

Depending on the usage, the combat iron man can also freely switch between different forms of power weapons such as power fist, power hammer, power claw, etc.

"Sure enough, this is the way to go. What kind of iron man is this with all those sissy ranged weapons?"

Luo Xi suddenly laughed out loud. After dealing with the Empire for so long, he also had a strong preference for melee weapons represented by power swords.

You know, when he just woke up, he once laughed at the primitiveness and barbarism of the empire.

Your ranged weapons may be unreliable, but as long as you have the power sword in your hand, you will always have a backup plan.

Considering the cost, Roche could not use rare metals such as refined gold, and rare goods such as strong interaction force materials were also ruled out.

Please, iron men are not human beings. Even if they are broken into pieces, their consciousness can be reborn by changing their bodies. Luo Xi just chose a cost-effective alloy material to serve as the body of the iron man.

With the living metal of the Necrons as a reference, this alloy material has a weak self-healing effect. Although it is not as abnormal as that of the Necrons warriors, the combat-type iron man is still capable of fighting for a long time.

As for long-range weapons, the general weapons of combat-type Iron Man are their own Tesla arc weapons or laser weapons, which can be switched to degraded Gauss rifles produced by humans to crack the Necrons' Gauss weapons when necessary.

Although Roche tried his best to catch up, the technological gap between humans and Necrons was still huge. The Gauss weapons he was now able to mass-produce were inferior to those of the Necrons in terms of stability and lethality.

Although this weapon with a strong decomposition effect on matter is common to the Necrons, it is a magical weapon for humans.

After adding together some necessary elements, Luo Xi got an ugly iron man similar to a Necron warrior. He immediately shook his head in disgust and continued to design an iron man that was more in line with his aesthetic taste.

This is a mass-produced Iron Man that is taller than the armored Space Marine. Its overall appearance is similar to a smaller version of the Veronica-type Iron Man. It is about three meters tall, and its energy reactor is located under the heavy armor on its chest.

Due to the reduction in material performance, Roche increased the thickness of the defensive armor. In addition, the Iron Man has far fewer vital parts than a living being. At least in terms of defense, the Iron Man is far superior to the Astartes who originally wore ceramic steel armor.

As for thinking, Luo Xi did not intend to give advanced thinking to every Iron Man. He referred to the behavioral patterns of the Orcs and only gave thinking authority to a small number of elite Iron Men.

These elite Iron Men can connect directly to the intelligent brain, controlling their Iron Man comrades around them like node creatures. This can greatly reduce the consumption of Black Stone and the possibility of subspace corruption.

The intelligent brain, which is in an anti-subspace stance, can monitor the status of the Iron Men in real time and take countermeasures against potential threats of subspace corruption.

This Gestalt-style organizational structure is the most suitable behavioral model that Roche can propose for the Iron Men.

"According to this estimate, the combat power of this type of combat iron man may be higher than that of the original Astartes, but in a one-on-one situation, it is inferior to the Astartes who have completed the weapon replacement."

Roche has devoted a lot of effort to Astartes, and the cost of Astartes power armor is much higher than those mass-produced iron men.

"However, fortunately, in terms of quantity, these cost-effective Iron Men can be produced continuously and deployed in large quantities on the battlefield."

Luo Xi positioned the Iron Men as a large and well-equipped main force. They would gradually replace the mortal auxiliary troops and lead the way in the most dangerous places.

As for the Astartes, after the future Space Marine strengthening plan is successful, the Astartes envisioned by Roche will become true demigod warriors, serving as high-tech assault forces.

The Astartes, the Mortal Auxiliary Army, and the Iron Men cooperate with each other to become a complete war community to wipe out all types of dangerous enemies.

Roche quickly finalized the design of the combat iron man. He gave the prototype to the stone men he had created before for modification and improvement. These smart and capable stone men have recently been in the laboratory on Ganymede, helping the mechanical priests conduct research experiments.

Relying on the systematic knowledge prepared by Roche, as well as the experience and way of thinking gained from the mechanical priests, the scientific literacy of the stone people is rapidly improving.

Their miraculous learning ability makes the stone people more and more important on Ganymede, even surpassing many mechanical priests with average talents.

At the same time, Roche also relies on these stone men to manage Ganymede and the advanced technology community. Not only in scientific research, the stone men also have special talents in interpersonal communication and organizational management.

For example, when communicating with the priests of the Mechanicus, the stone man will switch to the other party's mechanical thinking mode, and communicate with the attitude of a grease man treating a grease man, which is often extremely efficient.

When communicating with other mortals, the stone people switch to emotional intelligence mode, communicating with the other party in a friendly manner that best suits the situation, taking into account the complex and sensitive psychology of mortals to the greatest extent possible.

Therefore, Stone People are always able to build good relationships with others. They are so understanding and good at thinking from the other person's perspective, and this ability is often lacking in a manager.

It is precisely because of the existence of the Stone People that the entire Ganymede and the Advanced Technology Community are so harmonious. If those Martian oil men were in charge of this organization, they would probably have broken their heads because of conflicts of interest.

The stonemen imported Loshe's design products into the STC template and modified the iron man models in the original production sequence in STC through the Internet.

Many engine oilers don’t know that the complete STC can actually be connected to the Internet. It is not only an industrial mother machine that can manufacture a certain product, but also a creation machine that can update data in real time and iterate products.

The reason why the STCs that most engine oil dealers have today can only produce a single specific product is that the STCs have been disconnected from the Internet and have lost their ability to update. It is like cutting off the signal to a computer, which can only browse and use local data.

With the help of the reliable stone man, Luo Xi no longer has to go through the trouble of doing experiments himself. This feeling is more than just a cool one.

With the help of the STC template, the first combat-type Iron Man experimental machine appeared on the experimental shooting range. The Stonemen will simulate various extreme environments to test the Iron Man designed by Roche.

"Extremely high temperature environment, test sequence 1."

The stone man in charge of the test recorded that he did not need any recording tools, his thinking matrix and built-in memory bank were enough to record the experimental data.

The flames spewed out by the melta weapon burned the iron man's body, and its metal armor was melting rapidly.

"Extremely low temperature environment, test sequence 2."

The extreme low temperature froze the Iron Man's body, and then they began to test how the Iron Man would perform under the low temperature conditions.

……

"Kinetic weapons confrontation test, test sequence 1086."

From the small-caliber bolt weapons of the mortal auxiliary army, the standard bolt guns of the Astartes, to the live ammunition weapons of the knight mecha level, they take turns to appear to test the defense strength of the Iron Man.

Luo Xi even had time to sit down and make a cup of rare tea from the Seal Holder's Collection. He didn't know when this tea was collected by Makado, but it was definitely a rare item.

In this era when tea trees have long been extinct, how fortunate we are to be able to brew a cup of authentic earth tea.

"Praise the Stone Man. He has liberated every researcher who worked hard on the experiments." Luo Xi exclaimed after taking a sip of tea.

Just after resting for a while, Luo Xi was about to see whether the stone people had completed the test of the combat-type iron man experimental machine. His assistant, Angie, the first female stone person created, reported a piece of information to him.

"Sage Luo Xi, Sage Takkar Rag Sinsong of the Mechanicus requests to meet with you alone." The stone man Angie has the appearance of a beautiful oriental woman and a gentle temperament, which is also a little selfish desire of Luo Xi.

"Sage Takkar is an expert in the field of alien research of the Adeptus Mechanicus. He was not in the solar system before. This is his first visit to Ganymede."

When Luo Xi heard Angie's report, he suddenly felt something strange. He felt that this strange Mechanicus sage was a little familiar.

The Mechanicus is a huge organization. Perhaps even the Fabricator-General himself does not know how many people are inside it.

When Roche founded the Community of Advanced Technology, the Mechanicus priests and sages present were only a small part of the people, and many others were on Terra or in other unknown places.

"Takal... Damn it, Tarasim!"

Luo Xi repeated it twice in his mouth, and suddenly slapped his head, knowing the true identity of the person who came.

"Damn it, that collector Necron Overlord from Solemnas thought that if he separated his name, no one would be able to recognize it, right?"

"What is the relationship between Trazyn and the Mechanicus? How did these two entities come together?"

Roshi muttered that Trazyn was a complete alien. As one of the high-ranking members of the Necrons, he always viewed humans in a playful manner.

"Let him in, go to the reception room, I will meet him there." Luo Xi told Angie.

The stone man immediately retreated and brought Sage Trazyn from outside the building into it.

Soon, a "humanoid" being with a huge body and a large number of mechanized modifications all over the body entered the reception room and came in front of Luo Xi.

He was at least four meters tall, and was covered in a Martian red robe. Luo Xi saw his exposed electronic eye, which seemed to flash a faint green light.

A large number of gears and capacitors appeared from the raised corners of his clothes. This sage in the field of alien research had a huge mechanical arm on his back. A servo skull connected to the lines floated on one side, constantly recording some data.

"Praise be to Om Messiah, and salute you, Sage of Rohi."

The huge monster in front of him suddenly made a gear salute. Luo Xi was stunned for a moment, then he agreed with a dark face.

"You go out first, Angie, and help me record the experimental data." Luo Xi waved his hand to send the stone man away, then turned and walked to the sage.

"Should I call you Sage Takkar or Overlord Tarasim?"

Suddenly, the huge Mechanicus sage let out a strange chuckle, bent his back slightly, and spoke in a condescending manner.

"Long time no see, Luo Xi. I thought you needed more time to recognize me."

Come on, that's old Trazyn's voice.

Luo Xi would never forget the extremely annoying voice of the overlord of Solemnas. Now that the other party had dropped his disguise and directly admitted his identity, Luo Xi was a little surprised.

"Do you really have your own identity in the Mechanicus? Or a sage?" Luo Xi felt it was a little unbelievable, but he felt that it was not impossible.

Because this guy is the universe-famous collector, artist, and adventurer Tracin.

"Of course. Is this difficult? You know, I have had my own identity and seat since the founding of the Mechanicus. Who else in the Mechanicus has more experience than me?"

Taraxin said proudly that for him, having a human identity did save him a lot of trouble when walking in the human world.

"What are you doing here?" Luo Xi asked. He smelled the other party's restless scent.

A guy like Taraxin would never appear in a place where there is no profit. This guy probably has set his sights on some precious collection and his collecting habit has struck again.

"My friend, your misunderstanding of me really makes me sad. Look, I have squeezed out a few tears." Trazyn cried hypocritically and squeezed out a few drops of motor oil. This somewhat weird Necron overlord always found ways to do something fancy for Roshi.

"How could I be absent from such a major event as the Advanced Technology Community? Moreover, I am the Great Sage of your Mechanicus. Wouldn't it be great for me to show my support now?"

Roche knew that it was the commotion he caused in the Mechanicus that attracted this guy. Trazyn had a strong desire to collect any commemorative life, objects or historical situations, and he was determined to preserve every precious historical relic.

Luo Xi could only hope that what the other party said was true, but Trazyn was indeed very brave. He even dared to enter the solar system where the Emperor was. He dared to bet that as long as Trazyn really appeared in the solar system, the Lord of Mankind would never be unaware of it.

"You don't have to worry about me. This body only carries a trace of my consciousness. Even if I am discovered by your Emperor, I can still run away." Sage Taraxin said. Roxi tasted the smugness in his voice.

Who is worried about you? You, the alien leader, have nothing to do with me, Luo Xi thought to himself.

Strictly speaking, Roshi has had no contact with Trazyn since their encounter in Sotha several years ago. It is difficult for humans to guess the true intentions of a nearly immortal species like the Necrons.

Even though Taraxin had indeed shown a strangely friendly attitude before, Roxi could not judge the other party's friendliness based on this.

After all, it has only been over 30,000 years since humans entered the interstellar age, and the Necrons may have exceeded this number in a single great hibernation.

God knows whether these aliens who have transformed themselves into metal life forms will suddenly have a drastic change of mind.
