But... these runes do not belong to humans.

Andy walked closer to take a closer look.

The red ones are the spirit bone runes of the Eldar, the green ones are the totem marks of the Orcs, and the gray-green ones are the hieroglyphs of the Necromancers.

There are even some distorted, indescribable symbols that may come from some extinct alien race.

In that golden age, before so many religious taboos and the numerous accusations of "alien defilement," humanity's attitude towards aliens was arrogant and pragmatic.

Since your technology is more advanced than mine, or has unique features, then I will capture you, dismantle you, thoroughly understand your technology, and then make it mine. And this circular platform is used for that purpose.

It is a universal reverse engineering platform that is compatible with a significant portion of the known alien matter and energy forms in the Milky Way.

"I don't know, but I'll try it first."

Andy took out a piece of the Spirit Race Nether Bone from his pouch and placed it in the center of the round platform where the Spirit Race runes were engraved.

A soft "hum" sounded.

The truncated cone has been activated.

Countless black liquids suddenly gushed out from the previously still black surface.

Upon closer inspection, it is not a liquid at all, but hundreds of millions of nanorobots that are almost invisible to the naked eye.

Like a swarm of hungry ants, they instantly enveloped the piece of ghost bone.

There was no cutting sound, and no sparks.

The incredibly hard Nether Bone, which even explosive bombs couldn't shatter, melted and disintegrated at a visible speed under the decomposition of the nanobots.

A few seconds later, the bone disappeared.

Instead, a holographic data stream is projected from above the pedestal.

Sample analysis complete.

[Material Composition: A polymer of psionic energy and matter.]

[Potential technology paths:]

[1. Psionic Resonance Essence (requires psionic power, not recommended).]

2. Subspace energy conduit (requires Gellér force field assistance).

3. Type-IV high-label biological neural bundle (high conductivity/low delay).

……

Looking at the options, Andy chose the third one without hesitation.

The others all require psionic or warp technology, which Andy isn't yet proficient in.

But the third one is exactly what he desperately needs.

Let alone the T-9000 exoskeleton, even Andy himself, despite his incredible computing power, still controls his body through super cables and hydraulic signal transmission.

There is a delay in the process.

The Type-IV high-label nerve bundle is a marvel of bionics. Not only does it have a conductivity thousands of times that of gold, but it can also perfectly simulate the signal transmission mode of biological nerves and even carry a certain degree of consciousness data flow.

If you replaced those super cables inside Andy's body with this.

His reaction speed will no longer be limited by hardware; every thought can be instantly transformed into action.

“Execute the conversion.”

Andy gave the order.

The nanobots on the platform began to stir again.

They used the special substances obtained from decomposing the Netherworld Bone to begin rearranging and combining them.

A few minutes later.

The black tide receded.

In the center of the round platform, a bundle of extremely thin, silvery-white cables lay quietly.

They look like some kind of living biological tissue, with even faint pulsations on their surface.

Andy reached out and picked up the bundle of nerves.

Conversion rate: 98%.

Loss/loss: 2%.

Only 2% loss!

If those sages from the Cult of Mechanics saw this, they'd probably gouge out their prosthetic eyes and eat them on the spot!

It is important to know that mechanical processing of such irregularly shaped materials typically results in a loss rate of over 30%, and can also damage the material's properties.

This platform, through direct physical atomic recombination, perfectly preserves the material's properties while eliminating subspace impurities.

"Cool!"

Andy stuffed the nerve bundle into his waist bag, feeling like he'd hit the jackpot.

With this, I'll find some time to upgrade both the exoskeleton and my own body, and my combat power will at least double.

He was about to pull out some other strange junk to try.

Chapter 95 Andy's Disembowelment

Six days have passed.

In just six days, the underground core of Horisonburg has been completely transformed.

The once empty and quiet hall of the ruins is now filled with the roar of machinery, the hiss of high-pressure steam leaks, and the reassuring, booming noise of people.

Andy replanned the core area, dividing it into two large areas, left and right, and used these as the basis for material storage and supporting facilities construction.

To be honest, this arrangement wasn't something Andy had planned from the beginning; he was forced into it.

Initially, Andy wanted to dig out the "Alien Technology Analysis Station" and move it to a more spacious place so that it could be paired with the other black boxes.

Upon handling it, it was discovered that the base of this thing was deeply rooted in the earth's crust, seemingly connected to an energy network of the earth's veins.

Whether it's pulled by a crane or cut with thermoelectric cutting, it won't budge.

Andy used an anti-gravity drone, but apart from burning out two engines, it didn't even get a scratch.

At that moment, Andy was truly enraged.

Enraged, Andy directly commanded the engineering team to use directional blasting to create a 200-meter-long underground tunnel beneath a relatively intact factory area closest to the analysis station.

Thus, a huge "L"-shaped underground industrial zone was born.

The West Zone has established its current raw material production center around the "Material Molecular Reconstruction Instrument," while the East Zone is the "Alien Technology Analysis Station," which was just activated a couple of days ago and is now the core component conversion center.

At the corner of the L-shape, the intersection of the two areas was forcibly connected by Andy using a large number of conveyor belts and a precision processing production line.

Only then was the production process finally running smoothly.

In the past, when Andy was in charge of production, he had both the technology and the capacity.

To manufacture advanced products like anti-gravity arrays, vacuum field shields, and attitude balancers, you need to replenish production capacity all over the world.

If you want to play with alien technology, even if you understand the principles, you can't find the matching core technology, so you can only stare blankly.

it's good now.

The reconstruction device is responsible for consuming industrial waste and spitting out high-purity basic materials, while the analysis station is responsible for consuming irregularly shaped debris and spitting out universal high-tech components.

The two are combined, with the addition of that precision machining production line in between.

This means that Andy now has the ability to directly transform any form of waste into high-tech products.

Sisyphus and his men are outside, carrying out a frenzied demolition operation.

Every scrap steel beam, every rotten alloy plate, and even the copper cables buried under the floor tiles for thousands of years in the Horisonburg ruins were dug out by them, and truckloads of industrial waste were sent into the feed inlet of the reconstruction machine.

Then, amidst a buzzing sound, they transformed into shimmering silver ingots of chromium-molybdenum steel and tungsten-titanium alloy.

Next, these hot metal ingots are sent to the adjacent machining center to be cut into armor plates, frames, and gun barrels.

Meanwhile, Roger, along with the people from Engineering Department II, delivered the alien stockpile they had stolen from Kaka, as well as various strange remains they had collected during this period, to the analysis station in the East District.

The analysis station accepts all submissions and deconstructs these materials into biological neural bundles and unreplicable cutting-edge technology components.

Finally, in the final assembly workshop.

Parts from different sources eventually come together.

After a great deal of effort to disassemble the T-9000 exoskeleton, a series of brand-new "Vanguard" class assault power armors were finally assembled.

"Bauer! What's the yield rate for nerve bundles?"

Andy asked over the communication channel.

"Perfectly stable, boss!" Bauer's voice was filled with excitement. "Holy crap, the parser is amazing! The Type-IV neural bundles it converted have extremely high activity. When connected to our servo motors, the latency is reduced to zero!"

In addition to the exoskeleton, the drones have also been upgraded.

Andy applied the miniature high-energy battery technology that he reverse-engineered from the Joka Ring to the Raptor drone.

Although Andy's current technology can't make a battery pack as small as a ring, it's still no problem to make one the size of a fist.

This battery pack has fifty times the energy density of the Imperial standard battery.

Previously, the Raptor drone would only fly for half an hour before needing to return home to recharge, but now...?

It can stay airborne and patrol for an entire day!

This means that Andy's air strike range has been expanded from within visual range to a radius of hundreds of kilometers.

But that's not the most important thing; the most important thing is Andy himself.

He walked up to the "DAOT Universal Maintenance Cabin" that had been repaired.

The hatch opened, revealing a pale blue repair gel inside.

Andy took off his yellow robe, revealing a metal body covered in scratches.

After careful consideration, he plans to upgrade himself as soon as possible.

As an Iron Man, Andy's processor computing power is overflowing, but the hardware of his engineering body is too weak.

The super-cable and hydraulic architecture limited his performance.

Now, he wants to replace all the transmission lines in his body with this Type-IV high-standard biological nerve bundle.

The process might be a bit scary, since it involves taking yourself apart and putting yourself back together.

Andy lay down inside:

"Xiao Liu, take over the maintenance program."

Xiao Liu controlled the robotic arm in the maintenance cabin and began to "disembowel" Andy.

The old cables were pulled out one by one and thrown on the ground.

The new silver-white nerve bundles were implanted deep into the metal skeleton, connecting to each servo motor and sensor node.

Three hours later.

Andy came out of the maintenance bay.

The exhilarating feeling of being able to instantly achieve any movement Andy wanted to do left him feeling refreshed and comfortable.

His computing power can finally be fully translated into physical actions.

Even without any external armor, he can now dismantle a Dreadnought mech with his bare hands, relying solely on his body's reaction speed.

After exiting the underground facility, Andy arrived at the surface.

By this time, Horisonburg had been transformed into an iron fortress.

It must be said that the location of this site is absolutely perfect.

Its underground geothermal energy network is still intact; it can be used as long as the pipes are plugged in.

A steady stream of electricity supplies the factory and defense systems.

Moreover, the industrial zone here has a very solid foundation, which is entirely made of ultra-high-strength polymer that Andy has not yet fully deciphered, saving Andy at least two or three months of infrastructure construction time, allowing him to move in immediately.
