Chapter 735: Maintaining the Golden Throne
The wind blew through the laboratory of the Sun Fortress. It was the wind emitted by the cooling equipment in the laboratory, which adjusted the indoor temperature to minus 20 degrees Celsius. In this low-temperature environment, several traversers from the First Engineer Corps were conducting experiments on a material. This material is in liquid form at room temperature, but in a low-temperature environment, it is in solid form. The melting point of this material is very low, and even a temperature of one degree will melt it. This thing is actually not natural. It belongs to the First Engineer Corps, and they made it recently out of boredom. The traversers from the First Engineer Corps hope to put this material to good use, and they are currently conducting intensive experiments on this material.

Just when those time travelers were preparing to conduct some experiments on this material, the alarm system in the laboratory of the First Engineer Corps suddenly sounded. After hearing the alarm, those time travelers did not react too much. They quickly collected the material and stored it away. Then they found a corner in the laboratory and squatted in that corner, quietly waiting for something.
Within a minute or two, a violent explosion was heard from the laboratory next to theirs, and this violent explosion also blew out the wall of their laboratory. The entrepreneurs looked at the blown-up alloy wall, and there was no change in the expressions on their faces, as if this was just an ordinary thing. For the First Engineer Corps, these things were indeed ordinary. After all, every time the First Engineer Corps conducted research, the accidents were relatively large, and they were now accustomed to this experimental mode.

After all, the main purpose of their research is to manufacture weapons for their comrades in the legion. To manufacture weapons, they must test their lethality, and the damage caused in the process of these lethality experiments is inevitable. However, the damage caused to the ship this time is secondary. The main thing is the people involved in this weapons experiment.

Wang Ming stared at the several time travelers from the First Engineer Corps in front of him, as well as the several federal scientists beside them. He was completely speechless about these guys. He just stared at them, and then a huge warhead beside him that was floating in the air using his psychic power slowly floated in front of those time travelers.

"Do you need to explain to me why I just walked here and was attacked by your new weapons?"

Wang Ming stared at the time travelers from the First Engineer Corps in front of him, as well as the federal scientists who were whistling and looking as if it was none of their business. He knew, of course, that this incident was a coincidence, but the experiments of the First Engineer Corps were too dangerous. The thing they came up with this time shot through three layers of the ship's alloy wall with one shot, and almost hit Wang Ming's head. If Wang Ming hadn't used his psychic power to forcibly stop the thing, with its power, it would probably have been able to penetrate two layers of alloy walls.

"This is a surprise, boss. We didn't expect this weapon to be so powerful. When we did the virtual calculations before, the power of this thing could only penetrate an alloy wall at most. Who knew that after changing the material and propulsion method of its warhead..."

The traverser in charge of this weapons project looked at the bullet in front of him, scratched his head, and then said to Wang Ming with embarrassment that they did not expect this thing to be so powerful. In the previous calculations, the power of this thing was not so great, but in actual experiments, the power of this thing was more than three times their ideal state. This thing can definitely kill a big demon with one shot, but it must hit the head directly.

Otherwise, with the big demon's recovery ability, he would be able to recover in a while, and the energy storage of this thing is also a problem. The design of these things is based on a kind of electromagnetic acceleration naval gun of the Federation. They just miniaturized this thing, and they didn't consider the energy problem of this thing at all. Originally, this thing was developed just as a technical reserve.

"Okay, it's just a joke, can these things be mass-produced?"

Wang Ming looked at the embarrassed expression of the time traveler in front of him and he sighed. He knew that the experiments of the First Engineer Corps had always been dangerous, so he arranged their laboratory in the outer area of ​​the Sun Fortress. Anyway, if something happened and the hull of the Sun Fortress was really pierced, they would float in the void. With their physical fitness and the physical fitness of those federal scientists, they would not die at all if they floated in the void for a few days. They could just be rescued then.

"As for mass production, we can start production anytime as long as you sign an approval document. However, the energy storage of this thing is a huge problem. We are currently using the Federation's general military batteries for energy storage, but the quantity required... you should check it out for yourself."

After the time traveler heard Wang Ming's words, he became excited when talking about weapons, and immediately explained the situation of this weapon to Wang Ming. This kind of weapon can be mass-produced at any time, anyway, the STC template can be turned on on site, but the energy storage of this thing is a huge problem.

Currently they are using the Federation's general military batteries to power it, and when Wang Ming followed them to the huge battery array, he was also shocked by the energy consumption of this thing. This thing is essentially a miniaturized product of a battleship's naval gun, and the battery array it needs is larger than that of an Astartes. There is not much problem in letting an Astartes move with such a large thing, but in a battlefield environment, such a large thing can easily become the enemy's main target of attack, and if this thing is overloaded, the power of the explosion is comparable to that of a small-yield nuclear weapon.

After thinking about it, Wang Ming approved the mass production of this weapon, and he needed it now. Although this thing could not be used on a normal battlefield, it could be handed over to the Second Regiment. Let these guys use these things to hunt down those big demons. Even if the battery array behind them was overloaded, it would not be a big deal. Anyway, their combat environment was mostly among the demon groups, far away from other troops. The power of this thing, which was comparable to the explosion of a small nuclear weapon, was much greater than the thermal melt bomb they had used before.

With Wang Ming's approval and resource mobilization, this thing soon began mass production. During the mass production process, Wang Ming also went to the traverser dormitory in the Sun Fortress. Wang Ming directly pulled out the third and fourth regiments in the traverser dormitory. Previously, due to the tactical style of these two corps, they were placed on the Sun Fortress, but now, it is more appropriate to transfer these two corps to the network for support. After arranging for these two troops to enter the network for support, Wang Ming went to the armory on the Sun Fortress. He needed to replenish some weapons for the mortal auxiliary army, and also needed to replenish some weapons for the traverser troops in the network. Although the traversers' use of hot weapons is not so great, it is also very good to replenish some armored firepower and take out the large number of new power armors in the armory for them to use. Anyway, these things are in the warehouse and they are not used in vain. This battle just consumes all these stocks.

After Wang Ming had arranged everything, he took the two legions back to Holy Terra. After arranging the two legions and supplies into the webway for combat, Wang Ming did not directly enter the webway to fight. He went directly to the throne room. He still needed some support for this battle. Anyway, those resources were there and would be wasted if they were not used. He might as well just grab them all.

Just when Wang Ming was heading to the throne room to ask the Emperor for some support, a large number of Cursed Legion troops suddenly appeared in the webway. In fact, Wang Ming did not need to ask the Emperor directly for these troops. The Emperor gave them to Wang Ming directly. As for why He did not inform Wang Ming in advance, it was actually because the Emperor now had some things he needed to discuss with Wang Ming, regarding the Golden Throne.

The Golden Throne has begun to show signs of aging and damage over the tens of thousands of years, and since the Empire's technology is unable to repair this relic of the dark technological age, the Empire is actually heading towards an irreversible path of destruction. As long as the Golden Throne is completely damaged one day, it will be the beginning of humanity's destruction. On that day, the Lord of Mankind will stand up on the Golden Throne, and He will break away from the concept of a human being and become a true god. The price of His ascension to God is to sacrifice the entire human civilization. This is something that the Emperor cannot accept, and it is also something that the Emperor and Wang Ming are now trying their best to stop.

"I have already arranged the Cursed Legion into the webway. I now want to discuss something with you. There is a group of federal scientists on your fleet, and I want them to try to see if they can repair the Golden Throne."

In the throne room, the Emperor looked at Wang Ming. He did not beat around the bush and talk too much nonsense to Wang Ming. Instead, he directly asked Wang Ming whether he could ask the federal scientists on his fleet to repair the Golden Throne for him. After Wang Ming heard the Emperor's words, he also reacted. The large number of battles before had almost made him forget the threat of the Golden Throne. You know, apart from the Webway, the aging of this thing is the biggest time bomb for Holy Terra and even the Human Empire.

If this thing is completely damaged, the entire human civilization will be destroyed along with the emperor. After hearing the emperor's words, Wang Ming immediately went to do this matter. However, the handling of this matter was not as simple as Wang Ming thought. With the help of the emperor, Wang Ming also got the simple structure diagram of the golden throne. When he showed this structure diagram to the scientists of the federation, those federal scientists were also very familiar with this device.

After all, this thing can be regarded as a milestone in the development of the Federation's psychic science. Unfortunately, the Federation scientists on the fleet can only find a way to repair a part of the Golden Throne, because the original research data of this thing has been lost, and this thing does not even exist in Wang Ming's system. Obviously, the information about this thing has not been included in the Federation's official research data. This thing is a typical experimental creation of those Federation scientists.

It would be great if we could find the black glass prototype of the Golden Throne. By reverse engineering this thing, we should be able to spend some time understanding the original manufacturing process of this device of the Golden Network, and then thoroughly understand the principles and manufacturing process of this technology, so that we can completely repair the Golden Throne.

However, the only way to find the prototype of the black glass now is after the end of the Cyberway War. Now we can only let these federal scientists come bit by bit. The more we can repair, the better. At least delaying the collapse of the Golden Throne will be very good. And just as Wang Ming prepared the materials according to the arrangements of those federal scientists, he took them to Holy Terra.

Another problem appeared in front of them, that is, the emperor's halo was too dazzling. Although the emperor had tried his best to converge these lights, these lights would still make the work more complicated to a certain extent. However, this was not a big problem. Just give each scientist a pair of sunglasses. So they began to carry out maintenance work on the Golden Throne under this circumstance. They were very careful in the work process. Before coming, Wang Ming had explained to them the importance of this mission.

The importance of the Golden Throne and the Emperor to human civilization today has been explained to them, so they cannot allow themselves to make any mistakes. Even the slightest mistake may lead to the destruction of human civilization in their hands. The entire maintenance process is carried out very slowly, and while these scientists are maintaining it, the imperial guards have gathered in the throne room. As long as there is anything wrong, they will immediately take corresponding countermeasures against Wang Ming and those scientists.

Although they have received the emperor's orders, they are still wary of everything. This is the habit of the Imperial Guards.

Wang Ming has also been waiting in the throne room for the completion of the maintenance work. He is even prepared. If any unexpected situation really happens, he will try his best to stop the emperor's deification process, or do his utmost to protect Holy Terra from becoming the next Eye of Terror.
