Warhammer in a box

Chapter 79 Manufacturing Difficulties

"Mudifar, I believe that you who have come to this world have also seen the level of technology in this world. The human technology here is still at the stage of cold weapons and steam gunpowder. Although there are some unique rune magic and psychic-like powers here, not everyone can master them. There are still too few people in this group.

These powers are also unable to change the world's structure and resolve the current dangers. Can you complete the production and maintenance of the Empire's weapons and equipment in this world?"

Zhang Heng asked directly.

But after thinking for a moment, Mudifar gave a painful reality.

"Great Emperor, unfortunately, it is impossible to achieve mass production with the current technological level of this world. If you are talking about weapons like laser rifles or hot melts, although I know the relevant manufacturing technology, I don't know how long it will take me to achieve it alone without sufficient materials and production line assistance. The finished product may malfunction or even be damaged after a few shots.

Materials, energy, chemical elements, tools, these are all linked together, but if you are talking about maintenance, I can still do it, but it is definitely not as perfect as in the Empire, I beg for your forgiveness!"

After saying this, Mudifar lowered his head even lower.

"Oh, is that really the case?" In fact, Zhang Heng was mentally prepared for Mudifar's answer. Even those ordinary laser rifles with large heads and wide equipment manufactured in the Hive City were supported by an entire Lower Nest Industrial Zone, with countless workers and equipment operating day and night.

A considerable number of gang members, planetary defense forces, and security forces in the hive city still only use kinetic weapons.

At this time, Terra could be said to have nothing, but at most it had only some furnaces and hammers for forging.

"Mudifar, if there are some existing workshops and some skilled workers, can you make some automatic weapons with relatively simple structures?" Zhang Heng asked as a second choice.

"Automatic weapons? You mean the ones that still use propellant to fire a solid projectile?"

"That's right!"

Mudifar's electronic eyes flickered and he quickly gave an answer.

"This is completely doable. If you're firing solid ammunition, the material requirements for the gun body won't be that high. Along the way, I found some soldiers using simple, outdated single-shot long-range gunpowder. Since they already have simple guns, that means they have ready-made materials and ammunition propellants that can be used.

Give me one of their guns and I'll come to a conclusion pretty quickly."

"very good!"

Through voice transmission, Zhang Heng quickly asked Gulman to bring a Thunder Rifle and some black gunpowder.

After getting the sample, Mudifar quickly began his observation and analysis. Only two or three minutes later, he told Zhang Heng the good news.

"Great Emperor, no problem, these materials are qualified, and this raw black powder can also burst out greater kinetic energy than I imagined. There is no problem in making automatic weapons!"

Mudifar seemed very excited, as if it was his greatest honor to help Zhang Heng complete the task.

"Then this task is handed over to you. You take a day off, and then follow my followers to another human city here. Perhaps you can find the production equipment you want there!"

"I understand."

"Also, can the mechanical arms and the like on your body be removed? The humans in this world have a natural fear of unknown things."

"Yes, my modifications are not that deep. The mechanical arms and servo skull can be removed. The modified arms and legs can be covered with clothes, and the brain interface can also be covered with a hood. Please rest assured."

After saying that, Mudifar disassembled the connection device, mechanical arm and servo skull on his back. It seemed that after putting on the clothes, he only had a mechanical prosthetic eye which was special. At most, he could just wear an eyepatch.

"Very good!" Nunn is the next stage of Zhang Heng's plan. It is still unknown how long it will take to build an entire production line from scratch. The investment in personnel, materials and money is obviously daunting. Instead of making it by himself, it is better to see if we can get some ready-made ones.

Zhang Heng had just made promises to the Nunn engineer named Charles West in Aldorf.

It would be great if the groundbreaking weapon could help him make friends with Nuln Lords and gain their support.

Even as a high-dimensional being that transcends the world in the box, Zhang Heng's abilities are limited. He cannot take care of the entire world by himself. When the end comes, it will not be just one or two places that will be swept away, but the entire empire and even the whole world. There are also four guys with terrifying power in the Chaos Demon Realm who are eyeing him covetously.

The Skaven Horned Rat, Nagash, and even Lilith who was waiting to backstab and cause trouble.

What he has to do is to unite or lead as many Order forces as possible and increase their overall strength.

After a night, by the afternoon of the next day, Gurman had already arranged the personnel.

Gurman himself, Bourne, 30 Terran guards equipped with bulletproof armor and chainswords, 20 soldiers armed with thunder rifles and 30 spearmen, but there was also a group of unexpected people in the team.

Belegar and his 10 dwarf warriors were among them.

"Brother Gurman, can we stop by and take a look around there when we go to Noon this time? I haven't been there yet!"

Bourne has grown a lot during this time, but despite his age, he is still lively, optimistic, and a little playful.

"Bourne, this time we are here to do serious work, not to play. We must not delay the Emperor's business."

"Okay, I get it, don't worry!"

"But Belegar, why are you here too?"

"I haven't done anything here lately and I feel like my bones are rusty. It's a good opportunity for me to go to Nuln with you guys. The last time I went to Nuln was many years ago. I remember there were one or two human engineer friends there, but judging by the years, they may not be here anymore."

After all, dwarves live much longer than humans.

"That's fine, we'll have a companion along the way. Okay, Mudifar is here, let's get ready to go!"

At this time, Mudifar also came out of the house, but the huge gear-powered axe on his back made him look very difficult to deal with.

"Mudifar, let's go, get ready to go."

"Hmm" Mudifar simply hummed and followed them.

Belegar looked at this Mudifar whom he had never seen before and guessed in his heart.

"Why are the messengers sent by this god called the Emperor so special? Where do they come from?"

"That rune on your weapon is interesting."

Suddenly Belegar discovered that Mudifar was staring at the hammer behind him. It turned out that Mudifar discovered the runes on Belegar's hammer. The people of the Mechanicus are always full of desire for this kind of unknown knowledge.
