Warhammer 40 Spring: Loyalty of the Multiverse

Chapter 48: Cooperation Begins

With the arrival of the Fiery Angels, various machines and personnel throughout China began to be withdrawn and mobilized.

Especially after both sides worked together to overcome the barriers to information exchange, the sharing and research of various technologies reached a fever pitch.

The technical sergeants carefully placed storage devices containing various technologies into their toolkits.

The scientist stared excitedly at the list of technical information names displayed on the computer screen.

Anti-gravity! Powered weapons! New alloy materials...

Especially when mechs, this technology began to be jointly researched and developed by both sides.

This guy, Derrens, even took a pickaxe and a monomolecular dagger that he somehow got his hands on and engraved imperial words on the outer armor of the experimental mechs that were about to be installed.

Furthermore, Commander Afus even suggested scaling down the mechs upon returning, combining them with the technology of the Dreadnoughts, so that veterans who had completely lost their limbs could enter them.

This proposal was unanimously approved by all the brothers in the warband. However, the scientists who learned the specifics saw it as somewhat violating human rights and ethics.

But this is the current state of Warhammer 40k!
The mecha manufacturing went smoothly. Thanks to China's powerful industrial chain and terrifying manufacturing capabilities, after some technical analysis, all the parts were gathered in just half a month, and then assembly and production took another month.

However, the final armor shell was never installed.

Because all the outer shells had to be inscribed with the emperor's sacred words. Moreover, according to tradition, the carver should even perform a ritual similar to three kneelings and nine kowtows to praise the emperor for each stroke.

Derens initially wanted to do the same, but in the final stage, before he could even finish carving the armor on his feet, he was knocked unconscious by a punch from the captain who had regained his mobility.

Then, under the commander's orders, all the Seraphim began to carve the Holy Word on various parts of these armors using their monomolecular daggers.

Poor Derens, after being knocked unconscious by the captain, was ordered to kneel on one knee in front of the giant mech and then begin to recite the Holy Word devoutly.

The other brothers listened to his recitation and began carving in various places!

Quan Tiehua sniffed as he watched this scene. For some reason, he was reminded of the Perfect City during the Great Expedition.

The Word Bearers and their father, Loka, are nothing short of religious fanatics. They call the Emperor a god.

However, the Emperor refused the title because of the Warp. Furthermore, these individuals, in their efforts to promote the Emperor's faith, slowed down the Great Crusade. He then ordered the Word Bearers to kneel and watch the Ultramarines destroy their Perfect City.

Because of these events, when the rebellion finally broke out, the Word Bearers collectively sided with Chaos.

But the ridiculous thing is...

Loka, who had become the Demon Prince of Chaos, never imagined that the Holy Word he wrote, which the Emperor considered heretical, would become one of the important pillars protecting the entire human empire after the Emperor sat on the Golden Throne.

This immense mockery is unbearable for anyone.

What he found even more unbearable was that after becoming the Demon Prince, he was often driven to the brink of collapse by the taunts of these believers who worshipped the Emperor and held the Emperor's Holy Words that he had once written!

This is truly a story of filial piety and parental love, a truly heartwarming tale of great filial piety!

Looking at Drenthe kneeling below, reciting the Word of God, Quan Tiehua tried even harder to suppress his laughter. Drenthe, for some reason, felt a strange sense of familiarity with this scene. And it was a very familiar yet unsettling feeling.

Even after the sacred words were read, he looked up at the brothers carved all over the armor.

He always had a feeling that some people were secretly laughing!
……

After the last piece of armor was secured, Commander Aphrodite, who had removed his power armor, put on a specific plastic-textured suit.

However, unlike other designs, the interfaces on its body that should connect to the power armor were exposed.

This is a technology developed jointly by technical sergeants and scientists.

They combined neural connections with this technology on the power armor, allowing Astartes to pilot this mech, which is almost second only to the Imperial Titan.

As a disc at the top descends, mechanical tentacles extend from it and begin to attach to various interfaces.

The moment the interface was connected, the numbers on the screen in the laboratory that were undergoing neural connection jumped up and down, then started to move steadily forward like a heartbeat graph.

With the first step successful, various experiments followed. The technology used in the chainsaw sword was employed to mount a retractable chainsaw weapon on either side of the arm.

However, due to material limitations, and the fact that this is an experimental machine, its saw blade does not use a single-molecule material. Anyway, the technology and experimental data are all here; at worst, we can just go back to the Empire, re-experiment with the data, and change the materials, right?
Furthermore, the entire mech is equipped with anti-gravity devices. And this is to suit the unique environment of the Empire.

The mechs are mostly assembled using modular components. For example, the internal structure and the external armor.

If you want to use mass-produced cannon fodder, then just change the materials. Just find any machine, even a stamping press from the 2-3 era, and it can mass-produce these parts. Then just slap on the engine and some other components, and you've got cannon fodder!
Furthermore, this mech has various weapon mounting slots on its shoulders, head, and even its waist and legs, built according to the instructions of the technical sergeants.

The idea is so that when we return to the Empire, we can simply pick up those weapon harnesses, connect them, assemble them, screw them in, and they're ready to use right away.

A miniature plasma rapid-fire cannon modeled after a plasma pistol. A total of four cannons were placed directly on either side of the head.

Although it is a rapid-fire cannon, due to its obvious drawbacks, it can only fire for one minute before needing to cool down.

But that's enough; after testing, each shot could directly penetrate an Astartes.

Furthermore, a large recessed groove was left on the back of this massive mech. This was for equipping the Void Shield after returning to the Empire.

After all, the Seraphim have positioned it as a fast-moving, highly mobile melee destroyer titan.

Without the Void Shield, you might get blown to pieces by an enemy's shot during a charge.

"Experiment successful!"

With each of the planned experimental projects completed and marked as qualified, the mecha's experimental project came to a perfect end.

However, this mecha was an experimental machine because many subsequent technologies could not be analyzed and manufactured in a short time. Therefore, many parts of this mecha were simple replacement devices.
