Warhammer: Empire Reboot

This tower is the real gold mine.

"dismantle."

The T-series assassins immediately got to work.

The system's arsenal is like an invisible giant maw, swallowing the crystals at the base of the tower layer by layer.

The phase stabilizing loop was removed.

The Blackstone barrier panels were removed.

The Necron alloy was cut and numbered.

Under the swarm intelligence mechanism, the entire outpost was completely dismantled.

Forty minutes later, the last green light went out.

The tomb died a second time.

The checkout window pops up.

[Common Necromancer, Heavy Guardian, Tomb Technician, Scarab, Destroyer Platform Debris, Damaged Wild Scorpion Lord, and Phase Relay Tower have been recovered.]

[Total Rewards: Over 1.12 million Dimensional Anchor Fragments.]

Total proceeds: 189,920 liters of living metal.

Including previous reserves, the total amount of living metal in Lawson's possession has officially exceeded 200,000 liters.

The armory has been expanded three times in succession.

The side length was increased from three meters to six meters.

The basic volume has increased dramatically from 27 cubic meters to 216 cubic meters.

But what truly changed the situation was not "how much more stuff was added".

Instead, this space can finally be upgraded from a portable storage unit into a foldable transit hub.

In the past, armories were too small.

Ammunition, medical kits, power armor parts, live metal, and molten explosives—stuff them all inside, and the space is basically taken up.

If Lawson wanted to use it to transport supplies, he could only do so like moving boxes, stuffing some in and taking others out at a time.

It is different now.

The 216-cubic-meter space was broken down into a three-dimensional honeycomb using swarm intelligence.

The honeycomb cells here are not for long-term storage.

They are responsible for routing, temporary storage, calibration, and transmission.

Each hexagonal honeycomb grid serves as a transit bay for a short stop.

Once the ammunition boxes are moved from the Agrippina military factory into the armory space, they will not be piled up inside to form a warehouse.

It will be briefly caught by a honeycomb grid to confirm the number, weight, hazard level and destination coordinates, and then slide along the folding channel to the exit.

The next second, it will appear next to the ammunition rack of an Astartes company.

Once the medical kits arrive at the Klein system logistics station, they will be assigned to another route and delivered directly to the bleeding Cadian position.

The living metal tanks will be sent to Agrippina's T-series conversion workshop.

The black stone slabs were then transported to the front-line fortress where the anti-subspace node was being built.

The power armor parts are moved from the shipbreaking yard into the Hive, and then dropped onto the repair bench of the Xerox from the other end.

The essence of this space has changed from "existence" to "passage".

Supplies flowed in from all sides of the Empire’s dark side and flowed out from the countless assassin anchor points designated by Lawson.

It's like an invisible heart.

Agrippina is a hematopoietic organ.

The Klein Galaxy is a granary.

The Mordrean Triangle is a transshipment port.

The suicide soldiers in each major battle group are like peripheral blood vessels.

The armory space became the central ventricle that channeled all the blood into the dark side of the entire empire.

Two hundred and sixteen cubic meters doesn't sound like an exaggeration.

If used as a warehouse, it can only hold a few truckloads of supplies.

However, if it is only responsible for high-frequency relay, the amount of materials it handles per minute far exceeds its own volume.

A honeycomb grid caught ten boxes of explosives and sent them away the next second.

Once the space was cleared, it immediately took over three sets of power armor parts.

The next second, another twenty medical kits were transferred.

Thousands of honeycomb cells open, close, slide, and recombine at the same time, like countless miniature freight tracks, operating at high speed in the folded space.

Swarm intelligence no longer sees it as a "box," but as a small starport.

The shape can be changed to a long channel, a cubic hub, or a cylindrical transfer cavity depending on the task.

The interior is a multi-level, honeycomb-shaped station.

Each honeycomb cell is a temporary station.

Each fold boundary is a transport track.

Each static force field acts as a buffer layer to ensure that materials and personnel are not torn apart by inertia, impact, and spatial shear during the transfer.

When the assassins enter, the Hive Grid switches to a personnel transfer pod.

A static force field envelops the body, freezing inertia and calibrating coordinates.

In the next instant, he could step from Agrippina's factory into the trenches of a company tens of thousands of light-years away.

When ammunition arrives, the Hive compartment switches to a standard cargo hold.

When the Black Stone enters, an isolation layer is automatically added to the spatial boundary.

When live metal enters, the honeycomb grid contracts into a cylindrical buffer chamber to prevent the liquid metal from flowing out of control during transport.

When the hot melt explosive is introduced, the surrounding three layers of honeycomb grids will be cleared in advance to form an independent static explosion-proof zone.

Everything is for the sake of spinning faster.

In the past, Lawson relied on the space in the armory to resupply a unit with ammunition.

Now, he can make the entire dark side of the empire share a single logistical system.

The Black Templar Company fired air-explosive bombs, and the suicide squad reported their needs from the anchor point.

The Agrippina military factory is packing the goods.

Armory cellular grid access. Static field calibration. Exit opens. Bomb lands.

The whole process may take less than ten seconds.

A Starfire canned food produced in an agricultural world can bypass a subspace storm and appear directly on the besieged hive defenses.

A piece of armor from a Chaos warship that has just been removed can be sent into the Agrippina Furnace.

A severely injured Astartes can be statically frozen and then transferred back to the medical node.

A squad of White Tiger Armorers can also step out from the Hive Transfer Station and appear directly outside the bridge of an enemy ship.

Lawson stared at the rotating multidimensional honeycomb in his mind.

Countless honeycomb cells opened and closed in the still blue-white light.

Some are connected to Agrippina.

Some lead to Klein.

Some were connected to Dante's fleet.

Some were hung behind the Black Sanctuary Company.

Some are anchored at the edge of the Nakmonde Corridor.

At this moment, the armory space is no longer a mobile warehouse.

It became the central hub of the entire empire's dark logistics network.

Wherever there are assassin anchor points, that's part of the Lawson logistics network.

The significance of 216 cubic meters is never about how much it can hold.

Rather, it's about how much can be transported from one battlefield to another within a single second.

Lawson chuckled softly.

"It used to be called a backpack."

"Later, it could barely be considered a warehouse."

"Now..."

He looked at the rapidly operating multidimensional honeycomb.

"It's finally starting to resemble a logistics system."

Inside the Agrippina Forging Temple, the armory space is activated.

Large quantities of live metal were dumped out.

The T-series assassins were already waiting in the modification factory.

Kexas personally took over the main control array.

He has not left the Temple of Forging for eleven days.

The mechanical body doesn't need rest, but the temperature of its logical core remains near the danger line.

Upon seeing the living metal flowing into the modification pool, the Dark Mechanicus Grand Sage let out a low, data-driven laugh.

"It's finally here."
