Warhammer: Empire Reboot

They were responsible for being the first to rush out, intercept, ram, and push the enemy back.

The innermost eight are taking a long-term approach.

Their task was to surround Lawson's main body, withstand the pressure for a long time, and keep the guard formation intact.

Er Gou and San Gou both assumed command and interception responsibilities, so they also chose to erupt.

The third item is the skeleton.

All guards are uniformly enhanced with the first level of bone hardness enhancement.

Chitinous inner shell can block cuts.

Bone rigidity can help withstand shocks.

Only when both are combined can the Guardians truly qualify as a "wall".

The second and third dogs provide additional enhancements to the first stage of spinal reflexes.

As commanders and deputy commanders, they must give orders faster than others when danger arises.

The spinal reflex enhancement is not meant to make them hunt like hunters, but to make them react half a beat before Lawson does anything.

Many assassinations are just a fraction of a second off.

That is value.

The fourth item is skin and resistance.

Lawson replenished the skin toughness and burn resistance modules for all the Sentinels, and also gave the six Inner Endurance Sentinels an additional first-stage liver toxin metabolism enhancement.

The fifth item is cerebellum and formation stability.

Lawson implanted the first stage of cerebellar balance enhancement into all the Mastiff Sequence Guards.

In the Guardian formation, a gap will appear once someone is knocked down.

Cerebellar balance enhancements help them maintain posture during impacts.

This enhancement is not flashy.

But it is very important for the Guards.

As long as we can hold our ground, the formation will remain intact.

As long as the formation remains intact, Lawson will have space.

The sixth item is the cerebral cortex.

This enhancement is only available for two-dog and three-dog versions.

The route is the first stage of computation in the cerebral cortex.

Er Gou is in charge of the main formation.

Three dogs are in charge of the secondary formation.

They had to determine the positions of the eighteen guards, Lawson's position, the enemy's attack angle, the Shadow Blade's flight path, the risk of the black hole projection, friendly fire, and terrain limitations in a very short time.

Even a normal brain can be processed with the help of bee swarms.

However, with enhanced computational capabilities in the cerebral cortex, their interaction with swarm intelligence becomes even faster.

The reinforcement plan was finally finalized.

Er Gou was the first to start strengthening.

After the enhancement was completed, he did not turn his head, but suddenly spoke.

"Three dogs moved behind me."

San Gou stood behind him, glancing down at his fist.

"I just clenched my fist."

Er Gou said, "I saw it."

Three dogs raised their eyebrows.

"Having eyes on the back of your head is indeed convenient."

Lawson stood in front of him.

How are you feeling?

Er Gou knelt on one knee.

"Boss, I can now see all the blind spots behind you."

"Can it be blocked?"

"It can block the first blow."

"And the second cut?"

"It will still be standing."

Lawson smiled.

"That's enough."

The third dog was the second to complete the transformation.

"BOSS".

"Er Gou can't stop it, I will."

Er Gou glanced at him.

"I will try my best not to give you a chance."

San Gou said, "Then I'll seize the opportunity."

Lawson did not interrupt them.

Competition among the guards is a good thing.

As long as the competition revolves around who can block faster, who can fill in more accurately, and who dies more meaningfully, it meets his needs.

The modifications were completed successively from Mastiff-04 to Mastiff-19.

They didn't say anything more.

Eighteen Terminator guards surrounded Lawson, silent and heavy, like a newly closed iron wall.

And this iron wall will soon come in handy.

The Agrippina theater is very busy now; it is turning into a giant hive.

After the 318 planets were gradually connected to the swarm intelligence, Lawson truly felt the weight of the word "sector" for the first time.

Every assassin was busy.

Like worker bees.

They wouldn't complain, they wouldn't slack off, they wouldn't steal protein canisters from the ration station during lunchtime, and they wouldn't cross a smuggling record off the books just because a local nobleman presented them with a case of old Terra.

They operate, record, provide feedback, and execute.

The entire Agrippina sector began to possess something that the Imperial administrative system had rarely had in the past.

effectiveness.

Lawson watched the constantly fluctuating data stream within the swarm's mind.

The sector has entered the second phase.

The first stage is to survive.

Repel the chaos, defend Agrippina, quell the governor's rebellion, destroy the gene-stealing cult, and restore water, food, and order to those collapsing planets.

The second stage is bone formation.

Fleet, shipyard, warships, production line.

Future wars cannot rely on plunder forever.

Stealing the Red Pirates' ships, the Iron Warriors' ships, and the Rebellious Governor's ships—these are all just temporary measures.

The stolen ship needs repair.

The Chaos Ship needs to be cleaned.

The old naval ships need to be repaired.

Local gunboats need to be modified.

These can quickly replenish combat power, but cannot support the long-term expansion of a sector-level power.

Lawson wanted his own forging capabilities.

Agrippina was originally the one who forged the world.

It once possessed complete ship production, maintenance, and military supply capabilities, but after the Great Rift, the Chaos invasion pressed too hard, forcing all production capacity to be tilted towards short-term warfare.

Macro-cannon shells. Explosive shells. Armor plates. Ground vehicles. Orbital defense cannons. Servant repairs. Temporary hull patches.

Build whatever is needed on the battlefield first.

That makes sense.

When demons ram the door, no one will take the time to slowly lay the keel of a new battleship.

But now the situation has changed.

The Agrippina sector began to fall under Lawson's control.

The Red Pirates temporarily retreated.

The Khorne Legion is unlikely to launch another large-scale invasion in the near future.

This period is the window of opportunity for Agrippina to readjust the production capacity structure.

Lawson intends to shift a portion of the world's production capacity from short-term consumables to warship manufacturing.

He had just received a joint report from T-001 and Kexos.

The content is very short.
