While the war and the plots of all parties on the Huagai Star are in full swing, the main force of the Great Expedition Fleet is still in the subspace, with no time, no space, no direction, etc. in the physical universe.

Navigating within the space of rules.

Of course, it is not certain whether it is sailing or not.

Because, as we all know, there is no concept of 'navigation', 'time' and 'speed' in subspace, and none of those exist in subspace.

Those words are just boring nouns and units of measurement that creatures in the physical universe like humans forcibly imagined and put into the subspace after entering. As for the specific manifestation of "navigation" in the subspace,

What it looked like, perhaps, wasn't even clear to a man sitting in the bridge office of the command carrier Emperor's Dream, one of the three flagships during the Great Crusade, right?

At this time, the Emperor, the one with the Alien Terminator, the Boomer Chaos, the Emperor, Augustus, Caesar, the Forefather, the Stranger, He on Terra, the Almighty Father, Brahma, the Lord of Mankind, the Immortal Emperor

, Golden King, Ohm Messiah, Prophet, Incarnation of Imperial Justice, Holy Emperor of Holy Terra, Specialist for Firepower Phobia, Space Jesus, Human Emperor of All Humanity, Glorious Overlord, Pure Man, Absolute Leader of the Empire,

The man with titles such as Star Man, King of Terra, Big Man in Golden Armor, etc. was frowning slightly as he looked at the summary of information that the Astropaths had received intermittently in his hand.

Above, that is the various information transmitted from the Horus fleet about the Federation of Heroes of the Krupp Sector and the humans and technology in the sector that Horus is currently in contact with on the Huagai Star. Anyway, they look very similar.

That's the same thing.

"Viking?"

"The ultimate air and ground support combat tool for humans in the sector. It can not only serve as an offensive infantry combat robot, but also transform into a fighter with great air combat advantages. The Viking fighter can meet the strategic needs of different combat stages, and can

Our warships also pose a huge threat..."

"It has a space jump engine, a phase kinetic energy barrier, and powerful firepower, but so far it has only collected a lot of wreckage with varying degrees of damage?"

"Space jump..."

Seeing this, the big man in golden armor pondered for a while and began to think about the word that seemed a bit unfamiliar to him.

As for the so-called phase kinetic energy barrier, he didn't pay much attention at all.

Thinking about it, after all, their empire has a mature and easy-to-use void shield. The so-called kinetic energy barrier seems to be just the same thing to him, and it is not worthy of him to take a second look.

"Mass Effect Field?"

"Element Zero?"

"It can generate shields, and in some cases allow human spaceships to sail at infinite super-light speeds without ignoring the relativistic time dilation effect. It is said that it can even reach the terrifying level of tens of light-years in an instant.

?”

"Whose joke is this?"

"If this is true, why don't the humans in those star regions use it themselves, but choose to use the so-called 'space jump' technology?"

"Where is the 'Element Zero' in the universe?"

Seeing the descriptions of the mass effect in the report by the priests of the Mechanicum in the Horus forces, the Emperor finally sneered and shook his head.

Of course, what if the cold, almost paralyzed expression on his face could be considered a 'sneer'?

"Well……"

After skipping the relevant explanations and descriptions of the 'Mass Effect Field' which only used words such as 'supposedly' and 'rumored' but without any more facts to support it, the big guy in golden armor continued to speak noncommittally.

Look down the report.

"Optical and radar stealth technology, but psykers and super-sensory Astartes can detect them at close range?"

"Meaningless!"

"?!"

"Cold fusion reactor?"

"Sting electromagnetic rifle?"

"CMC armor has been mass-produced and installed. Tens of millions of soldiers have one suit each. Several veterans are enough to kill one Astartes?"

"this!"

"Does every soldier have shield technology?"

"If the Astartes can all be equipped with that kind of CMC armor, I don't know which one is better than today's power armor?"

"This is……"

"!!"

"The 'Thunder God' is so powerful that it can't lose to the Titan mecha in a head-to-head duel?"

"besides……"

"A mass-produced mass-produced fortress with more powerful firepower, longer attack range, thicker shield armor, and super maneuverability - a battlecruiser?"

Finally, when I saw that the humans in that star area seemed to have dispatched more than 300 warships, and with just those 300 or so warships, they were able to overwhelm the loaders who were currently stranded in the Taiwei galaxy and had at least more than 3,000 warships.

The Russ fleet dragged along and even made quite a few gains. So far, it had not recorded a single sectoral battlecruiser being sunk. The Emperor's gaze stopped once again.

"Although its shield and gun range are at least two to three times that of the Glory Queen-class battleship, it's not impossible to deal with it, it's just..."

"Due to the super mobility brought by the jumping ability, I'm afraid it will be difficult to win..."

"Space jump?"

"Is there really such advanced and mature transmission technology?"

“You don’t need to enter Mandeville Point to travel faster than light speed?”

In the end, after reading the report, the big man in golden armor once again focused on the so-called mature 'space jump' technology at the beginning.

There is no doubt that what he values ​​most is the so-called 'jump', because if that is true, if that technology can really be used by humans, perhaps, he has prepared the plan for countless years.

You can just give up in advance.

After all, that 'jump' seems to be much better than the plan he prepared, so much so that it is exaggerated to say that the two are not at the same level?

but……

That was a technology that no human being in the Golden Age had ever obtained, and it seemed that not even the Ancient Saints had it. Now, although he had vaguely heard of similar technology in the Milky Way, he didn't know what it was, and whether there were any humans in the galaxy.

The excellence and maturity of the so-called 'jump' technology is even more unknown.

But no matter what, the so-called 'jump' sounds pretty good, at least it is much better than the subspace engine and navigation technology.

But even if it were true, it would not be easy for Terra to obtain or master that kind of technology.

After all, Terra's technology for producing various types of machinery is now close to being lost. The Mechanicus can only use STC to copy the products that have been designed and templated in ancient times. Another important task of the Mechanicus is to spread the technology throughout the empire.

Discover STC within the territory.

So, what was originally good science turned into archeology?

He took high-pressure measures against independent scientific and technological research carried out by the private sector, and strictly prohibited people outside the Mechanicum from conducting scientific experiments without authorization. All science and technology relied on archeology, and scientific and technological research became archaeology. He himself did not know such ridiculous things.

How should I comment?

To be honest, if he hadn't really needed the power of the Technological God Cult of Mars and the various war machines and warships provided by the other party, I'm afraid he would have already kicked off those god sticks who only regard machines as religions to worship and believe in.

They were kicked away!

Nowadays, human technology has regressed by at least ten thousand years, and the technology and inheritance of the golden age of mankind have been almost completely cut off. Just thinking about that terrible fact can make him feel extremely sad and sighing.

Think back to the beginning...

He also remembered that in the golden age, humans had various advanced basic civilian technologies. The Titan mecha was actually originally designed to carry out colonial construction work, including but not limited to bulldozing, logging, mining, etc., and was sometimes used

Used to rid colonies of certain pests and indigenous organisms.

As for the Tactical Dreadnought Armor, which is currently the Terminator Armor that is said to be the most defensive among the Astartes, it is only used as a protective suit for firefighting and diving.

But now?

The civilian cranes and ordinary equipment used by firefighters and divers for agricultural production in the golden age of mankind have actually become the main equipment or even the most powerful equipment of the Astartes Space Marines under his command, which makes him feel a little ashamed.

In addition, he also remembered that humans at that time also had a panacea that could cure any known disease and the technology to mechanize and resurrect the dead. Moreover, the resurrected dead had memories of their lifetimes. It would not be an exaggeration to say that they were mechanically ascending.

.

Naturally, he would never advocate that kind of machinery.

Because the golden age of mankind was ended by those terrible omnics. If anyone dares to touch those things now, he will destroy them, and he will show no mercy or tolerance!

After all, mankind really cannot withstand a second omnic rebellion. If it happens again, the human species will basically be declared completely extinct, and that is no joke.

In the golden age of mankind, in addition to possessing the above-mentioned agricultural and civilian machinery and equipment that have been preserved and developed today, there were actually a large number of basic military units.

For example: Iron Man is controlled by artificial intelligence and has the combat power of Space Marines and the number of Imperial Guardsmen; it has nano-robot weapons that are small enough to enter human blood vessels, can be copied infinitely, and are large enough to cover the entire planet; they have powerful combat power, immunity

Plasma melt and detonation weapons, the single combat effectiveness is estimated to be much stronger than the security droids of the Astartes Space Marines, etc.

Not to mention the Standardized Production Template (STC) technology. They are widely used in all human colonies and all walks of life, storing all the technologies of human civilization to prevent colonial technologies from being lost.

And that's exactly what happened.

Because nowadays, whether it is the Mechanicus or Terra, they basically rely on archeology and excavation of the STC to survive. Without the STC, the Astartes under his command will probably not have advanced power armor.

, the Adeptus Mechanicus will no longer have Titan mechas to use, and even battleships may be reduced to the point where they cannot be produced?

Because, 'STC' is a highly intelligent system that can work out the most reasonable construction plan for users based on the colony's own conditions. It is a mature and standardized technology that does not require the brain or the eyes at all!
