The Emperor’s Angel of Death

#2965 - The tricky UR025

Humans find it difficult to crack Aida's storage devices, but Aida is very familiar with human storage devices (which is quite strange, as Black Bean Sprout could directly use the STC after snatching it). Another Custodian brought over a container like a small fish tank, filled with a translucent suspension fluid. Soshoyn directly put the metal sheet into it.

Seconds later, the container emitted a faint glow, and the stored content appeared in mid-air as a psychic projection.

"This is... Hmm? An air purification tower?"

The first thing Soshoyn saw was a large device over a hundred meters tall, but as he carefully read the description, his brow gradually relaxed.

According to the description, this device could very efficiently analyze the composition of the air, filter out harmful substances, and then rapidly synthesize and decompose substances internally, before spraying them out with a nanometer-scale atomizer. It was clearly designed to combat the Tyranid spore clouds.

This book is first published on the entire network by 𝚝𝕨𝕜𝕒𝕟.𝕔𝕠𝕞

"This device was originally supposed to release purifying nanites, with efficiency calculated in seconds, and a few of them could cover an entire planet."

"Oh? Nanites, I seem to have heard of something similar. It sounds like it's more like a weapon?"

"No, it was initially just an environmental modification device, which evolved into medical equipment used to eliminate all viruses on a planet. However, with current human processing technology, we can't process such precise things, and material technology has been lost too much. What humanity has lost is not just technology. Even if they are given the technological blueprints with substandard craftsmanship, what can they do? They can't even solve the continuous heat dissipation of laser energy. This is definitely not a technological problem."

"Alright, I'm not here to listen to you show off your seniority. Just talk about the thing itself, and don't ramble."

After telling UR-025 to shut up, Soshoyn looked at the thing.

"So, these are all you've selected, which are relatively easy to manufacture, right?"

"Relatively speaking."

"Okay, this one is quite useful. Tyranid spore clouds are a very troublesome thing. This thing's principle is... Wait, what is a high-level logic processor? Don't tell me it's"

"Without a high-level computing and analysis core, there is no way to quickly calculate the changing substances in the air."

Soshoyn rubbed his forehead.

"Argh, do you really not understand or are you pretending not to understand?"

"I'm just following your instructions."

Seeing Soshoyn's helpless expression, Veronica couldn't help but giggle and said:

"Isn't this what the Imperium calls an Abominable Intelligence? If it's publicly displayed, wouldn't the Inquisition go crazy?"

Soshoyn didn't say anything, just patiently looked at the next one.

"Weapons? Micro-missiles? Seems nothing special... Hmm? The weight is actually... 1kg? The length is 40cm, so light? Is it lethal... Ah? Thermonuclear warhead? Can it be made so small? The range is three thousand meters..."

This weapon immediately attracted Soshoyn's attention. After carefully reading it again, his brow relaxed.

"This is good, this is good. A launch pack plus 10 missiles is only 30kg in weight, which is almost weightless for an Astartes. It can be externally connected to the power armor backpack without affecting tactical movements. The cold launch method is also safer. The missile only has a simple artificial intelligence for target locking and tracking, so it won't touch the red line. It's useful for dealing with both enemy air and ground targets."

Then he looked at UR-025.

"Is its manufacturing process complicated?"

"It's not complicated. It's a very simple weapon in principle. The difficulty lies in the fact that many parts are relatively precise, almost all of which are micron-level component standards. It is a bit difficult to automate production with the current human technology level, after all, the idea of weapon miniaturization seems to have been abandoned. So, you can only let those Tech-Priests process micro-precision parts manually. The output depends on how many qualified Tech-Priests you have. In addition, there are many ways to lock onto the target. I remember that the Astartes' power armor actually has a certain amount of information technology. You can try connecting it to the power armor's vision system to form a tactical network. Any unit in the network can lock onto the target and guide the missiles fired by others to accurately attack. After all, it uses a relatively low-level fire control intelligence, and it is possible to be interfered with or miss the target. This would make the launch efficiency much higher."

Soshoyn nodded and leaned forward slightly.

"So you actually understand everything, right? So you first gave me something that couldn't be applied, and then gave me something that was barely usable, so I couldn't blame you."

"No, you misunderstand."

"Ha, I don't misunderstand you. On the contrary, I understand you more and more. You are indeed very different from other Iron Men. You are too personified. Forget it, consider this your passing grade."

Soshoyn looked behind him. After a moment, he silently stood up, walked step by step towards UR-025, and came to its side. He bent down and whispered:

"The Omnissiah's Holy Book, containing 30,000 years of human wisdom, please tell me, how am I supposed to build this giant black hole cannon that is over three hundred kilometers long?"

"The detailed structure and required materials are on it."

"Oh, it seems I'm not smart enough. So, with the power of this shot affecting half a sector, where do you want me to fire it?"

"Wherever the Tyranids are, fire there."

"I would like to ask your clever little brain, which is full of countless knowledge, another question."

Soshoyn reached out and gently flicked the other party's smooth, round head.

"If it is a Forge World, how long will it take to build such a thing?"

"First of all, I don't think with my head. Secondly, there are large differences in productivity between different Forge Worlds. To estimate..."

"What? Say it, I won't blame you."

"Probably... 1000-20000 years."

"Oh, so you've considered sixty millennia into the future. You're really far-sighted, as expected of the ultimate crystallization of human wisdom. But I have a question. The Tyranids are right in front of us, under our noses. Can I use this weapon plan to scare them to death?"

". . ."

"Because I know Master Ananda, so you think I won't do anything to you, that's why you're so bold, right?"

Perhaps sensing that Soshoyn's anger was rising, UR-025 quickly explained:

"This is indeed the fastest and most efficient weapon I can think of to eliminate the Tyranids. I have also repeatedly emphasized before that the Tyranids seem to be creatures without science and technology, but they themselves are the most cutting-edge science. From the perspective of material transformation and energy transformation, even the peak of humanity is not much stronger than them. Without taking out destructive weapons, even the former Mechanicum armies would find it difficult to defeat them quickly. Moreover, you don't know how big their real scale is, and I don't know either. We are all blind people touching a huge beast, and we only get partial information."
