Although from the perspective of the prophet, the absolute protagonist of Warhammer 40K is a Space Marine, but in reality, anyone has to admit that the era of interstellar colonization is an era of large navies.

The role played by the starship is impossible for anyone to ignore. Even the stubborn Space Marines who have repeatedly stolen the spotlight with their great feats have to admit that if they can't win the spaceship battle, most of them will be abused, and the scene is very sad.

Kane recognized the role of starships early on, but he didn't particularly value starmarines. So the tone of the production of the First Order perfectly reflects his attitude.

Once, I chatted with Louvansberg, and Luwansberg also asked this question in detail, saying: "Men have dreams of guns, mechas, ships, etc. since childhood, and it seems that you are more fond of ships and are very interested in being a commander." ”

Kane said: "Being a commander is mainly because of the habit that has been cultivated over the years. I can't talk about liking ships, I attach great importance to it, but because of the lack of romantic feelings, after rational analysis, I grasp the darling of the times. ”

Kane considered himself a relatively serious and somewhat boring man, and he was completely indifferent to Don Quixote's style, and even hated the witty attitude towards difficult problems.

Therefore, the Warhammer 40K universe, for Kane, has a little bit of a beautiful woman throwing her eyes to the blind.

After all, the biggest selling point of this universe is the interstellar version of the romance of knights.

But it is precisely because Kane is not involved in this universe, and the mainstream style of this era is to play with hundreds of millions of turrets, billions of glory, and the set of red alert apocalypse tank sea, so that whether it is the Gothic war zone or the Gradius war zone, the war is in a stalemate situation, rather than being swept by the chaos side.

When Kane met Louvansberg again, Luvansberg was discussing military affairs in this area with his generals and captains.

For the Imperial Navy of Mankind, the general and the captain are almost unequivocally corresponding.

Rear Admiral, often the captain of a heavy destroyer.

The vice admiral was the captain of the cruiser.

The captain of a battleship was rarely an officer with the rank of admiral or below.

Therefore, the scene Kane saw can be described as a gathering of stars.

Knowing that it was Kane who came, Louvansberger did not follow the relevant regulations of the Navy to suspend and reschedule the military meeting, but directly led the crowd to greet him.

The big fleet, with its own pomp, even if it is urgently arranged, is enough to make ordinary people dazzled and fascinated, and give birth to the feeling of 'the big husband should be like this'.

Kane naturally had no sense of the scene itself, but he understood the attitude expressed by the other party through the scene.

To say that he and Louvansberger were friends at one time, at least on the surface, they looked alike.

But as he continued to show his strength and his social status soared, it became more and more inappropriate to be friends.

There is a folk saying that roughly means, 'I have a fancy for your people, not your money,' and so on, to express the equal interaction of people from different classes.

However, he, a person who had been repeatedly beaten by society when he was penniless in his previous life, no longer believed in this.

This is also one of the reasons why he himself feels that his character is a little boring. It is too realistic, and automatically picks up the argument of 'door-to-door' that is denounced by the contemporary media as 'feudal remnants of thought and traditional dross', and takes it as a guideline.

Then, in the long career, the correctness of this statement has been verified again and again.

If there is inequality in strength, there will be inequality in status.

The status is not equal, and what kind of equality intersects.

If you can't fellowship as equals, you can't be friends.

The change in his relationship with Louvansberg is a typical argument.

At the beginning, it was Luwansberg who had a bit of a 'bowing and handing over', because at that time he was acting like a god stick, and his strength had not yet been shown.

And after he initially showed his strength, the two could still barely be friends.

After all, it was because he was powerful, but he had not yet attained a matching social status, and Louvansberg was the Governor of the Sector Fleet, who was universally feared by the world.

And that's when he shows his main and only personal strength, and the team strength is in production.

He analyzed that although Luwansberg also knew that from the overall situation of civilization and in the long run, productivity was more important than destructive power, but at that time he was quite unreasonable, and he was still able to do his own ideological work and get along with him with an equal mentality.

What's more, in the interaction between the two sides at that time, the characteristics of mutual benefit were very distinct.

And then it won't be.

Now it is even more impossible, not because the First Order has proved its strength to all races on the battlefield of Gradius.

For those who have a good mentality and a strong will, it is possible to do something like 'no matter how rich you are, it is only your business, and I don't ask for you, I don't owe you, why should I lower you'.

Louvansberger was one such person.

What really made Luwansberg unable to be friends was the premise of 'not asking for or owing' to intersect with the high-ranking people on an equal footing, which was broken by Luwansberg himself......

Feeling the cold of the heights again, he said he was used to it.

Louvansberger took out the set of sincere fear and greeting the big guy, and he also cooperated quite well, and the friendship between the two did not need to be mentioned again.

Then there was the opening of the military council, which Kane attended.

Then, through this military meeting, Kane discovered many things that he couldn't help but sigh about.

For example, the building of the fortress of Antioch. This is considered a military industry, which was set up by Louvansberg in the name of the Gothic fleet, and is now also part of the logistics foundation of the fleet.

However, when the Gothic War was in full swing, most of the ships built in the fortress of Antioch were to supply the Imperial Navy outside the Gothic Star Sector.

From a certain point of view, the official authorities of the empire not only did not support, but also pulled the hind legs of the Gothic Star Zone!

Another example is the Stargate Passage.

Because the original intention of the stargate was to ensure that in the case of a subspace storm, it would leave a way back for the humans in the Gothic Star Sector.

Therefore, a high-power energy force field device is specially prepared to counter energy with energy, so as to protect the normal use of the stargate.

But now, this stargate basically does not benefit the humans in the Gothic Star Sector, but is used to 'exchange materials for warships'.

The materials for building ships that are in short supply due to the war in the resource mining areas are coming, and the finished or semi-finished products of the finished starships are gone.

Semi-finished starship, this is a new business started by Antioch Shipbuilding in the years when Kane was away. The main reason is that the people in the ship industry of the empire generally recognize the advantages of a one-piece keel and a one-piece hull.

And this kind of integrated construction process, in addition to the First Order, is also built by Antioch shipbuilding, and Mars, the headquarters of the Mechanicus Cult, although it can also be manufactured due to the acquisition of relevant shipbuilding equipment, but after all, it is granted in the name of research, and the scale is not large.

All in all, the needs of the upper echelons of the empire had to be met unconditionally, and even the strategy and tactics of fighting the Abaddon Expeditionary Force had to be adjusted accordingly, giving priority to the safety of production.

Kane laughed at this, "Well, it's very imperial. ”

In other words, before getting in touch with the dark HP universe, he laughed and laughed, and shot and shot, this kind of behavior of pulling back his legs, he probably couldn't bear it.

But now, there is less of a sense of urgency to fight for his uncertain future.

At the same time, he also understood why Luvansberger saw him this time, and it became more and more obvious that he put himself in an inferior position.

It's like someone who has an inconsiderate wife who doesn't understand her son, and it is not easy for her son to make money, but she tries to pick up the money, so her son can only take advantage of outside partners.

The feeling of indebtedness, yes, is this emotion.

The Gothic Sector is now heavily dependent on the First Order, and is already indebted to a lot.

During the military council, Louvansberg kept an eye on Kane's expression.

Kane has sprayed when he is unhappy before, and the imperial bigwigs have also made a good record, but this time Louvansberg actually let it go, and was mentally prepared to be scolded by Kane in public.

Kane has no attitude, and Louvansberg is a different kind of discomfort.

However, his daily work is to face all kinds of difficulties, and a considerable number of them do not see any hope of solution. This has exercised his face to a certain extent.

So the meeting continued as usual on the surface.

In addition to auditing, Kane also learned about the situation through Miranda.

If we talk about the great progress made by the First Order in the past few years that Kane has gone, the field of intelligence exploration is undoubtedly one worth mentioning.

Following the group of exploration ships that were originally manufactured in the Big Dipper due to exploration needs and later mothballed to explore the physical universe of Warhammer 40K, the First Order has sent thirty waves of exploration ships under Miranda's management.

These exploration vessels are broadly divided into three types.

One is a non-jumping direct ship. This type of ship uses near-light speed propulsion equipment and appears to be the largest. Their main manifestation is that they spend most of their time on the road.

There is also a stellar gravitational coordinate jump ship. The ships are like checkers, jumping from star to star, and each place they come to is mapped in more detail.

The last type is the hyperspace jump ship. This type of ship has the highest technical content, and the jumping conditions are extremely demanding, and it must have detailed mapping data before it can start to operate.

They are characterized by repeated jumps back and forth.

Through this operation, the data is accumulated and compared horizontally, so as to specify the star map route. Pave the way for the construction of the Stargate.

What Kane means by this is that the First Order does not necessarily have to be like the ancient saint's network, and it has to engage in a cosmic-level highway network project, but no matter where it wants to go, it must have the ability to quickly deploy it, and if you want to achieve this goal, you have to map the whole universe.

With the investment in the mapping of the whole universe and the feedback obtained more and more abundantly, the First Order has gradually invested its eyes from a corner of the galaxy to the infinite universe.

Miranda has followed Kane to participate in major projects in the whole universe, and Zhao Wenrui's information heritage has also broadened her horizons, so to speak, Miranda also has a creator-level open vision.

Therefore, when Kane was absent and let her take care of the affairs, Miranda quickly established a cosmic pattern.

She has many differences from Kane, one of the more obvious is that Kane has human nature, and he is always consciously or unconsciously affected, especially when he goes to the new world, when there are human beings approved by Kane, he is easy to be involved in things involving human beings, and he is unable to act from the perspective of the whole universe.

Miranda doesn't, for Miranda, the little related to the Warhammer 40K Universe Galaxy Human Empire is just a few more details worth remembering.

And the reason why it is worth remembering more is mainly because they are 'just red', which is like looking at the symptoms of 'fire' from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, some people show inflammation of the tonsils, some are blistered mouth and tongue, and now the Milky Way is the inflamed tonsils or blistered mouth and tongue.

Although Kane also knew that the cure was divided into symptoms and cured the root cause, so he would advance Gradius's Creator project. But after all, he is more concerned about the symptoms, hoping to remove the blisters and dissolve the inflammation.

Miranda is more hard-hearted, swollen, swollen, festering, rotten, can't die, just suffer a little sin.

As a result of this attitude, a considerable part of the productivity of the Big Dipper has turned to serve the Celestial Domain Project.

So Kane came back this time and received good news including the discovery of 37 million high-quality collection areas, and the fact that First Order has begun to start breeding programs on 600,000 of them.

The so-called egg breeding plan is actually self-replication, self-proliferation, and then building a hive.

The hive is hierarchical, with Level 1 being within a planet, Level 2 being within a star, Level 3 being within a galaxy, Level 4 being within a star cluster, and Level 5 being cosmic.

This is also a big reason why Kane can tolerate the bad things that happened in the Gothic Star Zone. After all, even if this side loses, it is far from being able to make the First Order break its muscles and bones, and the 600,000 potential projects are underway, even if only 30% of them bear fruit in the end, it is enough for the First Order to achieve the prestige of a cosmic-level force.

But the message that Kane is listening to now is not how profitable those investments are, and the prospects are promising. It's the reason why the empire has to draw blood from the Gothic star zone at such a time.

More specifically, he wanted to know the specific fate of the finished or semi-finished warships that had been exported from the Gothic Star Zone in recent years.

While looking at the overall situation, Miranda did not give up the current situation, and the Milky Way galaxy was also explored and mapped.

But it's a different system.

It is in accordance with the style and mode of action of the original search and reconnaissance motherships, the Victoria, Elizabeth and Margaret, that a total of 120 groups, a total of 360 search and reconnaissance motherships, three as a group, to carry out search and reconnaissance.

Its mode of action is more nuanced, including the creation and dispatch of spies.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that today's First Order is more deaf and clear-sighted than the officials of the empire who have worked hard for many years.

When Kane heard from Miranda that a large number of finished ships had been reequipped for the fleet of the Terra Defense Circle, he let out a 'huh'.

It is human nature to give priority to self-protection. If this is done to give the bigwigs of the empire a sense of security, and the backbone will be slightly improved, so that they will not be frightened by chaos and immediately betray the interests of the race, then Kane is not prepared to care about this matter.

However, when he heard that there were still some ships, especially semi-finished products, after three turns and five turns, they went to the Dark Mechanics Cult to contribute to the great cause of Chaos Conquest, although they were still earthlings, he knew that this was not an uncommon thing, otherwise there would be no such saying that 'an arms dealer who can't sell weapons on both sides is not a good arms dealer'. But I still can't help but feel resentful.

He thought for a moment and instructed Miranda: "Gather the information, including the information that can be used as evidence, send a copy to the top chief of the department involved, and tell them by the way that if the Empire supports the anti-demon war in the Gothic Star Sector in this way, then the First Order does not mind sending all the people involved and their relatives to the gallows." ”
