Warhammer 40K in a box

Chapter 137 Planetary Protection Field
The space monkeys certainly didn't mind Olivia recording their technology. In fact, it was hard to say that these monkeys had any sense of technological confidentiality.

I think they are actually the same as the green-skinned group to a large extent. They will only remember what technology they have when they come into contact with it or need to use it.

And these monkeys, like the green-skinned tech gurus, are largely unable to understand the technology they are using; they just know they have to do it.

This is precisely the power and terror of the ancient saints. They wrote technology into DNA, and after billions of years of inheritance, it can still function normally.

In fact, the Empire also has applications of related technologies, such as the famous Astartes. Their gene seeds can pass on combat experience and even the memories of previous generations of Space Marines. To a large extent, it is also based on a similar principle, engraving information into DNA.

However, the Space Marines still cannot naturally inherit their genetic sequences as stably as the Space Monkeys and Greenskins, and artificial intervention is necessary.

(To correct a classic rumor, 'Astartes are all castrated'. This is pure rumor and bullshit. They have reproductive functions and there is no reproductive isolation between them and humans. Their offspring are ordinary humans, but the blood of Space Marines has contraceptive effects.)

It was precisely because of this that, even though Olivia had used all the means at her disposal during the months-long process of installing and modifying the force field generator, she still had no gains worth mentioning.

However, for the force field generator that the space monkeys had already modified, Olivia had developed some things that she claimed were quite inspiring.

Of course, a planetary-level force field generator is not that easy to make. Even though Olivia claims that she can make a planetary-level force field generator, she still starts with the installation of a city-level force field generator.

Olivia made a total of three sets of force field generators and installed them in three different locations in Rostov City. Each set had three generators, for a total of nine generators.

The level of protection a single generator can provide is roughly equivalent to the strength of a frigate's void shield. When three generators work together, the strength of the protective force field they create is equivalent to that of a cruiser, and is sufficient to cover the entire city of Rostov.

According to Olivia's design, as long as two of the nine generators are still working properly, the protective force field covering the urban area can still be maintained.

With each additional force field generator, the strength of the protective force field above the city will become higher.

Under normal circumstances, two of the three force field generators in each group will be turned on and working normally, and one will serve as a rotating backup.

When inspection and maintenance are required, it is only necessary to open the standby generator and the working generator can be shut down for maintenance.

It can be said that this system has absolute redundancy, and when all functions are turned on, it can withstand orbital bombardment for a long time, which is already quite powerful.

After the force field generators were installed, the space monkeys also modified these generators and upgraded them into monkey force fields.

While maintaining the original defensive effect, energy consumption is further reduced, and it has the effect of isolating subspace pollution.

Chen Xi was very satisfied with this city-level defense force field. After starting the test, he praised Olivia, "Excellent design! This system is better than most defense force fields I've seen. How did you manage to combine different force field generators without interfering with each other?"

Chen Xi's impression of force field generators was that they mostly operated independently. Even though the void shields on warships and Titans had multiple groups, they operated in a rotational mechanism. Multiple void shields could not be combined, but operated independently. When the void shields of two Titans overlapped, their immense energy would push against each other, causing a violent explosion of lightning and flames.

Therefore, void shields are usually arranged in layers like an onion, or a long string of void shields are set up separately.

"Force field harmonics, an ancient technology I discovered from the Forge World's data stack, can combine two different force fields through frequency modulation." Olivia appeared extremely proud and confident when she mentioned her work and technology, even a hint of smugness in her expression. "This is my exclusive technology. No one else in the entire empire can provide you with this combined force field."

Hearing this, Chen Xi, while complimenting Olivia, couldn't help but ask curiously: "Can this technology be applied to the void shield?

If it works, it might bring about changes to the empire, and I think your technological heresy review will be more likely to pass."

"The technology I found is used for ordinary protective force fields. As for the void shield..." Olivia hesitated for a moment before saying, "I need to study it before I can give you an answer."

Because Olivia was previously exiled as a technological heretic, she was unable to test this technology on the Void Shield.

However, there was no void shield for her to test on the Rostov II, making it impossible for her to verify the effectiveness of this technology on the void shield.

However, she was also very interested in this. As long as Chen Xi provided her with the Void Shield for research, she would not mind applying her own technology to the Void Shield.

"No rush, you can study it slowly. For the empire, this kind of thing will always be icing on the cake." Chen Xi was indeed not in a hurry, he just mentioned it casually.

However, after discussing this matter, Chen Xi looked a little hesitant, but after a little hesitation, he said: "Olivia, can you provide some basic knowledge about force field technology?

I hope to train some people on Rostov, who may become new cogs or skilled force field operators and maintainers.

After all, I can't always let the priests of the Mechanicus maintain everything, especially since your force field technology is so useful, we can definitely try to develop new products and equip the army."

Although Chen Xi's request was a little strange, Olivia nodded after considering it and said, "I will try to write some simple basic theory manuals. I will try to lower the reading threshold as much as possible. Anyone who has received an imperial standard education should be able to understand it.

Any lower would be inappropriate. After all, if someone hasn't even received an Imperial standard education, you can't expect them to maintain technical equipment."

"Okay, I understand." Chen Xi had no objection to this. After all, it was enough for an illiterate person to know how to kowtow.

But then he asked another question: "Are you interested in spreading the wisdom and faith of the God of All Machines on this planet?"
