I cultivate mushrooms in warhammer
#168 - First day as the mastermind
Today is destined to be an extraordinary day.
Currently, there are five types of fungi in the fungal warehouse. They are:
Archaic Venom Fungus: Separates toxic and non-toxic substances, producing highly poisonous compounds and edible starch;
Archaic Fuel Fungus: Feeds on promethium ore, producing ork fuel with a calorific value of 80 terajoules/kilogram and promethium refining residue;
Archaic Hydrogen-Oxygen Fungus: Decomposes water, producing hydrogen and oxygen, but with lower efficiency and unit output than electrolysis;
Archaic Antioxidant Fungus: Produces antioxidant enzymes in oxygen-rich environments;
Archaic Crystallization Fungus: 60% reversion rate, possesses two metabolic modes, can directly absorb warp energy to produce single crystals, or convert spirit bones into single crystals.
Following the formula "Alkylation Agent + Antioxidant Enzyme = Archaic Fungal Reversion Inducer", Leeno sequentially conducts mutation experiments on the other four types of archaic fungi.
The Archaic Antioxidant Fungus did not revert, which is reasonable. Otherwise, the antioxidant enzymes it produces would have triggered its reversion long ago.
The Archaic Hydrogen-Oxygen Fungus did not revert either, which is also reasonable. This fungus and the Archaic Antioxidant Fungus are in the same Squig, so if it could revert under the induction of antioxidant enzymes, it would have reverted long ago.
The Archaic Fuel Fungus showed signs of reversion!
The reversion rate reached 60%!
The calorific value of the ork fuel it produces reached 160 terajoules per kilogram, doubling the calorific value, which can be said to be a qualitative change.
The Archaic Venom Fungus also underwent a qualitative change, with a reversion rate of 60%.
After reversion, the carbon elements in the toxic substances were further separated, and the proportion of edible starch in the product increased.
Leeno quickly calculated that using 60% reverted Archaic Venom Fungus to prepare synthetic starch would improve efficiency by exactly one time compared to the past.
What is the concept of this?
Simply put, it means that the production capacity of the synthetic starch industry has doubled.
At the end of this year, the original planned production target was 90 million tons of synthetic starch per month.
Now, this value has increased by 100%, reaching 180 million tons.
Leeno was stunned. After carefully checking several times, he confirmed that he had not miscalculated.
How is the extra synthetic starch produced?
Is the system creating something from nothing?
No, it's not creating something from nothing.
In the original preparation process, 10 kilograms of residue were converted into 2 kilograms of synthetic starch, 1 kilogram of highly toxic concentrate, and 7 kilograms of by-products.
The by-products are mainly carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, and water.
When using 60% Archaic Venom Fungus to process residue, the extra synthetic starch comes from the by-products.
The 7 kilograms of by-products become 5 kilograms, and the missing 2 kilograms become synthetic starch.
In the end, the same 10 kilograms of residue yields 4 kilograms of synthetic starch, 1 kilogram of highly toxic concentrate, and 5 kilograms of by-products.
This is the reason why the production of synthetic starch has directly doubled.
"Holy crap... I'm rich... I'm really rich this time..."
Leeno was so excited in the shack that he couldn't contain himself, his body trembling uncontrollably with his back to the door.
Zalger at the door looked confused. Although he didn't understand what the Witch Doctor was doing, he felt it was very impressive.
Creak, creak, metal soles stepped on the grass, bending the green grass stalks. A figure ran over from the distant tarmac.
The person who came was Beast.
His current height is close to two and a half meters, and the thickness of his body reaches one meter. His barrel-like waist and thick arms contain amazing explosive power. The polished metal armor made Zalger's eyes straighten with envy.
"Witch Doctor?" Beast stopped in front of the door and looked curiously into the room, only seeing a back figure shaking his body with his back to the door. "What is he doing?"
"I don't know either." Zalger scratched his head. "I only heard words like 'I'm rich,' 'Am I dreaming?' 'This is so cool.' Maybe the great Witch Doctor has some awesome new ideas."
"Cough cough."
Leeno heard the movement at the door, put the fungus in his hand into the fungal warehouse, wiped his mouth, and turned around:
"What's wrong, Beast? Is there anything urgent?"
Beast exchanged glances with the Witch Doctor, confirming that the one occupying the Witch Doctor's body was his own boss, and immediately grinned and said:
"Boss, I have good news. Pompa that kid has discovered the territory of the R'Dan Alliance."
"Oh, really?" Leeno's expression straightened, and he picked up his staff and walked towards the door. "Let's go, let's go take a look. How far is the R'Dan Alliance from us?"
"About five thousand light-years."
Five thousand light-years is neither far nor near.
Within the light range of the Astronomican, five thousand light-years can be traveled in as little as two months.
But outside the Milky Way, there is no Astronomican, and the light of the Astronomican cannot be seen. How long it will take for the R'Dan Alliance to reach the Milky Way depends on whether their faster-than-light navigation technology is reliable.
If interstellar navigation technology has not been innovated in so many years, the R'Dan Alliance's faster-than-light navigation method should still be "warp jump plus triangulation".
This interstellar navigation technology is suitable for the star field without the guidance of the Astronomican.
In simple terms, it is like this:
After each warp navigation of no more than 100 light-years, the ship enters real space, and calculates the coordinate information of the "starting point", "ending point" and "destination" to confirm whether it has deviated from the course.
When Rogue Traders encounter the disappearance of Astronomican light in the expansion zone, they use this navigation method.
Theoretically, the R'Dan Alliance can return to the Milky Way by performing 50 short jumps and triangulation continuously.
But this is in theory.
In practice, the R'Dan Alliance fleet will most likely be lost in the warp.
The location where they appear may be severely deviated from the course, and the time when they appear may be a year later, a year earlier, or even ten years later, or ten years earlier than the departure time.
After all, the flow of time in the warp is not linear. It is not impossible to travel back to the past or to the more distant future through warp navigation.
It is said that an Ork Warboss once traveled to the past and met himself a few minutes ago.
Both "Warbosses" were holding their favorite weapons.
So, in order to have two of their favorite weapons at the same time, they fought to the death.
This simple little example is enough to show how wonderful the warp is.
Leeno took the Grot Transporter to the Steel Ingot and stepped onto the bridge.
Pompa was soaking in the amniotic tank, and grinned when he saw the Witch Doctor:
"Great Witch Doctor, I'm sure that's the territory of the Worm People. Look, this is the dot picture I drew."
Worm People is a general term for the R'Dan, named because the main members of the R'Dan Alliance are worm-like lifeforms.
The physiological structure of this lifeform is very peculiar.
Thousands of worms gathered together can form a humanoid creature.
When scattered, they crawl around like cockroaches, and they are not stupid, knowing how to hide themselves and avoid the pursuit of enemies.
They transmit information by exchanging body fluids.
Body fluids contain substances such as pheromones, neurotransmitters, hormones, and stimulants.
This method of information transmission is a bit slow, but it has high fidelity, easy storage, and extremely high confidentiality.
When the three Space Marine Chapters dealt with the R'Dan Alliance, they spent a lot of effort in deciphering the pheromones and nerve signals of the Worm People.
Back to the main topic.
The dot picture projects a holographic screen into mid-air. A planet that has been transformed into a steel jungle emerges in front of you. Three asteroids surround the planet.
The asteroids have obvious signs of modification, with surface-to-air heavy cannons and orbital space stations orbiting the planet.
The planet surrounded by asteroids looks a bit grim at first glance.
It is connected to the asteroids by three thick space corridors. The surface of the planet is covered with dense steel buildings, like a huge computer matrix, or the forge cities of the Adeptus Mechanicus.
Obviously, after leaving the Milky Way, the R'Dan Alliance discovered a planet with abundant mineral deposits.
This situation is equivalent to winning the lottery, and it is a jackpot.
Why do you say that?
Because the distribution density of celestial bodies outside the Milky Way is much lower than that within the Milky Way.
In the Milky Way, there are an average of 1.3 stars in a 1x1x1 light-year cubic space, as well as some non-luminous celestial bodies.
But outside the Milky Way, the density of celestial bodies decreases sharply, probably only 20% of that in the Milky Way.
This is why the Imperium of Man and the Eldar stay in the Milky Way.
"Pompa, sense how many lifeforms are on the planet."
"Okay, let me see..." Bubbles emerged from Pompa's amniotic tank, with gurgling sounds rising and falling.
After about half a minute, Pompa said:
"Big guy, I feel like there are hundreds of billions."
"Hundreds of billions? Are you sure?" Leeno raised an eyebrow.
“Glug, glug.” The liquid inside the amniotic fluid tank churned. Pompa nodded. “Yes, yes, there are indeed trillions.”
Lino asked:
“What is their method of interstellar travel?”
“It's 'Jump-Jump,' I'm sure it's 'Jump-Jump.'”
“Jump-Jump” is short for short-range jumps and triangulation.
“However, I feel that their method of interstellar travel has changed recently.” Pompa released a string of bubbles, thoughtfully saying:
“The Worm People's 'Jump-Jump' is becoming more and more precise. I think someone is guiding them.”
“Guiding…” Lino fell into thought, slowly pacing around the dot matrix display.
There are two main approaches to guiding someone in the Warp.
One is to establish a stable Warp beacon, such as the Astronomican.
The other is to ask for help from Warp daemons, which involves cruel sacrificial rituals.
The area where the R'ndan Alliance is located doesn't have the light of the Astronomican, so the so-called guiding should be sacrificial.
Does this mean that the R'ndan Alliance has also turned to Chaos?
Lino thought about it and didn't deny this speculation.
During the Great Crusade, many alien civilizations were driven to the brink by the Imperium of Man and ultimately turned to the Chaos Gods; the R'ndan Alliance wouldn't be the only one.
Right now, he had to think of a way to divert the R'ndan Alliance's attention and create more development time for the Ork planet.
Lino stopped walking, an idea forming in his mind.
“Pompa, open the star chart of the Midlark Expanse.”
“Okay.”
The holographic screen of the dot matrix display transformed into an extremely vast planar map.
The planar map of the expanse was 30,000 light-years long and 3,000 light-years wide, from the northern part of the Pacific Star Domain on the left to the northwestern corner of the Far East Star Domain.
The area where the Imperium of Man fought against the R'ndan Alliance was located within the Misty Star Domain south of the Midlark Expanse.
The specific location was the Morse Sector in the northeastern corner of the Misty Star Domain.
This sector originally had eight sub-sectors ruled by the R'ndan Alliance, but they have now been purged and transformed into Imperial worlds.
The main Imperial armed forces in the Morse Sector are the Imperial Guard, the 51st Chapter of the Dark Angels Legion - the Obsidian Gryphons, and the Claw Brethren, who are heavily protected by the Obsidian Gryphons.
The most crucial of these is the Claw Brethren.
This Chapter was established specifically for the R'ndan Alliance, with the aim of guarding the R'ndan ruins and preventing the R'ndan Alliance from reviving and counterattacking.
Currently, the Claw Brethren have not received any news of the R'ndan Alliance gathering outside the galaxy.
Lino's idea was to guide the Claw Brethren to discover the Oneye's planet.
This way, with the Claw Brethren taking the brunt, the pressure on his side would be much less.
As for whether the Claw Brethren would discover the Ork planet.
Honestly, Lino wasn't too worried.
The Imperium of Man's tech tree was skewed. They didn't deeply research deep-space remote sensing technology, relying entirely on Rogue Traders and Expedition Fleets to explore using "their faces."
There were only two places with potential risks.
One was that the Oneye might have the spatial coordinates of Palu.
The other was that the archives of the Night Lords and Space Wolves contained information from hundreds of years ago about the two Legions coming to exterminate the Bone Drinkers, which should include the spatial coordinates of Palu.
Lino pondered that he'd better find a chance to sneak into the Oneye's star system and erase the coordinates of Palu.
As for the information in the Space Marine archives, he'd just have to let it be.
Palu was too far away for the Imperium of Man.
If it hadn't been for chasing the Bone Drinkers, the Space Marine Legions wouldn't have come here.
Lino asked:
“Pompa, how far is the Greenskin's star system from the Morse Sector?”
After observing for a few minutes, Pompa replied:
“Boss, the straight-line distance between these two places is 5,500 light-years.”
Lino looked at the Beast thoughtfully:
“Are there any remnants of the Greenskin's derelict ships left?”
“Yes, there is a derelict light cruiser that hasn't been dismantled yet. It has a navigation computer, a Warp engine, a Warp navigation field generator, and a Greenskin reactor.”
“Good, don't dismantle this ship for now. You fix the ship for me, as long as it can fly. Also, you select a batch of Kommando Boyz who know how to pilot ships for me. I want to officially form a clan composed entirely of Kommando Boyz.”
“Wow, a clan made up entirely of Kommando Boyz?” The Beast took out his notebook, scribbling down what the boss said, and asked in amazement:
“Boss, what's this clan for?”
Lino supported himself with the Weirdboy staff in one hand and put the other hand behind his back, saying meaningfully:
“The mission of this clan is infiltration, penetration, reconnaissance, assassination, and theft, not direct combat. Their numbers are not large, but each of them is good at sneaking, lock-picking, and petty theft. When necessary, they can launch a deadly sneak attack on the enemy's leaders and strategic strongholds.”
The Beast's eyes lit up slightly:
“Sounds awesome. What's the name of such a powerful clan?”
“Call it Alpha… um, no, that's not right.” Lino originally wanted to name it the Alpha Clan, but when he thought of Jersey's prophecy obtained through the Akashic reader, he felt a little awkward.
After thinking about it, a brilliant idea came to mind.
“Um, I have an idea. Since this clan, composed entirely of Kommando Boyz, is very good at infiltration, assassination, and theft, let's call it the Blood Raven Clan.”
“Blood Raven Clan! All Kommando Boyz, I just think it's so cool, Waaagh!”
The Beast didn't know what scene he was imagining, and welcomed a cerebral climax.
Lino asked Zarg to move himself onto his shoulders, tapped the Beast's head with the staff to get his attention, and used the Noise Marine to summon Ayron to the bridge.
After Ayron arrived, Lino and the others at the scene discussed a plan.
Rebuilding the derelict ship that hadn't been dismantled yet would be a waste of time. It would take at least two months to make it capable of cruising and Warp travel.
After thinking about it, Lino simply decided to modify the derelict ship into a barge.
A barge generally refers to a ship without its own power, which can only be towed by other ships.
Lino arranged for a frigate to tow the barge for Warp travel.
The style of both the frigate and the barge would adopt the style of the Oneye's ships.
These two ships would form a temporary fleet.
The fleet would depart from Palu, first go to the Oneye's star system, accurately record the spatial coordinates there, and enter them into the barge's navigation log.
Then, the fleet would erase the location of Palu from the navigation log and tow the barge to the Morse Sector.
This step was the most dangerous.
The frigate had to throw the barge in the face of the Claw Brethren, then immediately detach from the barge and bypass the Warp outside the light of the Astronomican to return to the Ork planet.
The alien civilization's barge staying in the Claw Brethren's territory would inevitably lead to in-depth research by the local Adeptus Mechanicus.
With such research, wouldn't the Oneye's star system come to the surface?
As long as the Imperial Guard and the Claw Brethren inquired a little, the news of the R'ndan Alliance's return would naturally enter the Imperium of Man's field of vision.
Here, it is necessary to mention a special feature in the interstellar background.
During ground warfare, it is extremely difficult to directly enter the heartland of a country from the outside.
But in an interstellar background, there is no technology to intercept Warp travel halfway.
Theoretically speaking, the Greenskins could even travel from Palu to Terra in one breath and directly jump into the Imperium of Man's face and go all out.
To ensure that the barge could be 100% captured by the Claw Brethren, Lino planned to use the governor's authority to query the star chart of the Morse Sector in the public database.
At this point, the plan to use wolves to devour tigers was basically determined.
Lino called the Beast over and arranged for the modification of the frigate and the barge:
“. Beast, calculate the time. How long will it take to transform a frigate and a derelict ship into ships in the style of the Oneye?”
The Beast rubbed his chin, his eyes flashing, quickly calculating:
“I think it will take about a month. The main reason is that the style of the Oneye's ships is more difficult to imitate. The Techboyz have to study the historical images more to build it well. If we stop a shaft and move the Boyz to shipbuilding, it should be ready in half a month.”
Stopping the shaft to build ships… Lino paced a few steps, shaking his head slightly:
“The shaft cannot be stopped. This is our foundation on this planet. Let's go with the two-month construction period. If you lack manpower, you can ask my body for 'Growth Spirit' and get more Boyz and Gretchin to work.”
“Okay, leave it to me.” The Beast wrote down Lino's words in his notebook.
