Carium Gate Greatly Accelerates Warp Voyage

The Vostonian-born Rogue Trader, after receiving the Nimrod title, did not undertake high-risk explorations like Lewis von Valentius.

The stable Warp passage between Mordian and Cepra -Mondi is the result of this exploration.

The Third Legion departed from Mordian, and after occupying the very wealthy Khavos System, continued its advance towards Cepra Mundi.

The Second Legion joined the conquest after the Battle of the Coronid Abyss.

Starting from Cepra Mundi, they conquered the Guangcan System and eventually joined Third Legion at Agaros.

The black warships faced each other in the void, directly connected to the First Great Shipyard and the world's top-ranking ships. Bukayo House Arshavin took the initiative to board the Stormbird and fly towards the Radiance.

The flagship of the Second Legion, the Relic-class battleship Radiance.

After the Dark Lord stepped off the deck, he saw the Lord of Light waiting in the landing area and walked over to him.

"Wilshire, thank you for your help."

"All for my lord," Wilshire, who had been promoted to "Solar High Priest" during the "Coronid Abyss" campaign, said devoutly.

Wilshire is increasingly resembling the Chaplain of the Old Terra church in the book.

Upon receiving the orders, the two Chapter arrived in the Carium System in the 7th Sun month of 847.

Nimrod received his two lords in the Primarch's office on the Shadow of the Throne.

When Wilshire saw Nimrod, his eyes shone brightly, and he cried out "My Lord" faster and more devoutly Bukayo.

"My Lord of Light and Dark Lord, I've heard you've just completed a successful conquest."

Bukayo intended to hand the briefing to Wilshire, but Nightmare, through his superior intuition, realized that the Lord of Light had no intention of speaking, so he spoke up to report.

"My lord, my Chapter has been fighting in this area ever since the Rogue Trader discovered the sea route between Mordian and Cepra Mundi."

Nimrod slightly; he knew that the Warp Route between Mordian and Cepra Mundi was quite stable.

Even with the unfolding of the "Great Rift," this route, located in the Imperium Nihilus, remains a relatively stable sea route.

After Mordian was abandoned by the Imperium, "Iron Hands" scorned the Imperium's decision, believing that this industrialized world should not have been lost.

After the "Iron Hands" marched into Mordian and crushed the local Chaos, they were met with reinforcements from Cepra Mundi.

"There are eleven habitable star systems between Mordian and Cepra Mundi, among which the Khavos System is particularly rich."

"Human colonization established prosperous colonies in these areas, possessing not only fertile arable land but also abundant resources and a decent industrial base."

"..."

Nimrod in satisfaction, "Your Chapter needs to manage this area well."

The fleets of the Second, Third, Fifth, and Eleventh Chapter then sailed toward Carium Gate.

The fleet entered the Warp gate and sailed towards the target assembly point, the central region of the Galaxy, amidst the Aether tides.

The Shadow of the Throne, Primarch Office.

Arsena Dunn reported this to Nimrod with a sigh.

"My lord, the fleets of four Chapter have traveled from the Carium System in the northeastern part of the Segmentum Obscurus to the Rosario System in the Ultima Segmentum in just four standard ship times."

"According to chief Navigator Visher's calculations, it would normally take twenty-three weeks to reach the destination."

"The fleets of the Fourth Legion and Fifteenth Legion, which are closer in distance, are also far slower than ours."

Since returning to the Imperium, Arsena has traveled through countless Warp with the Primarch, but never as swiftly as she has now.

Nimrod nodded slightly and said:

"At this point, only one pair of space stations are being repaired, so the acceleration effect is limited."

"As more space stations are repaired, the effect of shortening the travel distance will become increasingly apparent."

He had anticipated this, and thought to himself:

If ground vehicles are measured in terms of acceleration per hundred kilometers, then the acceleration of Warp travel using the Carium Gate can be measured in terms of acceleration per hundred light-years.

However, the higher the value of the Carium Gate, the more likely it is to attract attacks during the Great Birthday Celebration.

In Nimrod's original memory, the Carium Gate could only be deployed in one direction, which would attract enemy attacks.

The current Karighams possess numerous Warp Gate, enabling them to travel in both directions to a certain extent, making them even more valuable.

After the war with Rangdan ends, the Ramillies-class Star Fortress will begin to reinforce star systems such as Vostonia.

Strategic locations like Caligum, like Cepra Mundy, require at least six Star Fortress.

While Nimrod was pondering, the Primarch's Attendants continued to report.

"The Adeptus Mechanicus ships will arrive in four weeks, according to standard ship time."

"Among the first batch of ships transported, there were 158 sets of Cataphractii Terminator Armour, all supplied to our legion."

"The Adeptus Mechanicus dispatched Father Malevolus and others, who were involved in the research and development of the Cataphractii-pattern, to assist the Legion in manufacturing the Cataphractii Terminator Armour."

Nimrod nodded and gave the order.

"The first batch of Cataphractii Terminator Armour will be assigned to the Second Legion."

"After the arrival of the Adeptus Mechanicus personnel, they had the Tech Sergeant work with the foundry to master the methods of manufacturing the Cataphractii-pattern."

[With the Cataphractii Terminator Armour, casualties will be reduced when attacking the Squats' underground city.]

"How long will it take for the Ramillies-class Star Fortress built by Calth and Ganyun to be completed respectively?"

Arsena pondered for a moment, then answered:

"My lord, although the shipyard in Calth started construction first, Ganyun's foundation was better, and it later surpassed it."

"Ganyun's first Ramillies-class Star Fortress will be completed in five years, while Calth's first Star Fortress will take twelve years to complete."

"The third Ramillies-class Star Fortress built by Cepra Mundy will be completed in a month. If necessary, it can be Tug to Carium Gate first, and then quickly deployed to the battlefield."

Nimrod knew that Ganyun, who had not been renamed Konor by Guilliman, was known as the Northern Center of the Five Hundred Worlds.

Calth did not grow into a shipyard on par with Konor until just before its Great Birthday Celebration.

Although the environment in the core region of the Galaxy is harsh, there are also many types of minerals that can only be found there.

A small base could be established here, protected by Bastion-class Energy Shield, and the people living inside the Ramillies-class Star Fortress wouldn't have a bad life.

We can also engage in long-term trade with the Squats; they have quite a few good things.

The Ramillies-class Star Fortress is too large to be transported through Warp Gate, but the Carium Gate, which allows an entire fleet to complete Warp travel, can deliver it to the battlefield.

Nimrod gathered his thoughts and gave the order:

"Squat is the central star system, and we must quickly gain the upper hand. The third Ramillies-class Star Fortress built by Cepra Mondy was Tug through the Carium Gate and delivered to Squat."

"Before Star Fortress arrives, the objective is to conquer the Rosario System, gain a foothold, and open the gateway to Squat."

The 750 warships of the four Chapter of "Shadow of Order" launched an attack on the Voidship of the Squats.
