With Alloy cable arrangement completed.
Adeptus Mechanicus's exploration team began to speed up its operations.
Under the instructions of four Tech-Priest, a mesher made of a simple gear, Servo Motor and a simple steel shell was installed on the Alloy cable.
Since there is almost no friction on the tunnel wall, gears and silicone oil will help them reach the depths.
At any other time, they would never have made such a hasty piece of machinery, no matter how crude it was.
But the temptation brought to them by Men of Iron is too great.
Everyone wants to know why these Abominable Intelligence suddenly visited this Planet that no one has ever set foot on.
Everyone in Adeptus Mechanicus's exploration fleet is a very curious guy, and they are somewhat different from other Adeptus Mechanicus members.
That is the only enterprising spirit left in mankind.
But even so, they still have Adeptus Mechanicus's unique pedantry.
"Omnissiah, I hope this thing can be useful. I hope Machine God will forgive us for our haste."
When the gear mesher bit the steel cable, the Priest people quickly recited a Binary Prayer in front of this crude device to praise Omnissiah's greatness and appease Machine Spirit.
Later, a small incense burner contributed by Priest was even hung on the mechanical device that acted as a descent device.
The lit Sacred Incense emits smoke with a peculiar smell.
"Buzz."
As the Menialss stepped forward one by one, this crude mechanical device was activated.
There are four link ports on it that can be hung with some simple hooks.
Menials hung the straps they used to transport supplies on it and fixed the supplies, and then they directly grabbed the cable according to the instructions.
The bionic arm made by Alloy is strong enough to grasp the Alloy cable.
Even if it falls accidentally, it won't be a big problem.
For Priests, those materials are much more valuable than these stupid Servitors.
Menials people lined up and then grabbed the cable first and began to dive downward.
After suffering a few broken limbs and other minor damage, Menials successfully reached the first platform first.
Then they began to make a simple fulcrum on the ground and simply fixed the Alloy cable.
The anchor as the core of the fulcrum is made by splicing the Bionic Body components from the first fallen Menials.
After Menials arrived, the vanguard descended was Skitarii, followed by the four Tech-Priest, and finally the rear Skitarii Alpha and other heavy combat Menials.
After completely losing six ordinary Menialss and reducing the team's weight by a quarter, they successfully reached the depths of the underground.
The sloping corridor finally reached a huge man-made passage.
The temperature here is enough to make ordinary people feel unbearably hot.
But for the Tech-Priests, the heat dissipation efficiency of their Bionic Bodys has been increased by 15%.
As for Skitarii and Menials, they completely ignored the discomfort caused by high temperature.
Their brains have all been modified, and Skitarii has even received simple genetic enhancement.
Unless the temperature is high enough to cause their flesh and blood components to begin to lose activity, the ambient temperature of forty or fifty degrees is not enough to stop them from moving.
"Did you see that?"
"Yes, there are obvious man-made traces here."
"How on earth do these Abominable Intelligences know that there is a Ancient Ruins so deep underground?"
"Perhaps you should ask them yourself. Some people say that these Abominable Intelligence are not as scary as what is written in Treaty of Mars. They are even easy to communicate with."
"Perhaps this is what Omnissiah wants to see."
Priest people kept talking with their eyes widened.
Although there is no ambient lighting deep underground, they can still easily see everything in the surrounding darkness with the help of their artificial eyes and the flashlight on the firearm in the hands of Skitarii Pioneer.
"There is no doubt that this is a Ancient Ruins. Very old."
The huge passage seems to be made by some kind of Alloy, and the huge structure is covered with various cracks and gaps.
Explorator Priest stretched out his hand and touched the metal passage wall, and the coldness coming from it told the truth.
"The Alloy formula has never been seen before. Such deep underground and long years, these materials still remain generally intact."
"I don't recommend that you touch anything on these ancient ruins. We don't even know if it will cause any chain reactions."
Another Priest immediately reached out and pulled back the probe Explorator Priest was about to poke.
"Okay, now what do we do? Keep moving forward?"
Explorator Priest shrugged, then turned around, and silently used the probe to lightly scratch the wall, hoping to collect some debris particles.
"We move forward."
The exploration team continued to advance, with the vanguard and heavy combat Menials at the forefront, and the Priest and Alpha moving forward together. As for the few remaining ordinary Menials, they slowly followed behind, dragging supplies.
They continued to move forward for nearly a hundred meters, when a slight sound of airflow began to appear around them, and the temperature began to drop.
There were even some broken lighting devices on the surrounding walls that flickered tenaciously.
With the help of the implanted Bionic Body, they easily located the source of the sound.
It is the ventilation duct at the top of the passage.
This ruins seems to still be in operation, and the ancient facilities are still purifying the air and adjusting the temperature.
After turning a large angle, the surrounding area became as bright as the ground.
A huge figure stood on the edge of the passage in front of them.
It was a Gaze-Render from Men of Iron. This was the first time they had seen this huge Machine Body with their own eyes.
It is as motionless as a sculpture.
But the rapid rotation of its head toward the crowd's eyepieces meant that it had not stopped moving.
Behind him, you can see that the huge gate that is nearly one meter thick has been completely opened, and there seem to be countless secrets buried deeper.
"This place is Federation Classified Facility. Unauthorized personnel are not allowed to enter. Immediately..."
"Zizzi."
There was a sudden slight sound inside the wall of the wide passage, and a broken turret flipped out of the wall.
Above is a quadruple weapon with only one barrel left.
The bracket has been twisted and deformed, but there is still a broken barrel that is still functioning.
Everyone only saw a few rays of light flash by, and the heavy combat Menials in the team immediately turned into fragments.
The smell of ozone emitted by energy ionization remains in the air. This is not the effect of the attack, but the damaged turret is arcing outward.
Before everyone in the exploration team could make any reaction, Gaze-Render standing there made a slight buzzing sound.
The turret immediately lost its movement.
"Dong dong dong."
As a dull sound of footsteps came from the depths of the open passage, several Gaze-Renders came out of it one after another and then walked directly out from above the heads of the exploration team.
