Live transport experiment successes provided critically-important empirical data for Cairo's cross-dimensional research plans.
Maine crew's smooth round trips marked dimensional transport devices officially advancing from theoretical verification stages into preliminary practical testing phases.
However, Cairo wasn't deceived by successful appearances.
His logic core remained calm, clearly recognizing this was merely one node on lengthy research pathways.
Ahead still lay massive urgent problems requiring solving plus technical details awaiting optimization.
Returning to the Warhammer world, personally investigating that ancient ruin where transport devices were discovered, formally handling Magos promotions plus related affairs—were important segments in Cairo's established plans.
But he deeply knew—this matter absolutely couldn't be rushed.
One successful experiment still fell far short supporting such important, possibly-long-term-departure cross-dimensional operations.
He needed more sufficient technical reserves plus more thorough arrangements.
Current primary missions were thoroughly digesting massive data accumulated from this live transport.
Cairo invested most computational resources into deep parsing data streams.
He repeatedly scrutinized every energy injection curve during transport processes, every spatial resonance fluctuation, plus minute variations in Maine crew members' various physiological indicators.
On main consoles, complex three-dimensional waveform diagrams plus waterfall-like data lists continuously scrolled, reflecting in his crimson optical lenses.
Workshops echoed with his low synthesized voice—like conversing with servo-skulls hovering aside yet also like unconscious externalizations of thought processes.
"Old friend, look here."
Mechanical fingers pointed toward an abrupt spike on energy curves.
"Small abnormal overflow appeared during third-stage injection. This portion of energy was wasted for nothing—utterly meaningless."
He paused slightly—as if awaiting responses—then continued himself.
"Diversion structures must be redesigned. Current solutions too crude—can't bear cross-dimensional-level energy torrents."
Gaze turned toward another spatial resonance stability data group.
"Resonance frequencies exhibited periodic decay during maintenance periods. Fluctuation amplitudes exceeded model predictions."
He continued muttering. Lenses slightly flickering.
"Is our anchoring algorithm precision insufficient, or does local space itself possess some yet-unexplored 'turbulence'?"
"Without solving this problem, channel long-term stability can't be discussed."
Finally, he pulled up Maine crew members' physiological reports.
"Neural electrical signals showed large-scale disruptions during recombination stages. Though reversible, recovery time-consumption was excessively long."
"This indicates current life-support field effects are limited."
He seemingly stated conclusions toward servo-skulls.
"Seems purely energy shields aren't enough."
"We must develop technology capable synchronously stabilizing biological neural networks. Perhaps... can reverse-engineer from psychic suppressor principles."
He must comb through threads from complex information, identifying potential instability factors plus energy loss points.
Transforming this precious practical experience into solid foundations for next technical iterations.
After deep analyses, Cairo discovered—though transport succeeded macroscopically, energy utilization efficiency fell far short theoretical optimal values.
Massive energy was consumed maintaining channel stability and resisting unknown spatial resistance.
"Energy losses mainly concentrated at phase conversion critical points."
Synthesized voice rang again—as if dialoguing with silent skulls.
"Over forty percent energy used offsetting some dimensional repulsion force we can't yet quantify. Efficiency truly too low."
Additionally, transport processes caused physiological and neural loads on organic lifeforms plus precision equipment. Though not causing permanent damage, intensities sufficed causing significant combat capability declines for short periods.
"Look at these neural signal overload peaks."
He pulled up Maine's physiological charts.
"If engaging enemies immediately post-transport, their reaction speeds would drop over thirty percent."
"For future possibly-immediately-combat-requiring force deployments, this is non-negligible defects."
Simultaneously, one previously-shelved speculation due to insufficient information resurfaced in his calculation sequences.
That ancient ruin where transport devices were discovered—its structures and materials perhaps weren't ordinary architectural remnants but played some auxiliary or stabilizing roles for cross-dimensional transport.
"Old friend, we might've initially overlooked something critical."
He addressed servo-skulls—like re-examining initial exploration records.
"Those asymmetric arched walls plus energy-conducting metal veins inside ruins... they perhaps weren't only supporting structures but massive resonance chambers—or energy guidance matrices."
Perhaps certain ruin constructions could converge or guide specific energy fields, thereby lowering energy thresholds and stability requirements for independently activating transport devices.
But this currently remained only logical inferences based on limited observations.
"Without on-site scans and energy field mappings, everything's just hypotheses."
Truth required returning to Warhammer worlds, conducting thorough ruin surveys for confirmation.
Therefore, before initiating return journeys, Cairo deemed dimensional transport devices required at least one round of deep optimizations.
He planned proceeding from several directions.
First—redesigning energy diversion structures, attempting adopting more efficient energy-conducting materials, reducing dissipation during transmission processes.
"We need mediums with higher dimensional energy affinity. Perhaps can incorporate that world's unique amorphous metal ceramics."
Second—fine-tuning resonance frequency algorithms, seeking resonance points better matching local spatial structures, elevating channel inherent stability.
"Algorithms need introducing dynamic adaptation variables. Can't use fixed frequency parameters anymore."
Third—installing auxiliary stabilization field generators targeting lifeforms for transport chambers, aiming at mitigating neural and physical tearing plus disruptions transport caused.
"Stabilization fields must synchronize with biological neural electrical rhythms, not brutally isolating all external forces."
"This requires more refined biological signal models."
These improvements all required time for simulation calculations, material preparations, physical testing.
On another hand, ensuring cyberpunk world's side didn't encounter chaos during his absences was also critically-important preparatory work.
Wasteland workshops were his important research bases and fallback routes—couldn't fail.
Maine's crew was his key tentacles interacting with local factions, obtaining resources—must maintain effective operations.
"They need clearer mission guidance plus self-preservation power levels."
He assessed.
"During our absences, they must independently handle corporate probes and street threats."
He needed making deployments in advance, maintaining current balanced situations.
Ensuring this temporary base—upon his return—remained intact and under control.
