Oz Tina looked at the cheering Players.
She could understand most of what these people said when they talked.
But sometimes, their words would suddenly turn into chaotic static.
Even when her language system activated its anti-interference and decryption functions, it couldn't eliminate the static.
This anomaly made her wary.
When Alex saw Oz Tina's expression, he immediately realized that she had detected the Players' anomaly.
Alex's mind spun, and he decided to be frank to gain her trust.
"Is it convenient to talk alone? Father Tina, there are some things we need to discuss in a private place."
Facing Alex's invitation, Tina hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
A series of Cogitator wetware and calculating servitors lined the metal wall, making beeping sounds.
Over a dozen projection interfaces floated in the air, emitting a pale white light.
Alex and Tina walked into the inner part of the data control room.
Here, they were far from the Players.
"Presumably, you've already realized our unusual nature."
Alex went straight to the point, not intending to waste time.
"Actually, those outside are not ordinary people, but God Chosen blessed by the God-Emperor, walking among the stars as His will."
Alex's words made Tina widen her eyes, and a look of shock appeared on her face, which was implanted with metal bionics, but it quickly vanished.
"Your words lack sufficient data support and cannot prove that you are the God Chosen envoys of the omnissiah."
"Can this prove it?"
Alex extended his hand and activated the skill [Light of the Emperor].
Golden radiance swirled between his fingers.
"Cadia has fallen, and the chaotic evil forces are invading Holy Terra (Earth/Reality) at an unprecedented scale. Humanity will face the most terrifying and darkest era of the end."

"But this is also humanity's opportunity. The God-Emperor is humanity's strongest psyker. The appearance of the Great Rift not only strengthened those evil demons but also granted Him greater power, allowing Him to do more."
"He chose me to become a Living Saint, to lead these chosen ones, to temper them, and to prepare for the final war."
The servo-skull connected to Oz Tina's spine buzzed and flew out, scanning the radiance in Alex's palm.
A large amount of data flooded into Tina's processing core.
Analysis results showed that this radiance could make machine spirits feel joyful and suppress Warp creatures.
It perfectly matched various characteristics of the omnissiah's might.
This sacred data phenomenon caused Oz Tina's computational load to sharply increase.
The auxiliary logic modules in her skull operated at high speed.
Hot steam spewed from the heat vents.
Alex's nose twitched; he seemed to smell the scent of roasted flesh.
He looked at Oz Tina with some concern, fearing that she might burn out her brain.
After a long wait, Oz Tina finished her contemplation and made a judgment.
She decided to trust the man in front of her.
After all, it couldn't get any worse than the current situation.
In this desperate era plunged into chaos and darkness, the appearance of a group of omnissiah's God Chosen was not an unacceptable event.
"Holy omnissiah above, may I ask what I should call you."
Oz Tina humbly bowed her head to Alex, the sound of her spinal gears turning echoing in the noisy data control room.
Alex breathed a sigh of relief; if Oz Tina had been stubborn, it would have been over.
Now, the entire area's automatic weapon system was in her hands.
A single thought from her could blast them to pieces.
"You may call me the Guide. Thank you for your trust, Father Tina. I believe with your help, we can more smoothly complete the God-Emperor's mission and protect humanity from evil."
"I will assist you with all my might, Guide. What is our next mission?"
"The immediate priority is to clear out the surface rebels and assist the loyalists in regaining control of Planet Atoma. How much do you know about the surface situation?"
Oz Tina shook her head, "I know nothing about the surface battle."
"Lykard Space Station's communication system went offline due to a virus code released by the rebels, preventing it from receiving information from the ground and the void."
"Then how did you contact us?" Alex asked with some curiosity.
"I have a small communication module within me that can transmit data and communicate within a certain range."
Alex showed a thoughtful expression.
After weighing his options, he decided to reclaim Lykard Space Station first, then proceed to the surface.
Lykard Space Station had giant ports and shipyards.
This would allow the Imperial Glory to undergo repairs, resupply ammunition, and provisions here.
The Players would also gain a larger area of activity here.
"Tina, which Forge World are you from?" Alex inquired.
"I am from Tri-Fal, a Forge World located at the edge of the galaxy."
Tina's words surprised Alex.
Having been chosen by the Emperor to work like a beast of burden, he was naturally a Warhammer fan who knew the Empire's intelligence like the back of his hand.
Tri-Fal was also a Forge World with a story in Warhammer.
This Forge World was located in the outermost region of the Ultima Segmentum in the eastern part of the galaxy.
Due to its great distance from Mars, it had long been in a state of autonomy.
They possessed much dark technology, and their products also supplied the Imperial army.
But they never shared their knowledge with Mars.
Past delegations from Mars either returned empty-handed or brought back blueprints lacking crucial details.
Such behavior infuriated the Archmagos of Mars.
Alex was very satisfied with Tina's background.
After all, most of what the Players did was unconventional.
If Tina were a conservative from Mars, there would be a lot of trouble in the future.
"By the way, do you understand bio-enhancement, bionic implantation, and weapon maintenance?"
Tina nodded, "I am a Maintenance Priest; I need to maintain machinery and manufacture servitors, so I naturally understand these basic skills."
"Very good. From now on, you are the owner of the Prosthetic Shop. The God Chosen will use the contribution points earned from completing missions to purchase your goods."
"At that time, you can also issue missions for them to do things for you."
Alex and Oz Tina explained the contribution point system in detail.
And granted her secondary permission to issue missions.
"omnissiah above," Oz Tina showed a confused expression, "Why is this so troublesome? Shouldn't obeying orders be what they do?"
"They are a bit different." Alex paused, "They are the God Chosen of the God-Emperor; each has their own thoughts."
"I don't know why the God-Emperor would do this; His wisdom is not something I can fathom."
"All I can do is find a way to Guide these God Chosen and ensure they complete the tasks assigned by the God-Emperor."
Alex attributed the inexplicable parts to the Emperor.
Given the current fanatical level of Imperial faith in the Emperor, it's unlikely anyone would dare to question it.
"I cannot comprehend such a method, but I will execute it according to your command."
Oz Tina was somewhat confused by Alex's words.
But out of trust, she still intended to believe Alex and execute all commands he issued.
