Warhammer, but Emperor's Chosen

"Before I arrived, Lady Theodora was at the observation deck, which was the epicenter of the rebellion. So…."

Noah lowered his head in silence, and seemed to be feeling a little sad - but he was not.

Theodora's death was inevitable. If Witwell didn't kill her, the Inquisition would have killed her. If the Inquisition didn't kill him, it would have killed him. Because if Theodora didn't die, he, the heir, would always be just an heir and could never become a true Rogue Trader.

So the answer is obvious - only the dead Theodora is the good Theodora.

As for why Sister Ajetta appeared here, it certainly could not be Theodora's order. Not to mention whether Theodora could command this nun, even if she could, she would give priority to Ajetta to protect her safety instead of protecting Noah, the heir.

As for more obvious evidence...

Noah looked at the extra Sister Ajetta in the teammate column, and the silence was deafening.

If he had only suspected before, now he had solid evidence - Sister Ajetta definitely had the memory of the first week!

Otherwise, who would have the time to protect a stranger like him?

You have to know that before this, he and this nun had never had any intersection!

But in the game, Noah and the nun are also on a love route - although the original game does not have this line, the MOD does.

Of course, Noah accepted everyone who came.

Van Dier can do it, but I can't?

Anyway, when he played Stellaris, he treated it as a relationship-building game, so why not Warhammer?

Even in the characters he created himself, there is a little bit of wife...well, a little bit.

When Noah thought of this, he suddenly had a heart attack.

Could it be that the one targeting him wasn't Jianqi or Huangpizi but Sister S?

Isn't it?

Being naughty is nothing. The most you can do in the game is to have a sweet love affair. There is nothing else you can do!

Can this also be targeted?

Forget it, the road will be straight when you reach the bridge.

There's no way to resist anyway, so just enjoy it.

Noah, who had made up his mind, looked up at Ajieta and asked:

"Sister Ajetta, Lady Theodora is fighting, I can't hide here and be a coward. Are you willing to join me in destroying the heretics?"

"Of course, Sir Noah, it's my honor."

Sister Ajetta answered without any hesitation, but her brows slightly frowned, as if she was dissatisfied with Noah adding the word "nun" after her name.

"Then let us fight for the God-Emperor!"

Noah clenched his plasma pistol. He insisted on joining the battle not because he wanted to die nor because Ajetta's joining was a bit too much, but out of practical considerations - even though Theodora was most likely already dead and returned to Tzeentch, as the only designated heir of the dynasty, it was a foregone conclusion that he would become a Rogue Merchant.

But if he were to take over in this way, some of his subordinates would inevitably be dissatisfied.

So he needs a little achievement to establish his own dignity.

Of course, he also needed to make sure that Lady Theodora's diehard fans would be lucky enough to die in this rebellion.

If not, then he would help them.

Chapter 4: Are you dead? If not, I'll shoot you again

Constellation, bridge.

The elevator in the captain's room can directly lead to the bridge, making it convenient for the captain to command the warship at any time.

When Noah and Sister Ajetta took the elevator to the bridge, a large number of bridge officers were still doing their duties, and bridge technicians were inspecting and maintaining the Thinker array.

They were nervous for a moment at the arrival of the two people, but when they saw Sister Ajetta's appearance, they calmed down.

A tall, thin woman with a shaved head walked towards them. She had a mechanical implant similar to a respirator in her mouth. Dozens of tubes were connected to her bald head, and there were almost as many implants on her body as flesh.

That was Vigdis, the battleship's sound array master, responsible for receiving, sending and processing all communications on the ship.

She did not look at Noah, but said to Ajetta in a hoarse voice:

"Sister Ajetta, Steward Abelard reports that the Rogue Trader is trapped on the observation deck. He is leading the deck enforcers to attack the cultists' defenses. If possible, we hope you can go to rescue him."

"Noah, what do you think?"

Ajetta had unconsciously changed her address, dropping the word Your Excellency.

The servoskulls floated beside them, remaining silent throughout.

Noah looked serious:

"We must rescue Lady Theodora immediately!"

He had to immediately confirm whether Theodora was dead. If she was not dead, he would find a way to shoot her in the back - even if he shot her in person, it didn't matter. As long as Theodora was dead, he would be the only heir.

This battleship will only recognize the bloodline of the von Valancius family. If others don't want to die, they have to acknowledge his status.

"Okay, come with me."

Sister Ajetta nodded slightly, and without paying any attention to the bald man beside her, she took Noah away from the bridge and headed towards the observation deck.

Along the way, in the corridors of the upper deck, they saw the bodies of many law enforcers and cultists.

These cultists came from nowhere and rushed into the upper deck, using the simple weapons in their hands to catch the law enforcers off guard. Although they did not threaten the bridge for the time being, many people still died in the riot.

As Noah and Ajetta moved forward, they finally encountered cultists who were shooting at law enforcement officers in a corridor full of exposed pipelines.

When they arrived, the cultists, armed with assembled simple firearms and melee weapons, had already broken through the law enforcement officers' defenses, and several of them even rushed towards them with roars.

Boom, boom, boom! ! ! ! !

Dull gunshots rang out, and bombs spurted out from the muzzles of the bolt guns painted with golden irises. Each bomb flew towards their enemies accurately and tore their flesh apart when hitting them, leaving the ground covered with shattered human tissue, plasma, and bone fragments.

Sister Ajetta, who did all this, held her bolter calmly, chanting the Emperor's merciful prayer:

"I will have no mercy on your enemy, nor will I listen to his prayers."

Boom boom boom!

"I will never betray your creed, not even a step away from it."

Boom boom boom!

Sister Ajetta is obviously well-educated, unlike Noah, who only has one sentence -

"For the Emperor!"

Noah, who had been following Sister Ajetta, shouted the name of the Emperor and raised his plasma pistol while pointing his gun at a cultist whose body was obviously swollen and deformed, not like that of a normal person, with a high bulge on his back, and who was roaring and rushing towards Sister Ajetta.

boom!

A dazzling blue plasma ball spurted out from the muzzle, piercing through its enemy in the blink of an eye. The body of the aberrant cultist suddenly exploded, but there was not much blood splattering, because the blood had been dissolved and vaporized by the high temperature of the plasma ball before it was spurted out, and in the end nothing was left.

A large hole had been melted into the wall of the corridor, and suffocating, hot gases from the molten metal were stirred by the ventilation system.

Although the plasma pistol is powerful, it takes 30 seconds to recharge between each shot, and some models of plasma pistols can easily overload and explode if fired continuously.

but--

Noah has unlimited bullets and shoots quickly!

Don’t ask, the answer is that the machine soul is very happy!

Noah rushed to the front, not afraid of the cultists' firepower, and continued to kill enemies within the range of the plasma "explosion" with his "precise" shooting skills. Anyway, he has an infinite shield, so if you can kill me, I lose!

There is no doubt that Noah's 'bravery' is a great inspiration to the law enforcement officers and officers around him.

Under his leadership, the cultists' defense line was quickly broken, but a cultist hiding in the dark shot Noah in the back when he passed by him.

The next moment, the cultist's expression changed from joy at hitting the enemy to fear at seeing the laser melting on the shield. Noah turned around and pulled the trigger again, melting a big hole in the cultist and the corridor wall.

Noah looked disdainful. What is there to be afraid of? You look so ignorant. Is it open if it is not closed?

"Praise the God-Emperor! Thank you for your help, my lord."

The officer leading the law enforcers walked forward with a look of relief at having survived the disaster and full of gratitude.

Noah ignored his gratitude and ordered:

"Gather your remaining soldiers and rush to the observation deck with me."

Going it alone is typical individual heroism, but Noah has always been a collective hero - to put it simply, he needs cannon fodder, the more the better.

"Yes, my lord!"

The officer did not dare to refute and respectfully performed the Sky Eagle Salute to Noah and Ajetta who were passing by.

"My God, my light, my Emperor!"

Ajetta was still reciting the prayer meticulously, as if it would be some kind of sin if she didn't finish the prayer.

Walking along the dim corridor, Noah and Ajetta easily broke through the simple positions built by the cultists. Along the way, they also encountered a group of law enforcers coming from other directions for support. After a simple visual confirmation, the officer leading the law enforcers took the initiative to walk towards them.

He was an officer with gray hair and a tough and serious temperament. His brass-colored skin was covered with solid muscles, implants, and bones, and his chest carapace was inlaid with skulls and eagle decorations.

Noah knew him; he was Theodora's chief minister, Abelard Wilson.

He was the one who brought him on board the ship, and he was the first character Noah came into contact with. But he obviously didn't have the memory of the first episode, otherwise Noah would have known everything that was about to happen when they met.

The butler was far from being as elegant as he was when they first met. Instead, he looked very embarrassed. His forehead was covered with sweat, his breathing was quite heavy, and the right sleeve of his coat was torn and soaked with blood. The cultists had obviously caused him a lot of trouble.

Although he is thin, his posture is still steady and his eyes are still sharp.

But when Abelard saw Noah and Ajetta walking together, his expression became a little heavy, and he asked in a deep voice:

"Sister Ajetta, and Lord Noah, are you here to provide support?"

"Yes, General Abelard, have you found Mrs. Theodora?" Noah asked.

Abelard gnashed his teeth and said:

"These damn cultists occupy the observation deck. I don't know how they locked the gate. We can't break in for the time being!"

"I think I should be able to provide some help." A pleasant voice sounded in the ears of several people.

Noah looked in the direction of the voice, which was a female technical priest in a red robe.

Generally speaking, both male and female mechanics who believe in mechanical ascension will gradually replace their flesh with a large number of mechanical implants. The more experienced the mechanic, the less human they are, and in the end, apart from the necessary wetware, all that remains is a mechanical body connected by various complex circuits.

But the female technical priest in front of him was obviously different. Although like other oil men, she also had a lot of implants on her body. For example, her right arm was completely replaced with a mechanical arm, holding a huge power axe in her hand, but other than that, the rest of her body was almost still human flesh.

She had soft, long, light grey hair, blue eyes, and a pretty face that was no less beautiful than Ajetta's.

Compared to the conventional oil man, she looks more like an intellectual big sister.

The female oil worker looked at Noah with a friendly smile on her face:

"Nice to meet you, Lord Noah. My name is Nono, and I am the main engine prophet of this ship."

Nono's name is Nono, which makes perfect sense -

Noah remained silent, a deafening silence.

Nono's original form is a star god, a star god that has been integrated into this spaceship. As a machine soul, she certainly has no body.

Although as the plot progresses, the Oil Man will indeed dedicate his body to Nono like the Pilgrim, allowing Nono to appear in a physical form. In fact, even if the Oil Man did not sacrifice himself, Nono, as the machine soul of the Stars, could control all the mechanical servants on the ship and could perform a mechanical deification at any time.

But Noah thought the Oil Man in the game was ugly. With the mentality of supporting his wife, Noah simply spent 3 hours creating a character just for Nono, and gave this character to Nono as a body instead of the Oil Man.

The wife he sculpted and the female technical priest who called herself "Nono" in front of him were not exactly the same, but at least they were completely identical.

however!

He was the one who shaped Nono’s body in the game!

Even though it's the second round, he hasn't created a character yet, so why does Nono already have this body?

Is this reasonable?
