"WHAT?! WE HAVE TO CAPTURE THAT TRAITOR!?!?" Jaghatai Khan was, as expected, really angry. I gave my best equivalent to a shrug.
"That's what I was told. The Emperor couldn't get much over the shouting of the daemons." I replied while keeping a side eye on the frontline. Tzen sent more daemons to fight with me. That one really does not want me touching Magnus. Who apparently couldn't leave where he was at the moment cause he was researching something called the Black Library.
"We cannot ignore the will of the Emperor. What about pushing to the other end of the tunnel?" Chapter Master Phoros asked. I showed a map, a massive map using my Glop.
"We won't be sending everyone to Magnus. I'm hoping that Primarch Khan here will take a Legion of Glops to push at Magnus's location. While the Primarch is doing that we will continue our assault further to the tunnel while destroying the Dark Eldar Cities in our path. The Daemons are using those cities to make stronger Daemons to attack us with. The more we crush and filter out, the easier our push toward the other end of the tunnel will be." I said, showing examples using the malleability of my body.
""Which Legion?"" Chapter Master Phoros and Chapter Master Tu Shan both spoke at the same time. I give both of them a look. This isn't the time to be fighting over credit.
"The Salamander Glop Legion. They would be more effective in this instance. That Daemon God forces are quite weak to the Salamander Glops. They would be an effective force for Primarch Khan to use. I'll also send a Legion of standard Glops to follow Primarch Khan's example, so he will have a Legion of Glops on his own to use." I said, mentally separating more Glops from the whole.
"Wait, so you are saying I'll have an army of these little guys?" Khan said, pointing to the Glop on his shoulder.
I nodded, or well, shook my body. "Yes. They will learn from you and take on aspects related to you the more action you see. Like how Chapter Master Phoros and Chapter Master Tu Shan did."
He had a massive grin on his face. "Hear that little guy? We are going to get you some battle brothers!" The glop spun in place… Why is the Glop acting like a cute child?! Oh well. Not much I can do about that.
"What about the White Scars? They would wish to meet with the Primarch before he goes off on this mission." Chapter Master Tu Shan said.
A sigh came out of me. "They will have to wait. The Emperor's orders can't be ignored. The only one I know capable of containing a Primarch would be another Primarch. Primarch Khan here is the only one we have access to."
Primarch Khan nodded. "Glop here is right. If Magnus must be captured instead of killed. It is best if I deal with them. Plus it will allow me to show the damned chaos why they shouldn't have messed with me."
"On that note. I actually have some Missions for your Legions on the materium side Chapter Master Phoros and Chapter Master Tu Shan." They focused on me. Prepared for the worst. The Glop I was using as a map unflattened itself, instead taking the shape of a cube, adopting a more transparent color as it started to show a star chart. Several locations were immediately highlighted.
"I need you to go to these worlds and recover the STC's located there."
"So many?!?" Chapter Master Phoros spoke first, shocked.
I nodded. "Yes. I've found several corrupted AI souls that I had to clean up. In the leftover data, I found these. I'm unsure how intact these STC's are, but I do know a lot of them are corrupted. I'll be sending a Legion of my newly named Purifier Glops with both of you to clean the Chaos taint off the STCs, your Tech-Priests should be able to do the rest."
"Abominable Intelligence was holding back on us." A new voice interrupted us, Tech-Priest Gera spoke.
I nodded, "Yes. For some reason, the A.I.s of the Dark Age of technology refused to actually tell us the truth. It took a bit of work to get them to spill what they actually know. I'm not sure why the humans of old tried to put so many logical inconsistencies within the A.I."
"You're blaming ancient humanity for the failings of the abominable intelligence Glop?" Tech-priest Gera spoke, letting out a bit of anger.
I shrugged. "Possibly. It's hard to tell, honestly, I'd probably blame the Eldar for this. It fits their M.O."
The Tech-priest was still mad, but at someone else now. "How?"
"Do any of your know why A.I. is considered an Abominable Intelligence?" They all nodded no.
I sighed, "Time for a history lesson then. A long time ago, during the Golden Age of Humanity, Humans were at their peak. Our culture was unsurpassed, our technology was far beyond its time, and our power was strong. The Emperor hadn't needed to reveal himself at this time, preferring to instead watch as humanity developed. We grew so advanced that we started to use machines… a lot of machines. Machines were part of humanity from the bottom up. To the point where they made the Men of Iron. Machines dedicated solely to waging war in humanity's stead. A.I. powered Human Society, controlled the Men of Iron, and even assisted in progressing science. In only a few dozen years we would start to surpass even the peak of the Eldars Empire."
They were entranced by my words. "Some factions in the Eldar. Namely, those with Farseerers took offense to this. They refused to see humans as more than animals that they could occasionally have fun with. So these factions decided to make a move. They started by setting off a chain of events that would cause Humanity to remove its human lead armada. The United Navy was disbanded and completely replaced by the Men of Iron in totality. But this would have been fine, perfect even. But the Eldar had messed with the A.I.s logic templates. Causing a virus, a virus that would spread. Unknowingly the Eldar had played right into the Daemon Gods' hands."
"You see, the Chaos Gods had eyes on this mechanical army of humanity, and they wanted it. It was a direct line into controlling the Material Realm. The virus that the Eldar had caused to appear? It allowed the Chaos Gods to directly corrupt the A.I. of the Men of Iron, and every other A.I. thus forth. Then we reach the Men of Iron's last service to humanity. The A.I. that hadn't been corrupted yet, had warned Humanity of the Men of Iron's upcoming rebellion. Causing a devastating war to break out. But it was an inevitable defeat. The Men of Iron had been too corrupted, leaving the loyalist A.I. with very few forces to fight back with." The entire time I was speaking, the glop cube had been showing them the forces of the past.
"But the unity of A.I. and Man was too powerful. It allowed Humanity to push back, to destroy the Men of Iron. But the damage had been done. Humanity had been fractured, and the foundations of the Age of Strife had been put into place. As far as the Eldar were concerned. They were successful. Humanity would no longer threaten their dominance." Then I laughed, a grim and evil laugh.
"Then they murder fucked a Daemon God into existence completely screwing their entire race." The Glop showed the complete collapse of the ancient Eldar Empire, and an uncountable amount of lives erased in an instant.
"Leaving only the Chaos as the winners… Except humanity had one final fallback. One final line of defense against the forces that be." I showed the Emperor in his full glory starting the Imperium.
There was silence as they processed the information.
"How did you get all this information?" Chapter Master Tu Shan spoke.
"Memories of the past reside in the immaterial realm. You just have to look for them."
"That's what I was told. The Emperor couldn't get much over the shouting of the daemons." I replied while keeping a side eye on the frontline. Tzen sent more daemons to fight with me.
