Dominic and another guard beside him exchanged a glance.

The guard shook his head slightly, a hint of doubt flashing in his blue eyes.

She is a special Psyker, with Psychic Power level of only ζ (zeta), belonging to the weakest Psyker who can legally use Psychic Power.

But she awakened a particularly useful ability: she could sense the Psychic Power fluctuations caused by lies.

But when Lynn spoke just now, she didn't sense any lie in his words.

Lynn was calm and composed; every word he spoke sounded like absolute truth.

There are only two possibilities: either Lynn is telling the truth.

Alternatively, his mental strength was so great that he could ignore the Sisters of Silence and Ralfa's suppression, and deceive his own guards.

The latter is almost impossible.

Even the most powerful Psyker could not hide their lies so perfectly in front of the Lalathin the Huntress of Oblivion.

For the first time, Dominic felt a flicker of doubt.

Could it be... that he's telling the truth?

Lynn watched the changing expressions on Dominic's face and smiled calmly.

He took a Dataslate out of his pocket, placed it on the table, and pushed it in front of Dominic.

"Lord Dominic, I know that words alone are not enough and you won't believe me."

"This contains detailed records of all of Brevis's war and political affairs over the past six months."

"Every battle, every victory, every soldier who sacrificed their life is clearly written here; you can see it for yourself."

Dominic hesitated for a moment, then picked up the Dataslate.

He swiped his finger across the pages and began to browse the contents.

Ralfa also came over and watched with him.

The room fell silent, with only the faint light from the Dataslate screen illuminating their faces.

As Dominic delved deeper into the book, his expression shifted from initial disdain to surprise, and finally to disbelief.

The records on the Dataslate were shockingly detailed.

It contains not only written records, but also a large number of battlefield photos and video clips.

The records of the Battle of the Forbidden Wall clearly document the terrifying strength of Mountain Fat Guga.

That four-meter-tall, Orks behemoth clad in tank armor led hundreds of millions of Orks warriors to breach the Forbidden Wall's defenses.

Countless PDFs fell victim to the Orks authorities' swords, and the defenses crumbled step by step.

But the "trap" formed by the second and third inner walls gave Dominic a glimmer of hope.

And at the most critical moment, Lynn personally led the Vanguard into battle.

In the video, Lynn, clad in Power Armour and wielding Power Sword, rampages through the Orks horde as if they were nothing.

When Shanpang Guga was weak, he beheaded him with a single sword stroke.

The Orks army, leaderless, collapsed instantly, Vanguard seized the opportunity to launch a counterattack, achieving a great victory.

Next up is the record of eliminating Erko, the mechanical enemy.

Erko was a Mekboy young man who served under the Mountain Fat Guga, after the Mountain Fat Guga's death.

Through my Power of Belief, I created a powerful flamethrower and a formidable Orks mech.

It regrouped the Orks scattered deep within the ice plains, forming a massive legion that launched a full-scale attack on the Forbidden Wall.

Here, Lynn deliberately omitted the fact that Erko created the flamethrower to counter the " Frost Soldier," and that he and Rena ultimately worked together to kill Erko.

Next is the mobilization record of the Icefield Savages.

Lynn personally negotiated with the chieftains of the two largest Brevis savage clans.

He promised them a chance to continue the clan's life, and moved the old, weak, sick, and disabled to the warmer and more comfortable area around the main nest.

In exchange for this, they would gain the right of these savages to fight for them.

Those barbarians who lived on the ice plains year-round were formidable fighters and familiar with the terrain, making them an important force in the fight against the Orks.

Their guerrilla forces, appearing and disappearing unpredictably, constantly harassed the Orks 'Orks strongholds, keeping them constantly on the move and preventing them from forming large settlements and giving rise to new warbosses.

What shocked Dominic the most was the record of the expedition to Carl II.

It details how Lynn exploited the internal strife within the Orks, specifically between the two Warboss, the Sith and Chandler.

When both sides were weakened, he seized the opportunity to lead the Expeditionary Force in a general offensive and recaptured Carl II in one fell swoop.

Although the footage of the battle Sith and Chandler in the video is somewhat blurry due to the distance, the earth-shattering power can still be felt.

In addition to war records, the Dataslate also contains all of Lynn's administrative records from the six months since he took office.

He broke the Noble Council's monopoly on grain and created the Vanguard.

By utilizing the food supplies and large quantities of military equipment needed by the Vanguard, they took advantage of the excess industrial capacity in Midtown Midtown revitalize it.

They also recruited a large number of people from the Lower City into the Vanguard, which greatly enhanced Brevis's independent defense capabilities.

They also alleviated the famine in the Lower City through military subsidies.

He even thwarted a Chaos plot at Saint Garus Castle, slaying the Chaos Prince of St. Garus and crushing the evil scheme of a Tzeentch Sorcerer.

Each record contains specific time, place, people, and data, making it undeniably authentic.

Dominic himself was a battle-hardened general, so he could naturally discern the authenticity of these details.

Each of these battles was exceptionally difficult and extremely fierce.

The defeat in any battle could lead to Brevis's complete destruction.

This young governor, who had only been in office for a little over six months, actually managed to hold on and win all the battles.

This is simply a miracle.

The only thing that puzzled Dominic was that the record mentioned that Brevis hadn't completely wiped out the Orks deep in the Icefield.

This is because the ice sheet has complex terrain and harsh climate, making it inconvenient for large-scale military operations.

This reason sounds somewhat vague.

But on second thought, it's not entirely without merit.

The Orks spores are hidden in every inch of the soil, making it impossible to completely eradicate them.

Instead of expending a huge force to clear out the Ice Plains, it would be more cost-effective to hold the Forbidden Wall and confine the Orks deep within the Ice Plains.

Dominic put down the Dataslate and remained silent for a long time.

He looked at Lynn, and most of the disdain in his eyes had disappeared.

He had initially assumed that the governor of this remote planet, like the corrupt and incompetent insects he had encountered before, was nothing more than a sob story, a tool for self-enrichment.

But unexpectedly, he turned out to be a real hero.

A hero who single-handedly turned the tide and saved the entire planet.

"Could it be... that he is truly the Emperor's chosen one?" Dominic murmured to himself.
