The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

1388: mask

The capital of the planet Onderon, Izzy City.

Central Business Building, or the former Central Commercial Building. Now this building with a height of more than 800 meters has completely collapsed, becoming a huge ruin covering an area of ​​more than one kilometer, completely cutting off several surrounding blocks including the main road!

It is impossible for ordinary vehicles to pass through here now. If you walk a little bit among the ruins, it will take at least an hour to pass through here. So, the only options are hovercars or spaceships.

However, now that the Galactic Republic has mastered the air supremacy, whether these flying things can pass is up to them.

Surrounding the ruins, screams, wailing, and crying can be heard endlessly. Countless people were hit, injured, or killed by the debris caused by the collapse of the huge building. Digging among the ruins, trying to dig out their relatives and friends buried in it.

But it's impossible...

Among the ruins, you can see the exposed stumps and broken arms everywhere, and you can also see dead gray hands reaching out to the sky, as if trying to grab the little bit of life when the building collapsed.

This is one of the busiest neighborhoods in the city. When General Kalani issued martial law, a large number of civilians were locked inside and dared not come out. Now, this building was directly blown up!

The casualties caused cannot be counted.

In the sky, a large group of Galactic Republic fighter jets passed by at low altitude. The V-19 light fighters covered the ARC-170 heavy fighters and accurately fired missiles and blast energy beams, pulling out all the surrounding firepower points!

The violent explosion further increased the casualties in the surrounding area. Immediately afterwards, one CSS-1 Republic-class shuttle plane after another landed, the hatch door opened, and a large number of Republic soldiers in gray uniforms ran out quickly, and then rushed out without stopping. Rush towards the core of the city.

As they advanced, more intensive gunshots and explosions came from the core direction.

The Galactic Republic launched a surprise attack directly in the city core! At this moment, the Onderon army, including their robot army, was all transferred to the outskirts of the city to resist the landing and advance of the Republic's main force. Now that the main roads are cut off by collapsed buildings, they don't even have the chance to return to help. No!

...

The communicator in the hands of Anakin Skywalker, who had just finished the battle meeting, rang again, and Stella Gerrera's almost crazy voice came, "You must give me an explanation!! Jedi Knights!! What did you do? What?! What the hell did you guys do?! Do you know that this will cause serious civilian casualties!! I tried my best to save every single civilian, but you killed tens of thousands of people with one word!!! WHY!! Is this the answer you gave me? Jedi Knight!!"

Anakin-Skywalker's complexion was also not very good-looking, he blurted out and wanted to apologize, "I'm sorry..."

But the next words were forcefully choked back by him. He is a Jedi Knight and also the commander of this huge army. It is impossible for him to say something like an apology.

However, even if there are thousands of reasons, a massacre is a massacre. He can completely push this matter to Tarkin, to Saw Gerrera, but will it work? This will only make Stella Gerrera look down on him even more.

Therefore, he could only suppress the thoughts in his heart as much as possible, and said expressionlessly: "Now the separatist army has been blocked on the outskirts of the city, we can directly attack the Temple of Unity, and the war will end soon."

"Ah... yes, the war will end soon, very soon." Stella Gerrera's voice trembled, and Anakin could even imagine that the steadfast leader of the rebel army had tears in his eyes and his face was full of tears. With a scowling look, "This is your plan...a good plan!"

Anakin-Skywalker took a deep breath and said: "End the war as soon as possible, and no one will die. Maybe I did cause serious casualties, but as long as the war can end, there is still a chance to make up for everything."

"Are you using human life as a bargaining chip to calculate which is more important? Jedi Knight." A somewhat deep female voice suddenly came from the communication, and Anakin remembered that it was the voice of the masked woman next to Stella .

Stella Gerrera also said: "You don't understand at all! I should have known... When you wanted to train us and use us to overthrow the separatist forces on the planet, when you saw that the situation was not good and abandoned us and left At that time, when you came again with a million troops, I should know... You don’t understand the people of Planet Onderon at all! You don’t understand! You don’t care!”

"I'm trying my best to help you!" Anakin raised his voice, and he shouted hysterically: "Onderon is the inner ring planet! The inner ring! Yet you are here to produce giant battleships Cruiser!! You should have known that the Republic could not give up here! The army of the Republic will arrive sooner or later! Then why are you still obsessed with it!!??"

"You should ask why Sanji Rush's coup was successful!! You should ask why the old King Dundup is so capable and still step down!! You should ask why the people of Onderon hate so much The Galactic Republic!! You didn’t! You were only thinking about the Republic! And you never cared about what tens of millions of people on our planet want!!” Stella Gerrera was also roaring.

"This is war!! You..." Before Anakin Skywalker finished speaking, a picture flashed in his mind, and then he realized a terrible fact——

mask!

That's right, a mask! !

that woman! The woman standing next to Stella Gerrera! She's wearing a really gorgeous mask! At that time, he felt that this mask seemed familiar, but now, he finally remembered it!

Tibring Planet! Master Depa-Bilaba!

Master Depa-Biraba disappeared for a long time after the planet Harunkar fell to the dark side, and when she reappeared, it was in the coup d'état of the Naish-Tibu on the planet Tibulin. At that time, she also wore a very gorgeous mask on her face, and it was Master Windu who recognized her figure at that time!

Although that mask was completely different from that of the woman next to Stella, its style was similar.

That is to say, that woman is related to Master Depa-Bilaba? If this is the case, doesn't it mean that that woman, like Depa Bilaba, is a fallen Jedi Knight? !

Anakin immediately thought of another frightening fact - Stella Grera, has colluded with the separatism?
