The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

1494. The End of the Jedi Order (3)

Numerous clone troopers formed a phalanx and surrounded the Jedi Temple.

Anakin-Skywalker was wearing a black cloak with a gloomy face, leading the army up the steps of the main entrance of the temple step by step.

On both sides of the main entrance of the Jedi Temple, the sculptures of the Jedi sages stand majestically, solemnly and solemnly. The huge gates that are hundreds of meters high also demonstrate the majesty and heritage of the Jedi Order for tens of thousands of years.

But now, the most sacred place in the entire galaxy has finally been trampled on!

The current leader of the Jedi Order, Shak Ti, stood at the door. Although she was so small in front of the 100,000 army, she still stood tall and resisted the army of the Galactic Republic with her own strength.

However, behind her was the gigantic Jedi Temple, the thick buildings and sculptures, but made her thin body full of weight.

"Anakin-Skywalker! You've finally come this far... I can't imagine that this is you!" Shak-Ti looked at Anakin and asked sharply.

"The era of the Jedi Order is over! Put down your resistance and open the library! Accept the interrogation of the Republic!" Anakin Skywalker said directly.

"We used to trust you so much and nurtured you, but is this the graduation answer sheet you gave us? Are you so ignorant?" Shak-ti shook her head in pain, "You are the chosen one , you are a Jedi Knight! You are supposed to protect all of this, and you should not be a tool of Palpatine's personal ambition! He is still a Sith..."

"It's you who didn't understand the truth! Master Shaq Ti! The Jedi Order has become an obstacle to the Galactic Republic. Your existence can only lead the Republic to the abyss!" Anakin Skywalker said.

"You have fallen into the dark side, Anakin. This shouldn't have happened..." Shak-Ti closed her eyes, her tone full of sadness, "But... the Jedi Order, will never yield to the darkness! "

Her eyes opened suddenly, and there seemed to be an extremely powerful light side force brewing in her unwavering eyes.

Swish! ! The blue lightsaber in Shak Ti's hand instantly opened! She slowly made a sword gesture.

Wow~~~! The clone troopers behind Anakin-Skywalker raised their weapons in unison.

"Resistance is useless, Master Shak-Ti." Anakin Skywalker said coldly.

"I have already said that the Jedi Order will never surrender to the dark side! And now, the Galactic Republic ruled by darkness is our enemy!" Shak-Ti was extremely firm.

Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! ! ! !

Inside the originally dark temple behind Master Shak-ti, countless dots of light suddenly lit up! It is the light of countless lightsabers!

The light of these lightsabers almost illuminated the dark temple, and under the colorful lights, the resolute faces of hundreds of Jedi knights and Jedi apprentices were revealed.

Jedi Order, never surrender!

"Attack, shoot to kill." Anakin Skywalker gritted his teeth and gave the final order.

Before the words fell, the clone soldier behind him pulled the trigger at the same time!

Countless blaster beams were launched! It was densely packed like raindrops, shooting towards the Jedi Temple non-stop!

At the same time, the Jedi Knights also waved their lightsabers to resist the countless blaster rifle attacks. The rebounded blaster beams flew around, some hit the walls around the interior of the Jedi Temple, and some bounced back and hit the clones. on the soldiers.

For a time, the entire periphery of the Jedi Temple was covered by countless blast energy beams!

The 100,000-strong clone army also launched an attack from several other directions at the same time! They took off in a LAAT/I assault transport and forced a landing above the Jedi Temple.

The top of the trapezoidal main body of the Jedi Temple also suddenly entered into a chaotic battle. The Jedi Knights guarded the entrances of the five towers without moving an inch!

A Jedi Master stood at the gate of the tower, facing hundreds of clone troopers. These soldiers showed no mercy, surrounded him in a fan shape, and never let go of the trigger finger!

The explosive energy was launched like raindrops, even if the master swung the lightsaber to the extreme, he couldn't resist it! In the end, there was a gap in his defensive circle, and an extremely scorching blast energy beam instantly hit his chest! A violent explosion immediately blasted his chest into a bloody mess! Taking advantage of this gap, more blast energy beams exploded on him!

After the unyielding body of the Jedi Master fell, more clone troopers stepped on his body and entered the interior of the Jedi Temple.

Kill anyone you see!

...

"No! Anakin cut off the communication!" In the Capitol, Padmé Amidala looked at the cut off communication, his face full of sadness.

There are now about a dozen congressmen gathered in Padmé Amidala's office. On the one hand, they came to visit Padmé who was frightened and fainted before, and on the other hand, they also came to discuss matters.

They are all councilors with Bail Organa and Padmé Amidala at their core, loyal to the Galactic Republic, loyal to democracy, and they have always opposed Palpatine's dictatorship.

"Now the army of the Republic is hunting down Jedi knights everywhere! The news of Jedi knight treason has spread throughout the entire Galactic Republic!" Standing by the side is Councilor Mon Mothma, she said worriedly, " However, what we need to worry about most is that Palpatine has not passed the parliament at all! He is making his dictatorship a reality."

Mon-Mothma is a very young-looking human female, about 28 years old. She has short, clean hair, and although she is young, she looks dignified and approachable.

She is the ruling class of the planet Chandrila, her mother is the governor of the planet, and her father is the arbitrator of the Supreme Court of the planet. Because of this family status, she was able to run for election and become a member of the Bormea ​​star area. represent.

However, such a family background did not make her a corrupt and extravagant nobleman, but under the influence of her father, she became a very enlightened member of parliament.

She is sympathetic to people's feelings and concerned about people's livelihood. Even after the outbreak of war, she has always been committed to calling for peace and conducting negotiations. And now, she is also one of the congressmen who is very concerned about the gradual loss of power in Palpatine's hands.

Also because of her clear political views, she has maintained a good relationship with Padmé Amidala and Bail Organa, and has won the trust of the other party.

By the way, in the original plot, she is the creator of the rebel army. It was her persistence and hard work that allowed the rebel army to survive the most difficult time, and finally overthrew the extremely powerful Galactic Empire.
