The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

Chapter 1570 Master of Darkness——Windu

1570. Master of Darkness——Windu

When Mace Windu drove his fighter back to his fleet flagship, the Hunter-class battlecruiser Endurance, he was almost shot down by his own anti-aircraft fire.

Although the fire control system and the identification friend or foe device are still working, but the communication is lost, the nervous turret operator will still subconsciously fire on every target that appears on the radar.

You know, this is a huge battlefield with a battlefield range of more than 200,000 kilometers. Under such a scale, a fighter jet is really as small as a grain of sand in the sea. And under normal circumstances, nothing can be seen visually on the interstellar battlefield, even if you want to see a large battleship, it is not easy.

In fact, after the communication system was cut off, the hardest-hit area among the main fleet of the Second Galaxy Army was their fighter formation!

The size of the fighter jets is too small to install large and advanced radar systems and communication systems. Many times, they need their own motherships to command and guide, but now the communication has been cut off, and all fighter jets have become headless chickens. .

In intuitive terms, after the communication is cut off, the pilot of every fighter will find himself in the vast space, surrounded by darkness, with sporadic light spots flickering from time to time, and you don’t even know whether these light spots are stars or A capital ship has just been blown up.

The most terrible thing is that the turbo laser beams and missiles flying from nowhere, it is impossible to defend against it! And there is a high probability that these things are the firepower fired by their own warships.

If the communication system is normal, the communication will continue to command, and sometimes send data directly to the navigation robot. For example, which area our battleship is covering with firepower, where the main gun is firing, and in which direction the enemy fighter is... All the information is clear at a glance and can be seen.

But now, without these data, the fighter pilots had no choice but to fly towards the place where there is a spaceship - the more courageous ones flew towards the enemy warship, wanting to go all out; . And the closer to these warships, the easier it is to be hit by one's own or the opponent's firepower.

Because every capital ship is surrounded by countless firepower, whether it is fired to hit others, or fired by others to hit itself.

In the previous battle, the Second Galaxy Army took off a total of more than 5,000 fighter jets, and among these fighter jets, no more than one-tenth of them were able to return to their mothership safely! And until the communication is restored, they dare not take off more fighter jets.

As a result, most of the 20,000 fighter jets carried by the main fleet of the Second Galaxy Army became more fragments that flew out when the hunter-class battlecruisers they parked were blown up.

Mace Windu didn't wait for his fighter to stop, jumped directly, and then rushed to the bridge quickly.

However, what he saw inside the bridge was not as busy as he imagined, and the military was in order. On the contrary, including the fleet commander Admiral Sopnos, officers and staff officers at all levels were all sitting in their seats with their heads downcast.

"You guys! What the hell are you doing!" Mace Windu was furious. He walked up in two steps and waved his hands. A wave of force immediately blew these decadent officers to their knees. "The battle of the entire fleet is in your hands. Look what you guys are doing now!!"

"It's useless...it's useless..." Sopnos sat up from the ground, and said dejectedly: "The communication has been cut off, we can't do anything, we can only watch Severance-Tan Our fleet is being wiped out bit by bit... Hehehehe, we should be honored to lose to Severance Tann, right? Master Windu..."

The anger in Windu's heart could not be increased. When he raised his hand and grabbed Sopnos, he directly grabbed Sopnos' neck and lifted him up out of thin air. "Second Galaxy Army, there is no waste like you!!"

However, Sopnos was already disheartened. He struggled instinctively, but still said in his mouth, "Master Windu...the second ship of the Plague is on the way, give up, you can't win..."

"Disturbing the morale of the army! Death penalty!" Mace Windu gradually clenched his hand, and a faint golden light appeared in his intact eye.

With a click, Sopnos's neck bone made a crisp sound, and then his whole body slumped, and there was no more sound.

At this moment, on the entire bridge, everyone looked at Mace Windu with fear in their eyes. They didn't look like they were looking at the eyes of a once respected Jedi Master. On the contrary, what they seemed to see was just a bloodthirsty beast.

The force of the dark side erupted from Mace Windu. The moment he killed Sopnos, he had completely given up his belief in light.

Mace Windu has been wandering between darkness and light since he was seriously injured by the dead angel and Depa Birabba on the planet Harunkar and even paralyzed at a high position all over the body. He can only regain his mobility through mechanical transformation.

Once, his belief in light was extremely firm, and no matter how tempting he was, he could not waver at all. That's why he was able to use the Wapad swordsmanship - a swordsmanship that used the emotions of the dark side to strengthen the power of the swordsmanship, but never let the dark side affect his heart.

People who practice Vapad, whether it is Depa Birabha or Sola Balk, have also fallen into the dark side now, only Mace Windu still sticks to the light, and his inner firmness can be seen.

However, the Speaker of the Republic, Sheev Palpatine, was revealed to be the Sith Lord Darth Sidious, information that nearly destroyed his faith. As the person with the deepest political entanglement with the Galactic Republic among the Jedi Order, Mace Windu suffered a greater blow than others imagined.

When he thought that the speaker he had served and loyal to turned out to be a disgusting Sith Lord, this made him absolutely unacceptable.

After that, the continuous failure of the front line made his behavior gradually go to extremes. In the first few orbital bombings, the reason why several Jedi masters accompanying the army agreed to sign was actually his approval behind his back.

From then on, although he is still the guardian of the light side, he has inevitably moved closer and closer to the dark side. He is willing to accept Master Ki-Adi-Mundi, who has fallen into the dark side, as his right and left hand to jointly command the fleet of the Second Galaxy Army. Such an approach was originally impossible for him who was once jealous.

After that, there was a break between him and Master Yoda. Master Yoda failed to assassinate Palpatine alone, and then disappeared, followed by the betrayal of Anakin-Skywalker and Order 66.

The complete destruction of the Jedi Order became the last straw that broke the camel's back.

And at this moment, the disastrous defeat of the Second Galaxy Army finally made it all happen—Dark Jedi Master, Mace Windu!

How firm his belief in the bright side is, how fast his fall is at this moment.

Standing in the center of the bridge, Mace Windu kicked Sopnos' body to the corner, and swept across the surrounding officers with golden eyes, and said coldly: "Go back to your post! I fight to the last man!"
