The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

2269. Two halves of gold coins (Part 1)

"Zane Consortium?" Qi La walked aside, took a glass of wine from the hands of a slave attendant, and took a sip. "They are wholeheartedly running their own waste spacecraft recycling business, and they are all on the outer ring planets. District, what does it have to do with us?”

"That's their superficial business. In fact, the Zane Consortium has been very active at the underworld level in recent years. You just haven't been exposed to this aspect of business." Dryden Vos's tone gradually darkened, "They In recent years, my hands have been stretched longer and longer, including spices, weapons, smuggling, and many things."

"But how can they form an alliance with us in the Outer Ring Star Region?" Qi La frowned.

"Because of this, they need our business network in the inner ring and core circle." Dryden Voss said: "Now it is said that Jabba the Hutt and Black Sun have formed an alliance with them, and they seem to be planning to do something Something big.”

"Then what should we do? Reject him?" Qi La asked. She never thought that Dryden Voss would come to her to tell her something that was related to the future of the entire gang.

Although she has become a captain of the Bloody Dawn, there are at least 10 people above her in the Bloody Dawn, all of whom are boss-level figures in charge of business in a large sector.

"You go talk to the people from the Zane Consortium first and find out what they have to say, and then I can make a decision." Dryden Voss said calmly.

Qi La frowned, it seemed like she was going to ask for directions by throwing stones? Even if they disagree, it's not him, Dryden Voss, who dies anyway.

As if he saw her concerns, Dryden Voss said: "You don't have to worry, as long as you refuse them without knowing it, they won't do anything to you. Besides, you are very charming. I still have this matter. For other arrangements, just go ahead.”

Qi La had no choice but to nod, "Okay, I will try to be cautious in contacting them."

Dryden Voss didn't say much and waved his hand to indicate that she could leave.

After Qi La left, Dryden Voss murmured to himself: "Tang Xiao is right, it is indeed Darth Maul who came to the door...bastard..."

He kept pacing in place, looking very agitated.

Because a very obvious situation is that, based on what Darth Maul did with the Pike gang and Black Sun, he killed people to establish his authority. Moreover, even if he expresses his willingness to join Darth Maul, for the sake of safety, Darth Maul's best choice is to kill him and support someone else.

Darth Maul was once a Sith Lord. If he wanted to kill someone, there was a high probability that he would not be able to escape. Unless you have thousands of troops to protect yourself. But Dryden Voss was just a gang leader. The gang's thugs could collect protection fees, but it was impossible to really risk his life.

Therefore, whether he agrees or not, the outcome of death is already in front of him. At present, he can only let Qi La deal with it first, and then hide himself.

But... maybe there are other ways now. Dryden Voss began to think in another direction - the Sakoria Big Three.

More than ten years ago, Tang Xiao came to the planet Corellia and told him and Mrs. Vixi a story about the Midpoint Station. According to this story, the Midpoint Station is actually a super weapon built by the Killik swarm that can emit super gravitational waves and move any star within the galaxy. And when the midpoint station is fully powered, even the black hole can move!

In order to find the secret of this super weapon, Dryden Voss has been trying to get in touch with the three Sakoria giants based on Tang Xiao's prompts.

The Sacorian Triumvirate is an extremely secretive organization in the Corellian trade world. It has a strong influence on the Corellian galaxy and more than 1,000 galaxies involved in a long galaxy corridor. . If Corellian Engineering Company is the apparent king of the Corellian trade world, the Sacorian Big Three are the overlords in the dark.

The most important thing is that according to Tang Xiao's tips, the three Sakoria giants are also studying the midpoint station.

Now, although there is no progress in the matter at the midpoint station, Bloody Dawn has successfully connected with the three giants of Sakoria. So now, if we turn to them for help, there may be a way to compete with the Zane Consortium.

Although Tang Xiao would definitely help him, Tang Xiao couldn't get involved in this matter, and the Dawn Principality couldn't reach out to the inner circle at all. So in the final analysis, the only one he can rely on is himself.

Dryden Voss thought for a while, then turned around and gave instructions. His luxury spaceship, the Morning Light, immediately ignited and took off, heading towards outer space.

Not far from the ground, Qi La, who was riding a hover motorcycle, turned back and looked at the Morning Light spacecraft rising into the sky with a stern look.

She couldn't help but subconsciously put her hand on the ancient gold coin hanging on her chest and rubbed it gently, as if this thing could give her strength. More than ten years ago, when the Clone Wars were raging, she and her partner Han Solo, who were still struggling to survive in the dark alleyways of the planet Corellia, met the man who changed their lives. people.

At that time, she and Han Solo stole the mysterious man's wallet and found a large amount of credit ingots and a metal hilt. Then they were targeted by another group of gangsters, and the metal hilt suddenly started up by itself, and it turned out to be a lightsaber! Then the lightsaber controlled Qila's body and took her to easily kill those gangsters.

This was also the first time Qila killed someone in her life.

The man told Qila to remember this feeling, the feeling of killing... Qila remembered it, and countless times after that, even if she faced a dangerous situation, she did not change her face and faced it bravely.

At the same time, the man gave Qila and Han Solo a half gold coin each. He told Qila that if the two halves of the gold coin were combined into one, he would fulfill one wish of Qila and them.

Now it seems that this condition is a trap. Because it means that she and Han Solo can only fulfill one wish. This also means that if they want to break free from the cage of Corellia, this gold coin can only save one of them.

Qila had no doubt that the man would do so. For example, if she asked for a spaceship, the man would definitely give them a single-person spaceship and forbid the other person to ride.

The man seemed to expect that the gold coin would allow the two of them to kill each other and enjoy it. Qila and Han Solo swore that they would never let him do so!

Therefore, Qila and Han Solo just put away their respective half gold coins and hung them around their necks.
