The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

2389, Alexia vs. Hydra

Alexia-Ashford glanced at the ice sculpture and sneered: "You brought these rubbish here just to waste my time?"

Hydra was still expressionless. She looked at Alexia and said seriously: "Their death allowed me to see your ability to some extent. This is a worthy death."

"Oh... In this case, I admire you a little bit." Alexia smiled slightly, bent down and touched her chest, and performed a noble salute, "Dawn Kingdom, Ashford Family, second daughter, Alexia-Ashford."

Hydra frowned slightly, but still replied: "Hydra, Imperial Tribunal, Grand Judge..."

Bang! ! !

Before Hydra finished speaking, Alexia had already flashed in front of her and punched her hard! Hydra had foreseen that an ice wall was blocking in front of him. This punch directly smashed the one-meter-thick ice wall, and countless ice fragments flew around like bullets, but it was no longer a threat to Hydra.

"You should know that such a surprise attack is meaningless for those who are sensitive to the Force." Hydra said lightly, "When you had this idea, I already knew it."

"This is very interesting." Alexia narrowed her eyes slightly, and then her figure disappeared in an instant, and suddenly flashed in front of Hydra, and countless fists fell on her head!

After the perfect fusion of the T-Veronica virus, Alexia's physical fitness is even more terrifying than most advanced robots! She was able to kill an Imperial Inquisitor with one punch before, and completely shattered all the bones in his body! Such power is simply unimaginable for ordinary people.

However, facing such an attack, Hydra was not afraid at all. She kept retreating, always avoiding Alexia's attack at the right position. Every fatal blow was just a hair's breadth away, and it didn't even touch the corner of her clothes.

But Alexia didn't care at all. She attacked madly, punching and kicking madly. Her attack was not just a mess. As a genius, she had already learned various fighting skills. She even asked the priestess Depa-Biraba for a few days about the skills of Iron Hand Kung Fu when she visited her planet.

Facing those who are sensitive to the Force, Alexia will not fall into any disadvantage except that she cannot predict.

Even those who are not strong enough in the Force, in front of her super fast speed and super strong power, prediction is useless! Just like the imperial judges who were beaten to death by her just now.

But this does not apply to Hydra!

She dodged every attack from Alexia calmly. Just before the next attack came, her eyes were stern, and she suddenly raised her hand and waved it. Endless ice spread around her. At this moment, Alexia stepped on the ground just to gain leverage!

Her left foot wrapped in mutant armor was completely frozen by the ice. At the same time, the Hydra raised its hand and pushed Alexia's chest hard.

Alexia was immediately frozen by the extremely cold ice, and the whole person turned into an ice sculpture in a few seconds!

"You should understand that no matter how strong your power is, the Force is the natural chasm between you and me that can never be closed." The Hydra said coldly. She raised her white jade-like fingers and gently tapped the forehead of the ice sculpture.

However... the shattering that should have occurred did not occur!

The Hydra almost jumped back at the same time. At this moment, an endless flame suddenly gushed out, completely engulfing the space around Alexia! Even the extremely cold ice could not stop it and melted away. The entire incubator was suddenly shrouded in countless white mists, and it was almost pitch dark!

There were dense sounds coming from all around, and no one knew what it was. But in the Hydra's perception, it foresaw extreme danger!

She did not pause at all and immediately dodged backwards. Almost at the same time, an extremely sharp claw passed directly from less than two centimeters in front of her! If it were not for the prediction of the Force, this claw would have killed her directly!

There was still nothing to see around, but in the Hydra's perception, there were dozens of targets that threatened her! Not only around, but even in the air!

And Alexia seemed to hide herself among these targets, and I didn't know which one was her real body.

Suddenly, those dozens of targets all moved almost at the same time! They swooped down like lightning and grabbed directly from every direction!

Such an attack could no longer be dodged, and the Hydra immediately squatted down. A layer of extremely hard ice wall suddenly appeared around her body, completely covering her. There was a light sound of puff, puff, and those things densely pierced the ice wall.

The moment they were blocked by the ice wall, two blood-red sword lights instantly swung up!

Everything around was instantly chopped into pieces by two lightsabers, one long and one short! Countless broken chelicerae, broken claws, cicada wings, and shells fell from mid-air. These things were all flying insects!

Bang! ! ! In an instant, the Hydra was hit hard by Alexia's fist. The opponent's speed was too fast. Even if it had foreseen it, the Hydra only had time to cover its wrist with a layer of ice armor to block the attack! She was hit and flew backwards.

With a click, her left forearm twisted and fractured.

The power of this punch was so great that the strong wind that erupted even completely blew away the surrounding white mist!

However, the scene of hitting the wall of the incubator chamber did not happen. The body of the Hydra was just strangely attached to the wall and then floated down.

Looking at her broken left hand expressionlessly, the Hydra raised her hand to restore the broken arm. With a light click, even her expression that had been frozen for thousands of years was a little distorted, and it was obvious that she was in extreme pain. But then, her left arm was completely frozen, and the ice replaced the structure of the left arm supported by the bones, allowing her to regain her mobility.

However, the price is that after returning this time, her left arm will inevitably be frozen and necrotic, and she can only be amputated.

"The Force? Precognition?" Alexia asked sarcastically, looking at the person standing on the other side of the incubator, "Why didn't I notice it?"

"You can use the Iron Hand Kung Fu." Hydra said, "Sure enough, you are not an ordinary mutant mother."

"Who gave you the illusion that I am ordinary?" Alexia tilted her head and sneered.

"It's my fault." Hydra nodded seriously.

Then, she bowed slightly, crossed her two lightsabers in front of her chest, and made a strange sword gesture.

If it was someone like the priestess who was familiar with the lightsaber swordsmanship of the Jedi Knights again, then she would definitely recognize it immediately. This is the fifth style of lightsaber swordsmanship, Xien/Djem-Suo! There is no doubt that Hydra was a Jedi Knight before he fell to the dark side and became the Grand Inquisitor, and it is very likely that he was even a Jedi Master!

The attacking and defending Xien/Djem-Saw is a sword technique that combines the two into one. It is also the most difficult sword technique to master. The Jedi who can use this sword technique are either those who are ambitious but have low skills, or the peerless genius like Anakin Skywalker!

"Since it is your fault, then eat the fruit of the mistake obediently!" Alexia's feet suddenly exploded, and she shot like a bullet. With her movements, endless flames ignited around her! On her fists, there was also a hot and scorching fire!

However, in the face of such a powerful attack, the Hydra did not retreat but advanced. She flashed forward and passed by Alexia in an instant, avoiding all attacks.

Alexia's movements were extremely fast, and she kept punching, but none of them could hit the Hydra at all. The countless flames she released seemed to be caught by an invisible hand at this moment, and were driven by the lightsaber to rotate and tear continuously, and finally completely extinguished and disappeared without a trace.

However, Alexia's physical fitness has already exceeded the limit of ordinary people by many times. She is far superior to Hydra in both speed and strength. If the latter had not predicted the attack direction through the foresight of the Force, it would have been beaten into a pulp.

Bang! ! Alexia finally found that Hydra's movements had slowed down. She rushed forward and punched Hydra directly, hitting the ice armor that appeared on her arm in an instant. With a muffled sound... countless flesh and blood scattered everywhere!

However, it was not the body of Hydra that was shattered, but Alexia's left fist that was supposed to be indestructible and could even destroy tanks! !

At this moment, the lightsaber of Hydra had already pierced straight at her! This is a trap! Alexia had no time to dodge and was pierced through the chest by a sword!

The extremely high temperature of the lightsaber burned Alexia's body, causing her to wail in pain. She frantically vibrated her wings and flew to the air in the incubator. Then, a tentacle stretched out from the incubator and connected directly to her back, and began to inject her with high-concentration nutrients and the Veronica virus.

Alexia breathed a sigh of relief, raised her hand to look at her left arm that had lost its palm, and then raised her right hand to look at it. I didn't know when, but countless tiny wounds were cut on her right fist by the lightsaber! These wounds destroyed the structure of her fist, turning her fist into a useless straw bag without her knowing it.

Shame and anger twisted Alexia's expression. The new left hand began to grow and take shape visibly. She looked at her right hand that had not changed, and noticed that there was a weak force that always prevented the wound from healing. The fire of anger ignited in Alexia's eyes. She opened her mouth and actually tore off her right palm!

Then, the new right hand began to grow gradually.

Seeing this, Hydra did not stop. She suddenly jumped up and ran along the cavity wall. Every time she stepped, an extremely cold wave spread, firmly fixing her feet on the cavity wall. The moment she raised her feet, the ice instantly disintegrated.

Such a meticulous force operation actually allowed her to move on the cavity wall and ceiling!

While Alexia's left and right hands had not yet grown, Hydra's two lightsabers were fully exerted. The fifth sword method, Xien/Djem-So, was extremely skilled. The two lightsabers were like two venomous snakes!

Alexia, who was caught in the gap, kept retreating, but she could not get rid of it. At this time, countless terrible mutant monsters crawled out of the cavity in the incubator. These monsters fearlessly pounced on Hydra to buy time for Alexia.

Swish! The cavity connecting to Alexia's back was cut off by a sword, and countless nutrients and viral substances gushed out. Alexia's face changed again, and she had to continue to retreat.

Hundreds of mutant creatures rushed over again, and the vast incubation room suddenly became crowded. These mutant creatures crowded together and rushed towards Hydra. But it was of no use at all! Hydra has become serious, and those mutated creatures cannot get close to her at all. The two lightsabers in her hand, one long and one short, are swung at high speed like strong winds, bringing up bursts of extremely cold ice wind!

All mutant monsters that came close to her were cut into pieces, frozen into ice cubes, and then crushed into powder! Literally reduced to ashes!

This ice storm mixed with countless flesh and blood was approaching Alexia unstoppably, and Alexia had no way to retreat.

After losing the opportunity, she finally began to face the desperate situation faced by all those who face Force-sensitive people such as Jedi Knights - foreseeable attacks, unavoidable; foreseeable defenses, impeccable; blazing lightsabers, Indestructible!

No one can defeat such a combination. Unless...with the same power!

Alexia once again released a large sea of ​​fire to stop the Hydra, but when she spilled her burning blood, she suddenly discovered something horrifying!

The flame was extinguished almost instantly! !

Alexia raised her hands in disbelief, only to find that her body had been covered with a layer of frost without knowing it! She was horrified and looked up at Hydra, but the cold and charming woman who always had an expressionless face had stopped moving and did not pursue the victory. Instead, she stood there and looked back calmly, and said lightly: "It's over. "

At this moment, if you look from the outside, you can find that more than half of the entire huge nest has been frozen! The frozen mother's nest remained motionless, the rhythmic squirming, the continuous delivery of nutrients, and the endless hatching of monsters, all stopped! !

"You..." Alexia was stunned. At this moment, something called 'fear' appeared deep in her heart!

Hydra was expressionless and said calmly: "If you think that the use of the Force is only a few seconds of prediction, then you are completely wrong. The Force can see far more than you think. Farther away. And I... was just laying out my plans from the moment I entered this nest."

She easily carried two lightsabers and came closer step by step. "I planted frozen seeds in every place I passed. When the time is right, they will all explode. Then..."

The cranked lightsaber that originally belonged to Count Dooku was raised high, facing Alexia who was already moving slowly, "Accept death...peacefully..."

In the sky above the Brood, a Victory II-class Star Destroyer was turning a turret and starting to aim in the direction of the Brood.

At this moment, the lightsaber in Hydra's hand fell instantly!

At the same time, this Star Destroyer opened fire! (End of chapter)
