The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

2390. The Fall of Fang Duo

When Alexia Ashford's brood was raided by the Inquisition, the commander of the Dawn Kingdom's landing army in this area immediately dispatched troops to surround the brood.

This raid by the Tribunal was indeed somewhat unexpected by the Kingdom of Dawn’s military command and intelligence agencies.

In fact, the Inquisition's hostilities against the Kingdom of Dawn had been going on for a year or two before the war began. There are two major magistrate organizations in the Galactic Empire. The Tribunal is still searching for Jedi Knights across the galaxy, while the functions of the Tribunal have gradually shifted to deal specifically with the Kingdom of Dawn.

Prior to this, the main mode of action of the Tribunal was still based on rear infiltration, mainly assassinating key personnel, collecting important intelligence, etc.

For example, many senior officials, such as the Deputy Minister of Administration of the Harvin Sector and the Commander of the Indupal Planet Defense Force of the Sethwenna Sector, were brutally murdered by the Inquisition.

The Kingdom of Dawn was also tit for tat, and the young talents of the Twilight Covenant attacked one after another, blocking the actions of the Tribunal. Not only that, the National Security Agency has also invested a lot of force in confronting the tribunal.

At the same time, the Military Intelligence Department also invested many ghost agents to infiltrate and assassinate senior officials of the Galactic Empire and undermine the military organization, which was equally effective.

However, such actions and games are basically conducted behind enemy lines. As for the front line, it is not the stage for them to perform.

The fundamental reason is that the Galactic Empire has long been different from the Galactic Republic period when it was supported by the Jedi Order. The current Galactic Empire does not control many dark side Force-sensitive people, and even fewer can be used in combat. And most of them were organized by Darth Sidious for his own dark side research.

There are also very few Force-sensitive people in the Kingdom of Dawn. Most of the hundreds of students in the Twilight Covenant are not yet adults. Team Sky and Team Ogus, who are now able to go out to perform missions, are already the best among them.

Therefore, both sides rarely use Force-sensitives on the front lines. Because in fact, on the frontline battlefields where artillery fire is raging, Force-sensitive people often die on the spot because they are affected by the flames of war and fail to use their own advantages.

For example, if a Force-sensitive person is on an Imperial-class Star Destroyer, and then the Star Destroyer is chased and directly destroyed by the Dawn Kingdom's Apocalypse-class battleship, then the Force-sensitive person may not survive. Even if he flies a fighter jet into battle in advance, if he gets caught in the firepower net of several guard-class air defense destroyers, he will still be dead.

Therefore, the High Command of the Kingdom of Dawn lacked a plan for the Galactic Empire to directly use powerful Force-sensitive people to launch a surprise attack.

For example, this time a direct raid on Alexia's nest would lead to death even for ordinary Force-sensitive people. Only the most powerful Jedi or Sith Lords can have the opportunity to raid the Fangdo planet under the heavy siege of the second task force, and then break through countless air defense firepower nets to reach the mother nest.

Then he rushed to Alexia under the guard of countless mutant creatures in the brood. Then, he was able to defeat Alexia Ashford, who was at least a top Jedi master level, and had the ability to kill her.

I'm afraid I can count such existences on one hand in the galaxy.

However, the Galactic Empire not only sent existences of this level, but also sent them directly to the front line!

This can only explain one problem - the war situation on Fangduo Planet makes the Galactic Empire feel extremely threatened. In other words, they were impatient.

The Kingdom of Dawn did not have a plan to deal with the invasion of a top powerhouse like Hydra, so Hydra's raid was successful...

?

In the sky outside the Brood, three Victory II-class Star Destroyers, three Steadfast-class cruisers and seven Double-Blade electronic warfare light cruisers completely blocked the sky of the Brood. Several formations of Phantom fighters and Banshee fighters were hovering in the sky, waiting for opportunities to move.

On the ground, more than 20,000 B-1 combat robots and more than 1,000 DW-1 dwarf spider combat machines were urgently dispatched specifically to fight in the complex and narrow environment of the Mother's Nest.

These are all defense forces urgently deployed by the combat commander. Although they failed to intercept the invasion of Hydra, they at least needed to do so to prevent the intruders from escaping.

However, they did not dare to attack directly because they did not know the fighting situation inside the brood. In the initial communication, Alexia Ashford also told the commander that there was no need to worry about her, she had enough power to kill the intruder.

As the Queen of the Brood, Alexia possesses the power of the entire Brood. In addition, she has become a perfect fusion of the T-Veronica virus, and she actually has the power of the Force. With such multi-faceted blessings, Alexia Ashford has every reason to believe that she is capable of destroying any intruders.

Therefore, in order to prevent the Brood's Nest from being destroyed, the fleets and armies assembled around it all chose to stay put and avoid unnecessary damage to the Brood's Nest caused by blind actions.

However, the battle situation was beyond everyone's expectation.

Alexia Ashford sent an emergency distress signal, and at that moment, one of the Victory II-class Star Destroyers in the sky aimed directly at the Brood and opened fire decisively! The heavy turbolaser cannon reduces its power to a minimum, then blasts away in one shot!

Boom~~~! ! ! A corner of the nest was suddenly hit by a powerful turbo laser cannon, and a violent explosion erupted!

At this moment, Hydra was already sure of victory, and the lightsaber in her hand had already struck Alexia on the head! !

boom! ! ! The beam fired by the heavy turbolaser cannon hit the brood instantly, setting off a devastating explosion!

Hydra instantly sensed the approaching crisis. With the foreknowledge of the Force, she would never be able to survive the bombing as long as she slashed with this sword. So she immediately retreated backwards and rolled to hide in the incubation room. Underneath a cavity.

boom! boom! Boom~~~~! ! !

A violent explosion exploded immediately, and a huge gap was opened in the huge nest!

Hydra hid under the tunnel, avoiding the first and most powerful shock wave. However, the next second, an unparalleled sense of crisis suddenly hit.

Buzz! ! ! ! !

The two lightsabers collided fiercely! Hydra's lightsaber barely blocked the killing sword at the last second!

Even if she was slightly slower by 0.1 second, this sword was enough to kill her!

Click! ! A powerful bolt of lightning struck, and Hydra quickly retreated, blocking the blow with its lightsaber. But the powerful power contained in the lightning still made her stagger and almost failed to stand still.

At this time, Hydra saw who the figure that followed the Star Destroyer's cannon and killed them at the same time was.

It was a Twi'lek, a beautiful, charming, and seductive Twi'lek woman. The left one of the two tentacles called 'Leku' on the back of the Twi'lek's head had broken off and was replaced by a string of colorful gems. Wearing a black tight-fitting combat uniform, she showed off her slim and fiery figure without any scruples, and the blood-red lightsaber in her hand added a fatal threat to such coquettishness and beauty.

"I can smell your stinking force from across the entire planet! Magistrate." Darth Lilium smiled charmingly.

Hydra's two lightsabers were placed in front of her, and her eyes were already looking at the gap that had just been blown out by the Star Destroyer's gunfire. It was obvious that she no longer wanted to fight and just wanted to escape as soon as possible.

"Want to escape? I'll let you go." Darth Lilim took a step back and made way for a passage.

"Darth Lilim. Formerly known as Edela Kaitis, a Twi'lek, he was once a Jedi apprentice. He was considered by his master to be one of the apprentices with the best chance of growing into a Jedi master." Hydra reported like a treasure trove. Knowing the opponent's family background, "My original plan was to fight with you, but I didn't expect that the power of this mother body was beyond my expectation."

"Hehehe... I will accept this toy of yours. I have countless experiments that I want to slowly try on you..." Alexia sneered.

"It's a big deal to be able to capture a great magistrate!" Darth Lilim laughed and disappeared suddenly. The next second, she was waving a light whip and quickly fought with Hydra. Together. For a moment, the whip shadow filled the sky with endless lightning, and the exchange of offense and defense between the two was so fast that even Alexia could not keep up with their movements.

However, only the two fighting people knew that in this seemingly even battle, Hydra was actually at the end of its strength.

She was able to defeat Alexia at a great price, and now she was already overwhelmed by the challenge of confronting Darth Lilim! It's just that she relied on the precognition of the Force to survive until now.

But unlike Alexia Ashford, Darth Lilim can also predict the force! And her force power is no less than that of Hydra!

The attacks of the two were still as fast as lightning, and the lightsaber and light whip had collided hundreds of times in an instant!

Hydra fought and retreated, moving towards the gap in the nest, but Darth Lilim did not give her this chance at all, and pursued her closely, vowing to leave the Grand Inquisitor behind completely right here! !

Buzz~~~! ! ! Bloody light and shadow flashed by!

Hydra let out a mournful cry, and the next second, her figure flashed out of the gap. At the same time, the battle robots outside opened fire, but the distance that followed the gunshots became farther and farther.

Those clumsy battle robots can't stop the Grand Inquisitor, Hydra, who wants to escape!

Darth Lilim did not pursue. She bent down and picked up a left arm that had been severed from the shoulder. She sneered, stretched out her tongue and licked the broken part, with a twisted smile on her face, " Sure enough, the blood of such a beautiful woman excites me even more..."

"She is a huge threat. I believe that even in the Galactic Empire, such strong people are rare. You should chase her and make sure to kill her completely." Alexia Ashford said coldly.

"Rather than killing her, I want to enjoy her charming body..." Darth Lilim looked intoxicated, but threw the broken arm to Alexia like trash.

A tentacle immediately stretched out, wrapped around the severed arm and stuffed it directly into the body, quickly swallowing it completely.

"Look, aren't you the same?" Darth Lilim looked at the tentacles teasingly.

"The flesh and blood of Force-sensitive people is an important way for me to collect the unique DNA information. I will not hide my desire for their bodies." Alexia replied very coldly, "So, you won't chase her?"

"Don't worry... She can't escape my pursuit." Darth-Lilim showed an intoxicated smile.

"I hope you can make sure of this. Because I already feel that she is a fatal threat to me." Alexia-Ashford said.

Darth-Lilim looked at Alexia and smiled, "Oh? This is not something you can say. What? Where is the proud Umbrella Supreme Director?"

"I misjudged the power of Force-sensitive people. I have a very wrong model calculation for the power gap between ordinary Force-sensitive people and powerful Force-sensitive people. At present, I think I am not an opponent of the level of Hydra. I will admit this directly." Alexia replied.

"Don't worry. There are no more than twenty people like this in the entire galaxy." Darth-Lilim waved his hand, "and starting today, there will be nineteen."

"I hope so..." Alexia said, and returned to the center of the incubator, re-immersed in the layers of petals, and disappeared.

Darth-Lilim walked out of the mother nest, and a shuttle had landed and hovered in front of her. Four ghost fighters were guarding around.

[I hope you have solved this problem. Darth-Lilim. ] Admiral Severance-Tann's holographic projection appeared in the center of the shuttle's console.

"Go all out to attack Fangduo Planet. Everything has been settled. Hydra, I will kill her." Darth-Lilim waved his hand, with a solemn tone.

...

In fact, there was no need for Darth-Lilim to remind him. Under the command of Admiral Severance-Tann, the army of the Kingdom of Dawn had already swept Fangduo Planet.

Even though Alexia Ashford was seriously injured by the Hydra attack, and the speed of the mother nest hatching the Veronica virus mutant monsters was almost stagnant, the millions of mutant monsters hatched before were enough to destroy the ground defense of Fangduo.

One factory after another was destroyed, one industrial area after another was captured, and the resistance of Fangduo had collapsed.

The Galactic Empire seemed to have accepted its fate and never sent reinforcements to help Fangduo. From the perspective of the Empire, the governor of the Fourth Army, Wilhuff Tarkin, who was ordered to support Fangduo, assembled a fleet but never set off.

Just watching the complete collapse of Fangduo!
