The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

573、Choice

"The hypermatter engine is functioning normally..."

"The anti-gravity component is activated..."

"The radar system is online..."

"The deflector shield cycle is complete..."

"The Kyber crystal focusing system has been calibrated..." Dozens of technicians were constantly operating in front of the computer terminal, and the three-two extractor tanks parked in the spacious hangar platform had already been activated.

Severance Tann looked at the three huge tanks and asked back, "Can these three things be used in actual combat now?"

"To be honest, I'm not sure that the technology used in this thing violates the common sense of physics I know. This Kyber crystal is too amazing." The leader of these technicians was a Salarian engineer, and he spoke as if bursting into flames. Same with fried beans.

"Where are the Wookie scientists who were captured just now?" Severance Tann asked.

The Salarian engineer pointed in another direction, and began to communicate rapidly with several human scientists next to him. The overwhelming technical terms made Tann, a super genius, only flinch, and deeply understand what It is called a specialization in the art industry.

Severance Tann walked over and saw five Wookiees in white coats and glasses locked in a laser barrier in an office that was used as a makeshift prison. The Wookiee scientists were grinning at her, looking like they had absolutely no desire to communicate with her.

Tann signaled the B-1 battle robot next to him to open the laser barrier, and said to the Wookiee scientists, "Tell me everything you know about the extractor, and I can..."

Before she finished speaking, those Wookiees in white coats and glasses who looked like gentle beasts roared and rushed forward!

Swish! ! The yellow lightsaber was pulled out in an instant, killing all these Wookiee scientists in almost a single encounter!

Severance Tann put away her lightsaber, walked up to the Salarian and said, "No need, just open the hangar platform, conduct a test firing, and then we'll set off!"

The Salarian engineer looked at the corpses on the ground, waved his hand to let the cleaning robot come to clean, and then said: "The data has been sent back to Dawn Planet, but for the next step of research, these prototypes should be brought back. It is not recommended to use them directly. Actual combat."

"Depending on the power of these things, I will decide on the next move. Let's start." Severance Tann said.

The Salarian engineer didn't refute much, and immediately directed the deployment of the hangar platform, and then asked the technicians to drive the three extractors to the exit of the hangar platform, and made final preparations.

With the control of the technicians, the red ball in the center of the three extractors began to react, and the green light began to swim in the ball, and it became stronger and more dazzling, and finally these green lights converged into one point, Launch it instantly!

The target they chose was the largest island on the Wookiee island chain defense line, the main building of the Extractor Project Research Institute on Ravawarok Island. This is a 200-meter-high all-metal building with a structure comparable to a battleship defense ability.

However, when the three green lights emitted by the extractor shone on the building, the huge building was instantly pierced, forming three large holes with a diameter of more than ten meters! Moreover, the surrounding gaps were all burnt red by the extremely high temperature, and the molten metal fell down like rain, and finally there was a terrible roar, and the whole building collapsed.

Seeing the terrifying power of the Extractor, Severance Tann nodded with a sneer.

...

At this time, the all-out war between the Federation of Independent Galaxies and the Galactic Republic was intensifying, and the two sides also began to launch their own battle plans.

22BBY, on June 1, part of the clone army that retreated from the Geonosis planetary battlefield Sang had already finished resting. Both physically and mentally have returned to peak condition.

So the Strategic Command of the Galactic Republic decided to launch a counterattack.

One of their first targets was a remote mining planet, Atraken. The Galactic Republic landed a 10,000-strong clone army here.

Atraken is not a habitable planet, mainly because of the toxic atmosphere, but there are still several colonies established here, with about 1 million people living here, mostly miners.

However, after learning that the Galactic Republic had suddenly attacked the planet Atraken, Shu Mai, the owner of the industry on the planet and the chairman of the commercial guild, was very stubborn. Without hesitation, she sent an army of robots to reinforce them, and the two sides fought fiercely in the ravine-ridden mines on the surface of the planet.

Almost on the same day, the fleet of the Confederation of Independent Systems, led by General Grievous, raided the planet Exca, and defeated the planet's local defenders within 15 hours, completely occupying the planet.

On June 3, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker, who were stationed in the Tyon star sector, discovered a mysterious Confederacy of Independent Systems battle group, including 6 Rukrihus. The K-class battleship is moving strangely.

Relying on their own force to follow them all the way, they finally confirmed that the target of this battle group was a very remote planet, the planet Rhen Var.

How can such a small planet attract the attention of such a large fleet? Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker immediately reported the information to the Strategic Command of the Republic, but the answer they received was that the planet Ren-Val had no strategic value, and it was suggested to give up.

...

At the same time, the Endor galaxy, the Dawn star.

"I sincerely express my greatest respect for the bravery and skill of your subordinate army, Your Excellency the Governor." During the holographic projection, Count Dooku bowed very gracefully to Tang Xiao, "Because of the performance of the Dawn Star Fleet on Planet Bespin, let us The Confederation of Independent Galaxies has more strategic space, which may open our way to victory."

"But the price is that half of my fleet has almost lost the ability to continue fighting, and you should understand that our productivity is far from comparable to that of the Galactic Republic. So, I will deeply remember your almost indifferent indifference Yes, Earl Dooku." Tang Xiao didn't appreciate it, and said coldly.

"I hope you can understand my difficulties at that time... If possible, I am willing to provide you with the greatest compensation I can." Earl Dooku sighed, "The Granites of the Golden Rock planet, I have ordered them not Enter your western theater and accept your leadership. And after our new batch of warships is produced, I will allocate 10 Shenyi-class destroyers and 50 Generosity-class communication frigates to support your combat operations. In addition In addition, I sincerely invite you to participate in the maiden voyage ceremony of our newly built super warship."

The command power of 2 billion Granites, plus 10 newest Shenyi-class destroyers, and 50 generous-class destroyers... This is indeed a lot of sincerity.

You must know that the Gran people are not some messy backward race, but a race with advanced civilization. The allegiance of the Gran people can indeed greatly enhance the strength of their fourth civilization.

However, Tang Xiao was noncommittal, and just said indifferently: "This war is a common cause for all of us. You should be very clear, Earl Dooku, that real power and real ideals do not depend on others' charity, but on others. It should be in your hands."

If his words meant something, even Earl Dooku frowned slightly.

Tang Xiao continued: "Although my loss is heavy, I am willing to fight to the end for our great new order. The only question is whether it is really worthwhile."

Count Dooku smiled slightly, "I am very pleased to see your determination, Your Excellency Governor. With the participation of someone with vision and vision like you, I believe we will succeed."

He touched his gray beard, "I can't wait to have a drink with you and enjoy the joy of victory, but please forgive me for a few days of delay. After the incident, I will come to visit in person."

After speaking, he bowed to Tang Xiao again.

Tang Xiao also bowed in return, and the communication ended.

"Planet Ren-Val... I remember that planet is very remote..." Tang Xiao frowned, "Why did Earl Dooku go there himself? Wait a minute..."

He suddenly thought of something and shook slightly, "Planet Ron-Val... I remember that there seems to be a ruin... I remember! It's the ancient Sith Lord, Ulic Qel-Droma (Ulic Qel-Droma) The mausoleum! I asked why Dooku disappeared immediately after the war started, it turned out that he was secretly excavating the remains of the ancient Sith Empire!!"

He felt a little reconciled, but he was relieved immediately. The Milky Way is so big, even if you know the plot, it is impossible to grasp everything in your hands.

And, don't just talk about others, didn't you also leave the Fourth Civilization at the beginning of the war, and ran to dig the grave of Lucien Del Rey?

Speaking of Lucian Del Rey, Tang Xiao looked at the list of awakeners he was checking just now, this was the person he was hesitating when Earl Dooku sent a message just now.

This is a very important decision, and he doesn't have any bargaining chips in his hand now, which makes him a little unconfident, but...

According to his judgment, it will be a matter of time before Lucian Del Rey's soul compromises with him, so the excavation and research of the force technology in the temple of the Jedi Covenant in the Del Rey II satellite will be put on the agenda—don't Not to mention, the 20-meter-high force-driven large robot guard is now placed in the research center on the planet Cave-Bill, which was given to the Salarians.

And if he remembered correctly, Count Dooku went to the planet Ren-Val for a piece of Force technology, and there was no doubt that it must have been inspired by Darth Sidious.

In fact, in the universe of "Star Wars", the most powerful thing is always the Force. In contrast, ordinary physics is completely useless and even vulnerable to the Force.

The Force can do all kinds of incredible things, as can be seen from the extremely powerful Jedi Knights and Sith Lords. Immortality, controlling time, creating life, predicting the future, etc. Such terrible abilities all come from the Force.

Naturally, the Force-related technologies developed based on the Force are also extremely powerful.

Darth Sidious must be aware of this.

The Clone Wars, not the end, but the beginning. Tang Xiao is very aware of this, and now he is only hiding behind the scenes, but this will not be the case forever. When he stepped onto the stage and confronted Darth Sidious, who controlled the entire Galactic Republic and even the restructured Galactic Empire, he must rely on such supernatural power!

The research of Force Technology is imperative.

Moreover, in the mysterious and all-encompassing database of the Glory mothership, it is not that there is no similar power. For example, the psychic power of "StarCraft", the supernatural power of "Mass Effect", etc. Tang Xiao also wanted to understand how these things would be related to the original force if they were brought into this universe.

His fingers dangled on the name of a legendary figure, and finally pressed it.

This is a very risky decision. As said before, he doesn't have many cards to talk to this race.

Yes, this character is not human, but belongs to a powerful race.

According to Tang Xiao's previous experience in waking up the Salari people, when waking up a character of a foreign race, if he wants to gain their loyalty, he must negotiate from the height of race.

This is different from the awakened human characters. For a human character, no matter what, the most essential standpoint between you and him is the same—that is, to survive as a human being. With this default premise, you will discuss things like values ​​and interests.

But a foreign race is different! First of all, you have to explain to the other party how his race will survive, how to reproduce, and what role he will play. Under such a theme, personal interests are only secondary.

In other words, this kind of transaction is not the kind of human master figure, given a good team, a good environment, and good conditions can be satisfied.

This kind of transaction is at least planetary level!

Tang Xiao thought about the conditions he could offer, and still made this decision.

It's not that he didn't have a compromise choice, and in fact, before Dooku sent the communication, he was indeed hesitating whether to choose an object that was easier to control, but when he knew that Count Dooku was excavating the tomb of an ancient Sith Lord , he made up his mind.

Step by step, it is impossible to defeat Darth Sidious!

For the final victory, he is willing to pay any price!

Decide, wake up!

The data in his mind began to scroll. At this moment, even Tang Xiao, who had already practiced the dark side force very deeply, couldn't help breathing quickly.

His eyes fell on this person's profile.

In the race column of this profile, there is a long list of letters——

Protoss!

Protoss!

From, StarCraft!

This is not a familiar protoss character, he doesn't have many roles, and he is only a legend. In Tang Xiao's view, those names in the protoss are guaranteed to be at the legendary level. However, although there are a few question marks at the legendary level, he did not wake it up. It is better for the spirit to start awakening.

And this person... should be very suitable for his current needs.

Compared to going directly to an existence like Archbishop Artanis, this person may have a slightly higher chance of accepting his conditions.

PS: Don't guess, you can't guess, this person is not in the plot of "Legacy of the Void".
