The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

575、Imperfect Agreement

"I will not hide my distaste for your power, but I will not refuse to cooperate with you either. I will not be your friend, but I will not be your enemy either." Zekalas said, "You For your help, the Protoss will definitely repay you."

Tang Xiao said coldly: "Since this is the case, there is no need to be polite between us. Maybe I will need your strength, but that will be in the future. As for now, I need you to do something for me, After finishing, I will revive part of the protoss, first of all, let's start with the Sirak tribe you lead."

"I think this is a very appropriate way. Maybe we will find the basis for continued cooperation in the future." Zekalas said.

Tang Xiao nodded, raised his hand slightly, and a teacup next to him flew in front of him out of thin air, and then his fingers shook slightly, and the teacup silently split into several fragments, and these fragments circled his hand like satellites Continuously flying, and then, all these fragments flew into the trash can.

"What do you think of this power?" Tang Xiao asked.

"Psionic powers." Zekalas was not surprised at all, and replied directly, "There are some differences, but the essence is exactly the same. Through the mind and will, supernatural phenomena are triggered. To my surprise, As a human being, your psionic level can even be compared with those high-ranking Templars."

"In this universe, this kind of power is called 'Force'. And the Force is divided into a light side and a dark side due to different ways of practicing and using it. The light side advocates order and needs to control the user's emotions, while the dark side The side advocates disorder, which will indulge the user's desire..." Tang Xiao briefly explained the difference between the light side and the dark side force.

"Using psionic energy through emotional control is a very effective method, and you will also notice that this is also a way of controlling the mind." Zekaras said, "The protoss' use of psionic energy, There are different ways too. Like The Khala, and... The Void."

"What I want is to study and use the Force. Not only do I need to become stronger, but also because I need to master the technology of the Force." Tang Xiao said, "I recently excavated an ancient temple. It contains the force technology from ancient wars, and I hope that these technologies can be used."

"You are already strong enough, and this power will make you long enough, why do you continue to pursue it?" Zekalas asked.

"Because my enemy is far more powerful than you imagine. It is also because, although I practice the force of the dark side, I understand that neither darkness nor light is the end. I don't want to suppress myself I also don't want to be a slave to desire." Tang Xiao said seriously.

"To master two powers at the same time, as far as I know, only the great Twilight Messiah (Tassadar) has ever done it. However, he has long since fallen. Even if he is alive, I would Don't think he will help you, because you will only use such power to bring war to every corner of the universe." Zekalas replied.

"You should know that even without me, wars have already ignited throughout the galaxy," Tang Xiao said.

"I don't understand and don't care about this war, the dark and powerful lord, because this is not the essence of the matter." Zekaras obviously didn't want to talk to Tang Xiao, he saluted slightly, and said: "Please forgive me." I will rest for a while, and then I need to wake up some of my clansmen, I will help you discover and study that temple, and the cooperative relationship can be established."

After Zekalas left, Tang Xiao snorted coldly, expressing his dissatisfaction.

Protoss's pride that seeps into the soul makes this conversation not really pleasant. Even Zekalas, who he thinks is relatively easy to talk to, puts on a business-like attitude. You help me and I help you. Come, make it clear that you don't want to have more to do with your fourth civilization.

Such an attitude made Tang Xiao really uncomfortable, because in this way, although Zekalas said on the surface that he would not be an enemy of him, but in fact, when the protoss re-emerged, who knew this?

Protoss has a criminal record.

After they embarked on the road of rapid civilization development under the guidance of the Xel'naga, they soon betrayed the Xel'naga who were once regarded as gods by themselves, and drove them out of their own planet.

Protoss, from the very beginning, was not a very easy race to get along with.

However, if you think about it in your own shoes, if you have such an almost perfect life form, the mentality of treating other races as ants is also almost irresistible. To put it bluntly, they have such confidence and capital.

Moreover, whether it is the study of the Force or the study of Kyber crystals, there is indeed no one more suitable than Protoss.

The protoss themselves have extremely powerful psychic powers, and the foundation of their civilization is also derived from the Kaidarin crystal, which is almost highly similar to the coexistence relationship between the original force and the Kyber crystal.

Moreover, an important reason why Tang Xiao decided to awaken Protoss is that Protoss, a group of guys with a mental cleanliness, would definitely not accept Darth Sidious more than himself, just as Zekaras said, Draw your knife as soon as you meet, and you will never be ambiguous.

The Xirac tribe is also a tribe that is more inclined to research and academics. In the history of the Protoss, they have been studying the ruins of the Xel'Naga people and became the guardians of these ruins.

In the continuous research, they also recovered the soul link that was once abandoned by the protoss, which became the key factor in ending the protracted protoss civil war "War of All Eternals".

Therefore, awakening Zekalas, the leader of the Sirak tribe, is very suitable for Tang Xiao's current needs-because they are very good at excavating and researching ancient ruins, and their understanding of psychic power is also in the hands of the protoss. It is one of the best among the major tribes.

Their support for the Xelnaga people also shows their longing for powerful spiritual power. At the same time, when Zekaras advocated for Artanis to be the archbishop in the Twilight Council, he also expressed his desire for a powerful A leader's thirst.

Judging from these two points, it is possible for Tang Xiao to meet these conditions. Not to mention that he can really bring Protoss under his command, but at least the people of this tribe will not reject him so much.

In any case, although the result of the negotiation was not perfect, at least a cooperation was reached. It is not a short-term thing to wait for the sparsely populated race of the Protoss to develop, but if the Sirak tribe can help him excavate the temple of the Jedi Covenant on Lucian Del Rey, it will undoubtedly be a very important thing. big boost.
