The Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

720. Between Darkness and Light

A Jedi, unless absolutely necessary, would not kill, especially not an unarmed person.

But now, the dozens of corpses that fell in front of Shen Qiaoen were basically civilians, and they had no weapons in their hands.

Shen-Jon killed them all without hesitation.

He didn't betray the Republic or the Jedi Order, but he embraced the darkness and fell into the dark side of the Force. In the eyes of the Jedi Order, this is betrayal.

The lightsaber in his hand was trembling, and the pure kyber crystal was resisting the force of the dark side. Shen-Jon clenched the hilt of the sword fiercely, and the more powerful force of the dark side was injected into the lightsaber, and the Kyber crystal faintly let out a mournful cry...

A clone trooper came over and said: "General, we have already cleared this experimental base. They should have destroyed all the experimental data and left nothing behind. Now we have planted a bomb in this base. After detonation, the extractor project There will be nothing left."

Shen Jon nodded, and then asked, "Is there any news about Severance Tann?"

"No, General. The person in charge of the experiments here should be a Separatist general named Cheng Shitao, but we didn't find any trace of him. We only know that he came from Planet Dawn." The clone soldier said.

Shen-Jon nodded, "Okay then, let's leave here and continue hunting down Severance Tann."

"yes!"

Shen Jon walked out of the collapsed control center, looked back at the corpses all over the ground, and said coldly: "At least, we have completed one of the tasks."

Several hoverbikes approached, and after they stopped in front of Shen Qiaoen, his apprentice Nat Reese jumped off, followed by the hunter team, hunter, obstacle removal king, sight and technician.

"Master, we captured all the technicians who escaped, and killed them all without asking anything." Nat Reiss said lightly.

After this period of hunting and fighting, with the hatred of his brother being killed, Nat Reese has also fallen into the dark side. Although she was only about 16 years old, her face was already full of killing intent.

"General, I actually think they can be captured, after all, they have already surrendered." The technician said.

Shen Qiaoen looked up at him, and said coldly: "Remember one sentence - Good soldier, obey order (Good soldier Follow order)."

"Yes!" The sight immediately gave a military salute.

"Let's go, before the separatist reinforcements arrive." Shen-Jon lifted the hood and put it on again, covering the upper half of his face, and then jumped directly on another empty hoverbike, heading towards The direction of the shuttle in the distance is driving at high speed.

Taking the shuttle back to the Jaeger-class battlecruiser, the battleship increased the output of its engines, broke free from the planet's gravity, started the hyperspace engine and disappeared instantly.

A full two hours after they left, several Higra-class battlecruisers arrived here, but what awaited them was the experimental base that had already been turned into ruins.

"General, where is our next target?" On the bridge of the Hunter-class battlecruiser, the clone commander came to Shen-Jon and asked after saluting.

"The supplies we got on Krante planet are enough for a period of time. Let's find a place to hide first, and then we will go to the moon of the smugglers and the planet Nashada to find some information." Shen-Jon said.

"Then, what about the previous captives?" the clone commander asked again.

"Bring him here." Shen-Jon said.

A few minutes later, the clone troopers dragged a Neimoidian over, and it turned out to be Pruel Barron, who had been arguing with General Cheng Shitao on the planet Irene before.

When she saw Shen-Jon, she begged loudly, "My lord, my lord, please spare me! I've told you everything I know, and I didn't lie, right? Planet Krant is indeed the experimental base of the extractor project! Please! Don't kill me, the Trade Federation will pay a high ransom, really! Really!"

Shen-Jon looked at her with garbage eyes, and asked coldly, "Where is Severance Tann?"

"I... I don't know... She, she belongs to the Dawn Star in the Western Theater, how do I know her whereabouts..." Pruel-Barron said tremblingly.

"So, where is Cheng Shitao?" Shen Qiaoen asked again.

"I...he was on the planet Irene before, that coward ran earlier than me! He didn't tell me when he left! Didn't his convoy be defeated by you later? He must be dead! Yes! For sure Dead!" As soon as Cheng Shitao was mentioned, Pruehl-Barron's face became grim.

Now she wished Cheng Shitao would die, so that her embezzlement and embezzlement of experimental funds and equipment would not be exposed.

Shen-Jon said coldly: "This guy is somewhat valuable, find the nearest Republic outpost, hand her over to the Republic for trial, and leave the other captives behind."

"Why not kill her, master?" asked Nat Reese.

Shen-Jon looked at the endless universe outside the porthole, and said, "It should be, give my master, Master Windu, an explanation."

"We can't go back, can we?" Nat Reese asked again.

"When we kill Severance Tann, our mission will be over." After Shen Jon finished speaking, he turned and left the bridge.

...

The outer ring of the Milky Way, the planet Dagobah.

Darth Malthael stood in front of a cave, just looked at the cave silently, without saying a word.

From the cave, an incomparably dark power emanated, almost like a black hole, so dark that even light could not penetrate it.

But Darth Malthael didn't do anything, just stood here, watching.

"I didn't expect that we would meet in this way. Tang Xiao, or, I should call you...Darth Malthael..." A voice came from behind him.

A phantom floated behind him, and it gradually became clear. It was an old man wearing a Jedi knight's brown robe, with gray beard and hair, and a majestic but kind face...

Jedi Master, Qui-Gon-Jinn.

"This planet is the planet with the purest force in the entire galaxy, and you can see a lot of things through it." Darth Masail said lightly, "So, have you seen the future of the galaxy? "

"I saw it, but I didn't see it." Qui-Gon-Jin shook his head, "I saw your determination to reverse all this, but unfortunately, you took the wrong path. Even if you win this war, you The existence of it will only make this galaxy darker."
