Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

"We, Corellian, merchant. We, looking for, furs, rare metals. Please, let us go home." A cylindrical droid was translating word by word.

Beside the droid, the three militants who were captured before were lying on the table, groaning weakly, uttering a word from time to time.

Tang Xiao sat opposite the table in the interrogation room, watching the performance of the three with his legs crossed. T-850 stood behind him expressionlessly, keeping his feet at shoulder level, and standing with his hands behind his back. posture.

One Earth standard day has passed. During these 24 hours, under the request of the Brain and the beating and coercion of the marines, the three militants were forced to say countless words for analysis. Perhaps from the time they came out of the mother's womb to the present, even including the crying of babies, the sum of them didn't have as many words as they said this day.

Now the analysis of this language called Galaxy standard language has exceeded 40%, and a certain level of dialogue can be carried out. But the subsequent parsing of letters, words, and grammar will take a while.

The three militants didn't know that their miserable future was ahead, they were still trying their best to pretend to be miserable, hoping that Tang Xiao, who seemed more amiable and younger, would be lenient and let them go.

Tang Xiao turned a blind eye to their performance, turned to the translation robot and said, "Where is the capital of the Galactic Empire?"

The three were at a loss when they heard the translation, and one of them corrected: "The Galactic Republic, not the Empire. Coruscant, the capital."

"Then who is the leader of the Jedi Order?" Tang Xiao asked again.

The three of them continued to look confused, shaking their heads to express their ignorance.

That's right, although the Jedi Knights of the Republic period had aloof status, they acted in a low-key manner, silently guarding the Galactic Republic. The existence of the Jedi Knights is mostly just a legend in the minds of ordinary people in the galaxy.

Tang Xiao thought for a while, then changed the question, "Who is the Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Senate?"

They thought about this question, and one of them answered: "Finis Valorum."

Tang Xiao's expression changed, and he asked one last question, "Has there ever been a war on Planet Naboo?"

The three shook their heads.

Tang Xiao stood up without saying a word, left the interrogation room and walked towards the bridge.

[The Supreme Commander has left, let's continue. Please use the most accurate words to describe the appearance of this cat below. ]The voice of the Brain followed, and several marines with round waists and thick shoulders walked in and looked at the militants with a cold snort.

Soon there was a miserable wail from the interrogation room.

Back on the bridge, Tang Xiao sat on the main seat, leaning on the backrest and staring at the ceiling of the command center in a daze. Now he has narrowed down the current "Star Wars" era to less than 20 years, but the result is not happy anyway.

Tang Xiao is undoubtedly a "Star Wars" fan, and naturally, he has a full understanding of the "Star Wars" plot before time travel, and in the plot of "Star Wars" he knows, during more than ten years of his tenure as the speaker, Phoenix-Valorum, It was also the most chaotic ten years in the Galactic Republic.

Because in the past 20 years, the Galaxy will usher in an unprecedented war and turmoil, and almost every corner of the Galaxy will be involved in the flames of war. In this war, the Galactic Republic with a history of more than 25,000 years ushered in its final destruction. Just like the Eternal Empire, the Infinite Empire, the Sith Empire, and even the Kiliks hundreds of thousands of years ago that once appeared in this galaxy and flourished for a while, they disappeared in the long river of history.

Tang Xiao began to sort out the "Star Wars" plot in his memory. Now the Supreme Chancellor of the Republic Senate is Finis Valorum, and the war on the planet Naboo has not yet broken out. This is an important node.

Because the war on the Naboo planet finally caused the former speaker Finnis Valorum to step down, Sheev Palpatine became the new Supreme Chancellor of the Republic. Then... Under his conspiracy, 10 years after the Naboo Star War, the Galactic Republic was completely divided from war.

The exploited planets on the Outer Rim of the Galaxy announced the establishment of the Confederation of Independent Galaxies to fight against the Galactic Republic. The two sides fought an all-out war that lasted for three years. Because the Galactic Republic used a large number of clone soldiers, it was called the "Clone Wars".

Schiff Palpatine, possibly the greatest conspirator in the history of the "Star Wars" universe, planned all this. He used this war to finally overthrow the Galactic Republic, wipe out the Jedi Order, and wipe out the resistance forces in the Outer Rim. sweep away.

Then, he proclaimed himself emperor on the ruins of the Galactic Republic and changed the Galactic Republic to the Galactic Empire {Note 1}.

Thinking of this, Tang Xiao let out a long sigh, only feeling his head swell.

This is a dark age... Palpatine can be regarded as one of the best conspirators and careerists in the history of "Star Wars"... Whether it is politics or conspiracy, whether it is personal strength or influence, the opponent far exceeds himself... How can I live with this?!

"Obey him? Join the Galactic Empire and become His Majesty's chess piece?" This thought flashed through Tang Xiao's mind, but then his eyes turned cold, "Impossible! These things... are mine!!"

Tang Xiao looked at the busy people in the bridge command center, and said to himself: "If it was the Republic period... because there is still a parliament before our strength develops, we need a person to go to the parliament to issue our orders. voice, maybe more help can be enlisted... yes... I need a politician..."

He understands that in the world of "Star Wars", at least for now, the Galactic Senate has the final say. What does this mean? Done right, a politician's two lips may be worth a fleet of ships!

The Galactic Republic in "Star Wars" is such a democratic regime that is left to the extreme. Under such circumstances, even if their own strength is insufficient, an excellent politician can also win more benefits for them.

Planet Dawn has only one planet, and even if all the technology in the database is cashed out in an instant, it has absolutely no background to meet future wars. So... need more allies, a better political environment.

Tang Xiao looked up at the backs of Clement and Qi Jian and shook his head slightly.

They can't.

Clement's major is not in this at all, don't expect her to get involved in politics. Qi Jian was born as a staff officer, and he is only an ordinary class figure, and his ability is still relatively limited.

He also found that most people in the ordinary class are relatively young, people in the elite class are slightly older, and people in the master class will have many old men in their 50s and 60s.

This shows that this level division is only based on the current achievements of this person. As long as there is enough time and experience, ordinary people can become masters.

But the cultivation of talents is one aspect. If you want to compete with Palpatine, no, you can't say that. Now he doesn't even have the qualifications to stand on the stage. At least one must first step onto the big stage of the Galaxy, and then talk about who to contend with.

A master statesman is needed! In this way, on the one hand, he can continue to expand his strength at home, and on the other hand, he can strive for more interests in the political arena of the Republic.

Tang Xiao took a deep breath and began to flip through the list of people who could be awakened. Suddenly, he found that the list seemed to have changed! In the past, there were three classes: ordinary, elite, and master, followed by three question marks.

And now one of the question marks has been displayed, it is legendary!

Legendary character!

"Brain! When will the legendary character be unlocked?" Tang Xiao asked in surprise.

[After you awaken, Supreme Commander. If you don't have powerful abilities, characters at the legendary level and higher will not be loyal to you. Forcibly waking them up may lead to chaos instead. Everyone at this level has this ability, or even worse. ]
