The Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

678、Beyond Death

"Fear is not enough. This is the reason why Suramar's 19th Army failed..." Wilhof Tarkin turned his head slightly, and said slowly while ignoring Darth Sidious's holographic projection, "We Put fear back into Dawn Star's heart."

"I only care about when the dawn star will be destroyed." Darth Sidious asked.

"I need 5 years." Will Huff-Tarkin replied directly.

"I don't have 5 years to give you!"

"If that's the case, I can only say that this is not a rational choice." Tarkin shook his head.

"So tell me, how many warships do you need?" Darth Sidious asked.

"500 Jaeger-class ships." Tarkin directly reported a number.

"In the current situation, this is an outrageous number!" Darth Sidious was a little displeased.

"Our enemy is not just the Dawn planet. The power of separatism is our main threat at present. I mean, the Confederation of Independent Galaxies." Tarkin replied, "If we lack enough power, we will not be able to destroy the enemy confidence, the losses of the war will be extremely large.”

"The Confederation of Independent Galaxies...Maybe it is true...hehehehe..." Darth Sidious laughed for a while, "Maybe..."

"Actually, at the current stage, I don't recommend attacking the dawn star, which is not in line with our strategy." Tarkin said.

"Do your own thing, Tarkin. Of course I have my own considerations." Darth Sidious said.

"Is it another supernatural power like the original force? In my opinion, this power cannot be used to establish the power we expect." Tarkin said.

"Now you will use such power. Suramar was killed in his mansion, under heavy protection, you will not want to follow in his footsteps." Darth Sidious said, " I'll have the Jedi Order send two Jedi Masters to keep you safe, use them well."

"It's best to have two humans. I'm not too interested in non-human races." Tarkin didn't veto this time, but said something lightly.

"I'll be waiting to hear from you, Wilhuff Tarkin, my friend." Darth Sidious finished, cutting off the communication.

Wilhuff Tarkin just turned around, came to his desk, flipped through the documents on the desk, and could see that it was full of information about Dawn Star and the 19th Army.

His expression gradually became solemn, and he pressed the communication button and said: "Add more people, I want to know all the information about Dawn Planet, including how many meals their civilians eat a day, what is the staple food, I want to know everything."

"yes!"

Only then did Tarkin walk out of his office with his hands behind his back, and a group of fully armed elite guards immediately stepped forward and followed behind him. Tarkin still didn't say a word, just walked forward with his head held high, the impact of his long military boots on the clean and tidy floor made a crisp sound, and there were echoes in this busy but quiet corridor.

He went all the way down and came to a cell closed by a laser barrier, only to see a person sitting inside, he was locked by more than a dozen shackles, and he could only maintain a sitting posture.

What's more frightening is that his head is fixed by a complex mechanism, and his eyes are kept open by two tiny mechanical hands. His eyes are wide open, bloodshot, tears have long since dried up, and the unmoisturized lens has begun to dry up. .

There are a large number of needle holes in his arms, which are the result of being injected with various veritaserum and hallucinogens. But what is even more frightening is that the bones at the back of his head were completely opened, and his brain was directly exposed. A robot dedicated to torture was piercing various parts of his brain with long live steel needles on several mechanical arms. .

Among other things, the torture robot itself, if it gets out, would be enough for Tarkin to be sued by those congressmen who flaunted democracy and human rights until the next life.

Although he has been tortured to the point of being inhuman, he can still be recognized. This person is Colonel Lott, former intelligence officer of the 19th Army of the Republic.

Now Colonel Lotter has almost completely lost the ability to speak, relying on a device directly cut into his throat and implanted to record the vibration of the vocal cords to form a written language.

Tarkin came to the torture robot, looked at all the information he got from Colonel Lott after looking at the torture during this period, and flipped through it, but it was not of much value, so he said to the torture robot: "It's still not complete. From He digs out every second of his analysis of Dawn Star's intelligence at that time. I want to know every detail. If you can't know how Dawn Star passed us such deadly false information, what happened to the 19th Army , will be repeated in our 18th Army."

The dozens of electronic eyes on the torture robot's head flickered, and he spoke quickly in the robot's unique language. Tarkin looked at the translator and said lightly: "It doesn't matter, I don't care whether this person is alive or not, as long as he can give Just what I want."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left directly surrounded by the guards.

...

"Stand at attention! Fire the salute! Salute!!"

boom! boom! boom! boom! !

The heavy salute roared rhythmically, and 99 rounds were fired.

The guard of honor of the Fourth Civilization was dressed in black military uniforms and lined up on both sides with solemn expressions.

Tang Xiao was also wearing a black governor's uniform, with numerous medals pinned to his chest, and the most conspicuous one was when he first encountered the pirate Tie Ya-Kuken, he went to the front to fight in person, and then the military The standard two-level stellar medal, this medal also has a special meaning for him.

He personally supported the coffin of Marshal Igor Zavarov, and walked forward slowly. A group of soldiers of the guard of honor at the front and back walked forward together with uniform steps.

Tang Xiao looked at the body of Marshal Igor Zavarov placed in the anti-gravity crystal coffin, and shook his head slightly.

"If you want, I can resurrect you and give you a long lifespan..." Tang Xiao said a few days ago in front of the hospital bed of Marshal Igor Zavalov who was unable to speak.

However, Igor Zavalov just held Tang Xiao tightly with his rough hands, shook his head firmly, then patted the back of Tang Xiao's hand lightly, and died with a smile.

This made Tang Xiao feel powerless for the first time after awakening the power of death. He vaguely discovered that sometimes, death doesn't seem so absolute...

In this world, there may be many things beyond death...
