The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

1892. Chase

Although the news about Darth Lilim was brief, looking at the large array of five Imperial-class Star Destroyers, Darth Malthael was really sure that Darth Sidious had suffered a big loss. , and it was so bad that he almost lost his temper and even had to dispatch a fleet to regain his position at all costs!

Sure enough, when Darth Sidious heard this, his expression moved slightly, but he pressed it down forcefully, and then said sternly: "Guth Zerlain is a huge threat to all creatures in the galaxy. In order to prevent the galaxy from All lives are in ruins. First, I must ensure that she does not escape from the planet Dathomir. Then we can go together and kill her!"

Who is escaping? Darth Malthael sneered in his heart, Darth Lilium's message directly mentioned that the two sides were fighting, and it was your Majesty the Emperor who fled in panic.

However, Darth Malthael also knew that with Darth Sidious making such a fuss, it would probably be impossible to kill Guthzeraine. With her power, which can be said to be one of the strongest in the galaxy, he clearly wants to kill her. With such a clear sign, even if she relies on the force's precognition to escape from the pursuit, orbital bombing will be difficult.

"His Majesty the Emperor is thinking about all the people in the galaxy. This is the luck of the galaxy." Darth Malthael complimented duplicitously, "So where is Guthzeraine now? Can it be locked?"

"She was very cunning. She ran away immediately after discovering our arrival." Darth Sidious said, "However, during my investigations in the past few days, I found that there are other witches on the planet Dathomir, and they are... The Night Sisters are hostile. We found several battlefields where the witches were massacred. If we want to find Guthzeraine, we can start with those witches."

"Ah, yes. Go and ask for directions." Darth Malthael said perfunctorily.

He didn't think Darth Sidious could still find Guthzeryan, and in fact, it wasn't him who was irritating the old witch now. Even if the old witch ran away, she would definitely go to the Galactic Empire. trouble.

The Galactic Empire has a great cause, but the Principality of Dawn is relatively safe. The old witch wants to establish her own sphere of influence, kill some people to vent her anger, and rob a large amount of wealth. These things are not in the Principality's turn.

Although Guthzerion is also a huge hidden danger for Darth Malthael, what he needs to avoid most is that one day when he is fighting to the death with the Galactic Empire, an old man with terrifying power and disapproval suddenly appears. The witch comes to stir up trouble. So for this matter, he decided to drag Darth Sidious onto the pirate ship.

Now that Darth Sidious has entered the game, and the first object of hatred is not him, he must be in trouble now! Guthzerion is such a strong man, whoever wants to touch her can do it!

Darth Sidious seemed to see through Darth Malthael's plot to paddle. He sneered and said: "Guthzerion, she seems to have seen your existence. She discovered that it was you who had the insight. She was resurrected, so...she won't be polite to you, Mr. Death Angel..."

Darth Malthael's expression changed. It was really impossible for this old fox to let himself be alone... This guy must have revealed his information to Guthzeraine! That's right, the biggest flaw in his plan was right here - no matter how he tried to hide it, the news of Guthzeraine's resurrection always came from him.

He squeezed out a very twisted smile and said: "That's right! For the life of the galaxy and the people of the world, I am duty-bound! This is all to save those innocent lives! I will fight the evil Guthzeryan to the end!"

The two extremely evil Sith Lords, for the sake of the people of the galaxy, for the sake of love and justice, decided to join forces to fight against the founder of the extremely powerful Sisterhood of the Night, the Queen of the Night - Guthzeraine!

…

A moment later, Darth Malthael arrived at one of the Imperial-class Star Destroyers with the Inquisition, Priestess, Charal the Witch, and two other people who shrouded themselves in shadows with burlap cloaks. bridge.

There were six people on Darth Malthael's side. On Darth Sidious's side, there was also a bald man, a cyborg, and seven weird-looking guys hidden under cloaks. In total, there were ten personal.

Darth Malthael was a little strange. He originally thought that Darth Sidious would definitely bring Darth Vader, but instead he brought two people he didn't know at all. The other seven people were also very strange.

He could only think that under the huge size of the Galactic Empire, there were many hidden masters that he had no way of knowing.

"This is my senior inquisitor, Antinnis Tremayne." Darth Sidious pointed at the cyborg behind him, and then pointed at the bald head, " Jerec, also an Imperial Inquisitor."

He did not introduce the other seven people, although they had been standing behind Darth Sidious, displaying their dark side power unscrupulously.

Darth Malthael didn't care, he pointed behind him casually and said: "Judgment, Priestess, my horse boy. Charal, the witch of the Sisters of the Night, whom you met before." And the other two were shrouded in shadow. He also said nothing about the person under the linen cloak.

His very casual words made Darth Sidious unable to accept them for a while, mainly because of the strange word Ma Zai spoken in the common language of the Galaxy.

"Wrangler? Hmm... Not bad, not bad." Darth Sidious used his own way to regain his position verbally, "Master Depa Billaba, long time no see."

For Depa Billaba, Master Windu's favorite disciple, and one of the top five lightsaber swordsmen in the galaxy, it was natural that Darth Sidious could not be blocked by a mask from his exploration. He revealed the identity of the priestess in one breath, and looked at Darth Malthael with the pride in his eyes that he had discovered the conspiracy.

However, Depa-Bilaba saluted very calmly and said to Darth Sidious: "Depa-Bilaba is dead, and what is in front of you now... is the 'Priestess' - a woman in the light and In the darkness, the confused soul is looking for its own path..."

Darth Sidious took a deep look at Darth Malthael. If it was because of the other party's powerful and strange death force before, as well as the technologically powerful and superior fleet... He now He really has a deep fear of Darth Malthael.

Depa-Bilaba, this Depa-Bilaba, whose attainments in the Force and lightsaber swordsmanship even surpassed most of the members of the Supreme Council of the Jedi Order among the previous Jedi Order, actually worshiped Darth so devoutly. -Mathael's men.

Such things, no matter from which perspective, can only show that Darth Malthael's influence is far more powerful than he imagined!

Darth Sidious glanced at the two cloaked figures standing behind Darth Malthael. Just as he did not introduce the seven people behind him, Malthael also did not introduce the two people who seemed to be women, and just let them stand behind him without saying a word.

There is no doubt that no matter from which angle, these two existences that look like women should be Darth Malthael's trump card.

Darth Sidious can only think of ways to test now. But before that, they would never dare to act rashly.

Now, the two sides are like this, Darth Malthael plus his men, a total of six people, and those standing under Darth Sidious, a total of ten people. Standing on the bridge of the Imperial-class Star Destroyer as the flagship, the two sides stared at each other with big eyes and small eyes.

Darth Sidious really wanted to kill Darth Malthael on the spot to solve the biggest hidden danger in the galaxy. However, after seeing the few people brought by Darth Malthael, he understood that he could not simply leave Darth Malthael and his group behind.

Even compared to Darth Malthael, his personal strength is actually stronger. After all, he destroyed the Jedi Order and the Galactic Republic. The feedback given to him by the dark side inheritance alone was enough to benefit him endlessly, not to mention that he also obtained a part of the Jedi Order's collection that he had not had time to transfer.

But even so, Darth Sidious was not sure that he could kill all the people on the spot, including Darth Malthael's people, because he could not even check the strength of these people's Force. ! And if they can't do this, then once they turn against each other and start a fight, when they go back, the Dawn Principality will undoubtedly go to war with the Galaxy Empire again. At this stage, Darth Sidious is not willing to see this result.

As a result, the result was a situation where the two sides were at war with each other, but the conflict still did not really break out.

Darth Malthael and Darth Sidious both wanted the other to die immediately, but this time, they had to pinch their noses and join forces with each other.

"Then, let's set off. Go find Gethzerion." Darth Malthael said.

Darth Sidious nodded, "Let's investigate separately first. Once we find her traces, we will notify her immediately, and then join forces to kill her!"

Darth Malthael still piloted his Red Comet, while the Priestess and others each piloted a Viking fighter. Darth Sidious replaced it with a new Lambda-class shuttle, and his men flew TIE interceptors to escort the surrounding area.

The two teams took off from the hangar platform of the Imperial-class Star Destroyer and flew in different directions.

…

The planet Dathomir, a secret temple hidden underground. Dozens of Night Sisterhood witches were surrounding them in a circle, kneeling on the ground, chanting unknown spells in a low voice. Waves of powerful force were constantly being inspired along with the spells, and were injected into the figure floating in the middle...

Queen of the Night, Guthzerion!

At this moment, she closed her eyes tightly and continued to absorb the power of the witches of the Sisters of Darkness around her. She remained silent and seemed to be sleeping.

Jon Shen, wearing a black waterproof cloak, stood below, while Mother Talzin and Asajj Ventress stood behind him. But at this time, Jon Shen looked a little angry.

"The Angel of Death! Why did he know about the existence of the Queen of the Night?! Not only that, he even joined forces with Darth Sidious! Damn that guy!" Shen Qiaoen's expression was a little ferocious.

Resurrecting Guthzerion, making an agreement with her, and even controlling her to a certain extent was a plan that Darth Tenebrous had started when he was still alive.

In fact, hundreds of years ago, Guthzerion chose to enter a state of half death and half sleep because his life was about to end. After being found by Darth Tenebrous, he used his immortality to awaken Guthzerion, and also used the power of the Gross Primarch to successfully influence the extremely powerful Queen of the Night.

Starting from Darth Tenebrous, Darth Plagueis, and Darth Malthael, this line of Sith Lords have all conducted in-depth research on the art of immortality. Later, through the bridge of Darth Malthael, after resurrecting Darth Tenebrous, the knowledge of this master was further integrated with theirs, so Darth Tenebrous and Darth Malthael Sayer can be said to be the most outstanding person in the art of immortality.

Of course, the traitor Darth Sidious is not included. He is obsessed with politics and has not learned anything about the art of immortality from Darth Plagueis. Now that he has become the emperor, he has started research again, but it is all conducted by himself and dark side force groups such as the Dark Prophet. It is already a different line.

After Darth Tenebrous resurrected Guthzeryan, with the help of this man who can be said to be one of the strongest men in the galaxy, his next plan will be smoother! The Death Guard Transcendent Vizsla on the planet Mandalore is a chess piece, Tiber Zane of the Zane Consortium is a chess piece, Black Sun is a chess piece, and the planet Dathomir is also a chess piece!

Now Shen Qiaoen is adhering to the legacy of Darth Tenebrous, inheriting his Sith title, receiving the inheritance of the dark side, and weaving an extremely huge web of darkness on the edge of the galaxy! When this web is weaved, the entire galaxy will be shocked!

However! When his plan had just begun, the Necromancer came to the door with Darth Sidious!

Although in the previous contact, Gus Zeryan beat Darth Sidious and fled in panic, she was not unscathed, and she returned here just to recuperate.

This makes Jon Shen even more angry! Because this is simply an unnecessary disaster! He had no idea that it would be the Raven Ring, an artifact of the Sisters of the Night that was stolen more than a hundred years ago, and a witch from the Sisters of the Night who defected more than a hundred years ago that would expose Guszeraine!

He didn't even know that in fact, in Guthzeraine's current state, even if he resonated with the Ring of Crows, it would be absolutely impossible to track him there, so Darth Malthael's worry was completely unnecessary. Under such a strange combination of circumstances, the result was that Darth Malthael and Darth Sidious came together to kill him!
