2026, secret operation

"Chasdemons channel... I will immediately deploy drones to investigate." Admiral Chiara said seriously, "As long as we can find the home planet of the Agbu people, it will be equivalent to breaking a link of Grisk's hegemony. Only arm. Before that, I will lead the main force of the combined fleet to solve the problem of Kilgi, the Kingdom of Light."

Tang Xiao nodded and said, "You can decide this matter yourself."

"Chasdemons Channel, let's go." A deep voice came from his mind. Tang Xiao turned his head, only to see that the speaker was the Dark Templar Ora Khan.

In the previous discussion, he and another female Dark Templar, Sora-A, remained silent throughout and did not participate. But now, they put forward their ideas directly.

Sora-A also said: "If the Agbu people's home planet is very far away, the efficiency of drone detection is extremely low. If we go there, we can conduct secret investigations without worrying about being controlled by the Grisk people."

Tang Xiao thought for a moment and said, "Okay. Then I'll leave this task to you."

"Ul'as...addari" (Follow your wishes) Ola-Khan said, and his and Sora-a's figures disappeared like bubbles.

"Let's start taking action too! The threat of Grisk's hegemony must be resolved once and for all!" Tang Xiao stood up and said sternly.

Their deployment has been completed. Since the Grisk people's home planet cannot be found now, they must solve the immediate problem first.

Admiral Chiara leads the combined fleet to attack the invading fleet of Kilgi from the Kingdom of Light. High-ranking Templar Rasdian will assist her in her actions and ensure that she will not be attacked by the Grisk who may be hiding. Influence.

Lieutenant General Brent is still stationed on the planet of Hisla, and all the battleships captured from Gixtus are under his temporary command. After the repairs and maintenance of these battleships are completed, the battleships will be assigned to the newly rising Chissland. organizations similar to labor unions.

Coupled with the existence of the Eternal super aircraft carrier, the defense of the planet Hisla can be said to be rock solid. Because this time Gixtus jumped directly into the planet Hisla, it also sounded the alarm for them. In other words, the Grisk people could also cross the chaotic hyperspace channel through unknown means.

High-ranking Templar Rosales went to the planet Cruste to continue to assist Anita, develop the Holy Advent sect, and continue to study the captured Grisk and Agbu people.

And Keith Maxwell was finally liberated. He was no longer restricted to commanding the fleet in the command center. The current mission is to drive his Stratus-class cruiser to search for possible traces of the Grisk people around Chisland.

Although there are no more high-ranking Templars now, to ensure his safety, there are still four Protoss Zealot warriors working with him. Although the protoss fanatic warriors are far from having the same spiritual abilities as the high-level templar warriors, at least they can still sense the control of the Grisk people. Once they find out that the situation is not good, they will immediately protect Kai. Si left.

Tang Xiao will drive the Red Comet 3 to the direction of the planet Catlia on the east side of the Chiss territory, because although the Chiss do not know the specific location of the Kiliks, they probably still know that they are on the Chiss territory. On the east side of Sri Lanka. The planet Catlia is the planet on the eastern border of the Chiss Territory, and there are often reports of Kilik people appearing here.

Tang Xiao was stationed on the planet Catlia, mainly trying to find ways to have in-depth contact with the Kilik people here. On the one hand, he wanted to use the Kilik people to deal with the Grisk hegemony. On the other hand, this race was also the subject of in-depth research for him.

After all, although the Kilik people have degenerated into a very barbaric and backward insect swarm, the traces of Taiyi, the god of heaven, on them will never be erased so easily.

Since the last time he accidentally came into contact with Tai Ren's 'father', Tang Xiao has been full of fear towards them.

35,000 years ago, the Kilik people suddenly degenerated and declined. This was almost certainly done by Tai Ren, but how they did it, Tang Xiao had to figure out. Because he is also very worried that the same method will befall the fourth civilization.

Their respective arrangements have been determined. Since the defeat of Gixtus, Tang Xiao was affected by the unknown means of the Grisk people at that moment, and it was followed by the time when Kilgi, the Kingdom of Light, declared war on the Chiss Territory and the Principality of Dawn. From the beginning, this war was destined not to end in a short time.

The danger of Grisk's hegemony has become extremely serious. Before the real fallout with the Galactic Empire, Tang Xiao must also solve this time bomb!

…

12BBY, April 3rd.

In the southwest of the Milky Way, on the edge of the Central Star Region, the planet Chalcedon.

This planet is located between the Seriya planet and the Granite planet, the home planet of the Gran people. It is located on the most important hyperspace channel in the Haven sector of the Principality of Dawn - the Great Gran Run.

The Great Gran Channel is a channel discovered and extensively exploited by the Gran people who have a very broad influence in this star region. This channel connects the planet Seria and the planet Golden Rock. The Seriya planet is the gateway from the Model sector to the main areas of the Milky Way.

In addition, at the other end of the channel is the northern border of the Dawn Principality - the planet Yago-Dur.

Therefore, the importance of the Grand Channel is self-evident. For the Havin Sector, one of the three major star sectors in the Principality of Dawn, the Great Grand Channel is the most important traffic lifeline and lifeline!

However, in this now very prosperous hyperspace channel, the planet Chalcedon is not a very eye-catching planet. Because this planet, which is mainly composed of rocks and volcanoes, is not suitable for life.

However, intelligent life is always full of creativity. Twenty-five thousand years ago, when the Infinite Empire rose, the Rakata people built a military base on the planet Chalcedon. But later, with the defeat of the Infinite Empire, the military base on this planet was also abandoned.

Hundreds of years ago, some smugglers established a colony on this planet based on the ruins of the Infinite Empire. After a long period of development and growth, the planet Chalcedon became a very famous slave trading center in the underground world. .

The huge profits brought by the slave trade allowed the slave owners on the planet Chalcedon to make a lot of money, and the colonies on the planet also developed to fourteen. This is because there are exactly fourteen Infinite Empire ruins currently available.

Although there is nothing of value in these ruins, smugglers and slave traders can still use the high-end technology of the Rakata people to build military base buildings that can isolate the erosion of volcanoes on the planet and transform them into suitable buildings. A settlement where people live.

When the Fourth Civilization defeated the 19th Army of the Galactic Republic and occupied the planet Chalcedon, the total population on the planet was approximately between 10 million and 60 million, and it was impossible to count it because the floating population was too large.

Although it is said to be an occupation, for this planet with little resource value, Graham, the governor of the Haven sector at the time, did not spend much effort to develop it, but let it go. In short, you slave owners should not come here to influence the fourth civilization. That’s it.

However, things suddenly changed three years ago, in 15BBY.

An extremely large company suddenly arrived on the planet Chalcedon without any warning and built their base here.

The slave trading ecosystem on the planet Chalcedon, which had lasted for hundreds of years, became fragmented due to the advent of this company.

…

Planet Chalcedon, Colony 7.

A Bosa man dressed as a mercenary came to a bar, leaned against the bar, ordered himself a glass of red wine, and while drinking, he looked at the Twi'lek dancers who were doing a striptease on the stage.

Next to it, a drunk security guard was telling everyone about the past. He was bragging about the brutal battle when the fourth civilization attacked the planet Eriadu eight years ago.

Red wine is a popular low-alcohol fruit wine in the Principality of Dawn and is popular because of its mellow taste. Moreover, this kind of red wine is not expensive, and workers, mercenaries and the like all like to have a few glasses of it in their leisure time.

The bartender filled a large glass with purple-red red wine, and then slid the glass over directly into the hands of the Bothan mercenary. He was talkative and spoke naturally, "Sir, it seems that you often go to Liming Principality to do business?"

The Bosa man smiled lightly, "Haha, how do you know that I don't always live in the Principality of Dawn?"

"Haha, that's because you ordered red wine but didn't light a cigar for yourself." The bartender began to clean the plate, "Did you know that in the history of Dawn Planet, wine and cigars were once luxuries. Because The raw materials for these two things... well, grapes and tobacco leaves, both need to be grown in a relatively picky environment to achieve the best results. At that time, to achieve the best climate conditions, we could only pray for God's blessing. Wine and cigars made from a small amount of grapes and tobacco grown in the best environment at the right time have become luxury goods.”

"Hehehe..." The Bosa man smiled and asked, "What about now?"

"Now? Ha, every day can be the most suitable climate." The bartender smiled and pulled out a cigar from under the bar, "Would you like one? It only costs 20 No. 4 coins. We also charge empire credits. The ratio to Coin No. 4 is one to five.”

As he spoke, he pointed to the poster on the wall next to him and said: "Have a cigar and be like the Inchori, the most powerful warriors in the galaxy, invincible! Hahaha. I want you to be mercenaries. , I should like it very much.”

"I don't want to get involved with an Inchori." The Bothan changed his posture and nudged a small team on the other side of the bar with his chin. Among the team, there was a man wearing heavy combat armor. The Incholi mercenary said: "That guy, 'Wrath' Trak, got high from smoking a cigar last month and ended up crushing the head of one of his Rodian companions."

"Haha, sir, we all know this. It seems like you really come to us often." The bartender laughed again, "But you don't often visit the late-night bar across the street, do you? I have to say , their wine is watered down.”

The Bosa man glanced at the bartender, suddenly showed a strange smile, and said: "No... I often go to the Royal No. 4 Bar two blocks away."

The bartender's expression suddenly changed, and he lowered his voice and said, "If you are involved with 'them'... I suggest you leave here."

The Bosa man had an unknown number of Imperial Credit Ingots in his hands. He pushed them over without leaving a trace and whispered, "I know that the Royal No. 4 Bar has been stepped on. It was once the largest slave bar in the colony. , the boss has more than 200 subordinates, even a rocket launcher. It looks like a bar, but in fact it is a large-scale slave trade. You can do whatever you want there... there are many slaves to serve you. ...What happened? It was wiped out suddenly..."

The bartender secretly took the credit ingot, touched the anti-counterfeiting mark on it, and whispered: "You are at least right about one thing, eliminate it. Royal Bar No. 4, from the boss down, including his subordinates, thugs, slaves, and even There were nearly 1,500 guests there that night, all of them were wiped out overnight, and there was not a single living person left. So, no matter what your relationship is with Royal No. 4, take my advice and don’t do it. There is no involvement whatsoever.”

"What... happened there?" the Bosa asked.

The bartender shook his head and said, "I don't know. It's not a good thing anyway."

But the Bosa man smiled again and said: "I heard that the Interstellar Banking Association (M) recently increased the acquisition ratio of Empire Credit Points, so in fact the ratio of Empire Credit Points to No. 4 Coin should be, one than six.”

As he spoke, he pushed over a few more Empire Credit Ingots.

When the bartender saw this, he suddenly smiled. He put all the credit ingots in with a flick of his sleeves, looked around, and said in a low voice: "One of the slave owners in the Royal Bar No. 4 bought a batch of meat tickets from the planet Seria. , there should be more than 20.”

As soon as he heard about the Seriya planet, the Bothans' eyes instantly became extremely sharp, and he pretended to be nonchalant and asked, "Is it possible that these 20 people escaped and killed all the more than a thousand people on Royal 4? hehe."

"They did it right, but it's not what you think." The bartender said, "That night, there was nothing unusual at the bar. But in the second half of the night, everything became silent. The next day, the perimeter was cordoned off It’s the battle robot force, but in fact it’s them who really entered the scene..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the bar was opened, and a group of soldiers wearing black combat uniforms walked in and said coldly: "Routine epidemic prevention inspection! Everyone must cooperate!"

The Bothans hid their eyes, but when they saw the epaulettes of those people, they still couldn't hide their anger.

That epaulette is a red and white umbrella logo! ! (End of chapter)
