The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge

797. The Cloud of Geth

The capital of the Galactic Republic, Coruscant.

In the meeting hall at the top of the central tower of the Jedi Temple, including Master Yoda, members of the Supreme Council of the Jedi Order, including Ice Koss, Plo Kong, Sass Tin, and Auber Lanzixis They all came here to discuss the recent attack in the wild star field of the Milky Way, the Perrin star sector.

Among them, Sass-Tin joined the meeting via hyperspace communication.

Now the battles in all aspects are very urgent, because Severance Tann is attacking the headquarters of the Second Army of the Republic on the Nubian planet after converging the Trade Alliance fleet, so Master Windu personally went to the front line to take command and was unable to participate in this meeting.

At the same time, Master Depa-Biraba was also fighting hard on the Harunkar planet, and had not heard from her for a month or two.

Except for Master Shakti stationed on Kamino planet, there are other people who have missions, and Master Adi Gallia who has been confirmed dead, the Supreme Council of Twelve can still reach the scene now, only they are left Five people.

Not to mention that Master Yoda needs to sit in Coruscant, and Master Plo-Kong still needs to recover from the injuries he suffered when he was attacked by the battleship Fang, and now the Supreme Council can only use it. , Sass-Ting and Opal-Lanzixis these three people!

"Baloy has confirmed the sacrifice, and he has felt this in the original force." Pulo-Kong said.

"My fleet has arrived in the Valk galaxy and launched a search and rescue operation. Judging from the current situation, the more than 1.4 million residents on the Valk planet may be in danger, and the specific situation needs further investigation." Sass-Ting said, it turns out The reason why he participated in the meeting remotely was because he had already been to the scene of the Valker galaxy.

"One thing that concerned me a lot is that Baroy had already retreated from the planet Valk and even sent out a distress signal. Why did he die after that? What happened?" Ice-Kose frowned. Said with a frown.

"This is indeed unreasonable. It stands to reason that since he has already retreated and waited for help, and the Supreme Strategic Command at that time has given him an order not to leave and wait in place, he shouldn't run around." - Kong said.

Sass-Ting said: "Baloy's spacecraft is not on the planet Valk. Now our sensors are scanning the entire galaxy in order to find their traces, but it will take some time. Most importantly, we don't know what he is. Have you left this galaxy?"

Master Yoda had a solemn face, and slowly said with a cane: "The seventh attack is on the Valk planet. A new enemy has appeared, I feel it. It is very important to find the trace of the enemy."

At this time, from the holographic projection of Sass-Ting, a figure of a clone commander appeared, and he gave a military salute to Sass-Ting and said: "General Sass, our cheerer-class assault landing ship has already arrived. Entering the planet's atmosphere, the landing is about to begin!"

"Okay, start landing immediately! Pay attention to the search for survivors, let the Cheerers try not to shoot directly, and use more LAAT assault transport boats for air support." Sass-Ting said, "Pay attention to those living dead. According to the report, These undead are much harder to deal with than the virus-infected ones we encountered on Christopher Sis."

"yes!"

Sass-Ting turned to the communicator, and said to Master Yoda and others: "I will sit in a battleship in space, report the combat situation to you at any time, and guard against possible space forces from the enemy."

"Thank you for this battle. Finding clues is more important." Master Yoda nodded.

On the surface of the Valk planet, two Cheer-class assault landing ships have entered the atmosphere, and 11,000 clone troopers of the Galactic Republic embarked on a large number of LAAT/I assault transport ships to start landing operations.

Teams of clone troopers descended to the ground, quickly established positions, and then attacked under the powerful fire support of AT-TE walkers.

Their goal is the largest cluster of undead near this colony. Judging from the situation obtained from aerial reconnaissance, this cluster stretches for 4 to 5 square kilometers, and the number is more than 100,000!

Because the opponents were all these living dead, the clone army did not land in the city, but directly landed in an open area near the corpse group, and directly launched an extermination campaign against the living dead.

After reducing the power of the turbo laser cannon, the Cheerer-class assault landing ship bombed the corpse puppets on the ground without damaging other things as much as possible. Terrible explosions continued to set off on the ground, and countless corpse puppets were bombed. gotta smash.

The LAAT assault transport boat also unscrupulously licked the ground with full firepower. Without considering the opponent's counterattack, there is nothing more enjoyable than driving a gunboat to lick the ground.

On the front, the clone troopers formed a small group and began to attack. Cooperating with AT-TE walkers and AT-XT walkers, they built a powerful frontal firepower network. It took several shots from the rifle to kill one, and in the face of those high-power artillery fire, it was still wiped out in pieces.

The fight went very well.

As the front line advanced, some technicians also took the shuttle down immediately to collect samples of the corpse puppets for analysis.

"General, according to preliminary analysis, there is basically no moisture inside these corpses, they are completely dry, and the internal tissues of the body have also undergone alienation, and the epidermis has become very tough. It is difficult for ordinary blades to leave scars on their skin. And Because the heat dissipation of the skin has also been improved, they also have a certain resistance to blaster rifles." The technician said.

Sass-Ting also forwarded the news to Master Yoda.

"How do they move? What are those blue dots?" Ith-Kose asked.

"This seems to be a nano-scale control device. After the control device is injected, it moves to the key position of the body through the empty blood vessels of these corpses, providing energy and manipulating the corpse. The blue dots we see , is the energy node. This kind of energy is very efficient, at least it can support the movement of this corpse for a month." The technician said.

"But even if this is the case, this kind of living dead still does not pose a threat to the regular army... If those infected with the T virus are the by-products of the use of Injoli biological weapons on the Dawn Star, then the enemies here? Why go to such lengths to create such a useless undead?" Suss-Ting frowned and thought.

Master Yoda let out a long sigh, and slammed his cane heavily on the ground, "The meaning of fear, these living dead."

Pulo-Kong nodded, and said: "Indeed, if these enemies create these undead to attack the colony, this terrifying form can indeed cause panic and lower the morale of the defenders, so that they have no intention of resisting. Then through interference Block the colony's communications, and the people in this colony will soon fall into despair and chaos in fear, and finally be easily captured."

"In Baloy's report, these living dead were impaled on steel thorns. Have you found any steel thorns?" Sass Ting asked.

"General, we didn't find any steel thorns." The clone commander replied.

At this moment, a communication came in suddenly, "Report! We found General Baloy's spaceship!"
