Chapter 254: Galaxy Shock
252, Galaxy Shock
The Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser on alert in the sky also flew over the venue and lowered its altitude. However, they did not dare to attack with their powerful main guns, so they could only use close-defense turrets from a high position to clear out the B-1 combat robots.
Countless laser beams fell from the sky, accurately hitting every B-1 combat robot, regardless of whether they were out of control or not. This scene is like the end of the world with fire and rain falling from the sky!
There are also Jedi warriors helping to guard the venue. They are basically in the conference center. After the B-1 combat robots rioted, they were unable to do anything in the face of countless robot armies. They could only guard the door of the conference center to prevent those robots from rushing in.
But in fact, those robots did want to storm the convention center. Because after the massacre in Cesswenna Hall, their sensors found that the place with the most signs of life was in the conference center.
More than 20 Jedi blocked the door and fought desperately. In the hail of bullets, 3 Jedi apprentices died, and 5 other Jedi were injured and sent to the hospital.
However, what those rioting B-1 combat robots left behind at the entrance of the conference center were hundreds of densely packed wreckage!
Finally, after more than an hour, the rioting robots were finally wiped out. Of course, it would be better to say that the rioting robots were wiped out, rather than all the robots in the entire city of Eriadu being wiped out.
Not to mention, those robots that were ordered to be transferred directly outside the city were all destroyed by direct fire from the Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser.
After such a vicious incident happened, no one dared to believe in robots anymore.
Finis Valorum, Speaker of the Galactic Parliament, was very lucky. When the robot riot occurred, he had already entered the venue and was discussing today's meeting with Deputy Speaker Botan.
When the explosion occurred outside and gunshots continued to sound, he was stunned and completely unable to accept that such a thing had happened.
The mighty Galactic Republic held a business summit of the highest standard, but it was actually faced with a terrorist attack? !
What face does the Galactic Republic have?
What future does a republic like this have if it cannot protect even the highest-ranking people in its own country?
Phoenix Valoran, who was immediately protected by the Guards and sent to a safe shelter more than 200 meters underground, could not hold back his breath and spat out a large mouthful of blood.
"Why? Why did such a thing happen!! Check it out!! This matter must be investigated to the end!!" Finis Valoran grabbed the collar of the Minister of Security of the Republic as if he was furious roared like a grizzly bear.
Gross Shelbia, the representative of the fourth group, was originally assigned to the 27th convoy, so she was not affected by the riot. But this terrible riot still scared her so much that she could barely stand up.
From the live video, I saw those robots mercilessly killing everyone they saw, and those people were still alive at yesterday's meeting, and many of them had interacted with her.
But now, these people have turned into charred corpses!
After seeing a group of B-1 combat robots stepping through the pile of corpses and heading towards the conference center, the iron feet of these robots were covered with blood and minced meat from the trampled corpses. At that moment, Gross-Shelbia finally couldn't stand it any longer, turned off the video, rushed to a nearby garden, and vomited.
She didn’t understand until now that Tang Xiao’s repeated warnings were actually such a thing!
She, who has been responsible for the commercial affairs of the Fourth Group, never thought that she would experience such a terrifying scene! Perhaps, this is the bloody truth revealed after lifting the false and gorgeous fig leaf of the Galactic Republic!
...
The Eriadu Business Summit finally broke up. The meeting only lasted one day. After a fierce quarrel, it suffered a devastating terrorist attack early the next morning.
15,000 B-1 combat robots rushed into the Cesswenna Hall regardless of friend or foe and carried out a bloody and brutal massacre! Preliminary estimates put the number of casualties at more than 10,000 people, most of whom were venue staff and guard troops.
When the Army of the Republic suppressed the robot riot, it also suffered more than 3,000 casualties. Two of the legions were even killed after a firefight with robots that had a chaotic formation and were not dominant in number. The robots are defeated!
The weak nature of the Republic's military was fully exposed.
As it turned out, this was not over yet. Just an hour after the terrorist attack broke out, an organization called The Nebula Front issued a high-profile statement.
A female leader of this organization calling herself 'Havak' claimed that they would be responsible for the terrorist attack on the Eriadu Business Summit, and that their purpose was to let the entire galaxy see the Galactic Parliament The hypocritical nature of Chancellor Finis Valorum.
She called on all planets in the Outer Rim Sector to unite and resist the Galactic Republic's unwarranted taxation. Because the Republic only intends to collect taxes, but does not intend to assume any obligations to the Outer Rim Sector. The Republic's fleet will not protect them, and the Republic's finances will not open any cracks for them. All they want is to suck blood!
......
In the center of Eriadu, which is still filled with smoke and chaos, outside the Cesvenna Hall where the business summit was held, two vigorous figures were walking quickly among the ruins.
It was Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn and his apprentice Obi-Wan Kenobi!
"Master, do we have to do this? Master Windu just sent a message to all of us Jedi Knights involved in this security work, strictly ordering us to go to the conference center immediately and not to participate in any investigation work." Obi-Wan Kenobi said very worriedly.
"How can you not participate in the investigation! If this is the case, then the truth will only be buried! The Republic's military and law enforcement agencies are rotten to the root, and it is impossible to investigate the matter clearly!" Qui-Gon - Jin took Obi-Wan and jumped over a broken wall more than 5 meters high, and said with a serious face.
Obi-Wan thought about it seriously and said: "I think Master Windu should have his considerations. It is said that even the participation of our Jedi Knights failed to prevent the terrorist attack this time. Speaker Valorum is no longer here. Will trust our Jedi Order again. At this time..."
"I don't care whether Valoran trusts our Jedi Order, only Master Windu cares about this matter. , Just catch the real culprit this time! Compared with the politics in the parliament, this is what we Jedi should do." Qui-Gon Jin stopped and looked into the distance, "Such a terrorist attack is absolutely unacceptable. It can’t be done remotely, the other party must still be here!”
