Chapter 365 The Death of the Dark Lord (Part 2)
363. The Death of the Dark Lord (Part 2)
"If you want to kill me... never think about it!!" Darth - Plagueis raised his hand and fired a bolt of lightning towards Sidious. With the neurotoxin in his body, he had only this option now.
"It doesn't need to last forever! It's now!!" Darth Sidious also sent out a powerful lightning, and two terrifying forces collided in the air.
Darth Plagueis is much stronger than Sidious, but now he is poisoned with neurotoxin, and the toxin is directly in his breathing mask! If the mask is removed, he will not be able to breathe, and by continuing to wear the mask, neurotoxins will continue to be drawn into his body.
However, for Darth Plagueis, who is proficient in the Force of Life, none of this is a problem! As long as he is given time to breathe, he can easily remove these toxins.
"You underestimate me! Sidious! When you were obsessed with power, I was already exploring the nature of the Force and the mystery of immortality! But you have been standing still! I have long You know, strong men and politics can't be linked! Because it will distract you!" The power of the lightning he sent increased again, and Sidious was already a little nervous. Unable to resist.
"You have failed! Surrender! There is still a way to survive! Being a puppet speaker is better than being wiped out!" Plagueis said proudly.
"Surrender? Hahahaha... Didn't you call the guards just now? Aren't you surprised why the Echani Sun Guards you brought haven't shown up yet? Hahahaha!" Darth-Si Dios smiled ferociously.
Darth Plagueis was startled, "You!..."
"Yes, your Sun Guard has been bribed by me! Thull Wulain, the supreme guard captain, has already sworn allegiance to me! They are going upstairs, and soon, you will die in your most loyal guard "Subordinates!" The lightning in Darth Sidious's hand suddenly began to change, from the previous aggressive form to a defensive form. Now he only needs to wait for enough time to slowly wait for Plague. Si's death.
"Hmph! Do you think you can buy everything?" Plagueis snorted. Almost at the same time, gunshots and explosions came from outside. It seemed that someone was fighting, "Tul -Ulan, he was always mine! It was me who trained him!"
"It's useless! - No matter how loyal Ulan is, he is just one person! You have no idea how much I spent to buy the Echani Sun Guards!" Darth Sidious looked extremely ferocious.
"Hahahaha!!" Plagueis laughed loudly, "If the Sun Guard is your trump card, then today is my victory!!"
"Let's go Look, master! The one who died must be you!" Sidious yelled.
…
Five minutes ago.
On a spire outside, Darth Malthael raised his hand and looked at the message sent on the communicator. This message was pre-edited by Darth Plagueis. It read, 'Come into my room immediately and follow my instructions.' After tonight, we will sit at the pinnacle of galactic power! ’
“Very tempting words.” Darth Malthael sneered, crushed the communicator and threw it away.
He looked at the Taldani spire building opposite, which although it was brightly lit outside, was dark at the core. From here, he couldn't tell what was going on inside, and he had no idea who was benefiting from the current situation, so he couldn't judge.
According to the development of the plot, Darth Plagueis was easily killed by Sidious in a drunken state, but now he can still send this message, which means that the situation has indeed changed.
His face also looked a little solemn. He had been waiting for this day for three full years! In the past three years, he could be said to have cared deeply about Plagueis, and even handed over nominal control of the Fourth Group, just to gain Plagueis's trust.
Why can Gross-Shelbia still only be said to be a representative of the Fourth Group? Because the director of the Fourth Group is Hego Damask II! Plagueis' trust in Tang Xiao did not come out of thin air.
The reason why Tang Xiao was willing to pay such a high price was that he knew that Plagueis would die in three years!
In other words, if Plagueis doesn't die, everything will be empty talk. Everything about him will be taken away by Plagueis, including himself.
Now when this day really comes, Malthael is still uneasy in his heart.
Things have changed! Plagueis was on guard! It must have been during his final trial on the planet Hyperion that he inspired the remnant of Darth Tenebrous in Plagueis' body, thus making Plagueis aware of his lack of precognitive ability!
So what to do now? If he rushes in, he might actually kill Sidious and completely rewrite the plot. But in this way, he will lose everything, but at least he can survive as Plagueis's only apprentice.
If Darth Tenebrous were to take action according to the original plan, it would be okay to ensure the death of Darth Plagueis. If not, then it would anger Plagueis. Then, next, he, including the entire fourth civilization, will be wiped out by Plagueis's wrath!
One road is a humiliating road of survival, while the other is an unknown road that is half death and half glory.
Darth Malthael's eyes were cold and he shouted sternly: "Tenebrous, it's up to you! Kill Plagueis! Now!!"
However, Darth Tenebrous did not take action immediately. A black smoke flew out from Malthael's lightsaber and flew in front of him to form a human face. It looked at Malthael for a while, and then He said slowly: "Yes, this is my best choice now."
After saying that, the black mist rolled towards the Taldani steeple building.
Darth Malthael looked at the black mist with a strong murderous intent in his eyes. At this moment, he also saw signs of a firefight inside the building. Gunshots and explosions began to be heard, but because of the good sound insulation of the building, if he had not used the Force, he would have been basically inaudible.
...
Inside the room in the building, this competition has reached its most critical moment.
Darth Plagueis, who is constantly inhaling neurotoxins, is gradually unable to support himself, and the gunshots outside the door are getting closer and closer. It is obvious that if the Sun Guards who are still loyal to him come, they will definitely There is no need to shoot. There is only one possibility. The person approaching is someone bribed by Sidious!
But... there is still a chance! There is another trump card! Darth Malthael! !
Plagues roared in his heart, I control everything about him! His honor and disgrace are bound to me! His little colony and little planet are all mine! He can only choose to help me! And I have given him the highest promise! After tonight, he will become the second most powerful person in the entire galaxy, second only to me!
He will definitely come! affim!
However, at this moment, suddenly a figure flashed in front of Darth Plagueis, and he actually saw...
"Master?" Plagueis cried out.
The person who appeared in front of him was Darth Tenebrous! !
Only seeing Tenebrous charging towards him with a ferocious smile, an extremely strong sense of crisis suddenly filled every midi-chlorian in Plagueis' body!
At this moment, his precognitive ability came back! And this ability is trying its best to tell Plagueis...
You are not far from death!
At the same time, Darth Plagueis felt as if his body was empty. All the force had left him, and his whole body felt empty.
Although this situation only lasted for less than a second, it was enough for Sidious! !
"Power!! Endless power! (Power! UnlimitedPower!)!!" Sidious roared loudly, concentrating all his power into lightning, and struck Plagueis! !
