Chapter 402 Broken Body
400, Broken Body
At this dinner, Tang Xiao reluctantly picked and ate some leaves that didn’t look so sharp, and he was half full. , came to the open space outside the Wind Erosion Spire.
Adela Kaitis is lying on the ground looking at the stars.
She has changed to a more comfortable position. Although she will be in agony at the time of the tearing and pain of her soul, it will not actually cause any damage to her body. If it must be said, That was the result of struggling and screaming.
But now for this talented girl who has been practicing in the Jedi Order since birth, this means the collapse of her entire belief.
In fact, even though Tang Xiao was so cruel to her, it was herself who really made her fall to the dark side.
Her biggest weakness is her emotional richness, which was clearly seen by Darth Maul as soon as they fought. Because of this, even though she already has the strength of a Jedi Knight, she has always been just an apprentice.
After experiencing her master being killed, herself being captured, auctioned, and later killed, her heart was filled with fear. She is afraid of death...
However, what keeps her from collapsing until now is her belief in and pursuit of light. But when she saw how far Count Dooku, who was almost a representative of the light, had fallen, she could no longer bear it.
Tang Xiao, who walked behind her, clearly saw a line of tears sliding down her cheeks.
"Go back to the spaceship and have something to eat." Tang Xiao said coldly.
"Don't go! Just let me starve to death here!" Edela turned her face away and said harshly.
Tang Xiao walked over, picked her up without any explanation and walked towards the spaceship.
Adela originally wanted to struggle, but when she felt Tang Xiao's warm breath on his chest, she stopped again. Maybe she was just afraid of this man's terrible torture. Her lack of resistance at this time was just Temporarily, Edela began to lie to herself.
However, it was different from what Edela thought. After returning to the spacecraft, Tang Xiao threw her to the ground with a flick of his hand. He added a kick and said coldly: "Go to the warehouse to find something to eat. Otherwise, I will really It will starve you to death, then resurrect you, repeat 20 times."
After that, he locked her in the warehouse and walked out.
Tang Xiao returned to the underground base. Count Dooku had already left the planet Geonosis. He was impatient to go to the Golden Nice Shipyard owned by the Hiigara Aerospace Company of the Fourth Group.
The Golden Nice Shipyard was occupied by the Incholi people during the previous rebellion. Later, Tang Xiao used a small trick. After the Incholi people were defeated and surrendered, he took the Incholi people's mortgage The agreement was then robbed by force.
Afterwards, the Fourth Group and the Trade Alliance began to cooperate, with Hiigara Aerospace Corporation coming forward. The two parties jointly developed and built Hiigaran-class battlecruisers at the Golden Nice Shipyard. However, the Trade Alliance mainly provides money, people and materials, while Higra Aerospace Corporation provides technology.
Now the Higra-class battlecruiser has begun secret trials. It is the first new generation of kilometer-class battlecruiser in the entire galaxy, and it is a battleship that completely ignores the restrictions of the Rusan Treaty, which is of epoch-making significance.
No wonder Count Dooku was so interested in it that he rushed over. However, Tang Xiao also understood that the Hiigara-class battlecruiser must have been leaked to Speaker Palpatine. Both Newt Gunray and Count Dooku were actually Palpatine's people. Maybe Palpatine will make some fuss about this battlecruiser.
Well, maybe discomfort, that’s almost certain!
Of course, even if Palpatine tried his best, he would not know that to the Fourth Civilization, the Hiigaran-class battlecruisers were for sale. Their real capital ship in the early stage was the Cole-class battlecruiser. Compared to the combat performance of the Cole-class, the Higra-class was indeed a product that had been eliminated before it even came out.
I went to the living room and had a casual chat with Thorn Hill. It seemed that after the experience of sitting on the table together, Thorn Hill also relaxed a little. He may have thought that Darth Malthael, a terrifying being who was almost the spokesman of death, would never get under the table, so he believed Tang Xiao's statement and thought that Malthael was the person standing behind Tang Xiao. Just like his relationship with Malthael.
With this relationship, San-Hir also became much closer to Tang Xiao. After he learned that the Trade Federation was cooperating with the Fourth Group to develop the Higra-class battlecruiser, he also tentatively asked Let’s see if there are any similar cooperation projects. After all, it would be fine if the Interstellar Banking Association did not want to go to war, but now that it is determined to go to war, the combat effectiveness of the Generosity-class communication frigate is really not enough.
However, Tang Xiao just smiled faintly and said that this thing needs to wait for the approval of 'that adult', and he also told Thorn-Ciel that the secret of the Higra-class battlecruiser has been leaked to the Galactic Republic. Went over there. So if you want to cooperate, you must be prepared. This will be a top-secret project that only a few of them can know about.
After a while, the Bogle-Inferior sent a message saying that Grievous had woken up, and that Grievous's own wishes needed to be confirmed before further transformation.
“I think we should have a good talk with this ‘demigod’.” Thorn Hill showed a cruel smile.
The two came to the medical laboratory again. Grievous's body had been put into a bacta tank again, and some of his organs had been replaced with machinery, which allowed his life to be maintained.
【I...am I dead? ] Grievous's voice was electronically synthesized from a device connected to his throat.
"You are not dead, Grievous. You are still alive, although the current situation is not very good." Thornhill said with a wicked smile.
【Where am I now? 】
"Geonosis, a planet on the edge of the Milky Way. You are lucky, Grievous. Our spaceship to deliver goods to the planet Kali received a distress signal when it passed through the Zenua Sea. When we fished you out, you had been in the sea for most of the day," Thornhill said.
[My spaceship was shot down. ] Grievous's voice darkened.
“It’s a pity that this happened, but it shouldn’t have been like this. Because you were still on the planet of Kali at the time, and no matter how rampant the Yamrayi people were, they didn’t have the guts to mess around on the planet of Kali. . So...although this guess may not be appropriate, there was indeed a local defense fleet of the Galactic Republic operating around at that time," San-Hir said.
【I want to return to the planet Kali immediately! My people are still threatened by those lowly Harks! ! 】
"I'm afraid it's not that easy, Grievous. Your body has been almost completely destroyed, leaving only a few organs intact. In fact, even to maintain your current state, It will cost a lot of money every minute," San Hill said while rubbing his chin, "Moreover, the contract between us has not ended yet, let alone your breach of contract, and now something like this has happened... To be honest, we are no longer in a position to help you.”
[Just give me three more days! I can completely wipe out those Hackers! ] Grievous roared angrily.
