1139. Pang Krel’s Betrayal (Part 2)
“Angel of Death? This name should not appear here! "Pon-Krel said in a nonchalant manner, "This matter needs to be kept highly confidential. Who else knows?"
"I am the only one who knows, and then you, General." "Clone Commander. said.
“The name of the Dead Angel appeared on the planet Umbala. This matter is no small matter! Maybe this battle is not so simple. I will handle this matter. You continue to do your work. The Dead Angel is here. These three words must not be told to anyone! Otherwise, you will be charged with leaking secrets!" Pang Krel lowered his voice and said, "Now, let the tower be blocked and no one is allowed to approach!"
"Yes!" The clone commander stood at attention and saluted, replying firmly.
Pang Krel waved his hand to ask him to leave as soon as possible, and then walked quickly towards the tower.
More than a dozen heavily armed clone soldiers have arrived around the tower and blocked it off.
Pang Krel came to the control center of the tower and saw an encrypted communication flashing. However, the content of this communication was encrypted, but there was a clear signature - the deceased angel. , just like being afraid of being invisible to others.
Opening the communication, the content of the communication was only a short line of text, and unexpectedly, Pon-Krel read the content directly - 'I am, the Angel of Death'!
Pon-Krel frowned, because this communication was not actually encrypted communication, but was written in the language of the ancient Sith Empire. The clone troopers didn't deliberately use the decoder to compile it, but just blinked and looked at it, and they really didn't recognize it.
But as a Jedi Master, you should definitely know this kind of writing!
In other words, this communication is for the Jedi to read!
Pang Krel hesitated and clicked on the message again. There was a rustling sound from the encrypted communication terminal. After a few seconds, a voice came from the communicator.
"Master Pon-Krel, it seems that you have made up your mind."
Pon-Krel narrowed his eyes. The voice sounded young and not energetic, as if the person was weak and tired.
There is no oppression from the powerful dark side force, nor that eerie aura. It seems that on the other end of the encrypted communication in hyperspace, there is just a sick young man.
Such a person cannot be a Sith Lord or a Death Angel!
Pon-Krel's tone gradually became colder, "I don't want to make any jokes, kid. You are talking to a Jedi Master!"
"Don't... Make assumptions about my identity, Master Krell. Because now, only I can save your life from your stupid plan." The voice said.
"The capital of the planet Umbala is about to be captured! The Galactic Republic will usher in another decisive victory! I don't need anyone to care about my own life." Pang Krell said coldly.
"Decisive victory? On the planet Umbala? Hehehehehe..." The voice laughed sarcastically, "If this really happens, then you will be very disappointed, right? "
"What exactly do you want to say?" Pang Krel was shocked.
“You have seen the failure of the Galactic Republic, the destruction of the Jedi Order, and... the establishment of a new order, very good... This shows that your Force precognition is stronger than most Jedi Master, that's fine. You want to bury two entire clone legions of the Galactic Republic on the planet Umbala, as a stepping stone for you to pursue the power and status you desire in the new order." said the voice.
"Are you really an angel of death?" Pang Krel was shocked beyond measure, because this was the secret he had hidden deep in his heart, and no one knew it except himself! !
But now, the sickly voice on the other end of the communicator said it all! !
“I am the Governor of Dawn Planet, Tang Xiao, and I am drinking afternoon tea now. So, don’t pay attention to my voice, I just want to be honest with you, instead of playing with those false so-called momentums. ." Tang Xiao said calmly, "Your feeling is not wrong, Tang Xiao, I have not been in good health these days."
He was telling the truth, but after saying it in this way, it only made me feel uncomfortable. It will make Pang Krel think in another direction.
Tang Xiao is indeed in very poor health now. After using the Dark Reaper to drain away the powerful and violent dark side force from Karnes-Mur, his own strength is also extremely weak. .
It just so happened that at this time, the situation on the planet Umbala, which he had been telling the intelligence department to pay attention to, changed again, and he had to respond to this. Master Pon-Krell, a war hero of the Jedi Order, is also a very powerful lightsaber duelist and can be said to be the perfect fighter.
In the original plot, he wanted to destroy the Galactic Republic's operations during the Battle of Umbala, and took this as an opportunity to defect to the dark side. However, he misjudged the loyalty and determination of the clone soldiers, and ultimately Falling short of success.
Now, Tang Xiao would never want to miss such a thug who could be said to be coming to his door. However, his current condition is really not good, so he can only frighten Pang Krel first with half-truths and half-deceptions.
Master Pon-Krell completely believed this time, because Tang Xiao, the governor of the Dawn Planet, was the Sith Lord who had been lingering behind the dark curtain of the galaxy since the beginning of the war - the Death Angel. This information has been conveyed to some Jedi masters who have many combat missions.
As one of the most active frontline Jedi masters, Pang Krell naturally knows this top-secret information.
He said seriously: "The Jedi Order has long been corrupted. They have become the lackeys of the Republic and will surely perish with the fall of the Republic. This is not the ending I want..."
"You have seen a lot of things. , but also missed a lot of things. You made the right decision, the new order is about to be established, and the Jedi Order will be destroyed with the establishment of the new order. But your problem is that you want to be alone. What is it?" Tang Xiao asked.
"I want strength! Power! Wealth! I want to be above everything else!" Pon-Krel clenched his fists.
"Then I suggest that you go to Count Dooku. The Confederation of Independent Systems can easily satisfy these things, especially for a powerful Jedi Master like you." Tang Xiao's voice was different. There's a hint of teasing.
"Why is it Count Dooku instead of coming to you? If the information I got is correct, Count Dooku is not the Sith Lord, is he?" Pang Krel's face sank.
"Yes, Count Dooku's name, the so-called Darth Tyranus, is not recorded in the Book of Sith. He is indeed not a Sith Lord." Tang Xiao said.
"Then why..."
"Ah, because you don't deserve it."
"What did you say?!"
"Hehehehe... Poor Pang Krel, do you really think that winning a few battles will make you valuable in my eyes? No, no, your value is not even comparable to that of Umbala." Tang Xiao sneered. road.
"You are looking for me because of the planet Umbala?!" Pang Krel's chest rose and fell rapidly, and the anger in his chest was building.
"That's right. The fleet of the Federation of Independent Systems cannot stop you from landing directly near the capital of Umbala, so in the face of your surprise attack, their capital cannot be defended for too long." Tang Xiao said, "And The little tricks you did in the clone army did nothing to help the entire war situation. "
"This is your incompetence and weakness!" Pang! - Krell growled.
"Well, then the destruction of the Jedi Order and the Galactic Republic in this wave that spread across the entire galaxy is just your incompetence and weakness. What does it have to do with me?" Tang Xiao retorted.
"What do you want?" Pang Krel finally suppressed the anger in his heart and asked in a deep voice.
"Help the Confederacy of Independent Systems to win victory on the Umbala planet. Come back alive and go to Count Dooku. Then... when you are ready to face the real darkness, come to me again." Tang Xiao said.
“What do I need to do?”
“Count Dooku’s dark disciple Asajj Ventress is coming to the planet Umbala, but the Confederacy currently does not have enough mobile fleets to send it. There are too many robot troops coming, so you need to slow down the clone troops and give the Umbala more time to mobilize reinforcements. This is the right way to win... instead of engaging in whatever self-conflict you planned. Killing will only expose you faster."
