The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge.

Chapter 2483 The Resistance of the Lower Class (IV)

2484: The Resistance of the Lower Class (IV)

Orson Krennic immediately gathered all the Death Guards, about 200 people per company, and then gathered the stormtroopers on the battleships of the squadron to protect the interior of the battleships, a total of about 3000 people. He personally led the team and flew towards the Death Star under construction on a transport ship.

Now, the battle around the Death Star was in chaos, with some TIE fighters flying around the Death Star and firing at it. Some fighters even flew directly into the Death Star and bombarded the target.

Because the Geonosians occupied the spaceport on the planet Talasia and obtained some fighter jets, now that communications have not been restored, they have no idea which side's fighter jets are fighting.

The transport ship flew towards the Death Star under the escort of a squadron of fighter jets. At the same time, the garrison squadron also began to advance and directly surrounded the Death Star.

Orson Krennic was very nervous, but with the assurance of the two dark prophets, he still came along.

This army is elite, especially the Death Guard in black power armor. They are like tigers among a flock of sheep when facing the Geonosians.

Most of the Geonosians who revolted were laborers. They received some weapons and robbed some arsenals to arm themselves, but their armed rate was still no more than one-third. The rest of the Geonosians still had some tools in their hands. If it weren't for the huge number and the Imperial army's complete lack of defense, this would have been a one-sided massacre.

The weapons in the hands of the Geonosian laborers were at most some blaster rifles, and most of them were smuggled from the black market, so they could only be used. They were barely strong enough to face the polymer alloy armor of the stormtroopers, let alone the Death Guards!

Those low-powered blaster rifles were barely scratching the Death Guard's black power armor.

The two dark prophets walked in front, with Daala holding a double-headed lightsaber and Tana holding an ordinary single-edged lightsaber, with the plasma blades all blood-red. All the blaster beams fired by the Geonosian laborers were blocked by them and even bounced back!

The Dark Prophet specializes in Force foresight, and they also use their foresight to provide opinions and suggestions to the Emperor of the Empire. But don't think that they are just a group of civilians without combat capabilities. On the contrary, Force foresight is the most terrifying combat capability!

The lightsabers in the hands of Prophet Daala and Prophet Tana did not seem to be swung very fast, but the blaster beams shot from all angles by the flying Geonosian laborers were all bounced back! They killed dozens of Geonosians just by bouncing their lightsabers!

Not only that, they also commanded their own stormtroopers to seize advantageous terrain first and block the attack direction of the Geonosians in advance. In order to facilitate their command, Orson Krennic assigned all the clone soldiers in this patchwork force to them.

The Death Guard always guards Orson Krennic to ensure his safety.

I only saw Prophet Dara raise his hand and point in a direction, saying without turning his head: "Fire."

Without hesitation, the clone stormtroopers turned their guns and fired at the empty space! But then, dozens of Geonosian laborers flew over, one of them holding a rocket launcher!

However, the moment these Geonosian laborers flew over, they happened to encounter the sky-sweeping fire, just like they were close to it, and most of them were killed in a few seconds, and even the precious rocket launcher was lost. The few remaining laborers had already lost their courage and fled with their wings flapping.

But this was not the end. Prophet Tana raised her hand and the rocket launcher that was falling from mid-air suddenly fired. The rocket hit a cabin under construction above, where more than a dozen Geonosian workers were trying to set up an E-WEB blaster machine gun.

Boom!!! The workers in the cabin and the machine gun were instantly blown to pieces!

Orson Krennic watched the battle between the two dark prophets and felt terrified. They were like omniscient and almighty gods, controlling every corner of the battlefield. He had never been on the battlefield before, but he felt incomparable shock and even fear from these two dark prophets!

It turns out that the Force is so terrifying!

But what followed was a burst of ecstasy.

"Haha...haha...hahahaha!! Yes! Mr. Prophet, that's it! Kill all those disgusting bugs! Kill them all! Hahahahaha!" He laughed wildly.

However, no one paid any attention to him. The Dark Prophet was still directing the battle, and the Death Guards beside him were still silently hunting down every target that approached. His arrogant laughter was soon drowned out by the countless gunshots and explosions.

This improvised force was so powerful that the Geonosians could not even imagine it. The Dark Prophet and the Death Guard were not elite troops that the laborers could come into contact with. They were quickly killed and the road to the energy core of the DS-1 battle station was opened.

It's called going to the energy core, but in fact, we only need to control the energy supply center. The energy core of the DS-1 battle station has been installed and is now in the center of the entire spherical structure. It is wrapped in extremely thick armor and will not have any problems even if it is bombed by heavy proton torpedoes.

Of course, the ventilation duct reserved in advance by Galen Erso was naturally installed as well, but the Death Star is still far from entering the completion acceptance stage, and such loopholes are still hidden in the enormous amount of engineering work.

Orson Krennic led his team of engineers into the energy control room and began to use the DS-1's enormous energy supply to build a new source of electronic interference.

While he was working, the Dark Prophet was not idle either. He continued to lead the stormtroopers to hunt down the Geonosian laborers who had been dispersed.

However, at this moment, Prophet Tana suddenly turned around and looked at an unfinished frame structure above. Almost at the same time, more than ten pieces of metal raw materials nearby suddenly flew out and smashed over like a cannonball!

Bang! Bang! The metal collision made a loud and clear sound, but nothing was hit. Only some imperceptible distortion flashed in the air.

"What did you see?" Prophet Dara asked, turning back.

"There is a killer." Prophet Tana's eyes were stern. "Invisible. According to the intelligence, it is possible that it is a ghost agent from the Kingdom of Dawn."

"But I don't sense any danger to Orson Krennic..." Prophet Dara frowned.

"As long as we are here, he will be safe." Prophet Tana said proudly.

Prophet Daala nodded. "Since you are more sensitive to these invisible agents, you stay here. I will continue to suppress the Geonosians."

"Okay." Prophet Tana nodded, and she looked up at the space above. After completion, this will be a branch control center of the Death Star, mainly responsible for the maintenance and organization of energy transportation in the southern hemisphere of the Death Star. There are charging stations reserved for engineering robots here, as well as work and living spaces for engineering teams, technicians, and scientists.

However, the internal construction here has not been completed, and the instruments and equipment have not been installed, so the construction materials and equipment that have been transported are everywhere, making the terrain here very complicated. It is indeed a good place for assassination.

Prophet Tana snorted coldly, walked behind Orson Krennic, sat down cross-legged, placed the hilt of the lightsaber in front of her, and closed her eyes to meditate. At this moment, she had completely spread her Force, and within the space of hundreds of meters around her, not even a nail could escape her perception.

However, there was nothing. The transparent figure that had flashed by just now had disappeared.

……

Nova was standing far away in another cabin that was also unfinished, looking at Orson Krennic across the scaffolding.

She had originally planned to kill a few engineers, but unexpectedly she found that there were dark Jedi here, and the bald woman was very perceptive and immediately discovered her presence.

"What a troublesome fellow..." Nova muttered to herself as she looked over there, "Since the plan is to keep Orson Krennic alive, I might as well play with you."

She smiled coldly, knelt on one knee, and held the C-10 sniper rifle in her hand steadily, without any trembling in her hands. She first put the scope on the bald woman's head covered with runes, then moved it away and aimed at the back of Krennic's head.

Then, she gently pressed a button on the gun with her left thumb and selected a special bullet.

In many previous battles and special operations, Nova had fought against the dark Jedi Knights under Darth Sidious many times, so she was naturally familiar with the combat characteristics of these Jedi Knights.

When dealing with these Jedi Knights, you must not target them directly, otherwise, they will be sensed by the Force and react in advance.

Therefore, to take them out, it is best to take an indirect approach, such as...

Nova licked her lips and whispered to herself, "Come on, baby, let me see what you're made of..." Then she pulled the trigger.

Puff! With a slight sound, a bullet instantly shot out of the gun and hit the back of Orson Krennic's head!

Sure enough, the bald woman immediately looked in his direction, and at the same time, the lightsaber in front of her was unsheathed, as if grabbed by an invisible hand, and chopped directly at the bullet!

But... a sneer appeared on Nova's lips.

Bang! The bullet suddenly exploded, and countless tiny steel needles shot out in all directions in an instant! At such a distance and density, the Jedi Knight would never be able to react! Moreover, those steel needles were fired in all directions. At the moment the bullet was fired, the back of Orson Krennic's head, which looked the most dangerous, was actually the safest place.

However, at this moment, countless steel plates suddenly flew up, as if countless shields directly blocked the steel needles! Then the bald woman disappeared!

"Damn it! How did this guy do it?" Nova cursed inwardly with gritted teeth, turned around and ran without hesitation.

"Where do you want to go?" As soon as she turned around, she heard a low and cold voice coming from the front.

Without any pause, Nova threw out an electrified flying needle with her backhand, and then rolled back and tried to run! However, just as she took a step back, she suddenly stepped on empty air, and the scaffolding under her feet collapsed instantly, and she stumbled and fell down.

Prophet Tana sneered and waved her hand. Dozens of steel bars flew up and stabbed directly in the direction where Nova fell! Moreover, she did not stop moving. She waved her hand again, and a device more than one meter long flew up and smashed in the other direction.

Whoosh! A grappling hook shot out and flew over there with Nova, and all the steel bars fell into the air. However, with a bang, Nova, who had just dodged the steel bars, was hit directly by the device and was thrown several meters away.

Although her expression couldn't be seen under the full-coverage helmet, the blow was definitely not light!

"The moment you appeared, you were already locked by my Force. No matter how much you run, it's useless." Prophet Tana said coldly, "I foresaw every move you make. I even know that you plan to throw a grenade in three seconds."

"You idiot!" Nova cursed, and a psychic energy shock suddenly spread out!

Prophet Tana was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously raised her hand to block, forming a force barrier to completely block the psychic impact. But after this opportunity, Nova had already run away.

"A Force-sensitive person..." Prophet Tana muttered to herself, "I underestimated you."

……

Nova's operation failed, and Prophet Tana did not dare to leave Orson Krennic too far, and continued to protect him here and completed her work.

As an extremely powerful interference wave began to spread, all communications in the entire Death Star engineering area, including the surface of the planet Talasia, were indiscriminately attacked by this interference wave!

This time it's the Geonosians' turn to be cut off from communications!

Of course, the communications of the Galactic Empire were also interfered with, but Orson Krennic used his jammer to open backdoors one by one and put his own communication nodes on the whitelist. The communications of the Imperial Army began to gradually recover.

Immediately afterwards, countless combat information came in like snowflakes, clearly showing the current bad and almost collapsing war situation to Orson Krennic.

All Geonosians have betrayed, and they have also taken control of the engineering robots to join the rebellion. The spaceport has been captured, the weapons depot has been captured, the fighters have been looted, and the shield projector is under attack!

Hearing this news, Orson Krennic turned pale. He knew that he was finished...

Prophet Dara was very calm. He shouted an order: "Send out a commando immediately to attack the Geonosian Queen's lair directly!!"

However, at this moment, a shrill alarm suddenly sounded from the communicator!

All that was heard was the hysterical voice of the radar operator of the Destroyer Star Destroyer, "An unregistered large-scale hyperspace jump has been detected!!!"
