The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge.

Chapter 2730 White Lotus Group

2730, White Lotus Group
Back then, the main instructors of the Twilight Covenant were still the Jedi Masters—Green Beatty and Aiden Ward—who were resurrected by Tang Xiao at the beginning. The main students were only a dozen or so children with Force talents who were discovered from Dawn Planet.

At 16 or 7 years old, Sorea Cohen was already the oldest student in Twilight Covenant. After her, more students who were over the age limit joined the group.

The Protoss didn't pay much attention to these older trainees, so they received limited training and ultimately didn't achieve much in terms of Force prowess.

However, Sorea Cohen experienced a rare sense of family warmth during his time on Dre II. Although life on the satellite was monotonous, the students grew closer, becoming like brothers. Every evening, they would gather at the observatory to listen to Master Betty explain the true meaning of Force training and the mysteries of the universe, while Master Aiden Ward would teach them some fun games using the Force.

Moreover, the mysterious Protoss, the rigid Geth, and the increasing number of golden buildings on the satellites also filled Sorea Cohen with longing.

After completing her basic studies, the Clone Wars have broken out, but the war has not yet reached Dawn. Sorea Cohen will also go to this unfamiliar planet to experience a life completely different from that of the Galactic Republic's core sector.

Gone are the intrigues and treachery of aristocratic families, the cumbersome formalities and banquets. Dawn Planet possesses only vibrant energy and a relentless determination to catch up and surpass others. Faced with a behemoth like the Galactic Republic, the people here desire something very simple—to survive.

Sorea Cohen quickly fell in love with life there, until then-Minister of Military Intelligence, Mrs. M, came to see her personally and told her that the internal strife within the Cohen family was over, her second brother, who had instigated the rebellion, was permanently imprisoned, and her eldest brother had died in the chaos. Now, she had become the first in line to inherit the Cohen family, and with the connections of her uncle, the Vice Minister of the Interior of the Galactic Republic, her future seemed incredibly bright.

At this moment, Sorea Cohen realized that she could no longer stay on Dawn Planet; she had to go back. Therefore, she faced a crucial decision.

Ultimately, she made the decision to join the Dawn Kingdom's military intelligence department and become a special agent.

Then, with the help of intelligence, Sorea Cohen disguised herself as someone stranded in the countryside of an agricultural planet, where she was adopted by an elderly couple. Seeing how difficult her life was, her father tearfully took her back.

After becoming an agent of the Kingdom of Dawn, Sorea Cohen developed a good relationship with the super hacker, Super Lotus, so she chose the codename 'White Lotus' for herself.

She discovered that her job as an agent was much simpler than she had imagined. At that time, the Galactic Republic was so corrupt it was practically rotten to the core; Coruscant was virtually undefended, and any random nobody could easily do whatever they wanted there.

As the first in line to inherit the family fortune, Sorea also had access to many things within the inner circle. She would pass on this intelligence, and later she even established a secret intelligence network underground on Coruscant, including a small secret base.

During this period, she witnessed the fall of the Galactic Republic and the rise of the Galactic Empire, leaving her intelligence network completely unattended. As a result, her intelligence network grew increasingly vast. Later, the Dawn Kingdom sent out more talent, and Sorea used her connections to place these individuals into the inner circle of the Empire. Among these people were several from the Twilight Covenant; they all possessed certain Force talents but were over the age limit.

In the training of the Force, emotional control is crucial. Therefore, the optimal time for Force training, whether on the light or dark side, is during childhood, when one's malleability is greatest. Thus, these older students quickly completed their studies. Coupled with their rich social experience, some were assigned to intelligence agencies, joining Sorea's ranks and forming a new squad.

Within the Twilight Covenant, the Sky Squad, composed of the original group of geniuses, the Star Squad, composed of relatively ordinary teenagers, and the White Lotus Group, which infiltrated the Empire, are the three squads currently active outside.

Rena Halder and Cassandra are among the members of the White Lotus. This group is predominantly female, and they don't mind using their bodies as weapons. With the aid of the Force, they are often more alluring than other women, and countless Imperial officials have been seduced and corrupted by them.

Just like Sorea Cohen at this moment, she has returned to her role as the heiress of the Cohen family and the niece of the Deputy Minister of the Interior. Holding a wine glass, she moves among many young masters and socialites, her cheeks flushed with a slight intoxication. Her silk robes flutter in the dance floor, attracting countless eyes.

Her beautiful appearance, elegant speech, and perfectly timed seduction and hints made her the dazzling star of the banquet. She navigated the numerous suitors with ease, maintaining a tantalizingly aloof demeanor that left them wanting more.

Her father was also very proud to promote his outstanding daughter to every nobleman and high-ranking official he knew. This was natural, as the so-called excellence of the inner circle of nobles meant being able to handle countless dignitaries with ease, skillfully weaving connections at banquets, and quietly extending family interests to every corner of imperial power. That was enough.

So-called professional skills? Not needed.

But Sorea-Cohen looked at the noblemen who were infatuated with her, her eyes flashing with disdain. She knew that these ants, intoxicated by beauty and power, would ultimately be crushed like dust in the face of the storm of natural disaster when the day of judgment arrived.

The Kingdom of Dawn will eventually tear down this veil of false prosperity, destroy this corrupt and superficial world, and establish a new order of true power and efficiency.

Sorea's gaze sharpened. Yes, this was her target. During her years living and studying in the Kingdom of Dawn, she had long realized that the inner circle of nobles was the root of countless chaos and injustices in this galaxy! Only by completely eradicating them could the galaxy be reborn.

That's right, for this grand goal, they will transform into flames that destroy everything!

I am the calamity!
