The giant corporations that started from Night City

Chapter 342 The Jedi Knights are coming! The sky is clear!

At this time, the rebels also discovered the situation here. After seeing Paul holding a lightsaber and killing all the stormtroopers.

One of the rebel soldiers began to shout excitedly: "It's the Jedi! The Jedi are back, we are saved!"

Jedi Knights are the galactic "police" in the Star Wars universe, and exist to maintain peace and justice in the galaxy.

This force almost completely monopolizes the formal channels for learning the Force. If you want to become a disciple and enter the academy, you must follow the values ​​​​and code of conduct of the Jedi Order.

In addition, you must have relevant Force talent.

During the Republic Era, the entire galaxy was basically ruled by the Galactic Senate as a political alliance and the Jedi Order as a military Puritan, with both sides jointly ruling the galaxy.

During this period, the Jedi Order basically controlled the military power of most civilized forces. Even the Republic created the Clone Corps in the name of the Jedi Order.

But those old guys in the parliament couldn't stand the Jedi Order's monopoly of military power, and they were determined to find an opportunity to eliminate the Jedi.

This is also the reason why the members of the Old Republic applauded when Palpatine established the Galactic Empire and dealt with the Jedi Order.

In many cases, the vast majority of those in power do not like the Jedi Order as a military organization at all. Only the oppressed and vulnerable groups urgently need the help of the Jedi.

That's why the rebels were so excited when they saw Paul appear.

This is also the real reason why the Galactic Empire is unwilling to let go of any Jedi Knight.

After all, Palpatine's regime was based on absolute power, and many former members of the Republic supported Palpatine because they saw his ability to crush the Jedi Order.

Palpatine also needed to attack the Jedi Knights and concentrate all the military power of the galaxy in his own hands to ensure the rule of the empire.

But for the rebels, the fact that a Jedi Knight can appear in the pilgrimage city of Jedha means that the Jedi Knight is about to return to the arena!

The former "policeman" of the Milky Way is coming out again to maintain peace!
In an instant, Paul's appearance was like a ray of hope shining into the darkness, and the morale of the trapped and desperate resistance army instantly soared.

When the Jedi Knights come, the blue sky will be there——!
Paul did not disappoint everyone's expectations of him. He showed great fighting ability while dodging and moving around.

The Imperial Army's blaster rifles had no way of aiming at him. While strolling around, Paul wiped out a team of Imperial stormtroopers. His killing efficiency was so high that he didn't seem like a decent Jedi.

Seeing this, in order to control the resurrected and high-spirited rebels, the commander of the empire hastily issued an order:

"Kill that Jedi Knight quickly. Don't let him leave here. Quick!"

The commander was also confused when he issued this order. They had been stationed in Jedha for so long that even the Kyber Temple was looted.

At that time, they didn't see any trace of Jedi Knights. How come such a powerful Jedi Knight suddenly appeared now!
Behind Paul, Captain Cassian and Jyn Erso, who belonged to the Rebel Alliance, were even more stunned and surprised than the rebels.

The forces targeting the Jedi Order were a massacre plot jointly promoted by the Galactic Empire and the old guys from the former Galactic Senate.

After this attack, the Jedi Knights in the entire galaxy basically disappeared, and no military force could pose any substantial threat to the Empire's rule.

But now, a living Jedi Master appeared in front of them, which made the two of them feel unbelievable.

"Chini, you go and protect them both. Leave the front battlefield to me." Paul ordered Chini. He didn't want to be distracted by the situation in the rear.

"Yes!"

Chinny immediately took Cassian and Jyn to a hidden location and activated the AI ​​drone to scan the surroundings to help her scout the situation nearby and guard against approaching stormtroopers.

On the front battlefield, with the arrival of a large number of imperial reinforcements, the fighting situation in the city began to intensify.

At this time, a stormtrooper threw a high-explosive grenade at Paul. Since he couldn't hit the opponent with a gun, he would just throw the grenade to kill him!

But what the Stormtroopers didn't expect was that the grenade was bounced back by the invisible AI drone's micro-gravitational field as soon as it was thrown.

In the end, the grenade fell into the Imperial Army's own ranks, causing considerable casualties.

These stormtroopers had not seen Jedi Knights for a long time, and for a moment they forgot that the Force could control everything. They couldn't even hit the enemy with their guns, let alone throw grenades.

For Paul, although he does not have the ability to control objects, the unlimited AI drones he carries with him are his best plug-in.

There is an AI drone nearby to support Paul, which can basically help him bounce off any hidden weapon attacks, while Paul just rushes into the crowd and kills indiscriminately.

At this moment, Paul was seen waving his lightsaber as fast as an afterimage, shuttling between the storm troopers. Every time the sword and saber flashed, several broken corpses were left on the ground.

Seeing Paul's amazing strength, the morale of the rebels became unprecedentedly high, and their offensive began to suppress the imperial army in turn.

At this moment, Chirrut and Mabius also joined the battle. Mabius held a heavy hand cannon and blasted the storm troopers into a mess.

Chirrut picked up a light crossbow. Although he was blind, his hit rate was astonishingly high. He killed several storm troopers in succession with blind sniping.

Chinnie faithfully carried out the orders given by Paul and devoted herself to dealing with the stormtroopers who tried to launch a sneak attack and sneak up on her.

Holding a hard-light sniper rifle, she shot and killed several enemies who tried to attack her, while protecting Cassian and Jean behind her.

Seeing that the combat situation on the front line was unfavorable, the Imperial Army stationed in Jedda City had to send more armored troops for support.

The most common armored vehicle is the AT series of all-terrain armored walkers.

These walkers are equipped with two laser cannons and grenade launchers, making them extremely difficult enemy firepower units for the rebels who lack anti-tank firepower.

The rebels' blaster rifles were simply unable to penetrate the thick armor plates. Even if they dodged the attacks of the two laser cannons and the grenade launcher, they would still be chopped into pieces by the steel claws on the AT-ST's feet.

Various ground war machines and the ability to continuously replenish troops through cloning technology are the basis for the Galactic Empire to covet the entire galaxy and hold sole power.

Stormtroopers are nothing but lowly cannon fodder, dispensable consumables. As long as one Jedi Knight can be killed, it doesn't matter even if ten thousand stormtroopers die.

At this moment, more and more AT-STs were wreaking havoc in Jedha City like steel monsters, constantly trampling on the rebels lurking everywhere.

At the same time, reinforcements from the Imperial Star Destroyer are also rushing here in a steady stream. The interstellar battleship that blocks out the sky is the biggest trouble!

If the rebels really angered the Imperial Army, perhaps the entire city of Jedha would be razed to the ground. To achieve this, the Star Destroyer could easily accomplish this.

It all depends on whether the Imperial Army will take Jedda City's status as a pilgrimage site for the Force into consideration.

Over here, in front of the central console at the headquarters of the Wanjie Base.

Looking at the dangerous situation that Paul was facing in Jedha City, Jack Wells on the side couldn't help but feel a little worried. After all, this kid was one of the few psychic warriors in the giant company.

He is an unrivaled swordsman and also has the noble status of being the successor to Duke Leto. If such a talent were to be sacrificed, it would be a great pity for the giant company.

"Boss, do you need us to take down that Star Destroyer?" Jack asked. He knew that the key point of this battle was the Empire's Star Destroyer. If the battleship was not destroyed, the battle on the ground would never stop.

The rebels are just a bunch of losers, they are no match for the regular troops!
After hearing Jack's suggestion, Leon just shook his head, saying that if they blew up the Imperial Star Destroyer now, it would alert the enemy.

This would immediately attract the Galactic Empire's high attention. The Universal Corporation had just entered the Star Wars universe, and it would take time to establish both the intelligence department and the front-line base.

They cannot expose themselves in advance for the time being to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.

Moreover, from all the decisions made by Paul, Leon could see that he hoped to take this opportunity to successfully infiltrate the rebel camp.

As for whether this counterattack can be won, it actually doesn’t matter to Paul at all.

As long as he can show off his face and appear as a heroic Jedi Knight and impress everyone, that's enough.

If Paul really needed support and help from headquarters, he would have called for help through the communicator long ago, but he didn't do that now, so there was no need to proactively disrupt Paul's deployment.

"No, just keep watching."

After that, Li Ang asked about V's situation again: "How is V's preparation? Is there any difficulty that needs help from the headquarters?"

The combined galactic force led by Morgan Blackhand has officially set out, but there has been no movement from V's expeditionary force.

This time, V will form a team on his own for the expedition, and he will be able to select the elite units from all the giant companies. Only V has such authority and trust.

However, this move is also a deployment that Li Ang attaches great importance to.

If Morgan Blackhand's unification of the Milky Way is the main plot of this conquest of the heavens, then V's move is the secondary plot.

But Leon did not intend to let V take the initiative to lead the expeditionary force to take the initiative to go to the extragalactic galaxy to fight.

After all, today's giant corporations do not yet have the ability to bear the huge consumption brought about by fighting on two fronts in the "Star Wars" universe.

In Li Ang's established plan, the giant enterprise must first pacify and integrate the Milky Way before it can find an opportunity to break out of the extragalactic system.

After that, he continued to expand his power and established a territory comparable to the Rakata Infinite Empire!

"V is almost ready, and we are expected to set sail in three days."

Jack responded out loud.

The expeditionary force formation on this V-belt is basically the original crew of the advance corps formed last time in the "Transformers" universe.

Including the Prometheus Legion of the Missionary, the Iron Hands Chapter, the Fremen Legion, and now there is also a Transformers Legion.

Among them there is even a demigod-level Transformer like Megatronus, who is in charge of commanding the central army!

After witnessing Quentinsha cashing out at a high price and becoming a partner of a giant company, Megatronus finally realized that the situation was hopeless.

Now the only way to secure a good future for yourself is to cling to this global giant.

Besides, with my abilities, it’s not difficult to move up step by step!

And in fact, this is indeed the case. After relying on the giant enterprise to explode several stars as energy supplements and recovering his peak strength, Zhen Tianzun participated in many stability maintenance operations in the world trade circle.

After using entropy energy to burn several pagan civilizations to death, leading the Autobots and Decepticons, and cleaning up the restless minions of the giant companies, Megatronus has become the leader of the Transformers Army.

Although Megatronus sometimes does things in an extreme way, his brain is quite useful.

In the absence of a traitor behind its back, all the tasks it is responsible for can be completed efficiently and cleanly.

This is also the reason why Zhen Tianzun was able to be promoted all the way.

The world's giant companies have always respected the strong and taken care of the interests of the strong.

"With V in charge of defending against the invasion of extragalactic civilizations, I believe everything will be peaceful there."

"In addition, the Falling Star Sky Spear megastructure is currently being assembled. Once completed, it will be immediately deployed to the front lines and put into use."

Jack Wells reported to Leon that he still had great confidence in the abilities of his old partner V.

With so many elite armies of giant companies here, even if there is a powerful extragalactic civilization, it should not be easy to break in.

"Well, tell V later that no matter what supplies or megastructure weapons he needs, we will give him priority."

To deal with civilized forces within the Milky Way, Leon can still find a way to seize the right to rule by making promises and using intimidation, but to deal with the wild species outside the Milky Way, he can only rely on powerful military force.

After all, they are all inhuman beasts, and it is useless to talk to them. But this group of people also controls many technological heritages left over from the era of gods' civilization.

That's why Leon invested so many military resources in the deployment of V.

"Yes!"

……

On the other side, at this moment in the city of Jedda, the melee between the rebels and the imperial army was still going on.

At this time, a bipedal armored walker targeted Paul. This armored tank can reach a speed of 90 kilometers per hour when moving at full speed.

Ordinary main battle tanks can only travel at a speed of 60 to 70 kilometers per hour. In addition, the AT-ST has the ability to cross complex terrain. Compared with ordinary tanks, this type of walker is obviously more of a killing machine.

In the territories ruled by the Galactic Empire, most armored units are equipped with a large number of such machines to maintain public order in the areas under the jurisdiction of the empire.

Immediately, the AT-ST walker locked onto Paul's position and began firing laser cannons.

In order to inflict as much effective damage to Paul as possible, the landing points of these laser cannons were even deliberately deviated, in an attempt to cause damage to Paul with the resulting explosion waves.

For a moment, the buildings around Paul were destroyed by the laser cannon, and he himself was covered in the dust raised by the explosion.

This made everyone present worry for him.

When Paul's figure was completely submerged in the smoke caused by the artillery fire, the AT-ST's bombardment still did not stop. The Imperial Army continued to fire laser cannons and grenades at Paul's position.

The momentum clearly wanted to completely destroy Paul to pieces!
