The giant corporations that started from Night City

Chapter 345: Separate actions! V's major discovery! Terrifying when you think about it!
"This scene is truly tragic."

Paul, who escaped from Jedda Star in an extreme escape, turned around to look at the broken planet behind him and said with emotion.

It was not that he was amazed at the destructive power of the Death Star, but it was the first time for him to watch the entire process of a planet being destroyed at such a close distance.

For example, the star-blasting method of the Universal Corporation only requires the release of neutron killing beams or MD-500, which can complete annihilation strikes at a long distance.

The whole process takes no more than five minutes, but because it is so efficient, many people do not have a very intuitive feeling about the destruction of a planet.

When Paul watched from close range as the planet Jedha collapsed from its crust to its interior in a few hours, he could clearly feel how strong the visual impact of the planet's destruction was.

It has to be said that the power of the first Death Star was already quite terrifying. Although its star-blasting efficiency was a bit slow, its degree of destruction was high enough.

A single star-destroying beam can completely destroy a planet from the inside out. Even in the arsenal of a giant corporation, it can be ranked as a T1 weapon.

If Paul had been a little slower, or had failed to foresee the danger in advance, he would most likely have died in the Death Star attack.

Jyn Erso, who escaped with Paul, looked at Jedha behind her with sadness.

This is the power of the Galactic Empire!

This is the real reason why the empire was able to hold power and quickly suppress rebellions in various places. They control absolute weapons of violence and can make rules for the weak.

Any planet that dares to openly support the Rebels must consider whether it can withstand a single shot from the Death Star's star destroyer.

Otherwise, what awaits them is annihilation!
In the absence of external support, the rebels' fight against the Galactic Empire was particularly difficult.

However, to the Cosmos Enterprise fleet watching from afar, the Death Star seemed just so-so and not something too powerful.

But if we can get an upgraded version of the Death Star, it will attract everyone's attention.

The development history of the universe's giant enterprises is also the history of weapon updates and iterations, from the initial inefficient star-blasting by starship artillery to the current star-blasting by luminous particles.

This is the result of the gradual growth of global giants.

But now, the giant corporations in the universe are no longer satisfied with the power of a single star explosion, but focus on group damage and the construction of deadly weapons that can destroy an entire star system!
Although if you want to destroy a star system, you only need to blow up the stars in that galaxy, which will cause the surrounding planets to die and decay.

But this slow death process is not the efficiency that the global giant wants. What Li Ang wants is a quick shot to clear the field!
Therefore, the construction of the Falling Star Spear megastructure and the acquisition of Starkiller Base technology are the current top priorities of the giant company.

Compared to developing the Death Star's upgrade technology on his own, it is more time-saving and resource-saving to get the technology for free from others. This is why Le Ang did not upgrade the Death Star on his own.

He got here for free all the way, and made his fortune by relying on his free skills.

If he is asked to engage in independent research and development, Li Ang will not easily waste resources on this unless he really cannot obtain the relevant technology.

"The Holy City of Jedda...is gone."

The rebel allies who drove the spaceship out of danger looked at their former base and home in dismay as they saw it completely turned into dust.

Unlike the indifference of the members of the Universal Enterprise Fleet, the emotions they felt were deep despair and fear.

The gap in weapons between the Rebels and the Empire is so huge, do they really have a hope of overthrowing the Empire?

Not to mention a celestial-level combat space station like the Death Star, these peasants don't even have a corresponding star destroyer.

Whether it is the amount of weapons reserves or the industrial production areas, it cannot be compared with the Galactic Empire.

If they come into direct contact with the Death Star, it would be like an egg hitting a rock, and their fate would be the same as that of Jedha.

The only hope now is to obtain the design drawings of the Death Star from the clues left by Galen Erso and find a way to destroy the Death Star. This is the only chance for the Rebel Alliance to defeat the Empire.

However, at this moment, some people within the rebel army have already felt desperate, believing that they alone cannot defeat the powerful Galactic Empire.

The two sides began to argue and disagree on where to go next, and at this time, the spacecraft's communication system suddenly received a message.

The source of the news was Paul Atreides!
[Everyone, I am glad to see that you are all safe and sound. It seems that the hope of the rebels has been preserved. ]

The moment the connection was successfully established, Paul's holographic projection appeared in front of the rebels.

But when Captain Cassian saw Paul for the first time, he was very alert. He asked him, "How did you know our communication channel?"

From the first time Cassian saw Paul, he always felt that this guy was weird, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

His intuition told him that Paul didn't look like a "local".

"Sorry, before this, I secretly placed a small tracking device on you, so that I can reconnect with you as soon as possible after we are separated."

Paul responded frankly that he would not easily give up the opportunity to infiltrate the rebel camp, otherwise it would be difficult for him to obtain the technical drawings of Starkiller Base by himself.

"Who are you? I always feel that your true identity is more than just a Jedi Knight!"

After seeing Paul's abilities, Captain Cassian became more and more curious about this guy's background. This Jedi Knight who appeared out of nowhere must have a lot of unknown secrets.

"The Rebel Alliance is not the only one in the galaxy that is resisting the Empire's dictatorship, and you are not the only one who dislikes the Empire."

Paul used ambiguous words to fool Cassian's questioning, "Our people are also acting in secret, so you are not alone."

Hearing this, Jyn Erso blinked and asked in confusion: "So, you are another resistance force."

Paul rode the donkey down the hill and nodded in response to everyone: "That's right, but our actions are more covert. We have been lurking in the dark, looking for a new opportunity."

"Could it be...you are the Jedi Order?!"

Combined with Paul's identity as a Jedi Knight and his young face, he has skills that are no less than those of a Jedi Master.

It's hard not to believe that Paul is some high-ranking member of the Jedi Order, and that the extinct Jedi are being resurrected!

"The Jedi Order no longer exists, but we are still trying our best to survive and fight the Empire."

After that, Paul brought the topic back to the point: "Now that we have the specific location of the information, let's go there immediately."

"Otherwise, by the time the Imperial Army reacts, it will be too late!"

Paul persuaded all the rebels present to actively cooperate with the action they were about to launch.

"In addition, I suggest that we split up into two groups. You go to the Imperial Engineering Institute to rescue Galen Erso, and I go to Scarif to take the Death Star design drawings." The Imperial Engineering Institute and Scarif are two different places, and there is no doubt that Scarif, where the Death Star design drawings are kept, is more dangerous.

That was a key fortress planet of the Empire, where a large number of Imperial Stormtroopers were deployed. The shield force field covering the entire planet alone made it seem like one had no idea where to start.

However, with the current weapons and cannons of the Universal Corporation, it is not difficult to overload the shield force field device and make it inoperable.

Under Paul's series of arrangements, rebels such as Cassian and Jyn Erso will go to rescue Galen Erso, and the real Rogue One will be his turn!

Captain Cassian had no objection to the task assigned by Paul. It was obvious that stealing the Death Star design was more dangerous than rescuing Galen.

If even the Jedi Knights can't do this, then it's naturally even more impossible for them to take it down.

In comparison, rescuing Jean's father Galen Erso seems much easier. At least there is no planetary shield force field inside, so there is no need to worry about being trapped inside and unable to get out.

"I understand. I will report this to all the allied forces now and ask them to organize armed forces immediately," said Captain Cassian.

Paul nodded. Now that both parties could reach an agreement, the next things would be much easier.

Soon, both sides officially began their respective actions.

Cassian, Jyn Erso and their team went directly to rescue Galen Erso, and it was up to Paul to find a way to get the Death Star design drawings.

Such a dangerous operation certainly requires long-term planning, so Paul and Chini returned to the Hyperion and reported the situation to the headquarters of the All Worlds Base.

Just as Paul was driving the transforming spaceship and landing on the Hyperion, he said to Penny Wells, who had returned a long time ago:

"Penny, you must lead a team of Iron Hands and follow the rebels to rescue them. He is a very valuable scientist."

"If we can recruit him, we will be able to build Starkiller Base much faster!"

As the chief designer of the Death Star, Galen Erso's value is self-evident. If the giant company can recruit him, even if it fails to steal the Death Star design drawings, it can still build the Starkiller Base.

The most important thing is that no matter whether the rescue of the rebels is successful or not, the Universal Corporation must take down this force. Otherwise, according to the boss's temper, he would rather destroy these unstable factors!

"understood."

Young Pani nodded. Even though he had just escaped death on the planet Jedda, Pani still took the task without hesitation.

As the son of Marshal Jack Wells, he didn't want to embarrass his father.

At this moment, Li Ang, who was stationed at the headquarters of the Wanjie Base, had received all the situation reports from the front line.

After learning about the decision made by Paul, he thought for a moment. If he remembered correctly, if Scarif was in danger.

Darth Vader, the famous villain in the "Star Wars" universe, will personally lead his flagship, the Executor Super Star Destroyer, to support the planet!
Darth Vader's original name was Anakin Skywalker. He was once an outstanding Jedi Knight with the Force, but under the instigation of Palpatine, he turned to the dark side and became a minion of the empire.

This is a real "Jedi Knight". Leon is not sure whether Paul can defeat him alone. If not, he has to make every possible effort.

After all, the scale of Vader's Executor flagship is more than ten times that of the Imperial Star Destroyer, with an overall length of an astonishing 19 kilometers.

Even among the battleship models of giant companies, this can be considered a behemoth battleship.

In order to fight against this huge battleship, of course, it is necessary to send out a ship of equal weight, such as the Long Night from the Covenant, or the Sojourner Dreadnought.

Nowadays, the front-line deployment of the Universal Corporation in the "Star Wars" universe has been basically completed. Now even turning the table with the Galactic Empire is a piece of cake.

Since both sides are destined to fight a earth-shaking interstellar naval battle, make sufficient formation arrangements in advance!

"Tell David to get ready for battle, it will be their turn soon!"

Leon gave orders to Jack Wells that the troops David brought included the giant enterprise's most advanced Mantle and the Transformed War Moon megastructure.

With such a configuration of battleships, it should not be difficult to deal with Darth Vader's fleet.

"Yes."

Jack nodded, turned around and conveyed Leon's highest order to David at the front line, asking him to make subsequent combat deployments.

While the headquarters was beginning to coordinate the war with the Galactic Empire, V from the edge of the galaxy in the Star Wars universe suddenly sent a call request.

"Boss, it's a message from Marshal V." Secretary General Lucy reminded.

"Well, answer it."

As soon as he finished speaking, V's figure appeared in front of the center console of the entire headquarters. Judging from his slightly serious expression, it seemed that V had discovered something incredible this time!
[Boss, we have a new discovery here. ]

It turned out that ever since V followed Leon's order and led the most elite expeditionary force of the universe giant enterprise to the edge of the Milky Way.

V immediately sent out a large number of AI drones and various reconnaissance devices. Not long after, they discovered something terrifying.

That is, the Yuuzhan Vong people in the faraway galaxy have launched a large number of biological detectors into the Milky Way.

These detectors look like ordinary rocks, but inside they contain extremely sophisticated electronic devices and unknown biological tissues.

This is also the technological feature of the Yuuzhan Vong civilization. Many of their weapons are made of various strange insects or exotic beasts.

For example, there are explosive bugs that can destroy armor, Voxin beasts that hunt Force-sensitive people, Von Duin crabs that can resist artillery, and even coral jump boats.

The weapons and armor of the Yuuzhan Vong are all from the mysterious and wild alien world outside the river, highlighting a barbaric characteristic.

[According to the scouting instruments we have collected, the Yuuzhan Vong may have already set their sights on this "paradise" as early as the Clone Wars in the Star Wars universe! ]

[It is even possible that they have already planted their own political spies inside the Milky Way to constantly monitor changes in the Milky Way.]

V's words immediately made all the staff present feel a tingling sensation on their scalps.

Imagine an empire in internal chaos, struggling to deal with rebels and uprisings, constantly wasting its own strength.

However, on the outskirts of the Milky Way, there is a ferocious unknown civilization that is keeping a close eye on the empire, ready to pounce on the weakened and exhausted powerful empire at any time and invade the civilization of the Milky Way.

The rebels and the empire fought to a loss, but in the end, the rebels gained an advantage over the barbaric civilizations in the outer galaxies.

This scene is very similar to the historical tragedy that once occurred in China, that is, the "Five Barbarians Invading China"!
