Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

24, Pirates

At the same time, Endor Star System.

Three small spaceships emerged from the hyperspace in the star system, two G-9 Light Freighters and one GX-1 Hauler. Although it is called a cargo ship, it has actually undergone a lot of modifications, and the cargo compartment has been converted into a laser turret, which has brought the armament of these cargo ships to a very strong level.

“Endor Star System, take a turn around here. See if there is anything unusual.” In the communication channel, a pilot drowsily said.

“I don’t know what Master Dooku asked us to find in the Moddell Sector, it’s just too difficult.” Another person took it.

“Isn’t that so? I’ve searched Moddell Sector, I might as well go to the outer ring to do a vote if I have time!”

“Don’t say it, Master Dooku has enough money After we returned to Serenno, we had a good time and worked hard!”

“Boss! There is a strong radar signal in the direction of Planet Endor!”

“The Endor Star System is not a bird. There’s actually someone in the shit place? Ha! Maybe there’s some business coming! Let’s go and have a look!”

…

Qui-Gon Jinn took a small sip of his teacup. , the fragrance of black tea diffuses in the mouth, making people relaxed and joyful. He couldn’t help taking a deep breath, reminiscing about the fragrance.

“Are you used to drinking this kind of black tea? Master Qui-Gon.” Daphne Clement said with a faint smile sitting opposite Qui-Gon.

“I’ve never had such a…well, I can’t say it’s delicious, I should say, a drink that makes people feel comfortable.” Qui-Gon Jinn replied with a nod.

“How did you feel about the past few days visiting our Fourth Group colony?” Clement continued.

“There’s really nothing suspicious about it, except…is the large mining farm you set up on the fourth moon intended to develop industry here?” Qui-Gon asked rhetorically.

“Yes, the group also has some shipbuilding business,” Clement replied.

“Those who can build spacecraft are large corporations.” Qui-Gon Jinn stood up, looked at the small interstellar dock under construction through the spacious porthole of the mothership, and asked back: ” So why haven’t I heard of Fourth Group before?”

“Our group has just started, so a lot of things are just getting started.”

“I remember, at Planet Endor On, there are native species?” Obi-Wan Kenobi, who had not spoken, suddenly asked, “Well, you have changed the name of planet to Dawn. But this change must be reported to the relevant department of the Republic. “

“That’s right, Ewoks. We get along very well with them and have started teaching some Ewoks to help us build houses and stuff like that. After we fully mastered their language, We will gradually carry out the education of Ewoks, and strive to let them enter the civilized society as soon as possible.” Clement’s answer was exact, “In addition, there are other intelligent species such as Duloks on Planet Dawn, but they are too offensive and are still in the preliminary stages. exploratory contact.”

“Well, I hope so. Genocide due to colonial expansion is strictly forbidden in the Galactic Republic,” said Obi-Wan.

“It’s natural. We have dedicated staff in Coruscant to handle this.” Clement replied with a smile, but his heart kept beating.

Officers, there’s a fart! Even the term Coruscant was only heard a few days ago from Ferasi, who was being held here as a hostage.

“Then your leader, Tang Xiao. Has he been in touch yet?” Qui-Gon Jinn asked.

Clement had a worried look on his face, “Not yet, he should have been on the hyperspace route. I don’t know where he went. According to the plan, he should go to Planet Tatooine, Let’s see if there is any way to sell the product.”

“What kind of person is Tang Xiao?”

Clement smiled, “He is visionary, approachable, and fearless. Although she is still a little young, she is growing into a good leader.”

“I think she is telling the truth, Master.” Obi-Wan Kenobi whispered, “The Force can feel To her current mood.”

“Having such a magnificent mothership at a young age and starting a planetary colonization plan, then this Tang Xiao can deserve such praise.” Qui -Gon Jinn said with a smile.

“I thank our Administrator for your affirmation.” Clement stood up very solemnly and bowed to the two of them.

[Notification, there is a communication cut in. 】MainBrain’s voice suddenly came.

“Transfer here.” Chief of Staff Qi Jian, who was working in the other side of the Staff Department, said immediately.

Then a very arrogant face appeared on the big screen of the bridge, “Where did you come from, this big ship? Come to Planet Endor without authorization to mine, do you have a license? We are Galactic Republic Tax officer, come to investigate your tax situation. If you are sensible, hand over the tax to us, otherwise don’t blame us for being rude!”

Qi Jian’s face darkened immediately, “The tax officer ?hmph! You guys are here to grab it!”

“I said, we act in accordance with the rules and regulations.” The man was still extremely arrogant, “You have such a big spaceship, you should hand it in… 1 million credits tax, pay it as soon as possible!”

Obi-Wan Kenobi stood up suddenly and was about to rush to the screen, but was stopped by Qui-Gon Jinn. Qui-Gon turned to Clement and said, “I can assure you that the tax officer of the Galactic Republic is not like this.”

“I see, please wait a moment.” Clement also looked serious. She stood up and walked towards the combat command center.

“Master, it’s obviously a pirate! We can’t just sit idly by!” Obi-Wan whispered to Qui-Gon after Clement was gone.

“I know. But we should take this opportunity to see what they are.” Qui-Gon shook his head slightly.

“I understand this, but this…”

“This is from the Republic’s point of view, not from Jedi’s point of view.”

“Yes , Master.”

At the command center, Qi Jian gave an order, “Notify the entire ship to enter combat mode! Everyone returns to work, fighter pilot enters the fighter plane and waits for orders! The interstellar mining field stops working!”

The alarm sounded immediately inside the mothership, and the staff who were on vacation came out of the dormitory one after another and ran to their respective posts.

“Sir! There are three spaceships heading towards the interstellar mining station on the gaseous planet! The spaceship is 20-30 meters long and belongs to the light frigate class!” The radar soldier turned back and said loudly.

“give the other party an ultimatum to stop advancing! or we will resort to force!” Qi Jian said firmly.

Clement is a little worried, “We only have some Blade Fighters now, the combat capability of this fighter…”

“Even if there is only one dagger left in my hand, I will Fight to the end!” Qi Jian’s eyes seemed to be on fire.
