Since the Battle of Christophsis, the Fourth Legion, this force clad in black combat suits, had become notorious throughout the Galactic Republic military.
First of all, this unit was even better equipped than Clone Troopers. Based on the very small number of bodies and equipment samples recovered from the battlefield, their N-7 combat suits possessed outstanding performance, offering excellent protection against both kinetic weapons and Energy Weapons. Even more incredibly, every one of them was equipped with a personal shield!
The miniaturization and personal deployment of shields, as well as the mass production of small shields, were all urgent problems the Galactic Republic had yet to overcome. Yet this force from Dawn Star Planet had somehow already pulled ahead of the Galactic Republic!
Not only that, each of them wore an extremely advanced personal terminal on their wrist. This terminal integrated battlefield data processing, personal condition management, drug administration, shield control, and hacking tools. It could even be used as a combat dagger, a small tool, or even pliers and scissors!
It was simply unbelievable!
The kinetic weapons they used also displayed exceptionally effective penetration against Clone Troopers' polymer alloy armor, leaving the Galactic Republic's military technology experts utterly stunned.
Because all of these weapons detonated their built-in miniature explosives after confirming the soldier's death through that personal terminal, no intact samples could be recovered. After painstaking research, Republic scientists finally discovered traces of a Hypermatter reaction among the weapon wreckage.
Republic scientists immediately concluded that the key reason these weapons could penetrate polymer alloy armor was their use of this special fuel, which was normally only used when starships made hyperspace jumps. But how this substance had been applied to weapons left the Republic scientists racking their brains to no avail. They could only urge the frontline forces to
