1158. Life
"Let the control centers of the five planets charge Midpoint Station? But in this way, we only have one chance, right?" Madam Proxima asked, "Midpoint Station must be a facility that can operate independently, otherwise there would be no way to drag these five planets to Corellia in the first place."
Tang Xiao nodded, "Yes, that's what I mean. Midpoint Station can operate independently, but not currently. It has been floating in space for 100,000 years, and the energy core 'light point' has maintained the gravity system and basic life support system. This is a miracle in itself, but to restore it to its full state, it is necessary to use the energy stored in the control systems on the five planets to activate the 'light point'."
"Brother, you were saying before that... this Midpoint Station was built by Kilik Swarm? But why did a race with such terrifying weapons suddenly be destroyed, and even now there are not many records left?" Dryden-Vos asked.
Tang Xiao glanced at him and said calmly, "Don't ask for more, there is no benefit in knowing. You only need to know that Midpoint Station was built by Kilik Swarm, that is enough."
He turned around and said to Madam Proxima, "Start planning now to reversely penetrate the layout of Sacorria, and then take the lead in searching and researching Midpoint Station. At that time, Sacorrian Triad needs to be launched When Midpoint Station comes to reverse the situation, we, who occupy the control center on at least one planet, will have the opportunity and trump card to seek what we need. If we can succeed, we will become a decisive presence among the independent Corellian Sector in the future!"
"How much time do we have to plan?" Madam Proxima seemed convinced.
"At least 30 years." Tang Xiao said.
"30 years? Are you kidding? I will be almost 70 years old by then!" Dryden-Vos said, spreading his hands.
Tang Xiao smiled faintly, "More than 30 years. But the premise is that we don't interfere. You must understand that Corellian Sector is very politically stable now, and it has common enemies and common interests with Galactic Republic. They lack an independent foundation. On the other hand, Sacorria just has an idea. They don't know what can help them realize their plan, and naturally they don't know that this thing is Midpoint Station."
"It sounds like you've seen the future." Madam Proxima said.
"If I didn't see the future, I naturally wouldn't come here to find you." Tang Xiao replied, "Yes, I saw the future of Corellia in the long river of the Force."
"So in the future you see, what is the outcome?" Madam Proxima asked again.
"Sacorrian Triad failed, Midpoint Station was occupied, and Corellian Sector failed to become independent." Tang Xiao said.
"A failed future... This sounds a little bad." Dryden-Vos frowned.
"Yes, even with Midpoint Station, Sacorrian Triad still failed. I don't want to deny it. Because if I just wanted to trick you into boarding the ship, then naturally I wouldn't say this to you... But don't forget, we have more than 30 years to prepare." Tang Xiao said.
Madam Proxima seems to have agreed very much with Tang Xiao's plan, "For more than 30 years, even if we train a group of talents specifically for this plan from children, it will be more than enough! Hahahaha... don't tell me you think you can only live to be seventy or eighty years old, Dryden-Vos, I know how afraid of death you are."
Dryden-Vos was thinking about another question, "Since you said Corellian Sector that the political situation is very stable now, in other words, will it become very unstable in 30 years?"
"Corellia doesn't need 30 years to cause chaos." Tang Xiao showed an inexplicable and weird smile, "Galactic Republic... still has at most 2 years to live..."
Dryden-Vos's eyes lit up, and then the corners of his mouth turned up, and a cruel smile appeared on his face, "Galactic Republic, there are still 2 years left... hehehehe..."
"Maybe, less than 2 years..." Tang Xiao picked up the wine glass and shook it at him.
"Hehehehe... Hahahahahahahahahaha!!! Galactic Republic, it's not even two years yet? Hahahahahahahahaha!!!!" Dryden-Vos laughed. He grabbed a whole bottle of wine from the table, bumped it hard with Tang Xiao, and then drank it hard.
"This is the biggest surprise today!" Madam Proxima squirmed in her pool, extremely excited, "Come here!! Call all the slave girls over here!! Let's continue dancing and drinking!!! Hahahahaha!!"
"This glass is for Galactic Republic who still has two years left." Tang Xiao simply grabbed a bottle of wine and said.
"Done!! Hahahaha!!"
"Done!!!"
Tang Xiao stood on the balcony, looking at the night in this Corellia block, silent.
Dryden-Vos was drunk long ago and took four or five female slaves back to his room. However, Tang Xiao knew very well that after drinking like this, he might not be able to do anything except sleep.
Madam Proxima also went back to rest. She was not drunk. Grindalyn has 7 sets of organs used to decompose various toxins including alcohol. This is also the result of their living in a dark and humid environment. It's almost impossible to get them drunk.
But today, Madam Proxima was obviously very satisfied with the result, so he went to bed with the dream of dominating the underground world of Corellia.
Indeed, there is nothing more perfect than controlling a powerful weapon, hiding it behind the scenes, having someone else take the lead, huge benefits, and a full 30 years of planning time.
30 years, many people may think that this time is too long and meaningless, but in fact you need to know that this means that you are 30 years ahead of others! That's almost an entire generation!
Tang Xiao can't wait 30 years, but he won't tell Dryden-Vos and Madam Proxima. In fact, after the establishment of the Galactic Empire, the political situation of Corellian Sector became less stable. At that time, plans could already be started.
For these two Corellia local gang bosses, the greatest value is that they are local snakes. Tang Xiao can use them to carry out operations here conveniently and covertly.
As for the good relationship between them, that's only secondary. Tang Xiao has no doubt that once any changes occur, these two people will definitely run faster than anyone else. It's not bad without stabbing them in the back.
Of course, having a good relationship is also a good foundation after all.
Fourth Civilization's influence in the core area of Galactic Republic like Corellian Sector is still too low. If he hadn't known these two gang bosses, even if he knew about Midpoint Station, there would be no way he could actually come and take action.
Crimson Dawn of Dryden-Vos, and White Worm Gang of Madam Proxima, these are just part of a huge network with Midpoint Station as the core.
In the future, he will plant more seeds in Corellian system, so that when Midpoint Station can be activated, he will have more power to use!
And... Das-Maul...
This Sith Lord is not dead, he is returning, and he will also have his own plan.
For his plan, he will eventually find Crimson Dawn, and by that time, it will also be the time for Tang Xiao to launch his plan on him! If possible, drag Das-Maul into the muddy waters of Corellia!
Darth-Maul... When he wakes up and discovers the chaotic galaxy ten years later, facing Darth-Sidious who abandoned him, and Darth-Malthael who suddenly emerged, what choice will he make?
Tang Xiao raised his head and looked in a certain direction in the sky, where it was the direction of Midpoint Station... His eyes were extremely firm, just like his heart.
He knows what he is doing and what he should do.
Galactic Republic is too powerful compared to Fourth Civilization, and Galactic Empire, which was born later, will only be more powerful. Therefore, in order to survive under such a huge power gap, Corellian Sector's independence must be achieved!
It was another sleepless night... Tang Xiao thought for a while, jumped off the balcony, came to the street, and started wandering aimlessly.
Although it is already around 3 o'clock in the middle of the night, there are still many people walking around on the streets. Unlike during the day, most of the people still outside are gang members, gangsters, homeless people, prostitutes, and drunkards.
Since Planet Dagobah used Dark Reaper to absorb the violent Dark Side Force in his body this time, he began to like this feeling of rare relaxation... This feeling of walking on the street, and everyone around him just regarded him as an ordinary pedestrian... In other words, the feeling of being a human being...
At this time, the Force suddenly trembled a little.
This is the feeling that someone is doing something bad to you, but this feeling is very subtle, indicating that there is almost no threat.
Tang Xiao The corners of Tang Xiao's mouth were slightly raised, and an invisible the Force stretched towards that direction.
"... Have you seen that person over there? Han." A slightly immature female voice came from a corner, which was clearly captured by Tang Xiao with the Force, "That guy who keeps giggling while walking on the road! Look at his clothes, he must be a rich man!"
Tang Xiao The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, what do you mean by giggling all the time on the road? It's obviously a natural expression when you are in a good mood!
But now he just feels that it is quite interesting. After standing in a high position for a long time, he really has an unreal feeling of being separated from life. Life and wealth are just numbers to him. The planet shatters and the galaxy shakes with the wave of his hand. Such power makes him ignore many of the most essential things - life.
He remained silent and continued walking slowly on the road, but the Force had already locked onto that direction.
"I always feel a little dangerous, Kira. Anyone who dares to hang out alone in the Corellia neighborhood in the middle of the night is definitely not an ordinary person." Another boy's voice reached Tang Xiao's ears.
He suddenly frowned and caught the name.
Immediately, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly... Interesting, is this a coincidence? Or is it the Force's arrangement?
Things are getting a little fun.
"It's okay. Judging from the appearance of this man, he is definitely not from here! As soon as we get hold of him, we run into the alley immediately. Even if he calls the police, he won't be able to find us! Hey, did you see his waist? There is a bulge there, maybe it's a wallet." The female voice said, "Same as usual, you go over to attract his attention, and I'll take action."
"Well... after we succeed, our savings may be doubled." The young man's voice said.
"That's enough! Forget about your 50 credit points deposit... We can get at least 1,000 credit points in today's trip!"
"No, it's not 50 anymore, it's 53 credits. I went to help Telke in the afternoon and delivered some things. He gave me 5 credits, and then I bought a roasted lizard leg for 2 points. Did you forget?" the boy said.
"How much money can you make doing those errands? You know, I helped Hicks last week..."
"Ah, yes, yes, you helped Hicks capture a runaway slave, and he gave you 200 credits. That was last month. Moreover, Hicks is a member of White Worm Gang. It's best for us to avoid associating with these gangs... I heard that the escaped slave girl has been dealt with, her brain was removed, replaced with machinery, and became the lowest tool [Note 1]..."
"We don't have any sympathy for others, understand? This is Corellia, Han Solo. I only care about the 200 credits, because this money can allow us to live well for a month! Okay! Follow us quickly, that person is going far away!"
Tang Xiao soon sensed that two figures were quietly walking toward him under the cover of darkness, making no sound. He smiled again and continued walking slowly.
At this moment, one of them suddenly rushed out from the alley next to him. It was a boy who looked about 10 years old. He slammed into him with a bag of things in his hand!
Tang Xiao did not dodge, but let the boy crash into his arms. The boy said in horror, "Sir, please help me! I stole something and they want to catch me!!"
As he said that, he stuffed the bag into Tang Xiao's hand. It was quite heavy.
At this moment, Tang Xiao found another figure running over from behind. He cut off the entire pocket from his waist with very agile skills, then grabbed it and ran away.
At the same time, the boy had run away, leaving only the bag of things in Tang Xiao's hand.
The cooperation was good. The boy rushed over to attract attention. At the same time, he threw a bag and took his hands. He said it was stolen things, arousing the greed of the other party, and then the girl took the opportunity to steal.
Tang Xiao smiled slightly.

[Note 1: In the pictures of Dryden-Vos that I posted in the previous chapters, the waiter standing on the left is like this. You can see that the upper half of her head is completely gone and replaced with a mechanical controller, which is like this. This is the most terrible punishment for a slave.]
[Note 2: I decided to use the setting of the new canon for Han Solo's plot, that is, the plot where he and Kira are together. I swear I am definitely not doing it for Dragon Mother!]
