116. Impossible mission

"I think we still have a way, Gaddula. In dealing with Hego, we, Black Sun, will naturally help." The holographic image flashed, and the figures of Alexi-Garin appeared in it.

"Deal with Hego? No! This won't do me any good!" Gaddula's short hands were swinging hard.

"But if you don't kill Hego... Haha, as far as I know, he may turn to support Jabba. After all, for him, all he wants is the interests of Bonta Night Speeder Race and the safety of the waterways around Tatooine. As for the partner, it doesn't matter..." Garin said with a sneer.

"I have been forced to a dead end. If I give up Tatooine, I can only go back to Nal Hutta. My industry will be destroyed, my men will be slaughtered, and I have no future!" Gaddula opened his two short hands and shouted to the sky.

"I can help you." Alexi-Garin said calmly.

"Can you help me?" Gaddula put down his hands and looked at the holographic projection.

"But you must also help me." Garin said.

"What else can I help you with?" Gaddula sighed.

"Killing Hego is something that is beneficial to both of us." A sneer appeared on the corner of Garin's mouth. "In this way, Hego will not be able to support Jabba, and your pressure will be much less. Then I will take the opportunity to win the mining and export rights of the plasma mine on Naboo, and I can use the proceeds to support you."

Gaddula The fat on his face trembled, "What do you want?"

"A Tatooine king who is close to me." Garin said with a sneer, "As long as you promise to provide convenience for my smuggling fleet after dominating Tatooine, then my transportation cost It will be reduced by 15%. And if the fleet can pass through the Hutt Space channel, Galactic Republic will be impossible to trace. By then, we will join hands to create an unprecedented smuggling the Empire!"

Gaddula lowered his head and thought for a while, then asked, "What should I do now?"

"Go back to Tatooine. No matter what method you use, you must grasp the movements of Hego-Damask II. Then, wait for the opportunity to take action." Garin raised his thumb and made a heavy stroke in front of his throat.

Cun Te walked all the way into the manager's office among Glory mothership, where Tang Xiao was waiting.

"Manager, are you looking for me?"

Tang Xiao smiled and pointed to the sofa opposite, "Sit down and talk."

When Cun Te sat down, he said, "I want to talk to you."

Cun Te said with a smile, "Tell me, do you have any other tasks? Anyway, I have enough free time recently. If I don't go out for a walk, I will start to grow hair."

"I live and eat well on Dawn Star Planet, and I have a beautiful woman in my arms. I am always waiting for the call of duty. This is really a good life..." Tang Xiao said meaningfully, "But I know this is not what you want."

Cun Te smiled reluctantly.

"It's time for me to fulfill my promise. Lancer will withdraw from Fourth Civilization Navy's combat order and officially become your spaceship. You can control it freely." Tang Xiao said, "You also You don't need to be on call at any time with Dawn Star Planet. Form your own adventure group and roam freely in the galaxy. Maybe you can use Kunto and Spade?"

"So... you don't have anything to ask me to do?" Cun Te was still a little uncomfortable.

"Strict tasks are not suitable for you, otherwise, your role will be equivalent to a super powerful pilot." Tang Xiao shook his head, "But I do have two tasks for you to do, well, it is better to say three tasks."

Cun Te nodded slightly, "If you explain it in this way, then this will be a difficult task, right?"

"For the first mission, I want you to help me find a fleet." Tang Xiao said.

"A fleet?"

"That's right, a fleet of 200 Dreadnought-class heavy cruisers - Blade Fleet. And these battleships are loaded with a large number of AT-PT all-terrain personal combat walkers." Tang Xiao crossed his hands to support his chin, "10 or 11 years ago, about 45 BBY, this secret fleet of Galactic Republic was launched into space to perform a cruise mission."

Cun Te frowned, obviously realizing that the matter was of great importance.

"Then, during the long-distance voyage, Hive virus broke out in the fleet. This is a virus that specifically affects crew members in a state of hibernation, and can infect the brain and drive people into madness. In short, the crews of 200 warships were infected with the virus. Then, under the control of the crazy navigator, all the warships made a hyperspace jump with an unknown target, and then disappeared completely." Tang Xiao said.

"No survivors?"

"Not one." Tang Xiao shook his head, "Now this fleet is completely lying somewhere in the galaxy. 200 Dreadnought-class heavy cruiser. And this is a 600-meter-long main battleship. Just to fully staff these battleships, 440,000 people are needed."

"So is there anyone with knowledge?" Cun Te continued to ask.

"Of course there is, but it's useless. Because no one can predict where a crazy navigator will guide the fleet."

Cun Te took a deep breath and leaned back on the sofa, "If we can get this fleet, then our strength will become the strongest in the galaxy! Except for Galactic Republic, only those corporate giants can have comparable power!"

"But I don't expect you to find it, I'm telling the truth." Tang Xiao said.

Cun Te smiled bitterly, "They may be anywhere in this universe, and they are really jumping randomly. Without clues, they really can only wander around in the universe. Manager, it seems that you really intend to drive me into the sea of stars and never land."

Tang Xiao smiled slightly, "This mission is just incidental, there are two other missions. You know, Black Sun has invaded our galaxy before. In fact, Black Sun's arrival is not without reason - they are preparing to deal with Hego-Damask II."

"So you are angry with us?"

"No, it was Hego who guided their target to us." Tang Xiao said with a serious face, "But no matter what, Black Sun will be our biggest challenge next. I want you to collect all the intelligence about Black Sun."

"No problem, so where to start?"

"Black Sun is joining forces with Hutt Gaddula, the terrorist organization Bando-Gosa, and Naboo King Als-Veruna to form an alliance. They are planning an assassination plan against Hego-Damask II. I want to know the specific time of this plan."

"Are you also planning to kill Hego?"

"No, I plan to sell Black Sun's plan and then go to Hego to claim credit." Tang Xiao said with a smile.

"Ask for credit? Hego tricked you and you helped him?" Cun Te shook his head and smiled, "Forget it... where did you get so much information? Whether it's Black Sun's secret plan or Blade Fleet who didn't survive, why are you just like a bystander, knowing everything?"

Tang Xiao smiled mysteriously, "Because, I can predict the future."

Thank you to 100 Qidian Coin for the reward from Wuqiqunshan!!
