117. Tang Xiao and Pregas

Three months passed in the blink of an eye, and a new year began in the Milky Way, 34BBY. This was also the eighth month since Tang Xiao and the mothership came to this world.

Everyone in the galaxy is celebrating the arrival of a new standard year, but most people don't know that such peaceful time is getting less and less.

The pace of war is approaching step by step.

Moreover, some people are destined to never see the New Year's sunrise again.

Tang Xiao shook off the alloy Longsword in his hand. Beads of blood spilled from the sword and fell on a corpse on the ground. He looked back at the lifeless building, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Well done Tang Xiao, you killed a total of 13 people this time, cleanly." Das-Pregas's voice came from behind, and he looked very satisfied.

At this moment, Das-Pregas was wearing a black cloak, completely covering his body, standing outside the building and silently watching the killing.

Although he did not go in, he could accurately tell the number of Tang Xiao murders.

Tang Xiao put Longsword back into the scabbard, put the pistol back into the holster, and raised the hood of the cloak to cover his face as well. At the same time, he still used the power of the Force to cover his face. In this way, even if others saw his face, they would not leave any impression in their minds.

No matter how they recalled it, they could not recall what Tang Xiao looked like.

During these three months, Das-Pregas began to teach Tang Xiao some basic the Force usage skills. But it wasn't a step-by-step trick, it was just throwing him out, one word, kill him.

Pregas not only allowed Tang Xiao to hone his skills in killing, but also allowed him to lose himself in killing, thus completely fallen to the Dark Side.

Although Tang Xiao is not yet qualified to obtain his own Lightsaber, Das-Pregas's training for him has also begun to tilt towards close combat. From the beginning he used an assault rifle to fight, but later he was only allowed to use the Longsword plus pistol.

Tang Xiao's physical training has not fallen behind, and the T-850 with the appearance of Arnold Schwarzenegger has been supervising his training. In addition to basic fitness to lose fat and gain muscle, a large number of fighting courses were also added later, mainly to improve the body's flexibility.

In addition, among the ways of using the Force, there are also ways to enhance physical fitness, which also makes Tang Xiao's current physical fitness far beyond that of ordinary people.

Just like just now, he alone entered the terrorist organization's stronghold in Bando Goza and killed everyone inside - well, it is absolutely impossible to rush in head-on.

"What did you find?" Pregas asked gloomily.

Tang Xiao took out a storage device that was removed from the host, "Found this, they are planning to destroy this storage device. I will take it back to my technical team for cracking."

"As soon as possible." Pregas dropped this sentence and turned around to leave.

Tang Xiao weighed the storage device in his hand. In the past month, Pregas had asked him to destroy several Bando-Gosa strongholds. He seemed to feel that someone wanted to deal with him, but he still had no clue. He could only start with the only clue - the Bando-Gosa belonging to Samir-Sahad that Tang Xiao captured for him last time.

In fact, if you stand from the perspective of Tang Xiao, who already knows the answer, you can naturally easily understand why Gaddula and Black Sun want to kill Hego-Damask II. But from Hego's point of view, he couldn't imagine how Gaddula had the courage to deal with him, nor could he imagine why Black Sun would also be involved.

It was precisely because he misjudged the determination of the temporary alliance between Gaddula, Black Sun and Naboo that Hego was almost assassinated in the plot - it was Jabba's intelligence that saved him.

But now, Tang Xiao is ready to take the credit for himself.

"I will have some important research projects next. Please keep an eye on the Bando-Gosa line for me. If you find anything, please notify me as soon as possible." Pregas said coldly.

"Yes, I have already started to get some clues. I believe I will be able to find out what Bando Goza wants to do soon." Tang Xiao lowered his head and said.

"Your use of the Force is still too rough. You must remember this: the Force can not only lift large rocks to hit people, but can also accurately use a steel needle to poke a picture on the human body."

"Yes, my lord."

"Okay, go back. I have secured an order for you. The defense force of Mulinst Planet wants you to order 10 Wraith fighter. The price is 300,000 credit points each."

"Yes, I will arrange the production immediately."

"Okay, I left a training plan, you have to follow it. And..." Pregas's voice turned cold, "You'd better go out for a walk more often. Hehehehe..."

Tang Xiao lowered his head and said nothing. He knew that Das-Pregas meant to let him go out and kill more people.

After getting in touch with him more, Tang Xiao also discovered that Das-Pregas is actually a pretty homely guy. All his energy is focused on studying 'Midi-chlorians', which is also Chlamydiae. His theory is that this is the key factor that exists in the human body and produces the Force.

If he didn't feel that someone was going to deal with him, and if he met someone as talented as himself, Tang Xiao estimated that Pregas wouldn't want to go out and hang out at all.

But Pregas is a man who thinks highly of himself and is arrogant. He handed over all the work of subverting Galactic Republic to his official apprentice Das-Sidious, but he imagined that after the success of Sidious, he could ascend to the sky and become the master of the galaxy.

As for Tang Xiao's education, except for occasionally figuring it out and going around for a while, taking Tang Xiao to destroy a few strongholds - either Bando-Gosa's or Damask Holdings Group's enemies, the rest of the time it was all kinds of homework, and he was hardly cared about.

From this perspective, this guy is quite cute, even a little naive.

It's not because Das-Pregas doesn't have a high IQ. In fact, if he really wants to be serious, he will often turn his hand into a shocking chess game. After all, the plan to subvert Galactic Republic was originally planned by him and was later handed over to Das-Sidious.

The reason why Pregas was like this at the end of his life was actually because he was tricked by his master.

Das-Pregas naturally had a master, and out of Sith Lord's traditional skills, he also killed his master with his own hands.

But the problem is that his master had a backup plan before he died. He originally planned to resurrect Pregas through the power of Midi-chlorians, but failed. However, failure was a failure, and some very complicated changes occurred due to a combination of circumstances, which made Das-Pregas completely lose the ability to predict danger.

The most fatal thing is that Das-Pregas doesn't know this at all.

Therefore, he believed in his own feelings and always believed that he was safe. Over time, he also lost his due vigilance.

This became Darth-Pregas's only weakness and the cause that ultimately led to his death.

And these are all advantages that Tang Xiao can take advantage of. Pregas didn't feel any danger in him, so he naturally trusted Tang Xiao more and more, almost to the point of letting him go.

And Tang Xiao is approaching his little plan step by step.
