143. Erosion
Tang Xiao's goal has never changed. Even though the words he said to the void to penetrate the galaxy were impulsive and angry, he never changed his original intention.
He understood that war was his only option, there was no second option.
No matter who allowed him to travel to this world, or who gave him the Kushan Mothership, the database of the mothership was filled with fictional technologies from various science fiction games and movies, not to mention those characters who were originally just avatars.
No matter what the goal of this existence is, after having these things, Tang Xiao really has only one option: war.
There is no way he would choose to stay at home and wait for the winner to be decided outside the galaxy.
Because according to the plot, after Galactic Republic is finally destroyed and Galactic Empire rises, the empire's attention will soon fall on Endor system and use it as their secret base.
At that time, the only thing waiting for Tang Xiao will be death.
So his only choice is to prevent Galactic Empire from getting involved in his own galaxy before all this happens.
Clone Wars 13 years later is his last and best chance.
war...
If I choose this path, I will completely miss Light Side. He has an entire colony behind him. If he were alone, he could join Jedi Order and embrace light and justice, but no.
Jedi Order can't help him.
Sith Lord Yes.
I don't know if it was fate or the Force. He chose to leave the colony and go to Tatooine just after time travel. Although this meant that he was not on the mothership when the bounty Hunter came, he also missed Qui-Gon-Gold and Obi-Wan-Kenobi by some strange combination of circumstances.
Now think about it, if he hadn't left at that time, maybe Qui-Gon-Jin would have discovered the growing Dark Side Force in him, and the result might have been even more disastrous than a few bounty Hunter making a fuss.
Later, I encountered a request from Hego-Damask II. This allowed him to come into contact with one of the deepest and most powerful darknesses in the galaxy - Darth-Pregas.
Dark Side...
Tang Xiao took a deep breath. From the beginning, this was the only path for him. Choose darkness, embrace darkness, control darkness...
Now, the deepest and darkest darkness in the galaxy is right in front of him.
Book of Sith and the remaining darkness the Will on the surrounding ancient Sith reliefs kept roaring around him, surrounding him like ferocious monsters, trying to devour his mind and occupy his body!
But unlike the fear before, Tang Xiao now faced it calmly. He calmly looked at those nihilistic monsters, even if they roared at him and passed through his body from time to time.
He looked at Book of Sith quietly, feeling Sith Lord's anger and despair between the lines.
The legend that everyone in the galaxy regards as evil, the fear of being hunted by Jedi Order and almost dying in the light, and the bone-deep hatred for Galactic Republic that has lasted for thousands of years since the establishment of the Sith Empire.
Feeling the anger left by these Sith Lord, Tang Xiao's heart became increasingly cold.
Because they are so similar!
Once Fourth Civilization is defeated, this fate awaits him, even more miserable, a hundred times more miserable!
So, become stronger! Whether it's your own power or the power of Fourth Civilization!
Become stronger!
Then comes war, conquest!
The purpose of all this is to enable Fourth Civilization to stand on the Milky Way!
In front of him, the originally pure Kyber Crystal began to tremble slightly at some point, and wisps of red filaments appeared in the crystal, gradually spreading...
The capital of the galaxy Core Worlds, Coruscant, Galactic Republic, and also the political core.
In a luxurious restaurant on the 10th floor underground of Coruscant, a man who had shaved his hair down to only a board inch because he was bald was sitting at the dining table in the corner.
He is the chief staff of Fourth Civilization currently Prime Minister of the Cabinet Francis-Underwood, Douglas-Stamp.
He has a thin face, deep-set cheeks and prominent cheekbones, and his eyes are as sharp as an eagle's. At this moment, he was twirling the wine glass in his hand, without saying a word, and his calm eyes just kept staring at the person sitting opposite him.
It was a Neimoidian, just like other Neimoidians. He wore a robe and a high crown. There was no nose on his ugly face, and there were no eyelids outside the orange eyes, only a thin film.
However, unlike those usually arrogant Neimoidian, this person was restless at the moment, sometimes looking at the expression of the person opposite, sometimes lowering his head and playing with his fingers.
After a long time, until cold sweat began to break out on Neimoidian's forehead, Douglas slowly said, "It is not a wise thing to try to manipulate Trade Federation's accounts, and what is even more unwise is that your behavior has been discovered. Do you think so? Mr. Rune Haako."
This Neimoidian named Rune Harkor was trembling all over. In order to cover up the fear in his heart, he picked up the wine glass in front of him and wanted to take a sip, but his violently shaking hand spilled the wine in the glass.
He knew that if the man in front of him revealed the matter to Trade Federation, then he, who had made false accounts and embezzled millions of Galactic credits, would only die!
One million Galactic credits is already enough to buy a frigate! He didn't think that in the eyes of Trade Federation's senior officials, he could be more valuable than a frigate.
Rune Harkou didn't know how his perfect little move was discovered. His original plan was to use the money to continue climbing up, and then get close to Sector Viceroy Newt Gunlay, who was currently climbing smoothly within Trade Federation.
But what he was waiting for was not the favor of Newt Gunlay, but the blackmail of the devil-like man in front of him!
"You... what do you want? As long as I can satisfy it, I will give you anything... Do you want this money? I will give it to you..." Rune Harkou whispered.
However, Douglas-Stamp didn't buy it at all. He just continued, "Use Trade Federation's own money to bribe Trade Federation's own senior officials so that he can get a chance to rise... Let me guess, your target is Newt Gunlay, right?"
