2276. The demise of the illusion
Haruun Kal, outer space.
A Consular-class cruiser with the Galactic Empire logo left the hyperspace channel and appeared here. On the spacecraft, the navigator adjusted the navigation equipment and reported back, "Sir, we have arrived at the target Haruun Kal. The space station Galactic Empire is set up here. According to the identification code, it belongs to Galactic Empire's 114th Escort Fleet."
The two the Empire officers standing on the bridge, judging from their badges, are a major and a captain. They are members of this investigation team. They looked at the picture on the holographic star map and nodded, "That's right, a space port and associated battleships. It looks intact."
The major waved his hand and said, "Send a request and prepare for docking. This spaceport does look very good on the outside. We just need to ask why they haven't reported to us for the past three consecutive months. You have the report ready."
"Yes, sir." The captain nodded.
However, after a while, the correspondent said, "Sir, there is no response. They did not reply."
The major frowned and looked at the holographic star map, "That's not right. They clearly have spaceships patrolling around, why didn't they respond?"
"I'm worried about being in danger if there is no response," the captain said.
The major pondered for a while and suddenly said, "No, they didn't respond to our arrival at all, and even the patrol tracks were exactly the same. This is impossible! Move over!"
"Yes!" Although the captain had some doubts, he still did as he was told.
The spaceship approached the space port. As expected, the patrolling spacecraft did not react at all. The spacecraft directly approached the space port and docked, and the connection was completed directly. From beginning to end, there was no response from the other party.
The major thought for a while and said, "There is indeed something weird here... In fact, there is something wrong with the 114 escort patrol fleet stationed at Haruun Kal. In the previous war, a rebellion broke out at Haruun Kal, and then it should be It was from Galactic Republic. But after that, 114th Escort Fleet suddenly entered here without any warning. Separatists did not let the soldiers go over and take a look."
A group of Storm Commando Team soldiers wearing white armor filed into the space station from the docking bay, but they soon came back to report.
"Sir, everything is normal inside the space station. But... it's too normal." A captain came over and said.
"What do you mean too normal?" the major frowned.
"I can't describe it, but there shouldn't be any danger. You can go and see for yourself," the captain said.
The major followed the soldiers to the space station, only to see that it was clean and bright, with many staff walking around, busy with their own work. But the problem is that no one pays attention to them at all! Even though two officers like them came over and brought a large group of soldiers with them, the staff here simply turned a blind eye.
A soldier walked over and hit a staff member who was wiping the table over and over with the butt of his gun. However, something strange happened. It hit with a bang, but the man didn't move at all, not even moving his clothes. However, the feeling of hitting it is really similar to hitting the human body!
The soldier simply went over and tried to catch the man, but he tried his best and still couldn't move the man!
"What happened?" The soldier was confused.
"Explore everything here!" The major waved his hand and gave the order.
Although it felt strange, the Stormtroopers divided into more than ten teams to carefully explore the entire space station. Soon, each team reported that the situation here was indeed strange. Everyone seemed to be fixed and could not be stopped no matter what they did. But the objects here, such as cups and chairs, can be moved at will.
What's even more weird is that someone used a chair to block a person's way, but this person actually knew to move the chair away and then continued his actions.
The major now feels that although the windows here are bright and clear, there is an eerie atmosphere.
At the moment, he was in the restaurant, wiping a clean table casually, and said to the captain beside him, "The dining environment here should be very clean, but the previous investigation team report... I remember everything was normal, but it was mentioned that they all had diarrhea after returning, right?"
"Yes, I have also read previous investigation reports." The captain said, "They have never mentioned that the people here do such weird things. They just said that the people here are very warm and well-behaved."
The major picked up a cup, played with it in his hand, and said, "So, maybe they are acclimatized?"
They were chatting when suddenly the lights around them became dim without warning! Not only that, the surrounding environment also changed instantly, becoming shabby and dirty, with spider webs everywhere.
The cup in the major's hand turned out to be a rotten and blackened skull!!
This scene instantly frightened the major! He suddenly let out a scream like a woman, threw away the skull, and jumped directly into the captain's arms.
The entire space station has changed, all the people working on it have disappeared, and all that is left here is dilapidated. There is rust everywhere, and there are cobwebs and dust everywhere. Except for the neatly placed tables and chairs, it looks like no one has lived in the place for decades!
The lights are constantly flashing, indicating that although there is power here, it is in disrepair and is dilapidated.
The screams of their spacecraft correspondent also came from the communication, [Sir! The space station has changed! Changed! The entire space station is rusty! It simply looks like it's been in disrepair!]
Similar reports came from soldiers in other places, and they even heard gunshots, indicating that they were not the only ones who were frightened.
Not only is it dilapidated, but it's also full of corpses! The corpses had all decayed into bones and were scattered everywhere.
This is not 114th Escort Fleet's residence at all! No, it should be said that 114th Escort Fleet has disappeared long ago! There are just those decaying space stations and battleships!
In the past few years, everything reported by 114th Escort Fleet is a scam!
But the question is, who did it?
The soldiers outside suddenly heard a scream, followed by intensive gunfire!
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!!"
The major ran out quickly and saw the soldiers firing randomly into the darkness, but it was to no avail.
In the darkness, a pair of scarlet eyes suddenly lit up! Immediately afterwards, there was a blood-red Lightsaber!
The next second, those heavily armed Storm Commando Team soldiers were killed as if they were chopping melons and vegetables. No matter they used rockets or blasters, they could not stop the incoming people for even a second!
