2486.Operation Poseidon (2)
"Stealth Special Operations Ship? Bastard! What to do! Kill them quickly!!" This the Empire Colonel Commander was furious. He was just a staff officer of the second line, not even the third or fourth line. The Stealth Special Operations Ship written in the Imperial Navy manual naturally knew it, but he was completely confused about how to deal with it.
"Fight... fighter formations!" Another operational staff officer raised his hand and said timidly, "Naval Operations Manual said that fighter formations are used to detect and destroy these Stealth Special Operations Ships."
Don't blame him for being so timid and cowardly. In an environment like Imperial Navy, anyone who speaks casually may be held accountable. Everyone does not seek merit but seeks no fault. In this war situation that looked like it was going to collapse, he was already a very brave naval officer who dared to speak up and offer opinions.
"Our fighter formation! Uh..." Operation Commander was about to order the fighter formation to attack, but then he thought, where did the fighter formation come from! Now all the fighter jets have either been shot down, or they are chasing each other inside Death Star!
Finally, he responded, "Let Light Cruiser Squadron come back immediately! Kill all those Stealth Special Operations Ship!"
The 50 Aquitenes-class light cruiser immediately gave up attacking the transport ship, turned back to defense, and were on guard around Imperial-class Star Destroyer. And those Purification-class stealth special operations ship were indeed greatly restricted in their movements, and could no longer pose a threat to Imperial-class Star Destroyer.
At this time, the large number of transport ships finally lost their threat. They all flew towards Tarassia's atmosphere, and some of them were even able to fly directly towards Death Star!
When the transport ship entered the atmosphere, it couldn't even wait for landing. The hatch opened, and a dense, black and heavily armed Geonosians flew out!
These are all Geonosians who came here from Geonosis, who would rather fight to death to save their own Queen!
There were six million of them in total. Even though many of them were shot down by the Aquitenes-class light cruiser formation on the way forward, more than five million of them still reached their destination. They either entered Tarassia or Death Star and immediately entered the battle.
Unlike those Geonosians who revolted on Tarassia, these Geonosians from their home planet were funded by Kingdom of Dawn. Everyone was fully armed and even carried heavy weapons.
Not only that, a large part of these Geonosians are Warrior Caste! Their combat capabilities are completely different from those of the rebellious workers.
Geonosian Warriors is holding their specialty Sonic Blaster Rifle. This weapon can not only cause damage through Blaster Beam, but the directional high-frequency sound waves it emits can even penetrate armor and bunkers, causing a stun effect on people behind. The only drawback is the short range.
The arrival of these millions of Geonosian warrior finally made the battle situation within Tarassia and Death Star completely out of control!
On multiple battlefields, Imperial defense forces, which was still struggling to hold on, finally collapsed.
In the direction of the shield generator, the defense line built by Imperial army was overwhelmed by hundreds of thousands of Geonosians. They swarmed in, installed bombs, and blew up the entire shield generator!
The huge energy facility of the shield generator exploded, creating a horrific explosion that could be described as devastating. The fire of the explosion could even be seen in space!
At the same time, Deflector Shield, which had been protecting Death Star, flashed and disappeared completely.
A Gemini Air-to-Air Missile launched by a Wraith fighter during the battle was deflected due to interference by Imperial-class Star Destroyer, and exploded on the outer armor of Death Star with a bang.
This is also the first damage Death Star has suffered since the battle began.
Immediately afterwards, Kingdom of Dawn's warships, under the command of T-series tactical robot, turned their guns and fired at Death Star! Countless heavy Turbolaser cannon shells fell on Death Star, exploding countless huge fireballs.
However, these warships also suffered crazy revenge from Imperial fleet, and one warship after another was destroyed. After destroying another Imperial-class Star Destroyer, those Purification-class stealth special operations ship were destroyed by the escorting Light Cruiser.
At the same time, after small and medium-sized warships such as Light Cruiser and frigates return to defense, it will be difficult for Kingdom of Dawn's Wraith Fighter Squadron to find opportunities to attack those Star Destroyer. Most of them flew into Death Star to delay the battle and reinforce Geonosians's operations.
Imperial Navy Finally, after suffering heavy losses, the battle situation was back under control.
But... it's too late!
Boom! boom! boom!!
Explosions continued to sound, and with each explosion, the ground shook violently, as if an earthquake was erupting anytime and anywhere.
Orson-Krennic, who was in the internal energy control center of Death Star, finally felt the threat of death. He held his head in both hands and shouted, "No! No! We are going to die! We are going to die!!"
"That's enough!! Shut up!!" Prophetess Dara grabbed him and roared loudly in his face, "Where are the reinforcements! When will the reinforcements arrive!?"
Orson-Krennic finally came to his senses and said, "There are still two hours! The Empire will send a main fleet to reinforce! No... it's too late... I will die here!"
"Yes, you can only wait for death if you stay here!" Prophetess Dara said, "Now Death Star has been invaded by a large number of Geonosians inside, and we will be surrounded soon!"
"What should I do? What should I do? No... I shouldn't be here! I'm going to die..." Orson-Krennic yelled in collapse.
"No! We still have a way to reverse the situation!" Prophetess Dara said, "Follow me! Take Death Guard with you! This is our last chance!"
"Where are you going? Going back to the battleship?" Orson-Krennic asked blankly.
"No! Bastard! Follow me to Geonosian Queen's lair!" Prophetess Dara said. He must convince Krennic to go with him, otherwise, those Death Guard will not follow him.
"Queen's lair? No! I won't go! If you go there, you'll be dead!!" Orson-Krennic was horrified, "That bastard Poggle planned to trick me into the lair before! There must be a trap there!"
"No matter if there is a trap or not, we can just kill them! As long as we catch Emperor Karina, those millions of Geonosians will be gone immediately!"
"No! I won't go!" Orson-Krennic simply didn't have the guts to do such a risky combat operation.
Prophetess Dara was immediately angry. He grabbed Krennic by the collar and angrily shouted, "Do you think you can survive if you don't follow me? Look here!! Look at the construction site of the entire DS-1 project!! Haven't you discovered it yet? You're done! It's done! You're dead!! What do you think His Majesty the Emperor will do to you? Do you think you can survive his anger?"
Orson-Krennic Looking at the explosions and fires everywhere, looking at the flashing laser beams, and listening to the explosions and screams one after another, he almost collapsed and collapsed on the ground with a plop.
"That's right... it's done... I'm done..." he murmured to himself.
"You have one last chance now! Seize Emperor Karina! Put down the entire rebellion immediately, and then seize the culprit who sneaked in! Only in this way can you shift the responsibility to those Separatists agents! Only in this way can you have the possibility of being forgiven by His Majesty the Emperor!" Prophetess Dara said loudly, "Now! Get away!!"
He dragged Orson-Krennic up from the ground and walked outside.
Death Star The other side.
Bang! Bang! Bang! There were three consecutive gunshots, and bullets came from three different angles.
However, Prophetess Tana turned aside lightly and dodged all the attacks. She held the blood-red Lightsaber upside down and rushed in one direction.
With the help of the Force, she was extremely fast, leaping more than ten meters high and covering hundreds of meters in less than thirty seconds.
A figure flashed in front of him, wearing a tight-fitting combat uniform and a full-coverage helmet. It was Nova! However, Prophetess Tana just smiled coldly, "You still expect to be able to deceive me with this little trick?"
Without stopping, she dodged past the realistic holographic image, raised her hand, and a large amount of steel bars flew up from the side and shot directly into the empty air!
Nova dodged the attack of these steel bars in a slightly embarrassed manner, and continued to use the grapple gun to shuttle through the complex Death Star construction site, trying to distance himself from the Dark Prophet's pursuit. Who knew that Prophetess Tana would identify her and pursue her so hard that she couldn't get rid of her at all?
No matter what kind of trap Nova sets, and no matter where she runs, she can't escape Prophetess Tana's induction.
"Are you still planning to run?" Prophetess Tana said coldly, "I said, you can never escape, just surrender... Your future has been determined. You will be tortured and spend the rest of your life in the Empire's darkest and cruelest dungeon. If you simply surrender, I will give you a happy death."
She responded with a shot to the head! Nova almost had trouble with the C-10 sniper rifle in her hand. She didn't even aim. She held it with one hand and shot Prophetess Tana right in the forehead with her backhand!
However... the bullet was stopped by an invisible force less than half a meter away from Prophetess Tana's forehead.
"Ha." Prophetess Tana smiled coldly, and the bullet flew back instantly. Nova felt the crisis at this moment and quickly twisted his waist, but was still hit in the shoulder.
The powerful impact knocked her to the ground, and her shoulders were bleeding profusely.
"It seems... you have chosen a painful path." Prophetess Tana showed a cruel smile and walked over step by step, "I will personally be responsible for your interrogation."
"So you are a magistrate? It doesn't seem like it..." Nova snorted. She sat up from the ground and calmly placed a small device on her shoulder. A small mechanical claw immediately stretched out from the device and dug directly into the wound to dig out the bullet!
The incomparable pain made Nova groan.
"Relax. This kind of pain will just be your daily routine in the next few decades..." Prophetess Tana comforted, "Now, tell me your plan. You won't have to suffer in the future."
She had already arrived in front of Nova, with the blood-red Lightsaber pointing at Nova's forehead.
"Don't you think you've run far enough?" Nova suddenly asked.
"What? You still expect those Geonosian bugs to save you?" Prophetess Tana sneered.
Nova didn't speak either, just looked up at the ceiling.
Sudden! A gloomy and powerful voice suddenly came from behind Prophetess Tana, "Na vazil (we destroy)..."
Before Prophetess Tana could react, her head flew up, and the headless body fell to the ground. Blood spurted out from the break in her neck.
In the dark void, a shadow gradually took shape. A tall and thin figure stood in front of Nova. It was a Protoss Dark Templar! He was wearing purple armor of unknown material, a piece of black cloth on his face, and even his eyes were glowing with purple light.
If you know something about Protoss, you will understand that this is the characteristic of Lenassa tribe (Lenassa) among Nerazim.
"This is too risky, Nova." This Dark Templar of Lenassa tribe turned to look at Nova, his purple eyes staring at her wounds, and a powerful voice came from her mind.
"No way, I'm not sure I can defeat her in a head-to-head confrontation, let alone kill her... Voradul (Voidarath), thank you." Nova began to treat the wound, and she sprayed it with first aid spray.
Dark Templar Voradul helped her wrap a bandage and said, "I found no trace of Galen-Erso inside Death Star. He should be on the the Empire battleship."
Nova's face darkened, "Hmph! Those the Empire guys still protect their senior talents very well. Since they can't be found, there is no other way. Let's destroy Death Star as much as possible. Let's find a way to blow up the energy core of this big iron ball."
Voradul shook his head and said, "I don't think Emperor Karina will agree to this plan. She will even ask her subordinates to stop us."
"She wants to occupy Death Star and run away, haha! That's just an unrealistic fantasy... What does she think of the Galactic Empire? Ignore her, let's go." Nova stood up from the ground, nodded towards Voradul, activated the cloaking device and disappeared into the air.
Orson-Krennic and Prophetess Dara have already taken the shuttle. Under the protection of the two Aquitenes-class light cruiser, they broke into the atmosphere of Tarassia and flew towards the nest of Geonosians.
Along the way, Aquitenes-class light cruiser had no scruples at all and launched a frantic bombardment at the ground targets! The Turbolaser cannon's fire fell from the sky, blasting the ground into a sea of fire, and all the surrounding Geonosianss were blown to ashes.
At this point in the battle, Kingdom of Dawn fleet suicidally attacked Death Star, resulting in heavy losses. Imperial Navy's battleship has become an unshakable presence on the battlefield.
Under the cover of powerful firepower, Orson-Krennic and Prophetess Dara led Death Guard to forcibly land and kill into the nest!
