253. Common ideals
"But how should we start?" Obi-Wan-Kenobi looked at the ruins around him.
Although their status as Jedi Knight is respected by people throughout the galaxy, at this moment, in the eyes of some Republic Army soldiers, Obi-Wan only sees alienation and distrust.
There is no doubt that Speaker Phineas-Valorum's anger towards Jedi Order has been conveyed to the ears of every defender. People from Jedi Order are prohibited from participating in any investigative work, which is a serious accusation in itself.
"The situation is more serious than we imagined..." Obi-Wan sighed.
"You should say that the situation couldn't be more serious. You must know that this was a terrorist attack that happened under the eyes of the Speaker and Judicial Fleet. Maybe after this, there will be a bloody storm in the galaxy." Qui-Gon-Jin looked around and seemed to choose a direction casually and walked over.
"Master, do you know where the murderer is?" Obi-Wan-Kenobi hurriedly followed.
"The Force will guide us. In the air, in addition to sadness and anger, I also feel... malice, extremely deep and dark malice. Let's go." Qui-Gon-Jin continued to move forward.
In a secluded house on the outskirts of Eriadu City, the people of Nebula Front find themselves in an extremely dangerous situation.
"Has the corresponding spaceship arrived yet?" the woman who had just sent Nebula Front's statement to HoloNet asked anxiously.
She is the nominal leader of Nebula Front, 'Havoc'. In fact, the leaders of Nebula Front are called Havoc (Havac). This is just a title.
However, no one could answer her question at this moment, because among the five people they sneaked in, no one knew how to get out.
"The people we contacted have not responded at all... Now the entire planet has been blocked, and not a single spacecraft can be seen in the sky..." One of his subordinates said in frustration.
"Asshole! How dare he do this!! If he doesn't let us out, I will tell all his nonsense!!" Havoc took the unique communicator that contacted Sidious and sent messages frantically, but everything seemed to fall into stone, and there was no reply at all.
At this time, the men on the other side who were paying attention to various news on the planet suddenly screamed, Boss! Come and take a look at this!!
Havoc hurried over and saw a piece of news being broadcast on the holographic TV.
"... Now interrupting emergency news, because an extremely bad terrorist attack occurred on Eriadu Commerce Summit, Chancellor of the Galactic Republic Phineas-Valorum is about to deliver a speech to the entire galaxy. I hope everyone can unite and overcome the difficulties together." said the host Republic News Network.
The screen turned, and Chancellor of the Galactic Senate Phineas-Valorum appeared on the screen. He sternly condemned the terrorist attack and announced that the "most vicious terrorist organization" - Nebula Front - would be wanted in the entire galaxy.
It didn't matter what he said. When she saw his face, Blaster pistol fell from Havoc's hand. She was shocked and speechless, "How... how is it possible! How is it possible!! I should have killed Valorum! He is in the fourth convoy, right? In the fourth convoy!! Isn't it?"
Her words became louder and more excited. She grabbed one of her men by the shoulders and screamed like a shrew.
"... Let us deeply mourn the representatives who died in this terrorist attack, including the governor of Trade Federation and the representative of Kuat Drive Yards..." The voice from the holographic TV over there kept coming.
"Wait a minute! Trade Federation? Kuat Drive Yards?? Why them? I should have killed Phineas-Valorum!!" Another subordinate also exclaimed.
Havoc fell to the ground, his eyes dull.
Now that things have developed, she has completely understood that she has been betrayed! No, in other words, from the beginning, the adult just regarded himself as a disposable chess piece, throwing it away after use without hesitation.
The corresponding spaceship... will never come.
At this time, there were footsteps outside the door, and then the wooden door was kicked open with a bang. A subordinate subconsciously raised his gun and fired. However, there was a buzzing sound, and the green Lightsaber fired first and bounced the explosive beam back to hit the subordinate's chest!
Qui-Gon-Jin and Obi-Wan Kenobi walked in, "No matter who you are, you have been arrested. In the name of Jedi Order."
Havoc gritted his teeth, shouted, picked up the pistol from the ground, and shot at them crazily!
"... The matter is over, my friend and mentor. I think we are one step closer to our goal." The holographic projection reflected a man with a thin body, a high hairline, high cheekbones and sunken eye sockets, but a sharp gaze like an eagle.
Sheev-Palpatine smiled slightly and said lightly, "Everything just happened according to the situation, didn't it? My friend, Wilhuff-Tarkin Grand Moff."
"Nebula Front idiots, they have no idea whether they are qualified to stand with you. They actually think they can threaten you." Tarkin Grand Moff smiled coldly, "But in fact They don't know anything. Even in this riot, they were just the ones who pressed the switch... They won't know why those robots were sent in, nor how the deployment of the robots and the order in which the representatives entered were completed."
Palpatine's smile was also a little sinister, "This terrorist attack will make Phineas-Valorum lose everything, and it will also let everyone in the galaxy see the corrupt nature of Galactic Republic."
"What we need is a power as strong as steel, not a weak Galactic Republic like a sick camel beast." Tarkin agreed.
"Valorum still has his historical mission, and he cannot withdraw yet. When Galactic Republic is at his most chaotic and weakest, people like him are still needed to bear all the blame." Palpatine said.
"I can't wait for that day."
"It won't take long. Even if he tries his best, he can't stop Vice Chancellor Batan from stepping down this time. From now on, Galactic Senate will be just a loner."
"The galaxy needs a war... We need a war! Only through the tempering of blood and fire can the essence be eliminated and the essence be preserved. In this decaying Galactic Republic ruins, a real power will be born!" Tarkin Grand Moff's eyes flashed with fanatical light.
Palpatine responded with a smile, "This is our common ideal."
