2703. Jedi Knight's seal
On the Kingdom of Dawn side, feeling Dark Side Force is not new. Tang Xiao, the leader of Kingdom of Dawn, is himself an extremely powerful Dark Side Force users and a Sith Lord, so it is normal to have a large number of Dark Side Force sensitive under him.
In fact, many times Carl-Castis can sense the faint breath of Dark Side, but according to the standards he used to have at Jedi Order, these breaths are completely unqualified. These should be the legendary Force-sensitive. There are many of them, and they are all hidden in the dark. There is no doubt that these are all people from the military or the Intelligence Department sect.
In comparison, the smell of Force-sensitive is rare, but it is not absent. As far as Carl-Castis himself knows, in the capital of Annaj Planet, there is at least one Dark Side Force sensitive who often appears. However, this existence often appears near the city hall, and Carl has never seen him.
During the many years that Kingdom of Dawn lived, Carl-Castis also often meditated secretly and tried to exercise on his own. At least he thought that his ability to hide Force aura was very qualified. Anyway, so far, he has never been caught.
But now, Dark Side's aura appears in Sunny Recycling Company's office?
Carl-Castis frowned, and for a moment he was afraid to go up. But after waiting for a while, he found that the breath of Dark Side was very weak and motionless, as if he was dead...
No... not dead! This breath is still alive! Although it didn't move and was very weak, it was not the breath of an object!
Carl-Cold sweat was streaming down Custis's forehead, but since this thing has come, let's fight for it. Now that the matter has come to this, there is no way to escape.
He calmed down and walked into the small building.
Due to limited funds, their small building did not have an elevator, so Carl had to take the stairs. After arriving on the third floor, he came to the preparation platform, which was a relatively wide space with many lifting and dismantling equipment installed.
At the end of the platform is a docking corridor. At the end of the corridor, the docking module of "Winter", one of their company's two recovery spacecrafts, is being connected.
Seeing Carl coming, an old man who was about 60 years old, a little fat, and wearing big black-rimmed glasses came over and said with a smile, "Come here Carl! This is it! Tell you that we are rich! Hahahaha!"
This is Sunny Recycling Company's boss, Zhang Guomin. A very traditional, very old-school, even somewhat outdated person...
It is said that although he was once an expert in materials science, he immediately became confused after seeing the dazzling array of unheard-of materials. Then he reluctantly crawled in the ocean of those materials for two or three years. When he couldn't stand it anymore, he reported that he could no longer keep up with the times and chose to retire.
Zhang Guomin is a very talkative and philistine person. He actually complains a lot about the current situation of Kingdom of Dawn, but he firmly stands on the side of the government when discussing many international events.
Sometimes Zhang Guomin would also talk to Carl-Castis about first-generation hibernating immigrants like him. He once said that in fact, among Fourth Civilization's first-generation hibernating immigrants, almost all of them were experts and leaders in various fields. These people played a very key role in the construction of Fourth Civilization, especially in the early days when they were all broke.
However, there are also many first-generation hibernating immigrants who are unable to function. After waking up, they find that the things in this galaxy are completely different from what they have learned, and it is almost a subversive difference. Therefore, some of them who are talented or have a very good foundation will draw inferences from one example and quickly digest this new knowledge, but there are also many people who cannot turn this corner and eventually become completely obliterated by everyone.
Zhang Guomin is the latter. However, the Kingdom of Dawn government did not treat him badly and gave him a substantial resettlement fee so that he could make a living on his own.
Now Carl-Castis has become accustomed to some of the ways of calling people who have lived here for a long time. For example, it was difficult for him to understand the difference between Kingdom of Dawn and Fourth Civilization before, but now he knows that Kingdom of Dawn is a political name, which refers to the entire territory currently ruled by Tang Xiao.
Fourth Civilization is an ideological title. Only those who accept the values of this group of immigrants of unknown origin headed by Tang Xiao and use them as their life goals and spiritual support can be called Fourth Civilization. This range is much smaller than the ruling range of Kingdom of Dawn.
However, Fourth Civilization's values and goals are highly consistent and can be said to be one and the same. Therefore, in many cases, Fourth Civilization can accurately describe the goals of this country's core strength.
At this time, Zhang Guomin began to chatter about how he got this thing. He said that he had received a message from his personal connections before. Kingdom of Dawn's escort fleet captured a smuggler's fleet in the star field near Terminus Planet, and then the fleet was completely wiped out by the escort fleet.
Because the situation on Terminus Planet's side is very complicated, mainly because this planet is where Hutt Oruba-Goresla started. With the support of Kingdom of Dawn, he grew and developed on this planet, and eventually returned to Hutt Space and became Hutt Grand Leader.
Terminus Planet was once the outpost for Kingdom of Dawn to attack Eriadu, but after the capture of Eriadu, the strategic value of this planet, one of Outer Rim Territories's transportation hubs, dropped sharply, so the planet was later handed over to Oruba-Goresla for management.
So this planet is actually very sensitive, and there is no official salvage team nearby. For such a small smuggling group, it is not worth using the military's power. It happened that Zhang Guomin had some relationship with one of Ni Yongxiao's subordinates, so through this relationship, he obtained the right to salvage the wreckage of the smuggling group's fleet.
Generally speaking, such small-scale smuggling groups don't have much oil and water. They are basically illegally modified civilian ships, and they are shoddy and have little value. But this time, when they were dismantling and salvaging, they discovered a computer core with a different shape!
Judging from the label on the operating platform outside, this turned out to be the host computer Kingdom of Dawn Navy installed on Sentry-class Electronic Warfare Frigate - the S-0833-GW/7 tactical computer!
This is an advanced computer that can support electronic interference! And I don't know what kind of luck this smuggling group had to get this thing. Moreover, they didn't sell the computer, but installed it on their own spaceship.
This is simply a waste of natural resources! But it also gave Zhang Guomin the opportunity to recycle.
At present, Kingdom of Dawn's military does not know about this matter at all, but Zhang Guomin understands that his opportunity to make a fortune has arrived. As long as this computer is disassembled and sold on the black market, this means a profit of at least 2 million Number Four currency!
"Oh, this is really great." Carl-Castis dealt with it absentmindedly. He kept looking around, but he didn't see the person exuding Dark Side's aura.
Finally, his eyes fell on the cylindrical sealing device more than 2 meters high in front of him. This was the core of the host that Zhang Guomin found this time. Carl-Castis raised his hand and placed it on the cold shell, stroking it gently.
Suddenly, a terrifying picture appeared in his mind! It seemed like a ferocious and terrifying face, roaring silently in the void...
Carl-Castis couldn't help but take several steps back. He had been unsure just now, but now he knew clearly that the aura of Dark Side came from the inside of this host!
"What's wrong? Little Carl." Zhang Guomin saw the abnormality of Carl-Kestis, stopped talking, and came over to ask.
Carl-Castis frowned and looked at the sealed host core up and down. He shook his head and said, "It's okay. This thing... is very precise. It's great that you didn't dismantle it without permission."
"Of course, who doesn't know that you are the only Chief Engineer of our company!" Zhang Guomin said with a smile.
"Chief Engineer, who is only about thirty people including the cleaning robot?" Carl-Castis shrugged and smiled bitterly.
"Hahahaha, this is about thirty people!" Zhang Guomin patted Carl-Castis on the shoulder, "Come on, I leave it to you, open this thing. I will give you a bonus after this month."
Carl-Castis nodded. He was also a little curious as to what was inside this host exuding the aura of Dark Side. Is it a person? Or a corpse? Or an animal with the Force?
No... animals have no intelligence and basically cannot actively use the Force.
"Come out to work, BD-1. Come and cut this shell open, wait a moment... I will send you an operation code." Carl-Castis raised his wrist, opened his Omni-tool, and quickly operated on the photon interface above.
BD-1 immediately jumped up from behind him, stood on top of the cylindrical main engine sealed cabin, fired a small laser from under his head, and began to cut the outer shell bit by bit.
Carl-Castis was very careful. He pressed the outer shell with his hand, so that he could use Force sense to explore the inside of the sealed cabin very covertly. At the same time, he constantly asked BD-1 to adjust the working direction to avoid damaging the delicate computer host inside.
This is the core of the host used for Sentry-class Electronic Warfare Frigate. This frigate needs to install a large amount of electronic warfare equipment, so it is very compact inside. The core host that controls all of this is naturally a top priority and is fully protected.
Carl-It took Custis a full hour to instruct BD-1 to open the two-meter-high, not-so-large sealed cabin.
When the countless sophisticated instruments and equipment were displayed intact from the sealed cabin, a small and light cheer came from the bottom of Zhang Guomin's throat.
Carl-Castis squatted down and carefully inspected these instruments and equipment. Although he does not know the structure of this core host, he can use the Force to continuously explore and find what he wants.
There are no people, no corpses, and no small animals here. In the end, Carl-Castis found a palm-sized memory inside, and the aura of Dark Side emanated from it.
Could it be the personal belongings of a certain Sith Lord? Carl-Castis frowned and picked up the memory.
"What is this?" Zhang Guomin also saw this memory that was completely different from the core host style.
"A memory, the contents inside is encrypted." Carl-Castis said.
"It won't affect the core host, right?" Zhang Guomin is still concerned about his dream of getting rich.
"This is not part of the core host. I just checked briefly and there is nothing wrong with the host. You'd better find a computer expert to take another look." Carl-Castis stood up and said, "I'll take this thing back and see if it can be decrypted."
"Okay, go ahead. I'll give you two days off to study what's in this memory. If it's a technical blueprint, then we'll be even more developed! Hahahaha! When I get rid of this thing, I'll give you a bonus! Double! Hahahaha!" Zhang Guomin laughed heartily, as if he saw two million already in his pocket.
He hurriedly picked up the communicator and started asking old friends to arrange for a computer expert to come over.
Back in his simple apartment, Carl-Castis put the gray memory on the table and looked at it carefully.
The first time he saw this memory, he already judged that this thing was encrypted by Jedi Knight, and only Jedi Knight could open it.
But why does something encrypted by Jedi Knight exude the smell of Dark Side?
And what's even weirder is that the breath of this thing doesn't look like an object, but like a person... How can a person's breath appear in this palm-sized memory?
Holding this precision memory, Carl-Castis carefully used the Force to sweep through the inner shell of the memory, looking for the switch hidden inside - this is the encryption method commonly used by Jedi Knight. The encryption lock is placed inside so that it can never be opened from the outside without the Force.
However, after searching for a while, he couldn't find the switch at all. This only meant that the encryption of this memory was more complicated than he thought.
But at this moment, a strange breath suddenly came!
Carl-Castis jumped up subconsciously, jumped back and stood at the head of the bed, maintaining a crouching position vigilantly, with his hands already placed on a floor under the bed.
"Not bad, very alert, boy." A vague voice came, it was a man's voice.
"Who... are you?" Carl-Castis asked in a low voice.
"Don't worry about who I am, but you just need to know that this thing in your hand belongs to me." The voice said calmly, "But it's not convenient for me to carry this thing with me, so I entrusted a few friends on the road to transport it. But... it looks like they were caught."
"What is this? Are you... are you Sith?" Carl-Castis asked warily.
