2773, Olegar's Fist

"Olegar's Fist (Fist of Ulrezaj)?" This name made Demetrius-Zaarin slightly startled. He thought carefully, but he still didn't understand which race the pronunciation of this strange name came from, and he had never heard of this name.

He could only use his scientific researcher's intuition to judge that the pronunciation of this name must be very ancient, and it was definitely not a commonly used pronunciation by humans.

Logically speaking, if there are really pirates who can compete with the Calamity Legion, then he must have heard of it. After all, Imperial Navy Intelligence Department sect regularly releases major danger lists. Especially for a general like him who is in charge of scientific research, which involves the transportation of many rare materials and prototypes, he needs to pay attention to pirates from all over the world.

The intelligence dealer explained, "Olegar's Fist is a group of mercenaries that has only recently begun to rise in Mandalore star sector. They are actually a powerful group formed by the union of several pirates. Their leader is called Olegar should be a very charismatic guy. He convinced the pirates to form such a mercenary organization. Some people say that Olegar was once a powerful Jedi Knight, but no one can confirm this."

"Jedi Knight? How ridiculous!" Demetrius-Zaarin snorted coldly, "Then contact this Olegar and see who he is. Kronda, you go and make arrangements."

"Okay, Lord Marshal." Kronda nodded.

He quickly left the command room and went to the communications center to arrange contact matters.

Three hours after the contact signal was sent, the other party sent back an encrypted message: Agree to meet. So in the conference room of the Zaarin flagship, he met the mysterious leader of the mercenary group, Olegar.

Scarlet flames burned on the screen. In the flames, a pair of eyes with a terrifying light stared at Demetrius-Zaarin. This gaze seemed to be able to see directly through his soul!

Just by looking at him, Zaarin felt a wave of fear, a fear that came from his soul! He couldn't help but support his chin with both hands to cover up his fear, forced himself to be calm, and said, "The special effects are pretty good, Mr. Olegar. At least on this point, I approve of your aesthetics."

He wanted to use these words to try to take the initiative in the conversation.

However, Olegar was not afraid at all. He didn't even want to pay attention to Zaarin's pitiful temptation. He said coldly, "Your head is very valuable to the Galactic Empire. You should give me a reason... a reason not to kill you."

The voice of Olegar played through the communicator was hoarse and terrifying, as if a saw blade was tearing directly into the brain.

Zaarin swallowed and said, "According to what I know about Imperial army, if you go to them with my head, they will just kill you and get a double bounty... But I am different. As long as you can help me get rid of Galactic Empire's fleet and reach Outer Rim Territories, I am willing to give you... 2 billion Imperial credits."

He held up two fingers with a trembling hand.

"You don't have 2 billion credits." Olegar said directly.

"But I have a complete set of data on TIE Defender fighter! Both Kingdom of Dawn and Rebel Alliance are willing to pay a high price to buy it! As long as you can take me out and protect me to complete the transaction, then 2 billion credit points will be credited to your account immediately." Demetrius-Zaarin said.

"But you also hired Calamity Legion." Olegar said.

Zaarin gritted his teeth and said, "Galactic Empire's fleet Commander is Thrawn. He is not an enemy that any of your mercenary groups can fight alone! I also hired Calamity Legion to increase the chance of success. Don't worry, I will not lose a penny of the money I promised you."

"Hehehe... very interesting! Human. Yes, I agree to your request." Olegar laughed with interest, "Tell me your plan."

Demetrius-Zaarin called up the star chart, clicked a mark on it, and said, "Thrawn is in Pengalan IV (Pengalan IV) The planet has set up a line of defense. I must break through here before I can enter Hydian Way. Calamity Legion has already started heading to Azure Planet (Azure). I plan to gather there first and then attack the Pengalan IV planet!"

"My fleet will go." After Olegar finished speaking, as the scarlet flames gradually extinguished, the communication was also shut down.

Demetrius-Zaarin fell down on the chair as if he had lost all strength. He found that his back was covered in cold sweat. Although it was just a simple conversation, the pressure Olegar brought to him was too great. Zaarin began to believe that he might really be fallen Jedi Knight, or even Jedi Master!

"Lord Marshal... I feel like this Olegar also has bad intentions..." Adjutant Kronda said.

"I have checked his employment record, and his reputation is indeed very good. He can basically complete the tasks entrusted to him, and he never delays, never increases the price, and does what he says." Zaarin said in a deep voice, "And we have no retreat, we must find them. Otherwise, Calamity Legion might really eat us up!"

As soon as Calamity Legion was mentioned, Kronda's face couldn't help but become paler.

When they first came out of Core Worlds, in order to find foreign aid, they contacted Calamity Legion, who had broken through Imperial frontier and was wreaking havoc everywhere in Inner Rim and Mid Rim Territories. Because they heard that Calamity Legion was burning, killing and looting all the way in the within the Empire, and was even involved in the murder of Silas-Tagge, one of the heirs of Core Worlds's powerful Tagge family, who was a famous presence on the the Empire blacklist.

Zaarin believes that they will not betray him. After all, they are all Galactic Empire's mortal enemies.

Who knows, after they started to cooperate, Zaarin discovered that Calamity Legion and their leader Roan were completely crazy! They were only seeking profit and were cruel in their methods. No one fell into their hands. One of them has a good ending. Roan never follows rules and only establishes its power with blood. They once witnessed a planet being massacred by the Calamity Legion due to resistance. A large number of civilians were killed, farmland and infrastructure were destroyed, and almost blood flowed into a river.

Not only that, every time they met, Demetrius-Zaarin could clearly feel that Roan looked at him with a chilling greed, as if he was just admiring a trophy that was about to be obtained.

But at that time, the fleet in his hands still had a certain strength, and Arden-Lin had not left yet, so Calamity Legion did not do anything extraordinary.

Zaarin also saw the powerful power of the Calamity Legion's strange-looking warships, which were generally equipped with light-sensitive radar arrays, which made him even more wary of the Calamity Legion.

But now, Arden-Lin has left and his fleet has suffered heavy losses. Zaarin has no doubt that Roan will definitely kill all his group before this action and monopolize TIE Defender's technology!

The only thing Demetrius-Zaarin wants now is to arrive at Outer Rim Territories as soon as possible, and then sell the design drawings of TIE Defender in exchange for enough money to protect themselves. Resources. He knows very well that as long as Outer Rim is reached, the Empire's fleet will never dare to pursue it, even if Commander is Admiral Thrawn.

Outer Rim Territories no longer belongs to the Galactic Empire.

As long as the fleet of the Empire dares to leave their control area and enter Outer Rim, it will immediately be attacked by the ubiquitous Rebel Alliance, cut off supplies, cut off the escape route, and then be depleted to the last battleship in the endless harassment.

So now Outer Rim Territories, even though there are still a large number of planets claiming to be loyal to the Galactic Empire, in fact, there is no difference between these planets and independence and self-governance.

At that time, as long as Outer Rim can gain a firm foothold and rebuild TIE Defender fighter's production line, then Demetrius-Zaarin will at least have the ability to protect itself. After that, let's continue to develop...

The next day, Zaarin's fleet arrived at Azure Planet.

Now his fleet is very shabby, with only 8 Light Cruiser, one Imperial-class Star Destroyer, and one Victory-class Star Destroyer, plus 40 frigates.

Moreover, almost every one of these warships was riddled with pits and scars. It was obvious that they had experienced very fierce battles. It could also be seen that they were almost forced into a desperate situation by Admiral Thrawn's fleet.

Zaarin stood on the bridge, with his hands behind his back, staring in the direction of Azure Planet through the porthole, silent.

After about an hour, suddenly the large white light began to flash, and a large number of battleships emerged from the hyperspace channel!

Moreover, these battleships are out of hyperspace, just in time to surround Zaarin's fleet!

Such extremely precise hyperspace jumping technology alone is definitely not something that a battleship built by the Galactic Empire can achieve!

I only saw those battleships that were simple and ferocious in shape. What they had in common was that each battleship was equipped with a light-sensitive radar array. At first glance, it looked like a solar panel.

After this period of dealing with each other, Demetrius-Zaarin can also recognize most of the models - Lumberer-class heavy frigate 180, Rift-class destroyer 5 0 ships, Jaguar-class destroyer 20 ships, Scimitar-class Light Cruiser 10 ships, Sickle-class light cruiser 3 ships, and Storm-class heavy cruiser 10 ships.

Without exception, these battleships possess terrifying firepower, terrifying speed, and terrifying flexibility. Almost all of them are designed to give up protection capabilities. Only a madman would pilot such a battleship.

Demetrius-Zaarin also knows that what is here is not all the strength of the Calamity Legion. They have also established secret bases in other places. No one knows how many warships and fighter jets they really have!

At this moment, Calamity Legion's warships have surrounded his fleet, and the active Fire Control Radar is scanning the Zaarin fleet unscrupulously. The Blackhole holes of the cannons are aimed at the cockpit and engine core of each warship. The sharp, vulgar, and hoarse jeers of the ferocious pirates can be heard from the public channel.

The communication screen in front of him flickered, and a tall, muscular Falin appeared. His figure was completely different from the generally slender Falin, and he had an extremely ferocious and terrifying expression on his face.

"Roan... What do you mean?" Demetrius-Zaarin asked through gritted teeth.

This person is none other than the leader of the Calamity Legion, Roan.

"It's not interesting, Lord Marshal." Roan said in a strange tone, "It's just that someone told me that you don't have the money to pay our commission, which makes me a little scared."

The muscles on Zaarin's face twitched, suppressing the anger in his heart, and growled, "I told you many times! I have all the data of the TIE-Defender fighter! This is the most powerful fighter in the galaxy now! Rebel Alliance and Kingdom of Dawn both want this! As long as you give them the data, I will immediately get enough money to pay your commission!"

"But... you still have no money now." Roan made an ugly face.

"Can't you understand what I'm saying?" Zaarin scolded sternly.

"You should know that credibility is the most important thing in our business." Roan spread his hands and said, "You have no money, which makes it difficult for me to explain to my brothers. You see, I lost more than 800 brothers last time to cover your escape... How about this, you give me the pensions of those 800 brothers first."

Zaarin felt a chill in his heart, and goosebumps began to appear. He said with a stern voice, "I accept the pension for 800 people! As long as I get the money, I will give it to you right away!"

"The question is, how do I know that the technology in your hands can be sold for so much money?" Roan asked.

"You have seen the power of TIE Defender fighter!"

"But can you prove that the data in your hand belongs to TIE Defender?" Roan stretched out his index finger and shook it, and said, "Well, I brought an expert. How about you give him the data and let him inspect the goods?"

As he spoke, he pulled a timid young man wearing glasses from outside the screen and pushed him in front of the screen, putting his arm around his shoulders. "Let me introduce you, this is the top fighter in the galaxy... er, scientist, Professor Vasquez."

"Are you kidding me?" Zaarin gritted his teeth. This young man was obviously a graduate caught from nowhere, and Roan's purpose was TIE Defender's data.

"You must know that I am not discussing with you." Roan showed a cruel smile.

At this moment, piercing alarm sounds came from both sides of the communicator at the same time! Zaarin and Roan looked back at the same time, and their radar soldiers were both reporting the same news - large-scale hyperspace fluctuations were detected!

Demetrius-Zaarin breathed a sigh of relief. No matter who came, even if it was Galactic Empire's fleet, he really didn't want to face Roan, the murderous madman again.

In the dazzling white flash, they saw one battleship after another leaving hyperspace and approaching them. The first one was a Deceiver-class destroyer, and it was the flagship version! The length of the ship reached 2177 meters!

"Let me see, what will happen next? Insignificant human beings. Hahahaha..." Another communication was forcibly cut in, and the figure wrapped in scarlet flames appeared on the screen - Olegar!
