512. Battle of Geonosis (2)

"That's right! Das-Sidious is the name of the great Sith Lord! Galactic Republic has been decayed and rigid for a long time. This is when Galactic Republic is at its weakest. Don't destroy at this time. Galactic Republic, how long will it take for us to rule the galaxy?" Count Dooku opened his hands and said, "Dass-Sidious has been planning for this great cause for decades, and now we are the Joiner of this great plan!"

On the other side of the conference table, InterGalactic Banking Clan co-chairman San Hill cast a searching look at Tang Xiao. Tang Xiao just smiled and shook his head.

Thornhill understood, lowered his head and stopped talking.

At this time, Tang Xiao asked, "Did you just say that this great Sith Lord holds a high position in Galactic Republic?"

"Yes! It is precisely because of this that he can cooperate with us inside and outside to destroy the rule of Galactic Republic." Count Dooku said, and Tang Xiao also understood that he really thought so.

"In that case, why is Joiner all of us here, and not Kuat, not Rendili, not Corellia?" Tang Xiao asked in return, and he pointed at the Others sat down and said, "Let me put it more bluntly. Do you think we, Trade Federation, InterGalactic Banking Clan, Corporate Alliance, are any different from Kuat, Rendili?"

This question was very pointed, and several other people also frowned and looked at Count Dooku.

"Because they are the core of Galactic Republic's rule, they are Galactic Republic itself, and they cannot overthrow themselves! What we have to do is to unite all forces, overthrow these vested interests, and then build a powerful New Order!" Count Dooku said.

Tang Xiao didn't want to argue with Count Dooku. He just wanted to put this issue in the open. Now that his goal was achieved, he nodded and stopped talking.

Trade Federation Governor Newt Gunray said, "Darth-Sidious planned the robot riot of Eriadu Commerce Summit. This incident also shows that he has great supernatural powers and good hands and eyes among Galactic Republic. It is precisely because of this that I am willing to join his plan. I believe you are the same, right? Governor Tang."

Tang Xiao had long noticed the fear deep in Newt Gunray's eyes, and he knew that Newt Gunray was really scared.

Because Newt Gunray felt extremely frightened after Battle of Naboo, he once went to Count Dooku and told him about Darth-Sidious, hoping that Count Dooku could inform Jedi Order about it.

But now Count Dooku says that he is Das-Sidious's apprentice?! How could this not frighten Newt Gunray.

Tang Xiao gave Newt Gunray a bright smile and said, "Of course, the power of Darth-Sidious is indeed terrifying. But more than this, I am more concerned about which senior official of Galactic Republic is Darth-Sidious? Alderaan Councilor Bail-Organa? Rynoth Councilor Orn Free-Tower?"

"When the time is right, we will naturally meet Das-Sidious himself. And now, what I am about to show you is the power given to us by this great Sith Lord!" After Count Dooku finished speaking, he nodded towards Poggle-the Grand Duke of the Inferior.

Poggle-The inferior person took out a memory and projected the contents directly onto the huge holographic projection in the middle of the conference table.

The projection of a spherical interstellar base appears in front of everyone! Moreover, there is a very obvious trench in the equatorial part of this planet-like interstellar base, and there is a huge saucer-shaped device in a conspicuous position of the interstellar base.

Around the projection, countless data and exploded views scrolled, indicating that the superweapon had been designed and was just waiting to begin construction.

Seeing this design drawing, not only the other people present, but also Tang Xiao's heart beat violently! There is no doubt that this thing is one of the most terrifying weapons in "Star Wars" - Death Star (Death Star)!!

Count Dooku said, "What you see is the DS-1 platform, a super giant combat satellite with a diameter of 120 kilometers. When it is completed, it will have the power to directly destroy any planet. No Planetary Shield can resist it! This is the guarantee of our victory! This is the proof of the supreme power of Dath-Sidious!"

"Building this thing will crush our finances." Tang Xiao said.

"Think about the day when Galactic Republic will kneel down and beg for his life in front of this super weapon! All investments will be rewarded." Count Dooku said.

Others began to whisper among themselves, obviously shocked by this super weapon.

At this moment, the alarm sounded again. Poggle-Inferior Grand Duke looked at the communication, jumped up, and said angrily, "Those Jedi Knight are destroying our orbital defense cannons!"

"They are preparing for the arrival of the fleet! We have been discovered, everything is over!" Newt Gunray's adjutant Rune Harkou said in horror, covering his head.

"We are not scared by just 200 Jedi Knight." Count Dooku said coldly, "General Grievous! Let the fleet enter Geonosis's atmosphere and destroy those Jedi Knight!"

During the communication, General Grievous said, "Jedi Knight is attacking the orbital defense cannon, which means that they will have a fleet coming later! I can't let the fleet leave the outer orbit! Let Saboss Clan go down!"

"The command of the fleet will be left to you." After Count Dooku finished speaking, he touched his snow-white beard and said, "This is also a good opportunity to lure those Jedi Knights over and annihilate them all... Jedi Knights are not common in such a large-scale dispatch. Have you caught the two Jedi Knights in the factory?"

"They were blocked by Destroyer droid in the workshop. They have surrendered. We are bringing them over and locking them in the dungeon." Poggle-Inferior said.

At the same time, three Saboss Destroyers of the Saboss Clan descended from the sky and entered the atmosphere of Geonosis. They went directly to the orbital defense cannon that was attacked by Jedi Knight's fleet, and started fighting with Jedi Knight's fighter jets.

And a large number of Nantex-class fighters also took off from the hidden airports of Geonosis, and they rushed towards them in a dark way.

In the atmospheric environment, Jedi Knight's fighter jets cannot fly at the exaggerated speed in the space environment, but correspondingly, Saboss Clan's warships do not dare to fire unscrupulously, Master Windu Seizing the opportunity, he ordered Jedi Master Adi-Gallia to lead a Jedi fighter detachment to attack Saboss Clan's battleship!

At this time, Count Dooku, accompanied by Poggle-inferior, arrived in the dungeon below the main lair, followed by Tang Xiao, Newt Gunray, and Thorn Hill.

Only Obi-Wan-Kenobi and Anakin-Skywalker were seen being locked in the middle of the dungeon by the laser force field, unable to move.

"Long time no see, Governor of Dawn Star Planet. It's a pity that we helped the wrong person back then." Obi-Wan-Kenobi looked at Tang Xiao and said.
