708. The confusing war (end of this article)
After Das-Tenebrus left, Das-Malthael raised his hand and felt Dark Side Force.
If we want to describe the Force in the entire galaxy now, it would be a vast sea, full of light.
However, in the sky over this sea, there is a layer of clouds covering the sky, blocking the originally bright sunshine, preventing the temperature of the sun from shining into this supposedly warm sea water.
The seemingly bright sea is gradually losing its temperature.
And in the depths of the sea, there are two whirlpool undercurrents. These two undercurrents are constantly rotating and growing. Although they are crushing each other in the process, they are still using the energy of the sea itself to gradually become more violent.
The sea seems calm, but if you are not careful, you will be sucked into the whirlpool and you will never be able to extricate yourself.
Darth-Tenebrus was resurrected, but not resurrected. The sea of the Force has not changed much. There are still only two vortexes and undercurrents. The huge one is called Sidious, and the small but firm one is called Malthael.
Destiny does not lie with Tenebrus, at least not now.
Das-Malthael understood that the reason why Tenebrus was so respectful to him after his resurrection was precisely because he had seen through his destiny at that moment.
But never underestimate any Sith Lord, especially the Sith Lord who created an existence like Das-Pregas.
On this seabed, an extra reef has appeared. It was so dark that it was almost impossible to see any shape on it. Although it was extremely small, it was still absorbing every tiny piece of Shale brought up by the two vortexes and undercurrents on the sea floor, and gradually grew.
In this the Force sea, under the influence of this small reef, the wind and waves seem to be stronger.
The Force, there is the Will. This is one thing that Tenebrus has been teaching Das-Malthael for more than ten years. On this point, it runs counter to the theory of Malthael's original master Das-Pregas, but Malthael is more inclined. Tenebrus's description is closer to the essence of the Force.
The reason why Darth-Malthael resurrected Darth-Tenebrus this time was because he thought he was ready and should go to the next stage of the trial.
Darth-Malthael understood this after the failed attempt to assassinate Wilhuff-Tarkin.
In a short time, whether it is the battle between Fourth Civilization and 18th Army, or the expedition plan of Sefrans-Tann, it will not end in a short time. At this time, he needs to go further.
Das-Sidious is getting stronger and stronger, he can sense it from Dark Side Force. Because he and Das-Sidious come from the same inheritance.
After arranging the recent work, and letting Francis-Underwood secretly take over the duties of the governor, and arranging a T-850 with the appearance of Tang Xiao as a stand-in, Das-Malthael took Sith Infiltrator Red Comet and went to an unknown star field.
Before Count Dooku and Jedi Order really fell out, he secretly went to Jedi Order's database and deleted the coordinates of 38 planets, and the planet that Darth-Malthael was about to go to was one of them.
Planet Dagobah(Dagobah).
He wants to explore his own essence and understand the origin of all this. Planet Dagobah may give him the answer.
Red Comet moved smoothly through the universe, hovering around the periphery of a green planet. Das-Malthael completely handed over the driving of the spacecraft to a navigation robot, while he sat in the control room of the spacecraft with his eyes closed and meditated.

Tang Xiao.
Where do I come from?
Earth, Huaxia.
Where am I now?
"Star Wars", Planet Dagobah.

I'm from...
"You are wrong! Stupid apprentice! You have never seen yourself clearly!" Das-Pregas said, "Do you know why I gave you the name Das-Malthael? You still don't understand it until now! It is impossible for me to have played "Diablo", but I said this name. You have no idea what I saw in the long river of the Force... This... is not just a name."
"This is a name, the name of a virtual character in a virtual game. Malthael, Archangel of Death."
"When the power is given this name, it is no longer virtual. The virtual one is Malthael, not Darth-Malthael." Darth-Pregas said coldly, "Why are you called Darth-Malthael?"
"What did I see?" Das-Pregas's voice still echoed around.
"What do I feel?" Das-Pregas still kept asking.
"What did I teach you?" His voice was like a sharp thorn, piercing directly into the soul of Darth-Malthael!
Das-Malthael suddenly let out a painful scream, "Wahhhhhhhhh!!!"
Red Comet emitted billowing smoke, fell straight from an altitude of tens of thousands of meters, and then crashed into a primitive jungle. Finally, in a violent explosion, it was completely turned into a shapeless piece of scrap metal.
Galactic Republic Capital, Coruscant.
Republic Supreme Strategic Command, command center.
"General, this is our recent combat plan, please take a look at it." A senior staff officer came to Master Windu and handed him a memory.
Master Windu activated the memory and looked at the contents carefully. After a moment, he said, "General Grievous's recent actions on the planet Ord Mantell are worthy of attention. This is the headquarters of the 8th Army, and many strange things are happening in the 8th Army's jurisdiction now..."
"That's true." Jedi Master Ploo-Kong standing aside said, "InterGalactic Banking Clan's fleet is concentrated in Muunilinst and Makito within the jurisdiction of the 8th Army, and Fourth Group fleet was depressed, but they did not take any special actions. On the contrary, five colonies on the edge of the 8th Army's jurisdiction have been attacked by unknown enemies. At this time, General Grievous's actions have to attract people's attention..."
He thought for a moment and said, "Otherwise, I will personally lead the troops to the planet Oude Mantle."
Master Windu shook his head, "I'll go to Planet Oud Mantel. You still need to recover from the injuries you sustained in the previous battle to annihilate Fang battleship."
Ploo-Kong nodded and stopped talking.
Master Windu glanced at Jedi Master Depa-Barris standing on the other side again, with a complicated expression, and said, "I have a combat mission for you, Master Barris."
Depa-Barris just looked in another direction, a little indifferent to Master Windu, and replied lightly, "You say it. As long as it is beneficial to the victory of the war, I will naturally do it."
Master Windu projected a piece of information from the memory that the senior staff officer gave him just now onto the holographic screen and said, "Given that we have just destroyed super warship Fang of Separatists, and now the morale of Galactic Republic is at its peak, we need to seize this precious opportunity to launch a counterattack and expand our results."
"Where to go?" Depa-Barris asked.
"Haruun Kal (Haruun Kal)." Master Windu pointed at a position on the star map and said with a very serious expression.
"This is your hometown." Depa-Barris said.
Master Windu did not take over the words of Depa-Barris, but continued, "Haruun Kal's civil war has lasted for 29 years. Before that, Galactic Republic had no position to interfere in the internal affairs of this planet, but now, the warlords on this planet have joined Separatists."
He looked at the planet on the star map that looked a little yellow from outer space, and said in a deep voice, "If I go to this planet, I may lose my position, so you are the only person I can choose. You are my former apprentice, Depa-Master Barris."
Depa-Barris just looked at the star map expressionlessly. It was obvious that the differences between her and Master Windu were getting bigger and bigger. But at least, she has not publicly raised any objections so far.
Master Windu continued, "On Haruun Kal, there is a unique fungus that grows very widely. This fungus has the ability to devour metal, so the loss of all mechanical equipment on this planet is very large. According to the Staff Department's plan Calculate, once we can seize the opportunity that the civil war on the planet is not over yet, expel the warlords who invested in Separatists, and reoccupy Haruun Kal, then it will be almost impossible for Separatists's robot army to take back the planet."
"In order to end this war as soon as possible, I will go to Haruun Kal." Depa-Master Barris said calmly.
Master Windu nodded and continued to say to Obi-Wan-Kenobi, "Master Kenobi, you need to talk to Anakin-Skywalker goes to Bakura planet together. There is intelligence that Separatists is about to launch an offensive there. Please be sure to curb Separatists's progress."
Obi-Wan-Kenobi nodded, "Okay, Master Windu."
"May the Force be with you." Master Windu said.
After the combat meeting, Mace-Master Windu found Depa-Barris alone. He said solemnly, "I must tell you some sad news, Master Barris."
"Nothing is more tragic than this war." Depa-Barris stabbed Windu.
"Master Sola-Balk (Sora Bulq), fallen to the Dark Side." Mace-Windu said.
Depa-Barris was finally moved. Her eyes widened and she said in disbelief, "Master Sola-Balk? How is this possible?! He is Jedi Master has outstanding achievements, and his swordsmanship is at its peak. He played a key role when you improved Vaapad lightsaber form on the basis of Form VII Juyo lightsaber style!"
Mace-Windu said, "As we all know, Master Sola-Balk is very dissatisfied with the current situation of Jedi Order, especially the outbreak of the war, which made him extremely painful. Five days ago, he personally invited several Jedi Master representatives who had different opinions on the situation of Jedi Order to a manor for discussion. I was also among the invited people..."
He paused, with an angry expression on his face, "But our party was suddenly attacked by Separatists. The dark disciples of Count Dooku, Asajj-Ventress, led troops to raid the manor. Originally, I thought Sola-Balk was also one of the victims, until I discovered that Asajj-Ventress's shuttle was parked deep in the manor... He fell, Sola-Balk."
Depa-Barris closed his eyes and remained silent for a long time.
Master Windu continued, "The reason why Master Sola-Balk fell into Dark Side of the Force is actually not unrelated to Vaapad lightsaber form. It turns out. I created Vaapad lightsaber form in the hope of integrating the strengths of light and darkness into a powerful sword technique. Although it is indeed successful, Vaapad lightsaber form will allow the user to wander on the edge of light and darkness. If he is not careful, he will completely fall."
"Do you want to talk about me? Master Windu." Depa-Barris's tone gradually turned cold.
"Haruun Kal's civil war has been going on for nearly 30 years, and its cruelty may be beyond your imagination. I really want to go there in person, but on the one hand, Windu family is also involved in the civil war. On the other hand, the war situation on the planet Ord-Mantel also makes me very concerned.. So, I can only choose to trust you in this matter. I just hope that you and your practice Vaapad lightsaber form will not be shaken by what happened on Haruun Kal." Mace-Windu said.
"My heart is extremely firm, and I will not waver in any way." After Depa-Barris finished speaking, he turned around and left, not wanting to say a word more.
From the day Battle of Geonosis broke out on May 21st, 22BBY, the entire galaxy fell into a terrible civil war. Confederacy of Independent Systems, dominated by Outer Rim Territories, split from Galactic Republic and took the initiative to start a war. The civil war between the two sides was almost out of control.
Time has entered September of 22 BBY. Confederacy of Independent Systems, which is ready to go, seems to be unstoppable. Galactic Republic is retreating steadily, and a large number of galaxies have fallen. Galactic Republic suffered heavy losses in several major battlefields, and almost all its mobile forces were lost.
Under such circumstances, Galactic Republic destroyed super warship Fang with difficulty, finally giving hope to the rotten battle situation again.
And the few behind-the-scenes masterminds involved in the war also started their own plans.
With the resurrection of Darth-Tenebrus, the struggle between Jedi Order and Sith Lord, and the struggle between Sith Lord and Sith Lord become more and more complicated.
The future of the Milky Way, and the future of Fourth Civilization, is becoming increasingly confusing.
I'm going to the countryside to visit a grave tomorrow, so I'll probably need to take a day off.
