725. Return

Another day passed while Tang Xiao and Qui-Gon-Jin were chatting with each other.

Until a spaceship fell from the sky. This spacecraft was completely black with a ring at the tail. It was elegant and elegant in shape. It was obviously a very advanced spacecraft.

Astro-class.

"Ah, my friend is here. It's time to say goodbye, Master Qui-Gon." Tang Xiao said.

"You have already made arrangements. If that's the case, why do you want me to go to such trouble to help you repair the communicator?" Qui-Gon-Jin laughed dumbly.

"Because the originally agreed time is still a few days away, and I don't want to spend the whole day chatting with a bad old man like you." Tang Xiao said with a faint smile.

Qui-Gon-Jin shook his head, "We probably won't meet again."

"When the war is about to end, Master Yoda will come here. If I am still alive at that time, I will come again." Tang Xiao said.

"What did you see in the cave? Why are you so sure." Qui-Gon-Jin frowned.

"I saw the answer and more mysteries. Okay, bye." Tang Xiao waved his hand casually and walked onto the landed spacecraft.

Cun Te was already standing at the door of the cabin waiting for him. He hadn't seen him for more than a year. Cun Te didn't know when he left a face of Big Beard for himself. He was also much older than before, but his spirit still permeated the surroundings.

"What were you talking about while dancing in the air just now?" Cun Te said with a smile.

"Can't you see? There is someone there." Tang Xiao said half-truthfully.

"Haha, don't come here. I didn't expect you to be so big-hearted, even when the war broke out, you actually went out to explore alone. Forget about exploring, I knew there was danger and let me come to you without contact for a few days, but you actually came..." Cun Te touched his forehead.

Tang Xiao stretched out, patted Cun Te on the shoulder and said, "Sometimes, people also need to recharge, so that they can stay active at all times, what do you think?"

"I don't believe a word you say." Cun Te sneered.

"Ah, then I'm so sad." Tang Xiao made a somewhat exaggerated expression.

"Okay, okay, Grand Governor, I'll send you back to Endor system, hurry up and finish your war." Cun Te waved his hand.

"I'm not going to Endor system, send me to Nal Hutta." Tang Xiao said.

"Why did you go to Nal Hutta when you had nothing to do?"

"Of course something happened...Hutt." After Tang Xiao finished speaking, he went over to sit on the seat, lowered the backrest, and took a nap.

Hutt Space, Hutt The satellites of the parent star Nal Hutta - Smuggler's Moon, Nal Hutta.

The black Astro-class frigate entered the planet's atmosphere silently, and the countless spiers on the planet that were 10,000 meters high pierced the sky, making Nal Hutta, which was currently in cloudy weather, look like a durian.

The reason why it is called durian is that among the many fruits produced by Dawn Star Planet, Hutt unexpectedly likes this rich and mellow fruit the most. The wealthy Hutt brings hundreds of millions of credit points in foreign trade revenue to Dawn Star Planet every year from the durian trade.

Astro-class parked on one of the tall towers. After putting down one person, he took off directly without stopping.

Tang Xiao stood next to the loading and unloading platform of the spaceport on the top of the tower, overlooking the sea of clouds below his feet. He took out his communicator, and the figures of Prime Minister Fourth Civilization and Francis-Underwood appeared in the holographic projection.

"You are finally back, Governor." Francis-Underwood straightened his suit and stood still very gracefully.

"Did nothing happen during the few days I left?" Tang Xiao asked.

"You have been away for 11 days in total. During this period, the border of the area currently controlled by Fourth Civilization was basically relatively calm. Matt-Admiral Horner conducted a military maneuver near Terminus Planet, but the other party was very alert., immediately sent a warning, saying that if our fleet continues to approach, they will immediately accept the garrison of Galactic Republic. In addition, they will deal with the remaining operations of the Republic 19th Army everywhere." Francis-Underwood said.

"Where is Confederacy of Independent Systems?"

"Count Dooku once personally sent a communication, highly appreciating our previous military operation to destroy 19th Army. In addition, he hopes that we can reinforce Suluust. Recently, Republic 18th Army has strengthened In order to launch an offensive against Suluust, their actions did not stop because of the serious injuries of Governor Wilhuff-Tarkin," Francis-Underwood continued.

"Where is Krant Planet?" Tang Xiao said a name coldly.

Francis-Underwood was startled, but shook his head and said, "That was an accident..."

"There are never any accidents. Tell me why Krant Planet was attacked." Tang Xiao said coldly.

"Krant Planet is the experimental facility established by Count Dooku after we handed him the data of Extractor. In order to ensure a huge energy supply, Energy Center was also built on nearby Aereen Planet. This project was funded and built by Trade Federation, Fourth Group, Technological Alliance, Merchant Guilds, and Retail Association also sent representatives to join, and our representative is Lieutenant General Cheng Shitao. In fact, Confederacy of Independent Systems didn't pay enough attention to this project, and Lieutenant General Cheng Shitao was basically in charge later on," said Francis-Underwood.

Tang Xiao nodded.

Francis-Underwood continued, "But later, the Extractor Project test progress on Krant Planet lagged behind. The main reason was that the energy supply of Aereen Planet was insufficient. Lieutenant General Cheng Shitao went to Aereen Planet personally to coordinate with the Trade Federation representative Purul Barron stationed there... But at this time, a shabby Hunter Class Battlecruiser suddenly attacked."

"Tattered Hunter Class?" Tang Xiao frowned.

"Yes, all the signs about Galactic Republic on the battleship have been erased. But those who landed from the battleship are indeed Clone Trooper, although their combat armors also look very worn. However, it is said that this army has extremely strong combat capabilities and easily destroyed our defenses. Also in this battle. During the fight, Lieutenant General Cheng Shitao disappeared. Later we found him in the ruins. He was crushed by the debris of an exploded AAT tank and was seriously injured. He is still receiving treatment at Dawn Star Planet," said Francis-Underwood.

"All planets involved in Extractor Project should be kept absolutely confidential. Why would Galactic Republic know about this? Also, why would Galactic Republic's battleship appear in Hutt Space?!" Tang Xiao looked grim.
