808. The unfinished reality
Outer Rim of the galaxy, Drai II.
This satellite has been abandoned for 3,900 years. Once upon a time, this was Lucian Delay's last hope to rebuild Jedi Covenant, but everything has disappeared in the long river of history over time.
But now, the place is beginning to show its vitality again.
Fifteen insect-shaped Geth cruisers are docked in the outer orbit of the planet. Hundreds of Geth fighters are collecting asteroids around the planet and sending them back for refining. Next to them, a Geth space station with a height of more than 600 meters and a width of more than 1,000 meters, like an insect nest, has been built.
This Geth space station is a comprehensive space station that integrates refining, production, processing, and manufacturing. Below the space station, three small Geth frigates are being built.
And around the space station, more than 20 turrets have been built. This kind of turret is actually the Gauss Fire Platform provided by Tang Xiao, except that Geth used its own aesthetics to change the shape of the turret into a bug shell.
Although it is a bit strange to say this, Geth is indeed more interested in biomechanics. In other words, their creation structure is more based on insects.
A bright red Elite Class Viking fighter broke away from the hyperspace channel and flew straight towards Drai II. The surrounding Geth ship ignored it and let it pass directly.
Tang Xiao drove the fighter jet into the atmosphere of Drai II, and saw only that in the gray desert, a large group of magnificent buildings had been excavated. There were lights on in some buildings, and it was obvious that people were already inhabited.
This is a group of buildings roughly equivalent to a small town. The front entrance is where Tang Xiao found Kresh's Gauntlet before.
Yes, this is the temple built by Lucien Del Rey during the last period of his life, and it is also the last stronghold of Jedi Covenant that disappeared in the long river of history.
Tang Xiao walked into the temple. When he came here again, his mentality was different. He no longer had the anxiety of looking for Relics. On the contrary, he had more time to observe the temple itself.
Like the desert outside, the entire temple is made of stone materials and is large in scale. In Lucien Delray's later years, due to an accident, he was already the last person in Dray family, and he controlled Dray family's huge property.
As a big family in the Old Sith Wars period, Dray family controlled countless wealth, and after awakening the Force, this family gradually became a powerful Force-sensitive family.
The powerful Force-sensitive formed such a behemoth through continuous intermarriage. They have wealth, power, and inheritance. They created and maintained the Jedi Covenant organization.
Jedi Covenant's acting style is completely different from that of Jedi Order. Their radicalness is not only reflected in their violent and unscrupulous calculations during the battle against Sith, but also in their use of wealth and understanding of creed.
They don't mind luxury, nor modest desires. So they will wear gorgeous clothes, live in luxurious residential areas, drive luxurious spaceships, eat all kinds of delicious food, fall in love and get married, and put more emphasis on family and family ties.
These things are prohibited in principle for Jedi Order. Especially intermarriage between Force-sensitive, after the end of Sith Wars, Jedi Order was explicitly prohibited.
This is also reflected in the temple left by Lucian Del Rey. He directly bought the planet in his later years and then built this magnificent temple.
Standing at the entrance of the temple, a solemn and solemn atmosphere arose spontaneously, and at the same time, there was also a hint of sadness.
Lucian Dre had lost everything at that time, his companions, friends, relatives, even Jedi Covenant had fallen apart, and he himself had lost his eyes.
He wanted to rebuild Jedi Covenant, and gave it a name - the True Covenant (The True Covenant), which means that although he lost his eyes, he saw the truth.
The same is true for this temple. All the stone materials are gray, which makes people feel gradually depressed, as if there is no hope.
In the end, the True Covenant founded by Lucian Dray did come to an end, and he also came to an end in depression and depression.
At the entrance of the temple is the 20-meter-tall Force Guardian. Now this Guardian has been re-erected and restored. It turns out that this is a statue of Lucian Dre when he was young, and he was still wearing Kresh's Gauntlet on his hand.
Obviously that was the peak of Lucien Del Rey. He killed Hassen of fallen to the Dark Side and got Sith artifact Kresh's Gauntlet, but it was also the beginning of his journey to Abyss - because it was also at this time that he lost everything except the cold credit points in the bank.
"Alas..." A faint sigh came from Tang Xiao's ear.
He is the heroic spirit of Lucian Dre.
"Things have changed and people have changed. What's there to lament? In my opinion, your life is complete." Tang Xiao said.
"I sigh, not because of the passing time. I sigh, because of my unfinished dream... I failed to persist to the end. In this magnificent temple on the outside, there is the hollow interior of the True Covenant." Lucien Del Rey sighed.
"Because you who founded the True Covenant were already an empty shell at that time." Tang Xiao smiled coldly.
"What do you know!"
"More than you think, Lucian."
Lucien Del Rey was silent for a long time, and then continued, "The purpose of Jedi Covenant is fighting, passion, and victory... and the True Covenant is self and survival..."
"Among all the behaviors of intelligent creatures, self-isolation is definitely the worst." Tang Xiao looked forward, "I think Zekrath will tell you the same answer."
"I can feel you talking, powerful and dark ruler, but please forgive me for not being able to hear his voice clearly." From the depths of the temple, a tall and elegant Protoss in gorgeous robes came out.
Shelak Tribe leader, Zekrath.
Beside him followed a tall, pale-skinned Protoss with purple spots. He was the temple guardian Taarim, an old but still powerful and loyal warrior.
"I'm just discussing the benefits of the Khala with a person who lived four thousand years ago." Tang Xiao replied calmly.
"The Khala is not a topic that can be used as a joke, a powerful and dark ruler. But from your last sentence, I can really feel the relevant connection." Zekrath said.
"I guess, just take a walk."
"Please." Zekrath made a gesture of please.
