The northeastern territory of the Milky Way, the Outer Rim Sector, the planet Mandalore, the capital of the new Mandalorian regime, Sundari City.
After the Battle of Mandalore Excision more than 700 years ago, more than 50% of the surface of Mandalore turned into a white crystallized desert. That orbital bombardment had a devastating impact on Mandalore, a planet that once had a pleasant climate.
For a planet rich in products, this is nothing less than a devastating destruction.
But life is tenacious. The lakes and oceans that were evaporated during the orbital bombing fell to the surface again through rainfall. Through the crystallized desert that cannot retain water, a large number of underground water bodies were formed, and a new ecological system began to be re-established.
The huge dragon-like creatures that once roamed the planet Mandalore - the 'Mythical Dragons' - have been completely extinct, and their spectacular skeletons have become a symbol of the ancient Mandalorian Crusaders' once supreme glory.
After suffering the brutal orbital bombardment, the planet's reconstruction work also progressed very quickly. After giving up its tradition of force, the new Mandalorian regime began to use all its energy on peace and construction. They proved with facts
, Mandalorians are not only powerful destroyers, but also hard-working builders.
At the same time, the Galactic Republic also played an important role in this, providing a large amount of funds and materials to help the New Mandalorians rebuild.
It's ironic to say that in the past thousands of years, it was the Galactic Republic that had been at constant war with the Mandalorians; it was also the Galactic Republic that launched undeclared war and launched orbital bombing, almost destroying the entire planet; but in the end, it was the Galactic Republic that helped the New Mandalorians
What people rebuilt was also the Galactic Republic.
In fact, the key lies here - the New Mandalorian, a man who claims to have inherited the legacy of the Mandalorians and occupies this historic planet, but at the same time pulls out his fangs and becomes
A harmless new regime.
Their philosophy is highly similar to that of the Galactic Republic after Ruusan's reform. At the same time, the Galactic Republic is also very happy to regard the emergence of the new Mandalorians as a model for its own set of 'democratic ideas' to blossom and bear fruit in the galaxy.
With funding from the Galactic Republic, the new Mandalorian regime established countless black cities in this white crystallized desert.
Why is it black?
Because these cities are covered with black protective covers to prevent the harsh radiation desert environment outside from affecting the life inside the city, when viewed from the sky, these huge black hemispheres look like countless spots dotted on the white desert.
.
In addition, countless large-scale underground planting industries have been established underground in these cities, and these fungi and plants cultivated underground have become the rations of the Mandalorians.
Of course, other cities that were not destroyed by orbital bombardment are still the same, but the living environment is much worse - such as the former capital of the planet Mandalore, Korda Bay City.
Among the emerging black cities, the new capital Sundari City is the largest of the new cities established by these new Mandalorians.
In a bar called Sunset, a large-scale dance by the Mon Calamari Dance Troupe is being broadcast live on the huge screen in the middle. In addition to their excellent shipbuilding technology, the Mon Calamari also have very good dance skills, especially
The Mon Calamari woman, who is as graceful as a mermaid, jumps and dances in the water ball restrained in mid-air by a magnetic field, which is so beautiful that it makes people enchanted.
The new Mandalorian spectators around them were sitting at their tables, chatting and laughing with their companions, and drinking moonshine wine brewed from a kind of luminous fungus.
Their clothes are neat and tidy, their conversations are polite, and there aren't even any loud people. It's hard to imagine that this place is actually a bar.
Even in the underground bars of Coruscant, the capital of the Galactic Republic, you can often see bounty hunters who behave vulgarly, wear leather jackets that facilitate mobility, and have bulging holsters on their waists or under their ribs.
But here, you can't see these people at all. Most of the people drinking in the bar are workers or white-collar workers who have finished their day's work. Some of them have just assembled civilian spacecraft from the shipyard all day long, and they come over to chat with a few workers.
Chatting and drinking, some of them had just finished a day of tiring and time-consuming management and organization work. After taking off their formal clothes, they went to the bar to watch the dance performance.
Here, you can't find a trace of war at all, as if the war is very far away from here, or it has simply never happened.
A man wearing a gray robe and an old man's mask on his face was sitting at a table in the corner, staring blankly at the huge holographic projection screen in the center of the bar.
The Hermit... put on a mask and went to the Planet Dawn to find answers for the future of the Jedi Order, Obi-Wan Kenobi.
This performance by the Mon Calamari Dance Troupe was held at the Coruscant National Theater. It was a high-level performance. Those who could watch this performance live were among the rich and noble in the entire Galactic Republic.
.
Normally, you would not be able to find any live broadcast signal for such a performance, but on the planet Mandalore, which is far away in the Outer Rim Star Region, you can actually see the live broadcast.
Just such a small detail can prove the importance the Galactic Republic attaches to the planet Mandalore.
Just as the Hermit reminded Tang Xiao before, any small actions carried out on the planet Mandalore may cause a violent reaction from the Galactic Republic.
"Sir, this is the moonshine wine you asked for. According to your request, I added a little tassu fruit juice to make the sour taste more intense. I hope you like it." The well-dressed waiter brought a glass of light green wine on a tray.
A hint of orange wine is placed on the table.
He seemed to be unable to see the hermit's unique attire at all. Of course, it was not just him. Even under surveillance, the hermit's face was a blur.
Force mask.
If the hermit got something from Tang Xiao, the governor of the Dawn Planet, besides the hermit's mask, it was the 'Force Mask' skill.
The hermit picked up the wine glass, took a sip from the gap under the mask, nodded, and took out a Republic Universal Credit Ingot worth 100 credit points.
The waiter's eyes lit up and he quickly took the credit ingot and praised, "Ah, you are so generous sir. Are you not a local? I hope you can have a good time in Sundali City."
The hermit smiled slightly, and he discovered another benefit - he was much more generous than before.
"Sundali City is a beautiful city. I was here 24 years ago." He said slowly.
The waiter felt that he had another story to tell. Under the influence of Qian's ability, he did not leave, but maintained a listening posture.
"Yes...24 years ago...during the Mandalorian Civil War," the hermit said.
"That is already in the past, sir, including the name that has been buried in the desert and will never be mentioned," the waiter said, "and now Sundari City is the safest in the entire galaxy.
place. Throughout last year, Sundari City set a record where no one died from a crime throughout the year."
"No one? No... at least I heard that there was such a person recently." The hermit said.
