Anakin Skywalker stood in Bravo Base, looking at the Republic soldiers outside who were cleaning the battlefield. Those soldiers were preliminary sorting out the robot remains scattered on the ground, and then using bulldozers to remove the robot remains.
All are collected together, and then a garbage dealer will come and take these things back for recycling.
On the other side, some people were driving SCVs to move goods stored in the base warehouse, and a few people were even dismantling the communication antennas on the top of the base.
A Republic officer came to Anakin and asked with some confusion: "General, what are these people here for?"
Anakin Skywalker shook his head and said casually: "This base is no longer valuable due to material mobilization."
"I...I understand..." The officer nodded doubtfully.
"Did you find the results of the scan I asked you to perform?" Anakin asked again.
"There is a natural underground cave north of the base, but no abnormal energy reactions were detected in it..." the officer replied.
"Just tell me where the entrance is."
…
Half an hour later, Anakin Skywalker arrived at the natural cave entrance, which was exactly where Count Dooku had entered a few days ago.
The tomb of Ulic Quel-Droma, the former Sith Lord who returned to the light at the last moment.
When he came to reinforce the planet Ren-Val, he felt that something was wrong with the planet. Count Dooku was even willing to send a million troops to occupy it. That was when he really started to pay attention to it.
Through his powerful force induction, he felt a different aura here, and he began to suspect that this aura was the reason why Count Dooku sent out an army to occupy this place.
However, he was unable to repel an army of millions of robots. The best thing he could do was to evacuate part of the Republic troops covering Bravo Base to preserve their strength.
After that, Anakin has always been worried about this planet, but when he applied to the Republic's Supreme Strategic Command for the military to send reinforcements to recover the planet Ren-Var, he was rejected.
Because the planet Len-Var does not have much strategic value, and the offensive of the Confederation of Independent Systems has now expanded to several major hyperspace lanes, and blockers have been set up to restrict hyperspace jumps. Tyon is the closest to the planet Len-Var.
The hyperspace channel has been cut off, and the Republic does not have the ability to deploy large-scale troops here.
So Obi-Wan Kenobi had no choice but to go to the headquarters of the Republic's 11th Legion on the planet Kolfer to recruit reinforcements. Before leaving, he asked Anakin to be patient and wait for him to bring reinforcements.
But Anakin couldn't wait any longer. The Force's induction told him that a huge threat was spreading, and the starting point was the planet Len-Var!
So he did not hesitate to find the arms dealer Yuri Orlov, even if he used illegal means, and received a large amount of weapons assistance. Then he led the surrounding local defense forces and the remnants of Bravo Base to fight all the way back to the planet Len-Var.
Under his brave and fearless battle, the separatist robots on the planet Len-Var were finally eliminated, and he finally had the opportunity to go to the cave and find out the truth of the matter.
The heroic spirit of Ulric Quel-Dolma was disturbed again. He floated out of the coffin and asked in that disembodied voice: "Come to me, do you want to get something?"
"There was a man named Dooku who came here before? What did he take from here? I want to know." Anakin Skywalker looked at the burly heroic spirit in front of him and asked.
"Oh, that's a Jedi Master. Because the remnants of the Sith Empire have resurrected, he wants to completely destroy that dark weapon to prevent it from being obtained by people who don't deserve it." Dolma answered.
"No! You were fooled! Dooku himself is a Sith Lord! He betrayed the Jedi Order and started a civil war throughout the galaxy!" Anakin asked eagerly.
However, Dolma's heroic spirit seemed very calm, "Maybe, but this is not a completely bad thing. At least it gives you a chance to completely destroy this thing and make this sinful and taboo thing disappear forever."
"What is this?"
"The Dark Reaper, a powerful weapon of the dark side."
Anakin was silent for a moment and said: "Please tell me everything about this weapon. This thing cannot be obtained by the Separatists under any circumstances! Otherwise, the galaxy will be devastated."
Dolma's heroic spirit fell into silence again. After a long time, he slowly said: "The knowledge you are pursuing is very powerful. Young Jedi, you must use it carefully, otherwise, it will drag you into the dark side.
abyss."
"I'm not afraid." Anakin Skywalker was extremely determined.
"No, you should be afraid. I used to think that I had a strong enough will to resist the temptation of the dark side, but I was wrong. I don't want you to take the same path as me." Zhuoma said sincerely.
"This is a test that I must endure. I cannot fail. Because once I fail, countless lives will be lost." Anakin Skywalker said.
…
More than an hour later, Anakin Skywalker walked out of the cave, his eyes seeming to be burning with fire.
The communicator rang, and Obi-Wan Kenobi's angry voice came from inside, "Anakin! What's going on with you!! Didn't I tell you not to act rashly? Why did you launch an attack on the planet Len-Var privately?
Fight back?"
"I saved Len-Var, Master, and maybe I will save more people." Anakin said.
"Is this the reason why you contacted Yuri Orlov privately? I know this man. He is very cunning and dangerous. He was the one who ignited the previous civil war on the planet Seria! You can't have anything to do with him!!
"Obi-Wan Kenobi said loudly.
Anakin's tone suddenly rose, "Are we just waiting for you to find reinforcements so slowly? Do you know what Count Dooku got in Len-Var? The Dark Reaper! The super weapon of the ancient Sith Empire.
!If we don’t stop him as soon as possible, I don’t know how many people will die from this super weapon!”
"This is not the reason for your misbehavior! Anakin. You are blatantly ignoring the creed of the Jedi Order, which will allow you to be tempted by the dark side!" Obi-Wan said sharply.
Anakin took a deep breath, lowered his head and said: "My heart is extremely firm, Master... I will always believe in the light and be unwavering."
Obi-Wan sighed, "Tell me, what exactly did you find?"
"The Dark Reaper is divided into two parts. One is the Force Reaper. This powerful device will directly extract and store the Force from all living things hundreds of kilometers around. The other part is the Dark Reaper...
...It will focus the collected force and launch a force beam that can destroy everything...We must stop Count Dooku!" Anakin said.
"We must inform the Republic of this news." Obi-Wan became serious.
"There is no time to wait for the Republic to react. As far as I know, a coup is breaking out on the planet Christophsis, and most of the Republic's energy is in that direction. But time waits for no one, the Dark Reapers must be destroyed, and we must start now
