Turning back the time to one day ago, the world of wealth - Cato Neimoidia was still peaceful.
More than 100 warships of the 7th Squadron of the 2nd Army of the Republic, led by three 8,000-meter-long Commander-class dreadnoughts, are surrounding the planet.
The planet Cato-Neimoidia is also well prepared, with a powerful orbital defense system activated and a planetary shield activated, and this is an extremely expensive two-way shield!
As we all know, two-way shields can protect oneself while constantly firing and attacking. Warships that can be equipped with two-way shields are often used as flagships. In Cato Neimoidia, the entire planetary shield is actually used
Two-way shield!
In the outer orbit, the powerful fleet of the Trade Federation is also waiting. The powerful lineup of 30 Generosity-class communication frigates, 5 Divination-class destroyers, and 10 Rookery-class battleships, including a large number of small battleships, allows the 7th Squadron to
Don't dare to act rashly.
Even though the Galactic Republic and the Confederation of Independent Systems are fighting fiercely in the outer star region and even the central star region, the wealth world planet in the core circle is still peaceful, even if the fleet assembled here has exceeded most of the battlefields.
Now on the planet Cato-Neimoidia, the 100,000 super-rich people have already evacuated, and all those left on the planet are armies to protect their property. There are more than 2 million robots!
Although these super-rich people are not on the planet, they still want to preserve their wealth through various channels and means, and they are always paying attention to the situation in Cato-Neimoidia.
The Governor of the Trade Federation, Newt Gunray, is naturally one of them.
But at this moment, he was looking at a man in a black cloak shivering in front of him...
The second Sith Lord in this galaxy - the Death Angel.
After the last time the Angel of Death chopped Pruul Barron into two pieces in front of him, Newt Gunray went home and had nightmares for several days. Until now, he has to be protected by the robot army.
Only then did I dare to fall asleep.
Moreover, he only dared to stay in the fleet and did not even dare to set foot on the ground of the planet.
Although he doesn't understand the way of the Force at all, in his opinion, the Sith Lord who calls himself the Dead Angel is no less powerful than Darth Sidious, and is even more terrifying than Darth Sidious.
For Sri Lanka, it is definitely better than anything else!
But escaping doesn't solve everything. The deceased angel still found him.
He drove a red fighter jet and broke directly into his escort fleet, without even sending an identification code for friend or foe. He just walked through it with countless anti-aircraft firepower, and then rushed to Newt Gunray's flagship.
He hovered quietly outside the bridge window before sending the friend-or-foe identification code.
The fighter jet transformed into an eight-meter-tall robot, standing outside the bridge window and knocking on the glass.
Naturally, it was impossible to make any sound, but this action still hit Newt Gunray's heart like a heavy hammer, and he finally managed not to pee his pants.
Arriving at the bridge, Darth Malthael did not speak, he just stood there and looked at Newt Gunray quietly.
It was also Newt Gunray's first face-to-face contact with a Sith Lord. This may not be accurate because he had met Hego Damask II and Tang Xiao himself many times before.
It should be said that for the first time, he faced a Sith Lord who fully displayed his extremely powerful dark side force!
"Lord Death Angel...please...please ask me why you came to me..." Newt Gunray asked in a trembling voice.
He was not too unbearable. He hurriedly put one hand behind his back to make a gesture, and his adjutant quickly called a etiquette robot to offer Darth Malthael a glass of expensive wine.
Darth Malthael was not polite. He took the glass of wine, walked directly to Newt Gunray's seat, and took a sip.
Seeing him make this move, Newt Gunlay breathed a long sigh of relief. Having been in the business world for a long time, he naturally understood that the other party was not here to kill him.
As long as you can survive, you can donate any amount of money.
Newt Gunray secretly made up his mind. As for whether he felt bad about giving out the money, he no longer cared about it. The worst he could do was raise taxes by a few points in the several industrial worlds in his hands.
"I have a battle plan that I want to talk to you about." Darth Malthael finally spoke.
"Cato Neimoidia." Darth Malthael said a place name.
Newt Gunray was shaken all of a sudden. He lost his grip on the wine glass in his hand and dropped it. However, the wine glass and the spilled wine miraculously hovered in the air, and then reappeared under an invisible force.
Returning to his hand, the wine also formed a stream of water and fell into the cup.
But the panic in Newt Gunray's heart grew bigger and bigger.
Cato-Neimoidia! He is actually plotting against Cato-Neimoidia! That is my root! My trillions of assets are there!! No, absolutely not!
Newt Gunray thought in his mind, his eyes a little red.
But Darth Malthael did not make any demands there, but made an unexpected proposal, "I will raid Cato Neimoidia and destroy the Republic fleet on the periphery of the planet..."
"
Newt Gunray was shocked, "What are you talking about? How is this possible?! Deep in the core circle of the Milky Way on the planet Cato-Neimoidia, and not far away is the Second Army of the Republic! How could we be there?
Where can we defeat the Republic’s fleet?”
"I said it can be done, and of course I have my reasons." Darth Malthael said lightly, "Of course, the premise is that you must cooperate with me."
Newt Gunray's face became solemn. After a while, he raised his head and said very cautiously: "Lord Death Angel... Actually, I think it is better to maintain the status quo on Cato Neimoidia.
…”
"Are you worried that your property will be damaged?" Darth Malthael said, the corners of his mouth slightly raised under the hood, revealing a sarcastic smile, "No, that's not the case. What you are worried about is
, once the battle plan on the planet Cato-Neimoidia succeeds, the Trade Federation may really offend the Galactic Republic and lose its position of hedging its bets, right?”
Newt Gunray's expression was a little complicated. He hesitated for a while, then lowered his head and said, "That's true... The Trade Federation still has a large number of industries in the inner and core circles of the galaxy. These businesses cannot be affected."
Darth Malthael sneered, "Then...how about using your shutdown password to shut down all the combat robots?"
