Chapter 544: Back to the Surface
For the rest of the day, Obi-Wan teaches Luke how to use the Force, but Jolu is looking through various materials to find out more about Fibroplasma.
Although I know that the ground is already a mess, at least I can live underground, I can still breathe with air filtration, and I can barely survive with stored food.
During this time, K-2SO and C-3PO can be said to smell like each other, and their models are very similar, and they are also chatterboxing robots.
When the two met, it was like Mars hitting the earth, and the others watched them noisy all day long, which can be regarded as a little enlivening the oppressive atmosphere here.
R2-D2 is working diligently every day, as a mechanic robot, responsible for repairing the entire knowledge base, from the ceiling paint to the magma seepage outside, it is all solved by it, which can be said to be extremely dedicated.
However, the biggest change is still the 2B who followed Qiao Lu.
2B, as a combat robot of the Jiye Army, has nothing to do during this time, and there are no enemies to be wary of here.
She had been either fighting or waiting for her next attack, and suddenly being trapped in this safe place really didn't know what to do.
Luke's aunt Belle took the initiative to find her, as well as Jean Ersor from Rogue One, and asked them:
"Excuse me, can I ask you to help with the ingredients?"
As a traditional woman on the planet Tatooine who runs a wet farm with her husband, Belw takes care of the family's food and daily life on a daily basis.
After hiding in the Jedi knowledge base, she is in charge of the distribution and handling of food, and occasionally needs someone to help.
Of course, she wouldn't ask for vicious men, like the Mandalorian, Captain Andor, Baez, and Genji, who didn't look easy to mess with.
Belle wouldn't bother Luke and Obi-Wan with their training, while Jolu and Chiru were busy with their own business. In addition to her husband, all she can ask for is Qin and 2B, who are also women.
Jean agreed to Belle's request, and 2B was a little hesitant, she was able to eat and digest, and even had a taste recognition function, but she never cared about food, and she didn't know if she could do it well.
By the way, she can't eat fish yet, as it reacts with artificial blood. However, there are no fish on the desert planet of Tatooine, so there is no need to worry about this.
"It's okay, it's easy." Belle persuaded 2B, "It never hurts for a girl to learn a little more cooking, as the saying goes, you have to catch a man's stomach first, and I often ask Luke to learn to cook by himself." ”
During this time, 2B began to learn how to cook from Belle.
It was a strange experience for her, 2B was good at using almost all cold weapons, but it was the first time she picked up a kitchen knife and clumsily learned to prepare a table of dinner from scratch.
Qiao Lu was also surprised by this, because he didn't think that the heroic 2B, who had always been active on the battlefield, would put on an apron and walk down the kitchen, which gave him a very fresh feeling, which was also a different kind of fun.
In this way, although the underground life is a bit boring, it is not too much of a problem.
Until one day, Obi-Wan and Qiao Lu both felt at the same time that there was a slight movement on the ground, not the loud sound of the Imperial fleet bombing again, but more like the vibration of the Imperial walking machine.
Because their senses are extremely sharp, they can detect such a subtle change, but since they can sense the presence of someone on the ground deep underground, it means that the other party is already very close to here, and it is impossible to be separated by a hundred and eight thousand miles.
"Looks like they're finally taking it anymore." Qiao Lu looked up and said.
There is no doubt that this was a landing force sent by the Imperial fleet to investigate the vicinity of Lars' Wet Farm, and it may have been a mistake to search all the way here.
If you don't move, the probability of being discovered should still be relatively low.
But Qiao Lu couldn't take this risk, once he was unknowing, he was discovered by the Imperial Army that there was still a Jedi knowledge base here, and what was waiting for them was the concentrated fire of the main guns of countless Imperial Star Destroyers.
Not to mention hiding underground, even the crust of the entire planet will be pierced by a salvo of main guns.
"I'll go up and have a look." Qiao Lu volunteered.
He also possesses the optical camouflage of symbiote armor and the ability to hide his tracks with psionic energy like a ghost agent. It should be the most difficult to find out of the crowd, and it is a matter of course to take on this task.
"I'll go with you."
Obi-Wan, who was also aware of the presence of Imperial troops on the ground, said Obi-Wan, who put on his old cloak and pinned his lightsaber, and his old face glowed with a hint of youth.
"The Force will protect me from detection, and unless there are people with a fairly high Force cultivation, they will not detect my whereabouts."
After years of living in seclusion, Obi-Wan became a Master Assassin and knew a thing or two about how to hide himself.
At the same time, he can also control the minds of others, and even if he is discovered, there is still a certain chance that he can get past it. Of course, the premise is that the opponent is not strong-willed and will not use the Force.
"Well, don't get noticed."
Obi-Wan was more familiar with the planet Tatooine than Jory, and since he was a reliable Master of the Force, Jolu agreed to go with him to the surface.
The heavy stone door was slowly lifted by the Force, and Jorry and Obi-Wan stepped out of the closed Jedi repository and returned to the surface of the planet Tatooine.
At this time, after the baptism of indiscriminate orbital bombing of the Doomsday Judgment, the surface environment of the entire planet has been completely changed.
Scarlet dust and gravel were everywhere, and the oxygen content of the air was greatly reduced. Thick clouds piled up over the entire planet, as if the sun could no longer be seen.
Dust fell from the sky along with a violent storm and rain, and the corrosive acid rain was falling, and it was completely impossible to nourish this barren land.
The magma flowing everywhere cools and solidifies into pitch-black basalt, and there are still rivers formed by magma on it, and I don't know when it will stop.
The entire surface of the planet has become a hellish place of death, and it is conceivable that there will be no vegetation for at least decades or even centuries.
Even if life reappears, it will begin to revive with bacteria and algae, as if it had returned to the beginning of life, and it took hundreds of millions of years of evolution to return to its previous appearance.
If it weren't for the timely refuge in the Jedi Knowledge Base, I'm afraid that neither Qiao Lu nor Obi-Wan would have survived this catastrophe.
Compared to such a world-destroying force, their personal strength still seems too small!
