Chapter 522: The Executor

Qiao Lu piloted the flying mecha back to the Ark, and didn't care about anything else, so he immediately went straight to the bridge with the Death Star blueprint, and he had to send this information back to the Wandering Earth first to ensure that nothing went wrong.

The staff of the Intelligence Section had been waiting on the bridge for a long time, and after receiving the hard drive containing the Death Star blueprint from Qiao Lu's hand, they immediately began to get busy.

After seeing the data transferred from the hard drive to the Ark's database, Qiao Lu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Welcome back, Jolu." Zhang Zhezhong greeted him and said, "It's really hard for you." ”

Qiao Lu said: "It's not over yet." Make a copy of the document and send it to the Rebel Alliance, and tell them to evacuate quickly! ”

After all, the fleet of the Rebel Alliance also rushed out to support, and their casualties were even more tragic than those of the Wandering Earth Expeditionary Force, so they couldn't be allowed to return empty-handed.

At the same time, it is also a signal to tell them to evacuate, the Death Star has appeared in the orbit of Scariv, and if they continue to fight, they will be wiped out!

"Roger."

The staff in charge of processing the information immediately sent the Death Star blueprints to the Raldos, the flagship of the Rebel Alliance, and told them to evacuate from Scarif as soon as possible.

Upon receiving the information, the communicators aboard the Radus were ecstatic to report to their captain, Admiral Radus:

"General, we've got the blueprints for the Death Star!"

"They succeeded!" Radus said excitedly.

But then they learned the bad news that the Death Star had come to Scarif orbit and appeared in front of everyone like a gray sun slowly rising over the horizon.

This is truly a huge combat space station, and even the Ark seems so small in the face of its massive size of 160 kilometers in diameter, and the resources it consumes are indeed something that only a galactic empire spanning multiple galaxies can afford.

This is the true symbol of the Empire's power, the ultimate weapon to destroy an entire planet!

In addition to the Super Laser, which is the main gun, the Death Star is also dotted with thousands of armed artillery batteries, with a total of 15,000 turbolaser guns and 768 towing beams, allowing it to destroy a planet with ease, as well as large warships.

At this time, the Ark alone has no chance of winning against the Death Star, even if you have already obtained the design plan of the Death Star, you must first go back to study and analyze, and reformulate your strategy to find the weakness of the Death Star.

Rushing up now is probably hitting a stone with an egg, and even if you can get lucky enough to dodge a super laser cannon, I'm afraid you won't be able to survive the second shot.

The orbital airborne force of the Wandering Earth Expeditionary Force followed Jolu and gradually returned to the Ark, and staying on Scarif was a dead end. Unsurprisingly, the first thing the Death Star had to do was destroy the corpses and prevent Scarif's database from leaking more information about the Empire.

Wilkhoff Tarkin, the high-ranking Governor of the Star Sector on the Death Star, decisively ordered: "Aim at the Scarif base, and ignite the single reactor." ”

"Sir, what about the enemy's fleet?" His lieutenant asked.

"Lord Vader will deal with them."

In fact, the move was also intended to eliminate his rival, Orson Krennick, the design director of the Death Star, who Scarif had intelligence suggesting that Orson was still alive and well, and that he might just be buried under the ruins of the Towerburgh.

Targin wants him to die completely, lest anyone else compete with him for command of the Death Star in the future.

With this selfishness, the Death Star's super laser cannon was aimed directly at Scarif, firing a terrifying beam of devastating light.

I saw a green light streak through Scarif's atmosphere and into the sea near Fort Scarifta.

From the orbit of the planet, you can see that a small white dot appeared on the sea surface where it was hit, and the white dot immediately spread into a white circle, and the circle quickly expanded on the sea surface.

It was a huge wave thousands of meters high, splashing the water like a boulder into a small puddle, and then a dazzling fireball rose up, and the entire sea seemed to be boiled, and the temperature in the center was unimaginable.

It was only a single-reactor ignition, so it wasn't powerful enough to destroy the entire planet, but it was enough to wipe Scarif off the map entirely, and no one would survive such an attack.

Qiao Lu felt lucky, if this super laser cannon hit the Ark, I am afraid that the entire starship would have been reduced to ashes, and the power of the Death Star was really terrifying.

Thankfully, Tarkin's selfishness overshadowed his loyalty, and he made the choice that was best for him, but not in the best interests of the empire.

Anyway, for him, the theft of the Death Star blueprint was Orson's responsibility, and now he has personally sanctioned it.

As for the pursuit of the rebel fleet in front of you, and Darth Vader's Executor is in charge, the Death Star is not designed for chase battles, only in terms of mobility, you can't expect the Death Star to be fast, after all, its size is here.

In any case, Targin himself is always invincible, and even if he can't catch up with the rebels, he should find Darth Vader to hold him accountable, and maybe he can take this opportunity to gain a higher status than Darth Vader.

It was this scheming that allowed Targin to climb higher positions in the empire, but he would not have imagined that it was this scheming that would eventually bury him.

After witnessing the power of the Death Star's main cannon, both the Wandering Earth Expeditionary Force and the fleet of the Rebel Alliance immediately cut off the idea of fighting it and hurriedly prepared to evacuate from above Scarif's orbit.

However, at this moment, another symbol of the Empire's military power, the Executor Super Star Destroyer, also rushed to the Scarif battlefield.

This super Star Destroyer is more than ten times larger than the size of the Imperial-class Star Destroyer, reaching an astonishing 19 kilometers, in addition to inheriting the Star Destroyer's consistent dagger-shaped hull design, it is different from ordinary Star Destroyers in all aspects.

The smooth hull is arrow-shaped, with a city-like island in the center of the hull, weapons and gun emplacements densely distributed on its multi-story city-like surface, and a trapezoidal conning tower towering over the tail of the island.

Thirteen giant engine thrusters emitted a blood-red glow, propelling the giant warship that was even larger than the Zerg Leviathan in the vast expanse of space.

This is the Empire's real high-level starship, and it is not much better than the Ark in terms of momentum.

What's more, it is none other than Darth Vader, the most famous villain of Star Wars, who commands this super Star Destroyer, wearing black metal armor in the command room of the Executor.

This is another reason why Targin is so confident that he doesn't need to use the Death Star to intercept the rebel fleet, and when Darth Vader arrives in the Executor, there is no need to worry about anything.
