Chapter 16: The Past and the Boss

"Do you have something to say?"

Restraining his excited expression, Wang Yonghao knew that this old man's trip was definitely not so simple.

Since the last time they had a heart-to-heart conversation, the old rich man has become much more down-to-earth, and he really no longer tries to ask Wang Yonghao's opinion.

[It's a pit today, and there are so many things that I don't have a clue now, although I've already thought about what to write, and the outline also makes it clear what should be written on this one, well, it's just no state]

[So I have no choice but to take a wave of anti-theft]

Wang Yonghao and the people on the entire Death Star can be regarded as having seen the world, and they have encountered black holes in a short period of time, and everyone has grown up rapidly, and they are themselves experienced in a hundred battles, and now they are not so afraid in the face of this kind of natural disaster that can be said to be desperate.

The Death Star methodically reverses the hyperspace engine thrusters, and the entire Death Star, which had just stopped and was pulled by gravity and crashed into the black hole, started again.

Getting rid of the gravitational pull of the binary black hole is really difficult for this fluttering death star, and it seems that the outer shield makes a rattling sound during the shaking.

In the bridge, Ray Sloan looked at the two black holes in the porthole in front of him, still approaching each other, as silent as water.

Naturally, she was not nervous at all, but she tried her best to maintain the dignity of an admiral in her face.

At this time, all the stations on the Death Star were configured with two officers, one high and one low, so the efficiency was surprisingly good.

But efficiency does not mean that the newly started hyperspace engine thrusters can get rid of gravitational tearing in both directions!

The Death Star is still slowly falling, slowly closing the distance between the two black holes, and this fall is noticeably faster than the two black holes are attracted to each other.

He knew in his heart that as long as he fell faster than the black hole, he would soon face a very serious problem - tearing, and the gravitational pull and spatial curvature distortion from the two black holes would tear them into two lines and fall into the two black holes.

"Commander! Our Death Star escaped gravity longer than the drop threshold thanks to a hyperspace engine! ”

A young lieutenant turned to his feet and shouted a report, and the faces of the crew pit lifted from their workbenches and sensor booths to turn to Acting Commander Ray Sloan.

The commander stood still, staring through the huge observation window on the bridge at the two black holes that were still distorting space and time, distorting everything.

Sloan knew her face was expressionless, and she knew that her black gloves and hands behind her back were motionless—just as she knew that the chrome pistol in her holster was at hand, and that her polished black boots were half a meter underneath her.

Many years ago, aboard the cruiser Disobedience, Headmaster Bello would often raise Sloane's chin with his hand, kick her leg into the right position, and shout to tell her what an officer on the capital ship should be.

At the time, she was just a rookie lieutenant after graduating from flight school, and the idea that an officer's stance would work would definitely amuse her.

But now, she understood its usefulness.

Fear is a contagion that can be passed from senior officers all the way to junior officers.

If the bridge crew sees the captain worried, they themselves are more likely to make mistakes, which can lead to casualties.

Bello had taught her not to rush into something or raise her voice lightly unless it was absolutely necessary. Let your rank do the work, he said so.

Sloane turned his head and looked over the crew pit to the nervous young lieutenant, constantly shifting his weight between his legs. What would Bello think in this situation?

The older headmaster was long dead, thrown from the ship where he had died, along with a pile of garbage, and he was now just a dried corpse floating in the universe.

He is a product of another era, another war. But what he taught her is applicable to this era, to this war.

"Order all of the Death Star's reactors to ignite and launch a super laser attack at the black hole," Sloan said to the bridge owner.

"Inform the turbolaser cannon operator of the intent to carry out the shelling and rely on the external force field of the bombardment stroke to resist the collapse gravity."

"Yes, Commander."

The lieutenant said, and sat down immediately. The faces in the crew pit redirected to their screens.

Sloane looked around the crew pit, looking for signs of uneasiness or anxiety. She didn't find anything - all the bridge crews had been ordered to work in an orderly manner.

"See?"

Wang Yonghao took a sip of the black tea, as if the trembling Death Star was not enough to shake the liquid surface of the black tea in his hand.

"See, no wonder the teacher recruited her to be an agent, it is indeed unique."

Chiru Inwei was still blind and unfocused, smiling as he held the teacup in his hands and felt the temperature of the tea through the ceramic cup.

Wang Yonghao felt the tremor of the full fire from the Death Star itself, and listened to the "tweet" that could not be heard in the vacuum of the universe but was naturally imagined in his heart!

An eight-in-a-one thick blue laser shot towards the nodes where the gravitational divergence of the two black holes diverged, causing the entire Death Star to form a gravitational balance out of thin air and stop trembling.

"Yay!"

"It worked, the commander is too powerful!"

The bridge personnel were boiling, and both the captain cadets of the general rank and the operators of the lieutenant rank fell into ecstasy.

They didn't expect that the super laser cannon with no gravitational intervention ability after being excited under normal gravity would really give them a chance to get out of it.

"Boost the power of the hyperspace engine!"

Ray Sloan's voice remained the same, and his face was as calm as water.

The Death Star, which had strengthened its propulsion and was in a relatively normal gravitational environment, had finally completed hyperspace and accelerated away from the galaxy that had given birth to two generations of Skywalkers.

It wasn't until the ship entered hyperspace and everything was smooth out that Ray Sloan asked about the next destination, an important area known only to the Empire's military hierarchy.

All the officers had reason to believe that that place would never be detonated by the Empire.

And when they get there, they will personally detonate that place, counting as revenge against the Empire.

That's Jaku!

A desert planet located in the outer ring similar to the planet Tatooine.

This inconspicuous planet was only discovered when Wang Yonghao watched the movie, that is, the home planet of the heroine in "Star Wars: The Force Awakens".

The reason why this is important is that it contains one of the more important conspiracy of the Emperor Palpatine, which is known only to a few high-ranking members of the Imperial military.

For example, Lei Sloan, who once followed Governor Tarkin, and even more like the number two person in Wang Yonghao's First Order, Prime Minister Hurst Romody.

As Lord of the Sith, Darth Sidious, Schiff Palpatine began to secretly build a facility called an "observatory" on some planets on the edge of known space long before the empire was founded.

Observatories almost always have robust concealment measures and defenses to prevent detection and intrusion from outsiders.

The Observatory serves as a laboratory, with some storing Sith artifacts, others storing weapon blueprints or the weapons themselves, each with a different purpose.

And each observatory is equipped with a yacht known as the "Emperor", which is used to transport secret cargo or personnel.

The remote planet Jaku is home to one of these observatories, except that this observatory has a different mission.

Jaku used to be a living world with dense forests and vast oceans, but somehow, became a barren land covered in desert.

The Galactic Empire was born at about the same time as the Jaku Observatory, and Palpatine had a "contingency" facility on Jaku, which in Palpatine's view was a double insurance step.

Palpatine thinks the whole galaxy is like a game of chess. "Radical King Chess" is an ancient game in which the chess pieces in the hands of both sides have different moves and functions, but the ultimate goal is to capture the opponent's "commander" pieces while protecting the "commander" of the own side.

As soon as the "commander" dies, he loses all the games, and the other chess pieces have no meaning in existence. Palpatine sees himself as a "commander-in-chief", and if he dies, he will drag the entire empire to be buried with him.

The so-called "contingency measures" are to destroy the entire Galactic Empire in the event of the death of Emperor Palpatine, and the Jaku Observatory is one of the important components of the "contingency measures".

In the center of the observatory is a shaft that leads to the center of Jaku, a deep well controlled by the observatory's ancient computer that detonates the center of Jaku through a series of chain reactions, destroying the entire planet and everything in its orbit.

On the Death Star, it is believed that the Empire is attacking them with regular weapons, and the Imperial generals do not believe that after the sudden death of Emperor Palpatine, the Imperial military will drag the entire galaxy to the funeral.

They have reason to believe that as long as they go to Jaku, they will definitely bring the empire back to the negotiating table, this is the undoubted truth.

It's a pity that all these attacks were not done by the top echelons of the empire, even if they were crazy, they wouldn't be in a hurry to kill Wang Yonghao in this way.

Obi-Wan Kenobi, a bystander, would not believe that this was the work of the Empire, and that these generals from the Imperial military believed that this was the style of the Imperial military.

And in addition to the burial of the Empire, the Jaku Observatory also has another function - to find a paraspace shipping route through unknown space.

Palpatine believes that there is some origin of the dark side of the Force in an unknown dimension.

This dark presence is signaling to him.

And this signal was only felt by him, not even by Darth Vader.

Therefore, Palpatine had to find the source of this signal.

With the help of probe robots and Thrawn's knowledge of the unknown, the ancient computer at the Jaku Observatory works day and night to calculate the course to explore the unknown.

This is also a very important point for the upper echelons of the empire, that is, it is not to find the so-called dark origin, which is also a very important exploration of the unknown space.

Therefore, the people on the Death Star are very confident in going to Jaku, and Wang Yonghao also feels that the Great World Consciousness will no longer kill Wang Yonghao at the cost of detonating the entire Galactic Empire.

This is also a means for Wang Yonghao to pull the world's great consciousness back to the negotiating table, otherwise Wang Yonghao would not have broken the course that was originally close to the Central and the core area to move towards the outer ring after the last time he met the red giant.

He was going to find these important military units, especially after discovering that the world didn't care about detonating a galaxy in search of an opportunity to destroy Wang Yonghao.

He doesn't believe it, does it mean that you don't care about destroying a galaxy and your world consciousness?

Wang Yonghao knew in his heart that the great consciousness of this world had been paying attention to him, and in a sense, the great consciousness of this world was the force that these Siths and Jedi believed in.

He's everywhere, he's extremely capable!

Wang Yonghao estimated that if it weren't for the Great Consciousness of the World and knowing that controlling Obiwang, Lux, Gaqinga, and Qilu would not be able to kill Wang Yonghao, I am afraid that he would have controlled these warriors who believed in him to attack Wang Yonghao.

It's like controlling those Siths before, looking for an opportunity to kill Wang Yonghao like a retarded mind.

Now Wang Yonghao can only bet that this Jaku planet is useful and can pose a threat to the world's great consciousness.

After all, if this kind of explosive package that can link the entire Galactic Empire to an unknown number of planets is opened, it will not only be a matter of detonating a desert galaxy to attack Wang Yonghao.

This is also a point where Wang Yonghao wants to have a mentality with the world's great consciousness, he wants to force the world's great consciousness to make concessions, of course, it is still unknown whether he can succeed.

Chancellor Hurst Romody and Executive Ray Sloan are ready to destroy the entire planet and the death star in its orbit in the event that the Empire will not hesitate to detonate the Jaku Geocentric.

Of course, at the same time, there are also an unknown number of planets with linkage detonation devices, and even Gary, who is responsible for carrying out this plan, does not know how many linkage bombs there are.

Because according to Palpatine's will, during the implementation of the "emergency measures", the head of this testing station, Gary, will try to get the empire and the rebels to fight a decisive battle in Jakku, and then use the ancient computer in the Jaku observatory to detonate Jakku, so that the empire and the rebels will die together.

But this level of the Death Star that can be solved with a single shelling can be said to be the emperor's "emergency measures"?

Therefore, there must be an unknown number of planets that have been installed with linkage facilities, and if Gary detonates according to the order, it will definitely not be a matter of destroying Jakku.

Now, they were right!

The gray-white paint on the outside of the Death Star that came out of hyperspace has almost all fallen off, revealing a cold-colored metal panel, and the quaint appearance gives Wang Yonghao a relatively real feeling, and it is not as gloomy as before.

The Death Star slowed down and entered Jakku's orbit, anchoring steadily in the quiet galaxy.

Yes, it's too quiet!

Inquiries came from all over the galaxy about the base stations of the signal towers on the planet Jakku: "Excuse me, excuse me, what do you mean by ......?"

Ray Sloan replied directly: "Talk back to Gary, replenish energy and supplies for the Death Star, and don't worry about it without you!" ”

The radio suddenly became silent for a long time before a middle-aged man on the other side replied, "I'm Gary, Admiral Ray Sloan transferred you to the Death Star?" ”

Don't look at Gali's low rank, but to some extent, this is a middle-aged officer who is an ordinary garrison officer, and he is also one of the absolute henchmen of the emperor.

[I'm sorry, but I'll find my form as soon as possible tomorrow!] 】
