As mentioned earlier, both Shen Chao and the other members of the expedition were very satisfied with Vader's ability and influence, but most of them did not think that it was a reliable choice to press the treasure on this Sith Venerable, and it was largely because of the elusive so-called superior mentality of the other party.

The so-called superior mentality is a very unhealthy state of mind, just like the operation of any industry, the effective operation of a government and economic organization also depends on an effective division of labor and reasonable planning and arrangement.

Depending on their abilities, people are assigned to different positions and work together to run the organization. Ideally, this division of labor should only have different powers and responsibilities, and there should be no comparison of high and low social status.

Because only when there is no need to consider the worries of the future, can people give full play to the power of the group and improve everyone's living conditions. But no one lives in an ideal world, and the reality is that people are not only treated differently in the division of labor, but also have a huge gap in personal ability and social status.

Vader has long been at the top of the power of the Galactic Empire because of his superb military value, and in this group of bureaucrats, he has learned to look at others with a condescending mentality, and the reason why Shen Chao chose to start their negotiations with his fists is to dispel this unconscious arrogance, otherwise there is no way for the two sides to start the discussion on the same basis.

In the related spin-offs of the Star Wars series, Vader, as a pillar of the empire, has done a lot of controversial and even dehumanizing things. Although he sacrificed himself for his son at the end of the story and returned to the bright side, that act killed him almost immediately.

No one can predict exactly what Vader will look like when he returns to the Bright Side, and if he becomes a traditional Jedi, then it would be better for the expedition team not to return to the Bright Side. At least the Sith know how to adapt to their environment, and the Jedi seem like a pile of stubborn rocks clinging to dogma, never wanting to forge ahead. It's just unreasonable.

So. Before that, almost no one was optimistic about the alliance with Vida. In order to accurately predict Vader's psychological state and accurately assess the possibility of forming an alliance with him, Shen Chao used some unconventional means and used some talents that the expedition team usually disdained to use.

And among these people, there is an inconspicuous small character who gives a crucial opinion. This person was in another corner of the space station at this time. Guarded by several guards, he stared closely at the large screen in front of him.

The screen was playing a real-time image in the makeshift conference room, and when Shen Chao used the advice he gave to persuade the tall man in black, the seemingly ordinary middle-aged man stretched out in his chair and smiled knowingly.

Back to the present, after successfully inducing the good thoughts in Vader's heart, Shen Chao did not relax, but stepped up to lay a solid foundation for this hard-won. Otherwise, it wouldn't be long before he could turn back into the angry Sith Lord.

Human emotions and intellect are not water without a source, they all need external stimuli to maintain their existence. Like other ordinary people who are driven by emotions, Vader also needs to be stimulated by positive emotions to maintain his mental state. There is nothing more positive for him than seeing his beloved wife again.

Shen Chao arranged for Vader and Padme to meet in this way. Of course. This meeting is one-way. Vader watched Padmé's figure in the artificial garden from a distance through the one-way turbine glass, and it didn't take long for him to leave here and continue his negotiations with Shen Chao.

After meeting Padmé, Vader was visibly much more relaxed, like a big rock falling to the ground. After this, he and Shen Chao quickly agreed on a series of issues, and in a brief discussion, they talked about Vader's comprehensive restoration plan and the future of the Star Wars plane.

The most important of these is the latter part, and Vader certainly wouldn't be as naïve as his son was at the beginning to think that the expedition would be doing to help them with such a big twist and turn for the rebuilding of the Galactic Republic.

He knows it. There is a price to be paid to achieve anything. The expedition team made such a great effort to reunite their families and provide advanced medical care to help their father and son heal all their old wounds. And these "services" will definitely not be free.

It was clear that they both had something that the other desperately needed. The expedition was able to heal all his internal and external wounds, so that he could regain the full state of his youth. But at the same time, they must need to do something on their own that they can't do.

And in this regard, Vida already has his own conjecture. Sure enough, after talking about the superficial issues. Shen Chao quickly brought the topic to the power structure of the empire. And bluntly mentioned the feasibility of overthrowing the emperor.

It can be seen that Shen Chao is not disgusted with the existence of the empire at all. His only grievances seem to lie only in the choice of the emperor. "What do you mean?" Vader asked with a low voice and a frown. He had already guessed what Shen Chao would say, but he could only confirm his conjecture like this.

"That's right, I want you to sit on that throne. Shen Chao said bluntly without turning around. If it had been a day earlier, Vader had known that there was an organization like the expedition that supported him to claim the throne. He's afraid he'll jump for joy.

But after hearing the news at this time, Vader was only silent for a while. And the brow seems to be furrowed even tighter. It's not that he's let go of his desire for power, it's that he doesn't want to mess up his family reunion.

The reason for this is because he always puts his small family above Yiqiē, he fell into the dark side for his family, he became Darth Vader for his family, and in the end he fought with the emperor for his own family.

Nothing could shake the status of the concept of "home" in his heart, and one of the main reasons that separated him from Padmé was his ambition to become emperor. If it weren't for this, Padmé probably wouldn't have left.

With this lesson in mind, he is now completely sure that his wife has been resurrected. Then the Emperor's throne has lost its appeal to him, and he would rather give up any title, even the Force, just to reunite with Padmé.

In such a situation, Shen Chao's request was not a grand gift but a great burden. As if seeing Vader's reluctance, Shen Chao quickly began to explain the reason why he pushed him to the top.

He carefully recounted to Vader the events that would take place in the galaxy in the next 20 to 30 years, including the perennial tug-of-war between the New Republic and the Empire, and the subsequent full-scale invasion of the Maniacs. And summarized the final casualties.

"Do you know the future of a qiē? What else do you want me to do......" Vader asked self-deprecatingly, with a deep sense of powerlessness in her tone. It's not that he was frightened by the results of the subsequent years of war, but because the year-round war left him with too many painful memories.

Decades have passed since the Clone Wars, but he has not escaped the shroud of war. After defeating the separatists, they hunted down the Jedi Order, and finally killed the old Jedi Order, and had to deal with the new rebels.

The reason why he worked hard to suppress the rebel forces in the empire was to show his loyalty and strength to the emperor. On the other hand, I really hope that I can end the war with war and end the years of war in the galaxy. But after learning that the future galaxy would have to fight for decades, he felt the ridiculousness of fate.

"No, you misunderstood. I'm not sure everything that will happen in the future, and I can't predict your choices right now. However, many things are qualitative changes caused by quantitative changes, and the trend of fighting is unstoppable. ”

Shen Chao's words were recognized by Vinda, and over the years, he has also reflected on his actions many times. If he hadn't betrayed the Jedi Order back then, if he had killed the Emperor at that time. If that happens, will the galaxy be at peace and stability?

The answer is a disappointing no, although what he did back then became the last straw that pressed the survival of the Galactic Republic, but even if he didn't do it, the fall of the Republic was only a matter of time.

The decaying Jedi Order is becoming weaker and weaker under the constraints of dogma, unable to maintain the stability of the galaxy. However, the policy of decentralization for many years has led to a huge gap in the economic and social development of the whole galaxy, with a huge gap between the rich and the poor, and more and more trade disputes between galaxies.

War can only be used to resolve such profound social contradictions. Only a centralized government organization like the Empire has the ability to end the war and restore peace. And the funniest thing about this whole process is that I keep struggling like this. An individual who fights against fate.

"I don't see any better results for putting me in that position, I just want to reorganize my family. Vinda still wanted to shirk Shen Chao's request.

"I understand that you just want to make your wishes come true. The Emperor's throne must seem more like a burden or a trap to you. The emperor is not a weak chicken, there is a certain risk in overthrowing him, and even if you succeed, you will have to bear all kinds of infamy, and you don't know if your wife and children will approve of your approach. ”

But rejecting the throne is not necessarily the right choice. Unless you are willing to leave your mother plane as a whole, lose the ability to use the Force forever, and leave your homeland forever, you will still have to face it when the war madman arrives. It doesn't matter if you're the top nobles of the pyramid of power or the most ordinary galactic citizens. Shen Chao reminded Vader of the tragedy of the future, but he could see it. The other party was not immediately moved.

"I know it's a big decision, and you need to discuss it with your family before you make a decision. It's okay, I can wait. After Shen Chao finished speaking, he left a number of jù reservoirs, and then left here, leaving Vader alone to wait for the medical team to return and continue his treatment.

PS: First of all, thank you for the monthly pass support of "~~~~の Engine Oil, Kaos Fargo, Future Uncle, Moonlight and Shadow, pandaboy, Appreciated Copper Coins, Two Pounds of Meat, and Xuanhu NO1". Earlier tonight, Black Cat was watching a video for the Metal Gear Solid: Phantom Pain. A long time ago, there was a book friend who built yì Black Cat to add the plot of Metal Gear Gear to this book, but because Black Cat himself has never played and does not understand the Metal Gear series, it can't be realized.

Now, after seeing the plot of this game unfold, Black Cat is very inspired, and is ready to make up for the relevant background of the series in the next few days, and is expected to add the relevant plot in the next book.
