Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

Chapter 377: The Last Thing (Part 2)

"I have decided to withdraw from the Jedi Order, Your Excellency the Supreme Chancellor." In the Supreme Chancellor's Office, Count Dooku said to Palpatine solemnly.

"Yes, I have also heard that you have inherited the title of Count of Serenno. Due to busy schedules, I haven't had time to send you my sincere blessings." Palpatine said with a smile.

Count Dooku shook his head, "There is nothing to congratulate, I have completely despaired of the Jedi Order. With their existence, the Republic has no future!"

"Unfortunately, my friend. We once swore to save the Republic together, and now I am finally in a position to reform the Republic, but you have left me." Palpatine sighed, "I respect you I regret what happened to my apprentice Qui-Gon Jinn. The Sith... I didn't expect them to come back from the ashes."

"Sith..." Count Dooku's tone was a bit strange, "Do you think Qui-Gon Jinn's death was caused by the Sith?"

"It is said that a Sith Lord named Darth Maul killed him, didn't he?" Palpatine asked back.

"The confrontation between Sith and Jedi Knights has existed since ancient times, but it was the stubborn, ignorant and stupid Jedi Knights who really killed Qui-Gon Jinn!" Count Dooku said through gritted teeth, taking a deep breath, "I'm here to say goodbye to you, my friend. I will return to Planet Serenno to complete the succession ceremony, and after that, there may be other things to arrange. I will not give up my original vow! Save the Republic, It doesn't necessarily need to be on Coruscant."

"Then, I am waiting for your good news," Palpatine said with a smile.

...

Count Dooku, who returned to Planet Serenno, soon received a communication from an unexpected person. He frowned, connected to the communication, looked at the Neimoidians in the holographic projection, and asked slowly: "I don't know the Viceroy of Trade Federation, what's your business with me?"

The person who sent the communication was the Viceroy of the Trade Federation, Nute Gunray. He has completely lost his sense of proportion now, and he didn't know what to do. He contacted all the people he could contact.

Noticing Count Dooku's cold application, he hesitated for a while before saying, "You are the only Jedi I know..."

"It's not anymore." Count Dooku interrupted him and said coldly.

"Okay, okay..." Nute Gunray wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, "What I want to tell you is...the Sith have appeared. Yes, that's right, those Sith from the former Sith Empire Lord."

"I know that Darth Maul has been killed on Planet Naboo." Count Dooku was a little impatient.

"No, I'm talking about another...Darth Sidious..."

"Darth Sidious?" Count Dooku frowned. This strange Sith title made him feel a little ominous.

"That's right...he planned all of this! Darth Maul is his Apprentice, that's just a sharp blade that can be thrown away at any time!" Nute Gunray told him everything he knew, and he told Count Dooku also has a stronger and more cunning Sith Lord, and this person also has a strong influence in the political arena of the Republic. At the end, he added, "Hope, you can tell the Jedi Order about this... ..."

Count Dooku showed a meaningful smile on his face, and said, "Okay, I will inform the Jedi Order about this."

...

A day later, the Fourth Group held a grand press conference on a Space Station near Nar Shaddaa, the Smuggler's Moon, the core of the Hutt space. At the press conference, the Director of the Fourth Group, Gross Shelby, announced the new generation of Light Cruisers, the Revelation-class, independently developed by the Fourth Group officially made its first flight and authorized the construction of this type of Light Cruiser to Hiigara Aerospace Group.

The official maiden flight of the Revelation-class Light Cruiser follows the signing of a symbolic licensing agreement between Gross Shelby and Hiigara Aerospace Group Executive Director Kant Walters.

Following her order, a 344-meter-long Battleship broke away from the hyperspace channel and appeared near the space station. I have to say that this kind of Light Cruiser is really ugly, with a compact structure and no streamlined aesthetic feeling, but in the next series of tests, the information displayed is quite shocking.

The Revelation-class Light Cruiser is equipped with two Large Turbolaser Cannons and two Large Plasma Cannons. Although there are not many Turrets, the energy provided by the Antimatter Reactor is powerful enough, and it also brings terrible firepower. During the on-site shooting session, the 80-meter-long CSS-1 Corellian Star Shuttle with its Shield fully opened was shot through the shield in one volley, and the second volley was blown from head to tail without aiming at the energy core, which became countless fragments!

The next step is the speed and flexibility test. The Revelation-class Light Cruisers can reach the level of Frigates in terms of speed and flexibility, which can ensure that they can quickly adjust their design angles during battle, and then provide maximum firepower coverage.

Compared with the current warships of the same type, the Revelation-class Light Cruiser can easily defeat the 315-meter-long Hammerhead-class Cruiser. The appearance of this Light Cruiser is definitely epoch-making! Because this kind of Light Cruiser is a type of warship that absolutely exceeded the restrictions of Russan's Reform. During this period, there were basically no similar warships on the black market, and they were generally small warships below 100 meters in size. Occasionally, there are some larger spaceships but, basically are cargo ships.

So the Revelation-class Light Cruiser is simply a dimensionality reduction strike on the black market at this time! Under the restrictions of Russan's Reform, all the warships that can beat it are in the Republic's military, and all the warships that can be bought can't beat it.

This will completely change the ecology of the warship market. Simply put, if a pirate buys this Light Cruiser, no escort fleet will be able to match it, and vice versa.

In other words, if you don't buy the Revelation-class Light Cruiser, you will fall behind in this invisible competition, and your living environment will have extremely deteriorated in the future.

The eyes of the Viceroy of the Trade Federation, Nute Gunray, who participated in the press conference shone with excitement, and he seemed to see hope. So with a big wave of his hand, he placed a large order for 100 Light Cruisers of this kind! 50 more than he had previously promised.

The snowflake-like orders have made the Fourth Group and the Hiigara Aerospace Group a lot of money, and according to their current strategy, the Revelation-class Light Cruiser is not in the official list of the Fourth Civilization Navy, which is a complete all tool for making money. Since it is a tool, the weapons equipped on this Light Cruiser are naturally castrated versions.
