Chapter 1233 Messenger (It’s Too Cold to Go Out for a Bike Ride)

"Ugh...why am I so unlucky..."

When they returned to the battleship, only Kisara looked depressed - after all, she was the most embarrassed after all. Basically, all the aliens on Tatooine were killed by Duanmuhuai, while the others had already had experience and stayed away. Only Kisara was new and unfamiliar, and he was sprayed all over Xiao Meiyan without even reacting.

It can be said that it is extremely unlucky.

"Wouldn't it be nice to take a shower and change clothes?"

Duanmu Huai didn't take it seriously, and Mu Geng just glared at Duanmu Huai resentfully, and then left straight away. Seeing this scene, others could only smile helplessly... After all, nothing was appropriate in this occasion.

"Ah, uncle."

At this moment, Aikote came over and waved excitedly to Duanmuhuai.

"We received a communication. The other party claimed to be a messenger from the Galactic Republic and wanted to talk to us!"

"oh?"

Hearing this, Duanmu Huai was stunned for a moment, and then looked at An.

"Your method really works."

"I didn't expect it to be so soon."

Although An seemed calm on the surface, he was somewhat surprised. It was actually An's idea for the Inquisition to stay on Tatooine. According to An, it is generally difficult for such conservatives to appear openly. They can be found in places like slums and black markets. Their eyes and ears. Duanmu Huai and others came to the Galactic Republic for the first time and were unfamiliar with the place, so they could only choose Tatooine as their temporary destination through the Galactic Republic's network.

After all, this place is where fugitive criminals hang out and gather, and it is also beyond the reach of the Galactic Republic. Therefore, if the conservatives have any informants in the dark, they will usually be in this place... Now it seems that Angui was right. ?

"Let him in."

"Okay, uncle."

Returning to the bridge, it didn't take long for Duanmuhuai to see a middle-aged and elderly man wearing a cloak with snow-white hair and beard walking in. When he saw Duanmuhuai sitting on the throne in the center, the old man was stunned for a moment. , and then bowed his head respectfully.

"Hello, my name is Dooku and I am here on behalf of my master to deliver his message to you."

As he spoke, Dooku stretched out his hand and took out a small disc like a dressing mirror. The next moment, a 3D image of a man also wearing a cloak and looking older than Dooku emerged from it. .

"Sorry to meet you in this form."

The old man looked at Duanmu Huai. Although his face could not be seen clearly under the hood, his chin and mouth were still clearly visible.

"Let me introduce myself first. My name is Darth Sidious."

"Duanmu Huai, the Grand Inquisitor of the Inquisition."

Staring at the image, Duanmuhuai said calmly.

"Your Majesty the Inquisitor."

The old man chuckled.

"I greatly admire what you have done on the planet Naboo. You have eliminated the trade alliance that tried to blockade the planet Naboo and maintained peace and justice in this universe..."

"The Inquisition does not care about justice and peace."

Duanmuhuai waved his hand, interrupting Darth Sidious's words.

"The Tribunal only cares about human beings. Any existence that threatens humanity must be eliminated. This is the creed of our Tribunal. It is also the reason why we destroy the fleets of those lowly alien bastards. I don't care who is right or wrong, but anyone who dares Races that take action against humans are all enemies of the Tribunal.”

Having said this, Duanmuhuai snorted coldly and looked at the old man.

"Okay, let's forget about those nonsense scenes. Why did you come to me? Just open the skylight and speak frankly."

"…………Hahahahahahaha."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's words, the old man was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.

"I see, I see, it seems that you are indeed the descendants of the Goddess's Guards."

"………………?"

What is the Goddess Guard?

Duanmu Huai looked at the others in confusion, and everyone also gave a look with the same question mark. Lumière made a gesture, indicating that he would investigate later.

Well, it's up to her.

The old man did not dwell on this topic, but quickly explained his purpose to Duanmu Huai. To put it simply, apart from the corruption and incompetence of the Galaxy Parliament, in the final analysis, he hoped that Duanmu Huai could cooperate with him. , seize the power of the Galactic Parliament! Turn the entire Galactic Republic into a Galactic Empire!

Duanmuhuai also likes Darth Sidious's straightforwardness. It's just that there is so much bullshit for a purpose. It would be nice to directly point out the central idea. As for the other party's desire to seize power, Duanmu Huai doesn't care about such trivial matters, because he has only one purpose in coming here, and that is to eliminate the alien race as much as possible and increase the progress of natural disasters. From this point of view, this careerist is really of some use to Duanmu Huai.

"So what you are saying is that you hope that the Inquisition will assist you in seizing the dominance of the Galactic Republic?"

After listening to the old man's story, Duanmu Huai thought for a moment.

"So, will you commit to building a nation with humanity at its core?"

"Of course, Your Majesty the Inquisitor."

The old man nodded slightly.

"If that's the case, then we do have a basis for cooperation."

Duanmuhuai thought for a moment and then made a decision. When he heard Duanmuhuai's decision, the old man also showed a smile.

"In that case, would you like to come to Coruscant to discuss this with me in person?"

"Teacher?"

When Duanmu Huai heard the old man's invitation, he hadn't said anything yet, but the messenger was a little surprised, but he quickly lowered his head and stopped talking.

"Of course, no problem."

Duanmu Huai also felt that it was most convenient to talk in person. Ambitious people are good, because only ambitious people can get along with the Inquisition. On the contrary, Duanmu Huai hated the moralists the most. Many times, those bastards were just dragging their feet. As long as the ambitious people were not tainted by the evil gods, then for the Inquisition, they would be much easier to cooperate with than the moralists.

"Then I will be waiting for you in Coruscant."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's answer, the old man smiled again.

"In order to avoid alerting the enemy, I suggest that you take my apprentice Count Dooku's ship to Coruscant. After all, your actions on Naboo have attracted the attention of the Galactic Senate and the Jedi Council. If you take your own warship to Coruscant, you may cause unnecessary trouble. And my apprentice... has a certain reputation and status in Coruscant, and can ensure that you arrive safely."

"That's settled."

The two sides talked briefly for a few more words, and then Duanmu Huai signaled Count Dooku to go back first, and they would set off after getting ready. The latter naturally would not object, and obediently returned to the hangar under the guidance of the maid doll.

"That old man is not simple."

After Count Dooku left, An quickly expressed his opinion.

"I think he must be a member of that parliament, and he has been planning to seize power. He is very ambitious and courageous. He is willing to cooperate with us without even knowing our identities. Such a person is really difficult to deal with."

"But didn't he say that the Galactic Senate is very corrupt now?"

Humiko Akemi blinked.

"Is he lying to us?"

"It doesn't matter."

An shook his head.

"No matter what kind of regime, there will inevitably be a certain degree of corruption, it's just a matter of how much. For a large country like the Galactic Republic, which has hundreds of races, it would be surprising to say that it has no corruption at all. Even in Manalia, I don't believe that the ministers and nobles below are all good people without any selfishness. A country is like a person. A person will always get sick, but the degree and frequency of illness are different. You can't say that a strong person is actually a sickly person just because he catches a cold."

"Politics is really complicated..."

Hearing An's explanation, Mary couldn't help but sigh. To be honest, she felt that she might as well fight the evil god than communicate with politicians...

"This time An and Mary will come with me, and the others will stay on standby."

Duanmu Huai didn't care and made a decision quickly. An was his think tank and specialized in politics. In this regard, Duanmu Huai basically didn't use his brain now, and listened to An completely. What An said was what it was. Just like Mary sighed, Duanmu Huai doesn't like politics. Professionals should do professional things. As a princess, An is good at political negotiations. If An can't handle it, Duanmu Huai will... Oh, Duanmu Huai can at least convince people with reason.

That's fine.

"By the way, Zhen Ji Ling, you are responsible for leading a team of night guards to clean up this planet."

Before leaving, Duanmu Huai also patted his head, then looked at Zhen Ji Ling and issued another order.

"I heard that there is a very annoying person named Jabba on this planet, and there are many alien scums who capture humans as slaves. This is absolutely not allowed by the Tribunal. You should know what to do."

"Understood, big brother, leave it to me."

The reason why Zhen Ji Ling was asked to lead the team is because Zhen Ji Ling is now the public relations director of the Tribunal. With Zhen Ji Ling's superior charm, it should be no problem to help the Tribunal open a way in this star field.

However, just as Duanmu Huai had just given the order, he saw Ogis beside him hugging Duanmu Huai's arm, then climbing up like a monkey and sitting on Duanmu Huai's shoulder. She looked as if it was a matter of course - although Duanmu Huai didn't call her.

"Okay, let's go."

Duanmu Huai rolled his eyes silently. What else can he do with his little cotton-padded jacket? It's good to bring her with him, at least on the surface, it can make the other party relax their vigilance, right?

The people went out more often, and there was no need to make any preparations. Soon Duanmu Huai brought three people to the hangar and saw Count Dooku's spaceship - of course, although this thing is called a spaceship, it is also pitifully small by the standards of the Inquisition, at most a few dozen or a hundred meters long, and Count Dooku didn't say anything nonsense. Seeing Duanmu Huai and others coming, he greeted them respectfully, and then drove the spaceship away from the battleship of the Inquisition.

Frankly speaking, Duanmu Huai didn't have much hope for the technological level of the Galactic Republic, and he was mentally prepared to take the green train. But what Duanmu Huai didn't expect was that the other party actually surprised him!

"Wow, such a small spaceship can exceed the speed of light?"

Looking at the light bands flashing outside, Duanmu Huai was somewhat emotional. Many civilizations can travel at superluminal speeds, but generally speaking, even for cosmic civilizations, superluminal travel is basically carried out on the main ship, such as the Normandy of the Star Alliance.

But the FTL navigation of the Galactic Republic is very popular. Even this small spacecraft, which looks like a simple shuttle, has the ability to travel at FTL!

I have to say that this really surprised Duanmu Huai.

How did the technology tree of the Galactic Republic go? Is it crazy? Who puts a racing engine on a bicycle?

On the way, Lumiel also sent Duanmu Huai the information of the Goddess Guard. Duanmu Huai only then knew that a thousand years ago, the Galactic Republic also had a Vandiel and a mutant combat nun?

Of course, it can be said that this side is much luckier than the Vandiel of the state religion. He was overthrown until the 19th century.

Unlike Vandiel, he was chopped by the Emperor's Bride he raised with a sword.

Learn from the past.

After reading the information sent by Lumiel, Duanmu Huai breathed a sigh of relief and nodded silently.

This time, he can't be overthrown again. He must learn a lesson and solve it once and for all.

As Duanmu Huai silently made the decision, the beam of light in front of him disappeared, and then a huge, shining planet appeared in front of Duanmu Huai.

That was the capital of the Galactic Republic—Coruscant.
