The Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

2480, Exposed

"Promise in person..." Orson Krennic fell silent.

It must be said that this plan was very tempting. Because what he was most worried about now was that the construction plan of the Death Star could not be completed on schedule... He got rid of Wilhuff Tarkin, which seemed to be a great political victory on the surface, but in fact, he had to pay a price.

Who is Tarkin? If we don't count Darth Vader, who is deeply trusted by His Majesty the Emperor, the next two leading figures in the Imperial military are Wilhuff Tarkin and Dunn Wessex. It is impossible to defeat a person of this level, so it is necessary to get the personal order of His Majesty the Emperor.

When Orson Krennic asked Palpatine to kick Wilhuff Tarkin out of the DS-1 project, he made a guarantee that if the work could not be completed on time, he would be beheaded and there would be no price to negotiate.

This is definitely much more efficient than recruiting workers from other places, retraining and re-arranging them. And most importantly, there are no safety risks caused by large-scale recruitment.

"So, Empress Kalina, she will enter a weak period due to the large-scale childbirth. She is worried about safety issues, so she needs my face-to-face promise?" Orson Krennic frowned and said, "Can't I communicate with her privately?"

"She is, after all, a symbol of our people, and you can show your respect to her by going there in person. She is also determined to make sacrifices for the cause of the Empire," Bogel-The Lowlife replied humbly.

Orson Krennic thought for a moment, then stood up and said, "Okay! Then I will accept your explanation and pardon those who rioted temporarily. There won't be a next time."

After saying that, he waved his hand, and in the holographic projection, the Geonosian laborers who were suffering in the oxygen-deficient environment and were already dying finally regained enough oxygen. They all breathed in big gulps, fearing that they would take one less breath.

Immediately afterwards, a large number of Imperial stormtroopers rushed in from outside the projection screen and arrested all the laborers.

"In the next month, the workload of these workers will be doubled. Otherwise, they will be shot on the spot." Orson Krennic felt that Bogel-the-Inferior and Emperor Kalina had surrendered, and he said proudly.

Then, dozens of imperial soldiers in black combat armor walked in and stood behind him.

This is the Death Guard, Orson Krennic's personal guard. They are all the most elite clone soldiers, and the heavy black combat armor is also the latest light power armor produced by Rosana Heavy Engineering Company. Every soldier of the Death Guard has a super combat power of one against ten. If it is a Geonosian, it may be one to one hundred.

The Death Guard actually served the Emperor Palpatine, so if Orson Krennic made any unusual moves, these Death Guard soldiers would immediately kill him.

Since he was going to meet Emperor Karina in person, Orson Krennic would not relax his vigilance. With this team of Death Guards, even if there were 10,000 more Geonosians, they would never be able to get close to him.

Bogel-The Lowborn finally breathed a sigh of relief. He lowered his head and followed Orson Krennic towards the bridge entrance of the Devastator.

However, after taking a few steps, Orson Krennic suddenly stopped, and Bogel the Lower Man lost his balance and almost bumped into Krennic.

Looking up, I saw two people in black robes standing in front of Orson Krennic!

They were wearing black robes, with hoods covering their heads and faces, and their hands were tucked into their sleeves, as if they were always clasping their hands. Even standing here, they exuded a chilling aura!

Bogel-The Lowlife knew that these two people had been standing behind Orson-Krennic since the beginning, but even if he knew, he didn't know why he always ignored their existence.

And, when did they suddenly appear in front of Krennic?

"Do you have anything to say, my Lords the Dark Prophets?" Orson Krennic asked with a frown.

"If I were you, I would stop this stupid behavior," said the male dark prophet.

"Such an obvious trap, even without the foresight of the Force, you can still find that something is wrong..." the female dark prophet sneered.

Bogel-the-Inferior, who was just feeling thankful that Orson Krennic agreed without too much doubt, now felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over him from head to toe!

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

His whole body was almost stiff, and his heart seemed to have stopped beating!

Orson Krennic turned around, his expression obviously changed, and he asked coldly: "Is that so? Grand Duke Bogle."

“What…what nonsense!!” Bogel-the-Inferior was already somewhat incoherent. He stammered, “Her…Majesty the…Queen…does not…have…any…aggressive…she…she…she…”

He finally made up his mind and shouted with all his might, "This is impossible!! These two people are liars! They are liars!!"

However, a mocking smile appeared on the corner of Orson Krennic's mouth. He slowly asked back: "Do you know... who they are?"
