Knock wonders from the space station

Chapter 404 Black Market Planet
Three months after the Battle of Sapphire, the Sanctuary star cluster, the Veigle-controlled area, the black market planet Tatooine, and the No. 3 slave black market.

suddenly,

A burst of violent explosion sounded from a low sand-colored concrete building in the city, and thick smoke rose up. The huge movement attracted all the residents of the city to stop and watch, but they quickly looked back in surprise, and then a A floating car rushed out of the thick smoke and headed towards the black market.

Half a minute later, a group of distressed Vigels emerged from the smoke and dust in a wheeled off-road vehicle, and chased the vehicle in the direction of the vehicle in front. There were loud gunshots along the way.

This kind of scene like gangster fire is not uncommon in Tatooine. This is a black market, so it is inevitable that gangsters will eat gangsters.

Especially the owner of this planet, His Excellency Lord Wolawi, has disappeared for some time, and the few orders on the planet are also rapidly collapsing.

Residents of the No. 26 black market have long been familiar with the strangeness. Pedestrians tacitly hid in the alleys on both sides of the street. Street vendors cursed and opened the directional shields facing the street. Basking in the sun on an armored vehicle has no intention of maintaining order.

Law enforcement here is equivalent to pinning your head to your belt, and your wages are paid daily.

But in fact, since the lord Wolawi was recalled by Grand Duke Mordiggian, their wages have been ruthlessly owed. The reason why they are still here is because the skin and the advanced equipment in their hands can help They earn a little extra money, they justifiably eat and drink in the black market, and live a good life.

As for maintaining order, hehe, you want people to work hard without a salary?
Besides, the eyes of these veterans are poisonous, and neither of the two chasing parties is easy to mess with.

The pursuers behind are the thugs of the Chiya Gang. The Chiya Gang is the largest slave owner in the No. 26 black market, holding more than 40% of the imperial slaves.

And the side driving the floating car is a little unfamiliar, it should be an outsider, and the low-end outsider is the fat sheep that the law enforcement team likes, but these are not included in this list.

Floating vehicles are not cheap in Tatooine, and not everyone can afford them.

It's not technically difficult, what Tatooine lacks most is obsolete technology.

The main reason is that the high-energy gas used as fuel is too expensive. Generally, only the spaceship owner is willing to buy some low-grade gas rich in impurities, so as to avoid predators on the ground.

As for ordinary people, they prefer cheap and reliable fuel vehicles, electric vehicles are the second choice, and animal-drawn vehicles are the next choice. Anyway, only big dogs and fools choose anti-gravity vehicles.

"Heh, the world is really getting more and more chaotic, the storm is about to come, maybe it will change at any time..."

The squad leader lying on the top of the armored vehicle lazily swiped his phone, while throwing a piece of dried dark brown spice into his mouth and chewing hard.

Spice is a general term for dozens of addictive substances produced by Tatooine. Some can refresh and relieve pain, while others are strongly hallucinogenic. Armed personnel like the law enforcement team who lick blood with knives will generally not touch those hallucinogenic spices. , and only love refreshing spices.

But regardless of the effect, the toxicity of these spices to the body is indisputable.

"Boss, if there's any news on the Internet, tell us quickly. When I save enough money, I want to buy one too."

There were two law enforcement officers under the armored vehicle. They couldn't afford spices, so they could only share cigarettes and stared at the phone in the boss's hand covetingly.

The star area under the control of the Vigels is very chaotic. As an infrastructure project, the coverage rate of the star network is extremely low, so that the bottom-level residents have no information. Only a limited number of private terminals have access to the dark net, and can obtain some real-time news and entertainment. Serve.

The star network is the access network of the Galactic Empire, covering all galaxies under actual control, involving all areas of people's livelihood, and the special frequency band has not yet been used by the military.

The dark net is set up by the Vegel lords in their own control area in imitation of the star network. Not only are there insufficient communication nodes, insufficient bandwidth, and a simple structure, but even the content on the Internet is directly obtained from the star network on the empire's side through special channels. Those who come here for free have a lot of delay and distortion.

Even so, the dark web still requires high access fees. Only a fat and lucrative position like the captain of the law enforcement team has the spare money to allocate such a dark web access authority for himself, and it is the lowest level of access authority, which can only access towers. Get low-value entertainment information and civilian information from the local area network of the Tuyin galaxy.

Even so, he can obtain insider information and information that ordinary people cannot access from above, which is crucial to his "legitimate business".

Of course, pointing out Jiangshan from his younger brothers can also bring some added value in terms of vanity to the squad leader.

"Hey, can you understand me, I am illiterate who can't read a single word."

"Hey, Boss, we bought this to watch small videos on the dark web. If we want to know the situation in the world, we still have to listen to your opinion, Boss~"

The captain of the law enforcement was very useful. He felt that the dried spices in his mouth became more and more delicious, and he said excitedly:

"Let's talk about the imperial pig first, their dog emperor is finally dying, the capital circle is undercurrents, a group of nobles are fighting openly and secretly, the royal family is fighting each other, and the separatism of the outer planet is also showing signs of rising.

For example, the two dukes of Tianci star, together with several marquises, took the opportunity to annex the territories of other minor nobles, sealed off the entire planet, then expelled the imperial officials, and publicly announced their support for the succession of the fourth prince. the trend of……"

"The dog emperor is dying?
It is said that he is a level 8 psychic just like our Grand Duke. He can move mountains and fill seas with his mind power, and he can break mechs with brute force, plus the medical technology of the empire...how could he die?
Is there something hidden here~"

The team leader was very satisfied with the reaction of his subordinates, so he explained mysteriously:

"Ahem, you are not psykers, so it's normal if you don't know.

This psyker needs to use his soul to connect to the void after level 3, and obtain promotion capital from the void. The void is not a good place, and he will kill every step of the way.

I often walk by the river without getting my shoes wet. From level 4 to level 8, it's not that easy. If you don't pay attention, you will catch it. Presumably the dog emperor came out when he was exploring the void. What an accident, he deserves to die. "

Hearing the heated discussion among the secret subordinates, one of them asked:
"By the way, since the top management of the empire is in chaos, can our plundering fleet take advantage of the fire to loot? It seems that we haven't taken advantage of the empire for a long time. It's all small troubles."

The squad leader curled his lips proudly, and said:
"Oh, otherwise, why do you think our lord has gone? He has already received the call from His Excellency the Grand Duke and brought the main force of the fleet to join the Grand Duke. I have received reliable news that the flagship of the lord has been sailing for 3 months. , must be killing all directions in the empire right now..."

The younger brothers stood in awe, when suddenly someone asked a discordant question:
"Then...then why did we cut off our wages? Even if we go out to rob, the order at home shouldn't be left behind, right? Look at the chaos now..."

The squad leader's face froze immediately, but fortunately he was facing the sky, so he didn't show timidity in front of his subordinates.

But I have to admit that the doubts of his subordinates are very reasonable. Even if Wallaway goes out with the army, he should not give up control of Tatooine.

As the trading hub of the entire Meteorite Jedi, Tatooine carries the trade between several surrounding colonial stars. It is the largest place for pirate lords to sell stolen goods, and it stands to reason that it will never be abandoned.

But in the past three months since Wallaway disappeared, the order of Tatooine has been rapidly collapsing, and the forces that have lost their suppression are ready to move, and the environment is becoming more and more dangerous.

He can't get in touch with the top executives of the law enforcement team, but he still knows the middle ones. According to a somewhat friendly (good filial) team leader, the order they received was not to act rashly and just maintain the status quo.

But this is obviously just a superficial statement. According to his analysis, the real meaning of the high-level is to shrink the power and let the people below fend for themselves!
The reason why these law enforcement teams still exist is that they are just pretending to show to outsiders, just pretending.

The captain let out a cold snort in his heart.

He just recently got the news that Tatooine's defense forces hadn't left the base for many days, the perimeter of the base was under martial law, and even the nearby communications were disrupted, all the anti-aircraft towers were turned on, and not even a bird could fly in.

From the looks of it, Tatooine is definitely about to change, maybe it will change its owner...

The squad leader's face was gloomy, and he suddenly lost interest in talking. He silently browsed the dark web, hoping to obtain some key information from it.

At this moment, the screen of the communicator in the captain's hand suddenly flickered, and the signal began to be intermittent, and finally it was cut off directly.

"Hey, can your cell phone make calls?"

"Yes~"

The subordinates tried it, and it was a little inexplicable.

The squad leader's face became even uglier, which meant that it was not his side that was being disturbed, but the problem of the dark net.

You must know that Tatooine’s darknet covers the entire galaxy. There are hundreds of signal base stations in space. Only if all of them are paralyzed, or the control tower on the orbiting space station is closed, there will be more or less signals.

No matter which of these two situations occurs, it means that something big happened.

"There is a situation!"

"Huh? What's the matter, boss?"

The subordinates were startled, immediately threw away their cigarette butts, and immediately reached out to touch the assault rifle on their backs. The reaction was still very fast.

"I don't have time to explain, get in the car first, and talk about it in another place!"

The squad leader didn't say much, but turned back and got into the armored car under his buttocks. Although his subordinates were very puzzled, they followed obediently and got into the car.

The entire law enforcement team has a total of 13 people. Except for the captain, driver and gunner, there are a total of 10 members, all of whom are equipped with light exoskeletons, and their combat effectiveness is not bad.

The engine of the wheeled armored vehicle roared and left the street with a roar, heading towards a certain warehouse in the city.

Within a few minutes after they left, shadows of ships suddenly appeared outside the blue atmosphere.

There's a fleet out of warp off Tatooine orbit!
