The giant corporations that started in Night City

In fact, the Imperial Army's AT series armored walkers are not equipped with any outstanding reaction energy weapon armor. The main armor function is to reflect energy beams.

When faced with an AI killing robot like the Chimera tank that can fire armor-piercing projectiles, the AT walker simply cannot withstand it.

On the frontal battlefield, the Astartes warriors of the world's giants also completely suppressed the Imperial Army's ground troops. No one could stop the impact of these "iron cans".

The AT walker that was originally able to dominate the rebels' heads was now completely reduced to a moving iron coffin under the overwhelming firepower of the global giant's Expeditionary Corps.

In addition, the Decepticons headed by Megatron are also relying on their high mobility advantages to continuously launch fatal attacks on walkers on the ground.

Although the AT series walking machine can reach a speed of 90 kilometers per hour, it is considered outstanding among many imperial armored forces.

But you must know that the Decepticons are the fastest group among the Transformers, and their top speed can reach an astonishing Mach 2.8.

That is 3430 kilometers per hour!

Obviously, in front of these Decepticons, the imperial troops under them are like slow caterpillars. As long as the goshawk catches them easily, the prey can be easily obtained.

The most terrifying thing is that these Decepticons can also complete the transformation of the mecha form at lightning speed while moving at high speed.

The AT walker was then dismantled and dismembered.

This is the true strength of the ground forces of the World Giant Enterprise Expeditionary Force. When it comes to ground warfare, even within the entire Galaxy Empire, no force can be the opponent of the Giant Enterprise.

Under the cover of the World Giant Expeditionary Force, Paul and Qini rushed to the landing point of the transformed spacecraft.

Halfway through, an AT-ST rushed up and tried to trample the two to death. Before Paul could draw his lightsaber, he killed them on the spot.

A fighter jet suddenly passed by high in the sky and knocked the AT-ST walker over violently. The momentum was like a meteorite falling to the ground.

After knocking the walker away, the fighter jet suddenly transformed into a ten-meter-tall steel giant. The high-temperature mantis knife popped out from the wrist, neatly cutting the AT-ST in half.

The whole set of combo moves flows smoothly without any sloppiness.

Obviously, the Transformer was Megatron on the Dreadnought. It followed the Astartes warriors and landed with other Megatrons to assist Paul in bringing the information back to the flagship headquarters.

"You're lucky, you're still alive."

As Megatron spoke, he pulled out the hard light cannon from behind and blasted another approaching AT walker into pieces.

"I underestimated myself too much. I settled everything in less than 15 minutes. You should have come down earlier." Paul said with a slight smile.

After realizing that they could not fight against the giant expeditionary force, the Imperial Army's combat policy immediately changed, that is, at all costs, kill Paul who stole the Death Star design blueprints!

For a time, Paul, who became the target of public criticism, was targeted for killing by all the imperial forces. Without the cover of the giant expeditionary force, he would have been drowned in the wave of soldiers.

After all, no matter how strong Paul's swordsmanship is, he is still not strong enough to "open the gate of heaven with one sword". He cannot instantly defeat the Imperial Stormtroopers in front of him.

At this time, an F22 Raptor fighter jet flew from high altitude. It was Starscream, the adjutant of the Decepticons!

The fighter jet's cabin door popped open quickly, signaling Paul to get on the plane quickly. In terms of flight speed, Starscream was quite confident.

"Stop talking nonsense and get out of here quickly. Chief David has been waiting for you for a long time!" Megatron said to Paul.

Later, it helped block the Stormtroopers who were chasing after them from behind. With Megatron, the steel god of death, blocking it, the Imperial Army seemed to have hit an insurmountable copper wall.

"Thanks!"

Paul and Chini got into Starscream's cockpit and raced all the way to a safe landing point. Then they boarded their own transformed spaceships and rushed back to the Mantle in space.

After Paul successfully evacuated the ground, the expeditionary legion of the world's giants organized their retreat in an orderly manner.

They did not come here to fight with the Imperial Army. Now that Paul has returned with the information, the next task should be handed over to the Space Fleet.

However, even after Paul entered the space environment, the Imperial Army still pursued him relentlessly.

With the arrival of Imperial reinforcements, more and more Imperial Star Destroyers came to the orbit of Scarif.

The fierce fighting in the space battlefield has far exceeded the firepower on the ground.

A large number of Imperial carrier-based aircraft TIEs were thrown into outer space as if they were free of charge, and they became entangled with the X-wing fighters of the Rebel Army.

But after they discovered that Paul's deformed spacecraft had left the atmosphere, they all rushed to chase and bite him.

"This is really exaggerated. This is the first time I have been chased by so many people."

Paul shook his head jokingly and chuckled, but he had already expected that he would not leave so easily.

After all, the space navy power of the Galactic Empire is the foundation for Palpatine's sole power. They cannot allow other forces to obtain the design of the Death Star.

However, the main fleet of the world's giants is also approaching Paul.

In order to prevent Paul from returning, the Imperial Star Destroyer even followed suit, and launched a suicide attack with the Mantle, just like the TIE carrier-based aircraft.

Although the Mantle is a larger steel monster, with a length of hundreds of kilometers, it looks like a small planet.

In comparison, the Imperial-class Star Destroyer is like a paper boat, but even so, they still choose to rush forward without hesitation.

However, the size difference between the two sides is there, and the Mantle has a stasis field and a traction field, as well as tens of thousands of artillery arrays.

Even if the Imperial Star Destroyers hit the Mantle one by one, they are powerless to the overall situation.

In desperation, they can only send TIE fighters as numerous as stars to encircle Paul's transforming spacecraft.

For this reason, the Empire even ignored the AI ​​drones and carrier-based aircraft groups of the Rebel Alliance and the giant companies, and only used all its energy to destroy Paul.

This decision is quite correct.

For the Galactic Empire, nothing in this space battlefield is as valuable as the Death Star design, otherwise they would not use the Star Destroyer and TIE carrier-based aircraft as disposable consumables.

However, the Imperial Army obviously underestimated the air combat performance of the transformable spacecraft. Their TIE carrier-based aircraft is indeed fast, but it cannot compare with the transformable spacecraft of the giant enterprise.

Here, Paul drove the transformable spacecraft, like a fluttering butterfly on the space battlefield, with a messy and disordered flight trajectory, cleverly allowing the spacecraft to intersperse between the TIE carrier-based aircraft and the laser cannons of the Imperial Star Destroyer.

The sky-wide laser beams crossed the dark universe star field, interweaving a web of death. The Empire tried to use this web to completely extinguish the cunning and sensitive Paul.

However, all these attacks passed by the spacecraft where Paul was, and the Empire's TIE carrier-based aircraft were constantly bombarded by friendly beams.

Exploded into bright and gorgeous fireworks in space, the entire battlefield became more chaotic and congested.

The scattered and dismembered wreckage of the spacecraft formed a galaxy of parts, floating all over the battlefield. If you are not careful, you will crash into it and be crushed to pieces along with the wreckage.

Such operations that test extreme reaction and driving skills are just basic operations for a warrior like Paul who has been developed by spices and has a short-term precognition ability.

The reaction games he usually trains are much more terrifying and perverted than what he sees.

At this moment, with the help of absolute reaction speed and precognition, Paul doesn't even need to fire back, just control the spacecraft to dodge continuously.

TIE fighters that dare to approach him will be destroyed by the laser cannons of the Imperial Star Destroyer in a short time.

Soon, Paul drove the transformed spacecraft and rushed back to the cabin of the Mantle, while the TIE carrier-based aircraft that were chasing him were all shot down by AI drones.

[Is this guy really a human? He has been turning for so long without slowing down. It's crazy! 】

Seeing this scene, the pilots of the Rebel Alliance were dumbfounded. They were also experienced fighter pilots.

But this was the first time they had seen such an outrageous micro-manipulation. This was not something that normal people could do!

After all, this not only had extremely high requirements on the performance of the fighter, but also required the pilot to have sufficient reaction speed and a certain degree of predictive ability.

There were many laser barrages with tricky angles. It was impossible to avoid them in time just by reaction speed. You could only realize it in advance.

If you don't use AI assistance, basically no one can do it!

What's more, the flight trajectory of the spacecraft making large changes in direction in succession was also a great physical torture for the pilot in the cockpit.

The vestibular system in the human inner ear cannot withstand such high-intensity and long-lasting speed changes and steering. Even a well-trained pilot should have been turned unconscious.

But judging from the state of the spacecraft driven by Paul, he didn't seem to be affected at all.

However, this is the superpower warrior developed by spices. As one of the best, Paul is more than capable of escaping smoothly.

Paul rushed back to the cabin of the Mantle, and finally he could relax and take a good breath. After this mission, he once died on Scarif.

Fortunately, there was no danger. After returning this time, Paul just waited for a promotion and salary increase, and officially entered the management of the Advance Team of the Heavens!

On this side, the ultimate weapon of the Galactic Empire, the Death Star, finally arrived at this chaotic and cramped space battlefield.

The Death Star that appeared from the hyperspace channel was like a satellite hanging in the outer orbit of Scarif. Its appearance immediately made many rebels feel panic.

The destruction of Jedha by the Death Star a few days ago is still vivid in their minds, and they don’t want to follow in its footsteps.

At this time, the order from the headquarters of the Ten Thousand Worlds Base was also delivered to the flagship of the Mantle.

[All personnel evacuated the battlefield in an orderly manner and tried to avoid confrontation with the Death Star! 】

The person who issued the retreat order was none other than Leon, the supreme governor of the Universal Corporation.

After obtaining the imperial military data on Scarif, the original information of the Starkiller Base was also obtained.

Now, the huge Galactic Empire no longer has strategic weapons that are worth Leon's worry. What he should do next is not to continue fighting with the Imperial Army.

Instead, he should sit down and negotiate with the Galactic Empire and discuss with Palpatine the integration and division of the rights and interests of the Star Wars universe.

As long as Palpatine is willing to make concessions, Leon can nod and let him serve as the interstellar governor of the 007 "Star Wars" universe.

There is no need to say much about Palpatine's ability to govern. If he is given more time and more helpers, his Galactic Empire regime will be stronger than the Old Republic, and the speed of resource coordination will be faster.

More importantly, the generals and officers represented by Marshal Thrawn in the Imperial Army are really good at fighting!

In the original plot of "Star Wars", with the help of the Jedi Knights, the Rebel Army once completely defeated the Imperial Army and completed the great cause of restoring the Republic.

But Marshal Thrawn, who has a great command and combat ability, faced a situation of collapse with only one main crystal base left, and played a gorgeous operation comparable to "Tian Dan's Restoration of the Country".

The Imperial Army once hit the Rebel Army's hometown, and relied on a wave of counterattacks to take away the Rebel Alliance and reverse the entire situation!

But at this time, the Rebel Army is no longer the gray and dusty sewer rat that was chased around by the Empire.

The forces behind them are the former Republic nobles, the Trade Union consortium, and the Jedi Knights who are eager to revive!

Grand Marshal Thrawn's counterattack, which is enough to be recorded in history, has also become the last swan song of the Galactic Empire.

After the demise of the Galactic Empire, the elite imperial army that survived has never succumbed to the defeated generals of puppets such as the Rebels.

They know very well that the Rebels are just pawns chosen by the old forces, or puppets controlled by them.

In order to inherit Palpatine's great legacy of unifying the galaxy, the remaining imperial army established the "First Order" organization to continue fighting against the new Republic.

During this period, the First Order took out the ultimate version of the Death Star weapon-Starkiller Base, which destroyed the capital of the New Republic, Hosnia, and the entire naval fleet.

The First Order's Starkiller Base almost wiped out the nobles of the entire Republic with one shot. Such a terrifying military force also completely angered all forces in the galaxy.

In their eyes, the First Order is a madman with absolutely violent weapons who can overturn the table at any time. To deal with such an enemy, they can only destroy it completely.

So only one year later, the First Order was defeated by the concentrated fire of all the forces in the Milky Way, and the former Galactic Empire was completely destroyed.

This is why Leon is sure that there is a high probability of the existence of the Starkiller Base in the database of Scarif.

Because according to the plot timeline of "Rogue One", it is now before the Battle of Yavin, that is, 0BBY.

The time point of the First Order's demise is 35ABY more than 30 years later, and the Galactic Empire announced its unconditional surrender in 6ABY.

According to the actual time point and situation, the defeated Imperial Army was under the difficult conditions of no resources, no forces, and enough scientific researchers.

It was able to take out the Starkiller Base, which is more powerful than the Death Star, in less than 30 years.

The only reasonable explanation is that the Starkiller Base had a basic design blueprint long before the collapse of the Galactic Empire, and even most of the technical difficulties had been overcome.

But the most important problem is that the resources needed to build the Starkiller Base are too many.

For the current Galactic Empire, there is no need to rush to build the Starkiller Base.

After all, this thing can destroy an entire star system in a blink of an eye once it is launched.

All the territory destroyed is the Galactic Empire's own territory. Under the mentality of being afraid of the consequences, the Death Star, which has a lower cost and a smaller killing range, will naturally be favored by Palpatine.

However, what Palpatine did not expect was that the Rebel Army rose too quickly. Before he made up his mind to build the Starkiller Base, his empire had collapsed and annihilated.

The First Order, which obtained the technology of the Starkiller Base, continued to collect resources and build this ultimate weapon in the next thirty years.

This led to the subsequent bombardment of Hosnia and the head-on confrontation between the First Order and the New Republic.

"Boss, with the strength of the expeditionary fleet on the front line, it is easy to blow up the Death Star at the same time!"

"Giving the Galactic Empire a more painful blow can also more thoroughly deter Palpatine, which is more beneficial to our subsequent negotiations."

At this time, Jack Wells advised that now that the Imperial Army's momentum has been frustrated, it is a good time to hit the dog when it is down.

What's more, the people of the Rebel Alliance are watching from the side. Properly showing their muscles can also let these rebels see clearly who is the real boss.

However, in the face of Jack's proposal, Leon shook his head and said that he couldn't do it.

Because if the battle continues like this, there will be more and more Imperial reinforcements behind, and the intensity and scale of this battle will become larger and larger.

When it develops into a large-scale battle, the situation will be completely different.

Originally, Leon's goal was to obtain the technical data of the Starkiller Base and beat up the Imperial Army by the way. Don't cause too much conflict, just stop when it's enough.

After all, Leon still wanted to use fighting to promote negotiations with the Galactic Empire. If he easily destroyed the Empire's Death Star, it would be a big trouble.

The reason is simple. The Death Star is Palpatine's biggest confidence at present. With the Death Star, his imperial regime is stable enough.

But if the giant company treats the Death Star as scrap metal and blows it up, then Palpatine will definitely build the Starkiller Base at all costs!

When the Star Wars turned into a galaxy war that could destroy a star system in a single thought, the Universal Corporation would definitely be dragged to death in the quagmire of war by the Galactic Empire.

Although there are always rebels in various regions of the Galactic Empire and the resistance army is seeking independence, the empire is definitely at its peak at this time!

With an army size of tens of trillions, millions of warships, and a strong industrial system foundation, the empire has a strong ability to explode troops.

Although the Universal Corporation will eventually have the last laugh in a head-on confrontation with the Universal Corporation, the price Leon paid for winning will inevitably be extremely heavy.

For a sufficiently shrewd governor, it is absolutely incompetent to let himself fall into the endless quagmire of war.

Leon's combat style is to fight and make a final decision, never to cause trouble, and never to drag it out and affect the production and development of the enterprise.

If he takes the initiative to show weakness at this time and shows that he is afraid of the Death Star, he can confuse Palpatine and buy time for the enterprise to build the Starkiller Base next.

This will also facilitate the negotiations between the Universal Corporation and the Galactic Empire, as well as the conquest of other galactic forces to make them support the integration of the Corporation.

When the younger brothers are almost won over and a batch of Starkiller Bases are built, it will not be too late to deal with the Galactic Empire at that time!

Of course, Leon hopes that Palpatine can see the current situation and surrender to the Universal Corporation as soon as possible.

With Palpatine's governing ability, once he chooses to join forces with the Universal Corporation, Leon will be able to integrate the "Star Wars" universe faster.

If the Empire insists on fighting the Universal Corporation to the end, what Leon is doing now is to prepare for the final battle in advance and completely collapse the Empire in one go!

"Now is not the time to go to war with the Galactic Empire, it is better to stop while you are ahead."

Leon patiently explained the cause and effect to Jack. After the boss said this, Jack suddenly realized a lot.

As the chief executive of the giant company, he can always stand at the height of the overall situation and clearly see the development trend of things!

As Leon's highest order was clearly passed down, the various units fighting on Scarif began to quickly withdraw to the aircraft carrier.

After receiving the physical hardware containing the Death Star data from Paul, the staff of the intelligence department immediately sent all the data back to the base headquarters.

After seeing that there was no missing or omission of the data information, Paul breathed a sigh of relief, and his mission was successfully completed.

"Paul, you have worked hard all the way."

David Martinez patted the shoulder of this junior with admiration in his eyes. With this data information, he immediately turned around and reported to his superiors for promotion.

Let Paul serve as the action team leader of the All Heavens Pioneer Team.

David was promoted from the leader of the action team to the head of the department step by step, and now he has become a member of the honorary members of the Ace Pioneer Team.

David still knows how fast this position is promoted, so the key position can only be left to trustworthy people.

During this period, Paul went to the front line many times and brought such critical data information to the giant enterprise. His ability to do things is beyond doubt.

Therefore, he is also worthy of being valued by the giant enterprise and put in a more suitable position.

Facing David's encouragement, Paul did not have time to be happy. After taking a breath, he immediately said:

"We have to copy a copy of the Death Star information as soon as possible and transfer it to the rebel alliance on the opposite side, so that they can leave here quickly!"

After all, the fleet of the rebel alliance also paid a huge price. If they had not come to support, the giant enterprise would definitely take more time to get everything done.

They suffered heavy losses for the Death Star design drawings. If they returned empty-handed, the giant enterprise would be somewhat unreasonable.

In addition, Paul also wanted to tell the rebel alliance to evacuate quickly. The Empire's Death Star has arrived. If they don't leave now, it will be too late!
