The giant corporations that started in Night City

"What about Palpatine? That old guy is the number one prisoner named by the boss. If we continue the bombardment, we might directly kill that old guy."

Galen Erso looked at Johnny and continued to ask.

Although Palpatine was his old employer, he had long disliked him. Now that he had the opportunity to kill him with one shot, he naturally didn't want to miss it.

But looking at the overall situation, Palpatine cannot die yet.

After all, the Galactic Empire's capital is still in the opponent's hands. If the giants of the world do not go through a series of legal procedures and seize it by force, there will still be some troublesome counter-insurgency wars.

The size of the Imperial Navy is there, millions of Star Destroyers are no joke.

Even if the world's giants want to swallow up all these powerful naval forces, it is not that easy.

But if we can successfully obtain the capital of the empire from the other party and hand over the power smoothly, it will definitely be the best for the giant companies in the world.

"Don't worry, this matter has been approved by the boss, we just shoot."

Johnny Silverhand smiled lightly.

According to the information disclosed by Li Ang, the Sith Lords of the past generations have a unique skill, which is to use the powerful dark side force to complete the soul transfer with the help of clones, so as to achieve rebirth!

This kind of soul transfer can be so fast that one second it was still in the body, and the next second it can instantly appear in a prepared clone.

However, the key point is that the cloned body must be intact and have no traces of physical damage. Otherwise, the soul cannot combine with the body to complete the restart, and it will be trapped and die in the cloned body.

Eventually the soul will gradually dissipate!

In the original plot of "Star Wars", Palpatine relied on this method to transfer his consciousness into his clone body when he fell from a shaft and was about to die.

However, due to insufficient preparation, he was once trapped in a broken and dying body, and even his soul almost fell into the chaotic hell.

If Palpatine's interpersonal relationships weren't strong enough, even in the Chaos Hell, there would still be ghosts of the ancient Sith Lords helping him out.

And the Eternal Cult followers of the Sith Empire repaired damaged clones by splicing genes, improving physical tissues, etc. Palpatine was really disappointed.

Chaos Hell can be regarded as the "void" plane in the "Star Wars" universe. It is the primitive void and chaos before the birth of the universe.

Sith Lords whose dark side force strength is not up to standard, unable to achieve rebirth in the filthy earth, or become ghosts, will fall into this place and suffer eternal torture.

Originally, Palpatine could also enjoy this "special treatment".

But he couldn't stand it. The former leader helped to deal with the thunder, smoothed the relationship, and the slaves worked like crazy, stayed up late and worked overtime with desperate efforts. This was the miracle of Palpatine's resurrection from the dead!

Of course, even if the Sith Lord can complete the rebirth of the dirty land with this method, his own Force strength and physical condition will definitely not be as good as the original.

This is equivalent to weakening one's own power every time he is reborn, so not every Lord has enough force to complete rebirth multiple times.

In order to survive in the world for a long time, many Sith Lords chose more economical methods.

That is to stay in the world shamelessly as a "Force Ghost". These ghosts can possess items that can be preserved for a long time.

Like the walls of a temple, or a holocron.

With Palpatine's cunning methods, he will definitely be resurrected in some way and appear in another place.

When the time comes, Johnny Silverhand will have plenty of ways to get him to show up and honestly negotiate with the giants in the world.

And what they have to do now is to give this old guy Palpatine a hard blow, to open his eyes and gain insights!

"All right."

After getting David's nod of permission, Galen Erso immediately issued the final order to the giant company employees below: "Starkiller starts to charge up and prepare to fire!"

As the staff of each department turned on the device, Starkiller quickly gathered the already absorbed star energy mixed with dark energy, waiting for the next launch order.

Long before this Starkiller set off, it had already absorbed enough energy. The Starkiller at this moment was completely enough to destroy the entire Yavin galaxy battlefield!

"All personnel near the gun port should evacuate immediately and hide in safe rooms." David Martinez immediately issued the order.

Starkiller's cannon barrel penetrates almost through the entire interior of the planet. Once the cannon is fired, the recoil produced will be astonishingly large.

Therefore, everyone must enter the safety fortifications in advance, otherwise the impact caused by the sound of the cannon will shatter all life around them.

In front of the center console of Starkiller Base, the Death Star appeared on the holographic image. It had completed its initial charge and could fire on its own side at any time.

At this moment, combatants on both sides were constantly collecting data and intelligence, desperately calibrating the opponent's specific position so that they could kill with one shot in this battle between Western cowboys.

It's just that in this real Star Wars, the people at the helm of the Death Star and Starkiller have completely different mindsets.

Palpatine was confident with doubts, but what Johnny Silverhand was thinking in his heart was that he hoped that the power of this shot would be just right and not accidentally hurt one of his own.

At this time, the main guns of both sides were ready, and each had completed loading and charging. It was just a matter of who would complete the launch first.

Bang!

With a flash of strong light, the Death Star's super laser cannon finally opened fire. Although the Imperial Army had not yet fully calibrated the position of the Starkiller, the enemy was so large.

Even if it was slightly off, it would be easy to hit the opponent.

Immediately, eight dark green laser beams converged from the surface of the Death Star, forming a dazzling high-energy laser cannon, which bombarded the Starkiller with an unstoppable attack.

This was almost a Death Star with full firepower. When the super laser cannon attacked the Starkiller with a precise path, the high-ranking officials of the Empire, including Palpatine, thought they had won.

Even if the opponent was equipped with a planetary shield force field, the shield would still be penetrated, and the core of the celestial body would be shattered by the laser cannon until it completely exploded and collapsed.

Palpatine sat steadily in the command center of the Death Star, watching with satisfaction the super laser cannon, which quickly cut through the dark space and rushed straight to Starkiller.

This shot gave them the upper hand. Whether the opponent's Starkiller was just pretending to be powerful or was really capable would be revealed with this shot!

The Death Star's super laser cannon was like a shining energy beam, heading straight to Starkiller from here. Just when this beam was about to touch Starkiller.

Johnny Silverhand also gave the final order: "Starkiller, fire!"

The next second, a beam of light mixed with dark energy and stellar energy quickly passed through the atmosphere. The shock and sonic boom generated during the period, like the shock wave after a nuclear explosion, swept across the surface of Starkiller.

The ripples that emerged were like a meteorite falling on the sea level.

The Starkiller base itself was transformed from an ice and snow planet. The recoil of this shot directly shattered the thick glacier.

The entire ice field close to the muzzle became as soft as silk, with waves rising.

Thanks to the fact that this is a permafrost continent, the hard and solid continental plates on it are stable enough to withstand such recoil.

At this moment, the space monitoring system on the Death Star also detected the signs of the Starkiller firing, but the high-ranking officers of the Imperial Army just regarded it as a futile act of the other party's dying struggle.

Because they found that the laser cannon fired by the Starkiller Base disappeared out of thin air halfway through the firing!

This is simply a big joke. Many high-ranking officers of the Empire laughed out loud when they saw this scene. No one would believe that an ultimate weapon that can't fire can pose any threat to them.

Seeing this, Palpatine finally put aside his doubts. After making such a big fuss for most of the day, the other party's Starkiller is just a fake that can't fire!

'Humph! I knew that the rebels only knew how to use the power of the tiger to bully others, and they still wanted to bluff me? It's not that easy. ’

Palpatine’s mood improved instantly. He only wanted to see how the Death Star’s laser cannon would tear apart the fake one in front of him.

However, just as the high-ranking officers of the Imperial Army were busy opening champagne at halftime to celebrate their upcoming destruction of Starkiller, an accident suddenly occurred!

It turns out that the attack principle of Starkiller is not the traditional sense of firing a gun and then hitting the target along a predetermined trajectory to cause damage.

When Starkiller fires the "fifth element" energy cannon, which is a mixture of stellar energy and dark energy, it will tear the energy cannon out of hyperspace, and then use hyperspace as the muzzle to follow the gravity source to separate multiple energy beams to hit the target.

To put it simply, the artillery fire fired by Starkiller can be scattered into multiple parts and hit multiple enemy units at the same time.

And the attack trajectory cannot be predicted or observed. By the time the opponent reacts, the fifth element cannon has already landed on the enemy's face, which is completely unavoidable!

What's even more exaggerated is that the Starkiller's attack range can cover the entire Milky Way. This small Yavin Galaxy is completely unable to take advantage of the Starkiller's ultra-long attack distance.

Soon, the Imperial Army's monitoring personnel discovered that the missing fifth element cannon had reappeared from their side and rear.

And the beam of light actually split into multiple parts, attacking different areas respectively!

Just when the high-ranking officials of the Imperial Army were still confused and stunned, a cannon had already landed in the center of the Imperial Fleet.

As the extremely shining light emerged, the Imperial Fleet was instantly annihilated, and a large number of Star Destroyers turned into dust, as if they had never existed.

The Death Star's super laser cannon was also hit by one of the fifth element cannons, and its destructive power was immediately reduced.

When the laser cannon landed on the Starkiller base, it automatically triggered the outermost shield force field, and then it was regarded as a fatal blow by the Imperial Army, and there was no movement.

At this moment, the high-ranking officers of the Imperial Army on the Death Star suddenly realized that the cannons fired by the Starkiller had never disappeared. They just split into multiple beams and attacked them in an unobservable direction.

"What the hell is going on!"

Palpatine had never expected this to happen. The Death Star should be the strongest ultimate weapon in the galaxy.

How could it be so easily resolved by the opponent's beams and force field shields? This is unreasonable!

His first reaction was that there was some error in the firing procedure of the super laser cannon, resulting in the failure to fully release the energy of the hypermatter reactor.

In addition, Palpatine really couldn't figure out how the energy beams of the Starkiller that disappeared suddenly appeared after disappearing, and fissioned into so many beams.

This is obviously wrong!

On the other side, other technicians who participated in the design and construction of the Starkiller Base were already frightened.

Could it be that——!

This is the sub-hyperspace continuum fission cannon mechanism of the Starkiller!

The Imperial military researchers who participated in the design of the Starkiller Base naturally knew what the perfect Starkiller would be like, and everything that was happening now was in their expectation.

If nothing unexpected happens, they will be the next ones to be hit!

"Your Majesty, I advise you to leave here as soon as possible, really..."

Before the Imperial Starkiller project manager on the side could finish his words, several fission beams that suddenly flew out of hyperspace had hit the planet near the Death Star.

These dispersed fifth element cannons carried destructive power and instantly completely destroyed the crust of the entire planet, followed by collapse and disintegration!

Paul witnessed everything that happened in the outer space battlefield at the blind spot of the Death Star. The Starkiller's hyperspace fission cannon caught the Imperial Army completely off guard.

They didn't even observe where the energy cannon flew from, and the entire Imperial fleet was destroyed, but the terrifying scene had just arrived.

The planet near the Death Star was just destroyed, and the next second another energy cannon crossed the hyperspace tunnel and attacked the Death Star, and this time it hit the bull's eye.

At this time, Palpatine was in the command center, watching the strong light coming.

The dim starlight around had long been blocked by this beam of strong light, as if the entire universe was completely melted at this moment.

Palpatine's eyes began to blur, and the whole person seemed to have his soul suddenly taken away. In an instant, he and the entire Death Star's command room disappeared under the bombardment of the Starkiller.

The fifth element cannon fired by the Starkiller easily penetrated the entire Death Star, just like a high-temperature armor-piercing bullet piercing a plastic plate, and no matter how hard the shield force field was, it was useless at this moment.

This shot was very accurate, just destroying the command center of the Death Star and paralyzing the command system of the Imperial Army. They became leaderless lambs to be slaughtered.

Because all this happened so quickly, most of the high-level officials of the Death Star did not realize what was happening. They only felt a flash of strong light in front of their eyes, and then the dust settled.

The only thing that the Imperial Storm Troopers were thankful for was that this beam attack was the last wave of fission cannons, which was far less powerful than the previous ones.

Therefore, the energy cannon only left a hideous huge hole on the surface of the Death Star, and the overall structure was not completely destroyed.

It was not until this moment that the survivors on the Death Star suddenly realized how terrible the Starkiller bombardment was just now.

In comparison, the Death Star, which they regarded as the ultimate weapon, was completely insignificant in front of the Starkiller. The gap between the two sides was a world of difference!

It was no wonder that the other side was so confident and deliberately waited for them to fire first. It turned out that they were well prepared.

When the results of this round of bombardment came out, everyone saw the true power of the Starkiller Base.

The millions of Imperial Stormtroopers on the Death Star almost completely lost their will to fight. They were panicked and secretly glad that they did not die in this "show up and kill" star war.

At this time, Emperor Palpatine himself and his command center had been completely destroyed. The Imperial Army, including the Death Star and the remaining Imperial fleet, was completely in a state of chaos and disorder.

In an instant, more and more Stormtroopers began to scramble for airships and spaceships to try to escape. Once the trend of defeat was formed, it would trigger an endless wave of deserters.

No one dared to say that they could continue to win in this war with a huge disparity in strength.

Even the emperor was dead, so no one was worthy of their service!

The high-ranking officials of the Empire, who were originally sophisticated egoists, took lifeboats to escape.

But the limited number of lifeboats had already been snatched by a large number of Imperial Stormtroopers. In order to get a chance to escape, they had begun to kill each other.

No one wanted to stay here and wait for the next round of fission cannon bombardment from Starkiller!

Paul and his group, who were hiding inside the Death Star, suddenly found that they no longer needed to hide carefully.

Even if they walked out in a swagger, these defeated Imperial Stormtroopers had no intention of paying attention to them.

Whatever happens!

Without the central command, the morale was low, and driven by a strong desire to survive, the entire Death Star was in chaos.

This was normal. Even the Death Star's super laser cannon could not do anything to the Starkiller on the opposite side, so what else could they do.

The cruel and cold facts were in front of them, and now it was important to escape quickly.

A small number of Imperial officers knew that the Galactic Empire was doomed, so they could only close their eyes in despair and use the blaster rifles in their hands to send themselves on their way with dignity.

In stark contrast to the panic and collapse on the Death Star, the rebel allies on the ground of Yavin IV were cheering.

Even if they were sitting on the ridge of a field in the countryside and looking up at the starry sky, they could still see the huge Death Star being hit by the fission cannon.

Everyone saw how the Death Star, the ultimate weapon of the Empire, was destroyed by the Universal Corporation.

The Galactic Empire, which was once so powerful that it made people despair and dread, would no longer be the invincible army!

This victory not only hit the health bar of the Empire, but also directly hit the Empire, which had three health bars, into a near-death state.

The victory song completely eliminated the fear of the Rebel Alliance towards the Empire. The Death Star, which once made them feel uneasy, became a joke at this time.

Jyn Erso and Captain Cassian tightened their lips, as if they were trying their best to hold back their tears of joy.

As the first members of the Rebel Alliance to fight against the Empire, they have experienced too many setbacks and hardships, and have seen too many companions die under the bombardment of the Empire.

Now that the great revenge has been taken, all disputes will end with the demise of the Empire!

After the Death Star completely lost its ability to move, Johnny Silverhand issued another order to let the Infinity-class aircraft carrier on the Starkiller Base take action to destroy the remaining Imperial fleet.

The Starkiller Base is not only a huge celestial-level weapon, but also a movable military fortress that can accommodate two complete giant enterprise expeditionary corps formations.

Soon, the giant enterprise fleet led by Andrew, Raleigh, and Mori Mako went to the battlefield like the black and white impermanence to harvest the remaining imperial warships.

The imperial fleet, which had already been bombarded by the Starkiller and had lost all morale, chose to surrender or stay where they were and wait to be captured.

Only a very small number of Star Destroyers would go head-to-head with the Infinity-class aircraft carriers, intending to fight to death.

And Andrew would also meet the other party's needs, use the hard light main gun to execute the death cannon, and send the other party on the road with peace of mind.

At this time, the captain of the Executor, Kendall Ozer, was forced by Darth Vader's threat and did not dare to surrender easily for a while. He ordered all departments to continue to stick to their posts and not to act rashly.

But his few words could not control the restless people's hearts at all.

What's more deadly is that Andrew also released a large number of AI aircraft to invade the Executor, and reminded everyone through the broadcast that surrender would not be killed.

With this sentence, the stormtroopers on the Executor immediately mutinied, rushed into the bridge headquarters to kill General Ozzel, and surrendered to the Universal Corporation.

The surrender of the Executor Super Star Destroyer basically announced that the Imperial Army was doomed, and the Battle of Yavin would also be settled.

The Death Star was scrapped, the Executor surrendered, and the Imperial Army no longer had any military power to fight against the Universal Corporation!

At the same time, the Hyperion and Phoenix set sail from Starkiller Base one after another, carrying Master Obi-Wan, Penny, Sam and other large landing troops to the Death Star.

Now that the Death Star has completely fallen into a state of paralysis and turmoil, it is the best time to take over this ultimate weapon.

Especially to arrest Darth Vader and find the whereabouts of Palpatine!

At this time, Paul and others were walking on the passage to the core area of ​​the Death Star. They decided to guard the hypermatter reactor of the Death Star.

This thing is made up of a large number of Kyber crystals after all, and it cannot be destroyed in the turmoil.

On the way, a large number of imperial personnel were running out in panic, desperately looking for an escape route from the crowd, and almost no one was still walking inside.

Watching countless imperial stormtroopers passing by them, Captain Cassian and others looked stunned, but they felt it was reasonable.

In this chaotic situation, who would care what they want to do?

The physical and psychological blows that the Starkiller Base gave to the imperial army were at the level of crushing withered withered.

The most common people Paul saw along the way were deserters and imperial officers who shot themselves. Everyone was shrouded in deep despair and a cramped high-pressure environment.

"Is this the boss's plan..."

Paul couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

From the beginning, the Universal Corporation never thought of competing with the Galactic Empire in terms of explosive power, but used the other party's technology to develop the ultimate weapon that could kill with one shot.

Perhaps today's situation had been set by the top management of the giant company a year ago, or even a few years ago.

This is the top-level design ability of the giant company!
