324. Final trial
"It looks like you're not dead yet." The figure of Darth Plagueis was reflected in the holographic projection. "Planet Loon is still too simple. There is food and water everywhere. It looks like you are from the past. On vacation.”
"As long as it is the Lord's arrangement, I will do my best to complete it." Darth Malthael knelt down on one knee and said respectfully.
"I am very satisfied with your loyalty. Next, is my final test for you. If you can complete it, then you will truly become a Sith, and your name will be recorded in the Book of Sith. , become a Sith Lord!" Darth Plagueis said with his head raised, as if in his opinion, it was a great honor to be recorded in the Book of Sith.
"Please give me your orders, Lord."
Darth Plagueis nodded with satisfaction, "If you can cross this last step, it means that I am not wrong about the person. Our plan is at the most critical moment now, but next, my time will be more More. I will do my best to teach you and make you the strongest being in this galaxy! Don’t doubt that you have such potential!"
"It's my pleasure." Darth Malthael responded with his head bowed.
He also knew for sure that Darth Plagueis spent less and less time teaching him. Recently, he spent more time letting him study his manuscripts by himself, or arranging some murderous trials for him.
But this also allowed him to take advantage of a loophole, at least now Darth Plagueis is a little eager to get things done. Perhaps because of the obedience and loyalty he displayed, Darth Plagueis focused more on improving Malthael's knowledge and power, but less on brainwashing him with Sith doctrine.
Perhaps Plagueis felt that a loyal disciple like Malthael did not need brainwashing.
Plagueis transmitted a set of coordinates to Darth Malthael, "You can go back and repair for three days, and then go to these coordinates."
"This is...the planet Hyperion?" Darth Malthael's heart skipped a beat.
"That's right. The coordinates of this planet will not appear in the star map of the Galactic Republic, because this entire planet is a huge robot factory. Countless robots are being produced all the time and sent to everyone in the galaxy. A corner. But here, apart from the robots, there is an endless desert. There is no food, no water, just robots all over the mountains and plains and endless pursuit!"
After Darth Plagueis finished speaking, he stared at Malthael with a fierce look, "You can choose not to go, but I need to tell you, whether it is Darth Sidious or Darth Maul, After going through such a trial and surviving on the planet Hyperion for a month. Do you think... you can do it?"
Darth Malthael knew that although Darth Plagueis said he could choose not to go, in fact if he dared to say no, he might not survive tomorrow.
Therefore, although he did not want to go, Malthael still showed a smile named CNM and responded firmly: "I will definitely complete this trial! I will prove my ability, Lord .”
…
Returning to the Glory mothership in the Endor galaxy, Tang Xiao summoned the core leaders of the fourth civilization and arranged the next work again.
In fact, before he has ordered the comprehensive development of military power, there are not many major decisions to be made, and everything is proceeding step by step.
What the Fourth Civilization needs to do now is to seize the time to expand its base. Increase the population, expand factories, add mines, infrastructure and supporting facilities must keep pace, only in this way can we meet the needs of rapid military expansion in the future.
There are only two things that Tang Xiao needs to make a decision on. One is to order 10 Predator-class heavy supply ships from the Trade Alliance. After the goods arrive, they will be converted into light aircraft carriers for use. The Predator-class that was previously captured and modified from Kash-Garulan was named Home, so the next 10 Predators will also be officially designated as Home-class light escort aircraft carriers.
The Predator class was transformed into an aircraft carrier. Although it has a fatal flaw in that it can only take off one fighter jet at a time, and the takeoff speed is very low, the armor is thick and its own firepower is relatively fierce, so it is very suitable as an escort aircraft carrier. Before the first type of aircraft carrier produced by the Fourth Civilization enters service, the Home-class light escort aircraft carrier will support the current fleet's aircraft carrier line.
Another thing is to order another 10 million B-1 combat robots from the Trade Alliance. These robots will all be used as battleship control models. Logistics positions including firefighting, damage control, maintenance, ground handling, air handling, transportation, etc. will all be replaced by robots.
Of course, Tang Xiao really didn't want the B-1 robot to take up these positions, because when he thought of this, his mind was filled with Feilong, Dafeng, and Shinano.
This was the case during World War II. In today's space battlefield, the role of damage control and logistics is even more obvious. Damage control can't keep up, and being shot into the soul is no longer a dream.
Although there are also professional maintenance ships in the science and technology depot, in fierce battles, it is obvious that the damage control team on the battleship itself is more reliable and flexible.
However, the population of the fourth civilization is now a huge problem. Take the 1,009-meter-long Higra-class battlecruiser as an example. Each of these battlecruisers requires a crew of more than 3,000 people. Even the current third civilization needs more than 3,000 crew members. The navies of the four civilizations cannot afford to build a few more ships.
After determining these two things, nothing else matters.
Tang Xiao rested for a few days, and after hanging out a few times with the marrow-loving Gross Shelbia without shame, he took the shuttle and filled it with food and water. According to Das -Fly directly past the coordinates given by Plagueis.
The planet Hyperion is located in the outer ring of the Milky Way, in the very remote Fera sector.
The planet is about 13,000 kilometers in diameter, slightly larger than the Earth. But the entire planet is desolate, with only a thin atmosphere, and there is no way for ordinary people to survive here. Only powerful Force-sensitives can set foot here under the protection of the Force.
The planet Hyperion belongs to the Technology Alliance, and their leader Walter Tambor uses it as a robot factory, and because of the harsh environment here, Hego Damask II also uses it as a training ground.
The Echani Sun Guards he used to guard the planet Sojoron were trained here. Unfortunately, as the planet Sojolen was destroyed under the conspiracy of the former king of the planet Naboo, Ars Veruna and others, Exploded, this elite guard also withdrew from the stage of history with almost no record.
Just when Tang Xiao was piloting the shuttle to land, suddenly the radar siren sounded loudly, and he saw a black fighter jet rushing towards him like lightning!
