1029. Frozen World
"Planet Jabur... is another planet that has been ravaged by war." Darth Malthael said slowly, "4,000 years ago, the Galactic Republic and the Mandalorians launched a tragic war. This is the Mandalorian War...and in order to prevent the invasion of the Mandalorians, the Galactic Republic has built a defense line on several resource worlds that are close to each other."
He clicked on the universal tool a few times and looked at the few official records about the planet Jabr, but more of them came from his own memory.
"This is the Jabr-Wago-Tarnit line of defense. This line of defense is equipped with a large number of hyperspace blockers and countless outposts. There are four mobile fleets ready for battle at any time. The purpose is to protect the outside world at that time. The commercial and economic center of the Ring, known as the Taris planet of Coruscant in the Outer Ring." Darth Malthael shook his head mockingly, "History has shown countless times that the stronger the defense line, the more problems will arise. .”
"The planet Taris was destroyed, causing a chain reaction, and a gap appeared in the defense line. The Mandalorians immediately sent out their Mandalorian Armada, and soon destroyed the unpopular Jabul Vago Tarni special defense line, and successively occupied the planet Jabur and the planet Talis." Darth Malthael spread his hands and said, "Then, there was no more... All records end here, about this Mandalore The recorded direction of the war turned to other fronts. But according to my judgment, the planet Jabur is in danger."
"Muir's amulet has the ability to easily destroy the order on a planet...but you have never taken this taboo evil thing seriously." Lucien Del Rey said.
Darth Malthael smiled coldly and said nothing.
The spaceship left the hyperspace channel, and the dark and deep universe reappeared outside the window, and what caught their eyes was a not-so-big planet.
According to the scanning results, this planet is located in the sixth star system and is relatively far away from the star, so the entire planet is an icy planet.
The main reason why records can still be left here is because the planet's geological environment is relatively stable and it has a complete atmosphere. The overall average temperature is between minus 20c and minus 50c, where life can still survive.
And because the ice on the Jabr planet contains a variety of rare elements, many companies came here to dig out the ice and transport it back for refining. People who specialize in this life are called 'ice diggers'.
In the Jabr-Vago-Talnit defense line built by the Galactic Republic, the output of the Jabr planet happened to complement the large-scale mining field of another resource world, the Vargo planet. The ice shipped from here would be After melting, the rare elements inside are refined, and then processed into high-strength resistant steel armor plates used by warships on the planet Vargo.
However, after this line of defense was completely captured by the Mandalorians during the war between the Galactic Republic and the Mandalorians 4,000 years ago, the planet completely lost its records. There is no way to know what happened.
The planet Taris was destroyed by the Sith Empire's orbital bombardment, and was later occupied by the Mandalorians. What happened to the planet Jabour?
Although no one knows, the current state of the planet seems to indicate something.
Because this frozen planet... is black.
The scene seen after the spacecraft entered the planet's atmosphere also confirmed this - the entire planet was covered with black ice, black, black everywhere.
Black ice, black clouds, black dust.
Not only that, as the planet scanning ended, Darth Malthael and the others were speechless as they looked at the round appearance of the planet.
Yes, this planet is very round, with no peaks or highlands, only
There is an endless ice cap.
Presenting such a scene, there is only one possibility...
"This planet also suffered a devastating orbital bombardment. The orbital bombardment caused the global ice to completely melt. Therefore, this planet became an ocean planet for a long time. Then it took thousands of years. It gradually cooled down over time, and then was frozen again." Zelakas said.
"Then these blacks..." Darth Malthael frowned.
"Yes, the remains of the Rak Ghoul Virus." Zelakas said, "The Rak Ghoul Virus is very contagious, and they can even infect microorganisms in the air. And because of the power of Moore's amulet, Under the influence of unknown force technology, this virus can survive for a long time. At this time, it is killed due to the high temperature of orbital bombardment. These viruses are mixed with the dust in the sky, forming this kind of virus that persists for thousands of years. The black dust...these dust dyed the seawater black, and the seawater was frozen, and this place became such a world of black ice."
Darth Malthael sneered, "Another orbital bombing... It seems that the Mandalorian Crusaders also brought the Rak Ghoul virus here after obtaining Moore's amulet."
"And when they found they couldn't control the spread of the virus, they destroyed the planet with orbital bombardment," Zelakas added.
"But this has also caused us great difficulties! Every part of this planet is the same, except for black ice. Is there any result from the planet scan?" Darth Malthael asked.
"The regular scan is over and there are no results. A deep scan originally used to scan the planet's mineral veins is being started, but this scan may take several hours," Zelakas said.
Darth Malthael looked at the radar screen of the spacecraft and said coldly: "I don't think we need to wait so long..."
He looked at a small dot that appeared on the screen, "It seems that the industry of ice diggers has not been extinct due to the destruction of the Jabr planet."
It was the signal of a small cargo craft.
"This spacecraft is not armed in any way," Zelakas said.
"Then knock him off."
The Protoss transport ship suddenly began to accelerate, and soon it approached the ship that looked like it had gone through several owners and modifications. It was completely unrecognizable from its original model, and then rushed over without any explanation!
A panicked voice came from the public communication channel, "Hey! Who are you! What do you want to do?! Stop! Stop!! You are going to hit..."
Bang! ! The two spaceships collided directly!
The Protoss transport ship was unscathed, but the left wing of the cargo ship was directly broken off. The spacecraft shook. If it weren't for the anti-gravity device, it would have fallen long ago.
On the cargo ship, several crew members dressed as smugglers were busy controlling the spacecraft. However, at this moment, a voice appeared in their minds, "Stop the ship."
"What?" the spacecraft pilot asked subconsciously, but then realized that no one was talking around him.
"You should have heard it, landing." At this time, a sinister voice suddenly appeared next to him. This was not a voice in his head, but a voice that sounded directly!
All the crew members were startled. Only then did they realize that a sinister-looking person wearing a black cloak had appeared in the cockpit.
"You are..." Before the pilot could finish his words, he was choked by the blood-red lightsaber suddenly placed on his neck. _&
