2016, The Brightest Darkness
The capital of the Galactic Republic, Coruscant.
Unlike the extremely prosperous surface of Coruscant, the deep and vast underground world of Coruscant was filled with all kinds of filthy transactions. It was not unreasonable to say that it was dark under the light. At least in the brightest place of the Galactic Republic, the deepest darkness was still hidden.
In one of the private rooms of an inconspicuous but luxuriously decorated bar in the underground world, a person hidden in a black cloak was sitting on the sofa with her legs crossed. Five extremely sharp scalpels were nimbly moving up and down her fingertips.
From the graceful curves of her legs and the white and slender fingers, it could be seen that this person was a woman. Although her face could not be seen clearly, at least it was a woman with a very good figure. Behind her stood an officer wearing an old-fashioned military uniform and a mask. She also looked like a woman.
They just stood there quietly, not saying a word. However, the dozen or so people standing in front of them were as quiet as cicadas in winter, their bodies trembling non-stop. These people included mafia leaders, smugglers, and even government officials! They all stared at the five scalpels in the woman's hands with trepidation. This meant that she was going to kill five people today!
"In today's parliamentary vote, Planet Bass and Planet Triti still voted in favor of Motion 37. What about your previous promise? "Svetlana said coldly from behind.
"S … sorry … Golden King … I, I clearly … yesterday, yesterday, yesterday, Senator Senuto clearly received 300,000 credits from me and vowed that he would definitely oppose it today!" A Neimoidia businessman said in a panic.
"Yes, that's right … Yesterday, I also secretly sent an envelope to Senator Gerry. Inside it was an explosive grenade! He definitely knows what it means! "Another mafia member hurriedly explained.
The one sitting on the sofa was Peacock. She suddenly said, "But they still voted in favor. How are you going to explain that?"
The two people in front of her immediately knelt down and wailed, "We don't know! Maybe it's because the Jedi Knights were involved … We really don't know!! "
Peacock's fingers trembled slightly, and the two scalpels disappeared from his hands. The merchant and the gangster immediately twitched, bleeding from their seven orifices, and collapsed stiffly. She used her Dimensional Arcana to directly teleport the scalpel into their brains!
Svetlana, who was standing behind her, continued, "Also, have you caught the person who tried to threaten the Bith Councilor?"
The two gangsters hurriedly waved their hands and pulled in a human who was tied up. Svetlana stared at him and asked, "Who sent you?"
The human looked at the two corpses on the ground and immediately trembled like a sieve. Without hesitation, he spilled everything he knew. "It's … It's Tuenbak-Tura's request! She felt that she had offended Planet Guardian last time, so she was thinking of all kinds of ways to completely destroy Planet Guardian so that they would never have the ability to take revenge! "
"Alright, I understand." Peacock said faintly. Another scalpel disappeared from her hands, and the man also bled from his seven orifices and fell to the ground, dead in an instant.
Then she played with the remaining two scalpels in her hands. Her eyes hidden under the shadow of the cloak sized up the people in front of her coldly, making their hair stand on end. Finally, a government official could not take it anymore. He broke down and shouted, "Please, please spare us … Golden Queen! In the future, we will do our best to do things for you, and will never neglect you! "
Peacock chuckled, and the remaining two scalpels in her hands instantly disappeared! Everyone in front of her closed their eyes in fear, but then they heard the dull sound of two heavy objects falling to the ground. They saw two hidden bounty hunters falling from the roof beam, bleeding from their seven orifices!
"Next time when you do something, make sure your hands and feet are clean. Don't always ask me to clean up after you." Peacock stood up and said, "I've heard what you said. Next, it's up to your performance. Resolution 37 will be voted on a second time in a week. You should know what to do. "
"Yes! Yes! Yes!! " Those people hurriedly answered, but when they raised their heads again, they found that the two people in front of them were long gone! They looked at the closed door in horror, and the completely enclosed room. They had no idea how they left!!
…
Peacock and Svetlana appeared in an even more secretive room. It was a completely sealed space. Other than countless small ventilation ducts, there were no other entrances or exits. Only Peacock could enter through her dimensional ability. This was their absolutely safe secret space.
There were a lot of confidential documents placed here. After Tang Yu secretly told them that the Guardian Planet had joined the Independent Galaxy Confederation, they immediately started their own operation. Count Dooku was once a highly respected master in the Jedi Knights. Unlike his former master, Master Yoda, Dooku was very concerned about political affairs. Therefore, the network he left behind on Coruscant was also very terrifying. Just the tip of the iceberg was enough to help Peacock and Svetlana carry out their operation here.
The mission Count Dooku gave them was to influence the decisions made by the Galactic Republic's parliament, so that they would make decisions that were beneficial to the Independent Galaxy Confederation. At the same time, Peacock and the others would also make judgments based on the current political trends and think of ways to use Count Dooku's resources to help the Guardian Planet win a more relaxed development environment.
Peacock picked up a stack of documents on the table and flipped through it. She shook her head and said, "It seems that we can't stop Resolution 37 from passing. Once this bill is passed, the main planets of the Milky Way Galaxy will conduct a thorough investigation, and all organized combat robot armies will be destroyed and disbanded. "
"This is because someone reported that the Trade Federation is still producing combat robots. In fact, this bill is not binding on the Trade Federation at all. They have long shut down the robot factories in the core circle of the Republic and moved them to remote planets. For example, planets like Geonosis and Hypori. "Svetlana pondered for a while, then walked over and poured herself a cup of coffee.
She continued, "I'm worried that this bill is aimed at us … As that person said, Tuenbak-Tula wants to suppress us. The business that we reported to the Galactic Republic on the surface is the G-2 engineering robots, as well as some specialty foods, such as cigars and coffee beans. Once this bill is passed, she will definitely secretly push for it and send an investigation team to our planet. In this way, our hidden robot army might also be exposed! "
"I never thought that the last time I asked for help, she would become our enemy!" Peacock's expression was also a little ugly.
Svetlana replied, "Don't underestimate these senators. They all have their own intelligence networks, and they are intertwined. So Tula must have found out that there is a force supporting us from behind. With her vengeful style of bullying the weak and fearing the strong, she will naturally make a move on us. "
"Then … kill her?" Peacock said coldly.
"Directly murdering a senator is a big deal. It will definitely attract the Jedi Knights to investigate. We must not do that. But since Tuenbak-Tula likes money, we will give it to her, "Svetlana said.
"Continue to bribe her?" Peacock asked with a frown.
"Of course not … She won't accept our bribes now. But if you want to harm someone in politics, do you think there is no way? "Svetlana's lips curled into a sneer.
