Seeing Chen Gang and his entourage descend, a middle-aged man wearing a very popular silver suit in Corellia walked over. He nodded slightly at Chen Gang. Although his expression was respectful, there was a sense of superiority unique to Corellians in his bones.
"Are you Mr. Chen Gang? I heard that you are a famous collector in Coruscant. It is my honor to meet you. "The middle-aged man bowed slightly. He only needed one look to know that this person in front of him was either rich or respectable. That was because he had a steady temperament. The confidence that he had was definitely not something that could be faked. The Corellians could look down on anyone else in the Milky Way Galaxy and call them bumpkins, but they would never go against money.
Chen Gang smiled but did not return the greeting. He only replied politely, "Mr. Abbott, it is a pleasure to meet you. Bring me to a place to settle down first. I still have a meeting with Lord Ecclesi to arrange. "
Ebert hurriedly waved his hand, and a luxurious hover car drove over. He bowed and welcomed Chen Gang, "The hotel you're staying at has been arranged. It's one of the best hotels in Treasure Crown City, and you'll definitely receive the best service."
"Hehehehe …" Chen Gang waved his hand nonchalantly. "It doesn't matter where I stay. I am an antique collector. Most of the time, I even search for ancient ruins. These things don't matter. This is my first time in the Corellia Galaxy. I have long heard that this place has a long history, and the natural environment has not been destroyed. I hope this trip will not be in vain. I hope I can find a collection that I am satisfied with. "
"I wonder what kind of collection Mr. Chen Gang is interested in?" Abbott tried his best to maintain the topic. Although Chen Gang seemed a little indifferent, it was this attitude that convinced him of the identity and status of this person in front of him.
"Hehehehe, I have all kinds of collections. From the galactic monitor lizards to the ruins of the Stone Age civilization. But in general, I am more inclined to collect the traces of those civilizations. For example, the spear of the Infinite Empire that was sold for one billion credits in an auction on Coruscant three months ago was one of my collections. I obtained a more complete spear of the Infinite Empire, so I sold this defective one. " He paused, smiled politely, and continued, "But this should be the topic of conversation between me and your master, Lord Ecclesi."
Abbott hurriedly lowered his head and apologized. "Sorry, I overstepped my bounds …"
The floating car arrived in front of a grand and luxurious hotel. Albert respectfully escorted Chen Gang and the others to their rooms, then quickly left to report to his master, Lord Ecclesi. Lord Eklesi attached great importance to this influential figure from Coruscant. In order to befriend such a person, Lord Eklesi had used a lot of connections. Unlike the independence and isolation of the people at the top of Corellia, people like Lord Ecclesi, who wanted to advance but had nowhere to go, were open to all kinds of connections.
At the same time, in the hotel where Chen Gang and the others were staying, Talon Calder was nervously scanning the sky with an instrument.
"The gravitational coefficient of Corellia is normal, huh?" Talon Calder said as he looked at the readings of the instrument.
"Hehe, don't worry about that. Have a cup of tea first." Chen Gang smiled and waved his hand. "If you can see the abnormality, why would you wait for us? Others would have found out long ago. Don't be so nervous. Just treat it as a vacation. The more you think, the more flaws you will expose. "
Talon Calder put down the instrument and said, "But are we just going to eat the best, play the best, and do nothing? From Coruscant all the way to Corellia, we must have spent hundreds of thousands of credits in this month! "
"Hahahaha, it's okay. Tang Yu is rich now. It doesn't matter if he spends a few billion to eat and drink! " A black shadow flashed, and Shi Mingdong suddenly appeared beside Talon Calder, patting him on the shoulder.
"But …" Talon wanted to say something but was interrupted by Chen Gang with a straight face.
"No buts! Just eat, drink, and play for me during this time, and then completely play yourself into a rich kid! Play all those secret missions and whatnot in your heart until they disappear for me! If you can't do it, then get lost! "Chen Gang said sternly.
Shi Mingdong also chuckled and said, "I think you used to be a smart person. Why did you turn back into a brat when you came here? We can't do anything like this! In a place like Corellia, if we give ourselves away even the slightest bit, we're dead meat. "
Talon Calder grabbed the bottle of expensive blue fruit wine on the table and gulped it down. Then, he tossed the bottle aside and said with a cheeky smile, "Since that's the case, I'm going out to have some fun!"
…
At the same time, the capital of the Galactic Republic, Coruscant.
A shuttle was flying steadily and soon entered the tenth layer of the underground world of Coruscant. This was the military zone of Coruscant, an area that could accommodate and station an army of tens of millions. It was also the assembly point for the clone legions, and normal humans would never have the right to enter this place.
"I have to admit, this war is harder than I thought, Anakin. This worries me very much." On the shuttle, the chairman of the Galactic Council, Palpatine, said to Anakin Skywalker beside him.
"But this also shows that the separatists are deliberately trying to start a war! Their talk of fighting against tyranny and fighting for freedom is all fake! The truth is, while they are shouting these demagogic slogans, they are constantly building killing machines! "Anakin Skywalker's eyes flashed with hostility.
"Sigh … Yes. This war has become a tool for some people to realize their ambitions. It's heartbreaking. And I have no choice but to send batch after batch of people who believe in peace into the battlefield. Do you know, Anakin, I … I'm extremely lonely. No one understands me. They are always blaming me for not promoting dialogue and negotiations, always saying that I started the war … Only you, Anakin, that brave and fearless young man in the Battle of Naboo, gave me confidence. You made me feel that I still have one last confidant. "Palpatine looked a lot older, and the wrinkles on his face were even more wrinkled.
"Follow your own heart! Do what you really want to do! The Force will guide us! "Anakin Skywalker's eyes were filled with determination." So, I believe that you are not wrong! This war can only be settled through war. There is no other way! Only by bringing Count Dooku, Tang Yu, and the other culprits of the war to justice, will the galaxy welcome peace! "
"Hehehehe, seeing that you are as passionate as ever, I am relieved. I will help you suppress those weak voices that want peace. And you, do your best to fulfill your dreams and end this war! "Palpatine patted Anakin on the shoulder." I have a sword for you. I firmly believe that only when this sword is wielded by you can it be called the Sword of Peace. "
Before he could finish his sentence, the shuttle suddenly flew into a very wide underground space, and in this place, there was endless darkness! No, this was not darkness, but an army! It was a black army!!!
