Chapter 356: Build the Starkiller! Factory Galaxy! Rescue Leia!
"Reply Li De immediately and ask him to take over Mandalorian as soon as possible and deploy the space defense line. I will send additional reinforcements to assist him in deploying defenses."
Leon ordered to Lucy.
Now that the battle on Mandalore has begun, it is time for the giants of the world to prepare to take action and officially compete head-on with the Galactic Empire!
First, let Li De lead the expeditionary force and unite the local tribes on Mandalorian to give the Imperial Army some power.
Afterwards, they would join forces with other Rebel Alliance and Resistance forces to simultaneously launch a surprise attack on the Imperial Army, completing the task of unifying the galaxy in the "Star Wars" universe in one fell swoop.

Li Ang believed that as long as Li De could start a war on Mandalorian, give the Imperial Army a head-on blow, and draw out the health bar of the Galactic Empire.
Other forces that are watching from the other side and taking advantage of the situation will definitely place their bets quickly and choose to take sides.
At that time, Li Ang will quickly take over the entire "Star Wars" universe with powerful means.
"yes."
Lucy nodded in response, and then conveyed Li Ang's order to Li De on Mandalorian.
On the other side, Night City, Watson District!
Paul, who woke up from the hibernation capsule, had just changed into casual clothes when he was taken to a shuttle by the Astartes warriors sent by David.
In the cabin of the shuttle, David personally received the returning giant hero.
βItβs been a hard journey.β
David patted Paul on the shoulder with great relief.
Two months ago, when Paul was sent back to the Victor Nursing Home, he discovered multiple hidden injuries all over his body. If he had not been treated in time, Paul might have been disabled long ago.
Fortunately, after a period of treatment at the medical center, Paul has fully recovered and is back to a lively state again.
"Do we have any latest action plan now? What should I do next?"
Paul asked David aloud, he was also very interested in the Force of the "Star Wars" universe, if the giants could unite this universe.
Then he might be able to learn some powers in the Force and make himself stronger!
"We are working hard to manufacture the Starkiller Base. Currently, there are 23 Starkiller projects, which are being synchronized in the manufacturing process. It is expected that the first batch of Starkiller Base giant structures will be officially completed in one month."
David replied.
Thanks to the assistance of Galen Erso, as well as the help of the Infinite Machine and scientists from various civilizations in the Science Hub, the blueprints for Starkiller Base were completely completed in less than a week.
Although the giants of the world are unable to mine a large amount of Kyber Crystal, which is used as the energy core to drive Starkiller Base, they can be replaced with other substances and can still deal little difference in damage.
"In addition, we have also gathered an allied force on Mandalore. The final battle between the giants and the empire is coming soon. Now all the ministries are busy with the reception work after the integration."
"As for you, you are on standby for now."
David smiled and asked Paul to accompany him to visit the construction process of Starkiller Base.
Starkiller is a giant weapon that replaces the [Falling Star Sky Spear]. A celestial-level super cannon like this is definitely impossible to produce on Ideal City.
Therefore, the construction base of Starkiller was chosen in the 004 "Halo" universe, mainly relying on the Ark device that can create Halo to undertake the star construction part of Starkiller Base.
The construction tasks of the remaining links are divided equally among the various departments.
Soon, David and Paul, led by the inspector Qianjihu, took a giant ornithopter and entered the factory system of the Starkiller Project.
When I saw an ark like a star, wrapped around an unknown planet, it was constantly being transformed and implanted with a large amount of programmed deformed metal.
Paul suddenly felt a tingling sensation on his scalp that shocked the depths of his soul. This is the power of the group, a miracle that individualism cannot create!
At this moment, Paul was standing on the bridge inside the giant ornithopter. He could directly and clearly see the real-time construction process of Starkiller through the holographic screen in front of him or the observation deck.
"Welcome to the factory system of Starkiller Base!"
Qiansihu introduced Paul with a smile: "Don't be so shocked that your jaw dropped."
The star system they are currently in was originally a binary star system, but one of the stars was drained of energy by a giant company and shattered into pieces.
Instead, the Ark landed in the orbit of the star.
The Ark is the production base used by the Forerunner civilization of the 004 "Halo" universe to build the Halo array. Since the giant company took over the Ark and found all the technical manuals about the Ark in the think tank.
Engineers at the Science Hub have DIYed some giant structures, such as the Transformer War Moon, the Celestial Transformers, and now Starkiller Base.
The shuttles flying back and forth in this star system, as well as the shipyards and production areas located on various planets, are all assembly line systems designed to build giant structures.
Food, entertainment, daily necessities and other supplies all need to be maintained by the world's giant corporate trading circle system.
"This place is really spectacular. Two years ago, I thought Ideal City was the largest production base."
Paul shook his head repeatedly, feeling extremely shocked.
The sight in front of him could indeed make a person with a phobia of megaliths faint on the spot. The giant factories that occupied all his sight were planets that had been highly developed.
Each screw on it is there to serve the construction. The space star field, which should be pitch black, is clearly visible due to the spaceships and the towering galaxy lighthouses.
Looking from the bridge, countless shuttles, warships, and spaceships are like small fish on the bottom of the sea, wandering in this sea of ββstars.
The star system, which was originally desolate with only a pile of rocks and glaciers left, was transformed by the giant company into a factory paradise full of metal.
Forging and fire are the themes of this star system. Workers from various civilizations gather in it to contribute their wisdom and sweat to the giant company.
Although the world giant company has achieved cutting-edge in the field of AI automation, it still needs enough manpower to assist in specific areas.
Of course, there are also many crystal palaces built in this factory star system for workers to entertain themselves after get off work.
After a hundred years of development, the Crystal Palace has long become a designated relaxation and entertainment place for the world giant company. The content inside is naturally all kinds of extravagant projects.
Super dream, food, art appreciation, including the recent popular "Oasis" game between various civilizations, competing for the top player, can all be satisfied in the Crystal Palace.
In the Universal Corporation, the most difficult working environment will naturally be equipped with the most luxurious and luxurious treatment, and this is also the fundamental reason why the giant company can complete the integration with high efficiency all the way.
"Is this the Starkiller Base Project? It's much bigger than I thought!"
The giant flapping-wing aircraft where Paul is located has landed inside a Starkiller Base under construction.
The Starkiller and the Death Star are not much different in appearance. They are still based on a star as the basic appearance, but the internal construction process and technical difficulty are much higher than before.
If the Universal Corporation develops the Starkiller Base by itself, it must first dismantle the Death Star and study the internal principle structure.
Even if it is in the most ideal state, it will take 5 years. If it is carried out under the current conditions and normal state, it will take 20 years.
But Leon doesn't want to wait so long in vain, so he sent Paul to complete the task of stealing the technical information of the Starkiller Base.
"Yes, the area we are in now is the main gun port of the Starkiller Base. The bottom of the 20,000-kilometer-long tunnel is the source of power that is enough to destroy the star system."
While responding to Paul, Qiansihu also cast his eyes on the bottomless abyss. It won't be long before it will be thrown into the "Star Wars" universe battlefield.
One shot is launched to destroy the core galaxy area of ββthe empire!
Paul took a deep breath and recovered a little before continuing, "Such a huge project must be very troublesome."
"The construction of the project is not too troublesome, but the demolition caused by selecting the right planet is quite tricky."
Qian Sihu smiled bitterly: "We destroyed no less than 20 star systems just to select the right planet, and messed up the orbits of the stars there."
"In order to compensate the local civilized population, we can only promise to provide them with a new home and preferential welfare policies for universal trade."
"Some of these wealthy demolition households settled in Ideal City through connections and means, and those who were almost there went to Reach, and the worst could live near Kaitan in the Dune universe."
"The migration of new civilized species during this period is the most troublesome matter, and the logistics department has had a lot of headaches for this."
The resource replacement and population flow processing caused by the demolition are the biggest hidden costs behind it.
As for the manufacturing engineering of the megastructure, thanks to the high AI automation of the giant enterprise and the convenience of deformable metal, it is not so troublesome.
Hearing this, Paul also shook his head in a helpless way. He hoped that these civilized species would not accept his toast and would just throw neutrons to kill them and put an end to it.
Unexpectedly, the attitude of these aliens was particularly good. They aimed at the giant enterprise and hugged it. Relying on this wave of demolition benefits, the entire civilization took off collectively.
"Thank you for your hard work."
Paul held it in for a long time and could only say helplessly.
The Universal Giant Enterprise has always been clean and neat in fighting, and has basically never fought a large-scale stalemate.
Only in maintaining stability in the rear and coordinating the various civilizations, it has put a lot of effort.
As a grassroots soldier who has participated in the counterinsurgency and rear suppression operations, Paul knows very well how terrifying the difficulty of managing the universe faced by the Universal Giant Enterprise is.
Their boss Li Ang can start this huge super civilization machine and drive the huge Universal Giant Enterprise. He is already a god-like politician.
Born a political animal, a leader of a unique level, this is the best interpretation of Leon!
"Fortunately, most of the engineering links have been completed. If nothing unexpected happens, we can deliver the project on schedule."
Qian Sihu said with a sense of relief.
These days, in order to rush to build the giant structure of the Starkiller Base, he and his giant enterprise employees have spent a lot of energy on this.
Paul stared at the Starkiller Base that was about to be completed, and suddenly thought of something, then turned his head and asked Qian Sihu:
"I heard that both the Death Star and the Starkiller Base need Kyber crystals, but we don't have so many Kyber crystals as energy drive cores, what should we do?"
In Paul's impression, just building an ordinary Death Star requires a lot of Kyber crystals, otherwise the Galactic Empire would not be so crazy about exploiting crystal resources.
Now the Universal Corporation does not have control over the mines that can produce Kyber crystals, so where can the crystals be used to drive so many Starkiller Bases at the same time?
In response, Qiansihu just smiled slightly: "We don't need to use Kyber crystals to drive Starkiller, because we have other substitutes."
Qiansihu patiently explained to Paul.
The main operating principle of the Starkiller Base is to absorb stellar energy and dark energy, and compress it into phantom energy and shoot it out. It happens that the principle of [Falling Star Spear] is the same.
So in terms of manufacturing the Starkiller Base, we can completely use the construction experience and process of the Falling Star Spear. Although the final result is that the Starkiller is not as good as the Falling Star Spear.
But it is also very similar to the original Starkiller Base, at least it is more than enough to beat the Imperial Army.
After listening, Paul nodded thoughtfully. If this is the case, then give the Universal Corporation a little more time, and it can completely mass-produce the Starkiller Base.
A giant weapon that can destroy a star system, the deterrence of giant companies is getting stronger and stronger!
Just when Paul wanted to visit the Starkiller Base with Qiansi Huduo, David suddenly received an urgent message from the front-line headquarters.
His face sank, and he said to Paul seriously: "Paul, it seems that we have to end the vacation early, you have work to do!"
Three hours later.
Paul left the factory star system of the 004 "Halo" universe and returned to the front-line base headquarters of the 007 "Star Wars" universe urgently.
In the conference room of the headquarters, he met the members of the Rogue One team.
When Captain Cassian Andor saw Paul, he was like seeing a savior, and rushed to him anxiously and said: "Paul, this time we can only rely on you for help!"
"What's going on?" Paul asked with a frown.
"It's Darth Vader! He took Princess Leia away. The Tantive IV was captured by the nearby Executor when it passed Tatooine."
"Princess Leia will soon be taken back to the Death Star for interrogation by Vader. We don't have much time left!"
Captain Cassian was in a panic. The longer Princess Leia was imprisoned by the Empire, the more likely the location of the Rebel Alliance headquarters would be leaked.
The current Rebels do not have enough power to fight the Death Star. The Battle of Scarif two months ago caused heavy losses to the Rebel Alliance.
And an admiral died. Now they have less than a hundred fighters left!
After hearing Cassian's words, David couldn't help but sympathize with the Rebel Alliance.
It seems that the Battle of Scarif did seriously damage the Rebels. When the battle just started, the Rebel fleet still had several light frigates and hundreds of various fighters.
And a pretty good cruiser, the Raddus.
As a result, the Rebels now have less than a hundred fighters left, and with this little air force, they can't compete with the Imperial Army at all.
The Rebel Alliance, forced to come to ask the Universal Corporation for help in rescuing Princess Leia.
Logically speaking, the Rebel Alliance fought with the Corporation in the Battle of Scarif to fight against the Galactic Empire, and took the initiative to sacrifice themselves to help the Corporation divert the attention of the Executor.
When the other party is in danger, it should help, but from the perspective of the overall situation, now is not the time for the Corporation to dispatch a large-scale force.
After all, the Starkiller Base is still under construction, and before it is officially completed, the Universal Corporation is not suitable for a full-scale war with the Galactic Empire.
"We have to ask our boss about this."
After that, David contacted the headquarters of the Ten Thousand Worlds Base and explained the situation here to Leon.
After thinking for a while, Leon agreed to help, but he could only dispatch a small number of combat troops to avoid alerting the enemy.
[Let Paul take charge of this matter, and let him choose which helper he wants. γ
Leon gave the order.
According to the original plot, Princess Leia would meet her brother Luke Skywalker during her arrest, and then the brother and sister would escape the Death Star together.
But the emergence of the Universal Corporation has had a great impact on the Star Wars universe.
Leon is not sure whether the captured Princess Leia can still meet her brother Luke Skywalker.
If this guy goes to Mandalore to watch the fun, it is not certain.
So Leon decided to let Paul take action personally to ensure that the Rebels rescued Princess Leia.
This is also a reward for Admiral Raddus who sacrificed himself to cover the smooth retreat of the Dreadnought. Otherwise, the Universal Corporation might have already gone to war with the Empire.
After Leon finished speaking, Paul also nodded and expressed his willingness to take on this new task, and Captain Cassian was immediately relieved.
In his eyes, Paul is still the omnipotent Force warrior. As long as Paul takes action, there is nothing he can't do.
Immediately, Captain Cassian told Paul about the action plan he had already planned: "We have an Empire cargo shuttle that can take us to Tatooine."
"If we are lucky enough, the Executor will stay there for a while to replenish supplies, and we can take the opportunity to sneak up and rescue Princess Leia."
After listening to Cassian's hastily made temporary plan, David and Paul frowned at the same time. This was too outrageous no matter how you looked at it.
If the Executor doesn't choose to stay on Tatooine, then they will have no choice but to follow them all the way to the Death Star!
But now that the situation is urgent, they have no better idea for a while, so they can only act as a doctor and lead the team to rescue people as soon as possible.
"Okay, I'll bring two more people with me. Plus you Rogue One members, we should have almost enough manpower for this rescue."
Paul knew very well that it was best to bring fewer people with him in this rescue operation to be able to rescue Princess Leia, so he decided to bring the Master Chief and Qini with him.
Now Master Chief John 117 is already a ceiling role among Spartan warriors. He has completed no less counter-insurgency missions in various universes than Paul.
With the help of the Master Chief, this operation will definitely go much smoother.
"That's great. As long as you are willing to help, this matter won't be difficult!" Captain Cassian grinned excitedly.
Regarding this operation, Paul does not intend to ask the world's giant companies to provide him with much off-site help, as this will easily alert the enemy.
At this stage, the world's giants still have to concentrate their efforts, actively prepare for war, build Starkiller Base, and strive to achieve results on the frontal battlefield.
Small local quarrels cannot change the general trend.
Immediately, Paul left the headquarters conference room, contacted the Master Chief who was on duty in the 006 "Transformers" universe through the transmitter on the center console, and explained the situation.
"I'm sorry, John, for disturbing your idle duty life, but I really need your help now, and I hope you can come as soon as possible."
[Of course, I'll be here soon. γ
The Master Chief is a man of few words. He never understands what rejection means. As long as it is a task assigned by the superiors, the Master Chief will unswervingly carry out the task.
And this time is no exception.
As for Qini, Paul doesn't need to waste any words. They are old combat partners and have already gotten along well with each other. Naturally, she is indispensable for this operation.
When he and Qini went to the logistics department to prepare to select equipment and weapons, Paul met Pani and Sam. After learning about this, the two said with concern:
"Paul, if you need it, we can bring the entire expedition fleet over to support you at any time. Let me tell you secretly that I still have the authority to call a Hyperion."
"That's right! I have a very close relationship with Optimus Prime and Bumblebee. As long as you give the order, I can bring the Transformers to help you solve your troubles at any time!"
Sam patted his chest and said.
Seeing these two friendly combat partners, Paul shook his head dumbfounded. He didn't want them to make mistakes because of himself.
Using public equipment for personal use is a serious crime!
"No need, it's just a small matter. Master Chief, Qini and I can handle it. Just wait for me to return victoriously."
Paul knows that the giant companies in the world are getting closer and closer to the decisive battle. At this critical time, the presence of the giant companies should be reduced as much as possible.
There was a battle on Scarif before, and now there is an uprising on Mandalorian. If another large-scale battle breaks out on Tatooine.
No matter how slow the Galactic Empire reacts, it should still realize that there is a powerful force that is secretly controlling forces across the galaxy to rebel.
What's more, the world's giants have exposed so many powerful battleships in front of Darth Vader and Tarkin.
Even if a giant company temporarily shows weakness to the Imperial Army, there is no guarantee that Palpatine will not start focusing on the research and development and manufacturing of Starkiller Base in order to secure a hand.
Whenever the Imperial Army builds the first Starkiller Base, it will bring huge trouble to the world's giants.
So it's better to keep a low profile as much as possible and not cause trouble to the headquarters.
"You just stay at the headquarters and wait for orders. When Starkiller Base is completed, we will have plenty of opportunities to join forces to fight together."
"But before that, I will find a way to let the Rebel Alliance distract the empire so that they have no intention of paying attention to our situation."
Paul seemed like a mature big brother, speaking earnestly to the two people in front of him, but in fact, he was even one year younger than Pani, who had just graduated from the academy.
As for the Master Chief, he is even younger. He started fighting when he was only eight years old. He is not yet eighteen years old, but he is already a leader in the Spartan army!
