The Fourth Scourge of Star Wars

617. Asajj Ventress

"My lord, I have found a person who has fallen into darkness. She is powerful, angry, and full of hatred for the Jedi Order. I think she should be my assistant and a sharp blade for us to destroy the Jedi Order." Count Dooku knelt on one knee and reported to Darth Sidious in the holographic projection.

"Blade... Jie Jie Jie Jie..." Sidious laughed wryly, "This reminds me of a dead man, Darth Maul. I also called him, 'Blade', in my In front of the master."

Earl Dooku noticed that here he used Teacher (Teacher) instead of Master (Master), and the meaning contained in it was very different.

"Forgive me, my lord. What kind of person is your... teacher?" Earl Dooku asked cautiously.

"He is the most powerful, most knowledgeable, and wisest Sith Lord I have ever seen, but at the same time... the stupidest one." Darth Sidious said slowly, "He put all his energy He has devoted himself to the study of the nature of the Force, and he tried to list the essence of the Force one by one like a mathematical formula. Obviously this is a wrong path, but it can't stop him from becoming extremely powerful."

He glanced down at Count Dooku, and said, "He was obsessed with studying immortality, but he forgot the most important thing in the way of Sith—revenge! So, I killed him. After all, you should know him .”

"Please enlighten me, Lord." Earl Dooku said respectfully.

"Hego Damask II is Darth Plagueis... Jie Jie Jie Jie..." Darth Sidious laughed.

"It's unimaginable that the most important patron of our great cause is also a great Sith lord." Earl Dooku praised.

"He has become the past, and now the Milky Way is our stage!" Darth Sidious opened his hands with a grim expression, "Okay, train your 'sharp blade' well. But you should Clearly, she is only your assistant, not your apprentice. The Sith rule of two cannot be trampled on! Otherwise, I will do it myself to ensure that my apprentice...only one... Jie Jie Jie Jie..."

"I will keep it in my heart." Earl Dooku replied with a bow.

"Let Ventress assassinate Anakin Skywalker and prove her ability! Of course, I don't care about the result of this mission." After Sidious finished speaking, he turned off the communication with his hand.

Count Dooku stood up and walked out of the room.

Outside the door, Asajj Ventress was kneeling respectfully at the door, waiting for his arrival, "I want to follow you and learn the way of darkness... the real Sith lord."

Count Dooku glanced at her, and said lightly, "Come with me."

He brought Asajj Ventress to his meditation place, sat down on the cushion, looked at Ventress and asked, "Have you received Jedi training?"

"My master was once the Jedi Knight Ky Narec, but he was abandoned by the Jedi Order, which eventually led to his death. One of my two lightsabers was given to me by him, And the other one once belonged to him." Asajj Ventress asked respectfully.

"You have accepted the power of the dark side. These two lightsabers are no longer applicable. You should use a lightsaber that can better display your abilities, using...synthetic crystals." Earl Dooku said.

"I will follow your teachings, as long as I can destroy the Jedi Order, I am willing to do anything." Asajj Ventress is indeed very aware of current affairs. After learning that Earl Dooku is the real Sith Immediately after the lordship, she offered her allegiance, at least temporarily.

"I will teach you the way of darkness, and guide you to lead the Jedi Order to destruction, and correspondingly, your life, and even your everything, will belong to me!" Earl Dooku said.

Ventress quickly nodded and bowed, "As you wish, my lord."

The corner of Earl Dooku's mouth raised slightly, and he looked at Ventress with mockery in his eyes. He waved his hand, and two cranked lightsabers floated from the side cabinet. He handed the lightsaber to Ventress and said: " This is the lightsaber of my former apprentice, Komari-Wosa, now it belongs to you, and this is my greeting."

Ventress took the two lightsabers with both hands, with an extremely respectful attitude.

"Your first task is to kill a Jedi named Anakin Skywalker. As far as I know, he has gone to the planet Naboo after the battle on the planet Thule. Raid near the planet Naboo Ohma-D'un, the moon of yours, slaughter the Gungans on it, lure Skywalker out and kill them! The mercenary Derch will also go to cooperate with your actions, don't let me down." Du Count Ku said.

"Yes." Ventress bowed her head deeply, her heart was full of excitement, because she finally became an official Sith apprentice, which was exactly what she dreamed of.

Since her master Ki Narek was killed, she lived in anger and hatred every day. She attributed the death of her master to the Jedi Order. Naturally, she also blamed the Jedi Order's sworn enemy— - The Sith Lord took his direction.

She has always regarded herself as a Sith lord, but now, there is actually a powerful Sith lord who is willing to let her become an apprentice, how can this not make her ecstatic.

However, Ventress didn't notice the cold sarcasm in Earl Dooku's eyes. She didn't notice that even though Earl Dooku did say that he would teach her the way of darkness, he also gave her the lightsaber that had been his apprentice. Everything hinted at the identity of her apprentice, but in fact, from the beginning to the end, Earl Dooku never really said such words.

Christopher Sis Planet, July 17.

The battle on the planet has become increasingly fierce. As the robot army commanded by Worm-Lotham continues to advance to the capital Crystal City, the government of the planet Christopher Sis is also in danger.

The only good news is that the 500 clone troopers led by Alderaan Councilman Bail Organa are holding on to the dangerous area of ​​the eastern suburbs, dragging down the pace of the robot army.

These 500 warriors displayed unmatched combat skills and fearless spirit, and created an unimaginable military miracle. And because of their brave resistance, it also gave the Christopher Sis planetary government some breathing time, and Modisai began to mobilize some militia troops to strengthen the defense.

At the same time, the conflict between the Christophersis and the Croydonians on the planet has intensified. Armed demonstrations and conflicts broke out between the two sides. In order to take into account the political situation, Worm Lostham also had to divide its troops to various places. Support the Croydonian civilians.

The advantage of the population of 35 billion on the planet Christopher Sis began to stand out. It has been a week since the battle started, and the Federation of Independent Galaxies still failed to take down the largest cities including Crystal City.

The Republic has not been idle either. Governor Byluir of the 13th Legion "Iron Spear" belonging to the defense zone of the Christophersis planet has begun to assemble a fleet to forcefully break through the blocked Corellian trade route.

In view of this situation, Worm Lostham had to ask the chairman of the Enterprise Alliance, Passel Argent, for help, asking for more reinforcements, especially heavy equipment.
