The Empire begins with the Fourth Scourge.

Chapter 2201: Despicable and shameless behavior

  2202. Despicable, shameless, and obscene behavior

Eastern part of the Milky Way, Rafa Galaxy, Planet No. 5.

A huge fleet including 10 Imperial-class Star Destroyers, 2 Knight-class Star Destroyers, 1 Tracker-class aircraft carrier, 10 Victory II-class Star Destroyers, and more than 40 small and medium-sized warships including Aquitens-class light cruisers and Night Watcher-class frigates has surrounded the planet.

Half of the warships had already entered the planet's atmosphere. There were still a lot of debris falling from the sky, including the wreckage of TIE/LN fighters, the wreckage of Ghost fighters, and many armor belt fragments that were bombed off from the main battleships.

It was obvious that a fierce battle had just taken place here, and now the battle was over.

Soon, a pitch-black Imperial-class Star Destroyer left the hyperspace channel and arrived at the planet Rafa V. The black Star Destroyer did not stop, but rushed directly into the planet's atmosphere and arrived at the previous battlefield. There was an extremely huge pit in the center of the battlefield, which was bottomless and huge in size, and looked extremely weird.

The black shuttle flew out from the hangar under the Star Destroyer, circled the pit twice, and then landed on the ground.

There were already a large number of Imperial Stormtroopers on the ground investigating everywhere, and many archaeological experts were busy everywhere. A middle-aged officer with an admiral badge was inspecting the pit site accompanied by dozens of guards and experts. Seeing the black shuttle landing, the admiral's face changed, and he quickly led everyone to greet it.

The shuttle door opened, and ten clone soldiers in black combat armor walked out first. They lined up on both sides, welcoming the arrival of their real master.

A beautiful woman in a black robe and tight black combat uniform walked out of the shuttle. She looked at the admiral in front of her and said calmly, "Lieutenant General Bards... Oh, when did you get promoted?"

Bardes did not dare to be negligent, and immediately stood at attention and saluted, saying: "High Inquisitor Hydra, because this operation was rather hasty, the Imperial military did not have time to appoint a new commander here, so I was temporarily promoted to admiral to command this fleet to encircle and destroy the Infinity supercarrier of the Principality of Dawn."

Hydra looked at the black soil full of the smell of gunpowder that was lifted up by the violent explosion and said in a cold tone, "Oh? It looks like your mission has failed... Bards... Colonel."

A lot of cold sweat flowed down Bards's forehead. Hydra demoted him to colonel with just one sentence, which made him extremely scared and desperate. However, facing the senior judge of the Tribunal, he still did not dare to neglect him in the slightest.

Hydra is one of the four senior judges under the Supreme Judge of the Tribunal, Black Hole, and among the four, Hydra is the most powerful and most trusted by Black Hole. The other three are rarely directly responsible for combat affairs, and mostly deal with internal affairs.

  Therefore, it is no exaggeration to say that this beautiful woman who is as venomous as a venomous snake is the second-in-command of the tribunal!

Compared with them, he, a temporarily promoted admiral, was really nothing!

The Hydra came to an extremely huge pit in front of it and looked at the spectacular scene in silence.

The pit was so huge, with a diameter of nearly one kilometer, and hundreds of large construction machines were abandoned around it. The pit was so deep that you couldn't see the end at a glance. Some Imperial Stormtroopers were riding in hovercrafts to check inside the pit.

"What happened?" Hydra asked.

Admiral Bards... No, the colonel wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said carefully: "It was the super aircraft carrier of the Principality of Dawn. They broke through the border defense line and rushed into the planet's atmosphere while we were still gathering the fleet. Then they dropped a large number of engineering machinery and began to dig frantically... We immediately ordered the warships that had arrived to attack, but they were no match for the super aircraft carrier. We could only use fighter jets to bomb those engineering machinery, but with little success. After that, this super aircraft carrier flew directly down, used a tractor beam to grab the pyramid they dug, and then cut the pyramid in half and pulled it up as a whole..." Hydra looked at the big pit in front of it and realized what was going on.

"Uproot the entire ruins and take them away?" Hydra murmured to herself. She just felt it was extremely absurd and even a little unbelievable in her heart.

  This is totally unreasonable! The Saruru ruins in the Rafa system are clearly within the territory of the Galactic Empire. You said you came here to dig secretly and even took some things away, that's fine, it's understandable. But what about you packing up the ruins and taking them away?

I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen such a shameless person! It's simply shameless, despicable and vulgar!

Anger built up in Hydra's heart, and her voice became colder and colder. "So, that Infinity-class supercarrier just ran away with an entire relic right under your nose? Major Bardes."

Has he been demoted to major? Major Bards's legs went weak, and he trembled as he said, "The Infinity-class supercarrier... must have used technology unknown to us. After the fleet arrived, I immediately deployed defenses in the synchronous orbit, but it had just flown out of the atmosphere and had not yet escaped the gravity well, but it actually started its hyperspace engine directly and disappeared..."

"Directly enter hyperspace within the gravity well?" Hydra frowned. She remembered the intelligence from the previous few days - the Eternal supercarrier, also an Infinity-class carrier, left Chiss Territory and appeared on the planet Dawn just two days later.

In this way, the situation is very obvious. The Principality of Dawn has mastered the unknown hyperspace navigation technology and has taken the lead in using it on the Infinity-class super aircraft carrier!

  Don’t underestimate the tiny difference between jumping inside or outside a gravity well. For space warfare, this tiny difference brings an incomparable advantage in mobility!

"Continue to track the movements of the Infinity supercarrier and make sure to find out where this battleship has gone. In addition, we must also confirm the movements of Severance Tann and find out whether she is on the Infinity!" Hydra ordered without turning his head.

"Yes... yes... I'll do it right away, right away." Major Baddes nodded hurriedly.

"I didn't tell you." Hydra waved its hand gently. Two clone soldiers in black armor and red robes stepped forward and handcuffed Major Bards' hands behind his back. "Former Imperial Navy Admiral Bards-Dofrey, you are suspected of dereliction of duty, treason, and bribery. You are arrested immediately and sent back to the Inquisition for trial."

"Sir... Sir... No... This is none of my business!!" Amid Bads's howling, he was dragged back to the spaceship by two clone soldiers.

……

At this time, on the planet Kraku, Shepard and the others were also stunned when they saw the third Infinity-class supercarrier Infinity. They all looked at the pyramid hanging under the battleship in silence.

  That’s right, a plastic pyramid!!

This huge square cone-shaped building is suspended beneath the Infinity supercarrier, stabilized by a large number of steel cables and robotic arms, and firmly grasped by the supercarrier's six powerful tractor beams.

The square pyramid has a diameter of 400 meters at its widest point, and its total length is estimated to be more than 3000 meters. It also looks like it is cut in half! Hanging this plastic pyramid below makes the Infinity supercarrier look like it is pregnant.

I haven't been too busy these days, so I started to slack off at work... I have time to play games when I get home. Although I don't play Black Myth because I'm not good at it, Empire of the Sun 2 is still very interesting...
