Chapter 1251 Choice (It’s so depressing that someone has to go up the mountain again)

"Your betrayal is unforgivable! Dooku! This is the punishment you deserve!!"

Staring at Count Dooku fiercely, Palpatine once again released a powerful dark force. He was determined to make Count Dooku bear the blame, and naturally would not give him a chance to speak. As a former Jedi Master, Count Dooku was naturally strong, and at this moment he was holding his lightsaber tightly and struggling to support himself. Palpatine did not intend to relax at all. On the contrary, he increased his strength and made sure to kill Count Dooku completely!

  However, at this moment, a big hand suddenly stretched out from behind and grabbed Palpatine's head!

"Wait, wait, what do you mean!"

Palpatine turned his head in surprise and looked at Duanmu Huai who was standing beside him.

"He is a traitor, I must destroy him..."

"Well, I don't really care about that."

Duanmu Huai interrupted Palpatine's defense calmly.

"You know, I don't care much about these trivial troubles. Just like I told you before, the Inquisition only cares about the survival of mankind. Even if you want to kill me, it doesn't matter. Anyway, with your abilities, you can't succeed. But... who told you to use psychic power in front of me without permission?"

  What do you mean?

Palpatine was stunned when he heard Duanmu Huai's words, but before he could react to what was happening, Duanmu Huai's right hand suddenly grabbed with force, and then Palpatine's head exploded instantly, and his headless body collapsed to the ground, motionless.

Seeing this scene, Ann and Mary's faces froze slightly, and then relaxed.

Fortunately, I didn’t eat anything just now.

“Hoo…Hoo…”

At this time, Count Dooku was also breathing heavily, sweating profusely, and secretly cheering in his heart. Fortunately, he had self-knowledge and surrendered to Duanmu Huai early, otherwise he might have been killed by Palpatine! After all, as his apprentice, Count Dooku also knew that Palpatine was a cruel and ruthless person, not a good person!

  Fortunately, he had submitted his letter of allegiance to Duanmu Huai, otherwise he would be the one dead now! !

Thinking of this, Count Dooku looked at Duanmu Huai with gratitude, but what he could not imagine was that Duanmu Huai saved him not because Count Dooku had submitted a letter of allegiance.

Just like he said to Palpatine before, it doesn't matter if you want to kill me, you can't do it anyway, just like a mite bite can't kill a person, so who cares.

But you should never use psychic powers in front of me!

Strictly speaking, to be honest, Duanmu Huai looked down on the so-called Jedi and Sith in this world, because from the perspective of the Inquisition, almost 99% of these people were not considered psykers.

  Because... they are too weak!

To be honest, you're not even good enough to burn firewood for the Golden Throne!

This is just like An, as a wizard, watching a magician perform magic. He might find it very interesting, but he would never think that the magician could pose any threat to him. In Duanmu Huai's opinion, the force users in this star field were not even qualified psychics. Real psychics would only sneer at them and not take them seriously at all.

But just now, the psychic power used by Palpatine exceeded this limit.

This is like drunk driving. It doesn't mean that you are drunk driving if you drink. It mainly depends on the value. If it reaches above the warning value, you will be sent directly to jail, but if it is not below the warning value, no one will care about you.

Before, the Jedi Knights were not able to blow enough air to reach the alert level in front of Duanmu Huai, so Duanmu Huai basically did not treat them as illegal psychics.

However, when Palpatine cast lightning and shouted "infinite power", the psychic energy he exerted had already exceeded the warning value, so - as an inquisitor, Duanmu Huai naturally had only one thing to do.

That is to execute illegal psychics.

  It's like taking drugs. If you take them secretly without my knowledge, it might be OK. But you insist on taking them in front of me. What's wrong? Do you look down on the Inquisition? It's not like Duanmu Huai didn't tell Palpatine about the dangers of psykers and the duties of the Inquisition. You just pretended not to hear it, right?

So Duanmu Huai made a decisive decision and sent Palpatine on his way.

"Thank you very much for your help."

At this moment, Count Dooku also crawled up from the ground and expressed his gratitude to Duanmu Huai in shock.

"You're welcome. He asked for it."

Duanmuhuai waved his hand.

"So, what are you going to do next?"

"this……………"

Hearing Duanmu Huai's question, Count Dooku was stunned for a moment before he reacted.

Tomorrow is the celebration! And according to the original plan, Chancellor Palpatine will announce the transformation of the Galactic Republic into the Galactic Empire tomorrow, and he will become the Galactic Emperor!

As it turned out, the emperor is dead now!

  What to do tomorrow?

Count Dooku was also dumbfounded for a moment. He stared blankly at Palpatine's headless body and felt a headache.

"Actually, there is no way."

Fortunately, Duanmu Huai didn't intend to keep him in suspense.

"Do you have a plan?" "Of course, it's pretty simple. You just need to pretend to be Palpatine and everything will be fine. After all, we are the only ones who know that Palpatine is dead, right?"

"this……………"

Upon hearing Duanmu Huai's proposal, Count Dooku was stunned. Indeed, this method was simple and crude, but it seemed to be really useful?

But I can’t change my appearance?

"Is it really possible?"

"Sure, Ann, switch them."

"Okay, no problem, Mr. Knight."

  Hearing Duanmu Huai's order, An nodded, then stared at Count Dooku and snapped his fingers. Soon two magic circles appeared under the bodies of Count Dooku and Palpatine. Then a moment later, the appearance of the two sides suddenly exchanged. Palpatine's body became Dooku's, and Count Dooku became Palpatine!

"this……………"

Looking at his body in surprise, Count Dooku was quite astonished. Although he knew that the Inquisition had many strange methods, this one still shocked him greatly.

The Inquisition even knows this method?

"The illusion can only maintain the appearance, but it will be removed if someone removes it... But it seems that no one in this star field can remove magic."

After An performed the magic, he also gave some explanation. Of course, as An said, no one in this star field understands magic, so it is even more impossible to dispel the magic.

"I see, thank you for your explanation."

Count Dooku first looked at Ann with gratitude, bowed his head to thank her, then stood up and coughed lightly.

"Someone is coming!!"

Soon, hearing Count Dooku's order, the guards who had gone out before came back and were shocked to see the body lying on the ground. Count Dooku snorted coldly, pointed at the body of Palpatine (illusion) on the ground, and spoke.

"He betrayed the Galactic Republic, colluded with the rebels, and tried to murder our distinguished guest! He has been executed on the spot, take him away! This matter must not be spread outside! Block all news and do not interfere with tomorrow's celebration!"

As Palpatine's apprentice, Count Dooku imitated his master very well. The guards had no doubts and quickly carried the body away according to Count Dooku's orders. Only when the guards left again did Count Dooku breathe a sigh of relief and look at the three people again.

"I'm sorry, Your Excellency the Inquisitor."

"I don't mind, but are you sure this is okay? You should know that if you do this, you will never be able to appear in front of other people as Count Dooku again."

"It's ok."

Count Dooku shook his head.

"I understand what you mean. Although I don't want to admit it, my master did create this Galactic Empire. Once the news of his death spreads, the entire Galactic Empire will inevitably fall apart. And I hope to change all this, so even if I need to continue living as someone who is not me, it's no problem."

"Well, it depends on your determination."

Seeing that Count Dooku had made up his mind, Duanmu Huai didn't say anything. After all, he had chosen his own path. But...

"Oh, by the way, there is something I want to explain to you."

"What is it, Your Excellency the Inquisitor?"

"About the Jedi Temple."

Duanmu Huai stared at Count Dooku as he spoke.

"I originally planned to tell Palpatine, but I guess he wouldn't agree. Now that Palpatine is dead, it's the same if I tell you..."

In fact, after most of the alien races were wiped out and his natural disaster progress entered the final stage, Duanmu Huai's mission in this star field was basically completed. However, there are hidden dangers, and that is the Jedi and Sith.

Duanmu Huai knew how Jedi Knights trained, but in his opinion—this was simply stupid!

Whether it is the Jedi or the Sith, they like to go to extremes, and once they go to extremes, they will become the target of the evil god. Ordinary people are like this, and psychic users are naturally no exception. Whether it is the Sith's practice of indulging emotional desires, or the Jedi's practice of suppressing all human reason and common sense, in Duanmu Huai's view, they are essentially the same stupidity.

So... instead of letting you mislead the young people, it is better to send all these so-called Force-sensitive people to the Inquisition and let them fight to protect humanity!

  What? What if they don't want to protect humans? What a joke, look at the current composition of this star field, it seems that they still have a choice. The independent federation and the alien alien races were completely destroyed by the Inquisition. If they don't protect humans, then will they protect the stones?

Having said that, Duanmu Huai looked at Count Dooku and laughed.

"You won't refuse my request, will you?"
