Start a Core Pod

Chapter 1251 Choice (it’s really depressing that people are coming up the mountain again)

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

Staring at Count Dooku fiercely, Palpatine once again released the powerful dark force. He was determined to make Count Dooku take the blame, so it was naturally impossible to give him a chance to speak. As a former Jedi Master, Count Dooku is naturally not weak in strength. He is also holding on to his lightsaber to support him. Palpatine, on the other hand, had no intention of relaxing at all. On the contrary, he increased his strength and must kill Count Dooku completely!

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

 “Wait, wait, what do you mean?”

Palpatine turned his head in surprise and looked at Duanmuhuai standing next to him.

 “He is a traitor, I must destroy him...”

 “Okay, actually I don’t care about this.”

Duanmuhuai lightly interrupted Palpatine's defense.

"You know, I don't care much about these trivial troubles. As I said to 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 ability, it won't matter. It may be successful. But... who told you to use psychic powers in front of me without permission? "

What's the meaning?

Palpatine was stunned when he heard Duanmuhuai's words, but before he could react what was going on, Duanmuhuai's right hand suddenly grabbed hard, and then Palpatine's head exploded in an instant. And his headless body just collapsed to the ground, motionless.

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

 Fortunately, I didn’t eat anything just now.

 “Huh…huh…”

At this time, Count Dooku was panting heavily, sweating coldly, and cheering secretly in his heart. Fortunately, he had the self-knowledge to surrender to Duanmuhuai early, otherwise he might really be killed by Palpatine. Got it! After all, as his apprentice, Count Dooku also knew that Palpatine was ruthless and not a good person!

Fortunately, I submitted a petition to Duanmu Huai, otherwise he would be the one who died right now!

Thinking of this, Count Dooku looked at Duanmuhuai with grateful eyes, but what he didn't expect was that Duanmuhuai actually saved him not because Count Dooku submitted a petition.

Just like what 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 can't kill you with one bite, so who cares.

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

 Strictly speaking, to be honest, Duanmuhuai looks down on the so-called Jedi and Sith users of the Force in this world. Because from the perspective of the Inquisition, almost 99% of these people are not psykers.

 Because...they are too weak!

To be honest, even burning firewood for the Golden Throne is not enough!

This is just like An, as a mage, watching a magician perform magic. He may find it interesting, but he will never think that the magician can pose any threat to himself. In Duanmu Huai's view, the Force users in this star field are not even qualified psykers. Real psionic users will only sneer at them and ignore them completely.

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

This is like drunk driving. It does not mean that you are drunk driving if you drink. It mainly depends on the value. If it is above the warning value, you will be sent to jail directly, but if it is below the warning value, you will not be taken care of.

 In the past, those Jedi Knights who blew in front of Duanmu Huai did not reach the warning level, so Duanmu Huai basically would not be treated as an illegal psyker.

However, when Palpatine used thunder and lightning and shouted "infinite power", the psychic energy he used had exceeded the warning value, so as a judge, Duanmuhuai naturally had only one thing to do.

 That would be the execution of illegal psychics.

This is like taking drugs. If you secretly take it in private and I can't see it, it might be fine. But if you insist on taking it in front of me, what's wrong? Do you look down on the Inquisition? It's not like Duanmuhuai didn't tell Palpatine about the dangers of psykers and the responsibilities of the Inquisition, but you just pretended not to hear it, right?

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

 “Thank you for your help.”

At this moment, Count Dooku also got up from the ground, and expressed his gratitude to Duanmuhuai in shock.

 “You’re welcome, he asked for it.”

 Duanmu Huai waved his hand.

 “So, what are you going to do next?”

"this………"

Hearing Duanmuhuai's inquiry, 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!

 The result is good, now the emperor is dead!

 What to do tomorrow?

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

“Actually, there is no way.”

But fortunately, Duanmu Huai had no intention of cheating him.

"What can you do?" "Of course, it's quite simple. You just need to dress up as Palpatine and you'll be fine. After all, we are the only ones who know that Palpatine is dead, aren't we?"

"this………"

Hearing Duanmuhuai's suggestion, Count Dooku was stunned. Indeed, this method is simple and crude, but does it seem to be really useful?

It’s just that you can’t be embarrassed, right?

"Is it really possible?"

 “Sure, Ann, change them.”

 “Okay, no problem, Mr. Knight.”

Hearing Duanmuhuai'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, and then After a moment, the appearances of the two parties suddenly changed. Palpatine's body became Dooku's, and Count Dooku became Palpatine!

"this………"

Looking at his body in surprise, Count Dooku was quite surprised. Although he knew that the Tribunal had many strange methods, this time it still shocked him.

The Inquisition actually knows this method?

“Illusion can only maintain the appearance, but it will still be released if someone disables it... However, it seems that no one in this star field can dispel the magic.”

 After An finished casting the magic, he also explained it somewhat. Of course, as An said, no one in this star field understands magic at all, and it is even less possible to dispel the magic.

 “I understand, thank you for your explanation.”

Count Dooku first looked at An gratefully, bowed his head to thank her, then straightened up and coughed lightly.

 “Come here!”

Soon, after hearing Count Dooku's order, the guards who had gone out came back again. They were also surprised to see the body lying on the ground. Count Dooku snorted coldly, pointed to the body of Palpatine (Illusion) on the ground, and said.

"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! Block all news and cannot hinder tomorrow's celebration!"

As Palpatine's apprentice, Count Dooku imitated his master well, and the guards did not suspect it. They quickly carried the body away according to Count Dooku's order, and waited until the guards came again After leaving, Count Dooku breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the three people again.

 “I’m sorry, Your Majesty the Inquisitor.”

"I don't care, but are you sure this is okay? You must know that if you do this, you will never be able to appear in front of others as Count Dooku in the future."

"It doesn't matter."

 Count Dooku shook his head.

"I understand what you mean, although I don't want to admit it, but now, my master has indeed created this Galactic Empire. Once the news of his death is spread, the entire Galactic Empire will inevitably fall apart. And I hope to change this anyway. Everything happened, so even if I need to continue living as someone other than myself, that’s okay.”

 “That’s okay, it depends on your determination.”

Seeing that Count Dooku had already made up his mind, Duanmuhuai didn't say anything. After all, he chose his own path, but...

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

"What is it? Your Excellency, Judge?"

 “Things about the Jedi Temple.”

As Duanmuhuai spoke, he stared at Count Dooku.

"I originally planned to tell Palpatine, but I guess he wouldn't agree. Now that Palpatine is dead, it's the same thing with 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. But if there are hidden dangers, they are not without them, and that is the Jedi and Sith.

 Duanmu Huai knows how Jedi warriors practice, but in his opinion - this is simply stupid!

Whether Jedi or Sith, they all like to go to extremes, and once they go to extremes, they will become the target of evil gods. Ordinary people are like this, and psychic users are no exception. Whether it's the Sith's practice of indulging their emotions and desires, or the Jedi's practice of suppressing all human nature, from Duanmu Huai's point of view, they are essentially the same. stupid.

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

What? What if they don’t want to protect humans? Are you kidding, look at the current composition of this star field, it seems like they still have a choice. The Independent Federation and the alien alien race were completely destroyed by the Inquisition. If they don't protect humans, how about protecting stones?

 Speaking of this, Duanmuhuai looked at Count Dooku and smiled.

 “You shouldn’t refuse my request.”
