In the Imperial Palace in Cosanlo, Palpatine roamed in the dark, and he sensed something was wrong.Once a sanctuary for Jedi knights, he twisted it with the Dark Force and transformed it into his own royal palace, protected by elite red-armored Praetorian Forces.But these days, he always felt like a Jedi ghost was watching him, a cold gaze spreading over his back, like a snake swimming on the smooth marble floor.But every time I turned around, the back was empty, and even in the glass jars that were used as decorations, the corpses of the Jedi Masters were closed.The more this happened, the more uneasy he became, the Rebel Alliance had not heard of where they were harassing them for several days, and Anakin, who usually didn't like to come to the Imperial Palace very much, came to greet him frequently these days, and spoke as politely as a ceremonial robot.At the same time, other Sith warriors have rarely been seen lately, and there are things that are not right with the reports and taxes of the imperial governors.And the most important factor that made him suspicious was actually the revelation of the Force, the dark side of the Force, which had already had the upper hand, the tide had now receded too much, and the Life Force suddenly sprung up.Hell, in Palpatine's memory, he couldn't remember any strong people who believed in the Life Force today, those old schools should have died long ago, and besides, what happened to the black sun......
Despite the doubts in his head, the facts are in front of him, which leads to his fact that he is not in a good mood these days, and he also ordered the army to impose a stricter curfew on the capital Star Kosanlo, and wantonly hunt down people who do not like him, and bring them to him to be executed by him personally.He was accused of being a 'rebel sympathizer', but in fact he was an ordinary person, and Palpatine himself knew it, but he wanted to kill people to relax.Having just absorbed the lives of hundreds of people, he calmed down a little and walked through the dark corridor to the top office of the Imperial Palace, a pyramid-like building.Looking at the mechanical city that looks like a beehive below the line of sight, and the sunset that is about to set on the edge of the skyline, the emperor of the Galactic Empire suddenly has a bad premonition, as if the sunset like a candle in the wind is a portrayal of his life."
Humph!"
With a sneer, he raised his hand and unleashed the Force, reversing Kossanlo's rotation and turning the clock back from dusk to the scorching midday sun.It seems that he thinks that his powerful power can make the empire flourish, and he doesn't need to care about some vague omen, as long as he has power, then he can change his life against the sky.After thinking it through, he suddenly laughed with satisfaction, and in the empty office, there was only a duck quack."
Buzz!"
At that moment, the sound of lightsabers being lit up rang out in the corner of the room, along with the trademark sound of rough breathing, heavy footsteps falling on the smooth ground, getting closer and closer.Palpatine, or Darth Sidious, did not look back, he shrunk under his black hooded robe, stood in front of the window and looked at the scenery outside, and said confidently, "Is it finally here?"
Darth Vader, my apprentice, I've been waiting for you to show me your fangs today, so many things have become out of my control, and that means my favorite toy has betrayed me.Of course, I still have some questions......
Are you taking me for a fool?
Can your mentally retarded plan really overthrow me?
Quack quack, you were pathetic from the beginning, and today, Skywalker, you will die. ”It wasn't like he was looking for communication, but like he was informing him of an established reality, and he thought Anakin was going to die, but he was just telling the truth a few seconds in advance, and then making it happen.Almost as soon as he finished speaking, Sidious, who was facing away from the assassin, suddenly turned around, and with the Force lightning in his hands that had been secretly accumulated, he immediately launched an attack on Darth Vader, who was holding a lightsaber in his hand.Force Lightning is his favorite skill, the most direct use of the Dark Force, which is very primitive, but also very powerful, capable of turning people into a puddle of black ash in the midst of screams.Lightning struck the armor on the Black Knight's chest, where there was a control panel that Sidious knew was his apprentice's weakness.Anakin's body was torn apart, all assembled by black armor and the Dark Force, and the armor's life-sustaining system panel was on his chest.As soon as the armor stopped, Anakin's cardiopulmonary function would immediately stop, and even his brain would be shut down, and even with the support of the Force, he would not survive three breaths.In the glare of lightning, Sidious smiled cruelly, his rotting gums showing how happy he was.The control panel exploded, and the firelight pushed the black warrior upside down, and the strong electric current made him convulse against the wall, and the aroma of barbecue suddenly diffused.Darth Vader, however, did not say a word, not even scream.In this way, the emperor had some unfulfilled intentions, he did not want to kill his apprentice immediately, he wanted to destroy Anakin's mind and life, and let the rebel love in the pain of his soul.So, he put away the spurting electricity in his hand, and the Black Knight fell to the ground in billowing smoke, Sidious intending to say something piercing in the final seconds of Anakin's life."
Quack!
It turns out that you are the only one, and what about your apprentice Star Slayer?
”Darth Sidious had no eyebrows, and only a few pieces of skin could move on his pale and wrinkled face, which allowed him to smile bloodily: "After he was killed for betraying me, I know that you secretly collected his genes and created many clones, why didn't you bring them today?"
”"......"
The black warrior lying on the ground was still silent, if it wasn't for the fact that he was still struggling to get up, the emperor would definitely think that he was dead."
You could have been my successor, I really thought that after my wish for immortality was fulfilled in the galaxy, I would take control of the Force itself, transcending all reality, and at that time, I would hand over the empire to you, and let you use it to take the path of my eternal life, how about it?
Do you regret hearing me say that now?
”Sidious pursues great power, and therefore desperately uses the dark side of the Force and the power of Sith sorcery, but the purpose is actually quite simple, that is, he wants to live forever.Therefore, he felt that immortality was also attractive to other people, and now he said it, wanting to hear Darth Vader's wail of regret, after all, the rebel not only lost the chance of eternal life, but was about to die, isn't this a big psychological gap?
He tilted his head and listened, smiling as if an old urchin had done a prank, and couldn't wait to see the results.
