An Unscientific Mechanic

"Mr. Erso, welcome." The future boss who delivered his resume yesterday, Erso was the first to arrive in Anaheim.

"Mr. Vasty. Gui'an." Galen Erso was really a talent when he was young.

"Mr. Erso, I remember that your special session is crystal synthesis and energy compression, right? I have a project here and I need you to host it in the future." Ian was still very excited to see this big guy, especially if he could be in A huge pit was dug in a combat system, and it has not been discovered yet.

"What kind of project is it?"

"According to my theory, if I want to make a super super huge laser cannon, I need a super good energy supply facility, right. At present, the best energy supply and storage energy carrier I have found is A kind of crystal, kyber crystal. I think it has something to do with your expertise.

Now, I need to build a super large laser cannon that uses Kaiber crystal as an energy carrier. I hope you will lead this project. "

"Sir, what do you want such a cannon for?" Erso's attitude became much colder.

"I said to maintain peace, do you believe it?" Ian said that he thought it was funny, but it was a sincere answer.

"The principle is that I don't want to believe it, but looking at your expression, it seems to be true." Erso's expression was still very cold.

"The expression doesn't tell me anything, Mr. Erso. There are more people who can act. Why do you think the Republic is crumbling now?"

"Usually, I will answer this kind of question because of the corruption of officials, the bureaucratization of the government, etc. Then you tell me something, please tell me directly. I'm listening."

"Well, the root cause is that the guns of the Republic are not strong enough. Although the Republic has a long history, it does not retain the ability to destroy the world."

"This view is the first time I have heard of it."

"It's the same as educating children. Most of the time, parents have to set a good example for their children, be reasonable, understand the truth, and teach by example, right?"

Erso thought of his wife and children without a single word, his expression softened, and he nodded.

"The child made a mistake and the situation was not serious. The first time he made sense, he was punished. The second time he made a mistake, the second time he made sense and punished. The third time he made a mistake, he could only use a certain amount of violence. Pause, reason with him, don’t listen, continue fighting. Of course, you don’t have to assume any premise with me. This is just an example. It’s good to understand the spirit. In the present Republic, corruption and bribery are the norm. Too serious, appeal. It needs to be enforced. I'm sorry, the Republican Guard may not even be able to deal with the private bodyguards of the corrupt officials. Even if it is serious enough to be a Jedi warrior, it is only the arrest of the mastermind. Five years later, he is a good guy again.

One crop after another, hundreds of years later, it's what it is now. Without the sword of Damocles hanging high on the heads of the group of members, they would ride on the Republic to dominate. "

"If you sell strong enough weapons to the Republic, how can you ensure that these weapons will not be abused? How can you ensure that these weapons will be used to maintain peace, instead of throwing themselves into war and persecuting civilians."

"Brother, we are weapons merchants... If you think that the Republic has waged an unjust war... then I will sell the weapons to the just side." Ian gave the pacifist a vague glance. "Peace is a good thing. Of course, I refuse to give the republic this kind of dull peace. Although Speaker Palpatine has been very active in cracking down on corrupt elements in the past few years, it can't stand up to the current general atmosphere of the republic."

"So you are expecting to use powerful weapons to arm the Republic, and use force to strengthen the army to reverse the Republic's atmosphere?"

"Of course not... From the perspective of the Republic, I am simply developing new weapons. It is the task of the Speaker to reverse the trend. I am anxious to develop new weapons in order to gain more voice in the conflict with the separatist forces. That's it." Ian looked up at Erso with a slightly surprised look. "Don't you know that I had a conflict with the technical alliance last year?"

Erso shook his head awkwardly.

"Well, it's finally, I want to make sure that the Technical Alliance cannot afford to completely tear my skin and attack Naboo directly."

"I see... So is there a design draft? I think it's a little bit... When will I go to work?"

"The faster the better. The work site is a hidden mineral galaxy. The final product of the project is this, the SK-1 Starkiller Orbital Combat Space Station. The secondary product is this, the DS-1 Death Star Orbital Combat Space Station. The process product is This, super-heavy-duty boosted laser array, dead light." Ian handed Erso several storage devices of the entire series.

Erso checked the estimated technical parameters of these three projects, and cold sweat gradually appeared on his forehead.

"Sir, are you serious?" Ersuo knew that this weapon would be relatively large, but the giant space station for planetary operations with a diameter of thousands of kilometers was too exaggerated.

"I'm serious. And I firmly believe that this kind of weapon that is enough to destroy the world is the cornerstone of peace."

For example, the earth is actually made up of tens of thousands of nuclear warheads, safeguarding the peace and development of the overall environment.

If the Wuchang does not have nuclear weapons capable of destroying all mankind, we still don't know what can be done among countries.

"You must be crazy."

"No, I'm sober, Mr. Erso, this world is crazy." Ian clicked on the screen on the office wall.

"This is a small part of the trouble I am facing." In the picture, hundreds of warships of the Technical Alliance are assembled in the orbit of Geonosis. "I think you know the power of these warships very well. If they conduct an orbital bombardment of Naboo, Naboo will be flattened within a few hours."

"I am vaguely aware of your worries, Mr. Vasty, and I have to say that your claim that your weapon protects peace has temporarily convinced me. I am looking forward to the birth of these products, but I don't want to see them put into use." Smiled and shook his head. "It's really a contradictory idea."

"This is the meaning of the existence of these projects, absolute deterrence. If used, it is probably an endless situation." Ian stretched out his hand. "Welcome to join, Mr. Erso."

Erso also shook hands with Ian with a smile on his face.

"Then next, sign these non-disclosure agreements." Ian took out several non-disclosure agreements. "I have some little secrets in that galaxy that I don't want others to know."

"...What you have seen and heard is not allowed to be said?" Erso read the first confidentiality agreement.

"I have a few secret factories and a convenient enough production method there, I don't want others to know."

"...The location of the galaxy is kept secret, I understand that." Erso simply signed the second agreement. "What does this guarantee mean?"

"I don't want you to leave a fatal weakness in a product for my own use. But I hope you leave such a weakness in export-oriented products."

"understood."

"Hello? Kycilia? What's the matter." Ian answered the sudden ringing call and made a few gestures, expressing sorry.

"Padme will leave tomorrow to go to Utapa to mediate the conflict. I think she needs protection."

"Utapa?" Ian called up the information. "Isn't it suspected of being occupied by the Banking Union?"

"Already occupied? Padmé, there is suspected of being occupied by the separatist forces... Oh, she said, it was to investigate this matter."

"It's really risky, let a Nibelungen go with her. Who is her guard?"

"A few veterans and maids."

"There is no Jedi?"

"No."

"This is really... or else you or Smith will protect her?"

"You have the heart to let us two weak women do this kind of war work?"

"Yes, let me go, you help me stare at the company."

Listening to the contented voice of the opposite, Ian hung up the phone.

"I seem to have heard something terrible... Do you have to go out as the CEO of a large company?" Erso always felt strange.

"Oh, I actually work a part-time Jedi." Ian raised the sofa in the air and put it down again.

"Oh, that's the case, how many people are there in my team. One person can't complete design and development of this scale."

"Now there are more than 8,000 scientific research robots and more than 1,000 researchers of average level. Several researchers of fairly good level. When you come, most of the personnel will concentrate on your group to work."

"I understand."

"I will hand over the work to the vice president in the future, and she will arrange the handover and the flight there for you."

After the handover, Ian and Padmé embarked on the journey to Utapa. As for the bodyguard team of more than a dozen people, the clone commando team of thousands of people, and tens of thousands of combat robots... Ignore them for the time being.

"I thought that as a staunch pacifist, you would reject a security team of this size, and you would not carry so many gadgets..." Ian watched Padmé wearing decent tights, belts and close-fitting tactical backs. There are many small props in my mind, such as wiretap, wire for unlocking, mini ion grenade, mini flash bomb, several daggers, a sleeve sword fixed on the wrist, a small blast gun pinned to the back and so on. He looked straight at the face.

"This is prepared Ian. This is my first time on mission. In case something goes wrong, I hope I have the ability to protect myself." Padmé packed up the props and put on a tolerant congressman's costume. She couldn't see it at all. She was actually fully armed when she came out.

"It's good if you are happy." Ian remembered. In the original work, Padmé also carried a gadget with him, handcuffing himself like a play.

The Nibelungen-class escaped from the speed of light one day away from Utapao, and then dispatched several reconnaissance planes that applied the stealth technology of the Sith Concealer to set off in advance to detect the target planet.

"It's really a strange planet. There are no living things on the surface. All living things live in huge pits with a depth of more than five kilometers." Ian checked the reconnaissance intelligence. "Are we really looking at a planetary creature?"

The intelligence shows that in terms of wildlife, there is almost a pothole. And not to mention wildlife, even the local residents have all kinds of aliens.

"According to the data, this planet was originally a refuge. People who fled from various planets gathered here, forming a tribe. Each pothole is a city. After joining the Republic, this planet becomes a whole. The capital is here." Padmé pointed to a pothole city on the map. "Let's go directly here."

Ian and Padmé repeatedly confirmed the reconnaissance data. There was no separatist fleet nearby, and no separatist troops were found.

Padmé raised her brow. "Then who are they in conflict with?"

"Go down and take a look first."

Ian and Padmé took Padmé's standard security team, transferred to the Naboo King's spacecraft, and landed on the tarmac on the cliff of the pothole.

According to the previous report, the local tribal elders have been waiting on the tarmac.

"Hello, we are the special envoy of the parliament. We are here to investigate the armed conflict that occurred before you here.

"Armed conflict? No, it's just that a group of people were making trouble a few days ago and they were subdued by our local security personnel. That's it."

"Can we meet those people?"

"They, after being subdued, we were stuffed into a spaceship and sent away. As you can see, the conditions here are too difficult for us to raise."

Seeing the elder's faintly rushing look, Ian and Padmé looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders vaguely.

"In this case, we won't bother, and we will reply to the parliament as such."

"That's the best, thank you for coming."

In this way, Padmé and others were driven back to the spacecraft before they got out of the tarmac.

"Ian, what do you think?"

"My lord~www.novelmtl.com~ There must be something strange in this matter."

"..."

"I think we need to observe again. The ground and walls in the distance of the apron show signs of renovation, and some of the ground has signs of ablation, which are all caused recently. There are signs of heavy dragging on the ground, although they did Cover up, but I didn't do a good job." Ian explained what he had just seen a little bit by combining the pictures taken by the hidden camera with the analysis of the program.

"And that elder, he was very anxious to drive us away, and it turned out to be out of goodwill. His anxiety was not because he was afraid that he would be in trouble, but because he was afraid that we would be involved." Brows furrowed.

"Yes, this elder did say that for our sake. Do you have any plans? Padmé."

"We ran back quietly at night, and I saw there were human settlements there, but we needed to be groomed."

"Too risky." Ian rejected the proposal. "We are here to watch. I left a few spy satellites with hidden mobile devices there. I think they will run out of the hole by themselves shortly after we leave."
