Chapter 560: Betrayal
Glynn-Beti looked at her Padawan in disbelief. She could never have imagined that it was her Padawan who stabbed her with a Lightsaber!
Ulu Ulix looked horrified, he quickly threw away the Lightsaber, and grabbed his hair with both hands, "No! No! What the hell did I do?!"
"You have made a choice." Darth Malthael patted him on the shoulder, and the force of life began to act on the wound of his severed arm. Ulu Ulix only felt the pain of his wound immediately It disappeared, and even felt a little cool.
With a plop, Ulu Ulix knelt down in front of Darth Malthael, his face was dull, but soon, his expression was replaced by a ferocious expression, and the originally Peaceful Light Side of The Force quickly turned into Violent Darkness!
"Go and receive treatment, my new General. Then, use iron and blood to get everything you want!" Darth Malthael stroked his head and said, "You will have wealth, status, owning an Army, you will have something that you never expected to have! Just because you made a choice, this is your reward."
"It is my honor, my Lord." Ulu Ulix bowed his head deeply.
"Before that, you should realize how great the power you are about to serve is, and how wise the choice you make is." Darth Malthael turned around, and from Justin Reeves's hands, took Aiden Bok's head, and crouched down in front of the headless corpse.
Under Ulu Ulix's terrified eyes, Aiden Bok's wounds began to heal, and his head grew back! Darth Malthael used some bio-gel to help immobilize his not-quite-fixed head, and finally, resurrection.
Aiden Bok stood up again. Although it seemed that his head was still a little unsteady, he did open his eyes again! Even Glynn-Beti, who was killed by Ulix just now, was resurrected!
However, this resurrection was not a pleasant process.
"Despicable Sith! You don't want me to live, why don't you let me die now?!" Glynn-Beti almost broke down and yelled.
Aiden Bok was more direct. He grabbed his neck and tried to unscrew his head again.
This Command was actually sent through the Command Channel of the Fleet! In other words, this is an official order, not those spam messages sent through public channels!
Almost everyone in the Republic Fleet was stunned for a moment.
At this time, in the Command Channel, several Jedi Knights appeared on the screen.
Jedi Padawan Ulu Ulix was wearing the General Uniform of the Confederacy of Independent Systems, and stood on the bridge in high spirits, while the two Jedi masters Glynn-Beti and Aidan Bok stood behind him with pale faces.
"The era of the Republic is over! When did the elites in the Inner Rim care about the life and death of our civilians!? Today is the time to overthrow all of this!! Put down your Weapons and surrender immediately, let us build a new order together!!" Ulu Ulix said aloud.
Seeing such a scene, Admiral McGlenn of the Republic almost grabbed the Communicator and issued an order to the entire Fleet: "Notify all Warships! Retreat immediately! Retreat immediately! This is the last order! Retreat immediately!! After this, all Commands sent from the Command Channel are invalid! Invalid! Also, cut off the Command Channel for me! Now!"
According to the regulations when the Great Republic Army was founded, when Jedi masters go out with the army, their status is equivalent to that of generals, and they have higher status and authority than any other General.
However, it's clear that these Jedi Masters have all betrayed the Republic!!
If they were allowed to issue a surrender order as the Supreme Commander of the Fleet, then the Republic's Fleet might really surrender.
The hasty retreat began immediately. The Warships of the Republic began to take back the Starfighters and the routed Ground Troops, discarding all Heavy Equipment and even the wounded, and then retreated in a disorderly manner without a unified and coordinated organization, leaving the gravitational circle of Bespin and entering Hyperspace Lane.
The chaotic retreat soon turned into a complete rout. The Fourth Civilization Fleet made an all-out attack, followed closely by the Republic's Fleet and fired wildly. In the previous battles, the Galactic Republic Fleet fought steadily, even though they suffered a lot of hidden losses, and finally lost 18 Warships, but in this defeat, they lost 26 Warships in just 4 hours!
There are even 4 Venator-class Star Destroyers who have long lost their fighting spirit due to heavy losses before. Now they have received the surrender order from their own Jedi Knights and simply surrendered.
This huge Fleet consisted of 60 Venator-class Star Destroyers at the time of the attack, but only 12 Warships were left to return to the Haven, the Headquarters of the 19th Legion.
