Chapter 786: Adventurous Spirit

"If the intelligence is correct, Matt Horner is not the match for Wilhuff Tarkin. I mean, if Wilhuff Tarkin is indeed commanding the battle on Terminus," Helmut Zemo said.

Tang Xiao looked at the Holographic Projection of Zemo, who now had a beard and looked much older, and asked, "What do you think about this matter?"

"In fact, if the positions of the two were switched, then my conclusion would also be reversed." Zemo said, "They are essentially the same type of person, I mean, in terms of combat. If we talk about other things, Tarkin possesses many traits that Matt Horner does not, such as being astute, smooth, cunning, and ruthless."

"So I've also said that Wilhuff Tarkin's achievements will be boundless in the future. He will be one of our greatest enemies in the Fourth Civilization," said Tang Xiao. "I can understand your point; Matt Horner and Tarkin are the types who fight prepared battles... Give them whatever resources you, and they will fight at that high level. This is not like Sev'rance Tann; I think even if you only give her a Frigate, she would definitely be thinking about how to take down a Battleship."

"Indeed, then, is the war on Terminus still set to continue?" Zemo asked.

Tang Xiao smiled lightly, leaning back at an angle in his Red Comet's seat, and said, "Do you know, Zemo? Although you are skilled at calculating people's intentions, this time, you are mistaken. In the previous battles, whether it was the Republic's 19th Army in the Javin Defense Battle or those Rebels on Lothal, they did not truly pose a challenge to us..."

"Are you saying that Matt Horner has potential?" Zemo chuckled.

"I have heard about his past experiences, so you are mistaken. If Matt Horner were to go mad, his adventurous spirit is no less than that of Sev'rance Tann," said Tang Xiao.

Otherwise, in the storyline of "StarCraft," he would not join Jim Raynor's Raiders to resist the tyranny of Mengsk and lead the Hyperion to carry out Raynor's fantastical Military Operations.

"And what if he fails?" Zemo asked.

Tang Xiao's eyes flashed with murderous intent, "Then it proves that the Fourth Civilization is far from being able to compete in the Galaxy. We will shrink back to the Moddell Sector and wait for more changes. Of course, as the Governor, my strategy cannot have mistakes. The only one who can make mistakes is Matt Horner... Therefore, in order to explain to the people, I can only borrow his head."

Zemo was silent for a moment and said slowly: "So, will I have such a day?"

Tang Xiao raised his sword-like eyebrows and said, "If I answer 'no,' I think you'll be very disappointed, won't you? So, let's not play these games anymore; you should see through Matt Horner's psychology even better than I do."

However, unlike other Hutts, he is actually suffering from a very serious skin disease.

The Hutts do not wear clothes because the thick fat on their bodies regulates temperature, and their rough skin can even resist the fire from Low-Power Blasters. Furthermore, since there is no distinction of gender among the Hutts, clothing is not a necessity for their society.

However, this Hutt's skin cannot provide these functions and can easily bruise. That's why he wears clothes.

This has also become his unique trademark.

The Hutt Clan Leader of the Gorensla Family - Oruba Gorensla, a figure who elevated the Gorensla Family from obscurity directly to a significant power able to enter the Hutt Ruling Council.

"If it weren't for Ziro informing me about a major business opportunity, usually a person like you wouldn't get to meet me," Oruba said lazily.

He certainly knew that the person on the other end of the Holographic Projection was a Naval Admiral, but the Underworld and the Military are two completely different worlds. The Hutts are not afraid of others' Fleets, so naturally, he would not be polite to Matt Horner.

Matt Horner stands straight, but his tone is extremely cold. "Help me take down Terminus, what are your conditions?"

"Why should I help a failure? Huh? The actions of the Fourth Civilization on Terminus are already doomed to fail. After the Galactic Republic retrieves its forces from Bothawui, it will be your turn to face the consequences, and you haven't even touched the corner of the Capital City, Fermos." Oruba said lightly.

"I have enough strength to conquer the Capital City of Fermos, but what I lack is simply time," said Matt Horner.

Seeing his terrible negotiation skills, Mira Han, who joined the negotiation via another Holographic Projection, added, "You need to understand, Oruba. The Republic's occupation of Terminus is not a good thing for you."
