The Test of the Jedi (Part 2)

Who knew that they had just taken two steps when suddenly one of the Soldiers of the Fourth Legion felt a slight click under his feet! He stopped in his tracks instantly, and said in a deep voice, "Captain, I seem to have stepped on something."

Darth Malthael, who was just saying that the Jedi Knights would not set traps, blushed, and turned his head to check. Who would have thought that just as he turned around, he could only hear a shaking of the ground, accompanied by a low roar!

During this strong vibration, countless gravels fell down, as if it was raining!

"Look! Statue!!" a Soldier shouted.

Darth Malthael immediately looked up, only to see that the huge statue of Lucien Draay was slowly moving, and the fallen rubble fell from the joints of the statue.

Not only that but the passage in front of them was immediately blocked by a boulder!

"This is a Droid!" Thull Wulain looked at the scan results on the universal tool and said, "Master Governor, your judgment is indeed wise, the Jedi Knights really want to use this dignified way to defeat the invasion!"

Darth Malthael sighed, suddenly feeling so embarrassed, this is just like a tragic scene where a horse's ass was slapped on a horse's leg...

"Fire! Destroy it!!" The Soldiers of the Fourth Army immediately raised their Weapons and fired.

They unanimously took down the stubby M-22 Eviscerator from behind, maximizing the powerful firepower in this relatively closed space.

Boom! Boom! Boom!! The powerful jagged shrapnel poured down on the Droid, smashing the rocks on the Droid's surface into flying debris, revealing the gray-black, even somewhat rusted Armor underneath.

However, such an attack could not shake this huge Droid with a height of 20 meters. Although the Droid's Surface Armor was battered, it did not cause any more damage!

The Droid took a step forward and stepped on the Soldier stepping on the mechanism with its huge feet.

The Soldier stepped on the mechanism, and he finally decided not to move, because he was not sure what other effects would be caused by releasing the mechanism. Since it was the mechanism that I stepped on, then I should bear the result by myself.

However, at this moment, a powerful Force pushed him away violently, and with a bang, the foot of the Droid crushed that piece of ground, and at the same time, the transmission machinery running below was also crushed.

The Soldier just now looked up at Darth Malthael, gave a grateful Military Salute, and immediately threw himself into the battle.

"The formation is dispersed, in groups of two! Fire in batches to attract the attention of the Droid!" Justin Levi's orderly gave instructions. Under his command, more than a dozen Soldiers of the Fourth Army immediately dispersed, and the two of them grouped and took turns firing, testing the Droid's targeting mechanism.

Fortunately, this Droid did not have long-range firepower. It just punched and kicked with its huge body. These Soldiers with amazing physical fitness ran and evaded at an extremely fast speed, but there were no casualties.

Justin Reeves ran quickly, then suddenly kicked into the wall, turned sharply, and the Droid punched him where he had just landed. While Reeves was turning sharply, the M-22 Eviscerator in his hand aimed at the Droid's arm joints and fired several times. At the same time, the other hand had already released a Grenade from the slot on the back.

Then he saw the moment when the Droid stepped down and threw the Grenade over, and the Droid just stepped on the Grenade!

Boom!!! The violent explosion exploded at the bottom of the Droid's feet, and the Droid staggered, but immediately regained its footing, still unharmed!

"What is this Droid made of?! How could it be so hard!" Thull Wulain cursed.

Darth Malthael didn't join the fight, he just dodged the occasional attacks from the Droid that rushed at him. He had tried it with a Lightsaber before, and the Armor of this Droid couldn't even be pierced by a Lightsaber! It can be seen that this is definitely a Droid made entirely for those who are sensitive to The Force!

If so... what would the Jedi Knights do?

Darth Malthael frowned and pondered, and he diffused his spirit into The Force again to sense the guidance of The Force.

Sure enough, he felt The Force running circuit after circuit inside the Droid!

Force! This Droid is powered by The Force!

Darth Malthael was shocked, this is also a Taboo Technology - Force Technology! It is a Technology once used by the Lost Infinite Empire and Eternal Empire.

For example, the Star Forge of the Rakata Civilization is a terrifying war machine driven entirely by The Force of the Dark Side. Driven by The Force of the Dark Side, this Super Space Station can almost continuously produce a large number of Warships and Armaments to support a total war!

Unfortunately, the Star Forge was later destroyed.

It is said that some Extremist Organizations of the Jedi Knights also used such Technologies in previous wars, but with the final victory of the war, these Technologies were sealed by the Jedi Knights.

Could it be that there is some information about Star Forge technology buried here besides the Gauntlet of Kressh the Younger?

While Darth Malthael was thinking, he finally discovered how this large Droid worked. He shouted, "Everyone cease fire!"

Then the whole person turned into a puff of smoke and rushed up. When the Droid hit the ground with a punch, he quickly ran up along its arm, and almost instantly came to the Droid's shoulder. He raised his hand and pressed at the back of the Droid's head, at the same time using The Force to slap it from the opposite direction...

A hidden button protected by a weak Force was suddenly pressed, the Droid stopped running immediately, and everything around it returned to silence.

"Sure enough, the original intention of Lucien Draay to design these things is to screen out Sith and Jedi Knights, and then only attack the Sith." Darth Malthael said in a deep voice, "The Sith are aggressive and will never think about how to live in peace with this Droid. Then the result can only be a direct battle with this Droid specially designed to deal with those who are sensitive to The Force! However, he still missed a little bit, since the implementation of the two-person system After the law, The Sith will no longer be as crazy and neurotic as before. That is to say, if this tomb is not found by us, then the Gauntlet of Kressh the Younger may be taken away by others."

"But...the passage is still not open." Justin Reeves went to check the boulder blocking the passage and said with a frown.

"Go and see if you can disassemble the Core of this Droid. I'll study it here." Darth Malthael said.

"Yes!"

Darth Malthael came to the boulder and found that there were hundreds of small holes in the boulder. The size of this small hole seemed to be about the same as the hilt of a Lightsaber. This was another simple Force Mechanism. It seems that Lucien Draay's design is that after the large Droid is cracked, it is only necessary to further screen out ordinary people and those who are sensitive to The Force.

Directly insert the Lightsaber into the corresponding small hole, activate it, and the boulder immediately sinks into the ground, allowing the passage to come out again.

However, at this time, the soft light illuminated the end of the passage. On a stone platform, there was a coffin, and in front of the coffin, an exquisite Gauntlet was floating there, the Gauntlet of Kressh the Younger!!

Darth Marthael walked over step by step, 20 pillars carved with various reliefs were erected on both sides of the passage, an underground river was flowing continuously from the bottom of the passage, and on the surrounding walls, there was a painting, a mural which records various deeds of the owner of the tomb, Lucien Draay, during his lifetime.
