Chapter 563: The Test of the Jedi (1)
Darth Malthael looked forward, on this Barren Moon, he could see almost nothing, except desert and desert, icy desert.
The dark gray dust and dark gray sky make up everything in sight. The Detector in the hands of a Soldier of the Fourth Legion did not move at all.
In fact, if Thull Wulain hadn't found relevant clues, even if a spaceship flew here and conducted a comprehensive scan of the moon, it probably wouldn't have found anything.
At this time, Thull Wulain stopped and said, "According to the data I found from the Ancient Holographic Recorder, the entrance is here."
Justin Reeves looked at the small mound less than 100 meters high in front of him, frowned and said, "Judging from the topographical structure of this place, it is impossible for ground buildings to exist. Then it can only be an underground mausoleum, and It's covered in dust."
He raised his wrist while talking, pressed a series of buttons on his Omni Tool, and then continued: "But... just now I have asked the computer of the spaceship to help us calculate the climate and environment on this moon, and I got an interesting phenomenonif we look at the climate on this moon, this mound is bound to form."
"You mean, even if we level this mound, after a long time, the wind will still blow dust from other places to form a mound here?" Darth Malthael asked.
"It looks like this." Justin Reeves said: "The unique low pressure here will form a sinking cyclone belt, which is not strong enough to accumulate dust. If there is really a mausoleum under the mound, It can only be said that this is a wonderful design. Doesn't the owner of the tomb want the things in it to be taken out?"
"No. We don't know what Lucien Draay thought before he died, but he should hope that these things can be used by the Jedi Knights, otherwise, he would not leave clues." Thull Wulain said.
"If that's the case, it's easy. Just blast the mound!" Justin Reeves said.
"No." Darth Malthael waved his hand, "The dust is very fine, if we forcefully explode it, it may cause a large amount of dust to be poured into the mausoleum, and the all-pervasive dust will destroy the tomb."
"Then... shall we dig?" Justin Reeves made a digging motion.
"Soft and fine dust, you dig and collapse at the same time, in the end, I'm afraid it will be the workload of hollowing out the entire mound." Darth Malthael shook his head and said: "Since Lucien Draay hopes to make the whole mound here, things are left to the Jedi Knights, so we have to look at the problem from the perspective of the Jedi Knights. So what choice will a Jedi Knight make?"
He stepped forward, raised one hand, palm facing the mound, and muttered to himself, "Feel... the guidance of The Force... If the Sith swim against the current, the Jedi swim down...it's not that we walk into the mausoleum, but let this mausoleum take us in..."
He entered a very wonderful meditative state, as if every time he meditated on the Dawn Planet, he became one with the surrounding nature.
This is his biggest difference, even if he has already fallen deeply into the abyss of the Dark Side, he will still meditate like this, and grow rapidly in this kind of meditation.
He learned from Darth Plagueis and Darth Tenebrous successively, and he naturally understood that this method was completely different from the Sith. The Sith naturally have meditation methods, but they will never be integrated with nature in this way.
Therefore, Darth Malthael attributed this to the same as his Death Power, a gift from an unknown source, maybe it was the existence that made him come to this world.
No matter what, he doesn't have the ability to find out the answer now. If that's the case, then let's enjoy the benefits it brings.
In front of Darth Malthael, a vortex slowly appeared. The speed of this vortex was not fast, but it still pushed away the surrounding dust and kept rolling up the collapsed dust, unexpectedly forming a passage.
Not only that, but there was also a suction force, dragging everyone towards the center of the vortex.
Justin Reeves and other Soldiers of the Fourth Legion subconsciously braced themselves to resist the suction, but Darth Malthael shouted: "Don't resist! This is the first test!"
As he spoke, he allowed his body to be slowly pulled in by the vortex, sinking into the endless sand and dust.
After about a minute or two, Darth Malthael felt that the surrounding dust had dissipated and the sea was calm. Then he looked up and found that he was standing in a domed hall. In the center of the hall stood a 20-meter-tall statue.
This statue is a man with short hair, wearing a Combat Uniform covered with some Armor that is very old in this world. His eyes are like gods, looking majestically at the sky ahead, holding a lightsaber, ready to go look.
"Lucien Draay..." Darth Malthael said to himself, "After 3,000 years of waiting, the Sith are visiting. I don't know how you will feel about it?"
The whirlwind behind him slowly pulled the others in from the hidden exit, and the Soldiers of the Fourth Legion immediately dispersed and entered a fighting state, alerting every direction around them.
"Okay, we came in normally, there shouldn't be any danger here." Darth Malthael said: "This is a test of trust."
"Trust?" Thull Wulain asked.
"That's right, trust in the Bright Side, trust in colleagues. If it is the Lord of Sith, he will never let himself be in such a state of being manipulated by others, so he will definitely resist, and once he resists, he will not be pulled in, the impatient Sith Lord may choose violence again." Darth Malthael said lightly: "But the Jedi Knights will not, they will definitely not come here with hostility, and naturally will not resist. This Device is not so much the use of Technology as it is the control of people's hearts."
"There seems to be only one road here, could it be a trap?" Thull Wulain said looking at a dark and deep passage in front of the hall.
"The tomb of the Jedi Knights will never use anything like a trap, even the Jedi Covenant of Extreme Evil." Darth Malthael said, "The Jedi Knights are upright before they determine that they need to use Force against you, and they don't hurt the innocent. Let's go."
