Chapter 278 The Battle of Geonosis (3) - The Arrival of the Jedi Order

When the Force illusion dissipated, what appeared in Count Dooku's eyes was Skywalker walking towards him with a lightsaber.

The will to survive burned like a raging fire in Count Dooku's heart. Ignoring his severe injuries, he gritted his teeth, endured the excruciating pain, and struggled to his feet.

His body swayed as if he might collapse at any moment, but his gaze remained unusually firm.

He slowly turned his body, looking around, not missing a single detail.

Finally, his gaze settled on the huge rock above their heads.

The rock resembled a small mountain, teetering on the brink of collapse, as if it would fall with the slightest external force.

Count Dooku stretched out his hand with difficulty, concentrated all his Force, and struck the rock's support point like a bolt of lightning.

With a loud crash, the boulder lost its support and began to slowly slide down.

However, Skywalker was no ordinary man; his reaction speed was extremely fast. Almost the instant the boulder began to fall, he noticed Count Dooku's little trick.

Without hesitation, he raised his left hand, and a powerful surge of Force erupted forth, stopping the boulder from falling.

The boulder hovered in mid-air, as if firmly held by an invisible hand.

Upon seeing this, Count Dooku inwardly cried out in alarm, knowing that his plan had failed.

But he didn't give up; instead, he scrambled and crawled toward the exit.

He staggered, his body constantly colliding with the surrounding objects, but he didn't care about any of that. He only had one thought in his mind—to escape!

However, Skywalker would not let him escape so easily.

He raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a cold smile, and then used the Force again, crushing the huge rock into countless fragments as easily as crushing a piece of tofu.

The fragments rained down from the sky, striking Count Dooku hard as he fled.

Count Dooku was caught off guard and was struck by stone after stone, his body falling to the ground repeatedly, his back being smashed and mangled.

Despite the excruciating pain, Count Dooku continued to run desperately toward the exit.

Finally, he ran out of Skywalker's sight and disappeared into the darkness.

Once the traveler was certain that Count Dooku had escaped, he slowly lowered his left hand.

The rocks that were originally suspended in the air fell down as if they had lost their support, creating large craters around him.

"Have you taken enough pictures?" Skywalker suddenly said to thin air.

Before the words were finished, a figure slowly emerged from the darkness.

It was Kirsage, who was tossing a Dimensional Cube in her hand. Count Dooku's terrified expression was clearly visible inside the cube, as if he were still fleeing Darth Vader.

"So, do you want a salary?" Kirsaji was reluctant to part with the very professional actor in front of him.

Skywalker shrugged; for him, keeping his mother alive was all he could ask for.

Kirsa took out a Dimensional Cube and tossed it to Skywalker.

Skywalker caught it and looked into the Dimensional Cube. Inside was a high-end TIE fighter jet, Darth Vader's ride.

Skywalker looked up, but Kirsaëns had vanished.

At the same moment, the Obi-Wan Kenobi, which had already been riddled with holes by TIE interceptors, finally received support from the Jedi Order.

Moreover, a massive army of clones arrived alongside the Jedi Order.

Dozens of cheerleader-class cruisers, like a group of steel behemoths, sailed majestically toward Geonosis.

These cruisers carried a total of 200,000 clone soldiers, as well as a large number of armored vehicles, making them awe-inspiring and imposing.

However, since the Jedi-class cruisers had not yet officially entered service, the Jedi Order had to make temporary adjustments.

They ordered several cheerleader-class cruisers without clone soldiers to form a watch fleet to block possible attacks from the revived star destroyers and eight axial gun frigates.

These cruisers quickly adjusted their course, stood ready, and formed a solid defensive line.

“They are adept at space warfare; the enemy is obvious.” Master Yoda stood on the bridge of a Cheerleader-class cruiser, staring at the enemy warships displayed on the tactical console.

His keen eyes scanned the enemy fleet's formation and deployment, analyzing their tactical intentions.

Meanwhile, the cheerleader-class cruisers carrying clone soldiers turned around without hesitation and headed straight for Geonosis.

They will be divided into two batches, entering the atmosphere of Geonosis in turn to safely deploy 200,000 clones and various vehicles onto the planet's surface.

This is a difficult and crucial task, which is related to the outcome of the entire battle.

As the surveillance fleet drew closer, the Revival-class Star Destroyers reacted swiftly, releasing a large number of TIE interceptors and TIE bombers.

These fighter jets, like a flock of fierce falcons, were propelled by their plasma engines at full speed as they hurtled toward the enemy.

These pilots are not ordinary pilots; they are all true ace pilots.

When they were created, they had already experienced thousands of intense battles in the virtual battlefield created by Kirsaj using necromancy technology. This rigorous training enabled them to handle various complex situations with ease in actual combat.

Among the many TIE series fighter jets, one stands out in particular.

Its appearance is similar to that of the TIE bomber, but its fuselage is smaller.

The fighter jet quietly flew ahead of all the other fighter jets, as if it were the vanguard of the entire formation.

At the same time, the Cheerleader cruiser, responsible for space operations, quickly opened its hatches, and the V-wing fighters that had been urgently deployed poured out like a swarm of bees.

These V-wing fighters were agile and swift, quickly forming combat formations to intercept the TIE fighters.

Meanwhile, the 12 turbo-laser cannons mounted on the cheerleader-class cruisers in the vigilant fleet were equally formidable, pointing their massive muzzles at the axial gun frigates.

The gunboat realized that its own aircraft formation was outnumbered, so it quickly took action.

The drones on several gunboat frigates quickly switched to air combat mode and, under the unified control of the warships, formed a tight formation, like an impregnable defensive line, charging forward together with the TIE fighter jet cluster.

Meanwhile, the remaining gunboats increased the deployment range of their own drones, promptly filling any potential blind spots and ensuring the safety of the entire fleet.

The sharp decrease in the number of drones used for data transmission has affected the accuracy of battlefield data.

Nevertheless, the Revival-class Star Destroyer reacted swiftly, raising its guns and its turbolaser cannons adjusting at an astonishing speed after receiving firing data from the axial gun frigate.

In an instant, a green burst of energy beam streaked across the void like lightning, striking directly at the deflector shield of the Cheerleader-class cruiser.

At the same time, the vigilant fleet, which had already completed its rough data calculations, also opened fire without hesitation.

Countless red beams of light, like a dense rain of arrows, swept past one side of the axial gun frigate.

However, the first round of fierce firing failed to cause any damage to the axial gun frigate; the red beams seemed to merely flash in vain in the void.

However, the counterattack from the axial gun frigates came with extraordinary speed. The eight axial gun frigates, in pairs, quickly locked onto their targets.

Immediately afterwards, the arc transmitter fired, and dazzling arcs of electricity shot out like silver snakes.

This unprecedented bombardment left the Galactic Republic captains speechless. Before they could even react, four Cheerleader-class cruisers had already been struck by electric arcs.

One of the unfortunate cheerleader cruisers was severely damaged, with the electric arc directly interfering with its core reactor.

After a brief silence, the unfortunate cruiser suddenly let out a deafening roar, then exploded in a burst of fire, scattering into countless fragments in all directions.
