Star Wars: Conquest

Chapter 12: 12 The Force is all around



After entering the other medical room, Jon Roberts saw one of his favorite characters from "Star Wars" games. "Revan, it is an honor to be working with you now and just so you know we are in the 25014 and you died in this universe 21416. By the way everyone you know has already died around the same time as you did." Jon Roberts told Revan.

"Commander, why was I released from hibernation?" Revan asked.

"I need your help in training me in the ways of the force and lightsaber combat. Also training in force techniques that are not know about or used by this era's Jedi. I don't want to be a Jedi or Sith, I just want to be a Force-trained warrior and leader." Jon Roberts replied.

"So, if I train you as a Force-trained warrior and leader, what can you do for me?" Revan asked.

"I'll help you find out what happened to everyone that you used to know, and also help you find Force-sensitive people so we can build an Order that follows the way of the force you do." Jon Robert replied.

While Jon Roberts was talking with Revan about what he wanted to do together Xaz came in and told Jon Roberts about some of his military matters that he had thought of.

"Commander, if you want me to help make your military better, we are going to need better armor and weapons. Instead of slug throwers we need to switch to blasters." Xaz said.

"Xaz have you seen the slug throwers in action verse blasters by any chance." Jon Roberts replied.

"No Commander, not the ones that your military uses." Xaz replied.

"Then let's go and see what the difference is so that you can make an informed decision." Jon Roberts said.

"Revan, you want to see what we are working with so you can help out with commanding the troops and instructing the troops how to fight against force-user." Jon Roberts said.

"Yes, Commander and while we are at it, we will train in the Force and start your training in lightsaber combat. It can help your troops seeing force-users in action." Revan said.

While the three men were walking to the hangar, they were talking about the differences between the kinds of armor and weapons. While they waited for Mei to get a transport ship ready, Revan started teaching Jon Roberts about the ways of the force that he had learned about when he was younger while learning in the Jedi Temple of the Old Republic.

Once they were on the transport ship Revan told Jon Roberts that the force is in everything, and the force is all around us. Also, once you can come down your mind with meditating and fell the pull of the force. Once they were off the transport ship, they headed to the military area to see how the Marines were training.

Xaz screamed: "Fall in maggots!"

The Marines started to fall in, and Xaz kept yelling for the Marines to hurry up. Once all the marines were gathered, Xaz told them that they were going to see how a force-user fights and how a non-force-users fights a force-users. Xaz turned to Revan and asked: "Revan are you ready to do what the Commander asked of you and me?"

Revan replied: "Yes, I can."

Once everyone got in a ring around Revan and Xaz and the two started fighting so they could show the Marines how force-users fight and how non-force-users fight each other. They fought for a good hour before they stopped and asked everyone did, they have any questions.

Once the Marines got done asking questions for 30 minutes, Jon Roberts had Xaz take the marines to train on how to fight like Mandalorians, cause from the answers the marines got was that Mandalorians were the only people that could fight the Jedi and Sith one on one.

Jon Roberts and Revan went from the military area to an area away from everything. Once away from everything they started training in the force.

"The Force is a mysterious energy field created by life that binds the galaxy together. Harnessing the power of the Force gives the Jedi, the Sith, and others sensitive to this spiritual energy extraordinary abilities, such as levitating objects, tricking minds, and seeing things before they happen. While the Force can grant users powerful abilities, it also directs their actions. And it has a will of its own, which both scholars and mystics have spent millennia seeking to understand." Revan told Jon Roberts.

After teaching Jon Roberts about the force, Revan calls Mei and asked: "Mei do we have any training sabers made, or do we need to research them?"

Mei response is: "The training sabers are made and ready do you need them delivered to you?"

"Yes, that would be great." Revan replied.

Once the training sabers were delivered to Revan, Jon Roberts and Revan would be training lightsaber combat forms.

"Commander keep your blade up, you want to block but don't overextend." Revan told Jon Roberts after a few days of training with the training lightsabers.

"Revan when are you going to teach some forms of force powers." Jon Roberts replied.

"The first force powers that you're going to learn are Telekinesis, Precognition, Force Augment, and Force Shield." Revan replied.

"I will also start training you in lightsaber forms. Starting with Shii-Cho, then Makashi, then Soresu, then Ataru, then Shien & Djem So and finally Niman in that order." Replied Revan.

"Today we are going to meditate for six hours, then we will start your training in Shii-Cho." Revan said.

"Ok, so let's get started because we are not getting any younger." Jon Roberts replied.

After capturing the smugglers of Rorr and Felissa, in the next week or so, everything returned to calm, and the colony also developed steadily. Revan and Jon Roberts have been meditating and lightsaber combat forms.

The number of mining station built around the gas giant has grown to four, supplying the Mothership with helium-3 fuel for its fusion reactors. However, there are only four modular mining stations in the Mothership. If you want to build a new mining station, you need to build it yourself. Fortunately, there is no shortage of metal resources in the galaxy. At present, some metal asteroids have been taken by the mothership. The ship captured the asteroids, decomposed and refined the asteroids to get the metal out of them.

In addition, three of the nine moons surrounding the gas giant planet also called Endor are rich in various metal minerals. Now the people in the engineering department are working overtime to build more resource collectors until the Orca is researched and built. Once the Orce is built the resource collectors will then be depositing the asteroids in the Orca to be transported to the mothership in less trips. The metal from the asteroids will provide raw materials for the construction work in space.

The same is true for the colony on the ground. Now the colony on Sanctuary has built more the two thousand modular 2-story residential buildings, and the number of residents has increased to more than 3,900, and the entire colony can accommodate 10,000 residents.

Hera Clement of the Administration Department is constantly selecting suitable residents to wake up and send them down to Sanctuary to join the construction work. By the way, Jay is no longer the mayor of the village. He has been promoted to the township just yesterday.

The biggest problem now is that the first is the job pressure brought about by the rapid population growth. The second is that there are not enough transport ships between the mothership and Sanctuary. There are only five small transport ships on the mothership, and each transport ship can only carry 100 passengers or 50 tons of cargo at a time, which is far from meeting the demand of the colony.

Moreover, this kind if transport ship is about 30 meters long, which belongs to the level of a light frigates, and cannot be built on the production lines built into the mothership. In order to build more transport ships, a small space dock must be built. Although this has already started, even if the mothership is equipped with modular materials, it will take another week to complete a building of this scale.

What's worse is that one of the transport ships should have left some faults when it crossed before the mothership, and now it is being used so intensively that it went on strike...

These things made Jon Roberts who was training his force powers and lightsaber combat forms very anxious. There were not that many problems when the colony was first built, but now that it is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more problems do deal with. In the past few days, he had no free time to think on the issues such as the plot of "Star Wars". He is constantly either going back and forth between Sanctuary and the mothership or training his force powers and lightsaber combat forms, making various decisions.

However, the benefits of doing so are also obvious. He has been instilled with all kinds of knowledge in his mind, and now after using said knowledge for a period of time, it has developed a lot, and he is familiar with the many tasks that have to be done.

If it was more than two weeks ago when he had not crossed over and was just an ordinary auto parts store worker, whoever told him that he could manage such a growing interstellar colony, Jon Roberts would have thought that person was talking about a science fiction plot.

But now things have developed to the present... Could it be that I have time-traveled or had been teleported into a science fiction novel? Jon Roberts looked up at the sky, wondering if he could see the author's extremely handsome face.

In short, under the leadership of Jon Roberts, the colony is still developing in an orderly manner. They set up hunting teams so that the marines being trained by Xaz could gain practical combat experience as Mandalorians, and they could also supplement the colony with meat...
