章 1016: 1016 Smooth Transfer

The Colony Ship full of Drone Fighters was the one to stabilize the portal this time, leading just outside the contested star system.

[All vessels enter in the dispatched order, one-second spacing. Go, go, go.] Max ordered, setting the pace with his words.

The ships poured through the portal in pairs. The transfer was done with the ships side by side until they got to the Destroyers, which had to enter slightly staggered.

The portal closed just as the Colony Ship passed through, and the fleet went to Warp 15, the most that the Morphos fleet could hold, in preparation for the assault.

Nico had the Cutter hold back as the fleet deployed, as they weren't actively involved in the first stage of Drone Fighter drops and Mecha deployments.

[Drone Fighters are away.] The Colony Ship AI informed them, signalling that the shock troops were on their way down to the surface to try to retake some strategic positions on behalf of the locals.
