章 1230: 1229 Waypoint

Max moved Creeping Darkness into position for its new mission. Felicity and Sylvie had worked out the details between them and had ended up with Felicity getting the personnel transfers and smaller shipments, as that would allow the merchants to travel the cities for a while before they left, while Sylvie was to receive all the large bulk shipments, where the crew would only be a handful of people.

She had enough of the ship renovated to keep that many entertained and housed, but most of the bulk freighters didn't want to stick around in the first place. They just wanted to get unloaded and on to their next target.

There were tens of thousands of bulk deliveries, mostly ore and biomass for the Replicators on the space stations and orbital defence platforms that had survived the attacks all over the Galaxy. The more of them that they could take on, the better their reputation would be when it came time to look for regular shipments later.
