章 554: Rising Current

Lately, the Verle Task Force started to meander in Hafner space. Ves believed that the Vandals didn't want Hafner to know where they planned to go. This was why the fleet took a lot of detours that didn't bring them closer to the border.

To an outside observer, it might have appeared that the task force desperately wanted to cross the border, but withheld from taking action because they needed to accumulate more strength. The meandering routes the task force followed didn't take them anywhere special.

Ves believed that was exactly the point. Through various hints and deductions, most of which he picked up from the meetups where he played Pirate Empires, he suspected that Major Verle actually aimed for a target that was very near to their current location.
