After a quiet journey through the Majestic Teal Star Sector, the expeditionary fleet had become engulfed in another incident!
This time, the cause and effect weren't immediately clear. The Golden Skull Alliance fleet had not done anything special at the time that six of its starships blew up without any chance of recovery.
Suffice to say, the Larkinsons, Glory Seekers and Crossers had become incredibly alarmed! They had all raised the alert level to red and sortied every single mech that they could bring into space.
Thousands of mechs belonging to many different mech forces joined the patrols that had already become a lot more vigilant for possible attacks.
In the end, a total of roughly 9,000 mechs of the Golden Skull Alliance had entered full battle readiness, which was several thousand more than Ves expected. While the amount of available mechs his clan could deploy at this time was still limited, his two allies had been working quite hard to raise their effective strength.
