The Ghost, The Magnate, and the Warship - Part 1
URS Manifest Dominion, International Waters, Avis Ocean
12 Hours Before The Finals
Xu
Xu ran at 120 kilometers per hour across the placid nighttime waters of the Avis Ocean. Qi wise, it was an expensive and inefficient way to travel. Xu had yet to figure out a technique to generate flight like Zai did. Leaping all the way from Lonan, while the most efficient option, would be uncontrolled and potentially susceptible to detection by radar.
The moon was almost full, which was annoying, but at least there were clouds out, and it was beneath the shadow of one such cloud that Xu made her way toward the stern of the massive dreadnought that had parked itself outside of Aviye's waters.
Slipping past the picketed destroyers, Xu wanted to go invisible but she was already heavily taxing herself and she needed to conserve as much as she could for the fight. But the hardest part was already over.
