72 The Voyage

“Zeus-1 has broken atmosphere, we’re space-bound. Accelerating!” Mika’s voice echoed through the bridge.

“Maintain speed,” Lan Jue ordered.

“We’ll be arriving at the wormhole in seven minutes, and will proceed to jump to the alliance border.”

In the vastness of the universe Zeus-1 was but a spec. But it was it’s speed, not it’s size that protected it from military radar. It was simply too fast for them to get a lock.

If any of them knew the materials used to make the ship, or the sheer amount of energy gems that powered it, they’d be speechless.

The entirety of Zeus-1 was comprised like a gem. The blue coat on it’s exterior wasn’t to dazzle the eyes, but was actually created from a power gem called an indigo keystone. It was mixed with other items to give it texture. It served both to insulate the ship and aid in power distribution.
