After a three-day reprieve, the main fleet of the Golden Skull Alliance finally resumed its journey again.
In order to avoid alarming the Gauge Dynasty, the Wodin Warriors did not accompany the expeditionary fleet.
The Hexers already planned out their own movements. Every mech regiment and mech division assigned to Operation Saturday Market were scheduled to go on 'routine patrols' or fulfill other missions.
To be honest, the Fridaymen weren't stupid. When a lot of mech units from a lot of different parts of the Hex Federation departed in quick succession, the enemy would surely notice that something was wrong!
The mood in the fleet became more tense. In order to keep the offensive operation as secret as possible, the Golden Skull Alliance had to restrict people's access to the galactic net and curb many forms of communication.
