Before arriving at the DX07 sector, Meteor slowed down and came to a stop. As per Sarila's instructions, the captain began broadcasting identification codes to identify themselves as a member of the Valsalrian Army.
If she hadn't done so, the entire ship, Federation origin or not, would have been shot down before even approaching any habitable planets.
"Approaching Hypercruiser, this is the Police Force of the Carldish Fort. Shut down all power generators and shields! We will begin inspection."
A fleet of patrol ships approached Meteor and surrounded it from all directions.
"Do as they ask," said Sarila.
If they wanted to take refuge in the fort, they had to obey every instruction given. Refusal to cooperate would only result in utter destruction. The captain quickly followed Sarila's orders and deactivated every defense system, including the power generator. One police patrol ship docked and a group of 50 men boarded Meteor.
