The standoff between the Gao Fang warship and the battleship lasted for more than a day before the other side retreated back to the Space Fortress, seemingly to rest and regroup.
Ship 3344 remained in place, avoiding the risk of another warship appearing, forcing them to retreat again, which would show a lack of confidence.
Another half day passed, and the Gao Fang warship began moving to another direction on the planet, seemingly giving some face to the military.
The military's battleship didn't follow in pursuit—when the other side offers face, it would be ungracious to continue being relentless.
Another day passed, and a starship lifted off from the planet, brushing past less than fifty thousand kilometers away from Ship 3344.
"A starship from the Cyan Blade Commerce Association!" Little Lake promptly issued a warning, "It belongs to the hostile forces!"
