After giving the Glatters Army on Mars a warning, effortlessly suppressing the combat strength of the entire base by himself, and leaving behind a few threatening words, Xiao Ran departed Mars with Dawn and Giant Whale.
After breaking through Mars's atmosphere and returning to space, Xiao Ran suddenly asked, "Eagle, can we reach Glatters territory in just one day using a FOLD Jump?"
"My lord, theoretically, yes. We would only need one day to arrive, thirty-six hours at most," Eagle immediately replied. "However, considering the current conditions and environment, we do not possess the capability for ultra-long-range travel. A single unit's jump cannot support such a distance or timeframe. Even if Dawn can perform a FOLD Jump, we still cannot arrive within that time."
"..." Xiao Ran fell silent for a moment. "I understand."
Eagle had not lied. What it meant was that with a New Macross Class vessel, they could reach the Glatters Army within thirty-six hours at most. That was the truth. But the key was that they currently had no MACORSS-class vessel available to them, so naturally, there was no possibility of jumping to Glatters within a day.
Thus, Xiao Ran's threat was only a threat for the time being. If he truly jumped there, remained in a state of Quantum Assimilation while wreaking havoc across Glatters territory, then forcibly maintained that state while jumping back, Xiao Ran would probably end up unable to move afterward.

At most, within a day or two, they would learn that Tactical Armor Dawn had been on Earth not long before, only to use a Space Jump and suddenly appear
