"The ship's AI has been reset."
"The navigation data has been backed up."
"All sensors of unknown purpose have been removed."
Inside the newly stolen ship, Bai Fu listened to the reports from the players who had changed classes to become mechanics and nodded repeatedly.

When she swapped ships with the Firebearer House, Bai Fu had deliberately left a few
