Foster led Mita’s fleet to Golden Valley Star and unleashed Cooling Hives full of Dark Domain Insects, hoping to capture the Undying and Bai Fu.

Mita’s wild theories about Bai Fu’s identity reached Foster and the head butler, who both mistook their guesses for facts and took steps to counter her. Foster used Onandi’s profiling ability to locate Bai Fu while Sesia secretly followed the fleet, and the head butler began writing posts to turn other factions against Bai Fu.

Bai Fu sent the Undying to raid Mita-linked strongholds, recover Dissociative Potion samples, and promote Darkmoon Tide, revealing their frightening combat strength to the Initial Gate star cluster. As the players drew the attention of rival factions and Mita plotted to capture them, Bai Fu collected six samples, gained a flood of commission offers, and called her team back to plan the company’s future.

• Bai Fu ordered more than fifty thousand players to move out, and Vik led over ten thousand of them in a charge against Between Two Points Logistics on Niville Star.
