Hepitasong Dock, the sound of the steamship whistle pierced the sky.
Seeing those steel giants entering the port, everyone remaining in Mafa cheered and shouted with excitement.
The Empire hadn't abandoned them, and this gave everyone a real hope for survival.
"Don't bring so much stuff, there's plenty of food and water on the ship! Let as many people get on as possible..."
"Let women and children board first, don't push everyone, there are enough ships for everyone, and there are thousands more coming! Every day!"
"..."
Seeing the endless array of ships at sea, the tens of millions of people in Habitson City truly felt at ease.
The gangways were lowered, and people surged onto the ferries.
To fit as many people as possible, these cruisers had all unnecessary decorations and luxurious amenities removed, leaving only empty cabins.
A cruiser that originally had a standard capacity of five thousand now could carry fifty thousand.
