After about a day the cruiser stopped cruising and slowly turned around. It then headed back to the jumpgate and then cut it's engines, drifting silently.
Onboard the dreadnought the robotic crew were hard at work upgrading most of the equipment and systems with parts looted and adapted from the destroyed escorts.
One group of robots was gathering all the junk, obsolete and useless parts from all over the ship and taking it to engineering.
There the massive, heavily armoured robots (designed to clean and service the main reactor) were melting all the scrap metal down, to be made into new parts and equipment.
Several construction machinery unit where sitting in the hold, there wasn't that much, which was why the ship was heading back into california.
The idea behind their use was to reinforce the ships original armour by using the construction machinery to fill in most of the rooms and corridors that weren't used or needed, mainly becuase they were for the human crew, with the same material used to build and armour the hull.
