March then complained to Himeko about how long she had been then described her experience in the battle with Himeko saying that she could do it but not since she could blow up the space station.
Himeko then faced Arlan and said to him how Asta worried him, to which he replied with a quick patching and thanks for asking which he then wanted to report back to Asta.
Himeko now faced Erwin's group and then towards Caelus introduced herself and her occupation as the navigator of the Astral Express which March explained that she is in charge of where the express goes.
Where she then asked if March was giving any trouble to which Caelus answered, with Dan Heng refusing to answer that and Erwin using an expression using his hands showing the tipping of the balance on two sides.
Himeko then asked everyone to come with her to meet Asta as they got there Asta was currently unleashing order after order Erwin then looked around the room seeing everyone else's morale at a low point.
His attention was then taken when a huge dragon appeared on the screen with Asta ordering the Express Crew to leave which they did until they reached another zone and talked about losing the communication signals.
Dan Heng then talked about the dragon which was the doomsday beast the legion's planet destroyer Himeko continued then said as long as the Lord Ravager doesn't come there won't be more problems.
Erwin questioned Dan Heng about it and said that they could rip off the stations' shields like paper and since Herta is not here the station can't compete against the Legion's invasion which they are blessed by Nanook so they are prepared and everyone here is not.
Still discussing the room they are in Erwin then explored his backpack terminal to which he connected his phone to his probe scanner where he saw the outline of the whole station and its tenants and then saw many closed areas he then put it away he came back to the conversation about Caelus being able to turn the tables around to which Himeko announced to everyone that they should get out of the station.
During which the Express Crew faced many foes of the Antimatter Legion, and their Elite ranks during which everyone's faces are getting tired each battle but are restored thanks to the space anchors nearby.
Erwin then saw a pop-up screen in front of him about a new feature on the system about used the probe scanner to scan existing machines to get their schematics and fabricate them into their system Erwin activated his Probe Scanner to which everything in his line of view is being scanned to get their schematics to which is now downloaded into the terminal of his backpack and the phone on his pocket.
Erwin was now shaken out of his concentration and saw that everyone else was leaving to which he said sorry turned off the Scanner, tightened the straps on his backpack, and moved with the group.
They then continued towards the platform where the Express was parked on the balcony Erwin noticed the lack of a certain train docked he then thought to himself 'Maybe Mr. Yang moved it since the arrival of the Legion, we can at least find where he is.' to which he agrees with himself.
When the crew got over there there was no Express but March kept going to which Dan Heng warned March to stay away where March looked back and the Doomsday Beast flew behind March and in front of the others.
To which a dramatic entrance was made with the Doomsday Beast hovered over them where Himeko commented that it was here, March notching an ice arrow taunting it, and roaring at their doom.
The beast then swiped over everyone which they scraped, then it slammed on the nearest one which was March, provided she shielded herself, then everyone attacked near the beast with Himeko getting a few slices on its right hand, Dan Heng went for the right temporarily disabled it, Caelus swiped his bat hitting both the hands and the core, Erwin used his terrain tool and sucked the beasts core draining its properties bit by bit.
The beast then acted gathering the energy from its core and transferring it to his right hand during which Caelus made his bat glow and attacked mid-powerup before Himeko extended her drone range cutting the hand and core disabling the right hand to which she took another action of deploying here drone and launching an orbital strike after the drone sliced the beast.
But the beast-powered right hand recovered as it swiped across everyone, while its other hand recovered it pressed down Himeko a bit with dust going everywhere in here area, Dan Heng disabled its right hand again with March shooting an arrow on the left hand and shot another one into the air but transformed into Pompoms and rained everywhere on the beast.
With both hands disabled Erwin drained the core of its protective properties with gave Caelus a hard swing of his bat and Dan Heng piercing core whilst cracking its core more, the beast recovered using its core to create an outer shell attack on March crushing her but she endured it well then one it's core one more times before it's gone down.
Dan Heng initiated by holding his spear horizontally he then opened his eyes and struck the beast's head which cracked more, the beast then got up and roared, with Caelus swinging the bat first hitting the hands and core, but the beast then backed up it closed its wings and summoned laser from behind hitting all the Members of the Astral Express.
Some endured and some defended but none downed they countered the attack Erwin being the first by using the Terrain tool to drain the beast's energy from both hands disabling its use, the others attacked the core with Dan Heng first striking the core multiple times, Himeko deploying her drone slicing the hands and core, but the hands recovered before March or Caelus could attack.
To which the core powered both hands with the right slam against Caelus but countered by making his bat glow to which he struck hard towards the core with Himeko's Drone slicing next to target the hands and core, to which the left hand swiped across leaving an explosion behind.
March countered with an arrow then rained on it, Himeko following with an Orbital Strike, breaking the left hand, Caelus then broke the right one, Himeko followed with a clean slice to the core, then with its core weakened it dropped weakly on the ground with a thuds Dan Heng going swift, Erwin lobbed an energy ball exploding on impact, March sniped it with an arrow, A hard bonk for Caelus, and Himeko making 2 slices across its head and finishing it with a uppercut with a briefcase.
With the beast severely injured, it shot a beam from its head swaying a bit to which it targeted March everyone shouted for March until Caelus blocks the beam's path Erwin using his power and maximum settings of the terrain tool targeted the beast its body got sucked to the terrain tool all while Caelus has suddenly formed a shield around him and March blocking the majority of the attack.
Thanks to Erwin's quick thinking the majority of the beast's body missing with the beam on its head depleting quickly, as a surge of power within Caelus goes out of control knocking everyone back and Erwin lost concentration and his terrain tool which was now in glowing of golden light, now dimmed and shrunken back to its holster to which he looks at Caelus.
The power inside Caelus goes out of control having everyone backing up, March runs for cover behind Dan Heng, With Dan Heng and Erwin holding on while Himeko is standing tall holding on to her briefcase.
To which a cane entered through smacked the Caelus on the forehead with the power inside him contained, and came Welt holding said cane with March catching the unconscious Caelus.
Welt floated down with March worried for Caelus, and Welt responded "They're okay now, Let's talk somewhere else." facing back to the others as Caelus was taken to the med bay.
