"Forget it, everyone from the Astral Express. You should go to the Supply Zone and leave the station. We'll handle things here ourselves..."
"No, standing by and doing nothing isn't the way of the Trailblazers of the Astral Express."
Himeko shook her head slightly, declining Asta's suggestion.
"Sister Himeko is right! The Astral Express won't abandon the Herta Space Station! Right, Dan Heng?"
As she spoke, March 7th nudged the quiet Dan Heng with her elbow.
"Yeah..."
A somewhat gloomy Dan Heng nodded slightly and spoke in a low voice.
"Stelle and Kiana will come too, right!"
March 7th looked at the two expectantly; she hadn't forgotten their two new companions.
Besides, Stelle was quite a good fighter, and Kiana didn't seem weak after her possession either.
Plus, Uncle Yang was about to arrive!
With this combination, facing an invasion from the Antimatter Legion felt like a sure win!
March 7th thought happily to herself.
Even if a Lord Ravager showed up, little March would give them more than they could handle!
"Very well then. Please help evacuate the crowd in the Supply Zone and lead them to the Master Control Zone for safety..."
"Alright, leave it to us."
Himeko accepted Asta's request with a smile, then gave a slight nod of acknowledgment before turning to leave.
Kiana and the others exchanged glances and followed. Since she had joined the Astral Express, she might as well pitch in.
Since the trajectory of fate had already changed, Kiana actually hoped a Lord Ravager would show up.
Otherwise, these small fry wouldn't be enough for her to fight.
If Nanook himself came, she should still be able to protect everyone in her current state.
Because Kiana was in an incomplete state, she didn't dare be too arrogant and focused primarily on being safe.
Asta was quite moved and gave Himeko and the others a grateful look.
"Thank you, everyone. The Herta Space Station will never forget your kindness."
"Wait for our good news."
Kiana floated in front of Asta, gave a wink, and then caught up with the others walking ahead.
Before long, the group arrived at the long corridor leading to the platform in the Supply Zone.
Himeko and the others split up to protect the crowd evacuating the Supply Zone. Things went smoothly, and soon the people from the Supply Zone were escorted to the Master Control Zone.
Rumble—
After the last group was sent off, a loud noise erupted from above the corridor where Kiana, March 7th, Dan Heng, and Stelle were.
The group looked up and saw the Doomsday Beast perched above, letting out bursts of roars at them.
"What's the point of staying up so high? Come down here if you've got the guts!"
March 7th shouted at the Doomsday Beast above with her hands on her hips, looking quite spirited.
As if it understood her words, the Doomsday Beast smashed the protective shield above its head and reached out a hand covered in white matter toward them.
But looking closely, its target was clear: Stelle.
"March, cover me!"
After speaking, Dan Heng lunged forward with cloud-piercer, knocking the Doomsday Beast's hand off its original trajectory so it smashed into the side.
March 7th created Six Phases of Ice shields around everyone, then drew her bow at the Doomsday Beast. Instantly, countless small dolls made of Six Phases of Ice pounced on the beast.
The good news: half of the Doomsday Beast's body was frozen. The bad news: it wasn't secure... Boom—
The Doomsday Beast easily broke free from the restraint, slammed its hands on both sides, and planted its massive body on the corridor, roaring at them.
"March, can I borrow your body for a bit?"
Kiana floated over to March 7th and asked as if seeking her opinion.
"Can you handle this thing?"
March 7th couldn't help but doubt if Kiana borrowing her body was just going to be a suicide mission.
After all, that thing was an anti-planet weapon of the Antimatter Legion; ordinary methods definitely wouldn't work.
"It'll be a piece of cake~"
"Well... alright then. I'll trust you this once. Just don't mess around with my body!"
"Don't worry~ How could I bear to mess with my dear little March's body? Just watch~!"
Kiana flickered and dove into March 7th's body, then took control with March's permission.
Her body is quite soft, but not as soft as this young miss's waist!
Kiana gave a fair assessment, then stretched her body slightly.
Meanwhile, in the deepest part of March 7th's consciousness, a pair of crimson eyes quietly opened, only to slowly close again after shifting left and right twice.
"Heave-ho..."
After moving her body, Kiana rubbed her wrists and looked at the intimidating Doomsday Beast.
"I won't use physical strikes this time. Let's try something different. I'll use..."
Snap—
"Zaphkiel!"
Kiana snapped her fingers, and a large, golden, ancient pocket watch with several gears of different sizes appeared behind her.
"Spirit Dress: El!"
With Kiana's light shout, the decorations on March 7th's body changed, turning into a pink Gothic Lolita dress that matched March 7th's color scheme, paired with two white stockings.
At the same time, her left pupil turned into the shape of a golden pocket watch. She held a flintlock pistol in one hand and a greatsword in the other.
"the fully deployed obliteration! Halvanhelev form!"
A massive throne appeared behind Kiana, which then shattered and attached itself to the blade of the fully deployed obliteration, turning it into a giant sword with a golden edge, a black blade, and red patterns.
Stelle, standing nearby, looked at the giant sword in Kiana's hand and then at the bat in her own hand; it suddenly didn't feel as cool anymore.
She wanted one of those big, cool ones too!
On the other side, because his teammates were slacking off and not working, Dan Heng was knocked back by the Doomsday Beast in a moment of inattention.
Kiana pointed the flintlock pistol at her own head. This move made Stelle's pupils shrink, and she hurriedly reached out to stop her:
"Transfer your Galactic Credit to me before you pull the trigger!"
"???"
Kiana's body paused. Looking at Stelle, whose words didn't seem human, she didn't know how to complain.
"Aleph!"
After pulling the trigger on herself, Kiana instantly vanished and reappeared in the trajectory of Dan Heng's flight, catching him steadily.
"Dalet!"
The flintlock shot hit Dan Heng, and his body immediately restored to its state before being attacked.
Dan Heng looked at Kiana with shock. This power... it was definitely the power of time!
He clearly perceived that his body had returned to its previous state through time reversal.
Little March... no, this Xianzhou native possessing Little March, what was her background... Even a General of the Xianzhou couldn't control time so easily.
"ROAR—!!!"
A destructive white light shot out from the core of the Doomsday Beast's chest, aimed straight at Kiana.
But Kiana was still under the acceleration of Aleph. She easily dodged the attack and arrived above the Doomsday Beast's head.
The flintlock muzzle pointed at the core of the Doomsday Beast's chest, and the pocket watch hands in her left eye spun wildly.
"Zayin!"
Tick-tick-tick—
The bullet hit the Doomsday Beast's core. The sound of clock hands ticking appeared in its body, and its massive frame was instantly frozen in time.
"One last strike. Let's end this farce."
Kiana aimed at the Doomsday Beast and swung the final sword in her other hand. The seemingly hard body of the Doomsday Beast was sliced in half like tofu.
After dealing with the Doomsday Beast, Kiana returned to Stelle's side, gave the body back to March 7th, and deactivated the Spirit state.
"How was that? Cool, right?"
Kiana floated with her hands on her hips, feeling quite proud of herself.
"Holy crap..."
At this moment, Stelle had been processing things for a long time, and only these two words could represent her shocked heart.
