Star Rail, the Researcher Joins the Chat Group

Legend has it that its right hand can trigger a "Calamity," while its left hand can tear open the "Dawn." It is a genuine, colossal threat to the universe.

If it were merely Voidrangers, the Space Station could resolve the situation by paying a certain price.

But facing the Doomsday Beast, that would be like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

In an instant.

The entire Main Control Section was filled with a sense of despair.

"Immediately raise the Space Station's shields to the maximum level to block the Doomsday Beast's attack!"

Just then, a crisp female voice suddenly rang out.

After her initial shock, Asta calmed down immediately and issued her orders.

Chen Mu watched Asta's performance, a smile appearing on his face.

However, that smile didn't last long before his expression darkened.

"The Space Station's protective barrier won't last long. Members of the Train Crew, you must take the train and leave. I will stay behind. And Chen Mu, Stelle, you should go with them on the train as well."

Asta made a prompt decision, her expression more serious than ever before.

"That won't do! Let's all escape together!"

March 7th refused without hesitation, speaking with urgency.

Asta shook her head.

"We can't escape. The Space Station cannot hold back the Doomsday Beast. I cannot leave the others behind, and furthermore, someone must stay to stall the Doomsday Beast."

"You are not members of the Space Station to begin with; I have no reason to make you face this crisis with me. Rest assured, I will do my best to buy you some time."

March 7th opened her mouth upon hearing this, momentarily at a loss for words.

In any case, she deeply disapproved of such a thing.

"Stelle, March 7th, and Himeko, I can understand, but Asta, am I not a member of the Space Station? You actually want me to leave too?"

Chen Mu asked with a dark expression.

"You are different from us. You are a genius with great renown across the universe, and you have so many inventions... I don't want anything to happen to you."

Asta continued to explain and persuade him.

But upon seeing the look in Chen Mu's eyes, her tone weakened, and she revealed her true inner thoughts.

"I am not leaving, Asta."

"But..."

Asta looked anxious, wanting to say something more, but Chen Mu cut her off directly.

"There are no 'buts,' Asta. Do you really think that if someone I care about gets hurt, I could just walk away and be at peace with it afterward?"

Chen Mu said, looking at Asta.

Seeing the serious expression on Chen Mu's face, Asta's heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

"If Chen Mu isn't leaving, then I'm not leaving either."

At this moment, Stelle stepped forward, holding her Baseball Bat, and said resolutely.

"Exactly! We aren't just going to run away!"

March 7th chimed in as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

Himeko, standing to the side, opened her mouth and wore a helpless expression; whatever she had originally intended to say, she now dismissed.

She exchanged a glance with Dan Heng.

Though the two of them didn't state their position, their feet remained firmly planted where they stood.

After Chen Mu glanced at them and chuckled, he looked toward the Doomsday Beast on the horizon and said nonchalantly:

"Besides, it's just a Doomsday Beast. We just need to take care of it."

"Wait, Chen Mu, are you thinking of...?"

Upon hearing this, Asta's pupils constricted, and she said without hesitation, "No, absolutely not!"

Are you kidding me?

When Chen Mu went to other sections of the Space Station to deal with the Voidrangers, Asta had been incredibly worried and nervous.

It wasn't until she saw Chen Mu return safe and sound that she felt at ease.

And now, he actually wanted to go up against that planet-level weapon, the Doomsday Beast?

Isn't that far too dangerous?

Although she didn't know how strong Chen Mu was, he couldn't possibly be invincible!

"I say, Asta, have you misunderstood something? I'm not planning on taking it on personally. Have you forgotten what else we have on this Space Station?"

Chen Mu said with a wry smile.

To be honest, he might have indeed had that thought at the beginning, wondering whether he should try his hand against the Doomsday Beast.

But since Asta was so firm in her stance.

Chen Mu dismissed the idea.

He was a scientific researcher, after all; he should act the part and not make Asta worry too much.

Besides, his personal intervention wasn't the only way to eliminate the Doomsday Beast.

Asta looked puzzled upon hearing this.

Forgot what?

Had he forgotten something?

"The Star Destroyers, the Star Destroyers! There are two Star Destroyers I created parked around the Space Station, have you forgotten?"

Seeing that Asta couldn't recall, Chen Mu had no choice but to give her the answer directly, looking helpless.

Asta: "!!!"

Asta's face was full of shock, which immediately turned into a look of pleasant surprise as she finally remembered.

That's right.

They still had the Star Destroyers!

The Space Station hadn't been attacked for so long that Asta had almost forgotten about the two warships Chen Mu had created previously!

March 7th: "..."

Himeko: "..."

Dan Heng: "..."

Stelle: "?_?"

The group standing nearby heard this.

For a moment.

They didn't know what to say.

Forget it.

As long as you're happy.

Chapter 37 Pop~

"Everyone! Get ready!"

"Prepare to engage the Doomsday Beast! Activate the Star Destroyer!"

Chen Mu smiled and issued the order directly on the spot.

The many researchers on the Space Station were stunned for a moment.

Upon hearing Chen Mu's words, expressions of pleasant surprise appeared on their faces. Each of them felt their hearts settle, and they quickly returned to their posts, busy at work, each performing their own duties.

Even Asta was filled with fighting spirit at this moment.

She had originally thought there was no hope left, her heart filled with despair.

But now.

Since there was still hope, it was naturally impossible for her to just sit and wait for death. Her heart was brimming with determination.

Himeko, watching this scene from the side, was filled with emotion.

A single sentence had calmed the panicked crowd, made them follow orders, and allowed them to quickly enter their state of readiness.

In the Space Station.

Aside from Herta.

I am afraid only this young man named Chen Mu before her could achieve such a feat.

Even Asta could not do it.

"I just feel like... this doesn't seem to be what I imagined..."

March 7th looked at the busy researchers before her and said, dumbfounded.

In her imagination.

It should have been everyone working together to resist the Doomsday Beast's attack, and after giving it their all, driving away or destroying the Doomsday Beast.

Although it seemed to be the case now, something felt a bit off.

Himeko heard this and chuckled softly.

She thought to herself, of course it's different.

It is not as if just anyone can possess a Star Destroyer to combat a Doomsday Beast.

How many factions in the universe even have a Star Destroyer?

Even the Space Station would likely be without one if Chen Mu hadn't taken an interest in inventing two of them back in the day.

However...

Himeko approached Chen Mu and reminded him, "Chen Mu, while the method of using a Star Destroyer to eliminate the Doomsday Beast is indeed feasible, the beast is currently too close to the Space Station. If we use the Star Destroyer rashly, it might affect the station."

The Doomsday Beast was currently clinging to the Space Station, attempting to breach its defenses.

At such a close range, it was impossible for the Space Station to avoid being caught in the blast.

"I am well aware of that. Don't worry, I have a way to solve it."

Chen Mu chuckled and said to Himeko.

Himeko nodded upon hearing this and said nothing more.

She knew that since Chen Mu had said so, he naturally had his own plans.

"Everyone, aim the cannons at the Stellar Sea Latitude..."

Chen Mu gave the order without hesitation!

That was a location with some distance from the Space Station, a position where the blast would not affect it.

"Yes!"

The numerous researchers nodded without hesitation, responding in unison before immediately springing into action.

No one asked why.

They trusted Chen Mu unconditionally.

March 7th, on the other hand, was left completely bewildered upon hearing that target location.
