Meanwhile, Atlas allows refugees from other regions to enter the city under close supervision and control from Metal Age members and Duomo citizens. Nagiko and Talsian reunite and play chess, as Nagiko realizes that Ryoko has become selfish and want control over Atlas instead of handing it to the Digmas. Karin continues making profits with the rising carbon coefficient while Akihabara is taking the brunt of the bombings with eveyone underground. Kuniko personally bombs Duomo, her old home, which is now gone forever. After confirming the complete purging of Daedalus infestations, the bombers return to base. Ryoko's men conclude that the only infestation left is in Atlas' eighth floor. Not only that, Japan is now the poorest country on the planet. Karin releases Medusa to claim the profits gained from the spiking carbon coefficient, but the AI goes out of control.
