This phase will pit you against Lycoris Himme, accompanied by Supply Depot Himes. The key to successfully clearing this phase is anti-installation equipment. The route to the boss contains 2 submarine and 2 air raid nodes. Make sure you have adequate AACI, ASW, and anti-installation equipment to tackle this phase.
