Quickly recovering from his shock, Munakata demonstrated his decisiveness as a commander at that moment.
"No matter what happened to Xiao Bing and the others, we absolutely cannot let that strange bird get close to that base!"
Let's leave aside what exactly happened on Xiao Bing's side.
The mere fact that the base stores various dangerous weapons from the former Earth Defense Force era makes it absolutely unacceptable for any malicious entity to approach it.
"Victory Swallow No. 1 and Victory Swallow No. 2, launch immediately!"
Upon receiving the order, Shinjo, Daigo, and Rena immediately saluted and then turned and ran towards the hangar.
"Ye Rui, continue monitoring that strange bird's movements. You absolutely cannot lose it!"
Closely following behind Shinjo, Daigo, and Rena, Munakata, who was also piloting the attack, didn't forget to give them a final word of advice until the very last moment.
"understand!"

Chapter 591 The Founder of New Energy (Third Update, Please Subscribe!)
Meanwhile, near an apartment building in Hokkaido.
"You must be Dr. Nezu, right?"
Appearing as a young boy, Lu Xuan stood at the end of the street, looking at the old man not far away, and asked in a low voice.
The old man didn't have any particularly outstanding appearance or features; he looked no different from any other elderly person.
If there is any difference between him and ordinary old people, it may lie in his overly weathered face and the undisguised depression between his brows.
"You are……"
The old man frowned as he looked at Lu Xuan, who had suddenly spoken up; he clearly did not recognize him.
Since moving here, the old man has essentially severed all ties with his former family and friends.
"My name is Lu Xuan, and I am currently one of the candidates for president of the Galvin Group..."
Without making any attempt to conceal his identity, Lu Xuan got straight to the point.
"Our group is very interested in the projects you previously worked on and would like to further our cooperation with you."
Upon hearing this, the old man... or rather Dr. Nezu's expression changed immediately, and he rebuked him in an extremely disgusted tone.
"I don't know what you're talking about, and I have no interest in cooperating with any person or organization."
Despite Dr. Nezu's undisguised disgust, Lu Xuan remained unperturbed.
After all, discovering Dr. Nezu on this trip was a complete accident, and his recruitment was at best a casual and impulsive act.
Moreover, Lu Xuan himself is not good at this kind of recruitment task.
"A top scientist during the former Earth Defense Force era, and one of the founders of new energy technologies..."
"Your achievements are destined to be recorded in history; this is a fact that cannot be concealed in any way."
He stared at Lu Xuan across from him with a gloomy expression.
Dr. Nezu didn't refute anything further, but instead directly asked Lu Xuan about the purpose of his trip.
“Those were all twenty years ago. I’m just an old man who’s past his prime now.”
"I don't think I have any connection with your Galvin Group, do I?"
"So, why did you come here?"
This is what puzzled Dr. Nezu the most.
If the Galvin Group had truly investigated its own background, it would surely know why it chose to live in seclusion here.
So why did the other party suddenly come here and invite him to come out of seclusion again?
"I didn't actually come here for you..."
To Dr. Nezu's surprise, Lu Xuan suddenly looked up at the sky after saying those words.
In the midst of their conversation, a white sonic boom, visible to the naked eye, suddenly appeared in the sky.
It's like the few wisps of cloud left behind by a supersonic aircraft in flight.
The white sound barrier pierced through the clouds and ripped through the sky at a speed visible to the naked eye, hurtling straight toward Hokkaido.
Wherever it passed, a fierce wind swept through the clouds, and the sound shook the air currents. In an instant, it was already above the two of them.
"That is……"
Dr. Nezu's pupils suddenly contracted, and his eyes widened in disbelief.
Because the culprit behind that white sound barrier had already come into their field of vision.
It was a strange bird with deep blue eyes and reptilian scales on its body.
Its speed and force were so great that even ordinary people on the ground were inevitably drawn to its full attention.
The noisy crowd pulled out their phones, trying to record what the strange bird really looked like.
......................................................................................................
"Target locked!"
Just seconds after the strange bird appeared over Hokkaido, Victory Swallow No. 1 also appeared in everyone's sight.
Daigo and Rena are currently in charge of piloting the Victory Flying Swallow No. 1.
The two of them immediately located the strange bird and planned to use this information to their advantage to prepare for the upcoming Victory Swallow II reconnaissance mission.
Silence—Boom!
The sonic boom created by the hypersonic speed echoed in mid-air, and Victory Flying Swallow No. 1 successfully intercepted the strange bird's flight path.
"Wow!"
Upon seeing this, the strange bird suddenly let out a strange cry.
The next second, a beam of orange-yellow energy gathered in the strange bird's mouth and then shot out.
tumultuous!
In a flash, Lina demonstrated her talent and reflexes as an excellent driver.
Seemingly unavoidable, the Victory Flying Swallow No. 1 swooped down at an odd angle, then made a 360-degree turn and circled directly beneath the strange bird.
Such an extreme flight mode is a huge test of the pilot's physical fitness.
Fortunately, Lina's partner was Daigo, who had an amazing physique.
He didn't lose his focus due to the physical strain; instead, he seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and decisively pressed the attack button.
hum!
In an instant, a piercing sound wave with low frequencies and high pitch was emitted.
The high-frequency shock weapon that once destroyed the Muzhen aliens once again demonstrated its terrifying nature.
"Wow!"
The strange bird that was hit immediately let out a shrill scream, and cracks appeared on its scales.
Those scales, stronger than steel, were utterly powerless against this attack that penetrated deep into the molecular structure.
Click...
The sound of shattering was clearly audible throughout the sky, and crimson blood rained down from the clouds.
The wailing, strange bird turned and roared almost frantically, only to be met with an even fiercer attack from Victory Swallow No. 1.
With their extensive experience, how could Lina and Daigo possibly let such a good opportunity slip by?
Unfortunately, just as they were about to launch another attack, they saw that the strange bird's injuries were healing at an astonishing speed.
Its extraordinary self-healing ability completely redefines the concept of normal living beings.
In just a moment, the cracked scales were restored to their original state.
Moreover, the strange bird seized the opportunity to launch a counterattack against Victory Swallow No. 1.
Silence!
Another orange-yellow beam of light shot out from the monster bird's mouth, hitting the wing of the Victory Swallow No. 1 precisely.
Fortunately, the beam of light only grazed the wing of the Victory Flying Swallow No. 1.
Lina and Daigo, who were inside the cabin, only felt a jolt and were not injured.
"Lina!"
Just as the strange bird was about to launch a second attack, Munakata's voice came through the communicator to Daigo and Rena.
"Proceed with fire! We must restrict the flight path of that strange bird!"
Upon hearing the command, Lina immediately understood the meaning behind the other party's words. She and Daigo exchanged a knowing glance and responded in unison.
"understand!"

Chapter 592 Rebirth from the Fire
"What...what are they doing?"
"Look at the sky! That strange bird looks like it's about to attack again!"
"It's the Victory Flying Swallow! What does it want to do!?"
……
The battle at high altitude was inevitably observed by the crowd below.
The live footage was even directly uploaded to the internet by some busybodies.
The thrilling battle between the strange bird and Victory Swallow No. 1 caused a huge stir throughout human society.
Because the battle between these two was less of a fight and more of a dance battle between "aerial knights".
The enormous, strange bird frequently spewed out orange-yellow energy beams, like sharp swords tearing through the sky and turning the entire cloud layer upside down.
Meanwhile, the Victory Flying Swallow No. 1 used astonishing piloting skills to repeatedly narrowly escape those dangerous energy beams.
Like a fairy dancing in the air, or a knight dueling on the battlefield...
Every moment the strange bird and the Victory Swallow No. 1 crossed paths was filled with a unique beauty.
This kind of beauty is deadly and dangerous, yet it captivates onlookers, making them unable to extricate themselves.
Only pilots who are extremely confident in their skills dare to engage in close-quarters aerial combat with the strange bird.
Of course, all Victory Flying Swallow 1 could do was engage in close combat.
The strange bird, which displayed astonishing healing abilities, was completely unafraid of the weapons carried by the Victory Swallow No. 1.
Just when it seemed that this stalemate was about to continue, the long-awaited Victory Flying Swallow II finally appeared.
Silence!
It was accompanied by a piercing sonic boom.
The larger and more heavily armed Victory Flying Swallow II hovered in mid-air, its front fuselage prominently displaying a dark cannon muzzle.
That was Victory Swallow II's trump card, and also the Victory Team's powerful weapon specifically designed to target monsters—the Texas Cannon.
By introducing a variable system, Max energy containing special photons is input into it, thereby unleashing a powerful attack that is close to the annihilation of matter in a short period of time.
The Texas Cannon's actual combat power is already comparable to ordinary beam attacks.
"Wow!"
Instantly sensing the deadly threat from the sky, the strange bird let out another startling cry.
The materialized shockwave instantly dispersed the nearby clouds, successfully exposing Victory Swallow II to the strange bird's view.
