When Horii raised this question, Nozue, who had also come to her senses, decisively shook her head in denial.
"It couldn't have been done by extraterrestrials on Earth..."
"Even in the vast universe, a civilization that can freely control the power of black holes cannot be some unknown entity."
"According to the existing data and information of the Extraterrestrial Alliance, aliens of this level are among the most dangerous beings, and they will definitely not ignore them."
To put it bluntly, most of the extraterrestrials currently appearing on Earth are wanderers.
If they truly possessed the power of black holes, they would have already left Earth, instead of remaining here as wanderers.
"Then who could it be?"
It possesses network technology that is on par with, or even surpasses, that of Ye Rui.
They possess the ability to foresee changes in the mechanical island and to freely summon black holes.
Coupled with his mysterious and unpredictable style of doing things, the members of the Victory Team couldn't help but feel a strong sense of vigilance towards the helper.
"No matter what, at least this time it's on the side of humanity."
Knowing that this matter was beyond the scope of the GUTS team's ability to handle, Captain Megumi changed the subject.
"Look over there, isn't that Daigo?"
As the satellite camera zoomed in, a figure lying on a floating object suddenly appeared in the frame.
Despite looking extremely disheveled, the figure miraculously survived the raging waves and was even waving at Victory Flying Swallow No. 1.
"That Daigo guy..."
When Lina finally saw the figure clearly, her heart, which had been pounding with anxiety, instantly relaxed, replaced by a look of bewildered amusement.
"I knew it! Daigo would be fine!"
He always appears on the most dangerous front lines, and every time he manages to escape death...
Aside from the daily consumption of one Victory Flying Swallow, Daigo's resilience was already well-known within TPC.
If it weren't for the even more resilient Shinjo being ranked ahead of him, Daigo's fame would definitely have risen another level.
"I guess Ultraman Tiga saved him!"
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Lina picked up where Ye Rui left off and added a comment.
"Speaking of Ultraman Tiga, I wonder what happened to him in the end."
"And that mechanical giant modeled after Ultraman Tiga, it must have disappeared along with the destruction of the Mechanical Island, right?"
"Although it's a bit of a pity, this is indeed the best ending."

PS: The next volume will feature the appearance of the mid-game boss, Kiriel the Gods.
It might be a bit longer than a normal volume. I'll try to write it as concisely as possible, but since there's a lot of content involved, I feel that even with the most concise writing, it will still take forty or fifty chapters to finish.
Chapter 361 A New Civilization Marches Towards the Universe
May 3, 2008, Tokyo, Japan.
As time went by, the aftermath of the Machine Island incident gradually subsided, and everything seemed to be back on track.
However, some astute individuals recognized the changes in the world ahead of time.
The first and most obvious change is...
Led by Gailwin Corporation and developed through multi-departmental collaboration within TPC, the "Sky Rail Train" has officially entered the operational phase.
This mode of transportation, which establishes a dedicated electromagnetic channel between two cities and accelerates the carriages to their physical limits to cross the two cities in a short time, has won high praise from the entire human society since it began operation.
Thanks to this, the fully autonomous driverless cars that Galvin Company launched have also gained widespread acceptance among most people.
Between cities, people can travel by "sky rail train" and reach different cities around the world in a single day.
Within the city, people can temporarily rent Gailvin's fully autonomous driverless cars to reach their destination quickly and safely.
The combination of these two very different modes of transportation has enabled barrier-free travel worldwide.
This morning I was shopping in a bustling financial center in Asia...
In the afternoon, we can head to the vast and resource-rich Americas to enjoy the ultimate hunting experience...
In the evening, tired people can also enjoy a nighttime hot spring bath in a certain island nation...
From that moment on, Earth became a true "global village".
The increasingly frequent exchanges not only advanced the progress of civilization and intensified the integration of different races, but also, to a certain extent, achieved "Great Harmony".
Secondly, TPC has also made great progress in the field of space, which is not something that ordinary people pay much attention to.
Following the widespread adoption of new energy sources, a powerful kinetic energy system called the "Max Propulsion System" has enabled TPC-manufactured spacecraft to enter space independently.
According to the latest experimental progress, a spacecraft equipped with the "Max Propulsion System" can even successfully travel between Earth and Pluto in a single day.
This means that from this moment on, human civilization has taken its first step towards becoming a cosmic civilization.
The Moon, Mars, and even extraterrestrial galaxies...
The starry sky, as far as the human eye can see, has become an accessible destination.
Fully develop the moon, terraform the Martian environment, and explore extraterrestrial galaxies...
Numerous plans were proposed within TPC, and their feasibility was analyzed at lightning speed.
For a time, human society seemed to have entered a new era of technological innovation and vigorous development.
In this context, even the various supernatural anomalies that have occurred on Earth in recent years seem to have become less noticeable.
Of course, besides these changes that ordinary people can see.
In places unknown to normal people, all sorts of aliens, extraterrestrials, and even monsters living on Earth are reintegrating into this new era in their own ways.
In this respect, these outcasts living on Earth are far more aware than ordinary people.
Since the establishment of the Extraterrestrial Alliance, the TPC has intensified its search and investigation of all extraterrestrials.
All aliens who have ever been exposed on Earth are inevitably forced to register and enroll. Some aliens with more serious misconduct are even directly imprisoned in special prisons.
The remaining few aliens who had not been exposed lived in constant fear as they faced a dual search by the TPC and the Extraterrestrial Alliance.
Fortunately, thanks to the establishment of the Extraterrestrial Alliance, the negative impact of the "Shinjuku Incident" is gradually fading, and TPC's attitude towards aliens is also changing little by little.
Unless they have committed an unforgivable crime, extraterrestrials living on Earth can obtain a legal status equivalent to a "good citizen certificate," just like ordinary people.
With legal credentials issued by TPC, aliens can travel to extraterrestrial alliance headquarters around the world to collect a "pendant" that allows them to perfectly disguise themselves as humans.
Furthermore, if aliens encounter any intractable problems, they can seek help from the extraterrestrial alliance by presenting their legal credentials.
To be honest, TPC's attitude has, to some extent, facilitated the integration of extraterrestrials into Earth.
However, as mentioned earlier, not all extraterrestrials are willing to reveal their identities.
In this context, Sixth Avenue, where Earth's native aliens reside, became the choice for these extraterrestrials.
Not under the TPC's supervision, yet with strong law enforcement maintaining and supervising its order, isn't this another kind of extraterrestrial alliance?
Besides, on Sixth Avenue, no one cares what you look like, and you don't need to disguise yourself at all.
Because the residents of Sixth Avenue are definitely more bizarre-looking than you, aliens are nothing new on Sixth Avenue.
Over time, Sixth Avenue gradually became a place where aliens and Earthlings lived together.
Some aliens with cutting-edge technology have even imitated the existence of Sixth Avenue and created similar "black streets" in other parts of the Earth.
Lebik Avenue is such a "black street" located in North Africa.
This relatively unknown "black street" was built by a Lebik alien from the P143 Nebula.
Because of their striking resemblance to crows on Earth, other extraterrestrials also refer to the Lebik aliens as the Crow People.
It is said that the Lebik aliens were aliens who arrived on Earth before the TPC was officially established, and they witnessed the rise of the TPC and the appearance of the giants.
From any perspective, this Lebik alien belongs to the kind of law-abiding alien.
If the Lebik aliens hadn't revealed themselves, the GUTS team probably would never have known that they were actually a Lebik alien reconnaissance unit, spies planted on Earth by an alien civilization.
Yes, this Lebik alien came to Earth with malice.
However, after witnessing the rise of the TPC and a series of major events following the appearance of the giants, this Lebik alien suddenly had an epiphany.
He believes that humanity has now evolved into a true cosmic civilization.
To put the cart before the horse by creating a complete antagonism between humans and the Lebik aliens for some petty gains is utterly misguided.
Therefore, this Lebik alien disregarded the higher-ups on his home planet and resolutely reported himself to the Victory Team.
It cannot be denied that this Lebik alien's self-disclosure was partly out of goodwill.
But on a larger level, it's because this Lebik alien witnessed the power of human civilization and the goodwill that TPC showed to people in the universe.
The formation of the Extraterrestrial Alliance, the threat of the mechanical giants...
For various reasons, this Lebik alien chose to stand on the opposite side of his home planet, intending to ease the relationship and conflict between humans and Lebik aliens.

Chapter 362 Ancient Lost Civilization
In the Congo, Africa, in front of an inconspicuous bush.
"This is the Lebec Boulevard?"
Standing in front of a bush that was less than half his height, Daigo looked at Saki beside him with some surprise.
If it weren't for the other party's solemn assurance that this was a black market established by the Lebik aliens, he probably would never have dreamed that aliens were lurking in this place.
"Could it be that Lebec Avenue also possesses subspace technology?"
Although Lu Xuan had built the prototype of Sixth Avenue a long time ago, it does not mean that subspace technology is a very popular technology.
On the contrary, among the many aliens that Daigo had met, those who possessed similar technology were extremely rare.
To date, only Lu Xuan has been able to use subspace technology to build a permanent, long-term location.
"Of course not. Do you think the Lebik aliens are some advanced intelligent civilization?"
Saki glanced at Daigo with a hint of disdain, finding it hard to believe that the other party still hadn't grasped Lu Xuan's level.
Lu Xuan is a terrifying being capable of single-handedly rivaling an entire civilization.
God knows how far that guy's technology has progressed; in any case, it's absolutely impossible for a typical cosmic civilization to reach his level.
"Although the Lebik aliens are far inferior to Lu Xuan in terms of civilization level, they still have some merits."
"For example, the 'miniaturization technology' that even Lu Xuan praised..."
As if to prove her point, Saki took a step directly towards the bushes ahead.
The next second, Saki's body shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye and quickly disappeared in front of Daigo.
Seeing this, Daigo also tentatively took a step forward.
Then he discovered that the bushes in front of him were rapidly growing larger, gradually transforming into a towering behemoth resembling a forest.
"this?"
Suddenly looking up at the sky, Daigo realized that it wasn't the bushes that were getting bigger, but his own body that was shrinking.
From macro to micro, from giant to ant...
When Daigo took another step forward, it was as if he had passed through some unknown, dark passage and arrived in a miniature city.
"Welcome to the real Lebec Avenue!"
Standing at the entrance of the micro-city, the Lebik aliens, who had been waiting for a long time, smiled and gestured to Saki and Daigo.
Behind the Lebik aliens, all sorts of bizarre aliens were moving between the cities, and every now and then a fierce argument would break out.
......................................................................................................
A short while later, in the building right in the middle of Lebec Boulevard.
Saki, Daigo, and the Lebik aliens sat facing each other, with a tea set full of Eastern Zen aesthetics on the table in the middle.
