"elder brother?"
As he struggled to recall the memories he had lost, Xincheng fell silent upon unexpectedly seeing the pale blue light emanating from Maya.
"It wasn't just my imagination after all..."

PS: The next volume will be the Mechanical Titan arc.
After experiencing several threats from extraterrestrial civilizations, TPC finally decided to use its power to protect human civilization.
The next volume should be a major turning point, with humans creating their own "father," a consistent feature of the Ultraman series.
Next up is the mid-game boss in my outline—the Gods of Kiriel—who will soon make their official debut.
I haven't figured out how to write it yet, but it definitely won't be the simple boss-fighting process like the previous volumes.
I wanted to write about a total war, a declaration of war by the entire Kiriel civilization against human civilization, or rather, a declaration of war against the Galvinic forces.
The battle for the "name of the savior"!
Chapter 333 Max Power System
Tokyo, Japan, GUTS headquarters, F4 hangar on the 113th floor.
"Failed again..."
Looking at the Snow White, which had stalled again in the distance, Dr. Yao made no attempt to hide his disappointment and exhaustion.
Since receiving technical support from the Extraterrestrial Alliance, Dr. Yao, the chief researcher for the GUTS team, has been dedicated to researching new energy systems.
The Max dynamics theory that Lu Xuan obtained by chance came from this Dr. Yamata.
Unfortunately, unlike Lu Xuan, Dr. Yao, although he was the one who proposed this theory, was limited by the technical bottlenecks of TPC and Victory Team, and he was unable to truly bring this technology from theory to reality.
Not to mention, like Lu Xuan, who combined the Max propulsion system with zero-drive theory to achieve true faster-than-light flight.
Dr. Yao encountered numerous difficulties simply in making the Max power system practical and installing it on the Snow White's body.
As the sister machine of Victory Swallow No. 1, Snow White is almost the most advanced aircraft in Dr. Yao's possession.
Even with the strength of the Snow White's body, it could not withstand the impact of Max's power system.
The energy and photons generated by the collision of protons and antiprotons have exceeded the limits that the body can withstand.
Unless Dr. Yaowei can further improve the Max propulsion system, this system cannot enter the real experimental stage, let alone undergo experimental testing.
"Doctor, that's already incredibly impressive!"
As the backup pilot of the Snow White, Daigo watched everything that had just happened with a look of amazement, his tone filled with heartfelt admiration.
Although Lu Xuan has already brought the Max power system from theory to reality.
But that's Lu Xuan!
It's that all-powerful Doraemon!
In Daigo's mind, no matter how outrageous Lu Xuan's actions were, they were all perfectly reasonable.
However, Dr. Yamata is different. He is a genuine human being, and it is already quite remarkable that he was able to develop something as extravagant as the Max Propulsion System.
Based on Daigo's actual experience, the so-called "Max Propulsion System" is simply not a technology that humans should possess at this stage.
Something with near-infinite energy can accomplish all sorts of incredible feats even without Zero Drive.
According to Dr. Yao's estimate, once the Snow White is successfully equipped with the Max propulsion system, its top speed can be accelerated from Mach 8.5 to Mach 88.
"Sigh, there was clearly room for improvement..."
Dr. Yao, who hadn't taken Daigo's praise to heart and was focused solely on creating faster and stronger aircraft, sighed.
If the Snow White, as an experimental machine, fails to be completed, then the Arcdis, which carries Dr. Yamausagi's dream of being the fastest and strongest, will forever remain only in the theoretical stage.
"If we can engage in further technological cooperation with the extraterrestrial alliance, we may have the opportunity to break through the theoretical limits."
Faced with Dr. Yamaus's mutterings, Daigo, unable to comprehend his pursuit, could only blink and remain silent.
Just then, the cockpit of the Snow White was suddenly opened.
Lina, looking slightly tired, stepped down from the cockpit as the chief test pilot of Snow White.
"Lina, are you alright?"
He rushed forward to help Lina up, and Daigo asked her in a low voice with concern.
Compared to Dr. Yao's pursuits and dreams, Rena is the key reason why Daigo has always stayed by the side of the Snow White.
"It's nothing, I'm just a little dizzy."
The Snow White, which is not yet fully completed, is under too much strain, and even a top pilot like Lina is finding it difficult to cope.
"It's good that you're alright. I'll take you to the infirmary right away."
Supporting Lina as they walked towards the infirmary, Daigo's concern and care at that moment were definitely not those of ordinary teammates.
......................................................................................................
Kumamoto City, headquarters of the Galvin Group.
"what?"
Lu Xuan, who was conducting some kind of experiment, suddenly looked up and exclaimed in surprise at the abnormal signal on the screen.
"here we go again?"
As if in response to Lu Xuan's surprise and doubt, the abnormal signal band on the screen suddenly increased dramatically, followed by a sudden surge like a flash flood.
"Tomoko, how many times has this happened?"
Upon hearing Lu Xuan's question, Zhi Zi's voice echoed directly in his ear.
"Boss, this is the seventh time this month that we've detected it."
"Since the completion of the 'faster-than-light theoretical model,' similar signal bands have been frequently appearing on Earth."
"Based on Zhizi's reverse decoding of this signal, there is a 76.6% probability that the other party is looking for a 'faster-than-light theoretical model'."
The so-called "faster-than-light theoretical model" naturally refers to the combination of the "Max Dynamics Zero Drive System".
When dealing with the Reicuran alien fleet, Lu Xuan used this system to teleport himself and Daigo to the edge of Pluto in a short time, and then annihilated them in one fell swoop.
Since then, this signal band has frequently appeared on the Earth's surface.
Especially after Dr. Yao of the GUTS team began test flights of the Snow White, this signal band appeared even more frequently.
Unfortunately, Lu Xuan's "Max Power Zero Drive System" was directly controlled by Sophon.
While this signal band was mysterious, it did not escape the monitoring range of the sophon and could not find the true location of the "Max Power Zero Drive System".
On the contrary, Dr. Yao's frequent test flights of the Snow White seem to have been regarded as a half-finished product of the "faster-than-light theoretical model" by this signal band.
This mysterious signal appears whenever Dr. Yao conducts a test flight of the Snow White, and a certain threshold is detected.
"Is it possible to figure out the purpose of this mysterious signal?"
Although he already had a vague guess in his mind, Lu Xuan still wanted to hear Zhizi's analysis.
"Based on the current data, there is an 81.3% probability that this signal is hostile."
"Its existence is to prevent Earth's civilization from traveling faster than the speed of light."
"Combining the top-secret files of the TPC lunar base with Mr. Kazuma Asuka's experience, it can be basically concluded that some mysterious civilization is preventing Earth's civilization from entering the universe."
Here, Sophon does not use the term "human civilization," but rather the broader term "Earth civilization."
"Should we stop Earth's civilization from venturing into space?"
Touching his chin, Lu Xuan's expression remained unchanged.
Kazuma Asuka was attacked by an unknown light while conducting a faster-than-light experiment, which ultimately led to his fusion with the Hyakushiki Fighter and the transformation into the first Dyna.
"Is it an ancient civilization? Or an even more ancient being that once descended upon Earth?"
"What is their purpose in doing this? Why would they want to prevent Earth's civilization from venturing into space?"

Chapter 334: Steel Masked Man
Leaving aside Lu Xuan's various confusions for now, let's turn our attention back to Sixth Avenue.
As time has passed, Sixth Avenue has become increasingly prosperous, attracting more and more alien life forms to settle here.
Unlike the complete ignorance of human society.
Because of the large screen on Sixth Avenue, most of the Outcasts are aware of the power of Galvin and Ultraman Tiga, and know that they are the foundation of Sixth Avenue's existence.
The scene where Galvin and Tiga joined forces to destroy the Reicuran alien fleet was especially etched in the minds of all the onlookers.
Thanks to this, order on Sixth Avenue truly took shape from that day on.
No matter how fiercely you fight outside, once you enter Sixth Avenue, the use of any form of force is absolutely prohibited here.
With the presence of Shadow Mage Obik, Onimusha Ida Iryu, and the Nine-Tailed Lady, the prosperity of Sixth Avenue became a natural phenomenon.
However, few people know that the secondhand store located at the entrance of Sixth Avenue is a place where the bigwigs of this street often gather.
Aside from Lu Xuan, who rarely appears due to his personality, Da Gu comes here to spend two days a week.
The reason she came so frequently was partly because Saki had become busy with the affairs of the Extraterrestrial Alliance and entrusted most of the responsibility of taking care of Kari to Daigo.
On the other hand, it's because there are far more information channels here than with TPC and the Victory Team.
In addition to his daily missions with his GUTS teammates, Daigo also takes the initiative to come to Sixth Avenue to gather information and learn about more supernatural phenomena around the world.
After all, Daigo doesn't need to hide his identity here, and he can even get some unexpected help.
So, when Daigo arrived at the used goods store as usual, intending to help Lu Xuan with some business, he unexpectedly overheard Jia'er and Kuzuha Jiro's conversation.
......................................................................................................
"The steel-plate masked man?"
Looking at Kari, who nodded solemnly with surprise, Daigo couldn't help but cast a suspicious glance at Kuzuha Jiro, who was wearing a fox mask to the side.
"Jiro, I remember Lady Nine-Tailed Fox said that you were forbidden from instilling any nonsense ideas in Kari, right?"
Upon hearing this, Kuzunoha Jiro, who had just been looking smug, jumped up and angrily argued with Daigo.
"What do you mean by 'nonsense thoughts'? We're just telling the truth!"
"Recently, an urban legend called 'Steel Plate Mask Man' has actually emerged!"
"It is said that every night around midnight, a monster that wanders around the city like a ghost appears in every corner..."
"They have bodies forged from steel, and wear strange masks..."
"Some people tried to track these monsters, only to find that they appeared and disappeared out of thin air."
Out of the sensitivity of the GUTS team members, Daigo couldn't help but ask further.
"According to you, many people must have seen these 'steel-plate masked men'?"
Why didn't the Victory team receive similar reports?
The GUTS team is an organization that specializes in handling supernatural events. If too many people experience similar events, they will be reported to the GUTS team immediately.
"Because...those 'steel-plate masked men' didn't hurt anyone."
When he said those words, Kuzuha Jiro himself was actually a little unsure.
However, as far as he knew, it seemed that no one had been injured or killed because of this urban legend.
"The GUTS team's definition of supernatural events is not based on the number of casualties."
Daigo shook his head, denying Kuzuha Jiro's statement. The GUTS team's principle is to nip supernatural events in the bud.
If there are casualties, that would be the most urgent supernatural event, and if necessary, the Victory Swallow could be deployed directly.
"Well... it's probably because the 'Iron Mask' appears in relatively remote places..."
Thinking carefully about the sources of information he had obtained, Kuzuha Jiro seemed to suddenly realize something and shouted to Daigo with a look of surprise.
"No, it's because most of the people who encounter these 'steel-plate masked men' are outcasts like us."
