Given that the other party is the human form of Ultraman Tiga, Lu Xuan really couldn't think of anything that would be beyond his capabilities.
"They're aliens! New aliens have appeared on Earth!"
Lu Xuan blinked involuntarily, looked at Daigo who was still a little out of breath, and asked a question with great confusion.
"Is that so strange? It's not like this is your first time encountering aliens."
Upon hearing this, Daigo realized that he had been too concerned and had forgotten that this was not the GUTS base, but the Sixth Avenue, where aliens and various other beings often appeared.
"This time is different. These aliens... should we call them 'invaders'?"
"No, none of that matters. What matters is that the aliens attacked Commander Nanase's spacecraft!"
Still somewhat confused, Lu Xuan stared at Daigo. He felt that if this were the GUTS team, unaware of Daigo's identity, his statements wouldn't be too problematic.
But the key point is, this is Sixth Avenue!
To put it bluntly, including Daigo himself, who among those present wasn't a rarer being than an alien?
Even if aliens attacked TPC's spacecraft, it shouldn't have made Daigo so panicked, right?
"Lina's surname is Nanase."
Seeing this, Kirino Makio, who had been watching with a smile, spoke up to offer a reminder.
"Nanase Makoto, the stationmaster of the Space Delta Station, is also a well-known dove within TPC."
Upon hearing this, Lu Xuan suddenly understood.
So it turns out the person attacked was Daigo's future father-in-law?
Thinking of Daigo rushing to Sixth Avenue for help, a thought suddenly flashed through Lu Xuan's mind.
"Lina...she went alone?"

Chapter 319 Diplomacy Between Civilizations
Just last night, Delta Space Station.
An unusual signal appeared in Earth's outer orbit, and TPC immediately traced its source.
They then discovered that the signal originated from an unknown spaceship.
This is the first time that humanity has truly discovered a UFO that can be communicated with, so it is natural to intend to have the Delta Space Station communicate and exchange information with it.
Unfortunately, the UFO clearly did not expect that Earth's technology would be able to detect its whereabouts.
So when TPC tried to communicate with it, it was surprised to find that the other party was flying directly towards Delta Space Station.
This is clearly not a coincidence.
Flying in space is a completely different concept from driving on the ground.
With its three-dimensional space encompassing all directions, plus the aircraft's onboard detection radar, it is virtually impossible for two aircraft to collide passively.
Or, to put it another way, the vastness of space covered by Earth's outer orbit.
The probability of an unidentified flying object colliding with the Delta space is about the same as the probability of two ants meeting on a lawn with a radius of hundreds of miles.
It's not that this possibility doesn't exist, but rather that it's almost zero.
Upon realizing the hostility emanating from the unidentified flying object, TPC executives immediately decided to retaliate.
Among them, the most hawkish voices came from the top management of TPC.
Even when the Delta Space Station commander, Makoto Nanase, showed signs of compromise, he insisted that the other party launch a counterattack against the unidentified flying object.
According to the hawks at TPC, the unidentified flying object that appeared tonight is very likely a test of Earth by other extraterrestrial civilizations.
If Earth's response is too weak, similar events may occur one after another.
Regardless of the reason why this unidentified flying object deliberately crashed into the Delta Space Station.
The only thing Earth can do is to decisively shoot it down.
At this crucial moment when human civilization is about to enter the universe, TPC will absolutely not allow any accident to happen.
On this point, even Sawai Soichiro, the leader of the entire dove faction, showed a tough stance.
—A desire for peace does not mean a fear of war.
Conversely, only by taking decisive action and demonstrating military force when faced with malice can one maximize the pursuit of the peace one desires.
Under Sawai Soichiro's orders, even the most dovish Nanase Makoto had no choice but to obey.
As expected, the Bakir gun on the Delta Space Station, the pinnacle of human space technology, successfully shot down the unidentified flying object that resembled an "alien spacecraft."
Unfortunately, although the Delta Force shot down the UFO, its debris fell from space to the Earth's surface.
To prevent those cosmic debris from harming human society, the Delta Space Station immediately decided to deploy spacecraft to intercept and recover them.
Nanase Makoto took the lead and rushed to the front line immediately.
If things had only progressed this far, it would have been nothing more than a "diplomatic incident" caused by the aliens' refusal to communicate.
However, to everyone's surprise, the UFO that was destroyed at that time actually released a small escape pod at the last moment.
The Delta Space Station crew, led by Makoto Nanase, were attacked by survivors in the escape pods while intercepting and recovering the wreckage.
Aside from knowing that there was one survivor inside the escape pod, TPC knew nothing more.
When the news reached the GUTS headquarters, everyone, including Daigo, was shocked and didn't know what to say.
This is the first time since the establishment of the Extraterrestrial Alliance that aliens have actively harmed humans, and its heinous nature is no less than that of the Shinjuku incident.
If not handled properly, it could potentially affect the attitude and relationship between human civilization and cosmic civilization.
......................................................................................................
"Why does this plot seem so familiar?"
With a hint of sarcasm, Lu Xuan shook his head and sighed helplessly.
"Is the next plot going to be a massive invasion of Earth by some unknown civilization in search of its missing members?"
"And then it's a war between two civilizations?"
"The victor will dominate and colonize the other, while the loser will lose everything."
Hearing Lu Xuan's undisguised sarcasm, everyone present fell silent.
"Actually... it's more likely that Earth defeated the invaders, but couldn't find their star system coordinates."
With a calm yet resolute tone, Kirino Makio seemed to have foreseen a certain possibility in the future, setting the tone for this invasion with a prescient statement.
"This is a 'test' that is entirely detrimental to human civilization."
"If we fail, human civilization will become the spoils of the victors."
"As for success, humanity has only defended its own home."
Upon hearing this, Daigo realized the seriousness of the problem, and his face suddenly turned grim.
This incident is definitely not just a simple alien spaceship crash; the implications and possibilities involved are far too complex.
“Nalina, she…”
It was only at this moment that Daigo finally understood why none of the GUTS members, including the captain, had chosen to attack immediately.
This is not just because of the division of responsibilities in this accident.
Furthermore, the slightest misstep could trigger a war with an unknown civilization.
"This incident does fall under the jurisdiction of the Extraterrestrial Alliance, but it is not entirely their responsibility."
The Victory Team's mission is to handle supernatural events worldwide.
Before the formation of the Extraterrestrial Alliance, similar alien invasions were within their scope of handling.
However, ever since Saki formed the Extraterrestrial League, similar unclear responsibilities have begun to be clearly defined, and the Victory Team has naturally become more constrained when dealing with similar incidents.
Upon hearing that her father had been kidnapped by aliens, Nanase Rena's unauthorized action was, in a sense, an overreach of her authority.
Let's join forces!
Seeing Daigo's worry at a glance, Lu Xuan smiled and reassured him.
"Go back to the Victory Team immediately and tell your captain that this incident was a joint operation between the Extraterrestrial Alliance and the Victory Team."
"Saki will submit a temporary emergency request and will not hold Lina responsible."
Lu Xuan knew that Daigo was very smart and eager to learn, but Keiji was a genuine political strongman and a seasoned veteran.
The fact that Daigo immediately thought of seeking help from me suggests that he likely received a hint from Megumi Kijima, rather than that he had truly figured out the whole story on his own.
"Your Victory Team will go to the scene first and establish a curfew. The members of the Extraterrestrial Alliance will arrive shortly."

Chapter 320 UFO Crash Site
An hour later, at TPC's Far East base headquarters.
As Megumi watched the Victory Flying Swallow II gradually disappear from the screen, she was amazed by the relationship between Daigo and the Galvin Group.
For such a major incident, Daigo only had to ask President Tony for help, and the Extraterrestrial Alliance took full responsibility for the incident without hesitation.
This level of trust clearly goes beyond the normal "superior-subordinate" scope.
At the same time, Megumi also began to seriously consider the relationship between President Tony and the alien princess.
It is obvious that the relationship between the alien princess and the Galvin Group is not simply one of supporter and supported.
"Captain, the Status Alliance has already taken action."
Just as Megumi was deep in thought, Nori, who was keeping a close eye on the movements of the Extraterrestrial Alliance, suddenly shouted loudly.
"The one leading the team this time is that alien princess!"
"She also applied to TPC for permission to use large numbers of drones, as well as the scope of use of a special protective force field!"
Upon hearing this, Megumi Kijima became even more certain of her guess.
In past incidents involving extraterrestrials, the Extraterrestrial Alliance usually only sends one or two agents to the scene.
This time, Saki personally led the team and even applied for permission to use drones and special protective fields in advance.
This is enough to show how much importance the other party attaches to this accident.
"Besides that alien princess, who else went to the scene this time?"
Although the Extraterrestrial Alliance is the diplomatic arm of TPC, it is not composed solely of humans.
Given the unique independence of the external alliance, even the Victory team was unaware of the personnel changes within it.
"In addition to the normal human agents, there are two aliens from other planets accompanying the alien princess on this mission."
"One is the registered Gaelic, from whom it is said that most of the alien princess's technology originated."
"The other one is... an unknown alien who just registered?"
Suddenly widening his eyes, Ye Rui said with a look of surprise.
"A suspected possession of the 'Ebloon Individual,' with the target confirmed to have lost all memories of the past?"
"Was the first place where it was seen was at the Starry Night Bar in Tokyo, Japan?"
"Isn't Xincheng just coming back from that bar?"
......................................................................................................
Near a huge mountain forest in Kyushu, Japan.
"So, why did you bring me along too?"
With a deathly pale face, Ryan followed closely behind Lu Xuan, feeling as if he had been drawn into some terrible event.
Leaving aside the mysterious Sixth Avenue, and the fact that Lu Xuan decided on the joint operation between the Extraterrestrial Alliance and the Victory Team with just a few words...
Just the intercity transportation I just took is definitely not something that ordinary forces could possess.
If Ryan remembers correctly, it seems to be the rumored "intercity rail train"—a future intercity transportation mode to replace airplanes.
