Lu Xuan has used the pseudonym "Nikaido" several times already, so it's highly unlikely that outsiders will notice anything amiss.
"Hello, my name is Munakata Seiichi, and I am the vice commander of the Victory Team."
"The man next to me is Tetsuo Shinjo, the chief pilot of the Victory Team."
After politely shaking hands with Lu Xuan, Zong Fang gradually calmed his emotions and took the initiative to ask questions.
"Did your company only send you this time?"
According to Munakata's prediction, this kind of event involving the handling of giant biological remains is expected.
They should at least send a small team, if not a whole department.
However, no matter how long Zong Fang looked at the mechanical fortress, he never saw a second person come out of it.
"No, I came here specifically to find out what's going on."
"After confirming that there is no danger here, the company will probably send three to five dedicated cleaning teams over."
Despite showing distrust of the Victory Team, Lu Xuan's calm tone made it impossible for Zong Fang to get angry.
"So, you're just here to find out what's going on?"
He couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. As he spoke, Xincheng's gaze never left the mechanical fortress behind Lu Xuan.
"No, that's not it. Besides understanding the specific situation on site, I will also do some preliminary work."
Maintaining his "Nikaido" persona, Lu Xuan merely glanced at Shinjo indifferently.
"Preliminary work?"
"You mean that 'war fortress' behind you?"
By deliberately emphasizing the pronunciation of the words "war fortress," Xincheng made no attempt to hide his hostility towards Lu Xuan.
This inexplicable hostility made Lu Xuan frown repeatedly, unable to figure out where he had offended this ace pilot.
Fortunately, if I can't figure it out, I just stop thinking about it.
Lu Xuan never believed that the world had to revolve around him.
"This is not a war fortress, it's just a fully automated 'purification device'."
Emphasizing the pronunciation of the words "purification device," Lu Xuanxuan began explaining the functions of the all-terrain armored vehicle.
To demonstrate the technological prowess of Galvin Corporation to the winning team.
This was Lu Xuan's mission for this trip, and it was also part of Nikaido's character design.
If possible, we should promote this all-terrain armored vehicle as much as possible in order to exceed the expected goals.
After all, apart from TPC, probably no other organization or individual on Earth would dare to purchase such semi-military equipment.
"As you can see, this purification device is different from ordinary purification devices; it is portable."
“A small to medium-sized city only needs three to five of these purification devices to achieve large-scale disinfection and sterilization at the city level, fundamentally preventing the occurrence of viruses and germ warfare.”
"As for general urban disinfection work?"
"With this powerful purification device, there's no problem at all."
Lu Xuan paused slightly at this point.
"This purification device is the latest product from Galvin Corporation, equipped with the company's most cutting-edge technology."
"First is its top-of-the-line nuclear-powered electron accelerator."
"It can generate and release high-energy electron beams through autonomous acceleration and operation."
"When these electron beams irradiate sewage, they cause the water molecules in the sewage to decompose and generate strong oxidizing substances, which react with various organic pollutants, ultimately achieving the effects of oxidation decomposition and disinfection."
Admittedly, Lu Xuan's novel explanation did indeed distract Xin Cheng.
Using industrial-grade nuclear power and electron accelerators to purify polluted waters is a rare and advanced technology worldwide.
Lu Xuan's subsequent narration further astonished him with the powerful technological capabilities of the Galvin Corporation.
"Secondly, there is the built-in 'micro-nanofactory' that can continuously produce 'nanospheres' at the molecular level."
"Simply place these 'nano air discs' in polluted waters, and they will continuously generate microbubbles invisible to the naked eye, supplying oxygen to the entire water body."
"When these bubbles evaporate in the sunlight, they actively carry away the polluted substances, restoring the river's ecology and microbial environment."

PS: This volume mainly focuses on the Dark Giants, and will also introduce some settings that differ from the official version.
Or more precisely, it's a supplement to the official settings. I will try my best to make it self-consistent and avoid any major contradictions.
The other two Titans, who originally appeared as background characters, will likely be given more screen time.
Furthermore, the official description of Dyna as a "mobile version of the Plasma Spark Tower" is truly baffling...
Thankfully, I never intended for Dyna to be a permanent character in the first place, otherwise Earth could have entered an era where everyone evolves into a giant of light much earlier.
Chapter 219 The Darkness of Premature Resurgence
Lu Xuan was still explaining to Zong Fang and Xin Cheng the principles behind the mechanical fortress's ability to purify air and wastewater.
On the other side of the cordon, a gloomy-looking man with a cold expression walked through numerous obstacles and arrived at the beach, which was contaminated by the corpse of a giant monster.
"Zombie Monster - Silizan".
After gazing at the polluted ocean for a long time, the gloomy-looking man finally uttered a few words in a cold voice.
"Is it because darkness has revived prematurely?"
As the man turned around, his gaze swept across the coastline, as if he were seeing some unspeakable, dark entity deep within the Pacific Ocean.
Of the many futures the man envisions, the resurgence of the zombie monster Sylizan is inevitable.
It is a test of darkness for humanity, and also a challenge that humanity will inevitably face in the process of its rise.
To be honest, the man was not interested in the future fate of humanity.
Even if he could foresee the future and predict the coming of darkness...
But the man preferred to remain alone, coldly observing all of this unfold.
Until he saw the "Giant of Light" in the future.
I saw those two giants who, even under the oppression of darkness, still did not give up hope.
That was the first time in the man's long life that he had felt such a stirring emotion.
Why are they both monsters who are different from ordinary people, why are they both outcasts who are not accepted by their own kind...?
The "Giant of Light" was able to never abandon or give up on those mortals who were ultimately insignificant, risking his own life time and time again.
Faced with that "light" that could dispel the darkness in people's hearts, the man, who had always prided himself on being hard-hearted, was surprised to find that he had actually wavered.
That was fear, dread, and cowering...
The man had never been afraid of the darkness in the human heart, but he began to fear the light brought by the "Giant of Light".
That heartwarming light...
That ray of hope...
That light, so out of place in a dark future...
As his inner fears escalated and spread, the man finally made up his mind—he would witness the birth of light.
However, before that, the man decided to make contact with another "Giant of Light".
He is not human, nor even a life form in this universe...
At first, the man even thought that it was darkness existing in another form.
However, the man soon realized he was wrong.
If that giant is the sun illuminating the darkness, then this giant is the starlight traversing the universe.
The man could see the future affected by the giant's existence, but he could not observe the giant's existence itself.
The only certainty is that this giant did not have any conventional sense of good or evil.
Even with the influence of another giant, this giant still maintained a somewhat detached relationship with human society.
The man felt that the giant should be able to understand his situation and his thoughts.
"Lu Xuan, a Gaelic from another universe."
Muttering softly, the man walked slowly along the coastline toward the zombie monster.
"Can you resolve the confusion in my heart? Can you show me the way forward?"
......................................................................................................
"So, all that talk you just gave me was to try and sell us Galvin's 'water purification system'?"
With a slightly amused tone, Zong Fang, having finally figured out Lu Xuan's purpose, timely interrupted the other's speech.
He was afraid that if he didn't interrupt, the external affairs manager of Galvin Company could keep talking non-stop for a whole day.
"This isn't sales; it's just a collaboration."
Remembering his persona, Lu Xuan smiled and shrugged.
Because prioritizing the interests of the Galvin Corporation and never forgetting to promote the various products of the Galvin Corporation to outsiders, this was the persona that Tomoko initially created for Nikaido.
Moreover, immersing himself in and playing a pseudonym was a novel experience for Lu Xuan.
Seeing the slightly helpless expressions on Xincheng and Zongfang's faces, Lu Xuan felt a strange sense of pleasure.
"More importantly, have you investigated the origins of this giant beast's corpse?"
Not wanting to dwell on the matter any longer, Lu Xuan quickly changed the subject.
Looking at the remains of the giant beast not far away, Lu Xuan seemed to have a sense of déjà vu.
Because he vaguely remembered that a dead monster's corpse had indeed appeared in an episode of Ultraman Tiga TV.
Lu Xuan couldn't remember the specific details clearly, but he was certain that the monster had eventually been resurrected.
Unfortunately, it's unclear whether it's because the memories of the previous life are too distant, or because the TV series never mentioned the origin of this monster.
Anyway, Lu Xuan searched through all his memories but still couldn't figure out the other person's origins.
"Origin?"
Upon hearing this, Xincheng and Zongfang exchanged a glance.
As members of the Victory Team, who handle supernatural events worldwide, they naturally found relevant clues the moment the giant beast's corpse appeared.
Zong Fang felt he needed to seriously consider whether or not to provide these clues to the Galvin Company.
"Trust is the foundation of cooperation. I think your winning team should understand this principle, right?"
Seeing through their hesitation at a glance, Lu Xuan directly pointed it out.
"Now that you have decided to embark on a series of collaborations with Gailvin, there are some things that everyone must know."
"Besides, our Galvin Company is not a small company, and we will not lack any confidentiality clauses and procedures."
Hearing Lu Xuan say this, Zong Fang finally put away the troubled look on his face.
"Since that's the case, then I'll tell you!"
"However, as you yourself said, we can sign the relevant confidentiality clauses afterward, and the Victory team will always reserve the right to pursue legal action."
Seeing Zong Fang's serious expression, Lu Xuan seemed to sense something fishy about it.
It seems that the GUTS team has not only figured out the origin of this monster, but may even have uncovered some little-known dark history.
Only in this way can we explain why Munakata was so cautious.
It seems this monster's origins are not simple...
Lu Xuan rolled his eyes thoughtfully, but on the surface he remained calm and composed.
As it turned out, Zongfang's next words were indeed shocking, even revealing the little-known chaos and conflicts behind the scenes of this peaceful era.
