After the violent explosion, the remaining Daisymania ceased their engagement with the Gailvin.
Instead, they rushed into the flames of the explosion, intertwining and growing together at a visible speed.
"Is this also a characteristic of biometals?"
They stared in disbelief at what was happening not far away.
Lu Xuan felt that his scientific views had been shattered by these unreasonable Daisymanias.
Lu Xuan could accept it if these Daisymanias possessed biological properties, or even if they were to become a large-scale swarm of space drones.
After all, this was the creation of the Desimos aliens, which enabled them to travel through interstellar space.
If they don't even have the most basic transformation and disguise abilities, he would suspect that the Desimos aliens might be hiding something else.
But the key issue now is that these Daisymanias are clearly not just simple shapeshifters and camouflagers.
As time went on, the entangled and growing Daisymanias gradually grew into a "biometallic version" of GUTS-WING.
Compared to the original GUTS-WING, the Daisymania version of GUTS-WING retains some of its metallic texture, but exhibits more of a biological-like vitality.
Damaged structures can heal, attacks can lead to the evolution of corresponding defensive mechanisms, and they can even actively learn and adapt to new combat modes...
The most crucial issue is that the Daisymania version of GUTS-WING is clearly more than just a shell.
It devoured the matter and energy of the GUTS-WING and replicated its internal structure 1:1, thus acquiring all of the GUTS-WING's functions.
No, it's not as simple as just recreating the GUTS-WING.
Through the scanning and analysis of the Gaelvin, Lu Xuan clearly saw that the Daisymania version of the GUTS-WING, which was not far away, had successfully "grown" weapon systems that the original GUTS-WING did not have.
Silence! Silence! Silence!
Those powerful laser beams clearly originated from the original Daisymania.
This means that they can not only learn and imitate new material structures, but also retain their original functions accordingly.
Chapter 15 Malice from the Universe (New book, please read!)
"Cough cough, what the hell is that?!"
Stunned by what was happening above him, Tetsuo Shinjo, who had managed to jump from the plane at the last second, floated on the water, barely managing to withstand the relentless onslaught of the waves.
"Hey Hey hey!"
"New City team members, can you hear me?"
"New City team members, please respond!"
……
Amidst a series of crackling electrical sounds, Tetsuo Shinjo laboriously reached out and activated his waterproof headset, successfully re-establishing contact with the G Agency.
“I can hear you, but now is not the time to talk about this…”
"I think I've seen something incredible! Can that thing still be considered the GUTS-WING?!"
After hearing Tetsuo Shinjo's reply, Megumi Iruma and Mizuki Noboru on the other end of the communicator visibly breathed a sigh of relief.
The prototype of GUTS-WING is certainly valuable.
As one of the most outstanding top pilots within TPC, Tetsuo Shinjo's value is not much less.
Moreover, through their previous interactions and time with Tetsuo Shinjo, both Megumi and Mizuki had developed a considerable fondness for this unconventional "new team member."
Captain Megumi even had the idea of recruiting him—once this mission was over, she would definitely find a way to transfer Tetsuo Shinjo to the G Agency.
"That thing is definitely not the GUTS-WING!"
At Tetsuo Shinjo's prompting, Nozue at the base promptly accessed a satellite over Tokyo Bay and spotted the Daisymania version of the GUTS-WING.
"What is this thing? It looks alive!"
Thanks to the pilot's exceptional eyesight, Tetsuo Shinjo felt as if he could see the surface of the Daisymania version of the GUTS-WING wriggling.
Just like a living organism, the parts hit by the microwave cannon are healing themselves at a visible speed.
"It is indeed alive; the special metal that makes it up has biological properties and can heal itself to some extent."
By launching high-altitude satellites to conduct comprehensive scans, Nori quickly arrived at an astonishing conclusion.
"After attacking the GUTS-WING, it also acted out of biological evolutionary instincts, quickly mimicking a similar structure!"
Upon hearing Nori's analysis, both Shinjo Tetsuo on the other end of the communicator and Iruma Megumi on the other end fell silent.
A metallic life form with biological characteristics, a GUTS-WING that can continuously evolve...
This is by no means a good thing for the Earth today.
"Can its opponents defeat it?"
"I mean, the alien who saved me before."
After a brief silence, Tetsuo Shinjo was the first to recover from his shock and then asked a crucial question.
......................................................................................................
"Doesn't this damned thing have any weaknesses?"
After witnessing yet another wound caused by the microwave cannon heal rapidly, Lu Xuan couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.
To say that this Daisymania version of the GUTS-WING is that powerful is an understatement.
After all, neither the Daisy Mania, which served as its prototype, nor the GUTS-WING, a product of current Earth's advanced technology, are a match for the Gelvin.
The key problem is that the Daisymania aircraft, which combines the advantages of both, is quite troublesome in other aspects.
With its biological properties, the Daisymania spacecraft is completely immune to any damage.
They exchanged blows with the Gailvin time and time again, just to gain that slight advantage.
If this situation continues, even with a more robust defense system, the Gailvin might not be able to withstand the Daisymania aircraft for long.
Lu Xuan was clearly aware of this as well, so he immediately changed his fighting style and began to look for the true weakness of the Daisymania aircraft.
"AI system, have you located the source of the unknown radio wave just now?"
After several more rounds of combat, the AI finally gave Lu Xuan some "good news" that wasn't exactly good.
"After analyzing and searching for the source of the radio waves..."
"It can now be confirmed that the unknown radio waves did not originate from the previous individual Desimos alien."
Lu Xuan forced a smile and asked, as he struggled to control the Galvin in its battle against the Daisymania spacecraft.
"So, that Desimos alien is indeed dead?"
After the red marker flashed a few times on the radar, the AI's indifferent voice sounded again.
"Yes, the remains of an individual Desimos alien have also been found in the sea below us."
"The unknown radio wave from earlier originated from the Bohai Sea region of Asia..."
"It only activated the underlying transformation program of Daisymania, but did not take away the control of Daisymania from the individual Daisymos aliens."
Upon hearing what the AI said, Lu Xuan immediately thought of the "Sleeping Beauty" recorded in the top-secret TPC documents.
It seems that the previous location radio waves most likely originated from the "Sleeping Beauty," whose purpose was simply to activate Daisymania's transformation program and avenge her own kind.
"So here's the problem: this thing seems to be moving towards Tokyo, right?"
Looking at the movement on the radar display, Lu Xuan could clearly see that the battlefield was shifting towards Tokyo.
The Daisymania spacecraft can indeed repair its own damage time and time again.
However, in the process of repairing its own damage, the Daisymania spacecraft, like all living organisms, requires a large amount of energy and matter to consume.
Even with the supplies and energy provided by the GUTS-WING.
After such intense fighting, the Daisymania spacecraft will inevitably fall into a phase of energy and material shortages.
And in the vicinity of Tokyo Bay, the only place that can replenish energy and materials on a large scale is the modern metropolis of Tokyo.
"Calculating the flight path of the Daisymania spacecraft, target confirmed—Shinjuku, Tokyo!"
With a cold reply from the AI, the Daisymania spacecraft finally stopped entangled with the Galvin and turned directly towards Shinjuku, Tokyo.
Silence—Boom!
At this moment, the Daisymania spacecraft was like a hungry beast, instinctively flying towards the place it thought had the most food.
The high-speed movement transformed into a deafening explosion, like the roar of a prehistoric beast.
Silence—Boom!
Where the sonic boom passed, giant waves surged and glass shattered.
Countless night owls looked up at the fleeting red light in the sky.
Having received a warning from the TPC, the Japanese government acted decisively and began an emergency evacuation of residents along the route of the Daisymania spacecraft.
Even so, the massive waves and sonic booms that swept in still caused considerable casualties.
This day marked the first time that ordinary people in the human world experienced such naked malice from beyond Earth.

Chapter 16 The Boy Who Looks Up at the Sky
The dormitory building for the Department of Architecture at Waseda University, Shinjuku, Tokyo, Japan.
A teenager stared in disbelief at the fierce aerial battle taking place right above him.
Whether it was the intense firefight or the unimaginable speed, it all demonstrated that the two unidentified flying objects in the sky possessed power far exceeding current technology.
However, for some reason, the boy felt a shiver run down his spine as he watched the intense aerial battle.
It was longing, it was envy, it was an innate impulse...
What is that?!
[A TPC spacecraft? Or an alien invasion?]
The boy's impulse and desire to fly were sown when he was about ten years old, when he first witnessed a large rocket launch on Amami Oshima.
This impulse and desire became even stronger when I heard TPC broadcast news last year about wanting to establish a response investigation team composed of the younger generation.
This special response and investigation team has a brand-new aircraft with a unique yellow paint scheme.
While the news was being broadcast, the boy's entire attention was focused on the brand-new aircraft, and he didn't realize what the news meant until it was over.
Unfortunately, the boy's adoptive parents had high hopes for him.
Unwilling to disappoint such expectations, the boy ultimately decided to give up his desire and impulse to fly.
He chose to follow his adoptive father's advice and dutifully applied to the architecture department of Waseda University in Tokyo, aiming to become an excellent architect.
Even though he had already given up in reality, the boy still longed deep down to become a professional pilot and soar through the skies.
So every night when no one was around, the boy would secretly climb to the top floor of the dormitory building, look up at the starry sky, and imagine what it would feel like to roam among it.
In a sense, it was inevitable that the boy would be able to witness the fierce air battle over Tokyo tonight.
boom!
Just as more and more people were awakened and drawn to the fierce battle in the sky.
One of the aircraft was suddenly hit directly by a microwave cannon shot from the enemy, and then plummeted straight down to the top floor of the dormitory building where the boy was located.
"what?"
Never expecting to encounter such an unwarranted disaster, the boy was stunned at first, and then instinctively took off running.
The other aircraft engaged in combat with it was clearly aware of this as well.
The aircraft, which clearly held the advantage, surprisingly abandoned its plan to press its advantage and instead fired a tractor beam, pulling the boy into a streak of light before the aircraft crashed.
......................................................................................................
"What stupid thing have you done now?! You idiot!"
Watching helplessly as his AI system squandered this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Lu Xuan in the cockpit couldn't help but roar.
