Luo found it somewhat difficult to understand Xiao Ran's way of thinking. "You mean that Fine-grade Getter is more valuable than that Epic-level Getter? Just because it has something called a Getter Ray Drive Engine inside it?"
"Yes. What is truly valuable is the Getter Ray, though unfortunately, it is only a low-power prototype." Xiao Ran shook his head and explained to Luo, "Getter Ray is a beam with evolutionary properties. It is an extremely complex thing. From what little I know, Getter Ray is, to some extent—or under a certain worldview—the source of evolution."
"This ray can evolve almost anything it irradiates. It can grant metal limitless ductility, flexibility, and regenerative properties. To us, those are the two most important aspects. With Getter Ray, we will have the foundation to manufacture Super Robot Mecha that belong to us, and that Fine-grade Getter will likewise possess limitless potential for evolution."
"Of course, where there is good, there is bad. Getter Ray seems to possess a will of its own. From one perspective, anything evolved by it will be influenced and assimilated by it. But in an environment like Prometheus, that is the least of our concerns. I doubt any will could be stronger than Prometheus."
"Prometheus would never allow any foreign impurity to run wild in a world under its jurisdiction. Since it was acknowledged by Prometheus and allowed to appear here, and since the data did not indicate any negative effects of Getter Ray, then all those negative effects must have been removed."
"In any case, Getter Ray is something worth studying carefully. As for that technical data, this is what I think: since it came from the same world, that material must have been armor used on Getter. But without irradiation from Getter Ray, that Technical Blueprint cannot
