Chapter 785: Chapter 488: Godzilla_2

It seemed to be responding to some kind of summons, its steps and direction unnaturally determined, as if there was something very important in the Pacific Ocean.

With each step, it caused seismic tremors across a significant part of Antarctica; many Antarctic research stations turned to dust in its wake.

Fortunately, personnel at those research stations detected the commotion before the Ice Ridge Dragon arrived and took shelter in safe zones in advance.

They barely hid behind cover, watching the sky-obliterating Ice Ridge Dragon and the ruined buildings and icebergs turned to countless fragments beneath its feet, their eyes revealing utmost horror.

Amidst their panic, they nonetheless made sure to capture the scene on camera, though the footage was shaky from the tremors and very blurry due to the heavy snowstorm.

Yet, it still showed a colossal beast over a hundred meters tall, slowly walking across the ice-laden expanse of Antarctica. Occasionally, a thunderous cracking sound was heard, the sound of ice breaking like glass.

Though its movements seemed extremely slow, that was merely due to its massive size, with the atmosphere adding resistance to its motions. From a macroscopic view, its speed was still astonishing, nearly approaching the speed of sound, with visible shockwaves from friction, as each of its steps was equivalent to dozens or even hundreds of strides for other creatures.

On the Ice Ridge Dragon’s body, between its scales, blue-white mist emerged, mingling with ice and snow, swirling around it, while the surrounding space seemed to warp slightly, giving the scene a sci-fi appearance. This was due to its body absorbing sunlight, causing visual distortion, while strong tremors and the high-density energy of its body also created abnormal magnetic fields, forming visible magnetic storm ripples like auroras in the night sky.

What’s more frightening was that beneath its scaly armor seemed to flow high-energy substances akin to magma, flashing with its breathing rhythm, making it resemble the nuclear-powered Godzilla from movies, as if it could unleash a destructive plasma energy blaze at any moment.

Several researchers hiding behind cover looked at this monster, seemingly capable of destroying a city in an instant, and hurriedly exclaimed:

"Quick, send this news back to the country!"

"Earth... might be in for a big problem!"

······················

······················

Half a day later, the video recorded by the researchers finally reached the country they belonged to.

But at the same time, the Ice Ridge Dragon had already left Antarctica and started moving through the ocean. With each massive step, it stirred up giant waves in the sea. As it moved slowly, countless small fish and shrimp entered its feeding organs, along with continuous energy transfer from the Sun. Its size gradually increased to 150 meters.

At this point, many countries began to notice this gigantic creature moving towards the Pacific Ocean.

It’s important to know that this is the era of technology; any anomaly on Earth can be immediately detected by scientists from various countries.

Some disasters that won’t threaten humanity in the short term might still be concealed by nations to prevent widespread panic and social disorder. But for an event likely to cause destruction of nations or even the world, there’s no need for concealment.

Concealment would only have an adverse effect.

Therefore, the country’s top leaders quickly disseminated the news through media and newspapers.

As the news was so explosive, media reporters from various countries raced to cover the story.

The so-called "Godzilla" video suddenly spread across the internet for unknown reasons.

The video’s content was exactly the close-up video recorded by the researchers near the ruins of the research station. Up close, the terrifying dragon over a hundred meters tall was immensely oppressive, surrounded by countless high-energy substances that distorted visual space.

Unsurprisingly, the video rapidly reached billions of views. Numerous netizens fiercely discussed the video. Since the event was broadcasted by media from various countries, and given that they had already witnessed the emergence of true Extraordinary Beings in the past year, almost no one doubted the video’s authenticity.

In the video, countless comments flew by like raindrops, reminiscent of the scene when Wang Ye resisted a nuclear blast, but even more exaggerated.

Because when Wang Ye resisted the nuclear blast, their safety wasn’t threatened, but this suspected Godzilla monster could threaten their safety.

It could even threaten the safety of all human civilization.

[No way, is this real?]

[Godzilla really appeared?]

[No, look closely, this is completely different from Godzilla, it’s just a regular dinosaur.]

[Your regular dinosaur is over a hundred meters tall?]

[It’s just an enlarged dinosaur, why the fuss?]

[This should be the Ice Ridge Dragon, it has a hint of the Ice Ridge Dragon, but its scale color and form seem different from a typical Ice Ridge Dragon. It must have mutated; look closely, there seems to be some high-energy substance flowing beneath its scales.]

[This thing won’t release rays like the monsters in Ultraman, will it?]

[Looks like it.]

[Logically, a creature this size shouldn’t exist on Earth.]

[Why not? Anything is possible; existence is rational.]

[It’s hard to explain, but it’s impossible for it to exist. Whether it’s oxygen requirements or energy requirements, it’s hard for such a creature to exist long-term on Earth. Its size requires an enormous amount of energy; it could empty an entire ocean in a month, believe it or not.]

[Indeed, and with such height and mass, extremely dense matter is needed to support it. The firepower humans pride themselves on may be utterly ineffective against this creature, as something sustaining such weight’s movement should withstand missile and artillery bombardments unless humans possess weapons stronger than hydrogen bombs.]

[Of course, we have a trump card.]

[What trump card?]

[Wang Ye!]

[Now that you mention it, I’m really curious what it would be like if Wang Ye faced this monster...]

[The strongest man who survived a nuclear explosion vs. a hundred-meter-tall monster.]

[Just imagining it is thrilling!]

[This is way more exciting than watching creatures of the same size battle!]

[Judging by the combat power scale from ordinary people, brick-breaking, wall-breaking, house-breaking, building-breaking, street-breaking, district-breaking, city-breaking, island-breaking, province-breaking, country-breaking, continental-breaking, surface-breaking, moon-breaking, star-breaking, to fixed star-breaking, this monster’s destructive power should be at the super explosion city level.]

[Looking at Wang Ye, based on current performance, he should also be in the super explosion city to province-breaking level...]

······················

······················

Faced with a strong survival threat, most people didn’t panic excessively.

Instead, they continued to eat and drink, go to work, and attend school, with no signs of an impending apocalypse or anything.

This was because after witnessing Wang Ye’s combat power, people on Earth had broadened their horizons.

Now, seeing such a monster brought only surprise, with not much fear.

More people became keen on comparing the combat power of this "Godzilla" with Wang Ye,

just like novel readers enjoy comparing character strengths. This digital cricket fighting segment often became many people’s favorite.
