Chapter 589 Ugly Rejection
Lin Bei was just about to activate the power of the Shadow King to help Godzilla when Godzilla looked up at him and let out a low growl.
This was a warning to him not to interfere.
Lin Bei paused, shrugged helplessly, withdrew his hand, and quietly watched the battle below.
Godzilla refocused its attention on Rodan, roaring as it fought him.
Fortunately, Godzilla didn't keep Lin Bei waiting for long. He saw Godzilla pull off Rodan's wings, pry open Rodan's mouth, aim it, and release atomic breath into Rodan's mouth.
Just as Godzilla unleashed its atomic breath, a burst of intensely hot, radioactive energy transformed into a silvery-white light and pierced straight through Rodan.
Rodan, who had been struggling, suddenly stopped moving and slumped down, dying at Godzilla's hands.
High in the sky, Lin Bei raised an eyebrow slightly, thinking that although the atomic breath technique was a bit barbaric, it looked very useful. He stroked his chin and thought for a moment, then waved his hand, snatching the move from Godzilla.
Below, Godzilla casually tossed Rodan's corpse aside, then slowly raised its head to look at Lin Bei, as if sensing what Lin Bei had done to it.
However, Godzilla is not as belligerent as Rodan and King Ghidorah. It has no interest in launching an attack on a human. Besides, Godzilla sensed the immense power emanating from Lin Bei and knew that this human was not to be trifled with.
Godzilla exhaled air from its nostrils, slowly turned around, and walked heavily toward the ocean.
Now that King Ghidorah, which threatened the Earth's ecological balance, is dead, it can return to the seabed and rest in peace.
When another monster threatening the ecological balance appears, it will return again.
As Godzilla's heavy steps echoed, the earth trembled slightly. Amidst this tremor, Dr. Serizawa and his soldiers in the distance finally snapped out of their daze. The commander immediately ordered the soldiers to continue tracking Godzilla to prevent any further accidents.
Just then, Dr. Serizawa finally spotted Lin Bei in the air again. He saw that the human was descending in a certain direction, so Dr. Serizawa quickly ordered his superior to drive to the place where Lin Bei had landed.
The direction Lin Bei landed was the same as the direction Constantine was in.
Because of Lin Bei's intervention, only one-third of the coastal city was destroyed. The people in the remaining safe areas, seeing that the situation had not affected them and because they didn't care much about life and death, all ran back before the crisis was over.
Eating and drinking as usual, it was only afternoon, and Constantine was already drinking with the locals at a bar, watching beautiful women dance on the table.
When the bar door was kicked open, Constantine, holding a bottle, glanced lazily at the newcomer and grinned as he raised the bottle: "Hey, Lin Bei, our savior is back! Listen up, this is the guy who single-handedly killed the monster. Without him, you wouldn't be back here drinking right now!"
No one knew how Constantine had become so familiar with the locals in such a short time. As Constantine finished speaking, no one around him raised any questions and instead raised their glasses in celebration to thank Lin Bei.
Some people even ran up to Lin Bei and shoved him to join in the celebration.
Lin Bei was both amused and exasperated, but considering that Constantine was so drunk that he couldn't drive, he decided to stay there for a few days until Constantine sobered up.
Just as the bar was engrossed in revelry, the door was kicked open again.
Before anyone could see who it was, a cacophony of footsteps rushed in, followed by the music stopping, the lights being turned on, and a man in military uniform walking to the top of the stage. He snatched the microphone and shouted sternly, "Quiet down! We need your cooperation in the investigation. No one is allowed to leave!"
Surrounded by beautiful women, Lin Bei sat below. He slightly raised his eyes, looked at the officials on the stage, and sneered, "What, instead of helping to clean up the damaged streets, you come here to interfere with our drinking and celebration? Aren't you being a bit too nosy?"
The blonde, blue-eyed beauties around Lin Bei cheered and laughed in support, which eased the somewhat oppressive atmosphere considerably.
Constantine, having regained some of his senses from his drunkenness, steadied himself with the help of others, pointed at his superior on the high floor, and grinned, "We've seen plenty of officers like you along the way. What's wrong? Everyone else is eagerly handing us money, but you're here to interrogate us? You're not here to arrest Lin Bei, are you? Just because he killed a monster?"
When Lin Bei arrived, Constantine had asked him about it and, upon learning that Lin Bei had killed a monster on his own, he urged everyone to celebrate with him.
Now that he said this, many of the drunken men around him assumed that the officer had come to cause trouble for Lin Bei, so they picked up empty wine bottles and waved them at the soldiers around them, as if to say, "Don't think you can bully them."
The officer's expression immediately darkened when he saw that the group of people below dared to provoke them.
Just as he was about to teach these drunkards a lesson, a thin figure finally squeezed through the crowd, quickly approached the officer, and took the microphone from his hand.
This man was none other than Dr. Serizawa. He adjusted his glasses and, while searching below, spoke kindly, "Everyone, please don't be nervous, don't misunderstand. We're not here to cause trouble. We've come to thank the person who killed the monster, and I personally have something to discuss with him..."
As they were talking, Dr. Serizawa's gaze finally fell on the person who was being fawned over below. He looked closely and exclaimed with delight, "Yes, yes, it's you, sir! Would you please come with us to a quiet place to talk? Of course, we'll give you a fair reward!"
Lin Bei rested one hand on the back of the sofa and chuckled, "You think I'll just go because you say so? Get this straight, you're the ones coming to me, not the other way around. Let's talk about it when we're sober."
Lin Bei's attitude was far from polite, and the senior official's expression was already quite unpleasant, but Dr. Serizawa held a completely different view.
Please, this person in front of me is the one who single-handedly killed King Ghidorah, the "Zero Monster." He is powerful and mysterious, so it's best to cooperate with him in everything to have any chance of unraveling this series of secrets.
For example, why he can fly, why he can summon a fire dragon, and how he killed Ghidorah instantly—only the person in front of him can explain these things clearly.
Dr. Serizawa handed the microphone back to his superior, whispered a few words of comfort, and then hurriedly ran down to Lin Bei, politely extending his hand: "Hello sir, as long as you are willing to answer our questions, everything will be done according to your request. May I ask your name? Oh, by the way, I am Serizawa, and I am in charge of..."
Before he could finish speaking, Lin Bei waved his hand and said indifferently, "I know you, Dr. Serizawa, the doctor who specializes in researching giant monsters, and you have dedicated your life to Godzilla. I am Lin Bei. I don't dislike you. Can you let these people leave here? I will come to your combat base to find you in two hours."
After receiving Lin Bei's words, Dr. Serizawa breathed a long sigh of relief, thanked Lin Bei for his cooperation, and then signaled to his superior that they could retreat.
Although the officer was very unhappy, Dr. Serizawa had indeed helped them a lot, and thanks to his help, the casualty rate of their army, which was specifically responsible for tracking the monsters, dropped sharply. Considering this contribution, the officer wouldn't refuse Dr. Serizawa's request.
The officer glanced coldly at the drunkards below, snorted, and waved his hand, leading everyone away.
After they had all left the bar, the crowd exclaimed and swarmed around Lin Bei, praising his skill.
Lin Bei snapped his fingers casually: "I know I'm capable. Stop pouring Constantine into my hands. I need him to help me out in two hours."
Lin Bei quickly won over everyone in the bar. No one dared to disobey him. So, two strong men grabbed Constantine and threw him onto the bar's high platform, leaving him sprawled there. The music and dancing continued, and the bar became noisy again.
Two hours later, Lin Bei carried Constantine, who was half sober, out of the bar. It was just getting dark outside. Lin Bei stretched and said, "I really can't live this hedonistic life for too long. I'm going to ruin myself."
Constantine yawned: "So what are you going to do? Let me tell you, I can't drive right now..."
Lin Bei chuckled, ignoring Constantine, and instead leaped with Constantine towards the distant combat base where Dr. Serizawa was located.
Although Godzilla has returned to the seabed, the other monsters have not yet completely chosen to hibernate, and they still need to be monitored at all times.
When Lin Bei and Constantine landed in the open space in the center of the combat base from high altitude, the soldiers who were busy moving weapons around them were all startled and raised their guns to aim at Lin Bei and Constantine.
Some soldiers immediately sounded the alarm, and red lights flashed across the combat base in an instant. More soldiers ran over and pointed their guns at Lin Bei and his companion.
Seeing this commotion, Lin Bei whistled. Constantine straightened up, adjusted his collar, and frowned slightly: "Didn't you tell them you were coming at this time? What kind of welcome ceremony is this? You may not be afraid of bullets, but I am."
Lin Bei replied with a smile, "Don't worry, with me here, the bullets won't hit you."
Just as the two were talking, Dr. Serizawa's excited shout came from afar: "Quickly put down your guns, both of you put down your guns! These two are distinguished guests!"
Lin Bei looked up and saw Dr. Serizawa and his superior, whose expression was not good, approaching them.
Dr. Serizawa shouted breathlessly for a while, but when no soldiers paid any attention to him, he felt a little embarrassed and turned to look at his superior officer.
The officer nodded slightly, and the surrounding soldiers all lowered their guns.
Dr. Serizawa immediately led Lin Bei and Constantine to the lounge that had been prepared in advance.
The officer, naturally, wouldn't let them be alone, and quickly followed after them.
After Lin Bei sat down in the lounge, Dr. Serizawa personally poured two glasses of water for Lin Bei and Constantine before sitting down opposite them.
The officer stood to the side, arms crossed, watching them warily.
Dr. Serizawa was a little nervous. He rubbed his hands together and thought for a moment before asking, "Mr. Lin Bei, could you please explain what ability you used to deal with King Ghidorah? You know, that's the 'Zero Monster,' which even Godzilla had some difficulty dealing with."
The officer next to him also wanted to know the answer to this.
He wanted to know where this human got his power to fight monsters all by himself, or whether this human wasn't human at all, but an alien.
The officer narrowed his eyes slightly. If he really was an alien, then they had to capture him at all costs and send him to a research institute, where they might be able to uncover the secret of the source of his power.
Perhaps because his superior's gaze was too intense, Lin Bei glanced at his superior slightly before speaking, and chuckled, "Are you doubting whether I am human or not? Or are you planning to send me to a research institute to dissect me regardless of whether I am human or not?"
Lin Bei shifted his posture, no longer looking at his superior who had exposed his thoughts, but facing Dr. Serizawa directly, and said calmly, "I advise you to abandon your plan to extract secrets from me right now. You don't yet understand how vast the gap is between you and me. And, I am indeed human. If you intend to do anything to harm me, I can tell you right now that before you can even make a move, I will personally raze this entire combat base to the ground within three seconds."
Dr. Serizawa's expression stiffened slightly. He knew that Lin Bei was not someone to be trifled with; otherwise, how could anyone kill Ghidorah so easily, just like him?
Dr. Serizawa coughed lightly and smiled cautiously, "Mr. Lin Bei, you're exaggerating a bit. We would never pose any threat to you. I just want to know if you could leave me a little bit of your DNA as research material. Do you think that's feasible?"
Having dealt with monsters for a long time, Dr. Serizawa naturally had a good grasp of what these people, who were even more powerful than monsters, were thinking.
He really didn't intend to do anything to Lin Bei; he just wanted to compare Lin Bei's DNA with the monster's DNA to see if there were any similarities.
Dr. Serizawa was a scientist; he didn't believe that Lin Bei was possessed by a deity. Rather than believing in such mystical things, he preferred to believe his investigation results.
Lin Bei hadn't expected Dr. Serizawa to say that. He raised an eyebrow slightly, thought for a moment, and then nodded: "I can cooperate with you on that, but there's no such thing as a free lunch. You understand that principle. I need to see your sincerity."
Hearing Lin Bei say this, Dr. Serizawa breathed a sigh of relief. He wasn't afraid of Lin Bei refusing, but he was afraid that Lin Bei didn't have what he wanted.
Since his return, Dr. Serizawa has been discussing with his superiors the matter of providing Lin Bei with compensation, because he killed Ghidorah and saved countless lives.
The officer was somewhat displeased, since Lin Bei hadn't protected his men when he was fighting Radon.
Dr. Serizawa tried to persuade him from both sides, and the superior finally nodded slightly, but with an additional condition.
As soon as Lin Bei finished speaking, Dr. Serizawa looked at his superior, who slowly walked to the table and tapped the surface lightly with his fingers: "I acknowledge your abilities, and we are willing to pay you, but we would like to trouble you with one more thing."
Dr. Serizawa quickly interjected, "I need your help to get all the monsters that haven't returned to their lair back." (End of Chapter)
