Chapter 327 - Changes in the World

The situation in the Behemoth Universe is rather special, and some previous experiences cannot be directly applied, so Ron decided to directly ask the indigenous people of this world.

And Irene is also very sensible. As the head of the Monarch Organization's outpost on Skull Island, Irene knows information that many people don't know.

After getting to know Irene, combined with the intelligence Ron had just obtained during his reconnaissance, Ron quickly improved his understanding of this world.

First of all, this world should have been affected by the fragments of the Black Death Sword two months ago. This direct blow from the timeline seriously affected the original structure of the Behemoth Universe. Just like now, the storm surrounding the entire Skull Island has disappeared. But similarly, the Skull Island outpost has also lost contact with the outside world. And from Ron's investigation, the changes in this world may not be as simple as they seem on the surface.

In particular, the real protagonists of this world, the Titans, have begun to lose control and no longer care about the laws of nature and ecological cycles, and have actively invaded the human world. This was unimaginable before.

Although people in this world are very afraid of giant beasts, in fact, giant beasts rarely attack humans actively. The main reason is that they all need to follow the rules set by the King of Monsters to ensure that the world's ecology can operate in a balanced and stable manner.

The battles between monsters are often fought between giants who are trying to fight for the throne of the king of monsters. In addition to fighting for the throne of the king of monsters, there is also the desire to destroy the balance of nature.

Just like the plot of Godzilla 1, the female and male MUTOs devoured a large number of nuclear bombs in San Francisco and laid eggs, so Godzilla landed and launched a decisive battle with them. The final result was that the whole San Francisco was in ruins. In the plot, the Battle of San Francisco took place in 2014 in the Behemoth Universe, but until 2019 in the Behemoth Universe, in the plot of Godzilla 2: King of the Monsters, San Francisco is still an abandoned scene, with trees all over the roads, and nature covering the city at an alarming speed.

As the King of Monsters, Godzilla's mission, or responsibility, or right as a king is that he does not allow other giant monsters to destroy the land world.

However, not all giant beasts can follow the rules set by Godzilla. Because apart from some of the giant beasts that are content to be peaceful or can communicate like King Kong, there are also some pure destructive monsters.

For example, in Godzilla vs. Kong 2, the giant squid spider Scylla was torn apart by Godzilla at the beginning.

As a destructive Titan, Scylla's foraging method is very rough, and every time it appears, it will cause a lot of irreversible damage to the ecology. For Godzilla, this is undoubtedly a provocation to his authority, and the final result is that they broke out a tragic battle of giant beasts in Italy.

According to this setting, based on what Ron discovered, even if Godzilla learned how to create shadow clones, he would not have enough time to deal with so many Titan out-of-control incidents.

Ron glanced at Irene, who was a little reserved but also curiously looking at him and Blue Star, and said simply:

"It's worse than you think."

"…worse?"

After hearing Ron's words, Irene was stunned for a moment, then asked nervously, "Did something happen outside?"

"Of all the Titans you have recorded on the surface, at least 70% have begun to lose control of their desire to eat."

Hearing this, Irene did not turn around at first, but then, when she remembered the energy source of these giant beasts, Irene's expression changed and her eyes were filled with fear.

These behemoths are huge, and even when they are in low-consumption mode while sleeping, their energy consumption is an astronomical figure. In this case, the behemoths use geocentric radiation as their energy source. When they are in urgent need of energy replenishment, they will instinctively choose a more direct and high-quality energy source - nuclear energy.

Nuclear power plants and nuclear bombs. These are excellent supplements for any Titan beast. When the two MUTOs that caused the Battle of San Francisco were discovered, one had already been born and the other was in egg form. The one that had already been born went to Japan, attacked the nuclear power plant in Cherokee City, and obtained a lot of energy through the nuclear leak of the nuclear power plant. With the energy, the MUTOs began to evolve, and then arrived in Hawaii, paralyzed the warships with EMP shocks, and swallowed the nuclear bombs and nuclear energy on the nuclear submarines. Then, it arrived in San Francisco.

During the process, the male and female MUTOs merged and swallowed a large number of nuclear bombs to lay eggs. Then, the human protagonists sacrificed themselves to dismantle the nuclear bombs and detonated them, destroying all the MUTO eggs. Godzilla tore the two MUTOs apart with his bare hands, and after sleeping for a night, he dived into the deep sea in the early morning of the next day under the watchful eyes of the public and left people's sight.

Although it sounds like a happy ending, the impact it has is far-reaching. Even now, there are still people who worship Godzilla, and there are also many people who are afraid of and hostile to any Titan monster.

In the past, the Monarch Organization set up a large number of outposts for the safety of the world to satisfy the Titans' desire for energy. Just like King Kong, he has been living in the base of the Skull Island Outpost, so that he can continue to grow with sufficient nutrition, and he is too lazy to cause trouble, and he can be his own Skull Island handsome boy in peace and stability.

but now……

From what Ron said, almost all the Titans are out of control?

"Then, then...then they..."

His eyes were filled with fear. Facing Irene's gaze, Ron nodded calmly.

"You know, whether it's a nuclear power plant or a nuclear bomb, they can't escape the Titans' perception."

Monsters look clumsy, but they actually have very strong perception abilities - just like the old saying that sharks can smell blood from a few kilometers away. Titans are also very sensitive to high-density energy such as nuclear energy. Take Godzilla as an example. According to the official novels and setting collections, Godzilla can sense the magnetic field on the surface and even the center of the earth, as well as the life forms in it. This means that no matter where Godzilla is, he can monitor most areas of the world and the changes in magnetic field energy generated in the area through the magnetic field.

In this case, if the behemoths no longer control their desire for nuclear energy...

"What about Godzilla? Didn't Godzilla do anything?!" Irene said in horror, "Godzilla should have stopped them! Sufficient research has shown that as the king of monsters, Godzilla will actively maintain the balance of the world and attack any monsters that try to destroy the surface ecosystem! These monsters suddenly attacked nuclear facilities, so Godzilla didn't react at all?"

"He is the king of monsters. He will never tolerate other monsters challenging his authority!"

The Battle of San Francisco and the King of the Monsters War that broke out in 2019 all proved Godzilla's authority as the King of Monsters. In these wars, the strength that Godzilla showed was also the key reason why many people worship Godzilla.

As it is now, Irene simply cannot imagine how Godzilla could tolerate these behemoths losing control and destroying the ecological balance on the surface.

And Ron's answer was simple.

"The magnetic field changed and Godzilla lost his ability to sense."

Ron said: "When the world was threatened by an unknown threat, the King of Monsters lost his eyes to monitor the world. Even the Titans would instinctively feel fear, right? Since they feel fear, they will naturally increase their strength as much as possible to face any possible crisis. Just like this skeleton lizard."

Pointing to the corpse of the giant skeleton lizard that was disintegrating and disappearing at an alarming speed because of the loss of the Black Death Sword, Ron said calmly: "Even the long-dead giant beasts can be revived. What is happening in this world is normal. How did you say that? It's like this world has become a dark forest, and every giant beast is a hunter with a gun. The worldview of the giant beasts is purer than that of humans. Just like the wild animals on the African savannah, any slight movement is enough to make them alert immediately."

As he said this, Ron also recalled the scenes he saw when he was investigating this world, and then said:
"Godzilla is not unresponsive. He is constantly patrolling his territory. But unfortunately, his authority cannot suppress the fear felt by other monsters. Therefore, the world is out of control now. Every nuclear power plant and nuclear energy facility will face the attack of monsters. Based on this point, your luck is actually pretty good."

Looking at Irene, Ron said with a slightly amused look on his face, "Although the Skull Island Outpost was also attacked, King Kong is an extremely special individual among the Titans and is very human. He is still willing to protect you even in the face of danger. If it were any other Titan, the first thing they would do would be to fight the Skeleton Giant Lizards for the remaining nuclear radiation in the outpost, and they would not even think about helping you."

Hearing this, Irene blinked, giving the impression that she just now realized how lucky she was.

"What should we do now?"

On the side, after resting for a while, Cang Lanxing stood up and came to Ron's side.

Wearing the black dragon armor, Canglanxing gave people a particularly oppressive feeling. Apart from anything else, just standing there, a strong aura came over him. With his arms folded, the black dragon sword was tucked behind him, like a dragon man from a fantasy novel, the eyes on his chest and forehead flashed with strange flames and kept looking around, looking like a living dragon man in armor.

Unlike Irene's surprise and Ron's understanding of this world, when he came to this world, in addition to carrying out the mission, Blue Star also developed a strong interest in the ecology of this world.

But obviously, now is not the time to satisfy his own interests, because Canglanxing can clearly feel that the world is undergoing some changes.

Without Ron's perspective, Blue Star could only collect intelligence bit by bit. But judging from the information obtained so far, the ecosystem of this world is undoubtedly rotten to the core.

"Should we wait here or go somewhere else?" asked Canglanxing.

"What do you think?" Ron did not directly answer Cang Lanxing's question, but looked at Cang Lanxing and said:
"This is your mission, so I will respect your choice. Likewise, you don't have to worry too much, just follow your ideas. Based on your current problem-solving methods, the tasks assigned to you by the system will be specialized accordingly, so that you can easily choose the mission world that best suits your style. As for me? I will provide you with all the necessary support that is not practical help, such as intelligence and the like."

Hearing this, Cang Lanxing nodded thoughtfully, and then said: "The state of the monsters here is a little wrong. According to what you just said, the magnetic field of this world has been seriously affected. Even the King of Monsters cannot be sure what is happening around him. So, I want to know where the King of Monsters is. In addition, if possible, can you bring this big guy with you?"

Looking at King Kong beside him, Cang Lanxing said, "King Kong doesn't seem as simple as he looks... I think if he is the only giant beast that can communicate, then he may be able to provide some necessary help in the next plan."

After a pause, Canglanxing added in a muffled voice, "Providing assistance that cannot be accomplished as a human being is like an ecosystem, coexisting with humans."

As he spoke, Canglanxing pointed to the camp of the indigenous people not far away. Although they were far away, Ron could clearly see the murals left by the indigenous people of Skull Island. Those were the murals that had appeared in King Kong: Skull Island. The general meaning was that the indigenous people of Skull Island survived on the dangerous Skull Island because of the protection of King Kong, and regarded King Kong as the god of the tribe.

There is nothing wrong with this.

Although King Kong, Godzilla, and other monsters were born in the form of movies long before the Legendary Monster Universe appeared. However, the monsters in the Legendary series are completely different from those in other movies. One point is that the giant monsters in the Legendary series are not just simple creatures, because they are endowed with strong "divinity" in most cases. For example, Scylla, who was torn apart by Godzilla, corresponds to the female sea monster in Greek mythology. She is the daughter of the sea god Phorcus. She became a monster because of the jealousy and frame-up by the witch. Similarly, most Titans also have special and powerful abilities.

And these abilities are an indispensable part of the world cycle for this world.
