Ch. 196 The Dignity of the King of Monsters
🕑 Added 2023-12-08 16:01:00 +0000 UTCAlthough Russell had never experienced the sensation of having his tongue pricked with a heated needle, just by observing Godzilla's tightly shut mouth and the painful expression on his face, he could imagine how uncomfortable it must be.
It was probably more painful than accidentally stubbing your toe on a table!
Russell compared it seriously.
After Godzilla closed his mouth, Russell stopped using his heat vision and refrained from further tormenting Godzilla.
Logically, Godzilla, who could absorb nuclear radiation, should not fear high temperatures. After all, he was a Titan capable of withstanding nuclear bomb explosions.
However, it was clear that Russell's heat vision beams were fundamentally different from a nuclear bomb explosion.
While a nuclear bomb explosion was indeed terrifying and generated temperatures of tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of degrees for an extremely brief moment, this astonishing heat only lasted for a fraction of a millisecond.
Apart from the momentary, extreme heat generated during the explosion, the temperature from a nuclear bomb rapidly decreased to around several thousand degrees.
For humans, temperatures in the thousands of degrees were still deadly.
But for Godzilla, temperatures in the thousands of degrees were akin to taking a warm bath.
Although Russell had not tested the exact temperature of his heat vision beams and didn't know their upper limit, it was safe to assume they weren't low.
If he remembered correctly, Superman Clark's heat vision could be flexibly adjusted. When used at full power, it could burn through planets, while at lower levels, it could melt steel.
If needed, it could even be used for delicate surgeries, demonstrating unparalleled precision.
While Russell wasn't Superman Clark, he believed he could achieve similar feats. Even if he couldn't do it now, he would certainly be able to in the future.
All he needed was a bit more exposure to the sun.
After Russell ceased his heat vision attacks, Grendel finally had the opportunity to heal Godzilla's injuries and calm him down as he was on the brink of going berserk.
Although Grendel now had control over Godzilla's body, if Godzilla was extremely uncooperative, it could still affect his control to some extent. He didn't want to engage in a "domestic dispute" with Godzilla right now.
With Grendel's assistance, Godzilla's injuries were soon healed.
Although his injuries were healed, Grendel didn't dare to manipulate Godzilla to attack Russell without careful consideration. He may not have understood what Russell had gone through, but one thing was certain: Russell was a formidable opponent at the moment.
Grendel began to strategize.
He became cautious.
While Grendel was thinking strategically, Russell acted impulsively.
The appearance of the Divine Power evolution reward had granted him unprecedented power.
He now felt that he could even defeat Diana.
He believed his current condition was extraordinary.
In simpler terms, the skies had cleared, the rain had stopped, and he felt like he could take on the world!
While Grendel contemplated his tactics, Russell wasted no time and teleported in front of Godzilla, grabbing hold of one of Godzilla's claws, which was many times larger than himself.
From the outside, it seemed that Russell was overestimating himself.
However, both Grendel and Godzilla quickly realized that size and strength were not always directly proportional.
Russell grabbed one of Godzilla's claws with precision and, without holding back, exerted all of his current strength.
His waist, shoulders, and arms all surged with power.
Russell, gripping one of Godzilla's claws, initiated a shoulder throw!
At first, Grendel and Godzilla didn't take Russell's actions too seriously. Although Russell had already displayed his strength by punching Godzilla's tail earlier, knocking Godzilla's tail aside was quite different from throwing him over his shoulder.
However, they soon realized their ignorance.
When they heard Russell's furious roar, Godzilla's massive body gradually left the ground, his thick and sturdy legs rising higher and higher.
No way!
Both Grendel and Godzilla had the same shocked thought.
Stop it!
Halt!
As Godzilla's feet continued to leave the ground, he started to panic.
While he had experienced being rammed to the ground by the female MUTO, she was still a Titan, after all. If he were thrown to the ground by a human using a shoulder throw, he would find it difficult to lift his head high in front of other Titans in the future.
As the future King of Monsters, Godzilla absolutely could not allow such a situation to occur.
Although Godzilla couldn't control his own body at the moment, Grendel quickly picked up on his thoughts.
Grendel began to resist Russell's control on Godzilla!
At the same time, thick black tendrils emerged from Godzilla's back, quickly converging into wings.
In the blink of an eye, these black tendrils transformed into wings.
As soon as the giant wings formed, Grendel attempted to flap them and break free from Russell's grasp.
But unfortunately, it was too late for all of this.
Russell had already made up his mind.
With a resounding crash!
Amid Grendel and Godzilla's cries, Russell completed the shoulder throw, slamming Godzilla heavily onto the island.
Godzilla's back hit the earth with tremendous force, causing the relatively small uninhabited island to experience terrifying tremors, similar to a magnitude twelve earthquake.
A massive impact crater appeared beneath Godzilla.
Despite his enormous size and imposing presence, Godzilla now lay pitifully in the impact crater.
It was over!
The dignity of the King of Monsters was gone!
While Russell's shoulder throw didn't cause significant physical damage to Godzilla, it was incredibly humiliating!
At least from Godzilla's perspective, it was.
A mighty Titan and the future King of Monsters had been thrown to the ground by a human using a shoulder throw.
Although Grendel and Russell had previously performed a similar act on Oahu Island, it was merely acting.
"Don't just lie there, get up!"
"And you, Grendel, come out, don't hide within Godzilla!"
In the past, if he had managed to throw Godzilla, who weighed over 90,000 tons, using a shoulder throw, Russell might have felt excited. But now, he considered it perfectly normal.
Russell no longer saw himself as an ordinary superpowered individual.
He now considered himself a part of Superman
Even though he wasn't as famous as the likes of Prime Superman, Golden Superman, or any other renowned Superman, being like this wasn't too shabby either.
A superpowered individual was still a superpowered individual, and it was an entirely different concept from being a Superman.
