44: Chapter 43 The Abyss Beast That Was Unexpectedly Resurrected and Instantly Killed

Container No. 3 was located in the central area of the base, housing a Third-Tier Abyss Behemoth approximately sixty meters in size.

According to records, this giant beast was killed three months ago at the East Sea Defense Line. Its codename was "Split-Tooth Beast," characterized by a mouth full of sharp teeth and powerful bite force.

When Luo Yu and General Zhan Kuang arrived, a dozen researchers were already gathered in front of the container, all with expressions of shock and disbelief.

"What's the situation?" General Zhan Kuang asked urgently.

"The heart rate is gradually increasing." An older researcher pointed at the monitoring screen and said incredulously, "It has risen from five beats per minute to twenty beats per minute."

"The body temperature is also rising; it's twelve degrees now, three degrees higher than before."

"Weak activity has been detected in the brainwaves; although very faint, it definitely exists."

After listening, General Zhan Kuang's expression immediately became grave. He asked, "How can a giant beast that has been dead for three months be resurrected? Could there be a mistake?"

"We don't know either." The researcher wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with uncertainty, "According to common sense, after an Abyssal Giant Beast dies, the energy within its body dissipates completely within twenty-four hours. It's impossible for it to have signs of life again."

"But now..."

Before he could finish his sentence, the Split-Tooth Beast in the container suddenly opened its eyes.

Those scarlet vertical pupils stared fixedly at the people outside through the glass.

"Damn it!" General Zhan Kuang instinctively took a step back.

The researchers were even more terrified, their faces turning pale, and several of them collapsed to the ground.

"Quick! Activate the emergency protocol!" The next second, General Zhan Kuang roared, "Increase the concentration of the tranquilizer in the container to the maximum!"

"Yes!" Several researchers scrambled to operate the console.

The nozzle at the top of the container began to spray a large amount of deep red liquid; it was a super-strong tranquilizer specifically developed for Abyssal Giant Beasts.

However... the Split-Tooth Beast just shook its head, and those scarlet vertical pupils became even clearer.

"It's useless!" The researcher screamed in terror, "The tranquilizer doesn't seem to work on it."

"How is that possible?" General Zhan Kuang couldn't believe it and shouted, "This is a dosage capable of taking down a Fourth-Tier Giant Beasts."

Boom! At this moment, the Split-Tooth Beast suddenly slammed into the glass container, and the powerful force caused the entire base to shake.

"Damn it!!" General Zhan Kuang took a deep breath and asked urgently, "How long can the container's structural integrity hold?"

"According to design standards, it can withstand the full-force impact of a Third-Tier Giant Beasts..." The researcher swallowed nervously and said, "But... that calculation was based on the giant beast being in a dead state. Now, it is clearly abnormal; it has eerily come back to life."

Boom! Boom! Boom! Sure enough, with the continuous impacts from the Split-Tooth Beast, fine cracks resembling spiderwebs appeared on the glass container.

"Evacuate... everyone evacuate!" Seeing the cracks appear, General Zhan Kuang made a decisive decision and shouted, "The Third-Tier Giant Beasts is out of control. Activate the self-destruct sequence and blow up this area!"

"But General, there are other precious samples here..."

"I can't worry about that anymore!" General Zhan Kuang roared, "If this giant beast gets out, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

However, at this moment, Luo Yu, who had been silent, spoke up, "General, wait a moment."

"Luo Yu, now is not the time for hesitation. We need to minimize losses."

"General," Luo Yu said in a calm tone, "What I mean is, you don't need to be so anxious. Let Godzilla try."

"..." General Zhan Kuang was stunned for a moment and looked at the Little Lizard on Luo Yu's shoulder.

Godzilla was staring at the Split-Tooth Beast, its vertical pupils flashing with excitement.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes. Godzilla said that it can't eat dead ones, but it can eat live ones." Luo Yu added, "Since this giant beast has been resurrected, it's the perfect opportunity for Godzilla to eat it."

"Hoo!!" General Zhan Kuang took a deep breath and said, "Alright, I'll give you three minutes. If you can't handle it, I will activate the self-destruct sequence."

"That's enough."

Luo Yu walked to the container, and Godzilla jumped off his shoulder, landing on the ground.

"Godzilla, it's time to eat."

Hiss— The Little Lizard let out an excited cry, and its body began to expand.

Thirty centimeters... one meter... five meters... ten meters... In just a few seconds, Godzilla turned into a twenty-meter-tall giant beast.

"Wait!" Luo Yu suddenly remembered something and said helplessly, "The space here is too small. If Godzilla gets any bigger, it will collapse the base."

"Right!" General Zhan Kuang also reacted, "Quickly tell it to shrink back."

However, just as Luo Yu was about to speak, Godzilla, being very intelligent, did not continue to grow larger. Instead, it maintained its twenty-meter form, raised its claw, and slammed it hard against the glass container.

Crack! The container, already covered in cracks, shattered instantly.

A large amount of formalin solution gushed out, and the body of the Split-Tooth Beast tumbled out with it.

"Roar! Roar!" The Split-Tooth Beast let out a deafening roar, opened its mouth full of sharp teeth, and bit crazily toward Godzilla. It wanted to kill the guy in front of it and then completely destroy this place.

However, facing the Split-Tooth Beast's attack, Godzilla did not dodge; instead, it proactively charged forward.

Just as the Split-Tooth Beast's jaws were about to bite Godzilla's neck, Godzilla showed a very human-like expression of disdain and, using a deceptive tactic, opened its mouth.

Blue light gathered deep in its throat.

The next second—Boom! The Atomic Breath at full power erupted at point-blank range.

The blue beam of light pierced directly through the Split-Tooth Beast's head, instantly vaporizing its brain.

The entire process took less than a second. The Split-Tooth Beast didn't even have time to react, not even having time to let out a scream, before it completely lost all signs of life.

Boom!! The huge body collapsed to the ground, shaking the entire base once again.

"This..." Although they knew that Godzilla had killed a Third-Tier Abyss Behemoth in five seconds at the East Sea Defense Line, those researchers who had evacuated far away were still stunned after witnessing it with their own eyes.

Isn't this a bit too exaggerated? The Third-Tier Giant Beasts that was so fierce and menacing just moments ago was instantly killed in such a crushing manner?

Godzilla ignored everyone's shock. It walked straight to the corpse of the Split-Tooth Beast, opened its mouth, and began to devour the remaining abyss energy inside its body.

Green light surged out from the Split-Tooth Beast's corpse and was sucked into Godzilla's mouth.

【Ding! Godzilla is absorbing the core energy of a Third-Tier Abyss Behemoth!】

【evolution progress + 4.1%】

【Current evolution progress: 87.5%】

Luo Yu looked at the system prompt and frowned slightly.

Only a 4.1% increase? It's half less than when it killed the Tidal Fang before.

"It seems that because it's a newly resurrected giant beast, the energy in its body hasn't fully recovered," Luo Yu muttered to himself.

After all, it had been dead for three months. It was already absurd enough that it could be resurrected; how could one expect it to be at full capacity?

A few minutes later, Godzilla finished absorbing the energy, let out a satisfied burp, and then shrank back into a thirty-centimeter Little Lizard, crawling back onto Luo Yu's shoulder.
