Chapter 026: Delivering Heads
获得主角能力的我只想过平凡生活 · 第026章 送人头
Ghidorah was, after all, an alien monster that could command lightning and storms, its gravity rays obliterating everything. Even with Wang Bo's current body, he dared not face a gravity ray head-on. In his view, a mere group of aerial forces was utterly useless against Ghidorah, serving only to cause trouble.
Not to mention that Ghidorah might now be possessed by an Apostle, granting it an AT Field.
Whether bullets or missiles, they couldn't even hit Ghidorah, so these people couldn't even scratch its hide.
Their participation in the battle could only be described as delivering heads from a thousand li away.
Wang Bo was not so cruel as to allow that, so he quickly ordered them to retreat.
But the fighter pilots thought otherwise. Upon arriving at the scene and hearing Wang Bo's command, they did not withdraw; instead, they reported the situation to headquarters.
The general at headquarters, upon hearing the pilot's report, was not too surprised and immediately said, "You are to assist the Superman immediately and kill the monster as quickly as possible."
Ever since Ghidorah appeared and blatantly destroyed several cities, it had drawn the attention of the United Nations.
The governments of various countries were well aware of Ghidorah's movements.
A few hours ago, Ghidorah suddenly stopped moving, remaining in one place, baffling everyone who was closely monitoring it. Everyone wondered why Ghidorah had stopped.
Based on past patterns of Ghidorah's movement, there was no reason for it to stop, yet it had inexplicably halted and fired brilliant gravity rays in the same spot.
Thus, people suspected that Ghidorah had likely encountered a powerful enemy and was engaged in a fierce battle.
This hypothesis gained many supporters.
Everyone speculated about what kind of formidable foe the monster had encountered, but opinions on this matter varied.
There were two main views.
One group believed Ghidorah had encountered another monster; the other group believed it had encountered the Superman.
The same Superman who appeared during the Tokyo Port incident.
He might have seen Ghidorah's actions and intercepted it mid-air.
For a time, countless people rejoiced, believing the Superman could kill Ghidorah.
However, as time passed—one hour, two hours—Ghidorah still hadn't died.
Everyone speculated that Ghidorah's strength was beyond imagination, and the Superman might be locked in a bitter struggle with it. Thus, the aerial forces rushed over to see what was happening.
And the facts proved that the situation on site matched their guesses.
So the general issued the previous order.
"Roger."
The pilots had all heard Wang Bo's words when they arrived, and each was filled with resentment. Sure, you're impressive, Superman, but we're not just here for show.
Thus, upon receiving the order, under the command of their leader, they dispersed and formed a line, aiming at Ghidorah and opening fire.
Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat...
A barrage of bullets and missiles was launched simultaneously, with rumbling explosions erupting, giving birth to flowers of death symbolizing destruction in the air.
After all, missiles were powerful enough; the flames they produced upon explosion were not much different from the flowers of death that devour human lives.
These weapons were originally created for destruction.
But that was only true for humans.
For the monster Ghidorah, missiles were nothing more than pretty fireworks. These missiles didn't even hit Ghidorah, as they were completely blocked by the outer AT Field.
After the smoke from the flames cleared, Ghidorah appeared before everyone completely unharmed.
The pilots were all utterly bewildered.
Roar!!!!
Ghidorah, who had been suppressed by Lady Gremory, had long been filled with pent-up rage. Now, seeing a swarm of annoying ants firing at him, his fury was instantly ignited.
Its three heads roared simultaneously, and three gravitational rays shot into the sky, crisscrossing and sweeping through the void. One fighter jet after another, unable to dodge in time, was blown up on the spot.
Flames bloomed in the void one after another, brilliant and beautiful.
The pilots who had narrowly escaped the gravitational rays finally understood what Wang Bo meant earlier: this was indeed a battlefield where they had no place.
They weren't there to play a supporting role; they were there to retreat.
Helpless, the commander of the air force could only shout, "Retreat, retreat immediately!!"
After that round of bombardment, Ghidorah wasn't even scratched, while they had lost over a dozen fighter jets. If they kept fighting like this, total annihilation was only a matter of time.
So the only thing they could do now was retreat.
Seeing this, Wang Bo couldn't help but sigh. Damn it, a bunch of idiots who wouldn't listen and insisted on delivering their heads from a thousand miles away.
Did they really think modern weapons could do whatever they wanted?
The air force's hasty retreat left the command center in dead silence. No one had expected that the well-equipped air force would be so vulnerable against the monster. What was happening to this world? Were these primitive monsters really so powerful that they could stand up to modern weapons?
No one could answer such doubts.
Everyone had a question in their minds: if one monster was already this formidable, could humans still dominate the planet if there were more such monsters?
And that question, too, no one could answer.
On the other hand, after the troublesome air force retreated, the battle between Ghidorah and Lady Gremory resumed. But as before, Lady Gremory kept releasing magical cannons, changing angles, probing Ghidorah's AT Field from all directions time and again.
Meanwhile, Wang Bo kept watch on the sidelines, preventing Ghidorah from escaping.
In fact, not long after the battle began, Ghidorah realized it couldn't overcome Lady Gremory and had thought about fleeing, but was stopped by her.
It was only after that incident that Wang Bo started keeping watch to prevent Ghidorah from escaping.
Soon, another hour passed.
The battle continued.
Having released too many gravitational rays, Ghidorah was severely low on energy and needed to find a power plant to absorb electricity for replenishment.
So by this point, it grew impatient, roaring repeatedly, and several times hurled its AT Field like a cannonball in an attempt to defeat Lady Gremory.
This move startled Wang Bo; he really hadn't expected that the AT Field could be used this way.
It seemed he indeed didn't understand the AT Field well enough.
As for Lady Gremory, upon seeing the way the AT Field was used, she smiled with great delight.
