Chapter 199: The Discovery
On Great Dawn Planet, the Swarm shifted its strategic focus to the oceans. The production of the Odd-Headed Fish scouting units skyrocketed, with Storm Gods tirelessly ferrying their eggs to the seas.
Luo Wen intended to thoroughly survey the planet’s oceans in the years leading up to his primary body’s arrival. The appearance of Godzilla suggested the potential existence of other monsters, like a Skull Island kaiju or King Ghidorah.
But as time passed, it became clear his fears were unfounded. Thanks to the low production cost and compact size of Odd-Headed Fish eggs, their numbers grew to hundreds of thousands.
These marine scouts, working tirelessly, mapped the ocean floor. Whenever they detected anomalous radiation, a fungal carpet seed was sent to “stir up trouble.”
Unfortunately, they found no trace of monsters akin to Ghidorah—or even a second Godzilla.
Meanwhile, the continent where the Swarm’s base was located had been thoroughly explored, along with the other four continents, thanks to large numbers of Scout Bugs ferried over by Storm Gods.
These smaller, cheaper flying scouts worked diligently like their aquatic counterparts. Sadly, the land yielded no significant discoveries either—aside from some large primates that fell woefully short of kaiju status.
With her “toys” annihilated by two nuclear breaths, Sarah could no longer train new units since the production sequences were filled with scout orders. Left with little to do, she turned her focus to monitoring Godzilla, waiting for Luo Wen’s arrival.
Since its rampage years ago, Godzilla had returned to its resting place. It seemed to survive solely on radiation and only killed to vent its frustration.
