Book 2: Chapter 12: Godzilla, Reawakened.
Your Excellency, the Speaker and the live broadcast speech is ready.
Hmm.
Just as in the conversation 20 days ago, Ludwig tidied his clothes. He proceeded to the studio to deliver his speech as planned.
The past month has been far from pleasant.
Godzilla, who had destroyed the Far East, King Ghidorah awakening on Venus, and extraterrestrials arriving from other star systems.
Everything had gone from bad to worse, and today, at this very moment, he had to deliver this dire news to everyone.
Step by step, Ludwig made his way to the studio where he sat in the center. Drone cameras surrounded him, and the staff were adjusting the necessary parameters and channels for the global broadcast.
As Ludwig sat in the center, he began to think about things he had never considered before during this brief moment of respite.
Things like the mysterious star the aliens had mentioned, and the phenomenon of monsters.
In the past twenty days, Ludwig and the other lawmakers had been focused on discussing Godzilla, King Ghidorah, the Wings of King Ghidorah, the intentions of the Bilusaludo alien race, and whether to engage in negotiations all pressing matters at hand.
This was understandable; after all, when immediate issues were unresolved, people tended not to think about the future. Living in the present, isnt that the way?
So, things like the mysterious star and the monster phenomenon were not openly discussed. However, Ludwig had heard people talking about these things in private.
Although it was only casual post-dinner chatter, some of the conclusions intrigued him.
For instance, the idea that the mysterious star was an active white dwarf, and the bizarre Fermi Paradox solution.
He was genuinely interested, but unfortunately, he didnt have the time to delve into them in more detail.
He could only ponder them in the brief moments of respite.
Your Excellency, were about to start.
Oh, very well.
Maybe he didnt even have time for brief moments of respite.
The global broadcast began.
Citizens of the World United Government, I apologize for suddenly occupying your broadcast time.
The usual opening and an apology, because this was an urgent broadcast that occupied all broadcast channels simultaneously.
So, Ludwig had to apologize to the entire world first.
As per the routine.
Here, I must announce unfortunate news.
Next was the standard procedure.
At 23:17 London time yesterday, we observed an anomaly on the surface of Venus at our Permanent Space Station on Venus.
Subsequently, while the Venus Space Station was hesitating whether to investigate, they noticed an unidentified object approaching the Venus Space Station in low Venus orbit.
And after capturing the following footage, the Venus Space Station lost contact.
As Ludwig spoke, a video clip played.
It was a first-person perspective from the Venus Space Station.
In the footage, one could clearly see a massive figure approaching in the distant orbit of the planet. It was accompanied by numerous golden dots of light.
As the figure drew closer, the space stations cameras captured a clearer image of it.
People could also see what it was.
It was a colossal creature, measuring kilometers in size. It was flying in Venus orbit, grotesquely advancing towards the Venus Space Station.
The gold dots around it were other life forms similar to it, and they were approaching the space station.
Next, the space stations screen went black, and the video clip came to an abrupt end.
This is the last footage captured by the Venus Space Station before losing contact.
After a night of observations by the European Space Agency, we regret to announce that the Venus Space Station has been destroyed. On Venus, unidentified monsters similar to Godzilla have appeared.
They are the first extraterrestrial life forms we have discovered, and they share similarities with Godzilla.
The space agency has also discovered that some of these individuals are heading towards Earth. Fortunately, the largest individual did not leave Venus.
We have named the largest monster Ghidorah. The smaller ones, which are on their way to Earth, have been named Ghidorahs Wings.
Ludwig expressed regret over the destruction of the Venus Space Station during the live broadcast and shared size charts for Ghidorah and Ghidorahs Wings as predicted by scientists.
Finally, he concluded, These are a new type of enemy, and they will arrive in our world in the near future.
For our future, for the future of this world, we will prevail.
The broadcast ended.
Ludwig left the studio and headed to the meeting room under the protection of his bodyguards, preparing for another round of discussions.
Most of what he had just said was false. The Venus Space Station was not destroyed yesterday but had been destroyed 20 days ago. It was not Ghidorah that destroyed it, only one of Ghidorahs Wings.
And they were not unidentified monsters; their origins were known. The video was fabricated, the records were forgedall in the name of peace.
Its truly outrageous.
The revelation of Ghidorahs existence brought about a new wave of chaos worldwide.
Online, people discussed the information released by the Space Agency about the Ghidorahs Wings heading for Earth.
This uproar even overshadowed Godzillas presence, as Ghidorahs Wings were undeniably extraterrestrial life.
Simultaneously, apocalyptic theories began to gain popularity on the internet. In the wake of the existence of monsters on other planets and the impending arrival of extraterrestrial creatures, people who were already frightened by Godzilla began to experience a crisis of confidence.
Many did not believe that humanity could defeat Godzilla and Ghidorahs Wings, and apocalyptic theories were rampant. It wasnt until both official and grassroots efforts were made to educate the public, instilling confidence in modern weaponry.
While other weapons might not be effective, we still had nuclear bombs.
The World United Government had anticipated the spread of apocalyptic theories and was prepared beforehand. They began by emphasizing that even though Godzilla was only driven away by 21 nuclear bombs, it showed that humans could confront such threats effectively.
They argued that while Ghidorahs Wings might be as powerful as Godzilla, the satellite orbit was now filled with nearly a hundred thousand nuclear warheads, making the outlook for dealing with Ghidorahs Wings much less pessimistic.
Furthermore, Ghidorahs Wings might not necessarily harbor the same level of hostility towards humans as Godzilla did. It was emphasized that it was Ghidorah, not Ghidorahs Wings, who destroyed the space station (at least according to the public narrative).
Additionally, in the official education materials, the World United Government subtly hinted at some additional information.
They often mentioned in their educational materials phrases like What would the technological and cultural aspects of an extraterrestrial civilization be like if it existed?
Additionally, in surveys about how humanity should deal with Godzilla and Ghidorahs Wings, there were options concerning how to approach potential extraterrestrial life and coexistence with them.
Furthermore, government officials, in various news programs, shifted from their previous seriousness to adopt an extremely optimistic attitude towards Godzilla and Ghidorahs Wings.
This created a sense in the world that perhaps when Ghidorah was discovered on Venus, they found something else as well. Perhaps, something like extraterrestrial civilizations?
The official response didnt provide a clear explanation, leaving people to speculate on their own.
As human society entered unprecedented turmoil, beneath the depths of the Pacific Ocean, a pair of eyes reopened.
Godzilla, reawakened.
