The Earth, by the Geneva Lake, at the European Nuclear Research Center.
"The particle collision experint has ended perfectly this ti. Next, we just have to wait for the result analysis."
"God bless, hopefully this ti, we can find traces of extra-dinsional particles... just like when we discovered the God particle back then."
"Otherwise, who knows how long we will have to wait until the next funding for equipnt maintenance cos in. It's getting stingier, let's go, let's go, ti to clock off."
"Wait, there's an ergency contact coming in!"
"Who is it? The Seismic Bureau or the Council?" a scholar who chaired the research asked with a hint of unease.
Even though even the most preliminary data filtering takes several days, and detailed data analysis may take years, scientific research sotis feels like taphysics, sotis relying on intuition.
Of course, this ti, the intuition wasn't so pleasant.
After all, various academic fields have warned them more than once that large particle collision experints inherently carry a certain degree of risk.
For example, creating a micro black hole, which can evaporate quickly in a short ti due to Hawking radiation, but if accidentally causing a vacuum decay, that would be a disaster.
Until the external communication's words put these experinters at ease:
"Musk."
"Who?"
"Elon Musk from SpaceX. He personally sent a video and hopes we can provide a reasonable explanation and solution."
The researchers looked at each other, seemingly not understanding why this guy wasn't busy building his rockets but decided to trouble them.
Soon, as the video captured by Starlink over the Pacific Ocean's Nemo Point played in the conference room, especially when seeing those two 'creatures' battling above the ocean, clear even from a satellite perspective,
the entire nuclear research center fell into dead silence.
For a mont, they even thought Musk clipped a section from "Godzilla" to tease them...
They sincerely hoped he was joking.
"The ti... the ti they appeared coincides with our collision experint ti...."
"Oh God... what exactly have we collided and brought out..."
Just as this group of researchers collectively found their 'Taoist hearts shattered' and their worldviews exploding, the two dragon-like monsters shown in the satellite imagery collided silently over the sea.
It was unclear what unknown force they were influenced by.
"Zi..." The satellite imagery imdiately turned into a garbled ss of white noise points.
At the sa ti, everyone felt a heaviness in their hearts, followed by intense shaking.
"Is it an earthquake?"
Then, after nearly three minutes of suffocating silence, red alerts and inquiries from more than ten international authoritative organizations like the European diterranean Earthquake Center, Pacific Tsunami Warning Center, Emilygan National Earthquake Information Center, UNESCO, Japan teorological Agency, and the International Tsunami Warning System Center rushed in like a storm.
"What's going on?"
The staff mber responsible for sending and receiving ssages already looked dazed:
"The Pacific Plate cracked, triggering an earthquake over magnitude ten."
Then muttered to themselves:
"Hawaii, which is the closest, might be completely subrged within the next 5 hours... Even places like Lima 8000 kiloters away, and further places like San Francisco and Tokyo, could face tsunamis over forty ters high... Am I dreaming..."
"Stop dreaming for now, there's good news, the Ford carrier strike group is in nearby Pacific waters."
"...And the bad news?"
"Under the monstrous tsunami, except for the Ford carrier and a Virginia-class attack nuclear submarine, the carrier strike group was wiped out."
"How is this considered good news?" The researcher of Emilygan origin grabbed their head, feeling they were about to lose it.
"Why not? That Virginia-class attack nuclear submarine carries 78 nuclear warheads."
And thus, the topic suddenly took a derailing turn:
"78? I recall it usually accommodates 80, right?"
"Supposedly, they lost two again, you know, that's not sothing unusual."
"...F***!"
...
On the Pacific Ocean, the four trillion tons of seawater within a hundred-mile radius were lifted straight into the stratosphere by the mighty blow of the two dragon gods, pouring down as torrential rain.
An apocalyptic scene.
Amidst the collision of the two majestic divine bodies, only the Red Dragon Ancestor Christoph, drenched like a wet dog, stood in this torrential downpour, shouting desperately and hopelessly:
"Stop fighting! Please, stop fighting!"
After all, if this battle continues, he had no idea whether the two dragon gods would be alright, but he, Christoph, was definitely dood to ascend prematurely.
Uncertain whether this world had a heaven or a hell.
But the two dragon gods remained indifferent.
Or rather, Bahamut, the North Wind Dragon King, was being oppressed by the enraged Chromatic Dragon Queen so severely:
"Tiamat! Please calm down first."
"You should have realized it too, we seem to have drifted to a new world, a world seemingly only comprised of oceans and devoid of magic power."
"If we continue fighting like this, it's very likely we will get completely trapped here due to magic depletion."
Tiamat naturally noticed this point earlier.
But with her eternal enemy of several generations right in front, the murderer of Vorre right there, how could she calm down, how could she cease her swinging claws!
And just as this destined battle that continued to penetrate through two worlds was about to end in such an almost self-destructive way.
The two parties simultaneously sensed an attack flying towards them at the speed of a shocking dragon.
Facing this potentially threatening, unknown strike.
In an instant, the two Dragon Gods made their own choices instinctively.
"Die!!!" Tiamat launched herself towards her nesis once again like a descending flying dragon, crashing down like a teor.
Platinum Dragon God Bahamut, after a brief silence, suddenly smiled, spread his wings, and also charged towards the oncoming Tiamat.
Thus, shielding himself in front of the opponent.
"Pfft!"
Tiamat could hardly believe her eyes seeing Bahamut being easily pierced through the chest by her tail:
"...Why?"
Coughing up blood like a waterfall, Bahamut responded with a bitter smile:
"I just realized that since we've co to another world, I... seem not to be so hung up on life and death anymore..."
"Thus, everything I owed you... I return to you."
"May you in this new world...
"Have a brand new beginning...
"Bless you...
"My sister, Tiamat..."
After saying these words, the Platinum Dragon God, pierced through the heart by the Colorless Dragon Queen, his magic power all but exhausted, his eyes began to dim.
"....No!!!"
Unable to accept this form of revenge, Tiamat's five heads simultaneously let out roars filled with anger, unwillingness, pain, malice, and sorrow.
Why!
Why can you choose your self-righteous way of paying back without my permission?!
Bahamut!
You are still as arrogant as ever!
"You revive for ! And then, let kill you again!!!"
Hearing these equally arrogant words, Bahamut, who had already reached the end of his life, laughed until his heart shivered and completely stopped beating.
"Roar!!!"
As Tiamat raised her five heads and howled to the sky with unknown emotions.
78 Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missiles carrying nuclear warheads arrived as scheduled at a speed exceeding Mach 26.
The next mont, over the Pacific Ocean, it was as if a constantly expanding fierce sun had risen.
Watching as these two monsters finally perished under the mightiest force of humankind.
Aboard the Ford aircraft carrier, which had endured the terrible tsunami without a single aircraft remaining, cheers erupted.
However, soon, as the flas dispersed, all sounds fell silent.
Those two monsters, origins unknown, still hovered like sky carriers over the still-boiling ocean.
Not only unhard, but they seed to have absorbed the terrifying energy like a certain monster from the movies, becoming even stronger, flowing with peculiar colors of red and white.
Then the white head of the five-headed monster turned around. With a sigh like a harsh winter, the Ford aircraft carrier turned into an iceberg on the sea.
Amid the waves, silently, it cracked open...
Having dealt with these mariti tin-shells that had seemingly dropped mutated mana energy on them recently, Tiamat's ten eyes were intently fixed on her old adversary who instinctively curled up his body:
"See, this new world seems to favor , Tiamat, quite well."
"Preconditions overturned, there seems to still be a way to replenish magic power in this world.
"Our ti is plentiful, wouldn't you say? Bahamut."
As Tiamat spoke, she wagged her tail, continually prodding the heart of the Platinum Dragon God, which shattered repeatedly but healed automatically under the imnse mana energy.
Seeing his sister finally calm down enough to listen, Bahamut could only smile through his pain:
"Yes, it's just, could you please pull it out first... it hurts..."
"You still know pain?! Good to know it hurts! Hahaha!" Tiamat, like an insane person hearing the world's greatest joke, wagged her tail more joyfully.
And just as this dragon sibling duo was engaged in their peculiar performance on the Pacific Ocean.
Unbeknownst whether it was due to the intense nuclear radiation, another massive lizard head quietly surfaced on the ocean.
With a face full of shock and disbelief, it looked at the scene before it, much like an elentary student stumbling into the vast world of the internet for the first ti.
In the only surviving nuclear submarine in the distance, an Emilygan navy observer, having witnessed this third monster, finally broke down.
Leaping and laughing like a monkey in the passageway:
"I just knew...
"I just knew in this world...
"There was a damn Godzilla!!!
"Hahaha!"
PS: The new book will be uploaded on the 28th of this month, although it may take so ti for review.
The the of the new book is a Hamr-style Dragon novel, hope you all like it~
