When Fangzheng followed James to the base in Hong Kong, the entire base was already on standby. Although they were mentally prepared, when the people in the base saw the huge dragon that blotted out the sky, they could not help but tremble.
Fangzheng did not deliberately retract his [Dragon's Might], nor did he choose to turn into a human. As a human himself, he was well aware of human psychology and thoughts. Indeed, if he could turn into a human, he might be able to develop a sense of intimacy with the humans in this world. It was just like how many people would tremble in fear when they saw a dragon, but if the dragon turned into a cute loli, they would only shout "cute". Even if they were the same thing internally, there would be differences because of the difference in appearance.
Because of this, Fangzheng would not choose to turn back into a human to communicate with them, because that would only increase the sense of intimacy the humans in this world had with him, and thus create a sense of equality. They would subconsciously think that "since I can turn into a human, it means that I can understand each other", and on this basis, they would do something insatiable. They might even deceive himself or turn a deaf ear to his words …. Well, as a human, Fangzheng naturally understood the bad habits of humans the best.
On the contrary, if he kept his dragon form, even if these people were unwilling, they had to recognize that what appeared in front of them was a powerful, noble, and ancient dragon. They had to treat this dragon with courtesy, and not offend its dignity and glory without authorization.
"Dear Guardian of the Earth, welcome here."
Seeing the dragon lying on the tarmac in front of him, the commander of the base, Pandakos, walked over. He originally wanted to raise his head and show the pride of humans. But when he approached Fangzheng, just the [Dragon's Might] alone was enough to make Pandakos tremble. If he had not bitten his lip and forced himself to cheer up, he would have been paralyzed on the ground, shivering.
"I'm Pandakos, the commander here …."
"I'm not interested in your name, mortals."
But before Pandakos could finish, he was interrupted coldly by Fangzheng.
"No matter what your name is, whether you are a king or a lord, it doesn't matter to me. In the end, all of you will die and become nourishment for this land. And I came here just to pass the time. Since you're so arrogant as to think that you can save everything, I don't mind wasting a little time to witness your humble resistance. It probably won't be long before I witness your destruction …. I think it will be a pleasant memory worth recalling. "
"…"
Hearing the dragon's words, everyone was speechless. You're killing the conversation. What else can we say next?
At this moment, Pandakoth's face was ashen. Clearly, he had never experienced such a feeling before. For a time, the scene seemed slightly awkward. However, Fangzheng did not care about such a small matter. He narrowed his eyes and pretended to doze off, as if he did not intend to pay attention to the human in front of him.
Of course, Fangzheng understands why the atmosphere has become like this. This is no longer hundreds of years ago. If he appeared in front of humans hundreds or thousands of years ago, they would have bowed their heads respectfully. Even kings and popes with supreme power would have humbly asked for his protection. Because at that time, humans were fragile, ignorant, and powerless. They couldn't fight against natural disasters, plague, and barbarian armies from the outside world.
But now it's different. They have great power. They think that they can change the world. They also think that they are the kings of the earth. Therefore, when humans faced a creature that was obviously more advanced than them, and from the lines, it was obvious that they were not worth mentioning, they would not kneel down and beg for its protection and help like their ancestors did.
They won't offer beautiful girls as gifts to him.
Facts have proven that Fangzheng's guess is correct.
"That damned reptile!"
Walking into the base, Pandakoth's face was as black as a pot lid.
"Who does it think it is? We are the masters of this world! We have defeated so many kaiju! Where was it at that time? And now, it dares to talk to us like that?! "
"Commander, I advise you to be careful what you say!"
Hearing Pandakoth's complaints, James' face turned pale. On his way back, he received news that the other Muto that was wreaking havoc in the United States had been completely roasted into charcoal by a group of fire dragons. Then, he was sprinkled with cumin and chili powder before being eaten raw in front of the entire United States.
"That's a dragon, it's likely to have lived for thousands of years. Maybe we can get some history or even knowledge from it that we don't know …"
"What do you want me to do?"
Hearing James' words, Pandakoth became even angrier.
"Do you want me to offer a girl as a tribute to the dragon like in those fantasy stories?"
"Of course, that's not what I mean."
James waved his hand. He also knew that this was impossible. Fortunately, the dragon didn't ask them for a tribute … Otherwise, James really wouldn't know what to do.
"I just hope that you won't show any hostility to it. It's a dragon, not a human. Maybe it'll slap you into meat sauce if it's unhappy … Also, we have already contacted the leaders of various countries. It won't be long before they send people here. At the very least, we need to know what's going on! I think that since this dragon is willing to follow us here, it should be willing to provide us with some information. "
That's right, this is James' main purpose. He doesn't immediately expect this dragon to become their ally, but in James' opinion, maybe they can get some information from this dragon! After all, this dragon must be very old, and the things it has experienced are definitely more reliable than what historians can guess from the ruins!
If they can get some secret information about this world, that's enough!
It had to be admitted that although Pandakos thought nothing of the dragon, the various countries still placed great importance on Fangzheng. In just an hour, the upper echelons of the various countries had sent representatives to the Hong Kong base. Apart from the high-ranking officials, there were also some experts and scholars. There were archaeologists, historians, and even experts in occultism ….
When everyone arrived, they came to the tarmac in front of the base under James' lead. After seeing the dragon with their own eyes, everyone was shocked. Although they had already seen information about this dragon from various images, when they saw it with their own eyes and felt the terrifying dragon aura, they couldn't help but tremble.
"Huh ….?"
At this moment, Fangzheng, of course, also felt the arrival of those people. He opened his eyes and looked up at the delegation in front of him. When they felt Fangzheng's gaze, many people's legs went soft. An old scholar, perhaps because he was too excited, or perhaps because he couldn't bear the pressure of the dragon aura, fainted with a muffled groan!
"Crash!"
Seeing the old man faint, the nervous soldiers around him raised their guns and aimed at Fangzheng. Seeing this scene, Fangzheng suddenly snorted coldly.
"Hmph —!!"
Everyone felt as if a thunderclap had exploded in their heads. For a moment, everyone felt dizzy, and the soldiers fell to the ground, rolling their eyes like idiots. They didn't react.
"Remember who you are, lowly mortals! Who gave you the courage to raise your weapons against me? If you don't know how to treat a dragon, then I don't mind teaching you with fire and destruction! "
"I-I'm sorry, great dragon!"
James finally came back to his senses. He almost rolled and crawled in front of Fangzheng. His face was pale.
"We didn't mean it, please forgive them! … … Quick, get all the soldiers to evacuate! Hurry!! "
Under James' almost crazy roar, the soldiers who were originally on guard around him quickly evacuated. Only then did Fangzheng withdraw his gaze.
"Alright, you've disturbed my rest. What's the matter? If it's for some boring reason, then I don't mind enjoying you as a bedtime snack. "
"Yes, it's like this …"
Hearing Fangzheng's words, James was sweating profusely. He subconsciously took a few steps back, then braced himself and looked up at Fangzheng.
"We, we hope to get some information from you. After all, we don't know much about these monsters. If we can understand why they would appear here and why they would attack us humans, maybe … we can find a way to deal with them …."
Good timing.
Hearing James's question, Fangzheng snickered in his heart. He had wanted to put on a show, but this guy in front of him was too smart!
While silently giving him a thumbs up in his heart, Fangzheng once again lay down lazily on the ground.
"It's meaningless to act smart, mortals … You're heading towards destruction, but you know nothing about it. Ignorant and arrogant, that's what humans are like. I have no sympathy for you, and I don't care what you think … "
"What, what did you say?"
Hearing this, everyone was shocked.
"We're … heading towards destruction? Lord Earth Guardian, what's going on? "
Hearing James's anxious question again, Fangzheng smiled.
