This old man embodied the great formalism to its fullest extent at this moment.
Rivers still has considerable value to them, and they certainly won't hand him over if they can avoid it.
“A country needs strict laws to function properly.” Xia Shu smiled when she heard this.
He understands the principle that nothing can be accomplished without rules.
Old Deng on the other side is very good at feigning compliance.
Old Dennis enjoys talking to intelligent people.
Because only intelligent people can understand the consequences of playing a royal flush.
"Thank you for your understanding..." General McCarthy was about to reply casually.
Natsuki spoke again halfway through her sentence.
“These are all trivial matters, and I won’t interfere with your procedures. However, when I need to use that guy, I will attack you all at once.”
"Don't worry, I won't hurt innocent people."
"However, I cannot guarantee anything else."
The moment those words were spoken, the atmosphere in the hall instantly became tense.
General McCarthy's fake smile instantly turned cold.
The saying "Without rules, there can be no order" is true. However, before the advent of law, the rules were called the law of the jungle.
Chapter 298 I Wasn't the Lucky One
The hall, illuminated by the monitoring equipment, became quieter. The technicians, who had been busy with their work, held their breath, not daring to turn around, and listened intently to the conversation between the two sides.
They desperately hoped that no conflict would break out between the two sides; if a fierce conflict were to occur here, they would be the ones to suffer.
They didn't think they could survive in the sea.
"Is that a threat to us?" General McCarthy's expression was noticeably less relaxed than before, but he had to maintain his stance.
He was also testing the alien's personality; the alien's principle of not easily harming ordinary people gave him some room to maneuver.
Should good people be held at gunpoint?
Ordinary people might disagree on this issue, but for those in this position, good people are meant to be held at gunpoint.
Kindness is hardly a bargaining chip in the exchange of interests.
"What do you think?" Xia Shu's attitude remained unchanged.
This old man holds a high position in human society and wields power that ordinary people cannot imagine, but what does that have to do with him? He judges people only by their hearts. After all, no matter how great your power is, it is only the power within a civilization.
Natsuki held the initiative throughout the conversation.
"I don't think there's any need for us to have a conflict."
"You've solved the problems caused by the Titans for us, and we'll find a way to meet all your demands. I think we can achieve a win-win situation," General McCarthy said, his intention to win over Xia Shu very clear.
Looking at the stubborn old man, Natsuki felt a long-lost feeling.
His words were full of twists and turns, all of them probing and pulling.
Now he says he'll meet all my demands, completely forgetting his earlier promise to follow procedures, without batting an eye.
"You've never figured out one thing from the beginning."
“I came here with no intention of negotiating with you, so why should I want a win-win situation with you?” Xia Shu said.
He gestured for General McCarthy to look behind him.
The sound in the monitoring room was several decibels quieter than before. The technicians all looked at the huge observation window at the back of the hall with horror, lost in thought and silent.
Standing next to Natsuki, Serizawa Ichiro's eyes flickered.
General McCarthy was puzzled. What did this mean?
He turned around slowly, his eyes widening with disbelief.
Behind him, behind a huge observation window, a terrifying behemoth lurked in the dim seawater, its shimmering dorsal fins becoming the light source for the area, and its fierce eyes staring at him through the observation window.
That was a Titan, a Titan named Godzilla.
If the other side so desired, a wave of its hand could send everyone at the outpost to their deaths at sea. At that moment, the technicians sent by the military and the general truly experienced the oppressive feeling of being called Titan.
It remained silently in the sea, casting its shadow over the underwater outpost.
"What the......"
"Everyone, prepare your weapons immediately!" General McCarthy quickly came to his senses, realizing that Godzilla was definitely up to no good, and hurriedly gave the order to all the technicians.
This Monarchy outpost, number 54, was equipped with a magnesium-firing cannon specifically designed to counter Godzilla.
In addition, just in case, they also carried miniature oxygen destroyers.
They conducted experiments in Tokyo Bay, and this weapon is absolutely effective against Godzilla.
"Hiss—!!" Godzilla's dorsal fins were fully lit up, and an atomic breath shot out, causing the seawater in this area to shake violently, and Outpost 54 was also shaken.
A burst of atomic breath pierced through the seawater and shot straight into the sky, tearing through the dark clouds. This sudden attack gave them no time to react.
If this attack had targeted Outpost 54, no human could have survived.
"Don't worry, it'll be over soon. I'll come find you in a bit." Natsuki stood in the hall, motionless through the huge observation window, and said to Godzilla.
Godzilla originally came to find Natsuki, wanting to ask what had happened to her during this time, as a guardian of nature it felt it necessary to know about the relevant events.
But Natsuki kept talking to McCarthy, leaving him hanging.
This annoyed it, so it went straight to the outpost and fired an atomic breath as a warning.
Upon hearing what Natsuki said, Godzilla glanced at everyone in the hall, then slowly turned around and swam deeper into the sea.
"Sir...Godzilla has left." The military technician, finally snapping out of his daze after seeing Godzilla depart, said to General McCarthy.
General McCarthy did not reply.
In just a few seconds, this aging body experienced a rollercoaster-like sensation, with its heart pounding wildly in its chest.
All of this happened too suddenly.
He looked at Xia Shu silently, but this time he didn't say anything.
The appearance of Godzilla, and the words spoken by this man, both confirm one fact.
They are not qualified to sit at the negotiating table, and it is impossible for them to use this man on the principle of not harming ordinary people.
This guy may possess wisdom and principles, but... he's more terrifying than a Titan.
"You saw it too, that guy was getting impatient waiting for me."
"I'm not going to say anything more to you, after all, you're not worthy to listen."
"Return the Imperial Organization to Serizawa, and you know what to do next." After saying this, Natsuki nodded to Serizawa Ichiro and turned to leave.
This huge creature underwater is really getting impatient; we need to go over and appease it a bit. It must be related to King Kong's matter.
“Aliens… are indeed different from what we imagined.” General McCarthy watched Xia Shu’s departing figure, his gaze deep.
To be honest, they really didn't dare to turn against the other party.
The battle between the alien giants and King Ghidorah, in which the sea was split open, was captured by satellites from various countries. They were all well aware of what would happen if that giant halo fell into a human city.
Earlier, a terrifying beam of light pierced through the Earth's core to the surface, creating a new tunnel to the Earth's core. All of this was done by that giant.
If he really angered the other party, he had no doubt that the other party could erase all traces of human civilization within three minutes.
“You are a lucky man, Mr. Serizawa,” General McCarthy said in a deep voice, looking at Serizawa Ichiro.
“No, General.” Serizawa Ichiro shook his head upon hearing this.
"The lucky ones are not me, but... us humans."

Chapter 299 If you can do it, then you do it.
Two hours later, General McCarthy boarded a plane to leave Monarchy Outpost 54.
"General, are we just going to give up on Monarchy like this?" Inside the transport helicopter, the young adjutant said to General McCarthy with some reluctance.
They have already taken over most of the departments of the Imperial Organization, and now they want to hand over these departments along with their personnel to Serizawa Ichiro, which is quite inconsistent with their military's hardline style.
They represent the face of the military.
"The risks far outweigh the benefits, and we have no other choice." General McCarthy's old face also showed reluctance, but now they had no other option.
He originally thought that Serizawa Ichiro and that alien would not return from the inner world for at least several years, so he took the opportunity to recruit the entire Monarch organization.
I didn't expect them to return so quickly.
What surprised him most was that the alien had no intention of cooperating with him at all, and his words revealed his disdain for him. Moreover, his relationship with Serizawa Ichiro was beyond his imagination.
In terms of cooperation, they could definitely provide each other with more favorable assistance, after all, they have the backing of the military, but the other party firmly chose to let Serizawa Ichiro lead the Imperial Organization.
And most importantly, their power levels are completely unequal.
Within Earth, the power of an individual can never surpass that of a national machine. But for extraterrestrials from a more advanced civilization, the power of a single individual is enough to crush their civilization, and the initiative is always in their hands.
“If we get into a conflict with the other side, only we will suffer losses.” General McCarthy was reluctant to admit this, but it was the truth.
In Mexico, their army also attempted to capture alien giants in human form, but the result was that all their military equipment was rendered useless.
Their firearms are negligible simply because they are in human form; if they were in giant form, their fate might be even more dramatic.
The Oxygen Destroyer is a deadly weapon against the Titans on Earth, but whether it would be effective against alien giants is hard to say, and they dare not gamble on it.
"So we're just going to let an alien run rampant in human civilization?" The adjutant was clearly a hardliner; this was a matter of racial dignity, and he couldn't accept such an outcome.
In his mind, humans should be the most intelligent and powerful race on this planet, and even aliens should not be able to disregard the law in human society.
