In that instant—

The Supreme MUTO, which had extended its massive forelimbs and was about to destroy the entire console, suddenly froze in mid-air in a strange manner.

Its originally crimson eyes were covered by a faint purple layer, as if it had received some command.

Then, it directly changed direction and roared as it charged towards the town where the sound wave pulse emitted by the Magic Sound Orca Device was directed.

Rumble—

The Supreme MUTO unleashed a sound wave roar containing terrifying energy from its mouth, instantly destroying large areas of houses and buildings.

Then, it continued to swing its two massive forelimbs, striking the ground, causing violent earthquakes, wantonly venting its rage in the town.

Compared to a regular MUTO, the Supreme MUTO not only possessed the ability to release powerful electromagnetic pulses but also the ability to cause earthquakes using sound waves.

… …

[Detectable souls available for collection, Warp souls +1, +1, +1… ]

… …

"I actually succeeded?"

Emma Russell's eyes lit up at the sight.

To verify that the previous scene was not a coincidence, she again picked up the Magic Sound Orca Device and fired another psychically-charged sound wave pulse towards a town on the other side.

And the Supreme MUTO, as she had expected, immediately changed direction and rushed towards that urban area, continuing to vent its rage.

Just as Emma Russell was enjoying the soul-shaking ultimate pleasure and was ecstatic about her "awakened" new ability,

Talkan Kavarsky suddenly rushed over, snatched the Magic Sound Orca Device from her hand, pressed the off button, and angrily rebuked:

"Emma, although I don't know how you managed to 'command the Supreme MUTO to attack designated targets,' you should stop quickly…"

"Today, too many innocent civilians have paid the price with their lives due to your misjudgment. If this continues, it will likely be difficult to control the situation in the end."

Clearly, Talkan had keenly perceived something from Emma's repeated attempts.

"Give me back the Magic Sound Orca Device!!"

Emma Russell, like a maddened female leopard, directly pounced on Talkan.

And during their struggle, when Emma Russell's hand touched his skin, he immediately fell into extreme pain.

He directly pulled out the pistol from his waist, pressed it against his temple, and shot himself in a shrill scream.

"That situation from last time has appeared again…"

Emma Russell felt the anger in her heart swept clean, and she stared blankly at her hands, seemingly perceiving some pattern within them.

But before she could fully grasp the insight, the Supreme MUTO, having regained consciousness in the distance, first shook its head, trying to completely clear the feeling of being controlled.

Then, it glanced warily in Emma Russell's direction.

It had sensed a hint of danger from the Magic Sound Orca Device she held.

Driven by instinct,

The Supreme MUTO then swung its massive front claws, which glowed with red pulsating waves, and slammed them heavily onto the ground.

Buzz—

A powerful electromagnetic pulse immediately swept in all directions like a tsunami.

In an instant, all electronic devices on the entire Tesla Island malfunctioned.

And the Supreme MUTO also took the opportunity to burrow back into the ground, quickly disappearing completely.

"Did it escape?"

Emma Russell's face showed a hint of lingering disappointment.

Because with the Supreme MUTO's departure, the indescribable ultimate pleasure and the superpower to clearly distinguish the slightest sounds in a chaotic environment also disappeared.

This couldn't help but create an empty feeling in Emma Russell's heart, gradually developing into pain.

She wished she could immediately experience that ultimate sensation again.

Emma Russell quickly realized that this change in her mindset was somewhat abnormal.

So, she hurriedly shifted her attention to the Magic Sound Orca Device, which had just been destroyed by the electromagnetic pulse.

"It seems I must improve it when I go back. I need to add some protective devices that can resist electromagnetic pulses…"

However, Emma Russell's eyes then lit up, as if she had thought of an astonishingly good idea, and her whole person became excited.

If that previous ability could also work on Godzilla and other Titans, wouldn't she be able to control these Titans to attack targets at will?

If she could truly do that, then she would only need to reawaken all the dormant Titans, control them, and destroy the existing human order…

Ah no, it should be said that she would re-establish the order and balance of humanity, thereby achieving the ultimate goal of peaceful coexistence between humans and Titans.

At this moment, Emma Russell finally found her future goal and direction.

At the same time, the enchanting voice full of magic echoed in her ears again.

"Go forth, as you believe in your heart…"

"Only by making those who ignore you pay a heavy price will they truly realize that you are right, that your ideas are not extreme!"

"And you, too, shall reap ultimate pleasure from death."

… … … …

… …

One day later.

New York, Manhattan.

United Nations Headquarters Building.

An emergency arbitration meeting, organized by the Security Council and not open to the public, immediately devolved into heated debate as soon as it began.

"Dr. Emma, your experiment on Tesla Island was simply a complete disaster."

Alexander Pierce directly ignored Serizawa Ichiro and others, picked up a thick stack of victim lists, and shook it at Emma Russell, saying:

"At least four thousand local residents died in this Monster Attack Event, and nearly ten thousand more suffered injuries of varying degrees, with direct economic losses…"

However,

Before he could finish speaking, Emma Russell on the opposite side interrupted him, cutting him off: "Mr. Secretary, but you cannot deny that I almost succeeded!"

"This attempt is enough to prove that my previous conjecture was completely correct; the sound wave pulses simulated by the ORCA device, mimicking MUTO eggs, do indeed affect the Supreme MUTO's behavior."

"You're right…"

Pierce sneered disdainfully, "Except that the results were completely opposite to your predictions."

Emma Russell ignored his sarcasm and continued to defend herself:

"I previously overlooked a crucial issue, which is that simply mimicking the pulse signals emitted by MUTO eggs cannot deceive the Supreme MUTO."

"It must be simulated as if it's coming from Godzilla's body to truly have a calming effect on the Supreme MUTO."

"So this time, I will make corresponding adjustments to the ORCA device to precisely simulate the same frequency."

At this moment, another member of the Security Council, with a somewhat unfriendly tone, questioned:

"So, once the Supreme MUTO confirms that there are its eggs inside Godzilla, it will voluntarily give up attacking and return to sleep underground?"

"Yes, but…"

This time, the Security Council member didn't wait for Emma Russell to finish her sentence before throwing out his own opinion.

"If that's the case, then I suggest we adopt a non-intervention policy and just let these two monsters fight each other to the death."

"I remember this is similar to the suggestion Dr. Serizawa made when Godzilla first appeared, isn't it?"

Serizawa Ichiro, hearing this, quickly stood up to correct him:

"Esteemed Councilman, the current situation has undergone a significant change. The Supreme MUTO is Godzilla's absolute natural enemy.

If we do not intervene, we might ultimately lose this powerful Guardian of humanity."

"Hmph."

Alexander Pierce exchanged glances with several Security Council members beside him, and they all saw a look of mockery in each other's eyes.

"Dr. Serizawa, although the Security Council does not deny the Monarch Organization's long-standing contributions to finding ways for humanity and Titans to coexist peacefully,

comparing Godzilla to a savior, in our view, is simply too absurd!"

"Monsters are monsters. Their behavior is full of danger and unpredictability, completely beyond human control."

At this point,

He seemed to suddenly remember something, then added with a hint of helplessness, "Of course, except for that big ape in Sokovia."

At this moment, Emma Russell seemed to have already prepared her response, so she stood up before Serizawa Ichiro and said with an extremely firm attitude:

"While comparing Godzilla to a savior is a slight exaggeration, there is no doubt that Godzilla defeating other monsters is more beneficial to humanity…"

"Moreover, if you do not wish to see similar San Francisco Incidents (referring specifically to the Female MUTO incident near San Francisco) repeatedly occurring around the World in the future,

this time, it would be best to completely trust the Monarch Organization's judgment."

"Because once Godzilla, the Monster King, is defeated, it will inevitably trigger a global storm of collective Titan reawakening.

By then, even if you deplete all the nuclear stockpiles of every country in the World, it will be useless."

However, her somewhat threatening words clearly failed to gain the Security Council's attention as she wished.

After all, Hydra was not easily intimidated!

"Dr. Emma, thank you for your well-reasoned explanation." Alexander Pierce said with an extremely firm tone:

"The Security Council has received your opinion… but our decision has not changed. Let those two monsters fight each other to the death. The safety of humanity should rightfully be guarded by humanity itself."

"Dr. Emma, in view of the major disaster you caused on Tesla Island, the Security Council will now, in accordance with relevant regulations,

form an investigation team to conduct a comprehensive and detailed investigation into this incident. We hope you will cooperate fully at that time."

In fact, Alexander Pierce simply didn't care how many people died on Tesla Island or how much damage was caused.

On the contrary, the greater the impact of the incident caused by the Monarch Organization, and the more attention it attracted, the more beneficial it was to his clandestine plans.

That's why he would, as he did now, make a symbolic, understated punishment to Emma Russell.

Moreover, he also saw a hint of "unyielding determination" in the eyes of this crazy woman.

This way,

If the Monarch Organization were to cause any further trouble in violation of regulations after the Security Council had made a reasonable judgment, it would likely provoke a backlash from Nick Fury, thereby attracting more attention from S.H.I.E.L.D..

Alexander Pierce naturally welcomed this.

… … … …

… …

"I originally thought that group of ignorant idiots would listen to our advice. It seems I ultimately overestimated them."

After the meeting, Emma Russell stood in front of the building, saying angrily:

"Dr. Serizawa, see? I was right, wasn't I? They simply don't care about the fate of humanity or the future of the World."

"On this matter concerning the Supreme MUTO, I completely agree with your view. We must help Godzilla overcome this difficulty."

Serizawa Ichiro nodded noncommittally, "Emma, have you already thought of your next move?"

A fleeting glint of cunning flashed in Emma Russell's eyes, and she said with great certainty:

"I have found the pattern of the Supreme MUTO's attacks on nuclear facilities. Whether it was the first two nuclear submarines or the nuclear power plant later, all the targets it attacked used fast neutron breeder reactors."

"This highly matches the radiation pattern emitted by Godzilla itself. I assume this is the main reason why the Supreme MUTO chose these targets."

"And according to the computer's calculated trajectory, the Supreme MUTO's next target is very likely… no, it should be absolutely the Retired Nuclear Submarine Power Core Storage Facility in Montana."

"And this time, it's very likely to be the final battle between the Supreme MUTO and Godzilla."

"I will repair the ORCA device before they start fighting. Even for Talkan, I must stop this slaughter."

Towards the end, Emma Russell even feigned a few tears, as if she was mourning Talkan Kavarsky.

This was definitely not a sudden pang of conscience or guilt for her actions on Tesla Island.

It was merely a simple desire to shake off suspicion.

After all, within just three days, two high-ranking Monarch Organization officials had died in operations they were carrying out with her.

If she couldn't win the trust of Serizawa Ichiro and the others, her subsequent experiments would inevitably be unable to proceed smoothly.

That's why she made such a hypocritical gesture.

But in truth, in her heart, she felt neither sympathy nor guilt for Talkan Kavarsky's "suicide" and the tens of thousands of civilian casualties. She didn't even have the most basic shred of respect.

Instead, to achieve her goals and relive that ultimate pleasure, she was filled with anticipation for the "death" that was about to occur.

Unbeknownst to Emma Russell, Slaanesh's corruption of her had already seeped deep into her bones.
