Taylor had watched Ghidorah's comeback the entire time. After all, Ghidorah was so enormous that even lowering its heads to bite the power plant and absorb energy was impossible to miss.
Ghidorah's energy absorption far exceeded Taylor's expectations. Less than a minute had passed from the moment Godzilla was knocked back two steps to when it reacted, yet in that single minute, Ghidorah had absorbed the power plant's electricity and strengthened itself beyond Godzilla.
Such a terrifying absorption rate was exceedingly rare even in wizarding records—at least, among the records Taylor had access to.

Ghidorah stared at Mothra's battered, weakened body. It remembered that countless years ago, when Godzilla had driven it into Antarctica, Mothra had been among the Titan beasts present.
Though this was not the same one,
