Chapter 937: Reaching the Womb

Translator: Sean88888 Editor: Elkassar1

It's worth mentioning that killing this strange gigantic ovum awarded Sheyan and Aziz three achievement points each. This showed that the ovum was definitely very important!

During the following journey, they successfully destroyed two other rolling giant ovums. The senior agents gradually adapted to the violent mental impact of the ovum's dying throes.

When they destroyed another ovum, a large part of the ovum exploded. A viscous, pale yellow bodily fluid and tissue gushed out of the destroyed ovum and covered the area. Sheyan, as someone on the frontline, was naturally soaked in the disgusting stuff as well. He no longer paid any heed to the strange smell. The human body's ability to adapt was very strong. After smelling it for a long time, he found that it wasn't such a big deal after all.

Suddenly, Senior Agent D accidentally stepped on a slippery spot on the ground and fell down. Some of the inner content of the ovum got onto his face.

D was a muscular and short-tempered guy with a brandy nose. He initially wore a gas mask but he often took out a flagon to have a sip, so after observing Sheyan for a while, he had decided to take down his mask.

Sheyan was covered with a large amount of the inner content of the ovum and he seemed fine, so Senior Agent D wasn't concerned. He casually wiped his face and uttered a few English swear words, then went on his way.

However, merely a few minutes later, Senior Agent D suddenly grabbed his face and screamed in horror. His voice was filled with despair and terror. A severe pain overcame his body; he immediately fell down and rolled violently.

Senior Agent C rushed over to help. He hugged D tightly to restrain him, and saw the madly protruding bloodshot eyes of D that had more whites than pupils. They were a horrifying sight. D had completely lost his reason!

C pulled out a high-intensity emergency injection provided by the MIB and stabbed it into D's neck!

The injection contained a special medicine which incorporated extraterrestrial technology. It could be considered an all--purpose medicine. It has extremely powerful effects on all kinds of statuses such as poison, weakness, radiation, near death, etc. It was America's thousand-year-old ginseng, Uncle Sam's ten-thousand-year-old fleeceflower root. (TL: Those are both expensive traditional Chinese medicine)

After the injection, the blood vessels on Agent D's neck and forehead bulged violently. He issued some loud groans and actually stuck his fingers into his own eyes. Blood gushed everywhere. Agent C tightly clamped down on D's arm but to no avail. Instead, he was sent flying by a kick from D. After that, D twitched violently on the ground before going still. It was a horrible way to die. He had even chewed on his own tongue and spat it out!

From the look of it, the injection that C gave him was not a treatment, but simply a powerful poison!

Following the death of Senior Agent D, the faces of both Sheyan and Aziz turned gloomy because both of them received some terrible notifications:

[Warning: One of the Senior MIB Agents under your protection has died. 5 achievement points deducted!"]

[Warning: With every death of a Senior MIB Agent under your protection, the penalty will increase!"]

"Goddammit, if I knew this I wouldn't have let them come. Now we must babysit them," Aziz seemed to be stuck at something due to insufficient achievement points so having 5 achievement points deducted made him very anxious.

The other agents with alphabetic code names felt very distressed at seeing their colleague die such a horrible death as it could easily had been them. Some of them couldn't help but take out their emergency injections to take a careful look. There was a clear look of distrust in their eyes; with what happened to D, they probably wouldn't dare to inject this into their body anymore from now on unless they had no choice.

Their leader, Senior Agent C, was instead very calm. He walked over to his dead colleague and carefully examined the body. All of a sudden, Aziz kicked him away! Then, Aziz coldly thrust his bayonet into D's face and slowly pulled it back out.

Agent C was about to shout at Aziz but he immediately shut his mouth.

Half a body of a Bug that was still twisting and struggling could be clearly seen on the smooth surface of the bayonet! The head of the worm was similar to a centipede with a lot of legs hugging its body. It looked very ferocious. Even after being cut in half by Aziz, it was still about three centimeters long. Its total length probably reached five or six centimeters!

"This thing killed him," said Aziz coldly.

He then cut across D's head. On the cross-section, they could see several such Bugs jumping cheerfully in the flesh like shrimps!

"Oh my God, this..... What in the devil is this?" Even Agent C, who was usually calm, could not help but exclaim in shock. He immediately recorded a video of the scene and transferred it back to the headquarters for investigation. The headquarters sent back the reply in less than ten seconds.

"The appearance of the Bug in the data you sent back matches the appearance of a very common parasite on the earth called the Demodex mite. These mites live in the sebaceous glands and are the natural enemy of women as they]cause blackheads and enlarge pores, among other things. In late stages, they may even cause rosacea, or brandy nose. In the data you transmitted, the sample was not in its complete form, but it was still more than three centimeters in length, while the largest mites on earth were only 0.5mm long - so we couldn't be 100% sure. I hope the information we provided is useful for you."

Sheyan contemplated for a while and said:

"I think I know what happened."

Agent C looked at him and said doubtfully:

"Pray tell."

Sheyan said in a calm tone:

"Agent D's cause of death was his skin disease of rosacea! These cute little guys called the Demodex mites were happily growing in Agent D's nose - and Agent D didn't seem to mind this - but I just realised that when Agent D fell, his face was stained with the contents of the ovum we destroyed, and then the tragedy happened."

"Therefore, I have reason to believe that the contents of the ovum rapidly enhanced the characteristics - and of course, the size - of the Demodex mites. They became violent and started to attack Agent D's brain. This was also caused by your emergency injection. Because these murderers are living creatures, they were probably affected by the emergency injection and become extraordinarily violent!"

However, Agent C still seemed doubtful:

"But this is merely your conjecture."

Sheyan sneered:

"It's easy to verify this. You can drink a bit of the content of the ovum. If the roundworms in your belly don't grow to the size of giant pythons and burst out of your body within a minute, it'll prove that I'm wrong....."

Agent C exclaimed angrily:

"Then how come you're completely fine when you're covered in this damn "egg yolk"?"

Sheyan simply shrugged his shoulders and said:

"Because my immune system is slightly stronger."

Regardless of whether Sheyan's guess was right, all the MIB members including Agent C immediately armed themselves with gas masks, rubber gloves, etc.

They had traveled downwards in the soft fallopian tube for more than 40 minutes when their field of vision finally widened, as if they'd gone from an alley to a plaza. A misty fog surrounded the place. The fleshy-red floor was soft and covered in mucus. There would be a nipple-like protrusion every few meters. The fishy smell had gotten a lot stronger here.

"Have we finally reached the womb?" asked Sheyan as he surveyed the surrounding with narrowed eyes.

Aziz did not immediately answer. Instead, he quickly went around in a large circle around their entry point. He frowned as he said:

"Hell, this place is only as big as a basketball court! That's totally inconsistent with what our data indicated. According to the 3D hologram K showed us, the womb should be the size of at least 5 soccer fields. Could there be various compartments in the womb?"

After the initial inspection by Sheyan and Aziz revealed no danger, the senior MIB agents started their work nervously. Sheyan found an ear belonging to a pig that had not been dissolved yet in the wall of the womb.

This funny incident made Sheyan feel a lot more relaxed because this at least showed that their infiltration was in time. The huge monster had yet to completely matured, since it couldn't even completely devour the farm animals.

The agents soon came back, but they all returned empty-handed. Some of them proposed to use brute force again - aim their guns at the same spot and blast a way through - but they were stopped by Sheyan.
