Chapter 938: An Acquaintance

Faced with their doubts, Sheyan could only sigh and say:

"The hints are actually quite obvious. Just think about it for a bit and you'll realise it! Since this gigantic monster is modeled after the reproductive system of a woman, its functions should be similar too! Can a woman get pregnant by herself? Even artificial insemination needs sperms!"

"So what we need to do now is wait! We'll wait for the fallopian tube to ovulate again, then.....we'll catch the big guy, the one who's definitely not wearing a Durex, the one who can't wait to poke inside! I have a hunch, that guy will be the ultimate secret we're looking for!"

Sheyan had gradually gained the team's respect throughout the journey. He was always the first one to rush into dangerous areas and the one doing the dirty jobs after all. Moreover, his deductions were often accurate. As such, even though Agent C didn't like Sheyan much, he could not overrule Sheyan's decision.

Fortunately, the time bomb that they set up before could be reset from the remote base, so they could afford to wait. However, Senior Agent C still secretly ordered them to fire a volley of shots towards a spot on the red meat wall in the distance. The result left them stunned. A volley of shots from their powerful energy weapons showed no effect at all!

Thus, they could do nothing but wait.

A tremor once again resounded from the fallopian tube in the distance. Their group of people was already very familiar with this ovulation behaviour. They waited in anticipation. Soon, they saw a huge ovum rolling down from the fallopian tube. Thanks to what they'd done before this, the ovum left a trail of viscous liquid along the path it traveled. This liquid was the remnants of the destroyed ovums.

After the ovum rolled into the womb, its momentum did not decrease in the slightest. It kept moving forward until it hit the meat wall on the opposite side. It gently bounced and attached itself to the meat wall.

Some kind of chemical reaction must have happened where the two surfaces came into contact. The liquid on the surface of the ovum emitted a hissing corrosive sound when it touched the meat wall. The meat wall began to dissolve and a large hole appeared to let the ovum roll inside.

Sheyan and his group immediately followed the ovum inside with no hesitation. Sure enough, after they got in, they realised that the meat wall had begun to heal slowly. The hole completely closed up in less than five minutes.

Following behind the rolling ovum, they entered another space inside the womb. Another ovum had stopped here and it appeared to have been inseminated. The inseminated ovum had inflated a lot and was pulsating like a heart. There was a crack in the shape of a cross on top of it. From the crack, some kind of liquid would gush forth from time to time. The liquid was probably something akin to amniotic fluid.

Without the need for Sheyan to remind them, the senior agents straightaway buried a bomb underneath it. They then observed the ovum which had just rolled in like curious children to see what would happen to it.

The new ovum rolled towards the fertilised one. When the two collided, the new ovum was naturally no match for the larger fertilised ovum and was thus bounced away. Nipple-like protrusions on the ground started to eject some liquid which would adhere to the surface of the new ovum. The new ovum rolled pitifully towards another meat wall, then proceeded to corrode it and roll inside.

Sheyan's group immediately followed behind it. This time the ovum finally encountered an empty room. In the middle of the room, which was also the lowest point in the room, there was a pit that seemed to fit the ovum perfectly. The ovum happily rolled into the pit and finally found a place where it belonged. It sat there contentedly.

At this time, Sheyan suddenly said with a weird look on his face:

"Hey, guys. The thing that will happen next is very likely.....something we've all done before! Will we get a facial if we stay here?"

All of them were men. When they heard the word "facial", they immediately thought of something that's not for kids! It might not matter for a woman, but a man would find that really hard to stomach unless they were someone on the bottom in a certain kind of relationship.....

Even Aziz, who was normally calm, displayed a complicated expression. He looked around and found that there was no place to take cover in. He said vehemently:

"We can't let this happen to us. We must stop the situation before it develops!"

The outer layer of the huge ovum that was lodged in the ground started to peel off and dissolve into smoke, drifting towards the top where a circular row of holes was visible. The smoke quietly dispersed there. The inside of the giant ovum was very strange in appearance. It looked like a pig brain contained in a plastic bag. It was mainly yellowish-white in colour and contained wisps of blood.

Following the "success" of the ovum, a hole opened up on the ceiling. It turned out that right on top of the ovum was something similar to a valve that could conveniently open and close.

Immediately afterwards, a brutal, gigantic thing which was muddy yellow in colour slowly descended. Its sharp limbs shined with a metallic luster, and a transparent spider-silk-like thread hung behind its butt. The thread periodically stretched and contracted, looking like it could break any moment, but it simply refused to break!

Sheyan sighed when he saw that and said:

"I was wondering why we didn't see this guy. Turns out he's staying here as the stud horse..."

That's right, the huge thing hanging from the top could only be Jones! He seemed to have discovered Sheyan's group waiting for him, and his relaxed demeanor rapidly descended into a panic. He desperately wielded his limbs, grabbing at the transparent thread behind his butt in an attempt to change course and escape.

Unfortunately, Aziz had already pulled the trigger. A bullet covered in flame easily cut - or rather, burned - through the tough spider silk. Jones the Bug King fell down awkwardly and thrust into the ovum that he was supposed to fertilise. The movement of his sharp limbs smashed the poor ovum into smithereens, spreading disgusting liquid and tissue everywhere.

Sheyan's expression was grim. The content of the ovum could cause mites that were originally only slightly harmful to the human body to undergo abnormal mutation and growth, after which the became strong enough to tear their human host apart. If it caused Jones' strength to increase further, they would have a big problem.

Fortunately, Sheyan's worries did not come true.

The genetic material in the huge ovum actually had two functions. The first was to improve the gene fragment information carried by the sperm, and the second was to perfect the unstable DNA of the newly-formed life. Unfortunately, the improvement and perfection were limited to bugs because the secondary structure of human DNA was a left-handed double helix, while the structure of the DNA carried by the ovum was a ring. It was similar to how a high-speed train could not travel on a subway rail. It was something totally unrealistic. This was why Sheyan was not afraid of being polluted by the ovum.

As the king of the alien Bugs, Jones' DNA had already been highly perfected, so he also did not enjoy the effects! Before he could scramble out of the destroyed ovum, the senior MIB agents had already pulled the trigger without the slightest bit of hesitation!

The beams from high-energy weapons ruthlessly shot through the air and landed on Jones. Unfortunately, the skin specifically mutated by Jones easily removed the threat of these light beams. The unfortunate one was the ovum behind Jones, which was blasted into pieces. The huge force from the beams volleyed Jones into the air and slammed him onto the meat wall at his back.

Although Jones seemed to be constantly on the back foot from the moment he appeared, the large size of his body alone was enough to give them a sense of oppression. It made Sheyan feel like he was facing a giant invisible wall. If even Sheyan felt that way, one could imagine the pressure on the MIB agents who were purely human!

Sheyan rushed at Jones and pierced Jones' abdomen with his saber!

After taking such a brutal hit, Jones screamed out loud and swept down with his two abnormal forelimbs. Sheyan was blown away by the hit. When the forelimbs hit the soft, fleshy ground, the force of the impact caused the ground to burst with an explosion of flesh. The shockwave also caused a great amount of blood to erupt from the ground, obscuring everyone's vision!

Sheyan's attempt at grabbing Jones' attention was successful. Aziz had quietly aimed his dark muzzle at Jones and locked on to him like a radar! A large amount of dense fire elements appeared out of thin air and gathered around the front end of the muzzle.

Aziz was angered. There was only one outcome for anyone who dared to offend him.

Destruction!

A terrible pillar of golden-red fire was ejected from Aziz's muzzle, accompanied by a thick layer of smoke. The pillar of fire gradually dispersed following the passing of time and distance, but the bullet was long gone.

Bullets were only terrifying if they couldn't be seen! This one shot from Aziz could be said to be the culmination of his power! However, Aziz had overlooked one thing, and that was, without Sheyan risking his life in the frontline, how could Aziz have done so beautifully? Sheyan contributed for at least 60% of this shot, and that was just the conservative estimate.
