(TL: This is bonus chapter #4 for October . Enjoy! And thanks for the Patreon support!)
The bugs that the Bug King bred seemed to pose little threat to humans . It was hard for their mouths to break through tough leather shoes, and they had no sharp stingers to pierce through human skin . The two pairs of wings behind their back were merely decoration . Although they were poisonous, their venom was not strong .
The only decent thing about them was that their movement was quite agile - but only relative to their size . Even a child would have no problem stepping on them .
But they had two advantages which ensured that they live a very happy life on this planet called Earth .
The first was their reproduction rate . Their life cycle - from an egg, to hatching, to sexual maturity, to laying other eggs - only took twelve hours . In addition, each time they laid eggs, the eggs would number over a hundred . They were all hermaphroditic too .
The second advantage was the fact that they would eat anything . These bugs brought un-fussiness in diet to the extreme . They would happily consume any organic matter!
Their reproductive power ensured their frightening number . Coupled with their excellent appetite, anywhere they passed would turn into barren land! They would eat the trees . They would eat the grass . They would eat the insects . They would swarm and devour the cattles and sheeps . Even the worms and ants in the underground could not escape from them!
However, the MIB appeared to have prepared a countermeasure against them . Three agricultural-use helicopters flew into the area . They first sprayed pesticides around the perimeter to form a barricade, then began to spray pesticides that specifically targeted the Bugs . It seemed that this wasn't the first time the Bugs had tried to infiltrate Earth . The MIB was very experienced in dealing with them .
The speed at which the pesticides showed their effect was surprisingly quick . The pesticides did not directly kill the bugs but instead turned them berserk so that they would jump and kill each other . They would leap so high that some of them reached a meter from the ground . The MIB seemed to be thinking long-term and were trying to avoid aftermath pollution as much as possible .
Suddenly, a black shadow flew out of the barn!
The shadow was so fast that it seemed to move beyond the limit of speed . It made a shrill screeching sound as it tore through the air and tangled around the landing gear of one of the agricultural helicopters! It was only now that they saw that the black shadow was actually something that looked like the tail of a scorpion . It was black and oily . Flowing liquid was visible within it . It obviously contained a strong hydraulic force .
The agricultural helicopter pilot knew that the situation was dire so he revved the throttle to the limit in an attempt to break free . The helicopter's engine roared furiously as black smoke spewed crazily out of the exhaust, but to no avail .
The tail burst forth with a great force and pulled the agricultural helicopter back by more than 30 meters . The rotors of the helicopter collided with the outer edge of the barn and shattered . What followed was a deafening explosion .
An MIB agent had rushed too far ahead and had rather unfortunately incurred the miniscule probability of getting hit by a shattered rotor . He was flung about seven meters back and was nailed to a tree . His head was completely wrecked!
The other two agricultural helicopters increased their altitude without hesitation; they did not want to be the next target . Next, the helicopter doors opened to show the MIB agents carrying rocket launchers . The projectiles they fired into the barn were similar to smoke grenades . Instead of exploding, they kept producing a lot of white smoke .
The Bugs obviously didn't find the white smoke comfortable so the smoke grenades that fell into the barn were thrown out one by one . However,the MIB agents patiently and persistently continue to launch them . They finally drowned the barn in a sea of white smoke .
"Prepared for battle . The enemy can at most endure our newly-concocted gas for three minutes before he rushes out," said K with a serious expression .
Sheyan couldn't help himself and remarked:
"If he doesn't escape through the underground sewer, that is . "
K said expressionlessly:
"The sewer system of the barn is extremely simple . Two packs of plastic explosives were enough to block it . "
The sly old fox K was right . Jones only lasted for less than two minutes before he fiercely rushed out . He seemed to have changed into another form, looking like the creature from the movie "Alien" . His exterior was shiny and it was more compact than before . He looked even more intimidating than before .
