Chapter 937: Pyrrhic Victory

Chapter 939: Pyrrhic Victory

Translator: Sean88888 Editor: Elkassar1

Because Jones was extremely wary of the power of the MIB's energy weapons, he had expended a lot of effort to mutate his exoskeleton to make him almost immune to those weapons. However, it came at a great cost.

To explain it in simple terms, let's assume the Jones that had evolved to his peak form had 100 points of life energy. If he'd followed his previous direction of evolution, he'd only need to spend 10 points of life energy on his carapace. The remaining 90 points of life energy could be used to strengthen other aspects of himself.

However, to evolve a carapace that was immune to energy weapons consumed 60 points of life energy. He only had 40 life energy remaining to assign to attack, speed, HP and agility. His all-round attributes naturally took a big hit.

And of course, Jones' resistance to firearm-type physical weapons had also weakened a considerable extent!

Aziz's shot hit Jones on the right shoulder and instantly erupted into flame and explosions. Almost the entire right side of Jones' upper body had vaporised, with the exposed wound burnt and uneven. Half a chelicera hung limply from his body. Green liquid gushed out from the wound as the wound continued emitting smoke.

Tongues of flame that spread to the surrounding ignited the ground, turning the area surrounding Jones into a sea of ​​fire. Even the shattered ovum was burnt!

Jones screamed furiously. He spun in the air and aimed for Aziz. The current Jones was a mix between a cockroach and a spider, but he had several long legs that were so sharp they sent chills down one's spine.

This attack he launched was an offensive move and a defensive move at the same time. If he brought out the bone blades on both sides of his body, the attack would become incomparably vicious. If he hit Aziz, Aziz would probably be shredded to death!

If did not bring out the bone blades, he could bounce around like a snooker ball and spread his spider silk about.

Right when Jones was about to hit Aziz, Sheyan suddenly charged in from the side with a phantom of a fierce bison behind him and smashed into Jones. That was the 'Hornrage' ability from Sheyan's ring. Jones was immune to the stun effect, but the impact from the collision caused him to deviate by about 3 meters and fly past Aziz.

However, even though the distance between Aziz and Jones had widened, the distance between Sheyan and Jones had shortened! Jones immediately turned around and stared daggers at Sheyan with a pair of ferocious crimson eyes, then issued a deafening scream!

The scream was rather similar to Reef's 'Cardiac Shattering Roar'. A turbid flow of air blew in every direction. Upon closer inspection, one would find the airflow filled with a large number of tiny bugs. They converged on Sheyan's body and turned him into a statue in an instant, making it difficult for him to move!

They took Sheyan by surprise. Due to the dim environment, Sheyan only had 'Photon-Rejuvenation' which had a recovery effect on him right now. He was rendered immobile.

Jones immediately lifted his two forelimbs high in the air. Similar to the way a kung fu master would begin his attack with a starting pose, that was Jones' signature pose before he striked. After the temporary pose, the violent alien lord smashed down on Sheyan's face!

The feeling of sharpness, the power in the fierce cut, they were like lightning tearing through the sky!

Every time Jones flung his claw, the thick, long claw would produce seven or eight illusionary images in the air which would form whirlwinds that enveloped Sheyan's strong body, throwing him up in the air like a toy. The claw whirlwinds kept increasing in number and seemed to have infinite grinding power! Sheyan's feet couldn't even touch the ground so he was completely unable to dodge. All he could do was tightly huddle in the air, hugging his head to protect it.

Fortunately, Aziz's gun sounded. Jones was still in shock at the moment and the pain in his body had not disappeared, so he retracted a chelicera in a hurry to carry out a defensive action. Little did he expect Aziz's shot to be aimed at Sheyan instead. The bullet sped towards Sheyan but it exploded ten centimeters in front of Sheyan's chest. The force generated by the explosion pushed Sheyan over five meters away without doing any significant damage to him.

However, Jones wasn't someone who was easy to deal with. The moment he saw Sheyan being sent flying, a black shadow shot out like lightning from his butt. It was a stinger that looked like the tail of a scorpion! It pierced through the right side of Sheyan's chest before retracting!

Sheyan rolled a few times on the ground before climbing up while holding his chest, a bitter smile on his face. Blood gushed out from the cracks between his fingers. He was about to say something but he couldn't help coughing. As soon as he coughed, more than ten horrible wounds opened up on his body at the same time! Blood spurted everywhere. Sheyan stumbled back a few steps and fell back down to the ground.

'Jones is truly ferocious. If I hadn't advanced into a Growth Hunter, that round of attacks would've probably sent me into a state of near death!' Sheyan wiped away the bloodstain on his lips and appeared to be in deep thought. He had realised his own shortcomings.

Firstly, compared to a traditional MT, he lacked a shield that could be used in an emergency. Secondly, he also lacked a domain ability like those displayed by Zeus and Skull, which could play a great role in the fight. If Reef was in his place, Reef certainly would not have been beaten so badly.

All of a sudden, the meat walls around the place vibrated. The nipple-like protrusions on the ground began to emit a faint crimson mist. Soon, the whole place was covered in the crimson mist. The originally smooth outer walls started squirming. The atmosphere of the whole place turned very strange. The blurry environment greatly restricted their vision.

"Shoot at its wounds," Aziz suddenly spoke. When the MIB agents saw their energy weapons fail them, they originally felt very dejected. But when they heard what Aziz said, they came to a sudden realisation. All of them lifted their guns and fired!

All of the agents there were veterans in battle. As such, the senior agents were all very accurate with their shots. Jones managed to avoid several shots, but when Senior Agent C aimed at the wound on the right side of Jones's body and pulled the trigger, the shot connected. The part of his body which had lost the protection of the carapace suffered yet another injury. Large lumps of flesh and blood exploded from the wound!

Jones instantly screamed in agony. The pain squeezed out the last bit of potential in him. Before Senior Agent C could react, Jones had already rushed in front of him and struck him with a claw. He was involuntarily flung a few meters high in the air and was slammed by the accelerating Jones. Jones carried Agent C and charged into a meat wall at the side!

Jones stopped to gasp for breath after the collision. The horns on his head had blood and a faint yellow fluid dripping down from them. Senior Agent C's bulletproof vest had completely shattered and his chest had completely collapsed inwards. He stared forward with empty eyes. His body was held up by the horns and was swaying slightly. He was obviously dead.

[Warning: One of the Senior MIB Agents under your protection has died. 7 achievement points deducted!"]

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

Sheyan and Aziz received the notifications again. Sheyan could still accept it but Aziz almost went berserk! The first time an MIB agent died, 5 achievement points were deducted. The second time it happened, 7 achievement points were deducted. Will they see a 10 point deduction the third time it happened?!!

Aziz's mood was akin to seeing a beautiful naked woman on a bed only one step away from him, but unfortunately, as time went by, he was getting further and further away from her!! One could imagine how mad he felt at seeing something he was so close to getting his hands on slipping away from him.

The furious Aziz inexplicably rushed towards Jones!

A gunman like him was actually going up for a melee fight!

Within one exchange, Jones' claw had already pierced through Aziz's chest. However, Aziz had also seized the opportunity to stab the bayonet on his gun into one of Jones' compound eyes!

The attack made Jones howl in pain. That wasn't all. Aziz viciously pulled on the trigger of the rifle and shot Jones' eye into a deep black hole. The bullet penetrated all the way into the brain!

Jones screamed in agony but still managed to thrust his terrifying chelicera towards Aziz. Luckily, Sheyan had reached them in time. He sank his shoulders into Aziz and bumped him away, but his left hand was severed by the chelicera instead! The severed arm flew three meters away while spraying blood!

Neither Sheyan nor Aziz could have imagined how fierce this battle turned out to be. When the MIB agents saw them fight desperately with their lives on the line, they finally realised how much danger they were in. If they don't fight with everything they have, they would surely die here today. They immediately came forward and fired a volley of shots at Jones.

About 1/4 of the mutated carapace covering Jones' body had been destroyed. At the same time, he had to constantly protect his head. Jones was instantly strained and had to desperately defend. After a while, he finally made a mistake. The wound on the right side of his body was once again shot and another explosion occurred! His body was close to breaking down.....

But even when he was about to die, Jones still severed his own claw and threw it viciously at an MIB agent, killing him and nailing him to the wall! Although Sheyan blasted Jones head off with the 'Beast of Corrosion' on the next second, but....he couldn't prevent the death of the Senior MIB Agent!

Sheyan and Aziz both had another 10 achievement points deducted!

This group of MIB agents had made each of them lose 22 achievement points in total!! 22 achievement points!!

Aziz's heart was dripping with blood.... He could only look towards Jones's body with anticipation, hoping that the loot could give him some comfort....
