Due to that, he turned his steering wheel slightly. Coincidentally, a driver who was in a hurry happened to attempt to overtake him at that precise moment. Both of them were shocked when they realised what happened. They steered wildly and slammed hard on the brakes but it was too late. Amidst the shrill screeches of the tires, a serious accident occurred! A chain of collisions and violent explosions followed.
That was the challenge awaiting the Cadillac K was driving! But right at the instant when the collision was about to happen, K dexterously accelerated to avoid the burning frame of a car that was rolling in their direction.
The Cadillac was, however, hit by a human body that was flung towards them!
The body belonged to the earlier driver who had not fastened his seat belt. Life had obviously left his body at the first moment of impact as evident from his deformed chest. In the corner of his eye were tears mixed with cigarette ashes!
The impact from the body left a huge dent on the Cadillac\'s window. A large number of cracks branched out from the center of the dent like cobwebs. However, the toughness and practicality of this Cadillac was beyond imagination. Even with the collision, its speed was not greatly affected. It continued to drive forward arrogantly.
"Someone obviously wants me to stop," proclaimed K calmly, "but why should I oblige him? Nevertheless, this person is pretty amazing. He could actually overcome the calculation speed of 18 times the speed of light of the alien computer on my car to create such an accident and tried to drag me into it."
Aziz suddenly turned solemn:
"I didn\'t expect Fate to be among the people who came here! He finally made a move. Is it because over half the time limit has passed?"
Sheyan shrugged:
"Fate? He sounds pretty arrogant from the name he gave himself."
Aziz said coldly:
"You\'ll understand when you fight with him. This guy is a completely different magic class from mages like Zi and Finarsih. Fighting him was like fighting with the mud. Even if you have a full cartridge of bullets, you won\'t find a target to shoot at."
Sheyan merely shrugged and said:
"You want an MT to fight a magic class? What a great idea."
Aziz\'s mouth curled into a mocking sneer but he did not say anything else. In the distant crowd, a person suddenly covered his mouth and coughed softly. A large amount of blood flowed out from the gaps between his fingers.
"So strong."
His voice was full of disappointment.

They finally reached the MIB headquarters before the participants could completely surround them thanks to K\'s skillful driving. Nevertheless, the rear of the Cadillac still took 2 shots from sniping rifles.
The two shots were launched with exploding armour-piercing bullets that were normally used to deal with the likes of armoured vehicles and tanks. The bullets would first penetrate into the armour, then explode three to five seconds later.
These two shots stripped the Cadillac of its gorgeous appearance and turned it into a fallen phoenix that had its fur plucked clean. However, they still failed to cause substantial damage to the Cadillac\'s engine and the Cadillac soldiered on until it reached the MIB headquarters\' gate.
K immediately ran towards the gate of MIB base as soon as K he got off the car, while at the same time yelling into the microphone on his suit:
"Activate the A-level system alert! I repeat! Activate the A-level system alert!"
"Executioner Z would like to know the reason."
"Goddammit Z, I know that we should focus 99% of our energy and effort to search for the Galaxy, but these guys are crazy! I highly suspect that they\'re Jones\' allies who are trying stop our investigation with violent means."
"How violent? Just take a look at my beloved Annie! My baby is now even uglier than your Beetle… Um, Z, I was just giving an example, I don\'t really mean that your Beetle is ugly……No, that\'s not what I mean!"
"…"
Although the dialogue between the two powerful figures was not that harmonious, Sheyan and Aziz still saw a lot of changes being made as they fled into the MIB base.
Firstly, the gatekeeper changed from a physical body to a 3D image. There were suddenly many inconspicuous sensors lining the walls on the corridor. When the positive and negative poles of these gadgets were connected, they would produce powerful death rays.
These visible sensors served as good attacking targets for intruders. When they were attacked, the real killers would emerge from the ceiling and the ground.
The elevator had been shut down in order to prevent giving the enemies a direct route to the core area of the base. Besides that, the energy saved could also be redirected towards the powerful weapon system.
With K in the lead, the three quickly reached the emergency passage and began a long stair climb. They have to keep cooing like pigeons along the way or they would face some serious consequences. They looked ridiculous.
A few participants had arrived outside the MIB headquarters but they did not advance further. They started sizing up their rivals warily to look for any chances that might be beneficial to them. More importantly, everyone knew that the MIB headquarters was extremely dangerous. No one was willing to take up the role of an MT and carve open a bloody road.
In reality, Sheyan was the only MT who participated in the Bloody World. No party would send their MT to this world that required speed, attack power and quick resolution to battles.
Sheyan and Aziz were very happy to see this deadlock because as time goes, many people will shift their attention from the five invitations letters they carried to those bastards around them. The fragile alliances were so vulnerable that they were simply not comparable to parties.
K brought Sheyan and Aziz to the secret room deep below the base. According to K, even if the world is destroyed, this place would be one of the last areas to go down.
It was obvious that K had stopped worrying about the situation outside after the A-level alert was activated. He simply brought the two of them to the computer room and inputted the bone text symbols into the computer which stored a large amount of data on alien civilizations and cost more than 90 billion US dollars to build. However, he did not get any result.
K no doubt found this unacceptable. Sheyan, however, suddenly recalled a famous saying in the real world in China: For questions on internal affairs, ask Baidu. For questions on foreign affairs, ask Google.
Therefore, without waiting for K\'s consent, he tapped the shoulder of a busty blonde beauty next to them and asked her to help them make a search on her ipad worth USD$125.
The result left them speechless. The $125 had beaten the $90 billion. Google revealed the meaning of the seven different skeleton words one by one:
"Pride, envy, wrath, sloth, greed, gluttony, lust!!!"
"The seven sins……They actually mean the seven sins in theology!"
"The seven negative emotions, also known as the original sins. They\'re the basic motivation for people to perform evil!"
The result of the translation was no doubt out of the expectation of Sheyan and Aziz. It was hard not to attribute the cruel and mysterious ritual to the aliens, but if they consider the sacred atmosphere surrounding the ritual, the seven sins were the most reasonable explanation.
K mumbled something under his breath. Sheyan and Aziz couldn\'t hear him clearly, but it was obvious from his expression that he felt very frustrated with this result because there was no way Jones was a man of faith - at least, there\'s no way he\'s Catholic. This happened to confirm Sheyan\'s words - K\'s wrong judgment had caused the earth to take a large step towards destruction.
At that moment, a harsh alarm sounded throughout the entire MIB base. An electronically synthesized female voice announced:
"All members with combat abilities, all members with combat abilities, please take note. Living creatures have invaded the base. The species of the creatures are unknown, but they should be highly intelligent and have a high probability of being controlled."
Sheyan and Aziz looked at each other and saw the shock in the other\'s eyes. The development had exceeded their expectation. Attacking the MIB headquarters was definitely not a good choice. It was equivalent to provoking the government. They did not expect something like this to actually happen!
A screen instantly cut to the image of a humanoid creature crawling on the ground on all fours. It was entirely covered in mucus and had very sharp claws. Its decaying skull cap was broken through by its deformed brain. The creature then crawled on the ceiling and walls, ignoring gravity.
This thing was no stranger to Sheyan. It was a Licker from the Resident Evil world. Dozens of ferocious beasts followed behind it. These beasts had snake-like heads and wolf-like bodies that were devoid of fur. When they moved, the muscles under their skin squirmed like water, an indication of their explosive power. Their six strong legs looked deformed but extremely fierce.
