Sheyan suddenly pounced. His body stretched out in the air. Even right now, two strange worms twisted in the air and flew towards Sheyan, then tore off two chunks of flesh from his body. However, they could not stop Sheyan from advancing.
But Sheyan inexplicably did not pounce towards Ritz\'s headless body. He aimed at an empty spot to the side instead. If there was a bystander there, they would surely think that Sheyan had lost his mind.
The sharp edge of \'+7 West\' tore through the air and the thick white fog, slashing straight down.
That\'s right! Sheyan did not make a mistake. He was aiming for something else - the head thrown by Ritz before the battle! Its role was merely to release the white fog, or so it seemed. It was just sitting there afterwards. Why would Sheyan hack at it?
With the swishing sound of the blade splitting the air, the head that looked broken and worn-out miraculously jumped up. From the severed section of its neck, eight spider-like steel claws popped out. It managed to narrowly avoid Sheyan\'s blade.
However, Sheyan had planned this move for a long time beforehand so he was prepared for it. Sparks flew as the blade hit the ground, and Sheyan, who was carried forward by his momentum, gently pressed his left hand to the ground, rolled forward, and gave the head a good ol\' soccer kick!
Sheyan\'s strength had reached a pretty impressive level by now so one could imagine the power contained in this kick. After the head flew away for five to six meters, it made a disgusting, dull thud sound as it hit the wall and bounced off.
From the moment the head hit the wall, the headless body had remained stationary without taking any further actions. Only those disgusting worms continued to slither like snakes to chase after Sheyan.
However, as far as their crawling speed was concerned, they couldn\'t even catch up to ordinary humans, let alone Sheyan. These worms apparently could not adapt to the earth\'s oxygen-rich environment, so after wriggling actively for a few minutes, they fell limp and started decomposing at an alarming rate. In the end, only a few spots of sticky liquid remained.
Sheyan instantly rushed towards the direction where the head was flung. Although the weird head broke four mechanical steel legs when it landed, it struggled to stand up with the remaining four mechanical legs it had and tried to wobble away like a drunk person. Sheyan sneered, grabbed the hair on the head, and lifted the head up.
"Mr. Ritz, you have two choices…"
Sheyan hadn\'t even finished his words when a milky white mucus mixed with blood was spat out from the mouth with a few broken teeth, straight onto Sheyan\'s face. The situation looked very similar to the scene of an unyielding hero spitting in the face of an enemy who asked for his surrender.
Sheyan sighed.
"Very well. You\'ve chosen the worst possible option."
Sheyan studied the head for a while before grabbing it by its hair and swung it wildly in the air. Then, he put his fingers behind the ears of the head and gently pressed down. Almost at once, a white gas began to spurt out from the head\'s nostrils and ear holes.
A strange thing happened next. Mr. Ritz\'s face suddenly stiffened, then opened from left to right like a mask to reveal the secret underneath.
Inside was a very small cockpit. A humanoid creature about the size of an unpeeled peanut sat inside, its hands hung down powerlessly with each palm gently placed upon a pink crystal ball. Seemed like it controlled the body with its mind through the crystal balls.
The texture of the little creature\'s skin was like a silkworm - gray, rough, but soft. Its most impressive feature were its two eyes which almost occupied a-third of its entire face.
This was the real Mr. Ritz, the one with the tri-identity of: Ritz, the courteous human bartender / Ritz, the observer & researcher from Dwarf Planet 3 stationed on earth / Defender Ritz, second-class military officer from Dwarf Planet 3 stationed on earth.
"For anyone who wishes to kill me, I will deal with them in the same way, be they aliens or earthlings."
Sheyan wiped away the spit on his face and said sinisterly. He behaved like a textbook villain.
Mr. Ritz groaned weakly and spat out a bunch of white foam from its tiny mouth which look pretty similar to the white foam that fishes spat out after they left water for a long time. Then, the stubborn guy raised his small hand that only had two fingers and bent one of them, flipping Sheyan off with his remaining finger to show his contempt.
Sheyan was also at his wit\'s end with this stubborn bastard. Suddenly, he could feel a strong threat rapidly closing in from the distance. Soon, two bright lights from a car shone through the dense fog.
Sheyan\'s expression hardened. He then sighed regretfully. This is the crazy thing with the Men in Black world.
In this parallel universe, America had become the owner of the Earth harbour of this universe, and had began their contact with aliens. Now, there were many aliens who came here out of curiosity or to explore the wilderness for a vacation. In order to better understand human life, the aliens used their technology to create \'organic human suits\'. Thousands of aliens live among the humans wearing these suits.
Most people could never imagine that the sneaky man selling stolen goods downstairs was actually an intergalactical black market merchant, or that the busty cashier from the supermarket was actually controlled by an old man in her head, or that the body of a random hobo might be filled with alien bugs…
In order to manage these aliens and deal with the conflicts between them and other humans, and more importantly, in order to cover up the fact that they existed, the Men in Black was established. They exist for two purposes. Against outsiders, they would eliminate those who refuse to follow the rules and interstellar laws. Against earthlings, they were responsible for brainwashing witnesses and the public, eliminating memories and preventing the spread of information regarding aliens on earth.
For Sheyan, he was more concerned with ??the mighty weapons possessed by the Men in Black. These weapons were created with technologies that were decades ahead of earthen technology, and would be deadly to anyone. The Men in Black must have discovered that the alien\'s \'organic human suit\' had met with an accident, so they rushed here to investigate.
Sheyan pulled Ritz out from the head cockpit, then shoved Ritz into a used condom he found on the ground as revenge. He quickly disappeared within the night after that.
Perhaps ordinary humans can\'t escape the pursuit of the Men in Black, but for the mighty contestants, as long as they did not directly run into the Men in Black, they still had a high chance of escaping.
After running for two blocks, Sheyan turned the corner in a hurry and entered a subway station. For a city that doesn\'t sleep like New York, no matter what time it was, there would be no shortage of people bustling around. After Sheyan got on the subway, he jumped back out the moment the subway door was about to close. He then walked out, stole a car, and drove to the Hudson River Estuary in Jersey where the Statue of Liberty was.
However, after just five to six kilometers, his suddenly heard a low engine roar. It was exactly the sound of the old-fashioned but brand-new Cadillac unique to the Men in Black!
Sheyan sucked in a deep breath. He was really surprised. He had clearly escaped from them previously, but their efficiency was so high that they instantly got back on his trail again like mad dogs.
He immediately racked his brain for a plan, but then he saw through the rearview mirror that, in front of the Men in Black\'s Cadillac, there was a speeding old Ford that was almost falling apart. Sheyan instantly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the target of their chase was not him but the unlucky old Ford. Sheyan speculated that the person in the Ford should either be an alien or a contestant. Sheyan\'s thoughts were leaning more towards a contestant.
The old Ford\'s tires sprouted white smoke, and slipped on the road amidst the shrill sound of friction. A figure suddenly jumped through the roof of the speeding car and curled into a ball while holding his head. He crashed heavily into the car next to him. The impact made a distinct concave shape in the car\'s hood and completely shattered the car\'s windshield!
The performance of the Men in Black\'s Cadillac was 10,000 times better than that of the old Ford. It steadily came to a halt in the middle of the road. Two expressionless men in black suits came out holding funny-looking guns in their hands. The guns were at most one-fifth the size of an ordinary handgun, like mini toy guns that children under the age of three played with However, Sheyan felt a strong sense of threat emanating from these "toy guns"!
Although the person who jumped out of the car looked heavily hurt, he was not dead. He jumped up with an angry roar. Instead of running away, he charged forward wildly by stepping onto the roof of cars, leaving a messy trail everywhere he passed through. Then, he lifted a car, and was ready to throw it!
While Sheyan was gleefully watching the action, he suddenly heard a rhythmic knock from the car window beside him. He instantly broke out in cold sweat! Someone actually managed to get so close to him without him realising it at all! Who would do this kind of thing at this time?
