Chereads / The Rise of the Blood Mosquito / Chapter 187 - Chapter 24: The Biggest Weakness of the Giant Mosquito!

Chapter 187 - Chapter 24: The Biggest Weakness of the Giant Mosquito!

The forefoot knife-shaped keratin swiftly moved downward!

The sharp tip exuded a chilling aura!

But no one could see it clearly at all!

Can you see the speed of sound?

No! So now you can't see Jia Yan either!

Especially up close, the closer the distance to the giant mosquito, the more it appeared as a blur, just a string of afterimages flying past!

Jia Yan himself was like this too!

But relatively, he just couldn't see the surrounding things clearly, and now he couldn't see the surrounding things at all!

As the metallic monster in front of him approached closer and closer, its body became more and more blurred, and this approach was still enlarging. At this moment, Jia Yan could hardly even see the detailed structure of the opponent's body!

"Extend your forefoot quickly!"

Jia Yan roared in his heart! His knife-shaped keratin had already extended halfway, but he still felt unable to catch up with the speed!

The speed of sound was too terrifying! The enemy that was just in the distance a moment ago had now been rapidly brought close to him! Jia Yan couldn't even react in time!

Almost as soon as he entertained the thought of "attack" himself, the metallic monster was already in front of him!

He was caught off guard!

And at this moment, Jia Yan's consistently maintained good mentality in battles showed!

For an ordinary person encountering such a tense situation, they would definitely make continuous mistakes, but Jia Yan's mindset was still okay, he was stabilizing his mentality at this moment, and then silently chanting to himself, "I can definitely do it! I can definitely do it!"

Under the encouragement of this thought, the keratin of his forefoot that he extended became relatively stable!

Everything happened in an instant!

Just as Jia Yan was about to feel that his mindset was stable and was about to relax!

Pff!!――

He only felt that something had pierced his forefoot keratin. Exaggerated! Had he hit something already!

Jia Yan was greatly shocked!

The speed of sound was too fast, too fast!

Even Jia Yan himself was frightened by the speed. How could the metallic monsters react to it!?

At this moment, some of the metallic monsters were still aiming at the position where Jia Yan, the giant mosquito, had been before, launching attacks!

But those red lights only pierced through the night sky, flying into the vast darkness. Not to mention the giant mosquito, even a single mosquito hair couldn't touch them!

And while they were attacking, this giant mosquito monster, which caused them headaches, had already descended to the ground and launched an attack on one of their comrades!

Don't forget, these metallic monsters have a unique way of communication. When the metallic monster attacked by Jia Yan, its information was transmitted to all the metallic monsters present through this method. They all knew that the giant mosquito being attacked had already landed on the ground and was attacking their comrade!

And at this moment, Jia Yan's body swiftly pierced the metallic monster in front of him!

Jia Yan barely managed to take a look at the guy he hit at this moment! Good job, it was indeed that metallic monster!

But the hit was slightly off from what he had expected, but fortunately, it still pierced the "heart" shell of the metallic monster!

In an instant, this metallic monster lost its ability to attack, but its injured area didn't seem very serious. It lost its ability to attack but still reported Jia Yan's position to the other metallic monsters. Those monsters, through some calculations in the dark, poured red light towards the direction Jia Yan was passing through!

Fortunately, Jia Yan's flight style was not rigid either. When he pierced the metallic monster, he had already made a maneuver, and with his ultra-high speed, even though the metallic monsters' calculation abilities were super strong, for him, who was flying at the speed of sound and changing direction, it was still inadequate!

Boom! Boom! Boom!!――

More than ten red lights poured down on the ground, these red light attacks were simply a massive covering attack like a huge artillery barrage, the power of these weapons equivalent to human artillery battalion's large-caliber weapons. When all deployed, they were extremely powerful! But no matter how powerful, they were useless if they couldn't hit the target!

In the air, Jia Yan noticed that the accuracy of the metallic monsters' attacks on him suddenly improved. He immediately realized that although the metallic monster he pierced with his forefoot had lost its ability to attack, even its self-destruct ability, it was still alive.

"So it's you causing trouble!" A glint flashed in Jia Yan's compound eyes!

Then another forefoot ruthlessly pierced into the heart of this metallic monster, completely destroying it this time, and then dropped it from the sky to the ground!

"Very good! Now the method of attack is also established, and the weaknesses and reaction speed of these metallic monsters are tested. Now... it's time for me to show my might!"

Jia Yan's compound eyes gleamed as he looked at the metallic monsters below him!

After this series of battles, with both offense and defense, there were times when Jia Yan was in danger, but in fact, Jia Yan's strength far surpassed these metallic monsters. Now that he understood their tactics, Jia Yan could naturally launch attacks against them!

Whooo! Whooo! Whooo!!――

The giant mosquito's body soared into the air!

Breaking through the speed of sound once again!

The metallic monsters had some powerful traits, which were the reasons for Jia Yan's several crises before!

The first point was their mutual communication of information, this communication method was indeed advantageous. As long as one of them engaged in battle with Jia Yan, the others could immediately know the relevant information, and when they fought Jia Yan again, they would directly target his weaknesses!

The second point was the self-destruct ability of these metallic monsters, which was possibly the most feared ability for Jia Yan now! After all, if it was those red light attacks, Jia Yan could withstand several of them without any worries, but these immensely powerful self-destruct attacks were different. The way their power was calculated couldn't be compared to the existing weapons of the human race on Earth! This kind of self-destruct seemed to have a special penetrating power, capable of effectively penetrating Jia Yan's current defense. The surface clots and exoskeleton were easily pierced, and the azure defense didn't have time to defend against it, so it would be damaged by the attack!

Except for these two points, Jia Yan was basically not afraid of anything else. After all, since he mutated, his current strength was incomparable to before!

Now, with Jia Yan's attack method, after understanding the opponent's attack pattern and advantages, it changed!

The metallic monsters had information communication, which was fine! Jia Yan could try to attack the isolated ones as much as possible. When his strength reached a certain level, their advantage of information sharing wouldn't be effective anymore!

As for the second point, Jia Yan's solution was - to eliminate them before they could react with the fastest speed possible!

An attack at the speed of sound, to put it bluntly, was just a violent attack! Anything at the speed of sound was unimaginable. If such a thing were to collide with something, it would be

 earth-shattering. Just like Jia Yan now, if he wanted to collide with a building, as long as he collided with it at the speed of sound, that building would collapse under his impact!

Of course, Jia Yan wouldn't use such a mutually destructive method!

And now the fighting style he displayed was to use his super-sonic attack method, then launch the attack when the metallic monsters couldn't react in time. For now, his idea seemed correct!

But this kind of attack was really exhausting! Too exhausting!

Jia Yan felt a bit like he was using a cannon to hit 'mosquitoes', even though he should be the one considered a 'mosquito'...

His sonic attacks shouldn't be used on these metallic monsters. After all, once he got familiar with them, they didn't seem extremely terrifying. But if Jia Yan didn't do this, he couldn't guarantee his own safety...

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!!――

The giant mosquito's body once again pierced through the sound barrier, impaling another metallic monster with its forefoot knife-shaped keratin!

Finally, after he killed this metallic monster with such exhaustion, he realized where his biggest weakness lay!

"It turns out that my biggest weakness is the lack of long-range attack methods! No wonder I've felt so tired in battles for so long!"

He finally realized his vulnerability! All this time, his attack methods had been melee. Perhaps melee combat didn't seem so much of a disadvantage before, but now that his strength had reached this level, when his opponents changed from former creatures to current aircraft, metallic monsters, and human warriors, his greatest weakness had emerged!

That was the lack of any long-range attack method!

"If I had a long-range attack method, even if it's not very powerful, it could at least help a bit! But how can I have one?"

As the battle gradually became easier for Jia Yan, with the decreasing number of metallic monsters below, he felt relatively relaxed. Moreover, the use of supersonic flight attack methods made these metallic monsters helpless!

Breaking through the sound barrier time and time again, then launching attacks time and time again!

The number of metallic monsters decreased rapidly!

And Jia Yan's accumulated fatigue increased rapidly.

But thanks to the use of sonic attack methods, Jia Yan's danger suddenly became very low. Those metallic monsters couldn't catch Jia Yan's figure at all, and even if Jia Yan occasionally missed an attack, he would quickly shuttle through the metallic monsters' location. Even if they wanted to self-destruct, they wouldn't have time!

So, during the battle, Jia Yan became a little distracted.

He was thinking about his biggest shortcoming, which was the lack of a long-range attack method. How could he solve this problem!

The number of metallic monsters below was decreasing, and the remaining monsters were just opponents for Jia Yan to gain practical combat experience against!

In the end, only one metallic monster was left.
