The surface of the body was almost entirely a deep blue color!
This deep blue hue was entirely due to the attacks of the metallic monsters!
Among these deep blue colors, there were countless traces resembling cracks.
In those places with cracks, there were areas without the protection of the deep blue substance.
These areas seemed to rely on their own defenses to resist the enemy's attacks because there wasn't enough deep blue substance to cover them!
The attacks of the red light, although Jia Yan's body had condensed defenses and exoskeletons, could withstand one or two attacks, but if too many red lights attacked the same place in succession, these defenses would quickly weaken!
Under the barrage of dozens of attacks earlier, those areas without the deep blue defense were directly heavily damaged!
Ghastly wounds appeared on Jia Yan's body!
In some places, there were even some unidentified colored liquids flowing out.
The color of mosquito blood shouldn't be red, but at this moment, the blood flowing out of these wounds was bright red!
Jia Yan saw his body bleeding for the first time, but there were so many strange things about his body that he didn't pay much attention to this red blood after a glance...
He shook his body.
His gaze scanned the other side, continuing along the main road towards the direction of Tan City, where the metal monster army had been advancing.
Due to his interception just now, the number of this army, which had originally been over a thousand, had directly reduced to only about seven hundred. In other words, Jia Yan's battle had directly caused losses equivalent to the recent major battle in China, which involved metal monsters!
No other army had caused losses of more than three hundred metal monsters, and they had even suffered losses of several thousand of their own!
After observing the metal monsters for a while, the giant mosquito creature flapped its wings again...
Buzz...
The sound was no longer as violent as before but rather had the feeling of the initial flight of a small mosquito, feeble and without vigor, as it soared into the sky.
Jia Yan's figure moved towards Tan City.
Initially just outside the outskirts of Tan City, within a minute or two, Jia Yan's figure returned to the sky above Tan City.
At this moment, the metal monster army had still not arrived.
He wanted to take advantage of their arrival and retrieve his notebook bag from home before they arrived.
Although he had planned to store the notebook bag on the rooftop of his own home, after seeing the devastating power of the gray-blue stones, he changed his mind.
It's better to keep such powerful means under his control!
Moreover, whether the metal monsters had the ability to detect the gray-blue stones was unknown, after all, these things were extracted from their bodies!
A great battle between the giant mosquito creature and the metal monsters unfolded and ended in an open wilderness, unseen by anyone except for a few humans!
However, besides these humans, there was another entity that witnessed this epic battle!
This entity was none other than the spy satellite hundreds of kilometers above the heads of the two warring parties!
The outcome of the battle shocked the humans who were monitoring it. Because the amount of data that the satellite could transmit was limited, it could only provide intermittent image data. Therefore, they did not witness the specific process of the battle, let alone the gray-blue stones. After all, the resolution of the satellite was barely sufficient to see the metal monsters on the ground, let alone see the tiny gray-blue stones that were ejected at supersonic speeds. It was almost like a pipe dream to expect to see them!
So, when these humans saw the giant mosquito creature and the metal monsters, they were all extremely surprised by the result of their battle and the scene. What level of combat could lead to this situation was simply unimaginable!
The metal monsters were formidable enough, being able to fight human armies to this extent. Their strength was evident.
But why did this giant mosquito creature also possess such strength? Previously, when it was reported in the media, there was no mention of mosquitoes having such abilities. Moreover, the mosquitoes seen before were merely using physical attack methods. The fact that this giant mosquito creature could engage in combat with those metal monsters, and that there were probably some of the huge explosions on the ground caused by it, was indeed surprising!
So why could this giant mosquito creature, which was supposed to only have physical attack methods, also cause such damage?
A series of questions left the researchers at these monitoring stations extremely surprised. The discovery of this event completely changed their perception of the giant mosquito creature.
However, Jia Yan didn't care about the researchers' perception of him. If he knew that his every move was being monitored by these people, his only hope would probably be that they wouldn't actually launch any nuclear weapons towards his direction, as he might very well be affected!
But Jia Yan was unaware that his every move was being monitored, so he continued to retrieve his notebook bag according to his own pace.
On the rooftop of his home, Jia Yan didn't waste much time. After retrieving the notebook bag, he only glanced at its contents briefly.
After a few glances and finding nothing missing, he stuffed everything back into the bag!
Before long, the giant mosquito creature's body continued to ascend from the small building.
High in the sky, Jia Yan's body flew there, and at this moment, he finally saw those metal monsters. These monsters looked up at the giant mosquito creature flying overhead, but this time they did not rashly attack. This group of monsters seemed to understand that the flying creature above their heads was not an easy opponent to deal with. Perhaps they would have to wait for future opportunities to deal with it!
At this moment, with the satellite's focus completely on those metal monsters, they didn't notice Jia Yan's bizarre appearance; otherwise, the monitoring personnel would have been extremely alarmed!
The giant mosquito creature's body continued to fly to a kilometer high. At this point, Jia Yan wanted to fly slowly and take a rest.
In the air, Jia Yan constantly pondered the gains of this battle.
Fighting so many metal monsters had both good and bad aspects. The good part was that Jia Yan now had a stronger grasp of his own strength, and he had gained a lot of practical combat experience.
The bad part was that five of the gray-blue stones were consumed, and although these five stones had destroyed hundreds of metal monsters, it was mainly due to Jia Yan's use of terrain and tactics. He now understood how terrifying the metal monsters really were!
But no matter how terrifying they were, it was all in the past now. Jia Yan had already forced them to abandon their intention of marching towards this direction, which was quite an achievement!
"This battle lasted almost half an hour. My parents and younger sister shouldn't have gone too far."
Looking at the scenery below, Jia Yan realized that the side road he guided his parents and others on actually led to another city. After circling around, they could still return to the main national road. It just took a bit of a detour.
But taking a detour was still better than encountering this wave of metal monster armies.
Otherwise, there would definitely be casualties among his parents.
Finally achieving his goal, Jia Yan felt a slight joy in his heart. At this moment, his mood was quite good because being able to prevent his family from experiencing disaster was indeed a good thing.
"However, I must not relax my vigilance," Jia Yan thought to himself. "Since there are so many small metal monsters here, it's not impossible for other metal monsters to appear nearby. I must hurry and go after them!"
With these thoughts in mind, despite his weary body, Jia Yan's flying speed increased.
A group of people walked on the road, all moving at a rapid pace.
Some humans who had just arrived from behind looked nervous. They informed the fleeing crowd ahead that there was a large army of metal monsters behind them, engaged in battle with the giant mosquito monsters on the road. Regardless of the outcome of the battle, they were all at risk of being caught up and killed by the approaching metal monsters!
So they needed to pick up the pace!
"I'm Wu Rongbin, what about you?" A young man walking at the back of the group struck up a conversation with a girl of similar age.
The girl was supporting her father, whose legs were not fully healed. After this period of rushing, he was starting to feel a bit worn out. However, having his daughter by his side gave him some extra strength, even if limited.
So the three of them barely managed to keep up at the back of the group without falling behind.
Seeing the boy initiate the conversation, the girl, considering that they were all evacuees, replied, "I'm Jia Lin, nice to meet you."
"Well, hello. Are you from Tan City? My dad and I are from out of town. This situation isn't the first time for us. Don't worry, the movements of the metal monsters have a certain regularity. They won't chase after us survivors indefinitely," Wu Rongbin said with a smile typical of a young man.
In fact, he didn't have any other thoughts, he just saw that this family seemed to need help, so he approached them.
After chatting for a few moments, finally, under the encouraging gaze of his father on the side, he asked, "I see your belongings are quite heavy, let me carry one of your bags for you, the one without valuables."
"This..." The girl hesitated, but seeing the approving expressions of her parents, she finally handed over a backpack she was holding.
The young man lifted the backpack with a smile on his face.
Yesterday, after being saved by the giant mosquito, he and his father made a decision to help others as much as possible in the future, as a way of repaying the chance they were given to survive.
Jia Yan had saved them, and now the Wu family was helping Jia Yan's family.
Doing good deeds brings good karma, it's as simple as that...
