However, he was still unable to move at the moment, so resting was still more important at this time.
Therefore, the giant mosquito only had a pair of compound eyes, staring fixedly at the metallic iron piece lying not far away without any movement.
He continued to rest, recovering his strength!
Time passed slowly.
Finally, as another full moon was about to appear.
The giant mosquito's huge body stood up from the ground!
His body still felt a bit weak, but standing up was still something he could manage!
The dark body of the giant mosquito began to slowly approach the small iron piece.
In his eyes, the small iron piece, after the battle with him that night, had developed a small dent. This dent was about the size of a coin, but inside the dent, instead of a metallic texture, there was a dark color extremely similar to Jia Yan's body color!
If it was metal, then it was a very special kind!
However, the more Jia Yan looked at it now, the more he felt that this thing was not metal at all!
When he looked at this thing, he actually felt a bit like that night, a faint sense of threat, but this time, the feeling seemed much weaker!
The "iron piece" in front of him suddenly moved when Jia Yan stood up.
It trembled all over!
It seemed like it wanted to burst out with force in that instant, rushing away into the distance!
But before that, a long leg suddenly stomped down fiercely!
Snap!!
With that stomp, Jia Yan stepped on the metallic iron piece!
Jia Yan's compound eyes glinted coldly. Then his front leg continued to rub against the ground vigorously!
Squeak squeak squeak!!
Even though he hadn't fully recovered, at this moment, he still possessed extremely powerful strength. This strength was something a mere metal iron piece couldn't withstand!
And this thing that looked like a metal iron piece was definitely not a metal iron piece. It was something else entirely that Jia Yan didn't know about!
If it were a normal metal iron piece, during the battle that night when both sides clashed in the air and struck the iron piece several times, a normal iron piece would have been completely cut open by his sharp front legs!
But this "metal iron piece" showed no signs of damage. If Jia Yan hadn't used great force to cut off one corner directly, the battle that night might have lasted much longer!
Moreover, there was a feeling on its body that reminded Jia Yan of the sensation he felt at the research institute!
Of course, this feeling had become very faint, but it was precisely because of this that Jia Yan felt even more serious.
He didn't know what his feeling meant, nor did he know why his body was so weak now.
With this iron piece in his hand, and with no sign of it being able to achieve three times the speed of sound anymore, Jia Yan had no reason to let it escape again!
Regardless of what it was, the powerful one now was him. He could easily suppress this metal iron piece!
He continued to exert force with his feet, and Jia Yan felt that even if it were a real metal, it would have lost a layer of skin under his grinding!
After waiting for a long time, he finally moved his front leg away.
A deep pit had appeared on the ground, and in this pit, a dark-colored object lay there, giving off the feeling of an ordinary object.
But Jia Yan knew that this thing was not an ordinary object. It was something that could move on its own, fly into the sky, and even fly at three times the speed of sound!
Jia Yan looked at this thing with a deep gaze. He knew that this thing had lost its ability to move, otherwise, when he was in a coma, it could have either attacked him and killed him, or taken the opportunity to escape. But it didn't do either of these, so he could judge that this strange thing had obviously lost its ability to move!
Moving his front leg away, he looked at the thing.
After not long, Jia Yan used his front leg to pick it up again.
During this process, it didn't resist at all.
He let Jia Yan pick it up and then took it back to where the notebook was.
"What's next?"
Jia Yan crawled on the ground, looking at this object, not knowing what to do with it.
This metal-like thing obviously had secrets, but how to uncover them?
Jia Yan was at a loss.
Just as Jia Yan was looking at this metal-like object, a strange power suddenly appeared on its surface!
Jia Yan felt a stabbing pain in his eyes!
Then, he felt a faint voice echoing in his body.
This voice was neither loud nor soft, completely different from the sound that had occurred during the battle that night. But for Jia Yan at this moment, it was a terrifying thing!
Instantly, his head felt like it had been rubbed with salt again, exacerbating his already battered state!
The giant mosquito rolled miserably!
There was a loud noise from the bushes, and dust filled the air!
The gleam in Jia Yan's compound eyes continued to diminish, his spirit already somewhat listless, but now even more so.
From a distance of twenty meters away from the metal piece, Jia Yan quietly watched the scene over there.
The metal piece seemed as if it had done nothing, still lying where Jia Yan had abandoned it.
But the sense of power emanating from its surface had completely disappeared.
"What exactly is this..."
Jia Yan became wary and walked back again.
He was wary of whether the metal piece would continue to release any strange power.
But this time, he encountered nothing, and he walked back to the metal piece very smoothly.
When Jia Yan continued to flick the object with his front leg and found no reaction, he finally confirmed that the metal piece no longer had any power to harm him!
The reason was simple: he couldn't sense that faint sense of intimidation from the metal piece anymore!
This was a mysterious matter, but it was still understandable.
It was like a human encountering a tiger. The instinctual fear would still arise, like an innate sense of oppression.
However, the metal piece no longer had that feeling, and Jia Yan didn't think it had any research value anymore!
He simply picked up the metal piece with his front leg again and continued to play with it.
But at this moment, the metal piece seemed to lose something, and that lively feeling became faint.
However, at the same time, another unexpected feeling emerged!
It was the extreme hunger for devouring, a biological instinct that Jia Yan hadn't felt for a long time!
"This is!"
Jia Yan was shocked!
This instinctive hunger for devouring had not appeared since he devoured the azure substance. He thought it would never appear again, as fewer and fewer things attracted him. Even the purple-red liquid or black liquid placed in front of him might not arouse any interest.
But now, there was actually something more attractive to him than those gray-blue pebbles!
Moreover, this thing was something Jia Yan had never thought of—the metal piece from before. It had attacked him before, seeming extremely dangerous and terrifying. But now, after losing that immense sense of intimidation, it became incredibly desirable to Jia Yan!
"Wow, this devouring desire surpasses any previous ones. Could this thing
be my next opportunity?"
Jia Yan looked at the metal piece in front of him, barely managing to control his devouring desire completely.
Then the gleam in his compound eyes became even more intense. He raised his head, looking at the buildings of the research institute not far away, the gleam in his eyes faintly shining!
Although he had thought coming to this research institute before was a wrong decision, he still found something useful. It seemed there was a harvest after all!
But this thing seemed a bit dangerous and also a bit strange!
However, that was nothing. Jia Yan had long known that if he wanted to continue to grow stronger, the useful things he encountered would become more and more bizarre. This time, it was indeed overly bizarre—a metallic piece that could fly and attack people. But it was still within his tolerance!
It was just that mysterious thing in the research institute that continuously used that huge sound attack on Jia Yan!
Did that thing have any relationship with the metal piece?
If there was a relationship, would it also be one of his opportunities?
Thinking of this, Jia Yan's compound eyes trembled slightly!
But this tremor was not one of fear, but one of excitement!
What did this excitement represent, Jia Yan himself didn't know, but for something that could deal such heavy blows to him in such a bizarre way, he really wanted to study it. It was just that if there wasn't any reason, his reason would tell him not to take risks! But now there was a reason, so this matter was a done deal!
In fact, Jia Yan also wanted revenge!
