In the pitch-black night sky, a giant mosquito darted through the air with incredible speed!
Beside him, two metallic objects resembling metal pieces followed his movements, but while the giant mosquito's speed was already impressive, those two metallic objects trailing behind him moved even faster, almost unbelievably so!
They performed a series of evasive and directional maneuvers in the air!
Jia Yan's body shook slightly from the impact earlier, making it a bit challenging for him to endure.
Though these two metallic objects were only slightly larger than the one he had previously obtained, their attack power had doubled under such high-speed conditions. Jia Yan understood the principle that such high speeds meant even a slight increase in weight equated to a significant boost in force. While the previous metal piece had seemed somewhat lacking in power when attacking him at three times the speed of sound, the current ones were at least twice as heavy!
One of the metallic pieces had extremely sharp edges, while the other was exceptionally heavy. If they were to be dropped on the ground, observers would likely consider them to be ordinary metal pieces, but once airborne, they became formidable weapons!
Jia Yan's body swiftly flew through the air!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
The two metallic objects behind him pursued him with even faster speeds!
Escaping from this pursuit wasn't easy at all!
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!
Jia Yan was already moving at an extremely fast pace!
He had likely surpassed the speed of sound, possibly reaching a speed of eighteen hundred kilometers per hour, but compared to these two metallic objects, he seemed as slow as a snail!
Their speed reached three times the speed of sound!
If these metallic objects had been as agile during flight as they were now, Jia Yan wouldn't have been able to outmaneuver them. Thankfully, he managed to lose them by executing sharp turns. Otherwise, they would have easily caught up to him!
Chase, chase, chase!
Escape, escape, escape!
In the sky, the movements of the large and small entities were countless, dizzying even!
However, the small military unit below, upon witnessing the strange battle above, hastened their retreat!
They were frightened by the giant mosquito!
This artillery unit had never encountered such a thing before. Despite their intense attacks, the flying object remained unscathed!
Now, with the giant mosquito engaging in a thrilling aerial battle with two unknown entities, they naturally seized the opportunity to withdraw!
What else could they do? They couldn't handle the giant mosquito, and as for the research institute, the researchers had already left the area under the protection of the soldiers. As they departed, they watched the aerial battle above, muttering to themselves, seemingly eager to dissect the giant mosquito.
However, the formidable combat prowess of the giant mosquito was beyond their reach!
The aerial battle continued. At this moment, the gleam in Jia Yan's compound eyes had not faded!
He observed the two metallic objects chasing him.
Despite the fierce battle, Jia Yan continued to observe carefully!
He had noticed a characteristic of the metallic objects last time. It was time to verify it!
"It was around here last time!" Jia Yan's compound eyes lit up slightly as he flew.
Just when they were about fifteen hundred kilometers above the research institute, Jia Yan suddenly turned his head upwards and darted upwards!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! —
In an instant, the giant mosquito broke through the two-thousand-meter mark in the sky, covering the distance almost in the blink of an eye!
The two pursuing metallic objects, too, followed suit!
But as soon as they broke through the two-thousand-meter mark!
Both metallic objects suddenly paused, losing all their momentum, appearing completely powerless!
"A perfect opportunity!" Jia Yan's compound eyes gleamed brighter than ever!
He had observed during their previous encounter that once he broke through a certain distance, the pursuing metallic object behind him would lose most of its power, only to regain it upon returning to the airspace above the research institute.
So, Jia Yan had already deduced that whatever controlled these metallic objects attacking him had a distance limit!
However, luring the opponent out of its control range in one fell swoop was impossible; the opponent wouldn't fall for it easily!
So, Jia Yan employed a bit of deception, engaging in genuine combat with the two metallic objects earlier. The timing of this engagement had to be precise because the opponent wasn't foolish; if the engagement lasted too long, they would surely notice something!
Indeed, Jia Yan regarded this entity as intelligent. In their several chases, it had displayed remarkable intelligence, sometimes even seeing through Jia Yan's feints. So, Jia Yan had been constantly using his brain, entangling with the opponent. And at this moment, the entanglement had proven effective; Jia Yan had effectively paralyzed the opponent, drawing it to a distance of fifteen hundred meters!
With a sudden burst of speed, they broke through to two thousand meters. From fifteen hundred to two thousand meters, a mere five hundred meters apart. At full speed, both sides broke through this distance in less than a second. Caught off guard, the opponent naturally fell for it, chasing him to the two-thousand-meter mark!
Indeed, its control had a distance limitation!
At this moment, Jia Yan's compound eyes gleamed, and he immediately turned around, charging straight towards the two motionless metal objects!
His ultimate target tonight was right here and now!
The entity below seemed to realize it had been tricked, and a surge of anger welled up within it. Just then, Jia Yan experienced once again the same kind of 'sound' he had encountered before!
Wail, wail, wail, wail!!!!!
A series of shrill cries echoed directly in Jia Yan's mind!
The immense force seemed to be piercing his head directly, and the pain from the shrieks rendered Jia Yan momentarily immobile!
However, with previous related experiences, he quickly realized something was amiss!
"Indeed, your sound attack also has a distance limitation. The force I'm experiencing here is on a completely different level compared to what I felt last time!"
Jia Yan's combat tonight was extremely cautious. He tried to avoid getting within 100 meters of the ground of that research institute. Last time, he was attacked by the sound when he approached within 100 meters, leaving him almost incapacitated!
Now, at a distance of two thousand meters, although the opponent's sound attack caused him to pause for a moment, it was still far from producing the same result as last time!
Jia Yan's compound eyes gleamed even brighter!
His figure continued to chase rapidly downwards!
Aiming at one of the metal objects, he forcefully surged forward once again!
His speed increased further and further!
And his altitude was rapidly decreasing!
Just as he was about to approach the height where the entity could regain complete control over the metal objects!
In that instant, Jia Yan felt his forefoot seize onto something!
At this moment, he felt the thing he grabbed was incredibly powerful and was struggling to break free from his grasp!
Wail, wail, wail!!!!!
Jia Yan had no time to spare, he immediately spread his wings and began flapping them furiously!
With his body vibrating violently from the thing seized in his forefoot, he soared higher into the sky!
When he felt that he had ascended to about two thousand meters in height, the thing held in his forefoot finally stopped its eerie twisting, which immediately caught his attention!
Lowering his head to take a look, what else could it be in his forefoot if not the metal object?
"Ha ha, thank you so much! Today's adventure ends here, I'll come back tomorrow!"
There was a gleam of excitement in Jia Yan's compound eyes as he burst into laughter in his heart towards the ground below!
