That was a building several meters high, seemingly only one floor with no windows or doors, appearing to be an inaccessible structure.
However, there must be a way in, such as through underground passages or hidden doors.
But at least to the naked eye, this building appeared extremely eerie!
And the sense of danger that Jia Yan had been feeling seemed to emanate from this building.
Due to Jia Yan's rapid descent and the low-altitude projection of the grayish-blue pebble, the strange creature or entity simply didn't have time to summon its metallic substance to defend against the incoming projectile!
Jia Yan only saw a piece of metal materialize from the sky and streak toward the grayish-blue pebble he had thrown!
However, despite this metallic substance flying at more than three times the speed of sound, it still lagged behind the grayish-blue pebble thrown by Jia Yan at a speed of two thousand kilometers per hour!
Moreover, the low-altitude grayish-blue pebble landed in an instant!
The creature or entity, whatever it was, clearly didn't think that what Jia Yan had thrown down would be ineffective, so even though it was clearly falling behind, it continued to pursue frantically!
Clearly, the speed of the grayish-blue pebble far exceeded that of the metallic substance!
Just as the entity's form was about to catch up to the grayish-blue pebble...
The pebble carried an unstoppable momentum and crashed into the building where Jia Yan believed the creature's lair to be located!
A dazzling light suddenly bloomed in the rainy night!
Boom!!!――
The night sky erupted as if into a massive fireworks display. The flames from this display instantly engulfed an area of several hundred meters in diameter!
The fiery red light cast the earth in a crimson hue as something resembling a mushroom cloud slowly rose in the night sky.
Although its power was undoubtedly several levels lower than that of a nuclear explosion in Japan, at this moment, this light was still a crucial turning point in the battle!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The light continued to flash, and some debris shot through the air along with it.
But at this moment, the creator of the explosion, Jia Yan, was rapidly ascending into the sky. He was still enduring the creature's sound attack at this very moment!
However, at this moment, he had already broken through the most dangerous hundred meters in an instant. After breaking through the hundred meters, he was slightly affected by the oscillating sound and crashed into the wall surrounding the research institute!
Boom! Boom!
The giant mosquito crashed through the entire wall, and amidst the billowing smoke and dust, the mosquito quickly flew back up into the sky, looking rather disheveled.
Its wings kept flapping as it swiftly soared through the air.
With its compound eyes scanning the scene below, the mosquito quickly shook off the influence of the sound. It soared to an altitude of about a thousand meters!
"This place seems to be the limit of where that sound can affect!"
Jia Yan sensed the influence of the sound on his body. Up to now, he still didn't know what it was, but he could make the right judgment. The range of influence of this sound would not exceed a thousand meters. Although it could still be heard beyond a thousand meters, at least for him, it was not a significant impact!
Jia Yan directly looked down from the altitude of a thousand meters.
The explosion scene below was still ongoing. After all, it hadn't been long since Jia Yan shot up to a thousand meters, so it was normal for the explosions to continue.
Moreover, he wasn't sure if there was something in the building that triggered explosions simultaneously, causing them to detonate together.
Amidst the flames, there rose a faint roar of anger, echoing from the ground.
Chunks of rubble scattered haphazardly throughout the area.
The height of the debris spray reached a staggering one thousand meters!
However, amidst the hauntingly ethereal gaze of Jia Yan's compound eyes, he paid no heed to the massive impact of the explosion. He knew that whatever entity or creature was attacking him might reveal its true form during this explosion. Jia Yan didn't believe that the attacker would be harmed by this assault; after all, even if he himself were at the center of the explosion, the worst that could happen would be severe injury, not death.
And something that he, Jia Yan, feared so much—a creature or entity—could not possibly perish so easily!
As expected, under Jia Yan's watchful compound eyes, amidst the flames, a dark metallic substance suddenly pierced towards him at supersonic speed!
"It's finally revealed!" Jia Yan looked at the metallic substance. This metallic substance was none other than the same rhomboid metal that had engaged him in battle last time!
He had acquired another piece last time, but this time, he hadn't seen any metal appear!
However, at this moment, the metal materialized!
Jia Yan watched the metal substance closely, finally confirming a matter that had been uncertain in his mind.
That is, the supply of this metallic substance was not infinite as he had speculated!
Last time, two pieces of metal pursued him, but now, only the one remaining from last time was present. Did this not indicate that this creature only had this one piece of metal as a means of survival? And now, under the pressure of his explosive attack, it had resorted to using this last resort!
However, it was also possible that this was a feigned maneuver on the creature's part, as it evidently possessed a certain level of intelligence.
Although the opposing metal substance was extremely fast, Jia Yan, with his experience facing two pieces of metal, could not possibly be harmed by just one!
So, he executed a sharp turn in mid-air, a movement that defied the laws of physics, followed by a complex aerial maneuver!
However, the metal substance trailing behind him was equally swift, and although it felt a bit awkward in flight, its basic speed was even faster than Jia Yan's. Yet, even amidst his rotation, it wasn't significantly slower than Jia Yan!
However, Jia Yan was a true flying creature, capable of performing unbelievable aerial maneuvers at this moment. Coupled with his increasingly astute brain, his movements were far from repetitive!
In mid-air, the giant mosquito engaged in a chase with the metal substance. However, his eyes remained fixed on the wreckage of the building below!
The smoke still lingered, but the shadow of the building slowly began to take shape.
By now, the rain had grown heavier.
The sound of dripping water echoed across the land.
Sometimes, the battlefield was incredibly noisy, but at other times, it was eerily quiet. At this moment, the battlefield was enveloped in a strange silence, a phenomenon that only those who had truly experienced similar situations would understand.
When people talked about war and battles, they often thought of passionate combat, a continuous baptism of blood and fire. However, few realized that the eerie quiet in such battles was also a unique sight.
Especially in the situation where Jia Yan, a giant mosquito, was battling other creatures, their fights did not seem any quieter than those of human armies, but in moments of silence, it was even more profound.
Listening to the wind whistling past his ears, Jia Yan's compound eyes did not glance back at the metal substance chasing him. Instead, they remained fixed on what lay below.
The place exuded a palpable sense of eeriness, becoming even more pronounced!
Finally, as the rain washed away the smoke, the partially collapsed building appeared before Jia Yan.
It had lost nearly half of its structure. Obviously, the building was constructed with sturdy materials, so even though half of it had collapsed, the majority remained standing, showing no signs of imminent collapse.
In an instant, Jia Yan saw a gigantic entity within the half-collapsed building, reflecting the faint glow of the night!
At that moment, Jia Yan felt his scalp tingle, a sense of incredulity surging from the depths of his being. Almost at the moment of this mental shock, he was about to be pursued by the metallic substance behind him!
