Jia Yan was resigned to his fate!
At this level of attack, for this large mosquito like him, it seemed there was nothing else to do but wait for death!
Yes, it was essentially an attack equivalent to the speed of light. In Jia Yan's view, it was an attack that was impossible to evade or resist.
The pale light of the 'UFO' grew stronger and stronger!
Just as the white light was about to pour out with unmatched intensity...
Whoosh! -
The area emitting the white light suddenly seemed to lose its source of energy, and the bright light flickered into an unstable light wave. Then, in a less than pleasant sound, it dimmed down!
Whoosh whoosh!
It seemed like the so-called 'UFO' was still trying to launch an attack, but there was no white light emanating from its open aperture!
"Hmm!?" At this moment, Jia Yan suddenly snapped out of his resigned state, his compound eyes flickering.
"No energy left? Or is there something else? Whatever the case, it's definitely very dangerous to stay here!"
Since the opponent didn't launch an attack, Jia Yan's excitement was greatly aroused. At this moment, he had no intention of launching any proactive attacks. After all, this 'UFO' was too mysterious. Without having gathered more information about it, it was impossible for him to launch any proactive attacks. If he had other means of attack, it would only be suicide!
Therefore, seeing that the opponent couldn't emit the pale white light anymore, Jia Yan immediately exerted all his strength with his wings!
He flapped them at an extreme speed!
At this moment, Jia Yan didn't care about anything else. His physical strength or anything else was a matter for after he survived!
After all, survival was the top priority!
Whoosh! -
The body of the giant mosquito soared through the night sky at an incredible speed!
He kept retreating, desperately pulling back!
As he passed by his temporary residence, if he hadn't turned back and seen the 'UFO' returning to the depths of the building with a missing corner in the faint glow of the night, apparently no longer launching attacks at him, he would have continued fleeing in a sorry state!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
The giant mosquito flew at a frantic speed, arranging everything as quickly as possible before taking flight!
At this moment, he didn't care about his own body anymore and launched into supersonic flight!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
A series of sounds echoed in the night, then swiftly disappeared into the darkness!
The speed of the giant mosquito reached an unprecedented limit!
Indeed, he was fleeing!
To put it nicely, it was a strategic retreat!
Feeling quite embarrassed!
He was almost scared by his own fleeing speed. At this moment, his burst speed might even exceed two thousand kilometers per hour. And that was with his wings injured!
The sound of the swift wind brushed past his ears, and the torrential rain poured down around him. The sound of raindrops in the sky and on the ground seemed to mock him, this mere giant mosquito, for his audacity.
Jia Yan indeed had that feeling. He understood. In front of this 'UFO,' he was nothing at all. If the opponent hadn't failed to emit the light earlier, he would have died!
His evolved powerful heart beat continuously, as if it was demonstrating his strength by pumping blood to every part of his body.
In fact, it was because Jia Yan was too scared!
"Wait! Something's not right!" In mid-air, Jia Yan's body hesitated slightly.
He thought of some details.
These details gradually gathered into fragments in his mind. These fragments made Jia Yan's flight speed slow down gradually!
"If this 'UFO' had the means to kill me from the beginning, why did it use those pieces of metal to attack me? Why not just come out and solve me with a beam of light? And when it appeared earlier, the kind of instinctual fear I felt from it was much less!"
As Jia Yan pondered over some details, these details seemed to point to an answer!
That was, this 'UFO' had only been bluffing before. Perhaps its true ace in the hole was the pale white light from before. But since that light didn't hit me, its means were directly reduced, or diminished a lot!
Otherwise, why would it give up the last chance to attack me? Jia Yan didn't think the opponent intended to spare him when it failed to emit that beam of light!
But now it was impossible for him to go back!
Jia Yan didn't believe that this thing that looked like a 'UFO' had no other tricks up its sleeve. If it had other means, going back would only be seeking death!
So even though Jia Yan realized that it probably couldn't emit that kind of light infinitely, and might even only be able to emit that one beam of light, he didn't have the courage to go back to deal with it!
So he continued to fly forward in a sorry state.
Fortunately, having sorted out these thoughts, he glanced back at the research institute in the rainy night, now indistinguishable in the darkness. His flight immediately became steady!
Facing the feeling of that ghastly white beam, a sensation of complete vulnerability, perhaps it was the first time he had experienced such a feeling since becoming stronger.
However, now that he was no longer as afraid, he pondered other questions.
"What is this thing, really? Could it truly be what humans call a mysterious flying object, a UFO? But the feeling I had just now, it doesn't seem quite right!"
The so-called UFOs have been recorded in the history of civilization on Earth for thousands of years!
These things appeared on Earth long ago, when human technology was far less advanced than it is now.
But even then, humans observed these mysterious objects in the sky, always hovering and leaving traces in the eyes of humanity.
There have been too many sightings of these objects for humans to ignore!
About a third of the world's countries are studying these scientifically undeniable unidentified flying objects, which indirectly indicates that almost all countries in the world have a positive attitude towards the existence of these objects!
And what Jia Yan saw, this mysterious thing, bore a striking resemblance to the most famous and iconic "flying saucer" in UFOs, or perhaps it was indeed that very saucer!
In fact, at this moment, discovering a flying saucer was quite possible, and not entirely unreasonable. But the appearance of this legendary object right before his eyes was indeed shocking for Jia Yan, who used to be an Earthling. It was only natural for him to be momentarily stunned by this seemingly mythical thing!
But now that he had seen it, no matter how unbelievable he found it, and regardless of whether he believed such things truly existed, since it was now in front of him, he had to acknowledge its existence and figure out a way to deal with it!
Indeed, Jia Yan's immediate thought was to deal with it!
At this moment, he had regained his usual mindset. After all, he wasn't someone who was easily frightened. Coming back to his senses from the brink of death, he naturally began to recall a series of details!
Flying away from the Qinghai Lake where the research institute was located, Jia Yan pondered while airborne.
One of his wings had been pierced by the ghastly white light earlier, but it only caused a hole about fifteen centimeters in diameter.
Fortunately, the hole was not too large, so Jia Yan could still fly relatively unaffected.
It seemed that this beam was not intended to deal with a creature like Jia Yan. After piercing through him, it shot off into space, leaving Jia Yan wondering where it would end up.
Under this attack, Jia Yan didn't feel too good. Previously, whenever he encountered an opponent, he would feel a surge of fighting spirit. But now, facing this UFO, he couldn't muster any resistance at all.
