[Subscription Request]_1 151: Chapter 30 Heading to Mount Fuji!
[Subscription Request]_1 It makes perfect sense for these two assassins to ask such questions!
Jia Yan had told them earlier that he would arrive in ten hours, but ten hours later, it was a giant mosquito monster that rescued them!
Anyone in this situation would have doubts, wouldn't they?
Of course, these two assassins couldn't possibly genuinely suspect that Jia Yan was that big mosquito!
Even if such a thought crossed their minds, they would certainly dismiss it right away!
After all, this hypothesis is too fanciful, no normal human would think this way!
Jia Yan, with his compound eyes, gazed at the screen nonchalantly!
To be honest, he initially wanted to deal with these two for the last time, go their separate ways, and never cross paths again!
Since they wouldn't cross paths, it would be impossible to disclose his background to them!
Even if they had been through thick and thin together, how could Jia Yan disclose his identity to them based on this minor relationship?!
Let them continue to be confused!
Thinking of this, Jia Yan typed two lines of text and sent them.
"I must have something to do with that giant mosquito, otherwise why would it save you!
As for exactly what that connection is, you guys have to guess for yourselves!"
"Okay, we'll end the conversation here!
Each of us has no debts remaining, but if something comes up in the future, we can get in touch then!"
Jia Yan casually closed QQ and started laughing, appearing relaxed.
As for these two assassins, it counts as a clean break.
No matter how much he owed them in the past, this time he saved them again, so it could be considered neither a gain nor a loss!
Jia Yan knew that given his identity, it would be impossible for him to maintain a normal friendly relationship with humans, so now that he had repaid these two, it was a final break!
As for the future, we'll cross that bridge when we come to it!
Meanwhile, on the yacht in the ocean, the two assassins were taken aback when they saw the message.
Initially they just wanted to reassure the senior and incidentally ask about his relationship with the mosquito, but what they received seemed like a farewell address!
Moreover, as soon as the senior finished speaking, he went offline!
"Ah, it's all your fault for asking about the senior's relationship with the giant mosquito.
Was this something we should be asking?
We are not that close with him!"
The bearded man's face turned dark.
They even left the organization to maintain good relations with the senior, but now it seems that the mosquito senior does not want to continue to associate deeply with them.
However, he didn't completely shut them out, at least if something happens next time and they leave a message for him, they should still have a chance to get help!
"Yeah, yeah, it's all my fault," the bespectacled young man said with a bitter smile and shake of his head.
They were helpless towards this mysterious senior.
They always thought he was very powerful, but now they found out that he was somehow related to the terrifying giant mosquito that the whole world was talking about, which made him even more mysterious!
As for the exact relationship with the giant mosquito, whether he is its host or something, that's not something they can guess!
Anyway, they just escaped from the tiger's mouth, and due to their recovery and leaving the group, they're unlikely to accept any missions for the time being.
So even if they need to ask the senior for help again, it would be a long time from now, they don't need to think so much for now!
The two of them understood this and started to lazily watch TV.
However, just at this moment, the bespectacled young man's cell phone rang.
He frowned strangely, then pressed the answer key!
"Brother Xiao Yao, what's the deal with the internet data card that you asked me to get last time?
I just casually checked the balance and it's almost exhausted!"
A man's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Uh!" The bespectacled young man hesitated, then gave a bitter smile.
It seemed that the bug text senior really did bring the computer to Wa Kingdom for use.
He remembered initially charging three thousand yuan for internet fees on it.
"It's fine, I'll transfer fifty thousand to you, just recharge it onto that card, don't talk back, just do it promptly!
If he runs out of balance again, just tell me directly!" the bespectacled young man said without flinching.
You should know that the card is used by his lifesaver.
Fifty thousand yuan for his life is too cheap!
What's more, with this happening, won't he have another intersection with the senior?
Thinking of this, the bespectacled young man revealed a slight smile.
Jia Yan had no idea that the internet card he was using had consumed so much data.
He has never travelled abroad before.
Although he knew that using a data card abroad would incur terrifyingly high data charges, he wouldn't have thought it would be that exaggerated!
If he had known, he might have been a bit distressed.
He didn't constantly browse the web, he just looked up some information about Mount Fuji and the route, then shut the computer down!
On the tranquil island, in the forest, the giant mosquito listened to the faint 'swish swish' sound of the sea waves and once again gradually fell into deep slumber.
Jia Yan was replenishing his spirit.
After all, the previous day's battle really consumed a lot of spirit, plus flying a continuous four thousand kilometers left him extremely weary this time.
However, it was thanks to these experiences that Jia Yan could clearly locate himself now!
Not strong, but extremely strong!
He really has transformed from the image of a little mosquito into a giant mosquito with some self-defense capabilities.
This sleep was very comfortable.
Although slightly chilly, for Jia Yan who was protected by a thick coagulation, that little coldness was bearable!
Until the moon was at its peak, around 3 am!
There seemed to be a biological clock in the giant mosquito's brain, and it woke up on time!
"What a great sleep!"
A massive, dark figure stood up slowly among the bushes, causing some rustling noises in the grass and shrubs!
Rustle, rustle, rustle…
The ocean waves not far away were still crashing ceaselessly.
Jia Yan stood up slowly, moved his body around to shake off the sleepiness still clouding his brain and finally woke up a bit!
"I'll leave my computer here and get it when I come back." Jia Yan looked around and carefully hid his laptop, which was already packed into a backpack, deep into the bushes.
Afterward, Jia Yan looked up at the full moon in the sky.
The weather was good again, and Jia Yan's mood improved a bit as he looked at the moon!
It was the perfect time to get moving!
"According to the weather forecast I found online, it should be rainy in the inland areas of Wa Kingdom.
All I need to do is to be careful in places where the moon is visible during my flight.
In places where it rains, there will be fewer people, and the dim light will make it impossible for most people to notice me!"
After considering all this, Jia Yan spread his wings…
Flap flap flap flap…
His wings flapped gently.
Buzzzzzz…
His flapping became faster!
Buzzzzz!!!
A deep twilight hum!!!
The speed increased until it finally hit a critical point!
Slowly, the giant mosquito's six long legs lifted off the ground.
In the next moment, a grotesquely shaped enormous flying creature soared up from the bushes on the island!
It was like a giant dragon soaring into the sky, effortlessly rising!
A deep twilight hum!!!
Whoosh!
The noise lasted for just a few seconds, after which it immediately changed, and the sound became almost inaudible.
Jia Yan changed the angle of his flight muscles, turning the flapping of his wings into gliding, and then the sound of his flight became miniscule!
"Updraft!
Good, let's ride it!" In the air, Jia Yan's compound eyes lit up.
He sensed an ascending air current not far away, which was just in the direction he was heading for.
He skillfully flew into this updraft, and now all he needed to do was spread his wings and let the air current take him forward!
Underneath him was the vast sea.
To humans, this incredibly vast sea would seem massive, but to the current Jia Yan, it really didn't seem like much!
After continuous flights of over 4,000 kilometers in length, this terrifying giant mosquito had a clear understanding of his own flight ability and stamina.
As early as yesterday, he had already assessed his own flying ability – no ocean on Earth could stop him unless he encountered a powerful storm!
"The 4,000 kilometers not only strengthened my endurance, but also improved my flying skills fundamentally.
Now my cruising flight speed is about 250 to 280 kilometers per hour, which is already the top speed of some World War One fighter planes!"
Jia Yan was quite satisfied with his flight speed.
Although theoretically, even if he improved his flight skills further, without going through the next round of mutation, it would probably be impossible to break the 300 km/h endurance limit.
But even the current performance is extremely exaggerated!
As for his instant speed, without a reference object, Jia Yan couldn't estimate it.
Because his weight is much larger than that of birds of the same size, his instantaneous burst speed is even more impressive once he starts to accelerate!
Anyway, he definitely has an instantaneous speed of over 400 km/h, and it's possible that his diving speed could exceed 500 km/h!
If you want to describe how fast 500 km/h is, you can compare it to the speed of sound to get a rough idea!
The speed of sound in normal altitude air on Earth is 340 meters per second, or about 1,220 kilometers per hour.
And if Jia Yan's diving speed could reach an incredible 500 km/h, that would be close to half the speed of sound!
Given his present body weight and such speed!
If he swooped past a human instantly, the gust of wind he created would knock a person over!
If he hit a train, it might even knock the train off its tracks!
Even some bullets fired from old-fashioned firearms wouldn't be this fast!
Scary!
But that's just Jia Yan's theoretical maximum flight speed.
His normal cruising speed is still about 250 km/h.
Although it's also terrifying, it's not too outlandish.
This giant mosquito is currently maintaining this speed and heading toward the Mountain of God in Wa Kingdom – Mount Fuji.
He was headed to this so-called 'Mountain of God' to search for the 'divine object' within it, to see if there was any chance of further progress!
Once his flight speed increased, Jia Yan lowered his body, quickly reaching the airspace just five or six meters above the sea surface!
The wind caused by his wing flapping stirred up the seawater below, causing continuous 'whirlpool' sounds!
At this height, he doesn't have to worry about being detected by radar.
Even if some surveying fishing boats' radar did pick him up, they would probably mistake him for a seagull, or simply think there was an error in the radar software.

152: Chapter 31 Wa Kingdom like Facing a Great Enemy!
[Seeking Subscription]_1 152: Chapter 31 Wa Kingdom like Facing a Great Enemy!
[Seeking Subscription]_1 The sense of touch 'in the ears', only heard the howling of the mad wind!
The sound of the wind is sharp.
Jia Yan launched into the air, flying towards the north.
Compared to Huaxia, Wa Kingdom is relatively to the north, and Mount Fuji, where Jia Yan is heading, is of extremely high altitude.
For the cold-phobic mosquitoes, this is also a small challenge.
The body of the Giant Mosquito is flying in the air.
"Land is up ahead, the journey so far has been good, with no radar detection, as long as I reach the land, there are fewer radars scanning for fishing vessels, it should be even more difficult to be detected!"
With a flutter, Jia Yan finally entered the territory of the Island of Wa!
Since Jia Yan was taking a straight path, after flying off the small island where he was before, he flew almost a hundred kilometers along the coast of Wa Kingdom!
His speed was still very fast.
Whoosh!!
Leaves of some trees were rustled by Jia Yan's flying.
Jia Yan entered the land.
When he arrived in places where trees and houses might appear, Jia Yan couldn't fly that low anymore, so he slightly increased his flight altitude, flying about ten meters high, and dashing towards the front! seaʀᴄh thё ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"Now that I'm on land, the previous method of discrimination might make mistakes, I need to recognize the road and the address."
After having the previous experience of crossing the whole Huaxia, now faced with a similar situation, Jia Yan was an expert at it!
Around four o'clock in the morning, the whole earth was a peaceful scene.
The weather in Wa Kingdom is quite cold.
Although Jia Yan didn't fly high, he still felt the low temperature of about ten degrees.
This temperature didn't pose much harm to him now, it was just a bit uncomfortable.
The road ahead is long, always in flight!
Jia Yan discovered that while Wa Kingdom appears to be a country with a large population but scarce land on the surface, in reality, aside from the capital Tokyo, the population is not that large in other places.
It is said that eighty percent of Wa Kingdom's population is gathered in the small Tokyo Circle, which consists of a few counties centered around Tokyo!
In other cities and counties, especially places like Hokkaido, there are really no cars on the road for half an hour.
So Jia Yan changed a bit of his thinking on the way, that is, to try to bypass the towns where humans gather as far as possible!
Although this causes a decrease in speed and an increase in the journey, after analyzing it, Jia Yan found that his cruising speed has reached over 250 kilometers per hour, which is faster than before.
As long as he hurries a bit, he can still make it to Mount Fuji around six in the morning!
Then, the third relatively short long-distance flight of the Giant Mosquito began again!
However, no matter how careful, such a big thing, flying in such a low airspace, it's basically very difficult not to be discovered by humans!
"Huh, what is that?" A Wa Kingdom citizen, still awake at dawn, saw the Big Mosquito flying over ten meters in the air!
Whoosh!!!
Jia Yan's speed was incredibly fast.
By the time the person looked up carefully, he had already turned a corner and disappeared from sight!
An hour-speed of two hundred and fifty kilometers, neither too fast nor too slow!
If you're not careful, when it flies past your eyes, you won't even know something has flown by.
Whoosh!!
The person before didn't choose to continue investigating.
In fact, this is the real mentality of ordinary humans.
If it doesn't concern them, they won't bother.
The Wa Kingdom people have a deeply ingrained idea of not wanting to invite trouble.
They care even less about things that do not harm them!
Only those who have seen the image of Jia Yan and immediately judged that the creature they see is the mosquito monster from the TV the other day, would urgently want to contact the police!
Unfortunately, after several Wa Kingdom people saw the body of Jia Yan and Jia Yan had flown more than two hundred kilometers along the land, an early-rising farmer who had seen the image of Jia Yan saw the figure of the Big Mosquito above his vegetable field!
"No good!
It's that terrifying Giant Mosquito Monster!"
The vegetable farmer, upon seeing Jia Yan, was so scared that he fell in the vegetable field and used his hands and feet to crawl into a hiding place!
When he stuck his head out and looked, he saw the Giant Mosquito vanish instantly, leaving only a small black dot.
He immediately took out his cellphone from his pocket!
He dialed the emergency number!
Thus, the news of the 'Man-killing Giant Mosquito entering the interior of Wa Kingdom' spread instantly in the police department!
"Naito!
Come to the headquarters quickly!
What?
You just had a little sleep?
I don't care about that, come here right now!
The Giant Mosquito Monster has appeared!"
"Headquarters?
This is the XX branch, it's a message about that Giant Mosquito Monster, yes, yes, yes!
The latest report is that he has arrived in Aichi County!"
"Headquarters, we've lost his trace, yes, yes!
The application for helicopter use has been approved!"
"What?
The Defense Forces want to join the capture team?
But this….."
This is the busy information from the Wa Kingdom Police Department.
Because the Giant Mosquito Monster has been advancing into the interior of Wa Kingdom, and even flying in a straight line pattern, it looks like it is heading into the Tokyo Circle, which makes the Wa Kingdom extremely nervous!
If such a Giant Mosquito Monster enters the most bustling Tokyo Circle in Wa Kingdom, it would really be a major crisis.
Upon receiving the news from the Police Department, the excitement among the Defense Forces was even greater!
The coastal battle the day before yesterday was quite alright for the police department, mostly because of the inferior quality of their equipment and the fact that their daily training is not aimed at dealing with serious emergencies.
So the worst that could happen is that they were scolded by the public for being 'incapable'!
But their Wa Self-Defense Force, to put it bluntly, is the military of Wa Country!
A unit that spends every day training and preparing for emergencies in times of peace, but yet can't even provide any significant performance in the face of a real battle!
They sent in dozens of men, five armored vehicles, and a range of military equipment far superior to what the police had, but they came back empty-handed.
All of the masked bandits were taken out by this giant mosquito monster, not by them!
There were even outraged citizens calling for the timid Self-Defense Forces to 'disband' and even 'drop dead'!
Of course, their incompetence is not the main reason why the Self-Defense Forces hate the Giant Mosquito so much!
The main reason lies in the fact that during the battle, the Giant Mosquito directly attacked an armored vehicle belonging to the Self-Defense Forces!
It even killed a crew member inside the vehicle with its sharp, pointed forelegs!
This is the fundamental reason why the Self-Defense Forces view the Giant Mosquito Monster with such hostility!
"We must ask for the higher-ups' approval to let our troops move out!
Preferably, getting the 'Land Self-Defense Force Special Operations Group' into action!"
A high-ranking member of the army from the Self-Defense Forces urgently dispatched the order to his subordinates.
The so-called 'Land Self-Defense Force Special Operations Group' is referred to as the Special Operations Group!
You might be able to guess what kind of force this is just by hearing its acronym!
That's correct, this unit is the only special force within the Self-Defense Force of Wa Country.
This force is very mysterious and is the strongest among the tens of thousands of troops in the Self-Defense Force, without a doubt.
The higher-ups within the Self-defense Forces were not mobilizing this extraordinarily formidable force just out of a spirit of revenge!
It was because of the uniqueness of the Giant Mosquito that they had to use this 'monster' of a force to deal with him, right?
"At such a crucial time, Major Hongo has not returned, did he die in that mysterious factory in Huaxia or was he detained by Huaxia?
If he was here, there would be no disputes about the leadership of the Special Operations Group!
This is the unit that he trained personally!"
The high-ranking member of the Wa Self-Defense Forces who had made the call, hung up with a disappointed sigh.
He was doubting why Major Hongo, who had gone to Huaxia on what was supposed to be a touristic mission, had disappeared without a trace after reaching Huaxia.
His sudden disappearance truly shocked the whole leadership of Wa Country!
Major Hongo had lived for a long time, and thus, had been an essential part of the military leadership in Wa Country for many years, knowing many secrets.
In many ways, Wa Country could not operate without him.
However, such a powerful figure had just disappeared on the soil of Huaxia!
Wa Country even tried to put pressure on Huaxia through the embassy, but they received no response at all.
What people in Wa Country didn't know was that their treasured National Treasure Level Monster had been killed by this Giant Mosquito Monster they were currently anxious about, in the underworld beneath the Wa factory in Huaxia Country!
If they knew this, they would hate the Giant Mosquito so much that they might want to devour it with the combined might of their entire country!
As Jia Yan smoothly made his way into the heartland of Wa Country, the situation slowly fermented and evolved!
As for the great impact that Jia Yan, this Giant Mosquito, would have on Wa Country, only time will tell!
In the meantime, Jia Yan continued his flight!
He knew that he couldn't prevent himself from being sighted by humans along his route.
So, he used a clever trick, that misled the Wa state police and the Self-Defense Forces.
He pretended like he was trying to invade the Tokyo Circle and even the capital, Tokyo itself.
If a monster were to wreak havoc in the capital of a country, regardless of the eventual damage and whether this Giant Mosquito can be taken down ultimately, it would significantly damage Wa's reputation on an international level.
Therefore, most of the police force in Tokyo Circle was mobilized, to prevent Jia Yan, this elusive but powerful Giant Mosquito, from infringing on the country's core region.
Even the Self-Defense Forces were focused on the Tokyo Circle.
As a result, many people completely forgot about the area around Mount Fuji.
Then, after making a sudden change in direction,
Jia Yan suddenly disappeared!
Well, saying he disappeared, we mean that there were no longer any sightings reported to the police and the Self-Defense Forces.
Did the Giant Mosquito Monster sense a danger and hide?
The higher-ups of Wa Country looked at each other in confusion.
Did Jia Yan really go into hiding?
No!
He was still in flight!
It's just that he had entered the territory of Shizuoka Prefecture, not far from Mount Fuji!
So, he simply reduced his flying altitude to just one or two meters, so much so that he was practically skimming the ground.
He also slowed down his speed and was extremely cautious during his flight, carefully avoiding every building and every human he came across on the streets.
Don't think that a Giant Mosquito can't do something like this!
As a mosquito that can sense infrared heat and 'smell' the carbon dioxide in human breaths, avoiding humans before they have a chance to see him is very easy!
So, suddenly, Jia Yan's whereabouts disappeared from the radar of the police and the Self-Defense Forces.
"Hurry and search!
The monster must still be somewhere where it disappeared, perhaps resting or maybe killing someone!
Hurry, contact the police in that area, and head there right away!"
The Metropolitan Police Department urgently contacted the local police forces, and a dozen police cars rushed to the last known location of the Giant Mosquito.
But these men were bound to return empty-handed.
The Giant Mosquito Monster that they were so eager to apprehend was quietly flying not far from Mount Fuji…

153: Chapter 32: Breaking through 2000 meters high into the sky!
[Subscribe]_1 153: Chapter 32: Breaking through 2000 meters high into the sky!
[Subscribe]_1 Mount Fuji in Wa Kingdom, this is a mountain peak that's nearly mythic to its people!
The people of the Wa Kingdom call this peak the 'Holy Mountain' or 'Mountain of God'.
Clearly, it's a spiritual symbol for almost everyone in the Wa Kingdom!
This mountain is the highest peak on the Japanese island, with an altitude of nearly four thousand meters, and it has a lot of unique scenery.
Hence, it's a sacred place that attracts many tourists.
But because Mount Fuji is heavily developed, even surrounded by tourist attractions and facilities, Jia Yan once doubted whether his destination was on this mountain peak!
However, that mysterious Divine Object, if not on the peak of Mount Fuji, must be nearby.
After all, the notebook by Li Qicheng he found in the Underground World stated so!
Jia Yan decided to go to the peak of Mount Fuji first!
This is a peak with an altitude of nearly four thousand meters.
The mountain is covered with snow all year round, and the temperature drops even more when night approaches dawn.
The giant black Mosquito seeks a position where it's unlikely to encounter tourists and flies towards the sky over Mount Fuji!
Climbing a mountain of a few thousand meters is perhaps not easy for ordinary humans.
However, for Jia Yan, it's not too challenging!
He's just not sure if he can withstand the chilly weather at the summit after reaching such a high altitude!
Humans climbing this mountain are usually dressed in thick clothes.
All he, Jia Yan, could rely on was Coagulate, a constituent of his defense system
Whoosh!!!
The roaring wind swept by the sides.
During flight, Jia Yan gradually felt the temperature dropping!
His flying speed was undoubtedly quick!
So, in basically less than five minutes, Jia Yan felt that his elevation was just about his previously tested maximum altitude–1000 meters!
Jia Yan calmed his heart and mind a bit, then controlled his body to look around in search of any clues at this height.
An altitude of a thousand meters is not very high, but is enough to suppress the growth of trees.
Jia Yan conducted a quick search, then circled the entire area of Mount Fuji at an altitude of a thousand meters!
For humans, this might be a big project, maybe a series of arrangements would be necessary to achieve this!
But for Jia Yan, who can fly, it's a matter of mere ten to a dozen minutes.
About fifteen or sixteen minutes later, he stopped.
After a survey, he knew that he had no gains at this height!
"Upwards!" Jia Yan's Compound Eyes flashed eerily, looked at the higher Mount Fuji summit, and spread his wings!
He continued to ascend!
Twelve hundred meters.
Thirteen hundred meters.
Fifteen hundred meters.
Eighteen hundred meters.
Two thousand meters!
Jia Yan was starting to uncomfortably feel some chillness!
The oxygen level in the air was also dropping.
However, when compared to the impact of the temperature drop to Jia Yan, it was almost nothing!
"Clearly at an altitude of two thousand meters, my movements may be a little restricted and the temperature would have dropped to around minus five or six degrees."
Giant Mosquito looked at its own rudimentary 'breathing' organ, formed due to a mutation on its underside, from where clouds of white fumes were continually blowing.
These white vapors were formed by the heat of the body being rapidly absorbed by the freezing air outside!
Jia Yan's body was rapidly getting colder!
Mosquitoes are cold-blooded animals, meaning their body temperature changes with changes in the environment.
Compared to humans, it's much harder for cold-blooded animals to survive winter!
Arriving at this altitude where the temperature dips below zero, Jia Yan's body felt slightly stiff but the impact was not too severe!
"It seems like my body can engineer some heat.
Although not as much as mammals, it can do its best to retain as much heat as possible!"
Jia Yan examined his own physical construction.
The thick layer of Coagulate covering his body aside, it seemed like the exoskeleton underneath was also good at retaining heat.
Any other mosquitoes in these conditions would definitely be frozen and unable to move, but Jia Yan was still hopping about! Searᴄh the Novёlƒire.n(e)t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"So, let's continue the search at this altitude!"
The Giant Black Mosquito continued to spring itself into action, a good way to keep warm and search at the same time!
Movement produced both energy and heat, helping to gradually increase the body temperature!
Jia Yan resumed activity….
"Mr.
Takenuchi, do we really need to patrol Mount Fuji so early every day?
We basically pick-up trash.
We can do that later as well.
And it becomes even colder a little later, it's too much to bear!"
At the two-thousand meters altitude of Mount Fuji, two men, dressed in thick winter clothes, were slowly climbing the stairs!
While walking, they kept looking at their surroundings.
If they saw trash, they'd go pick it up and put it in the trash collection bag they were carrying!
Although the people of the Wa Kingdom are among the world's cleanest and most conscientious citizens, there are different kinds of people everywhere, and the Wa Kingdom is no different.
Some people do litter.
Usually, the two mountaineers return early with bags full of trash!
But of course, if it were Huaxia, more than one or two bags of trash would've been needed.
As usual, these two are doing the same thing today.
There are four sightseeing paths on Mount Fuji, and similar activities are being carried out on the other three routes.
Whoosh!!!
Just as the two men were mumbling something, one of them thought he heard something, quickly looked up!
He saw a giant black 'Shadow' just as he looked up, which immediately disappeared into the turning terrain!
"What's the matter?" Another person, noticing the man's peculiar gaze at the sky, asked in confusion.
"Oh, nothing!"
The man gave a light chuckle, but his eyes kept returning to the place where he spotted the black shadow.
Could it be an illusion?
But that can't be right.
I've been working at this post for seven or eight years, so it makes no sense to start having hallucinations now!
People in the Wa Kingdom are quite superstitious about ghosts and divine spirits.
The moment this man's chaotic thoughts turned to the black shadow, he suddenly felt an eerie vibe in the environment where he had been working for seven or eight years!
"Not far from us is the so-called Suicide Forest.
Who knows how many people commit suicide there every year.
It's even said that wicked spirits have been seen there.
Are they going to make an appearance for me today?!"
The man was instantly filled with dread, shaking his head and reassuring himself that it was just a hallucination.
He certainly didn't need to think too much about it!
But just as he crouched down to pick up another empty drink bottle…
Whoosh!
Whoosh!!!
Another eerie sound emerged, appearing right beside the two men.
This time, even the other man sensed it!
"What's that!"
The two men quickly turned their heads, but they saw nothing.
Suddenly, they both felt goosebumps on their backs.
Looking at each other, they saw sweat trickling down each other's faces!
"This is weird!
I've heard from my senior predecessor that there are Heroic Spirits on Mount Fuji.
Each of them was a warrior who did not fear swords or spears in their lifetimes.
But after they died, they were trapped in this cold place and couldn't ascend to the heavens!
So, they occasionally appear to humans to scare them and derive some morbid pleasure from it."
The two men somehow ended up on the topic of old ghostly legends!
In reality, the entity that scared the two men was neither a Heroic Spirit nor a ghost!
It was Jia Yan…
this Giant Mosquito!
As dawn approached, Jia Yan was getting anxious because by now, he could see some people climbing Mount Fuji while it was still dark, in hopes of witnessing the sunrise!
Should he put off exploring Mount Fuji for the moment, return to the foot of the mountain, and wait until midnight the next day to investigate?
Just as Jia Yan was entertaining this thought, he discovered something with his compound eyes!
Mosquitoes can detect heat!
It's just that because Jia Yan didn't really understand this ability, most of the time, he would automatically ignore it!
However, as he was lost in thought, he unintentionally directed his attention to this external ability!
He then noticed that there were several spots at the base of Mount Fuji, which was supposed to be icy cold, where the temperature was significantly different from the rest!
"What could those be?"
Jia Yan was shocked.
How could there be so many areas with high-temperature reactions in Mount Fuji with sub-zero temperatures!
For a moment, he didn't know if it was because his brain was frozen, but he couldn't think of a reason!
The reason is in fact very simple.
Mount Fuji is a volcano!
And it's an active volcano!
Its last eruption occurred in 1707, which is relatively recent.
An active volcano like this might look like it is covered with perpetual snow on the outside, but the inside is extremely hot, and it could erupt at any time!
The numerous areas with abnormal temperatures that Jia Yan saw were in fact typical volcanic caves.
Some of these caves led directly to the volcano's crater, and a few even connected to the magma, making them incredibly dangerous!
Jia Yan found that these caves with abnormal temperatures were mostly located higher than his current location.
To investigate, he needs to push himself to his limit – by going higher!
"So I used to only dare to fly up to one thousand meters, but today I need to break through two thousand meters in one breath and reach up to three thousand meters or even higher?"
Jia Yan could only muster a bitter smile.
However, those caves are indeed suspicious.
It's possible that a Divine Object could be in one of those caves!
Of course, even if the possibility doesn't seem plausible upon closer thought, one must never be too careful.
Always be prepared!
Having risked flying this far from the island, is there any logic in backing down when things get tough?!
No!
Therefore, Jia Yan thought he should definitely investigate!
The Giant Mosquito took another look at the humans nearby, noticing that the rather sparse humans weren't likely to see him, he then gently spread his wings…
And continued to fly upwards!
Two thousand one hundred meters.
Two thousand two hundred meters.
Two thousand three hundred meters!
Two thousand four hundred meters!
The Giant Mosquito's body began to stiffen, making it difficult to move!
He found it hard to control his six limbs, and even the muscle flaps of his continuously flapping wings were losing sensation due to the freezing cold!
The temperature here is below -12 or -13 degrees Celsius, and there are even pure white ice crystals in the surroundings!
"I am a little short of reaching my goal, keep going!"
Jia Yan was determined.
The goal was right in front of him.
How could he give up!
The Giant Mosquito continued to spread his wings and flew upward!
To be continued.

[Subscribe Please]_1 154: Chapter 33 Mysterious 'Long House' of Wa Kingdom!
[Subscribe Please]_1 The top city in the distant Wa State, and also the city with the highest population in the world —— Tokyo!
Tokyo has a population of 35.3 million, a whopping 10 million more than the world's second most populous city, Mexico City, with its 19.24 million people.
With its sizable population, Tokyo truly boasts the title of the world's largest city in all aspects, barring its small land area.
This city, bustling with life and activity, carries the hopes and dreams of countless people.
At the same time, it is also a place where many dreams meet a tragic end!
It can be described as a sprawling metropolis brimming with decadence and sin!
And within this city, those tasked with upholding law and justice are the various Tokyo Police departments and stations spread out across the city, their presence felt in all corners, maintaining the everyday order and life of its residents!
But today, something about the police seems distinctly off!
The city's various underworld organizations have received word to tone down their activities, as the police have been particularly sensitive these past few days.
Any act strong enough to jolt the police's nerves would absolutely not end well for them!
Not only are these crime organizations that have close ties with the police feeling the heat, but the ordinary citizens walking on the streets can also sense the tense expressions on the patrolling policemen's faces.
Unless one has inside information, it is hard to believe that all of this is happening because of a single mosquito mysteriously advancing toward the metropolis!
Even within the police, many feel this reaction is overblown.
This is such a large metropolitan circle, with so many police officers and defense forces.
Could they possibly be afraid of a mosquito!?
Even though that mosquito is suspiciously large, there's really no need for all this fuss, isn't it!?
The lower ranking policemen just cannot understand the apprehensions of their superiors!
The horror of that mosquito does not lie in its destructive force, but in the embarrassment it will bring to the Wa State!
Already embarrassed once, when numerous police and defense forces were overshadowed by a single Giant Mosquito during their operation to subdue bandits!
Not only that, but it also killed a defense force member and injured a police officer.
These are casualties directly caused by the Giant Mosquito.
If, despite having already suffered such embarrassment, the Giant Mosquito manages to breach this metropolis, the hub of the Wa State—Tokyo Circle, the blow to their national pride would be even greater!
It would be a huge downfall for the entire upper echelon of the Wa State.
Regardless of the extent of destruction caused by the Giant Mosquito, even a brief appearance would greatly tarnish their image both internationally and domestically!
If they can't even handle a single Giant Mosquito, how could these people manage an entire country!
Hence, Tokyo Circle is currently in a state of high alert.
However, these people are completely barking up the wrong tree.
The dreadful Giant Mosquito they are worried about isn't even heading their way, but rather wandering around their sacred mountain—Mount Fuji!
"Even the Special Forces are being deployed?
This mosquito monster sure has a big reputation. Sёarᴄh the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Even our country's most powerful special force, personally trained by General Haneda, has to step in!"
Several high-ranking police officers are patrol the Tokyo Circle, inspecting the situation from their cars.
Even though it is still early dawn, the streets of Tokyo are already filled with pedestrians.
There are a surprisingly large number of policemen among these people.
Regular commuters are giving these new faces strange looks, each one pondering what adverse event might have taken place!
"With the Special Forces deployed, that Giant Mosquito is as good as dead.
Besides having the highest individual abilities in our country, they are also the best equipped.
As long as the mosquito appears, just one Special Force alone can splat it dead!"
Amongst the higher-ups in the car, there is unanimous confidence in the 'Japan Ground Self-Defense Force Special Operations Group'.
What these high-ranking Wa State officials can't foresee is that the Giant Mosquito monster isn't advancing towards the heart of Tokyo Circle.
Instead, it is lingering on Mount Fuji, a location that everyone seems to have overlooked!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!
A dark shadow swiftly soars upwards!
Two thousand seven hundred meters!
The Giant Mosquito finally reaches the height of 2,700 meters on Mount Fuji!
The world is vast!
The view from here is entirely different from a measly 1,000-meter altitude!
Mount Fuji climbers generally reach this height at their maximum.
Beyond this, only professionals venture.
Jia Yan only feels the cold permeating his body, the chilly wind constantly sweeping through him.
Even though his body is fully surrounded by Coagulate, he can still feel the icy wind quite clearly.
"Damn it, my wings aren't as flexible as before!"
As his altitude continues to rise, the drop in temperature becomes more brutal.
Jia Yan can hardly think – it's too cold!
He is still 1,000 meters away from the peak of Mount Fuji.
"There are some caverns in this area, I'll go check them out.
If I could avoid forcing my way to the top, that'd be best!"
Through his infrared vision, Jia Yan can see a termal cave quite near to him, typical of volcanic mountains.
He quickly flies over!
In actuality, Jia Yan did not hold out much hope for these caverns.
These locations have been thoroughly trampled by visitors.
Not to mention discovering any secrets, even finding a sight not seen by others would be a tough task.
But he still flew over!
Soon, Jia Yan saw a small mountain cave with an entrance of about twenty centimeters.
These caves are tiny, but hot air is rising from them.
"I didn't expect the first one I'd see would be such a small opening, but it's not bad.
I can stand here to restore some body warmth, then I can ascend higher!"
With this thought, there was a glint in Jia Yan's compound eyes!
What is currently hindering his ascent is the surrounding low temperature, but now with these small caves emitting warm air, he can fly from one to another, stopping at these cave mouths to recover some body warmth, then continuing to ascend!
This was a good tactic.
He could also investigate these caves along the way!
The entrance of the cave where Jia Yan was positioned was too small for him to enter, so he could only see through, witnessing the irregular colors of the volcanic rocks inside.
After standing at this spot for about four or five minutes, his body temperature slightly recovered from the warm air, and reluctantly, he spread his wings!
Then continue to fly upwards.
The next cave was rather far.
Jia Yan noticed that the nearest cave was about two thousand nine hundred meters above sea level, almost three thousand meters away!
"It's okay, I can get there!" Jia Yan's compound eyes twinkled.
While his body still retained some warmth acquired from the cave, Jia Yan regained some flexibility.
However, this temperature quickly dissipated.
With his increasing altitude, the surrounding temperature continued to drop.
After just a few hundred meters, the temperature had already dropped to about minus twelve or thirteen degrees!
Cold!
It was extremely freezing!
Jia Yan felt as if he would merge into the icy surroundings, turning into a lump of ice cold frost.
His wings were frozen stiff from flight.
As such, his flight speed dropped significantly, down to only a few tens of kilometers per hour.
Fortunately, the cave hundreds of meters away seemed nearer and nearer!
Finally, just when Jia Yan felt he couldn't hold on any longer, the cave detected by his infrared exploration capability, came into view!
It was a mountain cave with a diameter of around seventy centimeters.
Just like before, heat was emanating from inside; in fact, this heat was much more intense, and the ice and snow around it were melted into a large area.
Jia Yan stood here, and immediately the warmth washed over him!
He enjoyed it for a while, and then after he recovered, he looked at the cave entrance, a glimmer of light flashing in his compound eyes…
With an entrance width of seventy centimeters, the inside of the cave was even larger.
Entering might be possible.
With this thought, Jia Yan gave up his search and decided to go into this cave first!
Big Mosquito retracted his wings, brought his long legs as close together as possible, and laboriously squeezed into this narrow cavern!
A cavern of only seventy centimeters width was indeed a challenge to Jia Yan's long legs!
He struggled into it!
Just then, not far from Mount Fuji, a place that looked like a 'residential house'!
This is a cluster of houses in the style of village residences, where vehicles can regularly be seen coming in and out.
However, as this place is quite remote from the outside world, even the nearby residents do not know that in these seemingly ordinary, ancient Wa Kingdom 'Long Houses', there is another world!
At present, within the Long House structures, there are people in white robes and protective suits walking around.
These people are all focused, with various instruments beside them, blinking on and off.
Among these people, some wear protective suits of different colors.
They walk by the Long House's seemingly ordinary windows, which are actually bulletproof and impervious to fungi, and then enter a heavily guarded room!
Once they enter this room, they can actually see a passageway leading underground!
People wearing different colored protective suits are coming in and out of this passageway.
There are also some burly men dressed in uniforms, with guns vaguely strapped at their waists, wandering around the Long House structures, looking very vigilant.
Their expressions and demeanor indicate that they are all experts, extremely sharp!
However, these robust men have no idea what lies within these houses.
They only know that it is a mysterious place, and that they are paid well for their services.
As experienced professionals in security, a good salary is enough to motivate them to do anything!
Not only them, but even those workers on the 'Long House' surface do not know what they are researching!
They are only responsible for the tasks handed up to them after professional decomposition at the lower level, such as the separation and analysis of some materials.
As a result, some of these people who have been working here for nearly five years, still have no idea what their 'seniors' are researching!
Within this mysterious building, the highest-level existence are those who can enter the house and then go underground!
These people are not numerous, totaling just over twenty, and most of them are assistants and basic helpers.
The real core group consists of only five people!
If these five were placed outside, they would definitely be able to send tremors through the entire research industry and institutions of the Wa Kingdom!
But now these five were huddled together, studying something underground.
If one were to take the elevator down from the mysterious cottage, after about two to three hundred meters, the elevator doors would open, revealing an empty space before everyone's eyes…
To be continued.
I've caught a cold and my fingers hurt.
I can't type.
Please bear with me as I slack off slightly.
I promise to update more in a few days!
I'm thick-skinned enough to ask for subscriptions.
If the subscription number goes up, maybe I'll suddenly find my motivation.
Currently, my subscription results too are too pitiful!

Chapter 155 - 155 34 Exploring the Lava Cave!

155: Chapter 34 Exploring the Lava Cave!
[Subscribe Please] _1 155: Chapter 34 Exploring the Lava Cave!
[Subscribe Please] _1 (There will be two updates today.)
This is not a particularly large space!
In the space, numerous delicate instruments are functioning.
On these instruments, there are various displays and some crystal-clear bubbles are continuously gushing in some glass tubes.
Centered amidst these instruments, is a towering machine!
At first glance, the machine appears as one seamless chunk of metal without any visible seams or screws, possessing a futuristic allure that many technologies in the Earth World are yet to achieve.
Strangely enough, this machine is almost identical to the one in the Huaxia Nation Factory in the Underground World!
A few men and women dressed in protective clothing are bustling about this machine.
They look at this machine which has countless tubes extending underground, their endpoints uncertain.
One of the tubes is cut open, and another tube is attached to its inside.
This tube directly connects to the instruments the researchers are operating and various data are fluctuating wildly!
It is unclear what these researchers are studying but they seem extremely busy!
Meanwhile, about seven or eight kilometers away on the peak of Mount Fuji.
Jia Yan crawls into a 3000-meter-high cave!
The temperature of the cave is relatively high.
As Jia Yan ventured deeper, he no longer felt intense cold.
His surface temperature gradually began to rise, and his agility gradually returned to its normal level.
Humans might have explored this place before, but Jia Yan still continued crawling forward.
The cave is made mostly of volcanic rock.
Black stones bearing clear signs of high-temperature burns are everywhere.
Jia Yan examines these rocks while crawling forward, the Compound Eyes flickering with an eerie glow!
The entrance of this cave is narrow but after crawling some distance inside, the space became a bit wider.
At least now Jia Yan could move without feeling encumbered – he could crawl comfortably!
"The temperature is getting increasingly high, and the terrain suggests that this space keeps descending.
This cave might lead to the underground."
In the cave that was leading him continuously downhill, the glint in Jia Yan's compound eyes was even brighter as he continued moving his six legs!
In this cave, initial signs of human presence became fewer as he went further in, but the temperature kept rising.
Jia Yan noticed that other caves started to connect to the four walls of this cave.
Clearly, it was no longer a single cave, but a collection of several caves converging into one.
Naturally, the typical end for most volcanic caves would be a dead-end after leading downhill for some distance.
After all, these caves were formed due to volcanic eruptions, their creation caused by the jetting of volcanic rocks, generating asymmetric crevices.
These volcanic caves were not like the caverns formed by continual water dripping from the outside world that could be quite lengthy; most volcanic caves would turn into a dead-ends after a short distance.
However, the cave Jia Yan was descending seemed to be different!
This cave kept leading forward, and the temperature rose progressively.
When Jia Yan noticed, the surrounding temperature felt not the least bit cold, but incredibly high! Sёarch* The novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
When he entered the cave, he only intended to do a little investigation, as something potentially promising to do when there was no other plan.
But he really hadn't expected that he would continue to descend and reach such a depth!
Deep underground, it was intensely hot.
Until Jia Yan reached a relatively spacious place, there was no path ahead!
On the ground was some substance that looked like it had melted and then coagulated.
This substance was definitely extraordinary!
It was the material hardened from magma!
"There was actually magma here previously!" Jia Yan found that through the infrared function of his Compound Eyes, the current temperature of these substances was quite high, probably over seventy or eighty degrees!
It's speculated that if he were to go further downward, volcanic magma would likely be just a short distance away.
Jia Yan found it terrifying instantly: volcanoes were not a joking matter.
If a volcanic eruption occurred now, there would be no place to run!
"There is no path ahead, should I just turn back like this?"
Jia Yan estimated that he had descended about four thousand meters, which means he was no longer above sea level but below it!
Without talking about sea level, based on the path he had travelled so far, his current depth even surpassed that of the Huaxia Nation Factory in the Underground World!
The Underground Factory was only a few meters deep, but he had descended a horrifying four thousand meters, four kilometers!
This is an extremely terrifying place.
The surrounding air temperature was extremely high, probably around forty degrees.
It's estimated that even if humans had explored this far before, it would have been very difficult for them to reach this place, because the temperature is too high.
They must wear a certain type of protective clothing or they would not be able to make it this far
Besides, Jia Yan can feel through his mutated 'respiratory organ' that the air here was not ordinary; although it still contained oxygen, it was definitely mixed with unknown types of toxic substances.
While he didn't feel much discomfort, it was hard to tell how humans would respond!
So, either humans had never explored this place, or if they did they probably would not come here often!
The entire flat Lava Land was approximately three hundred square meters.
There was a confusing mixture of rocks scattered on the ground, evidently fallen from the top of the cave!
Jia Yan considered for a while, then decided to tentatively step onto the molten rock not far away with one of his forelegs.
The high temperature of sixty or seventy degrees was incredibly hot!
With his long leg wrapped in Coagulate stepping onto the high-temperature ground, the sensations he received made Jia Yan slightly delighted!
Compared to insulating against cold, the Coagulate seemed even more effectively insulated against high temperatures!
Or, putting it another way, as opposed to fearing low temperatures, Jia Yan's body might have a surprising tolerance for high temperatures!
Jia Yan stepped on the ground, finding the temperature did not cause him any discomfort.
A pair of compound eyes lit up.
Then, Jia Yan kept moving forward, his feet touching the ground.
He was inspecting this flat lava ground!
There were many huge stones on the ground, some places were blind spots that Jia Yan needed to carefully observe.
Although the tiny places certainly couldn't hide the gigantic machinery underneath the Huaxia Nation Factory, who knew if this 'Divine Object' of Wa Kingdom was also that big?
If it was just a small thing, then it had to be scrutinized very carefully!
Jia Yan didn't hold much hope for this place, but since he had climbed down, he definitely had to try a bit, right?
There were many narrow places.
Jia Yan started to search for clues on the ground using the stones made from lava.
However, there was no harvest.
This place of over three hundred square meters wasn't big nor small.
Jia Yan spent twenty minutes inspecting every corner carefully.
Some places that he couldn't reach, he unfolded his wings and flew over to examine.
So much time had passed, and there was no gain whatsoever.
Jia Yan couldn't help feeling a bit disheartened!
"There's one last section left, which is also the most blind spot.
Unless they can fly, humans would have no way to get there!"
Jia Yan looked at a corner that was blocked by several huge pieces of lava, from below of which a pungent scent of sulfur was rising!
Truthfully, Jia Yan felt that that place looked as if it could lead directly to the magma, which seemed quite terrifying.
But this was the only place left, he couldn't just give up the inspection out of fear, right?
If there was magma, it wouldn't be erupting all of a sudden.
If it just happened to erupt within the short period of time when Jia Yan had gone down, Jia Yan would have to be super lucky, he could buy a lottery ticket and surely win the jackpot!
Jia Yan looked at that location, estimated an entry method, then spread his wings!
In comparison to his wingspan, that place wasn't easy to get into.
Hum, hum, hum!
Jia Yan flapped his wings.
The sound was very clear at the bottom of the cave!
Jia Yan flew up.
Both wings flapping, he cautiously avoided the lava.
After flying past one, two pieces of huge lava, the little corner at the bottom of the cavern finally fully appeared in front of Jia Yan!
"What is this?"
The strange glow in Jia Yan's compound eyes became even brighter!
Everything in front of him was within Jia Yan's expectations, but it was also not!
It was a small pool that was only about fifty centimeters wide.
In the pool, there was no water at all.
Instead, it was a glowing, molten liquid!
Magma!
This liquid was constantly churning, quickly turning into a black substance when it met air.
Yet, this substance would immediately turn back into red-hot magma after sinking into the magma.
It was a magma pool!
The entire magma pool had extremely high temperatures.
Flying in the air, Jia Yan could feel the heat filling the sky, making his entire body and wings hot.
The air here was probably around forty to fifty degrees.
If it went down any more, it would reach seventy to eighty degrees or even higher!
The temperature inside the magma was even more unthinkable.
This dark red magma must have at least a temperature of 600 degrees!
The churning parts might even reach over a thousand degrees, and they were extremely frightening!
Jia Yan dared not let himself descend too much.
Although the temperature in the air couldn't harm him, if he accidentally fell into the magma pool, even if he was highly self-confident and resistant to heat, he wouldn't believe that he could come out alive!
"The appearance of magma falls within my expectations and yet beyond them as well!
But the appearance of another thing surprised me.
However, the presence of this thing here probably isn't too strange.
Just that I never thought I would see it here."
"Maybe it should also be said, that it was both expected and unexpected!"
With this thought, Jia Yan shifted his gaze to a thing near the magma.
Who would have thought he would see such a thing here!
This could prove some things…
The glow in Jia Yan's compound eyes flickered.
