The closer it got to the lava pool, the higher the temperature!
Yet above the lava pool, an object that was very out of place appeared!
This object, in Jia Yan's opinion, was both unexpected and not at all surprising to see here!
Because if the so-called Divine Object of the Wa Kingdom really existed in Mount Fuji.
Then it was no surprise that this object was here!
Conversely, if the Divine Object of the Wa Kingdom wasn't near Mount Fuji, then this object should not exist!
Thus seeing this object confirmed the records about the Divine Object of the Wa Kingdom in Li Qicheng's notebook was true indeed!
The Divine Object did exist, and it was right near Mount Fuji!
Jia Yan convinced himself and slowly lowered his body!
Approaching the lava pool immediately raised the temperature even higher!
However, he still lowered himself until he reached the side of this object.
The object had a hard exterior and was entirely comprised of metal.
Its exterior looked quite modern!
Because the object was made entirely of an unknown metal, giving it a strange glow on its surface.
So what the hell was it?
The appearance of this object.
It was identical to the pipes at the bottom of the mysterious machinery in the underground world of Huaxia!
Discovering it here means that the range of Mount Fuji really does have something like the Mysterious Machinery!
That must be the Wa Kingdom's Divine Object!
"The Divine Object?" Jia Yan's luminous compound eyes shone bright as he examined the object before him.
This pipe emerged from a rock wall, made a turn in the air, and directly plunged into the red-glowing lava pool!
It seemed as if it wasn't afraid of the high temperature at all.
"This thing is indeed quite sci-fi.
I wonder who made it…."
Jia Yan stared at the pipe then glanced at the rock wall from which the pipe protruded.
If not for this rock wall, he might be able to follow the direction of the pipe and locate the Divine Object of the Wa Kingdom to see if it was exactly the same as the mysterious machinery in the underground world of Huaxia!
But this would not be possible, he had no idea how far this pipe had traveled.
Even if Jia Yan had the digging ability of a pangolin, it would be difficult to trace the pipe all the way to the Divine Object.
Therefore, the only thing Left for Jia Yan to study was this metal pipe!
"The mysterious machinery, with countless large and small pipes going underground; seeing such a pipe here reveals that they are not just entering a little bit of the ground, who knows how deep they might go!"
Could they go all the way to the Earth's core?
Thinking of this possibility, Jia Yan shook his head, the idea seemed a bit exaggerated.
"Since the machinery is extending the pipes, there must be a reason.
Can I perhaps assume it is some kind of functional machine, extending its pipes underground to obtain something."
This analysis seemed quite accurate.
Jia Yan saw the exterior of the machinery when he was in the underground world.
Although the machinery didn't seem capable of attacking humans, it was clear that it had strong defensive power.
Furthermore, in addition to not attacking humans, it didn't move!
With so many pipes, there's only one possibility, that is this thing exists to obtain something from underground.
"And this pipe even penetrates into the lava pool, that means, whatever they want to get is very, very deep." Jia Yan analysed.
Then, the mysterious glow in Jia Yan's eyes became even brighter.
"Finding the whereabouts of the Divine Object along the pipe won't be easy, so I'll just attack this pipe directly!"
Jia Yan thought correctly, since he saw the Divine Object's pipe here, there was no reason not to investigate it further.
Even if he found nothing, it wouldn't matter.
After leaving the cave, he could continue looking for signs of the divine object!
At least it proved that the Divine Object does exist.
"Right, I'll try with my forefoot first." Jia Yan continued to fly in mid-air, in front of him was a section of the Divine Object's pipe exposed to the air.
This pipe had a length of over three meters exposed and a diameter of seventy to eighty centimeters.
Jia Yan extended his knife-shaped chitinous forefoot and lightly brushed against the outer layer of the pipe.
Squeaky…
The sharp tip of the knife-shaped chitin gently cut the front part of the pipe, causing a piercing noise. seaʀᴄh thё Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"Not a single mark." Seeing the tip of his knife-shaped chitin, Jia Yan immediately became solemn.
After several battles, Jia Yan had great faith in his knife-shaped chitinous forefoot!
Perhaps because it had fused with certain metal substances, the sharpness of this knife-shaped chitin was extraordinary!
For example, he broke through the exterior armor of a fighter plane and even pierced through a small armored vehicle from the Wa Kingdom!
These were the reasons why Jia Yan was confident in his knife-shaped chitin!
But now, this exoskeleton couldn't even leave a mark on the pipe!
Although this also had to do with Jia Yan not using his full strength, even a random jab from his knife-shaped chitin was extremely horrifying, but this pipe had no sign of any marks?!
"No wonder it's the metal that can directly penetrate into the lava…."
Jia Yan withdrew his knife-shaped chitin, and the mysterious light in his compound eyes grew even more intense!
He lifted his foreleg aggressively, his chitin taking on a blurry figure.
He then struck downward!
Clang!!
The sound echoed throughout the space, piercingly loud.
Jia Yan put all his strength into this attack.
A strike of this magnitude could easily pierce a human body, even severing bones!
"Hmm?"
Upon the impact of the right forefoot hitting the pipeline, Jia Yan felt an extreme backlash emanating from the metal pipe!
Jia Yan's suspended form was abruptly thrust backward.
It rebounded!
"Such a firm metal!" Jia Yan was immensely astonished!
"What exactly is this metal made of?
It doesn't appear to be the same as the material of that mysterious machinery.
But its hardness is still so high!"
Contrasting the substance of the mysterious machinery's main body, Jia Yan knew that this pipeline's metal was certainly inferior!
Because when observing the mysterious machinery, one could clearly perceive the distinct technological aura, but this metal pipe, if Jia Yan hadn't guessed that it was a pipeline separated from the so-called divine object, it could have been mistaken for an ordinary pipe from a human factory.
But this kind of pipe was incredibly hard!
"I don't believe it!" The luminous glaze in Jia Yan's compound eyes flickered more intensely!
His body downwards completely, he first tried the temperature of the pipe with one forefoot.
Despite being wholly immersed in the magma pool, the pipe hadn't entirely absorbed the heat of the magma onto itself.
Jia Yan could easily place his long legs on it!
It probably only about seventy to almost eighty degrees.
Such a temperature would certainly scald a human's skin, but Jia Yan had a thick layer of coagulate shielding his exoskeletal surface, and his exoskeleton itself was not afraid of high temperatures, this trivial temperature couldn't even scald the coagulate, let alone harm the integral components of Jia Yan!
So Jia Yan's form landed directly on the pipe, then gripped the surface of the pipe firmly with all five long legs!
The remaining right front foot was raised again!
This time, with all five long legs gripping the metal pipe firmly and a firm place to leverage against, the striking force of his forefoot was incomparably stronger than when he was flying in the sky!
The long legs went down!
Clang!!!
The sounds of vibrations rang out.
Jia Yan's forceful strike was not a simple matter.
When it hit the pipeline, the sound it produced was like an old bell ringing, echoing through the sky!
However, that was all there was to it!
Jia Yan's right front foot was trembling slightly from the recoil!
But what he couldn't believe was that his attack, which could effortlessly shatter the Wa Kingdom's Light Armor vehicle previously, seemed to have no effect on this pipeline!
It hadn't even left a single trace of damage!
"What?!"
The glow of astonishment flickered in Jia Yan's compound eyes, this time he was genuinely startled, as he had become familiar with the feeling of increasing strength over time.
Everything in the past proved that he was no longer a powerless mosquito, but a terrifying giant mosquito that had overcome adversities!
The humans who rules this earth, had all cast their attention on him, creating worldwide sensation!
But he never thought that he would encounter a Waterloo at this place!
He was blocked by an inconspicuous metal pipe!
"If the entire pipe is this hard, it would be a terrifying spectacle!"
Jia Yan took a careful look and found that his attack had left a faint indentation on the pipe.
However, the dent was so minimal that he wouldn't even notice it unless he looked closely!
"Since there are traces of damage, it should be possible to break through!"
Jia Yan was initially startled by the hardness of the pipeline, but then saw the slight dent on the metal surface, his compound eyes immediately lit up!
His fear was that he wouldn't be able to damage the metal at all.
But since he could puncture a small mark, then it was possible to completely pierce through!
Jia Yan continued to raise his forefoot, aimed at the indentation area, and began to attack continuously!
Clang!
Clang clang!!
Clang clang clang!!!
Over and over, tirelessly.
His blade-like exoskeleton hit the metal!
Repeatedly striking a hard object like this caused considerable damage to the sharp end of his blade-shaped exoskeleton!
After about ten strikes, Jia Yan realized that each subsequent attack had less impact on the metal pipe, after the final strike, it didn't even leave a white point!
"Oh no!
The blade-like exoskeleton has become blunt!"
Having noticed this, Jia Yan was concerned and stopped his attack.
He stood in place, examining his blade-shaped exoskeleton.
He waited for a moment.
"Huh…" Jia Yan was somewhat surprised to see a slight change in his blade-like exoskeleton!
Hard tissues, like coagulates, began to grow slowly from the sharp end of his blade-like exoskeleton!
This visible metamorphosis was astonishing.
After a while.
The blade-like exoskeleton had returned to its original form!
Jia Yan was even more shocked to discover that in his regenerated blade-like exoskeleton, apart from a large portion being made of the same material as the original exoskeleton, there was inexplicably…
A hint of brilliant blue glow!
This was not a fleeting, brilliant blue exoskeleton!
But a constantly present brilliant blue color.
Jia Yan's compound eyes became brighter!

Chapter 157 - 157 36 Pipe Explosion![Seeking Subscriptions]_1
Name:Reborn As An Interstellar Giant Mosquito Author:Step leap
+ - Turn on Reset
157: Chapter 36 Pipe Explosion![Seeking Subscriptions]_1 157: Chapter 36 Pipe Explosion![Seeking Subscriptions]_1 This azure color, it's always been present!
Could this mean that the consecutive external stimuli caused the azure substance in his right forelimb to become a regular part of him?
Remember, the azure substance on the exoskeleton was able to resist sniper rifle bullets during the previous coastal battle!
And now it's present in the front segment of his blade-like horns, this isn't a simple change!
Jia Yan's eyes brightened even more!
If his conjecture is correct, this azure substance is the effect of the deep blue crystal he obtained from the subterranean world of Huaxia on his body.
Although he wasn't the one who initiated the fusion process with this substance, after the successful fusion, it was this substance that enabled Jia Yan to resist the attack of a sniper rifle bullet!
The anticipation in Jia Yan's compound eyes was clear!
Watching this powerful azure substance emerge from his forelimb, he was instantly thrilled!
He had personally experienced the hardness of this substance.
Now that this hint of azure was at the tip of his right forelimb, the sharpness it brought was far from comparable to the previous blade horns!
Jia Yan raised his right forelimb!
The right forelimb that was radiating a faint azure light was particularly noticeable against the crimson magma.
Then, Jia Yan controlled his right forelimb.
And jabbed down fiercely!
This attack was explosive!
Jia Yan could feel a difference in the sharpness of his right forelimb, even the sound it made when cutting the air had changed!
Jia Yan jabbed down quickly with his forelimb, and the sharp tip of the limb was just like a bullet!
When it jabbed into the metal pipe, its color instantly changed!
The original light azure suddenly turned into a more conspicuous deep blue!
Because the target was extremely hard, more azure substance surged at the instant when the azure color touched the pipe.
It seems to have chosen to attack in the hardest and sharpest state!
Of course, all of this must be controlled by Jia Yan's own organs!
If that azure substance could actually control its own shape, it would make Jia Yan nervous instead.
Fortunately, Jia Yan could feel that it was an organ inside his body that was in control!
The deep blue front end of the blade horn directly collided with the metal pipe!
Bang!!!
The collision started with the deep blue color making contact with the outer wall of the pipe!
At the moment of contact, Jia Yan could directly sense an indescribable hardness!
The tip of the azure forelimb instantly became even more noticeable!
Then, the front end, in deep blue, seemed to reach a higher level of sharpness and hardness!
Squeak!!!
It pierced right in!
Though it looked quite difficult, it was still able to pierce in directly!
Splat!
Boom!!!
Just when Jia Yan punctured the metal pipe, the pipe, which had a tiny crevice, seemed to contain an extremely high pressure!
This high pressure exploded!
It made an extremely loud booming noise!
"What?!"
Jia Yan was shocked.
But before he could react, an irresistible force hit him frontally.
His body was blown away by the violently exploding gas!
Boom Boom Boom!!!
The high pressure inside the pipe exploded, shaking the entire magma deep cave with a terrifying shockwave!
"I messed up!
I was just thinking whether I could find something else, but I forgot that the pipe itself could also be dangerous."
Jia Yan's body was thrown into the air.
But luckily, he sensed that the explosive power of this vibration was not deadly powerful!
In fact, his outer layer of Coagulate tissue could easily block it.
The magma cave shook violently for a moment and then quieted down!
Only a few pieces of magma fell from certain places, then it was no longer shaken by the explosive shockwave.
"Hold on!"
After being catapulted about ten meters away by the wild force, Jia Yan tried his best to flutter his wings!
Hum hum hum!!!
His wings were fluttering frantically, he paused in mid-air, then proceeded against the shockwave!
Jia Yan's compound eyes darkly stared at the metal pipe up ahead!
This metal pipe, with a vent in it, was constantly jetting high pressure gas from inside.
This kind of jetting would not last long.
After the initial violent eruption, it was gradually showing signs of subsiding.
Jia Yan's advancing body sped up and approached the pipe that was jetting gas.
The high-pressure gas gradually subsided after the initial jetting, and it became a slow airstream.
The airstream was still jetting, but the force was very small!
"It seems that I need to be careful with similar things in the future.
Although the jetting this time was not very violent, if I am not careful in the future and I encounter some traps or something with a strong explosive power, I will be in trouble!" Jia Yan, with a somewhat embarrassed face, thought to himself.
At this moment, the metal pipe that Jia Yan had jabbed, the place where he punctured, still remained the same size.
Even after such a violent explosion, it did not make the hole bigger, which showed how exaggerated the material of this pipe was!
Jia Yan's compound eyes stared at the crevice!
But he found that the crevice was still too small to see the internal structure.
The mysterious light in his compound eyes flickered once again!
Again, he gripped the metal pipe with his five long legs!
Lifted up his right forelimb!
And jabbed down fiercely!
Splat!
This time, no explosion occurred because the pressure inside the pipe had been completely drained!
With the help of that bit of azure at the very front of his blade-like horn, Jia Yan's right forelimb managed to pierce the surface of the metal pipe yet again but only by a slight depth!
Don't underestimate this slight depth.
It should be known that Jia Yan previously was only able to leave a little indentation!
Now, the added touch of brilliant blue has caused such a profound impact, it's nothing short of staggering!
Jia Yan kept staring at his foreleg, then gave up using the right one!
Next came the lift of the left foreleg!
You don't come across many things this tough!
If he missed his chance now, who knew when he might get azure tips on his left foreleg!
Jia Yan's calculations were turning out to be spot on.
His left foreleg also needed to shine with this brilliant blue!
Clang clang!!
His left foreleg smashed down ruthlessly.
But, as expected, this attack only left a faint indentation.
If you didn't look closely, the metallic pipe wouldn't seem to have changed at all!
But Jia Yan didn't get the slightest bit disheartened!
The attack continued!
His left foreleg slammed down wildly!
Clang clang clang clang!
Clang clang clang!!
The sound of his left foreleg smashing down gradually changed!
Finally, at some point, this sound reached its limit!
Snap!
Jia Yan noticed that when he drove in his left foreleg, the sound changed — it got a bit different!
The counterforce didn't get fed back onto his foreleg!
It was as if it had penetrated in!
A thought filled Jia Yan's heart!
Then his gaze was drawn to the metallic pipe below where his leg had thrust in.
His left foreleg was jabbed into the metallic pipe above.
When Jia Yan looked over, sure enough, he found a bit of the tip of his left foreleg had penetrated into the metallic pipe!
He did it!
He actually did it!
Jia Yan pulled out his left foreleg, and saw that like the right foreleg, it too now featured the same blue texture with a hint of deep azure within it.
A smile finally caught the corners of his mouth.
Now that he has two super sharp forelegs, nothing else is a concern!
The speed could be doubled!
Jia Yan began working his right foreleg too!
Instantly, in this space, the two forelegs danced violently, relentlessly slamming down with rhythmic 'clangs' on the metallic pipe!
The sounds kept ringing out.
Jia Yan was incredibly fast, undisturbed within this space.
His only opponent was himself, competing against his own stamina and endurance!
"Well, it seems my energy is being depleted a bit too rapidly.
Ever since I entered the Wa Kingdom, I haven't refueled at all; I'm getting a bit peckish now!"
Jia Yan expressed his resignation.
To be honest, he was feeling a bit weak.
After a journey of thousands of miles to reach the Wa Kingdom, he hadn't ingested the fresh blood of any creature!
He'd already pushed the limits of his body's hunger endurance!
A mosquito can normally survive a few days without feeding, but that doesn't imply that Jia Yan was similar to an average mosquito!
His larger body required energy at a level, which would have drained countless ordinary mosquitoes!
So, the fact that Jia Yan could go a few days without eating was already quite an achievement.
Going beyond that was like enduring starvation.
By that point, his power would have decreased significantly!
However, that time had not yet come.
Jia Yan put those thoughts aside — feeding on blood was for later.
His swinging forelegs showed no signs of stopping!
Clang clang clang!
In stroke after stroke, both his forelegs!
Striking the metallic pipe repeatedly!
Jia Yan noticed that under his attack, a fairly large hollow had slowly formed in the metal pipe!
And the azure substance shimmering on his forelegs grew even more conspicuous!
This implied his blade-like keratin had undergone another kind of mutation and strengthening!
This was not like the previous mutations that resulted from consuming various fluids and substances.
This change was entirely self-directed!
Jia Yan's compound eyes brightened even more!
"Stab stab stab!"
A pair of forelegs, striking relentlessly!
Finally, when Jia Yan was able to see the inside through the hole in the metallic pipe, he ceased his assault.
In the metallic pipe, which Jia Yan had struck countless times, a massive hole formed about twenty centimeters across!
Beneath this hole, shards of metal were scattered everywhere.
This type of metal, humans probably couldn't even manufacture!
Yet this pipe made of such metal was now pierced by Jia Yan using a pair of forelegs, creating a large hole in it.
Jia Yan had no idea just how sharp and robust his blade-like keratin had become!
"What is this?…"
Jia Yan looked inside the pipe, but the interior held something of a disappointment for him.
It was nothing but an ordinary pipe.
However, on the edges of the pipe's wall, there seemed to be some kind of track.
This track was very smooth, and many new marks indicated it was still in use.
Click click click click…
Hum hum hum.
Just as Jia Yan was inspecting the interior of the pipe, he suddenly noticed something.
A rudimentary-looking machine was making a noise beneath the pipe, approaching from below, slowly edging towards the hole…

[Seeking Subscription]_1 158: Chapter 37: Discovering Deep Blue Liquid!
[Seeking Subscription]_1 (Three updates today, this is the first one, seeking subscriptions and monthly tickets for tomorrow!!)
It would be false to say that Jia Yan had not been observing the interior of the pipeline when he was attacking it earlier.
But he really hadn't noticed this machine appearing!
There was nothing to be seen in the previous pipeline at all.
But now, this machine, somehow, was slowly rising, looking rather clueless.
It was a pulley-fitted machine, with the pulley fixed to the edge of the inner wall of the pipe.
There were three sets of pulleys altogether, forming a triangular shape, allowing the machine to move up and down in the pipe track with the help of these three pulleys!
As for the machine itself, apart from a motor device making a faint sound, its main body was a ring-like structure.
At this moment, there was a basket with a diameter of about thirty centimeters fitted in the ring, and the machine was lifting the basket upward!
This!
Seeing this machine, Jia Yan was not too surprised until he saw the thing loaded on the machine, and then his compound eyes burst out with astonishment!
"This is…."
Jia Yan was shocked to his core.
Before Jia Yan could discern carefully, the machine was already close by.
After pondering for a moment, Jia Yan pulled back a bit!
Even though the machine didn't look dangerous, it's still better to be cautious in all matters!
Despite the continued ascension of the machine, it got closer!
Unexpectedly, it didn't seem smart at all.
When it reached the opening that Jia Yan had wrecked in the metal pipe, one of its wheels suddenly slid into the open air!
Crack!
A crisp sound echoed out!
The mechanical upward motion was halted.
When a wheel stepped onto the air void, the body got stuck at this part.
The wheel was spinning quickly, but it was unable to move!
Jia Yan watched the scene before him and then retreated a bit further.
He didn't know whether this machine had the ability to attack.
If it did, he had to be careful!
After all, it had something to do with that mysterious machinery!
However, this machine didn't seem to have any attack abilities, and judging by its appearance, it lacked any intellect, as it kept rolling its already skidding wheel at this spot!
Whizz…whizz…whizz…
The machine flashed red lights repeatedly from a part that looked like its eyes.
Then, without warning, the red light stopped!
The motor-like sound from the machine disappeared abruptly!
Perhaps it judged that something wrong had occurred and remained still!
Maybe it was waiting for maintenance here.
Normally this would be the best course of action, but there's a Big Mosquito next to it now!
Jia Yan's compound eyes brightened.
Then he gently flapped his wings and carefully moved closer towards this strange machine.
This machine was made of a metallic material that was different from the metal in the tunnel.
It didn't seem to be crafted exquisitely, and it was nowhere near as perfect as the machinery from the Underground World!
On his way near, Jia Yan did not pay much attention to the miraculous machine!
His gaze was mostly attracted to the small basket on this machine!
The items in the basket were so attractive to him!
Jia Yan felt a slight craving in his body.
He wanted to devour it!
"No, it's not something that can be easily devoured…"
Jia Yan felt a bit too desperate.
And what was the item that attracted him so much…?
The reveal came!
The swiftly approached machine held a basket-like structure at the center of its body.
The basket had a linking device that ensured whatever was inside wouldn't spill out, whether the machine was moving up along the metal pipe or going forward horizontally.
And the stuff loaded in the basket was the source of Jia Yan's attraction!
Whoosh! seaʀᴄh thё Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Whoosh!
The Big Mosquito, with its dark body, approached this machine.
His compound eyes looked at the basket.
In the basket…
There was something brightly colored!
It was a semi-liquid!
Like jelly, it kept jiggling in the basket.
What was even stranger was its color, which was deep blue!
A deep blue color emanated from the liquid, reflecting this vibrant color directly onto Jia Yan's compound eyes!
His front foot, shaped like a horn, extended carefully towards the basket!
Upon comparison, the deep blue color at the forefront of the knife-shaped keratin was almost identical to the deep blue liquid in this basket!
Looking at the object, the wild desire still surges through his heart!
However, Jia Yan, having had similar experiences, was able to suppress this devouring instinct of his!
"This object is also deep blue.
Could it be related to the Deep Blue Crystal I accidentally devoured last time?"
With his compound eyes, Jia Yan looked at this semi-solid liquid and speculated wildly in his mind.
"However, this deep blue color does not seem to be as potent as the Deep Blue Crystal.
When I first saw the Deep Blue Crystal, there was a strong sense of danger along with attraction."
"Now seeing this Deep Blue Liquid, there is no sense of danger at all, and the attraction is much less than what the Deep Blue Crystal had initially!
I wonder if it's because I've become stronger, or whether this semi-liquid isn't as good as the Deep Blue Crystal?"
Jia Yan pondered, resisting the urge to consume the semi-liquid.
It can't be a good thing to blindly follow instinctive desires every time, it's bound to end badly one day!
It is for this reason that Jia Yan did not follow his instinct this time.
The attractive feeling isn't very strong either, so it's worth taking some time to think it over!
The immobilized machine, stuck in the metal opening Jia Yan had created, showed no response at all.
It left Jia Yan standing there beside it, compound eyes remained focused on the Deep Blue Liquid in the small internal basket.
"This Deep Blue Liquid might be a different substance from the Deep Blue Crystal!
Can I make a bold guess?…."
"If this machine is some kind of transport device, could its task be to collect this Deep Blue Liquid from somewhere and transport it to the Mysterious Machinery, which then somehow makes the Deep Blue Crystal.."
This seemed to explain a lot!
"Could the entire Mysterious Machinery, including these pipes and transport tools, have been created exclusively for the production of the Deep Blue Crystal?"
"Could this deep blue semi-liquid be the raw material for Deep Blue Crystal?"
Jia Yan found it hard to believe.
If this were true, what use could the Deep Blue Crystal have, and who would have created the Mysterious Machinery and this absurdly lengthy pipeline?
Would there be any adverse effects from absorbing this Deep Blue Crystal into his body?
For a moment, Jia Yan had many thoughts.
Linking things together, Jia Yan had a rough idea of the purpose of the Mysterious Machinery.
What came next, though?
What use could the production of deep blue metal have?
Could it be related to those giant monsters?
The more he thought about these things, the more confused Jia Yan became.
Jia Yan forced himself to stop thinking too much about it!
He was naturally someone who enjoyed analyzing things, and it seemed he thought more about things after his rebirth!
While this isn't necessarily a bad thing, and in many cases considering before acting is a good thing.
But sometimes overthinking is not entirely a good thing.
"In that case, I'll just take out the deep blue liquid first!"
Jia Yan contemplated for a moment, then went ahead and gently twisted the small basket-like object that was hanging inside the machine with his front leg!
The basket frame made a crisp sound and then was removed with the basket containing the Deep Blue Liquid.
The machine, however, continued to lie in the metal channel.
Just as Jia Yan was about to remove the basket from himself, the eye-like light on the machine seemed to flash a burst of light!
Nevertheless, the burst extinguished quickly.
Jia Yan, who was close by, did not even notice this anomaly!
At the same time…
Workers were bustling about in an underground space not far away.
But they did not anticipate that the machine by their side, which the high-ups of the Wa Kingdom called a Divine Object, would flash a light at the same time as the transport machine in the pipeline!
Swish Swish Swish!
The burst of light flashed, and the Divine Object quivered slightly.
The people of the Wa Kingdom had been calling this mysterious machinery a Divine Object and had been extracting secrets from it for a long time!
However, they had never seen the Divine Object do anything other than stand still!
People in this long house could indeed be considered researchers at some top-tier institute in the Wa Kingdom!
But due to confidentiality, the institution was such a crucial secret in the Wa Kingdom that many of these researchers had a hard time going home often after starting work at the institute.
Only five people, however, were truly at the core of the institution!
In fact, they were key figures of the entire Wa Kingdom!
Each of these individuals made significant contributions to the Wa Kingdom, and even their words could determine the future research direction of the Wa Kingdom.
However, the five of them seemed a bit different today, standing together tensely, looking at the data screen on a machine.
The screen showed lines that were initially stable, but were now uneven, even showing a downward trend!
"What's happening?
The pressure in one of the pipelines of the Divine Object has dropped!
Has there been an accident?!"
An elderly man with white beard looked at the data on the screen in astonishment.
The five huddled together, looking at these simple lines and appeared to be very surprised!
"This won't do.
If the pressure continues to drop, the incident from twenty years ago will definitely happen again, we must prevent it!" The expression of another man became grave!
All five had experienced a similar incident twenty years ago.
Thinking of the situation at the time, the expressions on these five top researchers became fearful!

Please subscribe to the official version, otherwise I'll be forced to do an anti-piracy edition!)
Many at the top in Wa Kingdom considered this machine from the research lab as the divine object of their kingdom!
Indeed, this machine had helped Wa Kingdom on multiple occasions, so much so that it had altered the entire history of the kingdom in the two hundred-plus years recorded since its discovery!
Its uses are significant.
However, the five upper echelons in this research lab knew that aside from the massive benefits it could bring to Wa Kingdom, it was also a dangerously terrifying object.
Far from being a divine object, it was merely a monstrous terror!
"Twenty years ago, when we installed that conduit leading to the drop in internal air pressure!
That's when those two penal items appeared!"
"But now, we didn't damage the conduit, so why is the air pressure in this conduit still dropping?
Let's hope the penal items don't show up!"
The five of them nervously watched the data on the screen.
They had no idea that the cause for the drop in air pressure wasn't their fault, but occurring in a place not far from them!
This place connected to the summit of Mount Fuji and led to a gigantic lava cave.
A metal conduit, stretching out from the divine object, appeared here.
And right now, this metal conduit was damaged by some violent force!
The extent of its destruction, surprisingly, seemed even worse than the one found in the Long House research lab!
If the researchers saw what was happening, they'd definitely be shocked!
After all, they knew just how solid the so-called divine object's conduit was.
Even for those humans in the research lab, damaging its surface was an incredibly difficult task!
Destroying it required a great deal of effort!
Yet, the conduit here was still destroyed!
The culprit behind damaging the conduit was none other than the monster leading to heated debates across Wa Kingdom a few days ago – the Man-Killing Giant Mosquito!
The powerful monster used its forelegs and punctured the metal conduit over and over, causing violent damage!
Jia Yan, of course, had no idea that the damage he caused was detected by Wa Kingdom's research lab!
He only stood there, compound eyes undulating, as he removed the basket from the machinery.
He then looked at the deep blue solid object quietly lying in the basket.
This object was extremely attractive to Jia Yan!
Through Jia Yan's long mutation, his desires for regular items have significantly diminished!
Jia Yan reasoned that, even if he was presented with the same purple-red liquid medicine from the beginning, he probably wouldn't even bother giving it a glance!
It's not that Jia Yan had an inflated view of his own abilities.
It was simply that the purple-red liquid medicine had likely lost its efficacy on him.
But now, the semi-solid azure object still had a strong attraction for him.
This was clearly not an ordinary object!
Jia Yan, looking at the object before him, pondered whether or not he should devour it!
He owed everything to the mysterious machinery beneath Huaxia Country which might have been linked with all of his mutations!
That meant, the extraordinary air and ecosystem of the underground world might have been a creation of the mysterious machinery!
The plant was designed to extract air from beneath the earth rich in certain substances, which were then processed into black liquid.
The black liquid was then turned into purple-red liquid medicine!
All of these were related.
Jia Yan had undergone multiple mutations, beginning with the purple-red liquid medicine, followed by the black liquid, and then the mysterious liquid in the brains of creatures from the underground world!
Even in his last mutation, he combined a deep blue crystal.
Looking back on everything, his connection to the mysterious machinery in the underground world was evident!
And now, in the lands of Wa, Jia Yan discovered another object connected to the underground world!
This object seemed to be related to his mutations!
Semi-solid azure liquid!
Should he try using it this time?
Jia Yan pondered this.
His original intent was to find deep blue crystals from the divine object in Wa Kingdom. Searᴄh the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
However, he hadn't found the deep blue crystals yet, but a semi-solid azure substance appeared instead.
The degree of danger this substance posed was unknown.
Moreover, he relied on his biological 'desire' to judge whether this item was useful for him!
Jia Yan felt this was unreliable.
If his biological instinct was always this accurate, then his instinct was far too extraordinary!
Such dependence on instinct could endanger his life one day!
But if he didn't use it, he might waste another mutation opportunity!
Jia Yan thought for a long time.
Not until a strange noise echoed in his 'antennae ears', catching his attention!
He realized!
"What's that sound!?"
Swoosh swoosh…
Jia Yan looked around in surprise before finally realizing that the sound was coming from the metal conduit!
"What is it!"
Jia Yan was getting worried, wondering whether more machinery was coming!
But the sound didn't seem like it.
Jia Yan moved closer, directed his compound eye towards the open hole damaged by himself in the metal conduit, and looked in.
Just then!!
Swoosh!!
Just as Jia Yan began to relax a little, he detected a nearly invisible red beam of light shooting up from beneath the tunnel!
The beam moved so fast, he had no chance to dodge it!
Whoosh!
There was a crisp sound!
Jia Yan's head was thrown backward!
He had actually been hit squarely in the forehead by the red beam of light!
The immense power of the beam hurled his body backward!
The tremendous force of the attack made Jia Yan's body violently fall backward!
Boom, boom!!!
His body was flung into the air, hitting the top of the lava cave and making the entire cave shake and reverberate!
Boom, boom!!
Crack, crack!!
Countless fragments of rock rained down.
The turbulence of the cave was several times more intense than when the high-pressure tunnel exploded!
This showed just how terrifying the attack on Jia Yan was!
Under this attack, a hit from Jia Yan caused a small-scale collapse of the cave ceiling.
Large volcanic rocks fell to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust!
Jia Yan's body fell among the large stones and hit the ground.
It was unknown whether he was alive or dead!
A moment later, a body shining with red light slowly rose from the tunnel.
This was a construct with a primarily metallic structure.
However, inside the metal surface, there seemed to be a living creature.
Some muscles were interlinked with the metallic skeleton.
There was even a fiery red heart, exposed on the outside, that continuously throbbed!
Jia Yan was already at a terrifying monster level, but this monster looked more fierce, as if it was a demon from hell!
At this time, this monster arrived at the location via the inside of a metal pipe.
It pushed the transport machinery that had originally been at the bottom of the earth aside, and then continuously struggled within the tunnel.
It managed to squeeze its body out of the twenty-centimeter-wide tunnel entrance with ease!
That's right!
Although it looked hideous in shape, it was actually not a large monster!
It was only seventy to eighty centimeters long, smaller than Jia Yan, but no one dared to doubt this monster's combat power!
At this time, on its forehead that emitted a faint red light, there was a tube-like structure that resembled a gun muzzle.
This structure was entirely made of metal, and this kind of metal was extremely similar to the metal used in the mysterious machinery of the Underground World!
The structure shone with dazzling colors, giving off an indescribable futuristic beauty.
But the most noteworthy thing was not the tube itself, but the red light that flickered like a flame inside it!
The red light constantly pulsed, seeming more like a living creature than a mere light!
The earlier red beam that attacked Jia Yan was fired from this tube!
If the top scholars of the Wa Kingdom knew about this odd metallic construct, they would be absolutely horrified!
Because this metallic machine was the source of their so-called divine punishment!
Back then, the researchers of the Wa Kingdom wanted to cut open the Divine Object's tube to investigate its insides.
But after expending countless methods, they barely managed to cut open a small part of the pipe!
Two of these metal monsters then came out of the pipe!
Afterward, a day akin to the end of the world befell the research facility.
The massacre there lasted for at least three hours!
Even the defense forces nearby, dispatched by the Wa Kingdom, were unable to stop the metal monsters' slaughter!
Three hours later, the monsters' red lights finally dimmed, seemingly due to insufficient energy.
Afterward, the Wa Kingdom managed to make significant progress in scientific industry due to studying this mysterious metal monster.
This resulted in the Stars and Stripes Country achieving many related research achievements, thereby becoming an industrial powerhouse.
As for the massacre and the people who died, the Wa Kingdom hid the causes of their deaths along with the entire incident!
Even ordinary people didn't know that their nation's prosperity was actually related to the machinery beneath the surface!
And now, this bizarre metal machine appeared, climbing up from beneath the lava cave!
The red light at the top of its head kept flickering, seemingly checking whether there were other life forms present besides the black monster it had just killed!
As for the black monster?
It seemed to have determined that the creature struck by its red beam earlier was definitely dead.
Yes, even if another human witnessed what happened earlier, they would also definitely conclude that the black, mosquito-like monster was dead for sure!
But what about the reality?
Within the rolling smoke and dust, a black appendage seemed to be twitching slightly.
This attack was absolutely terrifying!
Even if it wasn't as powerful as a nuclear missile, it definitely wasn't as simple as an ordinary bomb.
Moreover, the concentrated attack from this tiny red beam was targeted at an area as small as half a centimeter!
How terrifying was the attack power of such violent energy concentrated on such a tiny spot?…

Jia Yan lay on the ground, knowing that he was still alive.
But he was genuinely terrified.
This was the fiercest attack he had encountered since his rebirth!
The area on his forehead that had been hit by the red light had already been pierced and shattered by the Coagulate.
What used to be an absolute defense for Jia Yan, the Coagulate, had become entirely ineffective, allowing the red light to directly strike the exoskeletal area on his forehead!
But!
Any creature's head is strongly defended, this area might be where Jia Yan's exoskeleton is the thickest on his body!
Could the exoskeleton alone not provide enough defense?
Well, if the exoskeleton alone isn't enough…
What about adding the Azure Material?!
Yes!
At the spot on Jia Yan's forehead where the red light had struck him, there was a small blue dot that was the same diameter as the incoming red light!
This small dot had a crystalline quality at this time!
Under the horrifying red light, the strange azure substance had naturally emerged in the exoskeleton in front of Jia Yan's forehead!
But compared to the azure color that had appeared before as a defense against bullets and when his front legs had unleashed the chitinous blade, the azure color on his forehead was even more dazzling now!
It was even becoming crystallized!!
A bit of crystalline debris fell from his forehead.
The power of the red light attack was just too strong, causing some of the azure substance in Jia Yan's forehead to fall off.
Fortunately, a swirl of blue light supplemented the missing parts on his forehead.
As a result of the attack, Jia Yan's body was blasted away by the wild power, and several of the coagulate formations on his body were damaged by the magma on the ceiling of the cave, causing some wounds on his body.
The most severe injury was probably to his neck.
He felt a slight pain there and, upon looking down, he saw a faint azure color there too!
The force of the red light had not penetrated his forehead, but it had twisted his entire skull and neck!
Without delay, his entire skull began to twist!
Not only could the coagulate not withstand it, even the original exoskeleton could not!
If his neck were to be severed, even if his forehead withstood the red light attack, he would still die!
Fortunately, the azure material contained within the exoskeleton came to his rescue again, protecting Jia Yan's neck.
And because of this absolutely formidable force, several parts even became crystallized!
Without the existence of the azure matter, Jia Yan would have undoubtedly died this time!
Crack!
A metallic long limb stepped on the ground.
The half-metal half-flesh Metal Monster finally landed on the ground from the metal pipe!
Its single foot was grounded firmly, its head with the black hole-like gun muzzle was directed outward.
The dust had not completely settled at this time, and Jia Yan's monstrous black body was still buried in the dust, completely invisible.
But this Metal Monster didn't focus its attention on this monster.
After all, in its simple wisdom, it was just a dead creature!
It was observing.
It was certain that the damage to the metal pipe could not have been caused by a single black monster.
Therefore, there must be other creatures or threats in this place!
The Metal Monster was fulfilling its mission.
However, it did not know that this 'threat' was caused by the black monster beneath its feet!
What it also didn't know was that the black monster it had shot directly with a burst of red light was still alive!
Finally, the dust behind the Metal Monster started to clear!
Out of the dust came the original, dark-colored Big Mosquito.
Now, a faint azure glow had appeared on its forehead!
Underneath its neck, too, there was a very bizarre azure color, similar to the cerulean blue of the sea and sky, but more pure and mysterious!
As the Metal Monster was crawling over Jia Yan on the ground…
The Big Mosquito's compound eyes suddenly emitted a horrifying gleam!
Front legs, moved!
Middle legs, moved!
Back legs, moved!
Boom, boom, boom, boom!!!
All six long legs burst forth with unprecedented power in this instant!
The air that was originally filled with just a bit of floating dust was once again filled with dust due to this sudden burst of power.
The sudden movement of the six legs lifted the Big Mosquito's body, which had been crawling on the ground, into the air in an instant!
Boom!
His body suddenly contained a tremendous amount of power, and his right foreleg, emitting a strange blue light, was thrust fiercely into the incoming metal machine!
Thud!!
A single thrust, pierced through!
Jia Yan's compound eyes glowed brightly!
He had just been playing dead!
This Metal Monster was obviously not something that could be defeated by sheer force, especially since it possessed such a peculiar red light weapon!
Its attack had sent his entire body flying.
Such power made Jia Yan feel lucky to be alive, thanks to the role played by the Azure Material!
So when he saw that the Metal Monster didn't look at him after leaping out of the metal pipe, Jia Yan decided!
Take a risk and pretend to be dead.
If he could deceive it, then bam—a sneak attack!
Luckily, it was worth the risk this time.
He had successfully deceived and attacked the Metal Monster!
"It's pierced through!
It seems my chitinous blade has greatly improved with the empowerment of the Azure Material!
I managed to pierce through its metal body despite its unknown level of defenses!"
Jia Yan was slightly excited in his heart!
Thud!
However, just as Jia Yan was getting excited, the Metal Monster, which he had stabbed, suddenly moved!
The body that Jia Yan had completely pierced through shook off his front leg.
He then turned around, aiming the muzzle of the gun, glowing with a cold and eerie gleam, toward Jia Yan's skull!
"What?!"
Jia Yan was horrified that his own stab had no effect.
However, at this moment, the instinct he had honed through several battles saved Jia Yan from the next red beam attack!
Just as the glowing red muzzle of the Metal Monster was aimed directly at him, Jia Yan, although terrified, instinctively reacted to dodge!
He used the momentum from his thrust to roll to his right side!
Whoosh!——
A fiery red beam streaked past, landing directly where he had been standing, diving into the magma above the cave!
Boom boom boom!
The top of the cave that was hit by the red beam shook as if an earthquake of magnitude seven or eight had occurred!
Then, large chunks of rocks began to descend!
The scene was like an apocalypse.
Jia Yan, who was distracted by this spectacle, found it unbelievable. Sёarᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
He was not shocked by the power of the red beam, but the fact that he, himself, could withstand such a powerful attack.
It was simply incredible!
In the back of Jia Yan's mind, he thought of the Metal Monster as a monster, but at the same time, his current body could also be considered as monstrous!
This battle, in a nutshell, was a fight between two monsters!
The Metal Monster possessed an extremely powerful red light weapon!
And Jia Yan, the Big Mosquito, had the insanely defensive Azure Material!
This was essentially a paradoxical showdown in reality!
So in this showdown, which was more powerful, the spear or the shield?
That was a question that had puzzled the people of Huaxia for centuries.
So what was the real answer?
The answer is revealed!
—— It's definitely the smart one that's more powerful!
"I'm not an idiot who would stand still and let them shoot me!"
Glow shined in Jia Yan's compound eyes!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!
Even when crawling on the ground, his speed was still extremely fast.
With him moving rapidly, his six long legs kicked up a cloud of smoke!
Stab!
Plunk!
Once again, he stabbed his long leg into the body of the Metal Monster!
Plunk plunk!!
The Metal Monster was still in action.
But its movements became somewhat distorted!
Its seemingly hard metallic defense, in the eyes of the present Jia Yan, was as soft as tofu, easily punctured by a simple stab!
Despite the Metal Monster's outer body being made of the same metallic material as the pipes, it only had a thin layer of it.
So compared to the pipes, its defense was considerably weaker!
Even then, that was already consider as extremely strong defense!
Jia Yan estimated that ordinary firearms wouldn't even be significantly damaging to it.
But this Metal Monster had met him, Jia Yan!
The paradoxical showdown, this phrase didn't seem quite right!
Because apart from Jia Yan having strong Azure Material to protect his body, his attack power was no joke either!
With his excellent combat intelligence, the outcome of this battle was already ordained from the beginning…
In other words, the adjudication was made, and Jia Yan was definitely on the winning side!
What you would call a close shave!
Plunk plunk!
Jia Yan evaded the red rays firing at him one after another, and the surrounding space in the cave kept rocking!
Boom boom boom!!
Countless lava, as big as a human body, fell from above!
But for the two monsters who had already entered a life-or-death battle, these giant rocks could not make a difference!
They continued to fight!
Jia Yan dodged a red beam, then, seizing the moment with his left forefoot!
He aimed directly for the red heart of the Metal Monster…
And stabbed at it!
Plunk!!!!!!
The movements of the Metal Monster suddenly stagnated!
Jia Yan harshly pulled his leg out of its body!
Plunk!!
The body of the Metal Monster shuddered.
Its eyes, glowing with red light, gazed down at the fleshy 'heart' located in their abdomen.
At this moment, the heart had a wound on it made by Jia Yan's leg.
A pale blue liquid flowed out of the wound.
Jia Yan guessed that this blue liquid must be the Metal Monster's blood!
"See if you dare to provoke me again."
The compound eyes of Jia Yan shone brightly, his confidence in his own strength grew stronger!
Even this Metal Monster, which was clearly a mysterious entity, he was able to defeat it!
What was there that he couldn't defeat?!
But just as Jia Yan was slightly self-satisfied with his own strength…
Squeak squeak squeak squeak.
Click click click!
From within the metal pipe, suddenly, there was sound again!
But this time, there were a tad bit more sounds.
