Reborn As An Interstellar Giant Mosquito

Chapter 1127: Chapter 8 Hidden Achievements [Two Updates Completed]

”A Secondary Powerhouse? That’s all?”

Jia Yan and his Avatar made no move to pursue. After all, the enemy was not without the strength to fight; it was just that after suffering a minor setback from the toxin, the shock had driven him to flee. To continue the battle would only be feasible if Jia Yan waited for the strength lost by activating his Avatar to be restored; otherwise, he would still be at a disadvantage.

”Ha! Jia Yan, to have driven off a Secondary Powerhouse at the level of a High-level Expert is a miracle wherever you go. If my Master knew he had such a powerful disciple, he would surely be delighted.”

The Light Shadow Monster seemed to regard Jia Yan’s regret at not having utterly defeated a Secondary Powerhouse with resignation because it felt that Jia Yan had yet to realize the terrible significance of his accomplishment.

For a High-level Expert to defeat a Secondary Powerhouse was undeniably a mighty and unprecedented achievement.

Jia Yan appeared somewhat regretful, though: ”I had hoped to reach the Lord Level through this battle. I didn’t expect him to run off so quickly!”

The Light Shadow Monster was speechless. A High-tier Star-level being escaping with his life from a Secondary Powerhouse should be a cause for celebration, yet Jia Yan was still not satisfied?

Perhaps this was what set a truly Talented Strongman apart.

However, Jia Yan’s regret didn’t last long. After vigilantly monitoring the Battleship above for some time, only when Big Mosquito keenly sensed that the enemy had left did he turn his attention to the human Avatar.

Jia Yan moved the Avatar’s arm.

Then he moved its head.

Before long, he nodded, satisfied; to him, the existence of this Avatar was simply a perfect human body.

”It’s just that the Energy seems to have been depleted quite a bit after this battle, but that’s no issue. Once the Device is rebuilt, I can use Energy to recharge him, like a battery.”

Jia Yan up above was engrossed in studying the Avatar, while on the ground below, the surviving creatures looked up at the Giant Mosquito above with almost unbelieving minds.

This self-proclaimed ’Giant Mosquito clan’ had once again reshaped their understanding!

Previously, when Jia Yan was able to fight a Dignitary and even win by a fluke, they already found the strength of the Giant Mosquito incredible, to the point that even if a sacred level creature attacked, the Burning Star wouldn’t be too scared.

But they never imagined that this time the attacker would be a Secondary Powerhouse, and that Lord Jia Yan would choose not to surrender but to fight!

What’s more ferocious was that Lord Jia Yan had actually managed to drive away the Secondary Powerhouse, a being capable of wiping the entire Burning Star from Space?

This really surpassed their understanding of the Strong Ones. Even though Jia Yan still showed the manner of a High-level Expert, none dared to regard him as merely that anymore; they all felt that Jia Yan was more like a Secondary Powerhouse disguised as a High-level Expert!

Otherwise, a High-level Expert driving away a Secondary Powerhouse? Not even the cheap movies of the Northern Star Domain would depict such a scene!

Or rather, it must be a dream!

”Good heavens, I must still be dreaming to see Lord Jia Yan drive away a Secondary Powerhouse, this is too surreal, my dreams have muddled my mind!”

”That’s right, our Lord Jia Yan is formidable, but to the point of driving away a Secondary Powerhouse—the entire Northern Star Domain only has Semi-permanent Star Level Experts who could suppress him. It’s too exaggerated. We must be dreaming.”

One by one, the beings doubted the reality of Jia Yan’s strength, to the point where some experts from the Burning Star even used energy vibrations to confirm they weren’t asleep.

But deep down they knew they weren’t dreaming, for a Strong One wouldn’t have such absurd dreams.

And this very reality made them understand something—sometimes reality is more fantastical than a dream!

Jia Yan had actually managed, with the level of a high-level expert, to repel a secondary powerhouse. Although it seemed that he didn’t use the most honorable methods, his strength was still so great that ordinary beings could hardly imagine!

”Boss! Are you all right?”

As Jia Yan kept testing the different sensations of his avatar in the sky above, Kama’s communication request came through.

”I’m fine.” Jia Yan looked at his own expression, which didn’t seem fake, and revealed a slight smile.

Kama, after seeing a man behind Big Mosquito who looked similar to the Bella clan, smiling at her too, felt a bit surprised. She had always been busy with war affairs and had not yet seen the true face of Jia Yan’s much-thought-about avatar.

Now, seeing that it was such an ordinary-looking Bella clan man, she couldn’t help but be taken aback.

But she quickly recovered her composure and then asked somewhat oddly, ”Boss, I heard from my subordinates that the being you defeated earlier... might be a dignitary? I told them they’re really going too far. You shouldn’t be angry; how could it be so easy to encounter a dignitary? I’ve already scolded them. It must have been a high-level expert sent by the Country of Taia to test your strength. These subordinates don’t understand the division of strength among the strong ones; they surely can’t tell the difference between a high-order and a dignitary.”

Kama deliberately said this. In reality, she had heard that Jia Yan had defeated a secondary powerhouse, but that scenario was too fantastical for her to believe. She felt that even if Jia Yan was very strong, he could not possibly defeat a powerhouse of that level. After all, while secondary powerhouses were not much stronger than dignitaries, they were capable of handling two extremely powerful dignitaries at the same time. For Jia Yan to be able to defeat even the weakest dignitary would have been an incredibly astonishing feat, let alone overcoming a secondary powerhouse; that was simply impossible!

However, her conjecture was outright denied by Jia Yan with a laugh.

”Kama, they said I defeated a dignitary? They were indeed wrong.” Jia Yan didn’t wait for Kama, who seemed to be about to nod in agreement relievedly, to say anything, and he continued, ”What I repelled was not a dignitary, but a secondary powerhouse. This strong one probably misunderstood something about me and wanted to oppose me. But I’ve already driven him away. I doubt he will appear so easily again. Don’t worry.”

”Uh!” Kama hadn’t finished exhaling, and now she was stuck.

Her face turned red, and after some time, she managed to breathe normally again, her eyes widening. ”Really, a secondary powerhouse? Boss! Can you even defeat a secondary powerhouse? Wow, that’s awesome!”

She was as excited as a little kid, almost jumping up in excitement.

You see, the current war situation in the Country of Taia had reached a stalemate. Kama’s Overwhelming Tactics were strong, but it’s hard to cook without rice, and her more important role was still that of a main commander seated at the battle command post; thus, her personal command ability didn’t help much in the overall war.

And Jia Yan, who could potentially be of great help in the war, refused to participate, instead fiddling with some avatar creation. Kama didn’t know how many times she had heard complaints from some older soldiers from the Country of Taia, saying that Jia Yan, the strong one, couldn’t really affect the course of the war.

But if the news that Jia Yan could defeat a secondary powerhouse got out, not only would the Country of Taia be tremendously shaken, but even some restless powers around them would be alarmed. After all, that was a secondary powerhouse!

A secondary powerhouse in the Northern Star Domain almost had a status on par with semi-permanent star level experts. Although they didn’t have the earth-shattering power of semi-permanent star level experts, they also didn’t have as many restrictions when taking action. Three hundred years ago, there was even an incident where a secondary powerhouse was chased by a now-living semi-permanent star level expert for decades and still managed to escape from the Northern Star Domain, which shows how formidable the power of a secondary powerhouse can be!

And Jia Yan actually managed to repel a secondary powerhouse?!!

A secondary powerhouse, whose status is virtually the same as that of a semi-permanent star level?

If this news would get out, the Country of Taia might immediately have half of its military in turmoil, followed by another half of previously undecided star bodies switching sides, and the Giant Mosquito Fleet might quickly get out of a bind and even subjugate more than half of the Country of Taia!

”Kama, just treat the existence I defeated as a dignitary as they say. I don’t want to provoke secondary powerhouses or even semi-permanent star level experts for now.”

Just as Kama was daydreaming, even imagining that once this news got out, a large portion of the Country of Taia’s territory would return to her hands, Jia Yan suddenly brought her back to reality with a single sentence.

”Boss, you’re not willing? This...” Kama was surprised and then seemed to think of something, calmed down, and nodded, ”That’s right, our fleet is an outsider after all. We’ve caused too much commotion in the Country of Taia. I’ve heard that some powers are already considering striking against us. If your strength is known to be so formidable, the beings who take action against us might be of a higher level. It’s correct not to spread it. But didn’t you just drive away that strong one? Won’t he spread the news?”

”It won’t happen. What secondary power would broadcast their own defeat at the hands of a high-level expert all over? Besides, this strong one seems to covet something of mine, so he’ll be even less likely to speak out. His failure this time was merely a small mistake, and he probably still thinks he has a chance, so he won’t tell anyone,” Jia Yan shook his head.

After closing the communication with Kama, Jia Yan pondered the fight he had with the smokescreen expert and seemed to have a realization. He also understood that this strong one was after him because of the so-called ’Promotion Secret,’ which was a baseless rumor in the Desolate Star System that somehow hit the mark.

”Now I can’t say I don’t have the treasure for promotion, after all, the Light Shadow Monster ’Senior’ can be considered as such an existence. I didn’t expect the rumors that started spreading in this Desolate Star System to accidentally hit the nail on the head, but if this secondary power actually spreads this, then here in the Northern Star Domain, I might even attract the attention of real semi-permanent star existences. After all, no matter which strong one it is here, they all take the achievement of stellar level very seriously!”
