Reborn As An Interstellar Giant Mosquito

Chapter 1491: Chapter 53: I Will Be Back [Requesting Official Subscription]

The Kawai Defense Line is in full crisis, with nearly all surrounding civilization empires beginning an urgent retreat.

And at this moment, Jia Yan has disappeared.

He is protecting the Earth Fleet’s retreat.

Fortunately, the external forces have not truly adapted to the environment inside the Orion Arm. The pursuit lasted for several days, and then most of the strong ones and fleets from the external forces retreated to the territories they had just occupied under the immense pressure inside the Orion Arm.

There is a mysterious machinery that isolates vast stretches of the starry sky, creating a sensation akin to the outer star areas, allowing the external creatures stationed there to avoid the terrifying pressure of the Orion Arm.

Only then did the fleeing Kawai Defense Line base and fleet breathe a little easier.

”This battle wiped out almost half of the base and fleet, and the combat power loss was severe, with three-quarters of the dignitaries dead...”

The commanding star of the Kawai Defense Line, using extremely advanced jet engines, fled at the forefront, virtually without damage.

Yet none of the higher-ups inside the commanding star were happy.

Gazing at the barrage of reports, each higher-up felt an overwhelming pressure in their hearts.

”Lord Jia Yan has also gone missing. Do we still have a future?”

A humanoid creature of the great empire stared blankly at the screen in front of him, the casualty numbers causing his eyes to twitch.

”No, Lord Jia Yan is fine. I just received his communication; he’s currently protecting the Earth Fleet.”

The Second Prince of the Empire spoke to him with slight relief.

”The Earth Fleet again! Does Lord Jia Yan understand which is more important, the Kawai Defense Line or a mere small fleet? Yet he chooses to protect such a small fleet in this situation...” The humanoid higher-up was nearly roaring.

”Silence! What’s wrong with Lord Jia Yan protecting the Earth Fleet? What significant connection do we have with the Kawai Defense Line? The Lord’s actions do not require your commentary.” The Second Prince almost frowned, stopping the higher-up’s words.

”Well, that’s true. Lord Jia Yan doesn’t really need to be overly concerned with our Kawai Defense Line. Even if the defense line is destroyed, it would take at least several months or even years for the external forces to affect Earth. He indeed doesn’t need to risk himself now.”

The higher-up smiled wryly and then fell silent.

The Second Prince glanced at him and then said nothing.

In reality, he also wasn’t entirely pleased with Jia Yan’s actions. Still, as he rightfully pointed out, Jia Yan had no obligation to concern himself with the Kawai Defense Line. Moreover, even if he appeared during the massive retreat operation, what more could be achieved? Perhaps saving a few more fleets or bases, slightly improving the battle loss ratio, but it wouldn’t change the large-scale collapse of the defense line.

”Forget it.” The Second Prince smiled wryly.

The entire defense line retreated by three light-years, and under the appointment of His Royal Highness, the Fifth Prince, they reorganized and established a new defense line.

But everyone felt sheer despair; everyone knew that without the natural protection of a barrier, the fall of the Orion Arm was just a matter of time.

Amidst being criticized, Jia Yan was presently within the Earth Fleet due to the absence of pursuing enemies from the rear.

”Uncle, I knew all along it was you helping us.”

Jia Qi smiled upon seeing Jia Yan, though her smile was no longer as innocent as before.

”Now you understand the horrors of war, right?” Jia Yan kept a stern face.

”Yes, I’ll work hard on my cultivation when I return, Uncle. I won’t be disobedient in the future, so please don’t be mad at Qiqi.” Jia Qi knew Jia Yan couldn’t resist her when she acted spoiled.

”Ahem, already a big kid and still acting spoiled with your uncle, really...” Jia Yan finally couldn’t keep his stern face: ”Once you return, don’t leave Earth unless you’ve reached Sky Level. Understand?”

”Understood,” Jia Qi replied loudly, knowing her uncle was no longer upset with her.

”But Uncle, now that the Kawai Defense Line is broken, will I still be able to cultivate properly on Earth? I’m afraid...” Jia Qi hesitated for a moment before expressing her concern to Jia Yan.

”Little devil, you’ve really grown up if you’re worrying about such things now.”

Jia Yan smiled slightly and patted her little head.

Under the gentle touch of Jia Yan’s large hand, Jia Qi seemed to return to her childhood when her uncle would play with her, feeling both safe and entertained.

”Don’t be afraid, Uncle is here. Those biochemical starfield forces won’t cause a stir!”

Though Jia Yan’s words lacked grand rhetoric, they carried an undeniable confidence. Upon hearing them, not only did Jia Qi’s eyes brighten, but the distant Great Empire’s Fifth Prince also felt a shock in his heart!

Could Mister Jia Yan possibly have a solution?

If anyone could turn the tide within the Orion Arm, any creature would now say, it could only be Jia Yan.

Even faced with the situation where external creatures seemingly stronger than Jia Yan had arrived, no one believed Jia Yan could have a solution, yet the only one who might was still Jia Yan.

Grasping at straws, if you don’t believe in Jia Yan, who else can you believe?

”Mister Jia Yan, I wasn’t sure if you...” The Fifth Prince was about to speak when he was interrupted by a sound from Jia Yan turning his head.

”Your Royal Highness, the Fifth Prince, you have been away from the Great Empire for a long time, and you must miss home, right? Go back now and bring me a message, guard the defense line well, and then leave everything to me...”

”Yes.” The Fifth Prince understood that Jia Yan was issuing an order to leave, and he nodded helplessly in agreement.

The Earth Fleet, said to be in the thousands, actually had only about a hundred or so that truly belonged to the Earth people.

”Alright, my surrounding neighbors of Earth Civilization, this time everyone has worked hard. You can all return now, but the defense line now needs your help. If possible, please dispatch a few fleets to support the front line when you return. Jia Yan thanks everyone here.”

Jia Yan dismissed the non-Earth Fleet members, and then the massive fleet in the starry sky suddenly became sparse, turning into a small fleet of only about one hundred.

”Alright, let’s return to Earth now.” Jia Yan waved his hand, giving the order on the flagship.

All the Earth people on the Earth Fleet were deeply worried, having personally witnessed the great battle at the Kawai Defense Line and understood the reality of war, they were concerned about the future of Earth Civilization.

Jia Yan, however, didn’t have so many thoughts. After arranging everything, he went to his cabin on the flagship.

”Alright, since things have come to this, whether the true body comes or not, it’s inevitable, but it’s a pity about the cultivation resources in the Genius Battlefield.”

With a mental shift, Jia Yan returned to his true body.

”Xi Bala, is that ejection device ready? I’ve arrived at the Ting Tian Pavilion.”

An arc of dark light swiftly slashed down from the sky.

The Ting Tian Pavilion was no longer the same as before.

In this entire Dark Realm, at a place located on its edge which was not supposed to be considered a good location, it was bustling with noise and activity, filled with battleships, cargo ships, and many individual strong ones coming and going.

Many of these were forces or strong ones who had pledged allegiance, while others came to do business. After all, with the reputation of the Ting Tian Pavilion, even external commercial freighters were almost left unchallenged all over the Dark Realm as long as they had its protection.

Jia Yan donned a Battle Armor, but he secretly altered its appearance to look like a giant version of a Giant Mosquito.

No one recognized him, so he was able to quickly reach the Hearing Sky Star.

”Stop, how dare you barge into my Hearing Sky Star, simply looking for... uh, Lord! Lord, you’ve returned.”

A Secondary Level executive of the Ting Tian Pavilion floated up to the sky, angrily shouting directly at Jia Yan who was advancing towards the Hearing Sky Star but suddenly sensed the ’Mo Ke’ identity information emanating from Jia Yan, and hurriedly nodded and bowed.

Although he didn’t know why Jia Yan changed his appearance, the identity information belonging to Jia Yan was almost impossible to fake, so this Secondary Level executive immediately understood that the figure before him was indeed ’Mo Ke’.

”Hmm, I’m back, take me to where Xi Bala is.”

The transformed metallic Giant Mosquito of Jia Yan spoke calmly to this Secondary Level existence.

”Okay.”

The executive originally wanted to report on their recent achievements, especially the increasingly vast commercial network of the Ting Tian Pavilion, but seeing Jia Yan seemed uninterested, he quickly refrained from speaking further.

The Ting Tian Pavilion had already transformed completely. The entire not-so-large celestial body was almost entirely filled with commercial complexes, with some shops even comparable to entire cities.

Jia Yan looked at this advanced planet, which was nearly devoid of any space to land on, and truly felt emotional, having let go and managed, his subordinates indeed lived up to expectations, turning what was once a desolate star into such a state, no wonder Jia Yan recently felt almost no shortage of resources, they had made significant contributions.

However, now was not the time to say so much.

The subordinate had originally wanted to report that the official of the genius battle domain had once sent a Stellar level strong one to the Hearing Sky Star looking for Jia Yan, but seeing Jia Yan’s urgent demeanor, he swallowed back all he wanted to say.

Arriving at a boundary extending for tens of kilometers on the planet, occupying a massive area of the celestial body, was the place where Xi Bala and her research team resided.

This factory had also begun to take shape, almost resembling the scientific research base of the Country of Taia that Jia Yan had seen before.

”Master, you’re finally here.”

Without waiting for Jia Yan to enter the research institute, Xi Bala had already come out to greet him.

With her leading, they walked while conversing towards the factory area.

Meanwhile, the Secondary Level subordinate who had brought Jia Yan here nodded and bowed as he retreated outside the plant since his status was still insufficient to partake in Jia Yan’s core secrets.

”The ejection device has been made, but are you sure you really want to eject, Master? You know, the location you set, returning to the Genius Battlefield isn’t that easy...”

Xi Bala was exchanging with Jia Yan and then showed a look of regret.

Especially as she saw that Jia Yan had now transformed the Battle Armor back to his true form as a Giant Mosquito, feeling increasingly reluctant.

Lord Jia Yan wasn’t just her most powerful partner but also her former idol, no, it should be said, still is.

”I will come back...”
