[Subscribe Requested]_1 The first step is done, now it’s up to the people from Jia’s family to see how smoothly they can move in this queue.
anwhile, Jia Yan is in mid-air, flying and gazing downward.
His vision is remarkably far-reaching now, no longer restricted to a few ters like it was when he was a little mosquito.
The crowd underneath is also a curious sight.
“That giant mosquito monster seems to be moving along with us.
What a bizarre sight in this world, perhaps the Giant Mosquito is waiting until we’re absolutely desperate before making its move?”
Those below were eyeing the big mosquito above with a hint of worry in their expressions.
However, they were helpless; if they didn’t move, who knew when the Army of tallic Monsters might launch an attack.
Their only chance of survival was to forge ahead!
It was at tis like these that humans were most likely to unlock their potential.
Anyway, while Jia Yan was flying in the sky, people on the ground were hastening along the path.
As ti passed, they gradually beco familiar with his presence.
However, he still couldn’t get too close.
He had to hover a hundred or perhaps dozens of ters high up in the sky.
Compared to his flying speed, the pace of the human walk seed unbearably slow.
Jia Yan flew while inspecting the distant landscape.
The road below was filled with humans; a seemingly endless surge of people traveling onward, like a long dragon whose head and tail couldn’t be seen.
If nothing went wrong up ahead, the Jia’s family should be fine.
Jia Yan thought for a mont, then his wings flapped, sending him higher into the sky!
“Look, the giant mosquito monster is flying higher.
Maybe it’s leaving!”
The voices of the humans below rapidly faded into the distance as Jia Yan swiftly ascended.
Five hundred ters.
One thousand ters.
One thousand five hundred ters!
When he reached one thousand five hundred ter altitude, Jia Yan ceased ascending.
He was observing the path in front.
From a bird’s eye view, the human world actually didn’t seem so big.
The adjacent counties that once seed far away now felt within arm’s reach.
And the humans under Jia Yan’s gaze looked like tiny ants, forming a long line, moving along the path toward an unknown destination.
Attaining a certain height alters perception, like with Jia Yan now.
His new approach was different from before so now things didn’t feel the sa, especially the humans beneath him and this ongoing crisis.
He might not be able to put it precisely into words, but he felt things weren’t that bad.
Perhaps the internal problems of the humans were more serious than the attack of the tallic Monsters.
“All this thinking is pointless.
I’m not human anymore, my only job now is to protect my family, nothing else matters to !”
Jia Yan continued flying forward.
His plan was simple, fly ahead and scout the route first.
If there was any unusual circumstance, he’ll take care of it so his parents and his younger sister wouldn’t walk into unknown dangers.
He sped forward.
At Jia Yan’s current speed, dozens of kiloters seed instantaneous.
The sa distance would take the Jia family a long ti to traverse, they might not even complete it in a day!
So, having surveyed the distance, Jia Yan planned to return.
But just as he was about to turn back, his compound eyes narrowed slightly!
His vision could stretch incredibly far, especially from over a thousand ters up, he could see dozens of kiloters away.
Now, at the edge of his sight, dozens of kiloters away, he noticed sothing different!
It was a silver tide!
Countless humans were weeping and fleeing within it!
“What…is that?” Jia Yan felt a strong sense of danger emanating from that direction, stirring his heart and making it flutter.
This intense feeling of fear was the first Jia Yan ever felt.
“What is that?
It’s too far away, I can’t see clearly!” Jia Yan’s heart quivered as he scrutinized the direction of his concern.
No matter how he looked at it, that direction radiated extre danger.
After his evolution, Jia Yan’s sensory abilities were no longer in the sa league as an ordinary human’s.
His animal-like instinct had saved his life several tis, and he fully trusted that instinctive feeling.
“I absolutely can’t take this path!
Going down there is surely a road to death!” Thinking thus, Jia Yan did not dare to go explore.
Instead, he instantly turned around.
The world had really changed.
That place in the distance was clearly a large Earth Level city before, yet now it gave Jia Yan such a feeling of terror, sothing unimaginable in the past.
However terrifying it was, this was reality now.
At this point, the question wasn’t about whether this was real or not, but how he could keep his family safe from that direction.
He could still hear the cries of humans from that place in the distance.
While he was observing, it seed like sothing there had noticed him and a slender object changed direction towards him, as if it were preparing to fire sothing.
But fortunately, Jia Yan had quickly retreated before it could do anything.
After the slender object lost sight of him, it seed to give up its attack and ignored Jia Yan.
That place was too far away.
No matter how hard Jia Yan tried, he could not clearly see the object.
“What is that?
It clearly isn’t a human-made thing.
Could it be made by the tal Monsters?
Does this kind of monster have other properties?” Jia Yan could only feel a chill in his heart.
There were too many mysteries surrounding the tal Monster.
If it was released or lured out by him, that would be the greatest sin.
Did Jia Yan cause this catastrophe?
“It’s impossible.
With the scale of the tal Monsters, even if it’s not because of , they would appear eventually.
At most, I just accelerated their appearance!”
Jia Yan explained to himself, otherwise the pressure would be too great.
Even though he was no longer human, he’d still feel guilty if many humans died because of him.
His speed was extrely fast, and it took him an instant to cover tens of kiloters and reach an area not far from Tan City.
The Big Mosquito’s arrival once again caused the newly joined refugees to panic.
So people who had seen Jia Yan before tried to calm them down, and the crowd gradually relaxed a little.
However, Jia Yan’s arrival still disrupted the progress of the migrating masses.
So had chosen other paths instead of leaving their fate to the rcy of the Giant Mosquito Monster.
Disappointingly, Jia Yan discovered that his parents and sister were not among those who had changed direction.
If he wasn’t mistaken, the strange constructions tens of kiloters away and the silver tide were made by the tal Monsters.
The silver tide was in fact an Army of tallic Monsters!
At the speed of these humans, if they did not quickly change directions, they would be in great danger.
What was more important is that Jia Yan’s family were among these people!
“No, even if I have to use scare tactics, I need to steer them towards another direction!”
From the air, Jia Yan gritted his teeth.
He could clearly see the previously distant silver tide quickly approaching, swallowing up all human formations in its path!
Although there were still several tens of kiloters to go, with the speed of the silver tide, it wouldn’t take long to reach here!
Looking at the slow-moving human procession below, Jia Yan estimated that his parents had been on the road for about twenty minutes since they left Tan City.
They had rely covered a few kiloters, and at this rate, the silver tide would quickly catch up with them!
“There’s a fork in the road ahead.
If they take that path, it would surely buy so ti.
Worst-case scenario, other humans could serve as cannon-fodder against the silver tide of tallic Monsters.
Given the current situation, there’s no choice.
Even though more humans will die, my main objective is to protect my family!”
With that thought, Jia Yan descended even faster!
He tirelessly searched within the crowd and quickly spotted his parents and younger sister among the sea of people!
At that mont, the family of three was making their way through the crowd.
They had only been walking for a short twenty minutes and were already drenched in sweat, particularly Father Jia.
His legs hadn’t fully recovered, hence his movents were slow, and every step he took was painful.
“It’s that Giant Mosquito!
I heard people from the construction project talk about it yesterday.
It won’t harm us.
It even saved a lot of people last night.
This Giant Mosquito definitely won’t hurt us!” Amidst the crowd, a man confidently assured those around him that the Giant Mosquito was not as brutal as they imagined.
But just as he finished speaking and the crowd around him relaxed slightly, the man felt a gust of wind swoop past his head.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
—
A giant mosquito flew past over his head!
“Ah!” the man scread in surprise.
In that instant, the long legs of a giant mosquito lightly brushed past his head, almost causing him to faint from fright!
The man tumbled and fell to the side of the path.
The people around him reacted similarly.
The montum of the Giant Mosquito’s descent was unimaginable!
He was the first person to say that the Giant Mosquito wouldn’t harm people, and he was also the first to scream in fear.
After he managed to pick himself up, he darted off in panic towards the other side of the road!
