Reborn As An Interstellar Giant Mosquito

The final tense moment arrived. The other party used Brainwave Power to slowly send the Battle Armor to the side of Jia Yan’s avatar.

Jia Yan controlled his avatar and calmly gazed at the black metal block flying toward him.

”Wait!”

He suddenly controlled his avatar and abruptly spoke.

”Hmm? Mr. Moke actually wants to go back on his word!”

The Semi-permanent Star Monster’s behavior was beyond Jia Yan’s expectations; it appeared to be attempting to flee.

Its front foot lifted, seemingly ready to escape at any moment.

”Uh.” Jia Yan froze momentarily, then suddenly wanted to laugh.

It seems the image of ’Crazy Moke’ has been overly demonized. Otherwise, this Intermediate Talent Semi-permanent Star Genius of the Liqiao Force wouldn’t be so terrified.

Jia Yan found it amusing for another reason—his fears of being ambushed were misplaced; instead, it was others worrying about him ambushing them.

”Ahem, Senior, I simply wish to inspect the goods. Rest assured, I won’t go back on my word.” His avatar spoke awkwardly.

”Hmm...” The other party hesitated, retracting its half-lifted foot with equal awkwardness. ”Alright, Mr. Behalf can feel free to inspect the goods.”

In truth, most of the monsters from the Liqiao Force were more interested in Technology rather than combat. Though their strength was formidable, they lacked combat experience. Facing a team led by the legendary ’Crazy Moke,’ nervousness was naturally expected.

Earlier, when Jia Yan’s avatar opened Subspace, the Liqiao Force monster noticed the presence of another entity inside. Realizing it was likely the powerful space-talented ’Crazy Moke,’ the monster immediately felt deeply endangered.

This explains the escape attempt upon Jia Yan’s avatar speaking.

Both sides remained silent about the matter, and the other party’s reaction further calmed Jia Yan down. He controlled his avatar to approach and then touched the Battle Armor.

”Your Excellency, this Battle Armor is practically unusable. Among us Semi-permanent Star Level beings, there are barely any who can operate it. Even for those who can, its consumption of body strength renders it almost unusable. Don’t mistake it for a counterfeit during inspection.”

The other party seemed worried that Jia Yan’s avatar might not recognize its value.

The avatar nodded, quietly examining the spherical Battle Armor Memory Metal from all sides.

The metal was indeed Memory Metal. Although there’s a possibility the other party used their Technology to craft Memory Metal as a deception, judging by their evident fear of ’Moke,’ they likely wouldn’t dare use a counterfeit.

After all, the threat of an Artificial Black Hole explosion is akin to the scenario back on Earth when a certain ’Kim’ family wielded nuclear weapons to threaten other nations. Even if people ignored them, they couldn’t ignore the nuclear weapons.

”Alright, let’s proceed with the transaction.”

In Subspace, Jia Yan deeply gazed at the heavily damaged Conceptual Ship, feeling somewhat reluctant. After all, it had accompanied him through many battles. Its ability to enable fights that surpassed several Great Levels elevated its value to Jia Yan as a partner.

But there was no choice now—the Conceptual Ship would be completely ruined in a few months. Trading it for a Battle Armor that currently matches the Conceptual Ship’s power and offers ’that kind of’ upgrade potential, as promoted by Xi Bala, was a necessary compromise.

”I hope you can be repaired by the Liqiao Force in the future.”

Jia Yan sighed deeply, controlling his avatar to place the Conceptual Ship on the ground.

Simultaneously, the pitch-black spherical Battle Armor Memory Metal approached his avatar.

With no hesitation, after confirming there were no explosive devices or tricks on its surface, the spherical Memory Metal was brought directly into Subspace.

”Haha... A new battle companion has arrived.”

Within Subspace, Jia Yan observed the object almost identical to the Conceptual Ship he had seen before, then deftly pressed a button on the surface of the metal sphere.

This was the activation button.

The Subspace distortion had no effect on the Battle Armor, which was comparable to the Conceptual Ship in defensive power. This further confirmed to Jia Yan that this was indeed the promised Battle Armor.

”Equip!”

Jia Yan issued the command, and the spherical Memory Metal unfolded, enveloping Jia Yan’s mosquito body entirely.

The massive Memory Metal encased Jia Yan’s body, immediately giving him a sense of security. Having recently emerged from the Conceptual Ship’s protection, his power had instantly fallen to the Dignitary level, leaving him somewhat uneasy.

”The feeling is similar to the Conceptual Ship, but where is the difference?”

Once fully encased, the Battle Armor began to ravenously absorb strength from Jia Yan’s body surface. Simultaneously, his body secreted Cellular Power to meet the demands of the armor.

This consuming behavior resembled how no one could operate the Conceptual Ship effectively. This Battle Armor, having remained unused for a long time in the Liqiao Force, likely had no one capable of fully utilizing it.

Jia Yan, being an Evolutionary Creature, inherently possessed the capability to operate it—a fundamental biological advantage!

Soon, a metallic monster nearly indistinguishable from Jia Yan’s previous ’Crow’ form appeared within Subspace.

”Hmm, I see. Some functions on the panel are gone, even propulsion capabilities have disappeared? Sigh, it truly is a streamlined prototype. However, it seems to have features the Conceptual Ship lacked...”

Inside the Battle Armor, Jia Yan experienced a transformation that made him feel almost identical to his time in the Conceptual Ship—as though his mosquito body had been outfitted with enhanced combat capability armor.

”Haha... Aside from reduced long-range flight capabilities, this armor is virtually identical to the Conceptual Ship. At least for close-quarters combat, it provides almost the same boost as the Conceptual Ship in perfect condition. With my improved original body’s strength, my current combat power even surpasses when I wore the Conceptual Ship in peak condition!”

”No, this armor has additional combat features—its combat capacity enhancement is, in some respects, stronger than the Conceptual Ship’s. However, its energy stability is slightly inferior, confirming its prototype status. Yet this difference is negligible for me.”

Jia Yan almost burst into laughter.

After donning the Battle Armor, a powerful sensation surged anew, even greater than ever before.

”With my significantly enhanced Spatial Ability, could I now directly engage a High-Level Semi-permanent Star combatant head-on?”

A dark glint flickered in Jia Yan’s eyes. ”Even if there’s still a gap, it shouldn’t be far off, right!?”

On Workshop Star, in the hotel room where the Intermediate Talent Semi-permanent Strong One from Liqiao Force stood, he looked at the silent ’Behalf,’ completely at a loss.

The transaction had been completed; the counterpart should have left at this point.

But now, Behalf was frozen in place. The armor had entered Subspace, while the Conceptual Ship’s remains were left behind—and the Intermediate Talent Semi-permanent Star Strong One did not dare to approach.

He was terrified.

”Hmm, not bad. Very good.”

Suddenly, a voice echoed within the room.

The Intermediate Talent Semi-permanent Star Strong One froze, his sense of alarm spiking.

The voice did not come from the stunned Behalf—it came from a tear within Subspace.

Though this Semi-permanent Star being had already expected ’Moke’ to be hiding in the nearby Subspace, he had never imagined the other party would directly reveal themselves.

This was absolutely a prelude to betrayal.

He almost wanted to cry. Thanks to his reputation, his colleagues deemed him the best fit for the job. Now, this was the outcome—the other party truly intended to cause trouble.

Though ’Moke’ was only of Secondary Level strength, he was a madman. For someone like him, lacking extensive combat experience as a Semi-permanent Star being, engaging this opponent might not end well.

”Y-You, what are you planning? I-I can call for help, you know.”

The Intermediate Talent Semi-permanent Star existence, seeing the metallic crow step out from Subspace, instantly panicked. Though he’d never encountered Moke in person, the news often portrayed this metal crow amidst constant screams and combat—an infamous figure. Now face-to-face with the legend, his cold demeanor immediately melted, resembling a frightened bride.

”Uh.”

Jia Yan had just stepped out of Subspace but was almost thrown off balance by the strong one’s panicked cries.

”Ahem, I’m merely passing through. No need to worry, Senior. By the way, our collaboration was delightful. Goodbye.”

Jia Yan glanced at the strong one, then laughed heartily.

His true body clad in the metallic crow-shaped Battle Armor collided with the hotel room wall, crashing through and creating a massive hole. Then, together with his avatar, he darted toward the sky.

Indeed, this marked Jia Yan’s ’strong return’ and his first arrogant display!

Even without the black hole as leverage, Jia Yan now believed his strength was not much different from when he fought multiple Semi-permanent Star beings of the Group of Futile Life.

Hence, he dared to reveal his true body and declare his presence.

In the distant Starry Sky, a massive spaceship fleet formed a formation, standing ready.

”What? Jia Yan appeared alongside his partner and even damaged civilian structures? I don’t care about such trifles. Did he break the agreement? I’ve spotted them—if they reneged, attack immediately!”

Within the fleet, a High-Level Semi-permanent Star being roared into the communication device directed at the monster on the other end.

In the fleet’s detection range, two identically sized monsters appeared.

These two monsters were, unsurprisingly, Jia Yan and his avatar.

”So, they do have a fleet here.”

From afar, Jia Yan also saw the fleet. He contemplated for a moment before commanding his avatar to enter Subspace while he confronted them directly.

He wanted to see if they would attack.

When Jia Yan approached, the fleet signaled peaceful lights.

”Hehehe...”

The metallic crow-formed Mosquito looked like an unruly and powerful monster, flying audaciously through the center of the enormous fleet.

Even though any warship’s firepower could potentially harm him, Jia Yan remained unperturbed.

Mere moments later, he traversed the entire Liqiao Force fleet. As soon as he passed through, his figure suddenly entered Subspace.

After announcing his arrival and leaving with sheer arrogance, Jia Yan completely solidified his ’Crazy Moke’ reputation.

”Damned!”
