Reborn As An Interstellar Giant Mosquito

Capítulo 1986: Chapter 24: Unifying One Million Li in Every Direction

This made Jia Yan unable to show off his powers, but fortunately, the strength he exhibits isn’t all of his power.

“Kill.”

A beetle creature rushed in front of Jia Yan.

Jia Yan simply swung his foreleg sharply.

Puff.

The small beetle creature rushing in was directly cut off by Jia Yan’s single strike, severing one of its long pincers.

“My heavens, that’s powerful.”

The few beetle creatures following behind were too frightened to proceed.

Seeing the power of Jia Yan’s strike, the beetle creature with a severed pincer quickly fled backward, fearing Jia Yan would strike again and completely annihilate it.

“How about it, do you still want to act crazy and take the chance to kill me?”

Jia Yan casually asked the group of stunned beetle creatures in the universal language of this world.

“We wouldn’t dare, great deity, we wouldn’t dare.”

The beetle creatures felt a great shock at Jia Yan’s power, realizing that his strength appeared merely middle-level stellar but his actual aura suggested otherwise.

“This is a deity hiding his strength; we dare not provoke him.”

The beetle creatures, actually quite clever, immediately stopped pretending to be silly and acted like they were Jia Yan’s followers afraid of him wiping them out.

“Hmph, stop your act with the skills, I know your power is decent and you’re quite despicable, so stop pretending. If you approach again, I’ll wipe you all out.”

Jia Yan spoke casually.

Though he estimated that to wipe out this group of creatures, he would need to exert tremendous power, it’s not an impossible feat.

“Great deity, we wouldn’t approach, haha, how could we dare approach you? Don’t misunderstand, we originally came to trouble Cang Wu, since you’ve eliminated him, we’ll just leave, no problem at all.”

The beetle creature that initially spoke, realizing deceit wouldn’t work, laughed it off and started retreating with its group.

“Did I allow you to move?” Jia Yan’s expression turned cold.

“Uh, great deity, why can’t we move? Can’t we leave?”

The beetle creature’s eyes showed a hint of desperation, as if they were prepared to fight to the death if Jia Yan wouldn’t let them leave.

The beetle creatures were notably smart and acted sensibly, as they could see that while Jia Yan was strong, given their numbers, there was still a fifty to sixty percent chance at victory. Still, they were not willing to gamble.

Jia Yan using his seeming ability to crush them to bully them is something they wouldn’t accept or endure.

Their respective strength wasn’t overwhelmingly disparate.

“Heh, I just want to know about the territory around here. Won’t you even spare me a moment to chat?”

Jia Yan’s eyes suddenly turned glacial.

“Uh, if it’s just a chat, we can, great deity, please don’t be mad.”

The beetle creatures seemed increasingly confused by Jia Yan’s firm demeanor, unclear of Jia Yan’s strength, only superficially feeling he was a strong middle-level being, but if he were an average middle-level creature, he wouldn’t be this domineering before a group of beetles.

When something is out of the ordinary, it usually indicates a deeper issue, which is why they responded with caution.

“Fine, let me ask, in the houses nearby, how many intelligent creatures are there? Or to phrase it differently, how many territories around the houses are occupied by others, and what resources do you have?”

Jia Yan asked detachedly.

“Great deity, our living area isn’t large, since this city is the territory of the Giant Tribe, our knowledge barely covers a few million kilometers around here. There are seven Giant Tribe houses, with territory divided into around twenty areas, of which we count as one. Cang Wu’s territory counted as one too, but now it’s yours. However, its status seemingly derives from family friends from ancestors, so it’s possible that once you seize this land, people might come to trouble you.”

The beetle creature’s answer left Jia Yan stunned.

“Oh? Someone looking for trouble? I’ve become a territory owner, does anyone dare trouble me? Is there a distinction among territory owners?”

“Great deity, from your words, it seems you don’t know the city’s intricacies. Are you testing me, should I continue?”

The beetle creature felt belittled by Jia Yan asking such foundational questions, becoming furious and directly explaining the basics to Jia Yan.

“In this city, although the Giant Tribe occupies the primary position, they also permit our territories, as we don’t share too much of the Giant Tribe’s resources, and we’ve negotiated to help solve certain small waste or harmful creatures. Hence, our existence is tolerated. But the Giant Tribe dislikes seeing us small beings in constant war – it’s bothersome to them. Thus, our territory agreements include a clause banning prolonged warfare. To maintain stability and enforce these rules, a large organization of small species appoints a somewhat powerful creature as a controller within an area, to control without harming us but requiring certain tribute.”

“As an outsider, having killed Cang Wu, I’m guessing the controller of this territory would certainly trouble you. As controller, you can imagine his strength.”

“Regarding resources, there’s something quite valuable, among the few giants, one is a food production plant that produces food enhancing giant strength; ordinary to giants, it’s a significant power source for small beings. Therefore, our territory is quite hotly contested nearby.”

The beetle creature quickly shared extensive basic information about these territories.

Finished speaking, it gazed eagerly at Jia Yan, as if awaiting praise for its correct explanations.

“Oh, I see. Very well, since you offer goodwill, I won’t trouble you. But I have an idea here, I wonder if you all are willing to cooperate with me.”

Jia Yan’s words made the leading beetle creature feel a bitter taste, knowing Jia Yan wouldn’t let them go easily.

At this moment, he deeply realized that even if they felt Jia Yan was similar in strength, in Jia Yan’s eyes, they differed greatly, otherwise why would he be so overbearing?

So he thought a bit, choosing not to react angrily but rather calmly, moderately responding to Jia Yan’s encroachment.

“What cooperation, please speak, lord.”

The beetle creatures felt Jia Yan steadily advancing, reducing combat ideas and even escape thoughts, feeling they were hard to conceive.

After all, a strong being’s presence is primarily perceived from aura, but also discernible through attitude.

Jia Yan’s approach was overwhelmingly authoritative, not as if faking, making confrontation seem futile.

“I wish to unify the million kilometers around here, hoping you would help me!”
