Underground Cave!【Request for Collection】_1 “This must be some kind of underground cavern!” The surrounding space was pitch black, filled with a terrifying, eerie feeling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jia Yan shook his now large, powerful six long legs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each leg was as thick as a chopstick.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the tips weren’t slender anymore, instead, they were wrapped in a layer of coagulated armor, protecting the vulnerable parts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a slight movement, his long legs seemed capable of tearing the air in half, stirring up a gust!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Jia Yan himself couldn’t estimate his tremendous strength!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His once thin and weak frame was now like a body encased in another layer of armor, sturdy and heavy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This armor was formed by stacking layers of coagulate on the surface of his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having gone through numerous severe collisions, Jia Yan’s physiology chose the path of defense in the process of mutation!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eleven sections of his midriff looked as if they had grown muscles—layers of tissues were piled up, causing his soft belly to no longer be vulnerable to the wind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The powerful muscles that appeared after the third mutation were contracting in his abdomen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jia Yan could feel that with a little effort, the tail needle at the end of his abdomen could pierce through the air and viciously stab the enemy to death!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the tail needle, it was also continuously mutating towards perfection!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s length had reached two centimeters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taking this into account, Jia Yan’s current body size had reached fifteen centimeters in total.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surface of the tail needle showed no signs of the wounds it suffered from the bat’s bite!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The whole thing presented a streamlined shape.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The previously unsightly jointed structure, evolved from the reproductive organ’s pincers, has now become a smoothly integrated flowing line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thanks to its smooth, streamlined design, Jia Yan could pierce through even harder objects, meaning his attack methods, aided by the existence of this tail needle, had become more intimidating!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Interrupted by a shockwave during the mutation, Jia Yan’s body was now more focused on defense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In terms of attack, his size was limiting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he possessed strength, the length of his mouth and tail needles were not enough, and they couldn’t be regarded as particularly lethal weapons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the loss of attack power was compensated by the incredible defensive power he obtained due to the toughness and condensation emphasized in the mutation process!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His cellular tissue resembled a condensed bundle of muscles!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention the thick outer shell armor!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jia Yan, always a weak mosquito, now felt unprecedented security and confidence from these defenses!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even in this unknown dark space, Jia Yan felt that his worries and fears had diminished a lot!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had truly become stronger!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After observing his body, Jia Yan looked up at the passage he had fallen down from.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But looking up, all he could see was darkness, he couldn’t discern anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The pipe in that boiler must connect to a crevice on the ground, and then I fell all the way down and ended up here…” Jia Yan analyzed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most important component of the Northeast Wild Tiger Factory was the metal boiler in the second workshop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, what was the most unique thing about the boiler?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps there were other things added to it, but the most important thing, no matter how you looked at it, was this crevice leading to the underground!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What secrets are here…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>allowing the Northeast Wild Tiger to manufacture the purple-red medicinal liquid, and even produce a stronger Black Night Liquid from the boiler’s furnace!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jia Yan looked around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a dimly lit open cave, but some faint algae were growing on the top of the cave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They could emit light, slightly brightening the space…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jia Yan didn’t recognize these kinds of algae!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He even felt that the oxygen content in the air here was much higher than outside, this purity of oxygen gave him more strength to move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were too many strange things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, the huge red centipede that had swayed in front of Jia Yan earlier gave him some resistance, so now, seeing anything strange wasn’t a big deal anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s see if I can fly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jia Yan looked somewhat worried at his new pair of wings which had also mutated, becoming larger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The organs he regarded as comparing to human strength were actually two pectoral muscles on the sides of his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jia Yan wasn’t completely sure if this part’s strength had reached human level, but at least, that’s how the wings felt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, he was about to fly, Jia Yan was a bit worried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the strength of the wings hadn’t increased much, he wouldn’t be able to fly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although his body size was now not too large, the muscle tissue and the coagulated outer shell had at least quintupled his weight!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With such a heavy body, it would have been impossible to fly with his previous wings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flap!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wings fluttered and Jia Yan found that the sound produced by the wings was much sharper than before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flap, flap, flap…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He controlled his wings and started to exert force abruptly!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The flapping frequency exceeded two hundred times per second!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hum, hum, hum…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The flapping frequency exceeds five hundred times per second!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hum, hum, hum ——\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The massive and heavy body finally started to lift off from the ground little by little!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A huge rock in Jia Yan’s heart finally fell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He currently doesn’t feel any significant strain in the muscle tissues that flap his wings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that case, he estimates that he could possibly reach a limit of about 700 flaps per second, an improvement from before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plus, since his body tissues have adapted to changes in aerodynamics, he believes his top speed should definitely be faster than before!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for his maximum speed, he’ll only find out when he gets the opportunity to test it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jia Yan flapped his wings and flew towards the ceiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, there is a massive hole with a diameter of about two meters directly above the cave!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This seems to be a naturally formed entrance, probably created by groundwater flow over a long period of time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The interior is covered in large and small protruding rocks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These rocks are likely the cause of his injuries when he fell!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that case, all he needs to do is fly up this entrance to return to the factory!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jia Yan flew a distance and then paused again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This cave is truly strange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The main source of the Northeast Wild Tiger Factory’s secret recipe is likely obtained from this underground cave!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the three above-ground buildings built by the Wa Kingdom before were specifically for this cave!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Jia Yan had just seen the enormous centipede—it doesn’t look like a natural creature!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This suggests that something weird might be going on in this place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If I don’t explore now, I might never get another chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fire-red centipede from earlier was indeed dangerous, but I can fly, so it’s not a big threat to me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hesitating for a moment, Jia Yan controlled his body to turn around in the passage and returned directly from where he had come!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He decided to explore the mysterious cave below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, over a kilometer above ground level, three lonely buildings stood in the middle of a vast forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where it was once busy, it was now somewhat quiet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The machinery in the factory workshop had stopped roaring, but in its place, the screams and swear words of the workers continued to echo within the two workshops!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The workers were all confined inside the factory by Northeast Wild Tiger!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most critical boiler has been damaged, and other machinery in Workshop No.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>2 has been damaged to varying degrees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coupled with a series of mutations and gunfire, the factory workers are like scared birds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They are quitting one after another and requesting to return home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Northeast Wild Tiger and his people couldn’t control the situation, so they gritted their teeth and detained all the workers!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boss, what do you plan to do?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person standing in front of his desk is a young man wearing glasses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This unemployed college student recruited from a job fair isn’t planning to abandon his boss in these trying times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Northeast Wild Tiger is very pleased about this!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The upcoming period is probably going to be the most challenging time since we established the factory!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just to be cautious, I will call back Senior Addicted to deal with teams sent by some unkind individuals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, I just had a phone call with an influential person who promised that there would be no official action against me from the police or government, as long as I can solve those teams coming secretly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He will soon arrange for me an excellent official position.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Exhausted, Northeast Wild Tiger pinched the bridge of his nose, as if all the energy that should have been inexhaustible was completely exhausted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s great!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the passage in the boiler, can you explain it to me now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ve had my suspicions for a long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The main ingredients in our drug formulae are substances that don’t have much of an effect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now I think about it, the most critical thing must be from this boiler, which you’ve been keeping secret from me, right?” The man with glasses asked uncertainly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After taking a deep look at him, Northeast Wild Tiger nodded slowly,” Yes, this passage, according to my great grandfather’s records, directly leads to a deep part underground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Several decades ago, there were about a hundred people in seven or eight exploration teams from the Wa Kingdom who went down, but finally, only two people came back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My great-grandfather wasn’t sure about the specific circumstances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All he knew was that after that, the Wa Kingdom’s medical personnel created the formula I have now, and that boiler was installed in the workshop on the second floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I didn’t expect that it would explode after so many decades.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Northeast Wild Tiger sounded rather melancholic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I see, so we still don’t know what is underground!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The place is intriguing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It led to the entire Wa Kingdom team vanishing without a trace and also allowed the creation of these purple-red drugs through that passage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s unbelievable!” After pondering for a long time, the man with the glasses said with disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After chatting for a bit, the man with the glasses said his goodbyes and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his back to him as he opened the door, the icy voice of Northeast Wild Tiger echoed, “You won’t betray me, will you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man’s hand, reaching for the door handle, fluttered for a second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he quickly replaced it with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You have given me the opportunity of a lifetime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I would never betray you!” He said and then closed the door behind him as he left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I sure hope so!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the closed office, in the dim light, Northeast Wild Tiger’s face was hard to see clearly, giving off a cold and eerie vibe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thanks to the ‘safcaf,’ ‘878kh,’ ‘I laughed, then cried, then forgot,’ ‘A Season\u002FAnother Silence’ and other comrades for their continued tipping, thank you!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also, thank you ‘sasadaeffe’ for your gift of 5 tickets for 6000-word updates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We have you to thank for this leap, thank you!\u003C\u002Fp>",1904,"2026-06-06T02:52:17.133Z",1,"novelbin.me","582d0f9411f740d1c4d8d3801363fdcc4caebf703c89799342293dec27650e36","reborn-as-an-interstellar-giant-mosquito-chapter-67","reborn-as-an-interstellar-giant-mosquito-chapter-65",2495,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Freborn-as-an-interstellar-giant-mosquito-cover.jpg"]
