A World Worth Protecting Chapter 65: This Is a Good Mosquito
The mosquito was really too big, such that one could see the hairs on its legs standing up like spikes. As it moved its wings, the wind blew, shaking all the trees in the vicinity. Wang Baole and the others felt as though there was a storm ahead of them.
The mosquito's proboscis was especially shocking, one seemingly so sharp that it could easily pierce through metal. As the mosquito flew closer, Wang Baole's eyes widened, and his brain seemed to explode; he was frightened to his limit.
It was the same for the men in black and the elder. All of them could not help but shiver, just like ants meeting an elephant. That indescribable feeling made everyone feel like they were going to break down.
It was such that they no longer dared chase after Wang Baole. Everyone stood rooted to the ground, not daring to move.
Truly, the aura that the mosquito gave off was too terrifying to describe. Even Wang Baole imagined that if this mosquito needed to, its aura could destroy everyone's body and mind instantaneously!
As everyone shook in fear, the mosquito slowly flew over and bowed its head in midair. Its eyes seemed very human, showing a sense of annoyance, as though it felt that the cruisers around it were immensely irritating. When it flapped its wings, five of the cruisers flew away like toys, as though a gale had struck them. With a boom, they landed far away. Only one of them reacted quickly enough to escape.
This scene made everyone struggle even more to breathe. As they shuddered, the mosquito did not give chase but chose to perch on a tree. Its gaze swept across everyone, but whoever its gaze landed on felt as though they could not breathe. Even Wang Baole felt his scalp tingle. The good thing was that this mosquito only glanced briefly at each person.
Eventually, its eyes settled on the elder.
This made the elder shiver, his face showing his nervousness and fear. He did not know why the mosquito was staring at him, and he screamed in fear internally.
What kind of beast is this? Damn it. There are no mosquitoes in the Federation's list of ten biggest beasts!
No one dared move. They did not even dare breathe too quickly. After a while, they found that the mosquito still had not left, and each of them started to panic even more.
Wang Baole swallowed, noticing that the mosquito only seemed to be interested in the elder. He felt lucky, thinking that it would be best if the mosquito simply exterminated the elder. Carefully, he took a small step back.

As he moved, Wang Baole watched the mosquito closely. If the mosquito reacted in any way, he would stop immediately. However, even as he retreated three to five steps, the mosquito did not seem to notice him and paid no attention. Wang Baole started to relax, and as he started breathing faster, he quickened his steps.
The surrounding men in black all saw Wang Baole's actions. After hesitating, they started to take light steps toward Wang Baole. To their joy, they discovered that the mosquito indeed ignored them, but even if that was so, they did not dare flee. They just continued taking slow steps.
Thus, from afar, it seemed that everything within this area had slowed down. Wang Baole and the other men in black were all moving in slow-motion, trying their best to move away as far as possible.
Seeing that everyone else could leave, the elder grew anxious and tried to take a step back too. However, just as his body moved, the mosquito suddenly gave off an icy feeling, as though warning him.
This warning look almost made the elder cry, wailing internally.
What is this? They can move, but I can't… I didn't do anything to offend this mosquito!
Wang Baole and the men in black noticed this. Each of them had a strange expression. Wang Baole's heart started beating rapidly, and he was filled with gratitude toward this mosquito.
This is a good mosquito!
As he praised the mosquito, Wang Baole moved faster and faster. Finally, when he was about a hundred feet away from the mosquito, he turned and started sprinting.
At the same time, the men in black had already left the set boundary. Seeing Wang Baole escape, they all exchanged glances. Even though their leader was still trapped inside, their mission was not over, so two of them who had reached peak Pulse Enrichment led the group, running after Wang Baole.
Very soon, the area grew quiet. Only the elder remained, shaking and wailing internally. But it made no difference to the situation. The mosquito still stared at him, making the elder lose all hope.
In the forest, Wang Baole had left the mosquito behind. Although the oppressive power from the mosquito had vanished, Wang Baole knew that he was still in danger. As he fled, Wang Baole's gaze flashed. Unbeknownsty to him, after going through all these incidents, he had become more decisive in dealing with situations, and he acted faster with ruthlessness.
I have to change my plans. There is still one cruiser left. Even if I get further, if I can't kill those guys behind me quickly, I will be in danger the moment the old man catches up.

Although that old man is in trouble, I can't place all my hopes on that mosquito. I don't know why it kept staring at that old man, but it didn't attack him, Wang Baole analyzed, determination brimming in his gaze.
There is only one way. That is to kill everyone except the elder in a short time. Like that, I have the highest chance of getting out of this situation!
With this thought, Wang Baole looked at the purple flying sword in his hand, his eyes showing an icy determination. His body shook as he decided not to run anymore. Instead, he turned around on the spot and headed straight for the men in black with killing intent.
As they chased, these men had split up to increase their chances, but they had remained close to each other and were constantly communicating as they tore through the forest. Two peak Pulse Enrichment experts led the group as they had the fastest speed. While all of them rushed through the forest, there was a loud boom from afar. A fatty wearing a Head Prefect Daoist robe flashed past, burrowed into the grass, and ran off swiftly.
"There!" A cold look flashed instantly in the eyes of the two peak Pulse Enrichment men as they rapidly increased their speed, and suddenly giving chase. The seven or eight people behind them followed with a very threatening demeanor.
Just as the majority chased that shadow, not too far away, two men in black had also increased their speed to join the others. However, in this instant, the grass around them started to distort, and Wang Baole's shadow flew out. His speed was so fast that in the moment it took for the two men in black to change their expressions, he had already drawn close.
Without waiting for them to open their mouths to scream, Wang Baole waved his hand, creating a flash of purple light. The speed of the purple sword was much faster than ordinary flying swords. The instant it appeared, it flew straight through one of the men's foreheads. As for Wang Baole himself, he slammed into the other man at full speed, kneeing the man's crotch viciously. Ignoring the man's retaliation, he used his right hand to cover his mouth and slammed his body into a nearby tree.
With a bang, the man's eyes widened, and he convulsed as he died. The other man in black also fell to the ground; the purple sword had pierce halfway through his forehead.
Although everything seemed to happen slowly, it was actually only a moment. Wang Baole panted. Even though he had the pills as supplements, his energy had almost reached its limit. After all, each time he fought, it was a matter of life and death, and he had to resolve it quickly. To him, the pressure was immense, and his energy expenditure was especially high.
He did not have the luxury of time to think. Wang Baole took back his sword and once again took out a puppet from his storage bag. After giving an order, he and the puppet began to run, one in front of the other. Ahead of them, there were still four men in black in the process of searching.
After ten breaths, the two peak Pulse Enrichment experts who had been chasing the shadow wearing the Head Prefect Daoist robe finally caught up. However, what they discovered was a puppet. The fatty from before was actually this puppet wearing many layers of clothes to make it round. In that instant, their expressions warped in horror.
It was at this time that they heard a pathetic cry from afar. Enraged, they rushed over to find four corpses and a broken puppet.
"Everyone be careful. Wang Baole is near us, and he has a puppet Dharmic artifact. Take note!" The two men had terrible expressions as they shouted into their surroundings.
Just as they shouted, there was another reverberating cry.
"He's here. He's wearing our clothes…"
The sound suddenly stopped, and the forest descended into silence again. However, the remaining men in black had all started to shiver, their breathing rapid. They were all on high alert, looking left and right, and quickly moved closer to each other.
Just as they were keeping watch, nearby, Wang Baole hid in the grass. There was a wound on his chest so deep that one could see bone. There were two similar wounds on his back. The blood had stained his clothes, and it was so painful that his forehead was covered in sweat, but he endured it, holding the last few pills in his mouth and staring at the men in black.
"I killed nine people. There are still seven more. They won't split up that easily, so I need another plan." Wang Baole slowly moved backward, his mind working rapidly. At that moment, from far away, there was the buzzing sound of a mosquito that seemed to be traveling fast. In the sky, that giant mosquito quickly flew over him.
This scene terrified all the remaining men in black. They looked up, and even Wang Baole gawked at it.
The mosquito left? I don't know if that old man is still alive, but it won't make a difference now. I can only take this chance to fight!
