It’s precisely because we’re close to the town that we’re staying here!” said the bearded man, hard-pressed to hide the pain on his face as he downed a bowl of boiling clear water.

“We’re close to the town because that’s where we can get a network connection.

We’re waiting to get in touch with a VIP.

If we manage to connect with him, the Northeast Wild Tiger, the Addicted, or even Shanghai City wouldn’t mean anything to him!”

“Who are you talking about?” the middle-aged man asked, puzzled.

Just as the bearded man was about to answer, a muddy young girl ran in from outside, joyously exclaiming,

“The Giant Mosquito has appeared again!

I just heard the people outside in the jungle say that another massive mosquito has appeared outside Shanghai City!”

Hearing the news, the bearded man and another young man with glasses brightened considerably.

This was the news they had been waiting for!

It seemed the Giant Mosquito really had something to do with Senior Wormscript, and they were helping these people for what purpose?

Was it not mostly due to the recently missing Senior Wormscript?

Because of this, their faces were all smiles now!

The middle-aged man and woman seemed to make some connection upon seeing their evident happiness at the news of the Giant Mosquito.

This man and woman were Father Jia and Mother Jia.

They had an uncanny sensation ever since they suspected that their family had some inexplicable connection to the Giant Mosquito.

Why did these Giant Mosquito monsters seem to feel differently about their family?

People said that despite being quite friendly to humans, the Giant Mosquitoes did kill sometimes.

Yet, the ones they had encountered seemed to be mostly friendly and even saved their lives.

And now these two powerful men, who were clearly assigned to protect their family, were extremely delighted by the news of the Giant Mosquito.

Clearly, it held extraordinary significance for them too!

But what exactly was the connection?

Even racking their brains, they couldn’t figure it out!

“Let me check if the internet’s still working.” After taking a short breath, the bearded man took out his phone.

As he saw the battery almost depleted, he acted even more promptly.

At this point, the Giant Mosquito flew a lap around Shanghai City and returned to its temporary lair, careful not to draw attention to the small building it had been observing.

This was where it had mutated and grown stronger.

However, the grey and dusty soil and debris seemed to dissipate with the wind after Jia Yan left, leaving little trace behind.

Jia Yan spiralled back into the lair.

However, he quickly realized that he couldn’t hide in the forest as effortlessly as before.

Exposing himself had become a given.

Sighing, the Giant Mosquito accepted the reality of this change.

Gaining something often meant losing something else, Jia Yan thought.

His larger form made it impossible to move seamlessly through the forest and human cities, like when he was just a Little Mosquito.

Yet it didn’t affect Jia Yan too much.

The village nearby was already deserted, with no one left to disturb his peace!

He fetched his dust-covered notebook bag at this moment.

He took out his laptop from the bag that had been with him for so long.

Due to his size, it took him quite a while to unfasten the zipper carefully with his forelimb chitinous blade.

“It seems like my only means of communication could be unusable soon.

How would I contact others then, sigh…” Jia Yan frowned, despairing at the thought.

But that was a worry for later.

For now, he thought he could still try to communicate with people through the internet.

He was still small enough to use the computer, though barely!

It was just a bit hard!

“Senior!

I’m sorry but we’re being pursued by two formidable individuals, Northeast Wild Tiger and Addicted.

Their abilities surpass ours.

We’re fleeing with the people from the Jia family.

Please hasten to our aid if you see this message.

I fear we can’t hold out for much longer!”

“Senior, we’ve been on the run for three days.

Both of us have suffered severe injuries and need the Jias’ support.

Please rush to our aid upon receiving this message.

It’s a matter of life and death!”

Jia Yan’s enormous figure hunched as much as possible over the computer screen.

To him, today’s laptops look as mini as adults holding a three-inch cellphone.

But that didn’t stop him from seeing the text on the screen, and he saw it very clearly!

“Northeast Wild Tiger?

Addicted?

These names really take me back.”

Upon seeing these two names, Jia Yan was taken aback.

He really hadn’t anticipated hearing these old nicknames again.

But the conversation in the assassins’ messages was such that it didn’t stir up even the slightest bit of nostalgia for these long-forgotten names.

“The two of them, one shot at me before, while the other forced me to mutate hastily the second time!

Although my chances were largely due to the Northeast Wild Tiger and Addicted, if they truly intend to harm my family, they are doomed, no matter what!”

Returning to this place, Big Mosquito only intended to check the news online.

But now, upon seeing a message about a threat to his family, he certainly wouldn’t linger!

Having just completed his promotion, he was full of energy now!

So, upon noticing the message from those two assassins, indicating his general location, he sprang into action!

The cellphone was gently set aside, Bearded sighed deeply.

At this moment this man seemed to have just survived a disaster, it felt odd to witness.

But the bespectacled young man on the other side had the same expression.

Their expressions left the three members of the Jia family baffled.

“Have you guys contacted this benefactor yet?

We should hide deeper into the woods.

His assistance will take some time, those people can find us at any moment.”

Having finished speaking, Father Jia wanted to help support the injured bespectacled young man to his feet.

“No need.

Now that the benefactor knows about our situation, he’ll quickly send someone.

But don’t be scared when you see this ‘person’!” The bespectacled young man had a look of exhaustion.

The continuous running of these past few days had completely drained their strength.

Had it not been for their unwavering willpower supporting them, he might have already collapsed.

Now, hearing that there was news from ‘Insect Scholar’ senior, all his exhaustion was finally released and he almost passed out right then and there!

Jia’s family had no idea what was going on with these two men.

The three of them shared a confused look, about to ask something.

But then, a raucous noise was heard!

“They’re up there!

Someone said they saw an unfamiliar girl around here.

Start searching!”

A male voice echoed, followed by a chorus of calls in response.

“Huh?…..”

Bearded and the bespectacled young man were taken aback, their eyes grew serious.

They knew their senior had the ability to communicate with the mosquitoes and could probably even control them.

But under the current circumstances, the Big Mosquito that just appeared couldn’t possibly reach them this quickly.

After all, communication between the Insect Scholar senior and the Big Mosquito would take time.

It’s barely been any time and their assailants had already closed in!

No choice, it seems they must weather this storm!

“What are you getting up for, lie down!

They won’t find us here just yet!” Father Jia quickly pushed Bearded back down.

He was so weak, a mere touch toppled him over.

But the ever-closer footsteps made everyone’s heart pound!

Finally, footsteps were heard getting closer and closer.

(The end of this volume is nearing, kindly support Step Leap by subscribing to the official version, thank you!)

(I’m feeling weary.

Several authors who started writing their books along with Step Leap, despite having better subscription performances, chose to quit and have been encouraging Step Leap to quit as well.

They said: ‘With your poor results, compared to ours, what’s the point of continuing to write?

Hurry up and quit or finish the book and start a new one!’.

Although I will never quit, their constant discouragement is making me feel discouraged.

Sigh…To be continued.
