"No, this guy has the aerial advantage. I have to lure her down to fight."
Wu Di felt a bit helpless. Mosquito Girl could not only fly but was also incredibly fast, able to disengage from his attacks at any time.
If they fought in an open area, he would be completely on the defensive. Fortunately, they were in the deep mountains, and the dense jungle provided the best cover.
Bzzzzzz~ A buzzing sound approached. Without looking back, Wu Di sped through the dense forest. He knew it was impossible to completely shake off Mosquito Girl.
Even if she couldn't see him, the pervasive swarm of mosquitoes would expose his location. His only option was to retreat for now and find an opportunity to strike later.
"Hehehe~ Little mouse, where do you think you can run?"
Mosquito Girl's charming voice echoed from the sky. Swarms of mosquitoes, under her command, quickly pounced towards Wu Di as she leisurely followed behind.
"Die!"
Bang bang bang~ Wu Di swung the mace in his hand, scattering the attacking mosquito swarm time and again. However, quite a few mosquitoes managed to take the opportunity to start draining his blood.
But this was insignificant to Wu Di. With a perfect talent score, his Immortality meant he could recover even if he turned to ash, let alone mere blood loss.
"I need to hurry, or I'll just be powering her up."
Wu Di knew this couldn't continue. After all, the more blood Mosquito Girl absorbed, the stronger she became.
Right now, he was like a giant, mobile blood bank, providing an endless supply of energy to her.
"Kill, kill, kill!"
Boom boom boom~ Wu Di charged through the mosquito swarm, his mace dancing with powerful gusts. Gradually, strong air currents formed around him. Each strike easily annihilated thousands of mosquitoes.
"Hmm?"
In the sky, Mosquito Girl, who had been in a relaxed state, finally sensed something was wrong. She clearly felt Wu Di being bitten by the mosquitoes, yet he showed no signs of excessive blood loss or fatigue.
Instead, the mosquito swarm was rapidly diminishing. Any mosquito that got close to Wu Di was quickly eliminated.
"This is interesting!"
A wicked smile spread across Mosquito Girl's lips. She swooped down towards the forest, unleashing a fierce slash with the twin blades in her hands.
"Not good!"
Wu Di felt an incredibly strong gust of wind approaching and instinctively dodged to the side.
Rumble~ The terrifying attack completely demolished the surrounding trees, directly exposing his position.
"Heehee, you can't escape now!"
Swish~ Mosquito Girl dived down. Wu Di gathered his strength and met her head-on.
Boom~ The two collided violently. However, unlike their first encounter, this time it was Mosquito Girl who was sent flying.
"Die!!!"
Wu Di pressed his advantage, his entire aura erupting. An invisible vortex surrounded him, and the mace in his hand, heavy as a thousand pounds, was swung with fury.
Mosquito Girl's pupils contracted. For a moment, she felt a threat of death. Her agile body dodged rapidly, but it was too late.
Poof~ Mosquito Girl's lower body exploded. Unfortunately, even this didn't inflict a fatal wound. She seized the opportunity and escaped Wu Di's attack range.
"What a shame."
Wu Di was filled with regret. That strike had the potential to instantly kill her, but Mosquito Girl had still managed to escape.
"Damn it, what's going on with this guy? His strength has increased so much."
Mosquito Girl's expression turned grim. However, she wasn't willing to risk further confrontation with Wu Di and turned to leave.
"Spiral Incineration Cannon!"
Boom~ A pillar of fire erupted from Wu Di's hand, blasting towards the airborne Mosquito Girl.
Bzzzzzz~ A massive mosquito swarm timely blocked the path of the fire pillar, instantly being annihilated. However, it also successfully covered Mosquito Girl's escape.
"If it continued like that, I might have actually died here. Oh well, once I've absorbed enough blood, I'll come back and deal with you properly."
A cold smile played on Mosquito Girl's lips as she turned and headed towards Z City.
"Trying to run?"
A cold glint appeared in Wu Di's eyes. He had finally encountered a Demon-level monster, and he wouldn't let her escape so easily. He immediately pursued in the direction Mosquito Girl had fled.
"Breaking news: A large swarm of mosquitoes has gathered in Z City. According to intelligence, all attacked livestock have turned into mummies. Citizens are advised to flee immediately upon encountering mosquitoes."
Inside a residential building in Z City, Saitama was leisurely watering his plants, completely unaware of the dark shadow that was enveloping the sky in the distance.
Wherever the shadow passed, birds and livestock alike were reduced to dried husks. Soon, piercing alarm sirens echoed throughout the entire city.
"Alert, alert! Disaster level: Demon. Citizens, please do not go outside. Repeat, Z City residents, do not go outside."
"Hahaha, what's so scary about mosquitoes? Can they even kill people? I've gotten so many treasures this time, I don't even care if I get a little blood sucked."
A blonde man gazed at a large bag of gold and silver beside him with a sinister grin, contentedly preparing to leave.
"Huh? What's this?"
Bzzzzzz~ A massive mosquito swarm suddenly swept over, engulfing him.
"Damn it! What is this? Ahhhhh!"
The blonde man's body was instantly engulfed by the swarm of mosquitoes. He screamed and struggled frantically, but it was all in vain. He was eventually drained of blood by the swarm, leaving only a desiccated corpse on the ground.
"Mmm~ The taste of blood, it's truly wonderful."
The swarm of mosquitoes gathered in the sky above Z City, and a charming voice emanated from within. Mosquito Girl's figure was revealed; her lower body, which had been shattered during her previous battle with Wu Di, was now completely restored.
"But this level isn't enough at all. Go suck up some more!"
"Target locked!"
Just as Mosquito Girl was complaining, a streak of fire attacked. She dodged it instantly with her agile movement.
"They've caught up already?"
Mosquito Girl frowned slightly. She thought Wu Di had pursued her, but upon closer inspection, she saw an unfamiliar face.
"So that's how it is. You control the mosquito swarm to suck blood, and then you claim it all for yourself? If you're transmitting some kind of signal to the mosquitoes to control them, that would explain their strange collective behavior."
"In other words, if I eliminate you, these bothersome mosquitoes will disappear too."
Genos stared at Mosquito Girl with a blank expression, not taking her seriously at all.
"Hehehe~ I don't know who you are, but since you've come, be prepared to be completely drained. Attack!"
Mosquito Girl's expression turned excited as the swarm of mosquitoes descended upon Genos, covering him completely.
"Incinerate!"
A clear, cold voice rang out, and a massive flame spread outwards, instantly incinerating the mosquito swarm.
"I'm going to eliminate you!"
"Hehehe~ You dare say you'll eliminate me? Then try it!"
Mosquito Girl's expression instantly turned ferocious as she lunged forward.
She, who had always been invincible, had already suffered a defeat at Wu Di's hands today. Now, another brash youngster dared to say he would eliminate her. This was unbearable.
Boom, boom, boom~ Explosions continued to erupt throughout Z City. At this moment, Wu Di had just arrived, tracking the mosquito swarm.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk~ It's quite lively. I didn't expect they'd already started fighting."
