Chapter 24: Chapter 24: The Beehive Chapter 24: Chapter 24: The Beehive Editor: Larbre Studio Chu You arrived alone at the Level 7 Experience Monster Zone, where one of the species was a bug bee that flew mid-air. It was the size of a small washbasin, quite nimble, and it might try dodging player attacks.

However, for Chu You, this was all pointless. The longer one walks in a certain field, the quicker they can spot the differences with their discerning senses and sharp consciousness.

So, when the bug bee saw Chu You preparing to hack at it with his knife, it darted to the side. However, Chu You, who was anticipating this, swiftly changed his stance, swiveled his wrist, and delivered a horizontal slash. His attack landed solidly on the bug bee, causing 92 points of damage.

Dodging? That was just an instinctual response from a monster with low intelligence.

In no time, the bug bee was swiftly dispatched by Chu You.

At this time, the bug bee didn’t explode into any equipment, but its corpse remained on the ground without disappearing and was burning with a flame. This indicated that there was something inside. This only happened when a monster had died in a dungeon. Seeing this, Chu You wasn’t surprised; he knew he had discovered something and immediately went to explore.

System: You have received a blob of ‘Bee Honey’.

A trace of annoyance appeared on Chu You’s face. He really didn’t understand why the system had to describe the honey as a ‘blob’.

Opening his backpack, he checked the honey’s function.

Item Description: Favored item of the Beekeeper Old Man. Can be exchanged for 50 experience points.

Reading this, Chu You was delighted. This was a good shortcut to leveling up; reaching level 7 depended entirely on it.

Putting away his backpack, Chu You looked around and noticed another bug bee buzzing around. He immediately ran over to it and was about to attack when he saw the bug bee start to gather nectar from a flower with its long, slender proboscis.

Seeing this, Chu You held back, lost in thought. He quietly stood about 3 meters from it, silently observing.

The bug bees weren’t aggressive monsters; rather, they had a ‘herbivore’ attribute and didn’t attack players on their own.

About 5 seconds later, the bug bee retracted its proboscis and started buzzing towards another location.

That’s when Chu You suddenly swung his slender Dao.

The attacked bug bee immediately returned and retaliated angrily.

Without much effort, Chu You killed it, and with an expectant look, watched as the bug bee’s corpse fell to the ground. As soon as it hit the ground, the corpse ignited into a flame.

Feeling relieved, Chu You immediately inspected the corpse.

Then, Chu You got yet another blob…

This method shouldn’t continue, Chu You thought. After a while he stood up; even if he could exchange it for experience, the rate was too slow. Compared to seeking a dense monster zone for a group attack, the latter would gain experience quicker.

If there was a bug bee hive in this zone, the situation would be different. Chu You glanced around, but all around were dense flowers and trees.

Well, let’s just wait and see, Chu You thought, continuing to move. As this was an exchange task, he decided based on his experience from his past life, to see if he could find any tricks or highlights.

Shortly afterward, Chu You found another bug bee collecting nectar. He remained still. After a while, the bug bee flew towards the other side. Chu You followed it, conscious not to disturb the creature.

When the bug bee was gathering nectar again, Chu You keenly observed that the abdomen of the bug bee seemed to slowly bloat.

It seemed he was onto something, Chu You thought, squinting his eyes.

After observing this four times in a row, the bug bee’s abdomen had become quite large, apparently as if it were already overloaded.

Should I attack now? Chu You thought but still didn’t move.

The wasp hovered in mid-air for a while, as if adjusting to its body weight, then began to fly in a certain direction. Chu You followed immediately.

All the way, this wasp didn’t stop to gaze at the beautiful flowers around. It just kept flying towards a certain place.

It seems…there really is a chance.

As Chu You followed the wasp deeper, he started to spot several wasp figures. This meant he was getting closer to the wasp’s hive. Chu You was delighted at this thought.

Soon, the buzzing sound could be heard everywhere around him, and the number of wasps significantly increased. They were flying out to collect nectar instinctively.

At this moment, the wasp that Chu You had been tracking flew into a cave taller than a man, and wasps were flying in and out of the cave time to time.

A cave! Chu You was overjoyed at the discovery; his assumption was correct after all.

Just as Chu You was about to approach, he noticed different breeds of wasps, with varied fur colors standing around the cave. Their heads were more complex, and their bodies were larger. Chu You immediately set his sights on them.

Queen Bee, Level 7, Mini-Boss.

Not in the elite class, just a bit stronger than the general species, the mere four Queen Bees were no match for Chu You. He rushed towards them with a scornful look and his hands on a sword.

As Chu You’s huge figure rushed out from the woods, the Queen Bees guarding the cave entrance spotted the intruder. At this moment, all the bees that were returning with a full load or about to collect honey stopped their tasks, and turned to face Chu You with fury in their eyes.

What the hell is happening?

Chu You quickly realized what he had provoked, a species with a collective nature. With this type of species, once one individual attacks a player, the entire crowd will launch an attack on the player, focusing all their aggression on him.

The wasps, who seem not to attack actively, are even more dangerous than the active attackers at this moment.

Because, in a way, these are deceptive species to players. They dull the sense of the players, trapping them by the time they find out the truth.

In the wild, once a monster targets you, you have to flee a vast area. It’s not enough to run a few hundred meters. The wasps are small, and there are many nooks and crannies for them to hide. A place where a human can fit, can the wasps not enter? Even if you find a perfect strategic position, the wasps could still kill the player with their Swarm Sea Tactics.

Watching as about forty wasps flew towards him, Chu You felt his scalp tingle. He quickly identified a weak link to break through, and soon a large swarm of wasps and four Mini-Bosses were in pursuit.

However, one thing is certain, the wasps would never be able to catch up with Chu You. So, in the process of running, Chu You kept attacking the wasps behind him. The technique was simple, just a thrust backwards! Trusting the increase in attack range, the wasps could not reach Chu You. After three strikes, he used a range skill: Sweeping Blow!

In this process, several wasps in the process of collecting nectar joined the wasp army to attack Chu You, and the team grew continuously.

As time passed, Chu You was able to kill some wasps using this method. A wasp even dropped a common equipment piece. Chu You caught a quick glance and continued to run. The equipment name was quickly buried in the swarm of bees.

Watching his physical strength drop continuously, Chu You was anxious. Could my first death be like this? Chu You was sweating profusely. Does this match the words ‘reborn’? Do you know how precious these three words are? They represent existence high above, deeper than the sea, higher than the sky!

Right now, this supreme existence is about to die due to a swarm of bees. What a careless move! I should’ve judged the situation better.

God damn it! Chu You gritted his teeth as he ran. If I manage to survive this ordeal, I’ll wipe you all out!

Chu You kept his eyes on the front, and the scenery on both sides flew by due to his high speed.

At this moment, a river appeared in the distance. Chu You was overjoyed.

Heaven won’t forsake anyone, earth is merciful, flowers have their blooming period, water flows endlessly, I’m not going to die after all!
