Chapter 422 - A Bold Idea (1/2)
Weng weng weng… A wave of chaotic buzzing sounds suddenly thrummed all around him.
Zhang Che found himself in an awkward position. He smiled in embarrassment, looking at the dozens of bees surrounding him from all directions.
“So you still have members around here, huh. Well, okay, I take back what I just said. The honey is still yours for now.”
While he mused, Zhang Che put on the Purple-Gold Demonic Armored Worm armor. A scarlet and white streak of sword light flew out from his brow, sweeping a hundred meters around him.
A few dozen split bee corpses fell like rain, turning into dissipating streaks of light one after another.
These four-star bronze-quality exotic beasts were truly too weak. Killing them with the scarlet and white sword was like shooting a machine gun at little chicks. They were incredibly easy to deal with.
Buzzing sounds kept rising. All the large bees within a few hundred meters came flying at Zhang Che. However, once they came within a hundred meters, they would be cut down by the scarlet and white sword, falling to the ground.
Zhang Che realized the drop rate today was really not bad.
He killed close to a hundred of those bees, and more than thirty beast cards dropped for him!
“A pity that these large bees are only four-star beasts. If they were five-stars, perhaps I’d be able to rank up my fusion skill to level 5 after killing all the bees here…”
Regrettably, fusing beast cards a second time wouldn’t give Zhang Che any experience points. Otherwise, he could fuse the four-star beast cards to five-stars, then fuse the product into six-stars, accumulating quite a few experience points.
Alas, the skill was very strict about this. He could only obtain experience points from beast cards that hadn’t been fused before.
Zhang Che felt his head aching when he thought about it. It was already so difficult when he only needed similar five-star beast cards. When the fusion skill was higher level in the future and needed high-tier beast cards, where was he supposed to find similar high-tier beast cards to fuse them?
“I don’t care anymore. I’ve already killed off all the large bees around here, anyway. Now it’s time to reap my harvest!”
He picked up the beast cards on the ground, then had the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon fly up to the trees on the cliff.
Even though he was a few dozen meters away, Zhang Che could clearly see a huge beehive, close to ten meters across, supported between the thick branches.
At present, there weren’t any bees around. They had all been killed by Zhang Che when they came flying at him earlier.
When he came up to the beehive, he was shocked at the size of it.
In his previous life, he had seen hornet hives built on trees and even the earth. Their size was only a meter-plus across at the most. They simply paled in comparison to the one in front of him right now.
The huge beehive in front of him was separated into two halves, top and bottom. The top half were covered in bowl-sized holes. It was probably used for reproduction.
The lower half, on the other hand, was a semi-open ‘storage space’. Zhang Che only took a glance inside and he was already shaking with excitement.
When he came closer to the opening, an extremely sweet, thick scent of honey immediately swept over him, assaulting his nose.
Zhang Che felt his mind and body relax just taking a whiff of it. He started drooling almost instantly, and had to swallow quickly.
“Shit, no wonder that bear risked death to come steal the honey. The scent is really something. I can’t take it anymore after taking just a whiff of it!” Zhang Che sighed. He didn’t expect his luck today to be this good. He was clearly on a search for spiritual herbs, and he actually came across something so much better than ordinary spiritual herbs.
From now on, the honey really belonged to him!
Just as Zhang Che was reveling in the scent of honey, and was about to get a taste of it, the frisky monkey sitting behind him also grew excited all of a sudden and cried out in a stammer, “Baba, eat, eat!”
Although the honey contained thick and unscattered spiritual force, the frisky monkey’s sense for it was truly too sharp. He immediately caught the saliva-inducing smell the moment he came close.
“Be good, you’ll get to eat it very soon!” Zhang Che said to the frisky monkey, chuckling. Afterwards, he took out a big ladle from his spatial storage and reached into the beehive, scooping a big ladle of golden-yellow, half clear amber-like honey.
