Chapter 87 - Chapter 87: Chapter 82: Capturing a Special Bumblebee i (2/2)

When pulled out, it would tear away the entire venom sac.

Incurring a loss of a thousand to kill eight hundred enemies, exchanging life for injuring the foe.

After catching the hornet, Qin Niu didn’t rush to let it go.

Instead, he took it out and locked it in a small cage he had made.

Then he quietly waited for the arrival of the hornet swarm. But there was no sign of them.

Qin Niu wondered to himself, could it be that when it was flying in circles in the sky, it wasn’t releasing pheromones to call for reinforcements?

The Green Demon Beekeeping Classic had mentioned it.

When the scout wasps discover a honey bee nest, they leave a mark near or on the nest.

Which other hornets can “smell.”

And then they quickly gather.

At that moment, the air was filled with the rumbling drone of bombers, and Qin Niu looked up to see another four or five hornets appear.

But after circling in the air, they left swiftly.

“Did you release a danger signal to your companions?”

Qin Niu glared angrily at the captured hornet.

“Free me!”

It responded.

“No problem!”

Qin Niu sneered as he climbed down the tree, tied a thin thread to the hornet, and released it.

Having regained its freedom, the hornet immediately took to the air with a high flight.

But it had no idea that the cunning human had already marked it.

Qin Niu immediately followed it with Xiao Nui in the direction it flew off.

The leaf with a touch of red on yellow, dangling behind the hornet, was like a guidepost.

Fortunately, Qin Niu had grown significantly stronger, which enabled him to barely keep up with the hornet.

Watching it fly to a cliff ahead and then disappear from view.

Indicating the nest must be on that cliff.

Qin Niu had not brought any protective gear, but this did not deter him.

First, he climbed up the cliff to search carefully.

Soon enough, with the help of his Insect Trace Identification skill, he successfully located the hornet’s nest.

Unlike common wasps that usually build their nests in trees, hornets prefer the ground.

This may be related to the queen hibernating underground.

Mainly because they are powerful and have extremely strong survival capabilities. Many insects cannot defeat them, which is why they dare to build their nests on the ground.

In a recess of the cliff face, there was a very large burrow.

Qin Niu didn’t dare get close, for if he were stung, he would mostly likely perish.

He gathered materials on the spot and began making defensive tools.

Mainly a helmet.

To protect his face and entire head.

The clothes he wore were thick enough, and he wasn’t too afraid of them.

After hastily crafting a helmet from vines, Qin Niu approached the hornet’s nest.

He had intended to burn them with fire.

But then he saw a hornet with strange patterns on its abdomen and immediately captured it with a butterfly net.

Before he could identify this special hornet, the swarm exploded out of the nest, with a large number of hornets flying out to find the enemy who dared to intrude their territory.

Qin Niu quickly hid and stayed still.

Yet his eyes were fixed on each passing hornet.

He didn’t spot another with such distinctive patterns on the abdomen.

After the swarm calmed down, he retreated along the same path and hurried home.

He went to get a fishing net to capture the entire hornet nest.

The special hornet he had captured was taken out and locked in a cage for identification.

Luckily, he had read the Green Demon Beekeeping Classic multiple times.

He had some knowledge of Insect Identification.

Identifying whether this hornet had any special powers was not particularly difficult for him now.

Without this knowledge, he wouldn’t have been able to recognize this hornet’s uniqueness at a glance.
