Chapter 50: Chapter 45 A Scheme, a Honeybee i

Translator: 549690339

Although he had only just begun to understand Bee Language, any skill, once initiated and the method grasped, could be practiced repeatedly and become more and more proficient.

Learning Bee Language immediately added 10 points to his fluency in the language of insects, indicating a certain degree of intercommunication among the languages used by insects.

It’s like human languages where a country might have many different regional dialects, but the written language is universal.

The ways insects communicate are also limited to a few: either by releasing chemical signals, by body movements, or by creating sounds through wing vibrations or friction of their tegmina.

At this point, Qin Niu’s proficiency in the insect language had advanced from beginner to skilled.

Insect Language Fluency 13.51/100.

To advance to the next level, he needed to reach 100 fluency points, and an effective communication with an insect could only increase the fluency by 0.01 points. He would need to communicate with them more than eight thousand six hundred times to level up.

Of course, that was the conventional method of leveling up.

There must be some shortcuts for a quick enhancement, such as the 10-point direct increase he just earned from comprehending Bee Language.

Based on this experience, learning several more insect languages should allow for rapid advancement in insect language skills.

Or, once his spiritual power became stronger, if he could communicate with insects thousands of times a day, the pace of progress would be equally terrifying.

Now he could communicate with termites roughly forty to fifty times a day, increasing his fluency by about 0.4 to 0.5 daily.

In fact, that wasn’t too slow.

At least much faster than the average Insect Master’s progress.

Many Insect Masters might take three years, five years, or even longer to advance from beginner to skilled in the insect language.

Those with talent progress quickly.

Qin Niu was different, his fluency increased by a stable 0.01 each time.

It seemed slow, but in fact, as long as he practiced diligently, he could make steady progress.

At this moment, the honeybee trapped in the spider web was still struggling nonstop, emitting bursts of calls for help.

“Save me…”

“I’m trapped!”

“Can you hear me?”

Whether its calls for help could be heard by its companions was unknown.

However, the human in front of it could hear them loud and clear and had successfully translated quite a bit of it.

“Little guy, don’t be afraid!”

Qin Niu looked at the newbie honeybee and communicated with it using his spiritual power.

Though a day had passed, his spiritual power had only recovered by about half. It seemed that only through sleep or practicing the Everlasting Spring Technique could his spiritual power be recovered more quickly.

“Who are you?”

The honeybee was vigilantly rotating its head, both its compound eyes and three ocelli serving their purpose.

Its eyes were quite peculiar, quite different from human eyes in terms of forming an image.

Its compound eye was made up of more than five thousand hexagonally arranged ommatidia, giving it a wide viewing range and the ability to see distant objects.

This helped them locate flowers or detect enemies in advance.

If they only had compound eyes, they would be distinctly farsighted.

Theoretically speaking, the more ommatidia in the compound eyes, the clearer the vision. That’s because each ommatidium can see only a pinpoint, and then the five thousand points viewed by the ommatidia, like a scanner, form the image of objects.

Furthermore, the images formed by the honeybee’s eyes are upright, while human images are inverted.

Its simple eyes could sense light and see objects up close, though the images were quite rough.

Probably just a bit better than pixelated.

“I can save you!”

After a day, Qin Niu’s spiritual power had recovered by about half. Based on usual experience, he could communicate about 20 sentences with the honeybee, definitely no more than 25.

In fact, unless there were special circumstances, he would definitely reserve some spiritual power.

Becoming severely overdrawn would lead to him falling asleep in the mountains.

And that was a terrifying prospect.

Especially now that dusk was setting in, with nightfall soon upon them.
