Putting on a mental shield before acting has become an unconscious choice for Gu Xi.
After putting on the shield, Gu Xi quietly approached the source of the buzzing sound.
Strange bees, larger than glass marbles, fluttered through the air, their wings trembling.
It's a huge, densely packed area.
The flying, strange bees are difficult to catch, but for Gu Xi, who has mental powers, controlling one is not difficult.
Mental constraints
A burst of mental energy shot out and precisely caught a strange bee flying in the air.
After it fell to the ground, Gu Xi picked it up to check the information.
Sea bees: They feed on all kinds of flowers, especially the flowers of the heart-shaped beetle.
So this is what sea bees are. Gu Xi realized; the description of sea bees when she was messing with the Bewitching Heartwood had mentioned them. She hadn't expected to encounter them so soon.
Judging from the swarms of sea bees, there must be a sea bee hive hanging on that tree in front.
These sea bees look just like honey, and they probably collect nectar like honeybees.
Besides, the flowers of the Heart-Bewildering Tree also attract them, so it's not unreasonable for them to have some honey stored up, right?
Think about what bees are afraid of? Bees are afraid of smoke and fire. I don't know if sea bees are the same, but it wouldn't hurt to give it a try.
Thinking of this, Gu Xi picked up a pile of dry branches nearby and piled them under the tree where the sea bees were flying.
Then he borrowed a lighter from Sun Yiming and lit the fire directly.
The flames spread rapidly on the dry branches, crackling and popping, and then white smoke instantly filled the air.
The sea bees were suddenly enveloped in smoke, and they began to fly around restlessly.
Gu Xi was delighted; sure enough, the smoke was effective on the sea bees!
A moment later, some sea bees tried to escape the smoke, some lost their way in the smoke, and many more were dazed and fluttering haphazardly in the air.
One by one, sea bees fell down, like a rain of sea bees.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Gu Xi took out the incendiary agent from her bag, opened the cap, and sprayed it towards the sea bees in the air.
Her movements caused the sea bees to become even more confused.
Some sea bees were directly ignited by the incendiary agent, their wings instantly burning off and falling to the ground.
Some continued to hover in the air, trying to escape the chaotic situation.
The dry branches on the ground gradually caught fire, and the heat waves from the flames shot upwards, startling the sea bees in their hives high up and causing them to swarm out.
Of course, not all the sea bees ignored Gu Xi, this outsider.
Many sea bees have also discovered her presence.
However, since Gu Xi had erected a mental defense barrier, they were powerless against her.
One by one, the sea bees crashed into the mental defense barrier, immediately lost consciousness, and fell to the ground.
Listening to the continuous crashing sounds, Gu Xi felt that their heads must be hurting from all the force of the impact.
Please, please leave! She only wants what's in the hive; she doesn't really want to exterminate the sea bees.
Whether it was Gu Xi's "pleading" that worked or not, not long after, the sea bees flew away into the distance, leaving Gu Xi standing alone in the same spot.
Gu Xi only removed the mental defense barrier after the buzzing completely disappeared.
She crouched down and picked up the "corpse" of a sea bee.
The fact that the sea bees that fell to the ground did not disappear indicates that they were merely stunned.
Since these sea bees didn't attack her, she decided to let them go.
Gu Xi put the sea bee down and went to the tree. She looked up, trying to see the treetop, but the thick white fog blocked her view.
She looked around, released her mental energy, and sensed no danger. So she spread her arms and began to climb the tree.
