After dealing with the swarm of giant bees, the cleanup of the battlefield was left to Ding Cheng's men, while Luo Xinglan and the others were teleported back to the armored ship.
Now that she has collected 100 [Weapon Room Fragments], she must craft the Weapon Room blueprints.
Perhaps the weapons depot will play a positive role in the subsequent war.
Mr. Lu collected the polluted air samples to take back for research. Luo Xinglan gave him some [Cleansing Honey] to study as well, to see if there was a necessary connection between the honey and the miasma.
The group then went their separate ways.
Before the crew could even catch their breath after returning to the armored ship, they heard the familiar buzzing sound and smelled the familiar pungent odor.
Luo Xinglan rushed out of the house to check and, sure enough, saw a dense swarm of bees that had surrounded her armored ship.
In terms of numbers, this swarm of bees seems to be smaller than the swarm that surrounded Ding Cheng earlier, but it is still terrifying.
Jiang Mingze exclaimed, "What the hell! How come another swarm of giant bees has arrived?"
Sun Zexia: "Could it be one of the fish that slipped through the net earlier? Is it chasing after us?"
Luo Xinglan shook her head firmly: "It's not one of the fish that slipped through the net just now. Look, this bee colony also has a queen bee."
There is only one queen bee in the colony, and this queen bee is different from the previous one in both size and color.
This shows that these are completely two bee colonies.
The one that just appeared has already been eliminated; this one is new.
Ouyang Aotian said in a deep voice, "Then let's continue with the fire attack!"
Knowing that swarming giant bees are afraid of fire, they gained experience in dealing with such large swarms.
Jiang Mingze once again pulled out several buckets of gasoline and distributed them to everyone. The group poured the gasoline onto the bees and then threw away the torches.
The flames then began to spread among the bees.
However, this time the swarm of bees did not gather in large numbers, so the fire did not spread as quickly as before.
The swarm of bees was quickly engulfed in a sea of fire.
However, two giant bees attempted a desperate counterattack, flying towards Luo Xinglan and Qian Duoduo engulfed in flames, their enormous stingers aimed at the two of them.
With a flick of her meteor hammer, Luo Xinglan smashed the giant bee that had lunged at her to the ground, where it struggled for a few moments before turning to ashes.
Qian Duoduo swiftly jumped onto the back of the black eagle, dodging the giant bee's attack.
The giant bee then turned to attack Sun Zexia, who was closest to it, but Sun Zexia shot it through with an arrow.
The two giant bees were quickly eliminated.
The fire burned for a full hour before the giant bees were finally dealt with.
I once again obtained a small amount of [Refreshing Honey] and a few epic weapon blueprints.
The battle was over.
Luo Xinglan looked deep in thought.
Why are there fewer bees this time than before?
It's related to the number of people gathered on the wooden raft...
Or is it just a coincidence?
Following that, the world channel issued a series of announcements.
Ouyang Aotian: "I'll have someone investigate right away to find out whose rafts the swarm of giant bees appeared on."
Luo Xinglan nodded; it seemed that Ouyang Aotian had also noticed this.
Ouyang Aotian quickly found out the truth.
“The appearance of the swarm of giant bees is indeed patterned!” Ouyang Aotian said excitedly. “The more survivors gather, the larger the swarm becomes! So far, it’s usually the large groups of people that have been attacked; individual survivors have not been attacked yet.”
It seems that the survivors gathering together is not a good thing.
Although gasoline can be used to deal with bee swarms, when there are too many bees, some will inevitably slip through the net, just like what happened earlier.
It's better to act alone.
Luo Xinglan: "Share this message with the other survivors and tell them not to gather in large groups anymore, but to split up and act separately!"
"Sun Zexia, at this rate, the level two shops will be refreshed soon. Contact Jiang Ruobai immediately and have him and Mr. Lu put a batch of masks, gasoline, diesel, and other flammable materials on the shelves to deal with this swarm of giant bees!"
Sun Zexia nodded: "Okay, I'll contact him now!"
Others shared the guide on the world chat channel.
"Giant swarms of bees that are several meters long? How can these alien creatures be so grotesquely large?"
"Is this even a bee? It's bigger than an eagle!"
"Why do these bees bring poisonous gas? Is this some kind of special ability they possess?"
"We're not sure if it's poison gas, but the boss said it's best to wear masks, so let's listen and wear them."
"But I don't have any epic-level weapons or masks right now. What if I encounter danger if I act alone?"
"This time, we'll use fire to attack the swarm of giant bees; we don't need any weapons!"
"But I don't have any gasoline either..."
"Look, the level 2 shop is unlocked! They have gasoline, diesel, and masks! All you need is one Hero Point!"
"Huh? But I don't have any Hero Points yet."
"..."
Soon, everyone clicked into the Hero Points Shop to buy supplies.
Of course, there were other people on the world channel who already had gasoline, masks, and other supplies. Since it concerned all the survivors, they generously put their own items in the trading hall and sold them at bargain prices.
"A batch of masks has just been listed in the trading hall. They're only 2 gold coins each. Anyone who needs them can check them out."
"I just put several portions of diesel up for sale, only 10 gold coins each!"
"At this point, shouldn't you all stop profiting from the war? Why not just give it all away for free?"
