Beast Taming: I'm Really Just a Forest Ranger - Chapter 131 - 114: Incredible Life!
Chapter 131: Chapter 114: Incredible Life!
Just as Chen Yuan had guessed, this Sweet Bee Queen also has Tier Two strength.
Before the incessant rain that lasted all night, Chen Yuan had never seen a Tier Two wild Pet Beast despite going into the mountains many times. Now, three have appeared before him.
“Hiss.”
The Sweet Bee Queen’s scarlet eyes focused intently on the Spark flying midair. It waved the yellow flower in its hand, the yellow long dress at the bottom gently swaying, suddenly gathering a series of poison darts and continuously shooting them toward Spark!
At the same moment, Chen Yuan’s thoughts resonated in Spark’s mind: “Flame Surge.”
Maintain a safe distance first, and test the Sweet Bee Queen’s combat strength with remote skills.
“Chirp!”
Spark suddenly flapped its wings vigorously, eyes focusing, and in an instant, a searing fiery column burst forth!
The blaze surged forward, carrying a wave of heat, confronting the series of poison darts head-on!
“Hiss.”
However, the Sweet Bee Queen swung the flower in its hand, and the series of poison darts seemed guided by precise tracking, bypassing the fiery column and howling out from both sides, rushing straight towards Spark!
Spark adhered to Chen Yuan’s teachings, not waiting for his command to evade, fiercely flapped its wings, speed increasing, dodging left and right to completely avoid the swarm of poison darts.
At the same time,
The surging fiery column rushed straight toward the Sweet Bee Queen. It flew upwards; the column barely brushed the bottom of its long skirt before exploding into the air, dissipating.
After a round of confrontation, both sides emerged unscathed.
Once both reached Tier Two, Spark found it increasingly difficult to defeat opponents in a single blow; opponents tend to have evasion methods or counterattack abilities.
But with Fire Type against Insect Type, hawk versus bee, the advantage lies with me.
Taking advantage of the clash, Chen Yuan carefully observed every move of the Sweet Bee Queen, his eyes flickering as he made a speculation: “The Sweet Bee Queen is obviously more adept at remote attacks.”
Nowadays, there are detailed introductions to Attendant Bees in the Beast Taming Knowledge section, including their temperament, habits, skills, advantages, and disadvantages.
But documentation on the Sweet Bee Queen is sparse.
This is because a Sweet Bee Queen is only born in a significantly large swarm of Attendant Bees, making this type of Pet Beast extremely rare in the wild.
And, with a swarm of Attendant Bees led by a Sweet Bee Queen, ordinary researchers struggle to delve deep, and ordinary Beastmasters can only flee when encountered.
This constitutes a major dilemma in the current research on Extraordinary Creatures.
Therefore, most tasks are now issued by the Beastmaster Association or Beast Taming Academy, with researchers leading teams and multiple Beastmasters providing close protection, to conduct various studies in the wild.
Thoughts flashed, as Chen Yuan instructed, “Spark, try Flame Energy Assault.”
“Chirp!”
Spark spread its wings and ascended quickly to a certain height, its pair of deep blue eyes intensely staring at the Sweet Bee Queen. Accompanied by a crisp chirp, it stretched its wings emanating a Flame Stream, swiftly diving from high above!
Its speed increasing rapidly, its momentum growing stronger, layers of Flame Stream leaped upwards, covering its entire body.
“Hiss.”
In that instant, the Sweet Bee Queen sensed a lethal threat, its eyes glowing faintly, and unexpectedly, two Attendant Bees that were besieging the Earth Bear unhesitatingly turned and charged, facing the unstoppable momentum enveloping Spark, positioning themselves before the Sweet Bee Queen.
Boom!
The flame light expanded, heat waves surged, instantly consuming the two Attendant Bees.
Black smoke spread, vanishing in an instant, revealing the spirited Spark and the two fallen Attendant Bees.
Witnessing this, Chen Yuan was momentarily stunned.
The skill just employed by the Sweet Bee Queen must be a Spirit Type skill [Group Manipulation], which is said to have a probability of awakening only in the leader of a lineage, allowing the manipulation of swarm members through Mental Power.
Evidently, upon sensing the danger, the Sweet Bee Queen chose to have two unlucky ones take the hit for itself.
This choice may seem absurd, but it’s indeed the most correct choice.
Without the help of Earth Bear and Cola, facing the Sweet Bee Queen directly would mean it could use [Group Manipulation] to control all Attendant Bees to besiege Spark, united in heart, far more dangerous than now.
Thoughts vanished in a flash, Chen Yuan’s eyes subtly flickered, yet he saw the Sweet Bee Queen, at the same moment the two Attendant Bees fell, waving its yellow flower, causing fluorescence to flicker in front of it.
Soon after,
Accompanied by an extremely pleasant and rich fragrance, a faint pink mist began to spread.
Chen Yuan was momentarily stunned, then his expression subtly shifted, retreating dozens of steps.
This is… a Poison Skill, Sweet Fragrance, which has a certain probability of causing any creatures that smell it to fall asleep temporarily.
The name of this skill fits the Sweet Bee Queen perfectly, but the Sweet Bee Queen is an Insect Type Pet Beast, so why is it mastering both Spirit Type and Poison Type skills?
“A creature without the soul of an insect!”
Chen Yuan cursed under his breath yet quickly used Mind Sensing to warn Spark and Cola to avoid it, loudly commanding: “Electric Flying Cat, Earth Bear, don’t smell it.”
The fragrant aroma spread rapidly from the Sweet Bee Queen to all directions, and the closest Electric Flying Cat smelled it first. Although Chen Yuan’s voice echoed in its ears, it found the smell overwhelmingly pleasant, unable to resist extending its neck for a whiff.
Its consciousness began to blur, involuntarily recalling its previously wandering days, the happy times on the farm, with its eyelids growing heavy.
Bang!
Electric Flying Cat fell to the ground.
Chen Yuan helplessly held his forehead, but suddenly his eyes lit up, immediately instructing Cola: “Cola, use Wind Surge to control the spread of this aroma.”
That’s right, Sweet Fragrance spreads through scent, and Wind can disperse scent!
