Invincible Snake Emperor-Chapter 40: Killer Bee

Tu Xiao’an could only wait patiently.

Thankfully, it was only three minutes, which wasn’t too long.

"DING... Creature fusion and evolution successful."

"Level 3 Mutant Killer Bee. Enhanced Life Force, strengthened body, ten-year lifespan."

Skills: "Can shoot a long stinger from its tail. Contains a potent toxin. One sting causes total paralysis. Two stings cause foaming at the mouth. Three stings result in death by poisoning."

Note: A Level 3 Killer Bee contains ten long stingers.

At that moment, Tu Xiao’an saw a large Wasp, looking as if it were clad in Golden Battle Armor, floating lightly in front of him. It shimmered with golden light, so majestic that it took one’s breath away.

’Damn, that’s one huge Wasp.’

Tu Xiao’an was dumbfounded. The Wasp was a full ten centimeters long, about the size of a baby’s fist. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

Most importantly, its aura was overwhelming and incredibly majestic.

’A Killer Bee, a Killer Bee! My Wasp is incredible!’

’It can actually shoot stingers from its body. Three stings, and you die from the poison.’

’This is practically a biological weapon.’

Seeing that the first creature he had ever evolved was so ridiculously badass, Tu Xiao’an’s Snake Pupils began to glow.

’That 100 Energy Value was so worth it.’

Imagine if Tu Xiao’an had a hundred of these Killer Bees, all capable of shooting stingers from their tails. What a spectacular sight that would be! It would be like a battle between ancient armies, with a volley of ten thousand arrows.

’From now on, this Killer Bee will be my Imperial Sword Guard.’

After his excitement subsided, Tu Xiao’an began to observe the situation outside. A swarm of Wasps had invaded, and battlefields were everywhere. He estimated their numbers and saw there were only a few hundred.

But a mere few hundred Wasps dared to invade the home base of over a hundred thousand bees. One could only imagine how rampant the Wasps were.

The terms "nemesis" and "natural enemy" were not just empty words.

Everywhere, you could see battles of dozens or even hundreds of bees fighting a single Wasp. Just these few hundred Wasps were enough to bring the entire, massive Bee Family to the brink of annihilation.

When Wasps need to raise their young, they search for beehives. Usually, they send out a few as a vanguard. Once a hive is discovered, a massive Wasp invasion follows.

In typical rural homes, bees might build a nest, but you’ll also often spot Wasps lurking nearby. They are looking for the beehive.

Beekeepers despise Wasps the most. The bees in their hives are often attacked by Wasps. Often, fewer than a few dozen Wasps can easily slaughter all the bees in a single hive. And a standard hive can house around fifty thousand bees.

Even if a hive doesn’t have fifty thousand bees, it will still have twenty or thirty thousand.

The lethality of Wasps against bees was clear. It was like an invincible general charging onto a battlefield—it was a massacre.

Tu Xiao’an had evolved one Killer Bee. He wanted to evolve more, but he had no more Wasps. So, what he needed to do now was capture all these invading Wasps for his own use.

Just then, three Wasps passed by the Silver White Snake, ready to join the battle. But when they saw the extra-large Killer Bee floating beside the Silver White Snake, they inexplicably showed looks of fear.

Majestic and imposing, the Killer Bee exuded an aura of authority directed at its own kind.

Looking at the Killer Bee, a ferocious glint appeared in its eyes. It suddenly flew in front of a large Wasp, bit down directly, and began to eat it mercilessly.

Tu Xiao’an hadn’t expected his Killer Bee to be so savage. It started devouring the Wasp without a second thought, as if it were some kind of delicacy.

It was said that Wasps were ferocious, but this Killer Bee, evolved from a fusion of a bee and a Wasp, was even more violent, short-tempered, and bloodthirsty.

The large Wasps, which struck terror into the hearts of bees, had absolutely no ability to resist Tu Xiao’an’s evolved Killer Bee.

The other two large Wasps saw this and were so scared they almost fell out of the sky.

The Killer Bee feasted heartily, devouring a Wasp over three centimeters long in just a few bites. Its eyes then lit up, wanting to eat the other two as well.

Seeing this, Tu Xiao’an quickly narrowed his eyes. With a single thought, the two Wasps vanished and reappeared in his Pet Box.

’It’s too wasteful to let them get eaten like this. I need these Wasps as material to evolve more Killer Bees.’

The Killer Bee was so powerful that unleashing it on the battlefield would be a catastrophe. Both the bees and the large Wasps would face annihilation.

Whether it was the bees or the invading large Wasps, both were Tu Xiao’an’s assets. As the saying goes, the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.

Tu Xiao’an was about to order the Killer Bee to go on a rampage when it suddenly flew before him, landed on the ground, and prostrated itself. It then spat out a mouthful of solidified liquid.

It was a granular, crystalline substance.

’What is this!’

Tu Xiao’an was puzzled. The granular substance emitted an intoxicatingly fragrant aroma that revitalized his spirits.

"DING... Killer Bee’s Exclusive Honey. Effects: Detoxification, enhances Qi and strength, boosts human immune system."

’Holy crap, this granular stuff it spat out is actually honey?’

Tu Xiao’an was dumbfounded. So his Killer Bee had this kind of magical ability hidden away. It didn’t even need to gather nectar; it could produce honey directly.

’You’re amazing, my Killer Bee.’

He looked at the granular honey. The honey on the ground floated up. Tu Xiao’an thought happily, ’Let me have a taste first.’

Tu Xiao’an opened his snake mouth and swallowed the honey in one gulp. It instantly dissolved into a sweet taste in his mouth and flowed down his throat.

His Snake Pupils immediately lit up. His entire body felt incredibly comfortable, his Snake Skin began to shine brilliantly, and he even felt his strength increase slightly.

Although it wasn’t very noticeable, he could still feel it.

’Wow, this is good stuff! It’s just a small pellet, but its concentration is extremely high, containing the purest Energy.’

If he didn’t know better, Tu Xiao’an would have thought he had taken a stimulant.

’If a person ate this honey, the effects would be absolutely remarkable. It can boost the immune system, increase strength, and make one immune to all illnesses. It has miraculous health-preserving properties.’

’Most importantly, it has a detoxifying effect. The detoxification should refer to neutralizing bee-related venoms. For example, if you were poisoned by a Killer Bee’s stinger, one small pellet of this honey could cure it.’

’Of course, it can neutralize the venom of both honeybees and Wasps.’

Why did Tu Xiao’an come here today? Wasn’t it to get some wild honey to take back for his mom to make honey water?

With this Killer Bee’s honey, he might even be able to cure his mom’s cough.

’Come on, spit out another one.’

Tu Xiao’an watched the Killer Bee excitedly, waiting for it to spit out more honey. But after waiting for a long time, the Killer Bee showed no reaction.

’Is it out?’

’Could it be that the Killer Bee can only produce one pellet of honey per day?’

Tu Xiao’an pondered for a moment, but then he immediately rejected the idea.

’No, that’s not right.’

’The Killer Bee only spat out the honey after mercilessly eating a large Wasp. It must be that it can only produce honey in its body after eating something.’

’Mm, that must be it.’

’It consumes something, then converts the ingested Energy into the most highly concentrated honey.’

’You can’t expect a horse to run if you don’t let it eat grass.’

’As the Tao gives birth to One, and One gives birth to Two... the Killer Bee eats food and produces honey. Perfect.’
