A Beekeeper in a Magical World Chapter 68: Take off!
Hua Mi copied the scout bee template and recorded it in her notes.
【Scouting Bee】
It is mutated from the ordinary Chinese bee, and its body size is similar to that of the Chinese bee. The villi on the body surface are shorter, harder, and denser, and the tips of the antennae glow...
[Lifespan: 1]
[Fecundity: 0.6]
[Productivity: 1]
[Attack power: 1]
[Defense: 1]
[Vitality: 1]
[Speed: 1]
[Tactical bonus: 5]
Collection ability: 1.
Combat ability: 5.
The scout bee is rated as [Level 3 bee].
Fecundity is a bit low, but that doesn't matter.
Fecundity is a dispensable attribute for scout bees.
Because this kind of bee is special, it does not need to form a swarm. Only one bee is enough at a time. The template can be converted at any time and used as needed.
As for the additional "tactical bonus", considering its special ability, the combat ability is therefore set at 5.
The role that this scout bee can play is no worse than that of the armored swift bee and the ring cutter bee.
If you want to explore some dangerous areas in the future, you can send reconnaissance bees to conduct reconnaissance first to seize the opportunity.
Or if you want to track a target, your strong sense of smell will also come in handy.
There is absolutely no problem in setting it as a level 3 bee.
"This time I opened a double yolk egg, a level 4 bee and a level 3 bee, which is very profitable."
Facts have proved that Hilya's improved mutation inducer is successful.
Unfortunately, the dose is a bit low.
"In the future, I need to help her pay more attention to dragon crystal powder... This mediocre little alchemy genius is worth cultivating!"
Hua Mi's favorability towards Hilya has increased significantly.
……
Next, Hua Mi began to prepare for the hybridization experiment.
He selected two worker bee larvae each from the forest swift bees, the pain bees, the armored bees, and the armored swift bees, and fed them according to the treatment of the queen bee.
When they develop into queen bees and reach sexual maturity, they can conduct hybrid experiments with new bee species.
Why not use the existing queen bees, because they have already passed the mating period, and even during the mating period, you cannot directly use the queen bee for experiments. Without the queen bee restraint, the bee colony is likely to have problems. It belongs to yourself. Looking for trouble.
Among them, the Forest Swift Bee has a relatively fast life cycle and should reach sexual maturity in less than a week.
I'm afraid I'll have to wait an extra week or even longer for the Armored Bees and Iron-Armored Swift Bees.
As for why not choose ring-cut bees.
The reason is still the same as before.
The circumcision bee itself is already the product of a second hybridization.
Using it for the third hybridization will increase the difficulty exponentially, and it is still difficult to achieve with his current mental strength.
……
Hua Mi ordered ten more Chinese honeybees.
Then travel to another world.
As usual, go to the greenhouse first, and with the help of the seven little ones, take care of the Perak flowers.
Then the beehives were moved out.
Bees need to be ventilated, and the amount of bee activity in the flower field is also good for the growth of flowers. Creatures in a circle tend to influence each other and promote each other.
Next, read the alchemy notes, practice controlling the swarm, and exercise your mental power...
The day passed quickly.
In the evening, go to the greenhouse as usual and plant the newly cultivated seeds to catalyze the flower field for the second time today.
It is worth mentioning that the first two acres of Perak flowers planted have fully bloomed.
On the pale blue petals, the lines as clear as thunder and lightning symbolize its strong vitality.
The growth condition is much better than the few plants in the ruins of Black Castle.
Whether it's the appearance or the more professional observation of its various parts, it is obviously one or two grades higher than those wild flowers.
If you want to determine the quality, the wild flowers can be considered good at best, and the ones in his flower field can't be said to be the best, at least they can be called excellent.
The bees are rising and falling among the flowers, which seems to indicate that the buds have begun to shed nectar.
I checked a few flowers in the past and found that there were indeed signs of honey flowing, but the amount of honey flowing out was still very small, not enough for a bee to collect.
There is also a little surprise.
The transformation speed of that powerful bee swarm was faster than he imagined. At dusk, all of them had emerged from their cocoons, forming a regular army containing nearly ten thousand bees.
"Very good, the number of troops has been increased."
The giant bees lined up in front of him.
The buzzing sound produced by the flapping wings is obviously much lower than that of ordinary bees.
This "big-bodied" bee, even among the wasps, is probably considered "muscular brother".
Compared with the little guys on the side who are concentrating on collecting honey, they are a little less cute and more domineering and philosophical.
"Try to see your fighting power."
Hua Mi controlled the swarm of powerful bees to come outside, looked around, and selected a stone twenty to thirty centimeters in diameter.
Go, Popeye!
The powerful swarm of bees swarmed up and clustered on the lower part of the stone. Their broad and strong backs resisted layer by layer while exerting upward force.
The weight of this stone is estimated to be less than 100 kilograms. It is a piece of cake for the powerful bee swarm, and it can be easily lifted off the ground.
But he failed to maintain his balance with all his strength. Just a few centimeters above the ground, he suddenly lost his balance and fell to the ground.
Every time I practice controlling a new bee colony, I am always not very proficient at first.
Because different bee species have different abilities, it's like choosing different heroes when playing a game. Although the game awareness is there, the overall difference is pretty good, but you still need more practice to play more smoothly.
Hua Mi was not discouraged and continued to practice with concentration.
After trying more than a dozen times, I was finally able to lift the stone more stably and perform simple air movements.
Although the stone was successfully lifted, the energy utilization rate of the bee colony was still very low. The main reason was that the direction of force exerted by the individual giant bees was not adjusted to the best, resulting in serious internal wear and tear.
And the control seems to be delayed, and the experience is a bit poor.
Hua Mi practiced until the sun went down.
If mental power could be quantified, it would be estimated that half of it has been lost by now.
Finally, I can control the bee swarm to perform some basic movements relatively smoothly, including rising, falling, turning, etc. Although it is not as good as using arms and fingers, it can be said that practice makes perfect.
Bang!
The swarm of powerful bees dispersed in a rush, and the big rocks in mid-air fell to the ground.
“Next it’s time to try flight mode. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com”
Flying is a coveted ability for humans.
Especially when walking hard in the forest, Hua Mi longs to fly freely like the seven little ones.
He took a sip of honey water to replenish his energy, and controlled the powerful swarm to fly back towards him.
Lift one foot, letting half of the giant bees in the swarm sit on the sole of his foot, like a black somersault cloud.
In this way, with the cooperation of nearly five thousand giant bees, Hua Mi felt a supporting force strong enough to resist gravity from the soles of her feet.
So he slowly raised his other foot and let the remaining giant bees attach to it to exert force.
Stepping on two "black clouds", the body slowly lifted into the air.
One centimeter, two centimeters...ten centimeters, twenty centimeters...
"Successful!"
The soles of Hua Mi's feet were about twenty centimeters off the ground.
But he was not happy for long. The next second, his body suddenly swayed.
A slight imbalance can interrupt his concentration, and then negative feedback further aggravates the imbalance. The whole person suddenly falls forward and falls into the mud.
"It's still a bit difficult to exert force only from the soles of the feet. It's difficult to master the balance..."
Don’t be too anxious when you first start practicing.
It's like learning to ride a bicycle. You'll probably fall badly if you get on two wheels at the beginning.
You can consider adding two training wheels for early practice.
When talking about the parts of the human body used to maintain balance, the first thing that comes to mind is undoubtedly the two arms.
So Hua Mi separated one-third of the giant bees and attached them to both arms respectively. Their main function was to maintain balance.
The rest is still attached to the sole of the foot to exert force.
"It should be stable this time."
Hua Mi concentrated on controlling the swarm, opened her arms, and slowly rose off the ground.
