Chapter 6: Encounter with the Bees
This skill is really ruthless, one-third of the blood volume just disappeared like that.
I immediately swallowed the red potion and swung a combo slash at it! The two blades cut deeply into its abdomen, and to my surprise, two impressive numbers burst out!
“490！549！”
Looks like I hit your weak spot this time!
I was overjoyed, and with a quick turn I moved to its side, before it could follow my movement with its body, a backhand strike landed on the end of its belly!
Suddenly, a green **emerged, and it painfully buzzed loudly!
“1202！”
I'm so happy I can barely speak, a 3000 HP worker bee was actually knocked down by over 2000 HP in just three hits!
However, the jungle carpenter bee was also furious and changed color, swinging its tail and stabbing its stinger mercilessly into my chest!
At this moment, numbness struck again!
"Ding Dong!" System Prompt: "You have been attacked by the Jungle Worker Bee's [Bee Sting]! You will lose 23 HP every 2 seconds for 10 seconds!"
Right after that, when I launched another attack, the Jungle Wasp unexpectedly dodged with extraordinary agility and counterattacked again!
"55!" My HP suddenly dropped to a quarter! The situation is precarious!
At this time, struggling again would only lead to collapse, so I greased the soles of my feet and ran!
However, greed makes me not dare to run too fast, because if I do, the hatred will be pulled away and it would all be for nothing.
It's okay, I used to be a practitioner, this situation is not the first time I've encountered it, and grasping it is still relatively easy.
So I decided to play hide-and-seek around a big tree, the diameter of which was about 4 or 5 meters, just the right distance for revenge.
The angry buzzing of this worker bee can't be stopped and there's no way it can hit me.
Seizing the opportunity that had come to me, I counter-attacked and ran around to its back. With a fierce swing of my dagger, I struck at the joint of its waist!
"Rip!" A tearing sound, the body of the Jungle Wasp was split in two, a green insect fluid gushing out, an astonishing damage number bursting out!
"Blitzkrieg 1902!"
The Jungle Bee crashed and died!
Wiped the sweat from his face, took a look at his own experience bar, and was delighted to find that this strong monster had actually increased his experience by 11%! What concept is this! Killing nine of them would almost be enough to level up! However, after eating the experience of this worker bee, he was already at level 6 with 56% experience, and killing two more would be enough.
But when I picked up the coins that had fallen to the ground, I was overjoyed. The copper coins fell generously, with more than sixty pieces scattered all over the place, taking me a good half day to pick them up. And on the ground, there was even a leather glove that had been dropped.

What? Another shell! Today's RP is really good!
But then I thought about it, no! Although the village of Erslan is small, it is divided into four directions: east, south, west and north. Each direction leads to a clear leveling area. As introduced in the "Holy War" data, at the beginning of the game, equipment drops are relatively regular and geographical. The Lost Jungle is obviously a place where low-level leather armor drops, a paradise for scouts and leather professions!
However, it is clear that there are not just one of these jungle bees here. As I get closer to the inside of the Lost Jungle, the number of worker bees begins to increase.
I'm not stupid, so I started playing hide-and-seek with these worker bees. As a result, the consumption of medicine has decreased sharply, and it takes about three bees to kill one bottle of medicine.
I don't dare to go back to the village again, because before level 10 and getting a formal job, I am not qualified to buy and use the return scroll. If I run back to buy medicine and then come back, the most precious leveling time will be delayed.
So, let's just kill the worker bees here, and level up quickly!
Moreover, the drop rate of strengthened monsters apparently satisfied me. After killing the fourth one, not only did I reach level 7, but also exploded out a leather shoulder armor.

……
The equipment settings of "Holy War" are not much different from other online games. Its equipment division is as follows: defensive gear includes: upper body, thigh guards, arm guards, shoulder armor, shoes and cloak. Accessories include: helmet, belt, ring, necklace. Weapons include single-handed weapons and double-handed weapons. The attributes attached to any equipment are also different, which may not be so detailed at the beginning, but become more obvious later on.
Shoulder armor, gloves and shoes are the three small pieces of defensive gear. Their basic attributes are all the same, but later on, after unsealing the seal holes, there will be big differences.
……
I'm happily grinding monsters here, slowly approaching the deepest part of the Lost Woods. At this time, a vast open space has appeared around me, and in the center of the open space is a huge depression. A gigantic beehive with a diameter of about 5-6 meters appears before my eyes, leaving me utterly shocked!
The hive is covered with a layer of regular hexagonal cells, only each cell is enlarged to an unknown multiple of the normal honeycomb, and bees keep emerging from inside.
My heart is racing, after this road of continuous chopping and hacking, I have already worn a full set of lost armor on my body. This armor has everything except for the cloak. Although my current level is only 9% of level 1, my attributes have undergone great changes.

……
Not to mention, when I was a beginner, wearing all white iron equipment was really durable. Now even if a worker bee hits me, my blood loss is only in single digits, it feels like I'm almost invincible.
So I let loose and circled around this giant beehive, strangling it.
However, upgrading from level 9 to level 10 is really too much trouble, the required experience is even three times that of leveling up from 8 to 9!
It seems that perhaps the system has given everyone a little problem to take care of their formal career.
And also, because of my high level, even a strengthened worker bee can only give me less than 1% experience, which is really unacceptable for me.
In this case, I have no choice but to consider whether I should move to another place.
However, at this moment, a huge tremor occurred inside the giant beehive. A super bee with a stout body and a length almost as tall as me struggled to crawl out of a cell!
I won't look if I don't have to, but once I take a glance, I'm shocked. OK, buddy's not leaving, he's staying here to fight it out with this guy.

Rank: Ordinary BOSS
Level: 12
Blood Volume: 30,000
Physical Attack: 93~98

BOSS Introduction: The king of bees lost in the jungle, relying on eating its own subordinates to provide nectar for a living.
……
What a big deal! Seeing this guy, I seem to see the experience of Bai Hua Hua and the equipment that is about to be obtained.
But this guy's attack power is really astonishing, breaking through my defense is simply effortless. However, fortunately I now have 270 health points, and it's still quite difficult to kill me instantly.
However, there are two problems in front of me - first, there is a large group of bees around, and a small number of worker bees. I have to lure it out without attracting other worker bees. Second, after luring it out, where can I fight with it without being disturbed by others? This place isn't just for me to level up alone, players will rush in at any time, and once they see me killing the BOSS, won't they try to kill me too? What if I run into a gang of thugs who must kill me and steal the BOSS?
So, I not only have to safely pull out this BOSS, but also think of a way to prevent those players from coming in. What I'm doing is absolutely not because I'm sinister, all these years of gaming and work experience have taught me that sometimes, people must leave some room for themselves, can't be too honest!
My mind was racing, and I quickly pulled out a giant bee stinger from my backpack. This quest item could finally be put to use! After all, in "Holy War", quest items can be stacked, and I had already stored 30 bee stingers - using up half of them would be enough to complete the task!
I took another look at the terrain. The place I came in was a narrow pass, and the exit was also narrow, only two or three meters wide.
Going back is absolutely not an option, so I can only move forward. Moreover, the beehive is still constantly spewing out worker bees, and as long as I can successfully pull out the queen bee, those worker bees will naturally become my shield. Hmph, I don't believe there's any smaller account that can rival me at this stage!
I immediately slipped away and walked to the front intersection, swung the bee sting in my hand, took aim, and threw it forcefully at the bee's back!
The bee stinger shot out like a sharp javelin and pierced the belly of the beekeeper with precision!
“202！”
Although the damage was not great, the bee queen had already eaten pain and quickly crawled towards me. I was quite surprised. This guy may look fat, but he can run really fast!
What surprised me was that those worker bees were so nonchalant, they didn't even chase after me!
However, I was still depressed to find that in front of me was a vast open space and not even one big tree could be found! In this case, the encircling tactics I originally planned to use against the bees were impossible to implement.
But anyway, since I have no way to go around in circles anymore, I might as well just compete with you!
I opened my backpack and unfortunately found that I only had eight bottles of red medicine left! If I were to fight the queen bee, not only would these few bottles of medicine be useless, but I'm afraid I'd also have to give up my life...
