Chapter 303: Killing Bear Bee
Bear Bee is one of the famous insect monsters in Firuman. Not only are they monsters that could reproduce themself, but they are also strong. A Bear Bee adult's size could reach three to four meters high with at least grade three strength.
With this kind of strength and their large number, they could easily disturb any ecosystem. It is common sense to immediately destroy the Bear Bee nest as soon as possible when someone sees it.
However, these bear bees could produce a godly delicacy despite their horrible strength and nature. They could produce a unique honey called Golden Honey that is sweet and delicious beyond imagination.
Unfortunately, like any ordinary bee, the bear bee will try to attack anyone, be it a monster or people that try to touch this precious honey.
Moreover, as territorial monsters, they will kill any living being besides them to protect their nest and Queen. Currently, Angus observes this Bear Bee nest not far from him before launching an attack.
'Hm.. This should be a small-scale Bear Bee nest since the Queen itself is still at grade four.' thought Angus while inspecting the humongous bear bee nest.
Although Angus said it is small scale, the size is comparable with his manor in the capital city. At first, he thought of burning down the whole nest. However, he couldn't do it as it would damage the Golden Honey inside it.
One of the reasons why Golden Honey is rare and fetched for a high price is that it needs a lot of effort to harvest them without damaging it. The Golden Honey couldn't withstand too high temperature or too low either.
Therefore, people couldn't use high circle spells to bombard the nest to get the Golden Honey. One of the ways to get Golden Honey is only by killing all the Bear Bees and its queen before looting the Golden Honey.
After inspecting the surroundings, Angus decides this is the best choice to get the Golden Honey. Without hesitation, Angus came out from his hiding place and flared up his mana to attract the nearby Bear Bee.
"Come on, I am here!!" yelled Angus.
Like any ordinary monster, the Bear bee is also attracted to any mana living being and tends to destroy them. As the Bear Bee comes towards Angus, he shoots a few Fireballs towards them. *Bom* *Bom* *Bom*
Some of the Bear Bee couldn't withstand the barrage of Fireballs and died on the spot. Still, there are a lot of Bear Bees that keep approaching Angus.
Keeping his calm, Angus immediately uses Multicast to cast two spells simultaneously [2nd Circle - Fire Oil] [2nd Circle - Flame Wave]. *Whoosh* A gigantic wave of fire immediately appeared in front of Angus and engulfed all the approaching Bear Bee.
Looking at the burning scene in front of Angus, 'No wonder, those pyromaniacs are like burning things. This feeling is kinda.. wonderful.' thought Angus.
While Angus fights the incoming Bear Bees, teacher Genus that is assigned to monitor Angus, couldn't help but sweat nervously.
'I know that he is a monster, but to dare to fight the whole bear bees colony on his own. This is not what students could do. I didn't dare to provoke the entire Bear Bees colony even if it is only a small scale one.' thought Teacher Genus.
"If he is in any danger, I will just grab him and run away. For now, I just need to monitor him." said teacher Genus while keeping looking at Angus slaughtering the incoming Bear Bee.
The Bear Bee is famous for its number and its individual strength. Otherwise, they will be called elite monsters for nothing. Some third-grade bear bees managed to withstand Angus's fire spell and continue charging at him madly.
Looking at this, Angus manipulates the leftover fire mana in the air and casts a spell [Firecast -? 3rd Circle - Fire Wyrm]. *Rooarr* All the fire in the surrounding area becomes one and turns into Fire Wyrm.
The Fire Wyrm deterrents any Bear Bees that approach Angus. In the meantime, Angus also starts casting his next spell under the Fire Wyrm protection.
'Hmm.. their body is strong enough to withstand any low circle level. Then, how about this one?!' thought Angus as he kept casting the spell.
After a while, a giant complex magic circle appeared in front of him and shot a gigantic ball of fire [3rd Circle - Fireblast]. Looking at the incoming Fireblast, some of the Bear Bees are trying to escape.
"Eiits… No, you don't. [Hellfire - Explode]" said Angus
*BLAARR* The gigantic Fireblast exploded and released a minor firestorm towards the surroundings. All the plantation that was engulfed by this firestorm immediately dried and burned to a crisp. This also happens to all the nearby Bear Bee.
Fortunately, Angus already cast Fire Barrier on himself to withstand the Fireblast explosion. Otherwise, even the fire will not harm his body. It will certainly burn his clothes.
"Fuhh.. the explosion from the third circle spell is really something else." said Angus.
*Roarr* At this moment, Angus heard a beast roar coming from the bear bee's nest. Large bear bees come out from the nest along with a few bear bees.
Looking at the gigantic bear bees, "So, it is the queen now. I guess it is time to get serious." said Angus
Then, Angus wielded the nearby fire mana in the air [Firecast - Fire Wyrm]. Angus summons another Fire Wyrm and flies towards the Bear Bees Queen. However, unlike the other Bear Bee, the queen only needs to swipe its thick arm to almost dissipate the Fire Wyrm.
"Hoo… As expected of a grade-four monster. This is going to become a hard fight." said Angus while shooting a few Fireballs.
*Bom* *Bom* *Bom* Series of explosions are heard from Angus' battle with the Bear Bees. This explosion attracted a lot of people.
However, they know that this is Bear Bee's territory and decide to leave it be. At the same time, some of the curious adventurers decide to check things out.
"Huff.. what a persistent monster." said Angus as he kept bombarding the Bear Bee Queen.
Angus could fight without caring about his mana and stamina with his monstrous regeneration. However, he also couldn't deal any significant damage with his current spell or explosion skill. All he does is burn the queen's thick fur a little bit and nothing more.
"Guess, I need to use Fireblast once more." said Angus.
Then, Angus starts to use Firecast to summon Fire Wyrm. Since there is much leftover fire mana in the surrounding, Angus could create two Fire Wyrm simultaneously and control them to charge at the Bear Bee Queen.
Just as the Queen wants to dissipate the Fire Wyrm, Angus explodes one of the Fire Wyrm. *BLARR* Since the Fire Wyrm contains a lot of fire mana, the explosion is also unexpectedly big. The Queen gets hurt and becomes wary of the other Fire Wyrm.
Using this opportunity, Angus immediately cast another Fireblast in front of him. Sensing the big mana Angus release, the Queen immediately tried to charge at Angus, ignoring the Fire Wyrm. At this moment, the other Fire Wyrm entangled it and exploded. *BLARR*
The Queen couldn't help but take more damage from the point-blank explosion. It even lost one of its hands. Not giving the Queen any time to breathe, Angus releases Fireblast in front of the Queen [3rd Circle - Fire Blast]. *BOOMM*
The Queen's entire body was enveloped by the Fire Blast and burned alive by its high temperature. A few seconds later, the queen becomes a motionless, dead corpse.
"Huft.. Finally, it is done. Now, time to harvest my loot." said Angus as he began to dismantle the surrounding Bear Bee and its nest.
Angus finds a few eggs and Bear Bees cub inside the nest. The Bear bee's egg and cub could be sold for a high price in the market. The egg could become a rare delicacy, while the cub could easily be tamed as familiar.
However, Angus didn't have any means to transport the cub safely. For now, he could only cast a sleeping spell towards the cubs so as not to annoy and attack him. Despite being a cub, they are already at the size of a balance ball, around half meters.
After thinking for a while, Angus decided to collect all the available things he could store first. Then, he sliced open the giant nest and found a glittering gold-colored liquid inside it.
"Ohhh.. What a nice scent." said Angus as he smelled the Golden Honey.
Without hesitation, He immediately extracted all the Golden Honey without any leftovers. While he did this, he noticed some insectoid monster attracted by the Golden Honey unique smell and came to this place.
Fortunately, some of them meet the curious adventurer and get entangled with them while others keep approaching Angus's location. Looking at the sleeping defenseless Bear Bee cub, Angus knows that these monsters will kill them if they are left alone.
"Haa… Guess I have no choice. Miss Helia, could you please come out." said Angus.
