Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Murderous Ruby Blood Bee
Jiang Yan didn't expect that just a moment of carelessness made the wrestler ape flee a distance in a panic, and it happened to cause him a lot of trouble.
With a bang, the wrestler ape running in front of him stumbled, and his huge body suddenly swooped out crookedly, slamming into a giant tree, and a large piece of residual leaves fell from the earthquake.
Then a round ball the size of a blue ball was also shaken down from the bushes, and smashed into the head of the wrestler ape, causing it to shake its head.
When Jiang Yan saw this scene, his eyes swept over the falling ball, and then his face suddenly changed greatly, and he turned around and ran without hesitation.
"Huh...... Whoa?"
The wrestler ape, which had recovered from the dizziness of the impact, felt very puzzled when it saw Jiang Yan directly give up chasing him and turn around and leave quickly.
What's going on? Why didn't he chase all of a sudden? Wait, why did he run faster and faster?
The wrestler's confusion did not last long, and some slight strange noises suddenly sounded under his feet to attract its attention.
The slight sound of Suo Suo came from his feet, and following the sound, the wrestler ape looked down and saw an orange-red ball as big as an amber at his feet, the size of his fist.
The ball looks beautiful, the amber-like texture reflects the bright orange-red brilliance in the sunlight, like a jewel, and through the surface you can also see circles of vermilion threads like blood all over the inner layer of the ball, adding a bit of bloody charm to it.
However, in nature, things that are too beautiful are often a warning sign of danger.
Without waiting for the wrestler ape to take a closer look, the amber ball shook slightly, and a shiny little thing the size of a ladybug suddenly came out of the bottom.
It turned out to be a bee worm, their appearance is a little different from ordinary bees, not like ordinary bees have a lot of hairs on the body surface, but the entire chest and abdomen are smooth as jade, showing a translucent pure color, only in the tentacles and legs can find a layer of invisible cilia. Through the transparent case, you can also vaguely see the same translucent air ducts inside, as well as the reddish internal organs and capsules.
This jade bee has a pointed head like a shuttle that is very different from ordinary bees, forming a sharp and barbed angular shape at the front, and because of its translucent body form, a thin tube can be seen in the tip that is connected to the inside of the jade bee's body.
On each side of the head is a beautiful compound eye like a ruby, reflecting a blood-colored glow in the light, and the lower part has chewing mouthparts with fine broken teeth.
The thin wings on their backs are also colorless and transparent, with only fine, barely visible blood-colored lines distributed irregularly on them, so that the wings are not completely invisible.
"Buzz-buzz-"
After burrowing out of the amber ball, these translucent jade bees spread their wings and flew up, directly towards the wrestler ape, who was still a little confused, and when it landed on its skin, it decisively raised its little head like a shuttle, lowered its head and stabbed it fiercely.
It can be seen that the spikes on the heads of these jade bees are terrifyingly sharp, and the skin of the alien beast that ordinary mosquitoes can't bite is easily pierced, just like tissue paper being drilled through and failing to play the slightest obstructive role.
Then I saw a trace of rich blood quickly spread out along the spikes that the jade bees had pierced, and flowed into their bodies along the pipes. Within a few seconds, the originally translucent bodies of dozens of jade bees all over the body surface of the wrestler ape were filled with blood red.
Look at this appearance, these little guys are actually sucking blood!
"Roar——?!!
The situation happened so quickly that after the painful and numb feeling that came from all over his body, the wrestler ape suddenly woke up, roared in pain, and subconsciously raised his hand to slap down on these jade bees on his body.
The heavy hitting sound could be heard when the big slap of the pu fan was slapped, but when the wrestler ape removed his palm, he found that the jade bees had not been slapped to pieces as he had imagined.
Their jade-like bodies have an astonishing hardness, and none of them died, and the jade bees that were slapped by a palm were just stiffly slapped flat by it and embedded into the muscles, and after a few struggles, they regained their mobility, but instead bit directly at the surrounding muscles.
The wrestler's act of resistance seemed to infuriate the little things, and as the buzzing sound of flapping wings came out one after another, more and more jade bees came out of the amber ball, and the number was dense, and from a distance, it seemed like a pale red dust mist enveloped the wrestler ape.
The swarm unceremoniously launched a fierce attack on the whole body of the wrestler ape, some used spikes to suck blood, some directly used their mouthparts to bite and gnaw its flesh, and many jade bees looked for the wound on the right arm of the wrestler ape that was cut out by Jiang Yan and drilled into its flesh and blood, and gnawed its body from the body.
"Whoa——!!
The taste of ten thousand bees devouring one's body is comparable to a thousand cuts, and the endless pain and torture makes Lux Ape want to go crazy.
It ran wildly to try to get rid of the swarm, but apparently to no avail, and after running a dozen steps, it collapsed to the ground and rolled around struggling, its mouth roaring with all its might, and then gradually turned into a bitter howl.
The wrestler's open mouth caused the swarm to find another direction to attack, its sound suddenly stopped, and one after another jade bees burrowed into its mouth, passing through its throat and gnawing and destroying everything they thought it could attack.
After only a dozen seconds, the wrestler ape that fell to the ground gradually lost its voice, leaving only the scalp-numbing swarm of bees still maintaining the form of wrapping it, constantly rolling and winding.
The terrible thing is that even if the body of the wrestler ape is gnawed by them, there is not much blood flowing out and spilling on the ground, most of it is sucked up before it can flow out of the body surface, and even if there are occasional drips on the ground, there will immediately be jade bees flying over to collect it like feeding on nectar.
Jiang Yan, who had already run out of a range of more than 500 meters, finally stopped, leaned his back against a tree, turned his head and looked back silently.
Jiang Yan shuddered a little when he saw that the jade bee that had gradually become like blood jade was still wrapped around the corpse of the wrestler ape, and the flesh and blood of that alien beast were picked as nectar to the fullest.
Ruby blood bee is a social swarm insect beast that operates in tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands.
They have a wide range of diets, usually like ordinary bees will feed on plant pollen and nectar, but also prey on other insects and some small animals as daily food, and when it comes to the need to store nutrients to reproduce the offspring of the population, they will show the ferocious force of foreign beasts, directly attack large animals in groups, and even hunt other foreign beasts.
Although the size of the red jade blood bee is not large, the combat power of a single one is much higher than that of most ordinary insects, and just a few of them can single-handedly pick up an entire hornet's nest of ordinary hornets.
Their body structure makes them resistant to most threats, and their horde mode of action combined with their pervasive miniature size makes it difficult for many prey to escape unless they have fully enclosed armor with excellent defense, or can use a wide range of covered attacks.
Alien beasts with the strength of the Heavenly Realm after leisure, if there is no means to restrain them, it will be very dangerous to be targeted.
If a human accidentally provokes this kind of ruby blood bee in the wild, or is unfortunately targeted by them during the breeding period, then it is best for him to escape into the water before being completely surrounded, and then hope that he can hold on until the patience of the red jade blood bee who does not like to enter the water is exhausted, otherwise he will most likely end up being gnawed into a skeleton.
Encountering this kind of murderous creature in the depths of this dark wood, Jiang Yan really didn't expect it.
If he hadn't reacted quickly enough to recall the relevant information from the database after seeing their distinctive hives, and then immediately turned around and evacuated, he would probably have been targeted by the ruby blood bees that had triggered the killing of his own nest just like the Lux ape.
Wait...... Damn, that should have been mine!!'
Through the super vision of the black iron eagle in the sky, Jiang Yan clearly saw that a red jade blood bee had emerged from the body of the wrestler ape, and on its leg it was also holding a dark red pill the size of a dragon's eye.
Jiang Yan recognized it at a glance, it was his original goal of chasing and killing the wrestler ape, the beast pill that belonged to the ape-shaped beast, and now that the wrestler ape had been killed, this thing naturally became the trophy of the red jade blood bees.
The red jade blood bee didn't feel the slightest difficulty in grasping the beast pill that was larger than its size, and flew back to the nest steadily, and got into it out of nowhere.
Jiang Yan was naturally very unwilling to do this, but there was no good way for a while.
Just two or three minutes later, Jiang Yan saw from a distance that the swarm of bees gathered together had dispersed, and the original sturdy wrestler ape on the ground had disappeared, and only a pair of smooth skeletons remained in place.
The red jade blood bees, which were originally almost colorless and translucent, had all become full at this moment, and their bodies were blood-red, looking like they had eaten a lot of blood.
Such a ferocious scene is truly terrifying, terrifying!
