161.3 Battle of Bees

"Haha, congratulations, Flying Mantis, you are this..."

Jiang Xiao gave Flying Mantis a thumbs up and did not hesitate to praise him.

"Kaba~~"

The Flying Mantis nodded coldly, but Jiang Xiao could still see a hint of excitement flashing through its eyes.

Don't look at the upgrade from lv30 to lv31. Although the level is only improved by one level, the strength of Flying Mantis can be said to have increased dramatically.

The individual value of speed and physical attack reaches D- level, and the individual value of physical defense and special defense reaches E+ level.

The individual HP value is E-level, and the individual special attack value is E-level. From these data, we can see how strong the Flying Mantis is.

Looking at the skills of Flying Mantis, most of them have reached a very high level of proficiency.

Especially for skills such as sword dance, continuous slashing, and lightning flash, the proficiency level is about to reach full proficiency, and the skills can be used with ease.

"Gulu~~"

After Die Xiaodie flew around the Flying Mantis, she nodded with satisfaction.

You are worthy of being the number one pawn in Bendie Hall. Your strength is only slightly weaker than Bendie. From now on, the mission of protecting the master will be left to you, gu lo~~

"Kaba~~"

Flying Mantis glanced at Die Xiaodie, and the sickle in his hand flashed with a cold light.

If they weren't still in the secret realm, Flying Mantis would challenge Die Xiaodie's position.

In the eyes of Flying Mantis, the strongest elf is the master's strongest pony.

It, the Flying Mantis is not willing to be inferior to others!

"Gulu~~"

Hearing this, Die Xiaodie flew to Jiang Xiao's head angrily, scratched Jiang Xiao angrily, and said bluntly that it was difficult to lead the team, gurgle~~

Jiang Xiao couldn't help but smile bitterly. It was Flying Mantis who offended you. Why are you taking offense at me?

Although he cursed in his heart, he really didn't dare to say these words. He could only comfort him and send the Flying Mantis out to guard the surroundings.

"It's already noon, and we happen to be having a picnic near this lake. Three Bees and Flying Mantis, you go find some ingredients."

"Kaba~~", "Beep~~"

After receiving Jiang Xiao's order, Flying Mantis and Three Bees flew around.

"Die Xiaodie, go catch some fish. Let's eat fish balls and thick noodles for lunch." Then Jiang Xiao said to Die Xiaodie again.

"Gulu~~"

Die Xiaodie flew up from Jiang Xiao's head and flew towards the lake not far away.

Along the way, the elves wandering nearby glanced at Die Xiaodie warily. After finding that there was no danger, they started to mind their own business.

"It's scary~~"

The Chongdianbao stood at Jiang Xiao’s feet and shouted anxiously. What’s its mission? It’s scary~~

"Haha, Chongdianbao, I will never forget you, let's make a fire together!"

Jiang Xiao touched the head of Chongdianbao, then turned around and took it to search for suitable stones. He wanted to build a simple stone stove.

………………

The Flying Mantis and the Three Bees received Jiang Xiao's order and each chose a direction to fly. The Flying Mantis chose the mountain forest to the south.

The south was the direction they came from. Flying Mantis remembered that there was an entrance to the lake over there, and there were some Slowpoke living nearby.

Once upon a time, the Flying Mantis followed Jiang Xiao and ate the delicious Slow Beast Tail, so when Jiang Xiao said he was looking for food, he set his sights on it.

Slowpoke is similar to the ordinary animal gecko, and both have the ability to escape by cutting off their tails.

Slowpoke's tails are special body tissues on their bodies. Once they encounter an attack intensity that reaches a threshold, they will choose to cut off their tails to escape.

There is a prop on the market, the Slowpoke tail, which is a combat prop that can attract the opponent's attention. When fighting Pokémon, there is a high probability that you can escape.

A Slowpoke with its tail cut off can quickly grow its tail as long as it eats enough food and obtains energy.

It is also because of this characteristic that there are companies on the market that specialize in Slowpoke tails.

"Kaba~~"

The Flying Mantis passed through a forest, and the sound of clear springs came one after another. Soon the Flying Mantis saw a gurgling stream.

On both sides of the bank near the entrance to the lake, pink Slowpoke beasts were lying on the shore, extending their tails into the water and looking at the water with dull eyes.

Jiang Taigong fishing, whoever is willing to take the bait!

This group of Slowpoke also uses their tails to catch clams, just to see if the big-tongued clam will take the bait.

By biting a Slowpoke's tail, they can fuse and evolve into a Slowpoke.

The flying mantis landed on the shore, observing the enemy's situation to determine whether it could attack.

"Kaba~~"

After making sure everything was fine, Flying Mantis rushed forward with a flash of lightning, targeting a Slowpoke that stood up from the ground.

A sharp cold light streaked across the void.

At the same time, to the east of the big lake, there are sparse forests. There is a mountain to the east, the big lake to the west, and a fruit forest in the middle.

Small red, purple, white, or blue flowers bloomed in the orchard, and a faint floral fragrance attracted the three bees to fly here.

Looking at the fruit trees in the orchard, some fruits are already hanging on the trees, some are blooming, and some fruits are already exuding ripe fruit fragrance.

"beep beep~~"

Three Bees beeped excitedly.

After getting excited, Three Bees flew towards the fruit forest, thinking about bringing back the fruit. Jiang Xiao's face turned slightly red as she praised her.

"Whizzing!!"

But as soon as the three bees approached the fruit forest, two claws filled with cold light grabbed the three bees.

"beep beep~~"

Sanbee yelled in panic, and his body instinctively gathered a large amount of insect attribute energy in front of him, and then used the insect resistance skill.

Insect Resistance: Resist and attack the opponent, reducing the opponent's special attack by 1 level.

The claw shadow slashed in front of the three bees, but was blocked by the insect's resistance, and then a shock wave knocked the owner of the claw shadow away.

Three Bees looked at Xuan La across from them in panic, and made a beeping cry of panic.

This is the first real battle between three bees since she was born. In the past, it was the queen bee who trained her in Amber City.

Now that there was a sudden battle, San Bee suddenly didn't know what to do.

Looking at the panicked Three Bees opposite, Xuan La was a little confused.

Ever since it occupied this fruit forest, no elf has ever been able to block its sneak attack.

This three-bee is obviously a novice, why can it block its splitting skills?

Soon, Xuan La gave up thinking and burst out with all his speed, turning into a bolt of lightning and appearing in front of Three Bees in the blink of an eye.

The fierce claws emitted a cold light and slashed hard at the three bees' faces.

"beep beep~~"

Three Bees closed their eyes in panic, and a terrifying flight attribute energy burst out, causing a terrifying strong wind to rise around Three Bees.

Before Xuan La's claws could hit Three Bees, they were blown away by the wind.

"Beep?!"

Sanbee waited for a long time, but there was still no pain in her body, so she opened her eyes carefully, but did not find Xuan La who was attacking her.

Sanbee was a little confused, where was Xuan Laren?Why don't you attack me?

Three Bees circled in the air several times, and after failing to find Xuan La, they set their sights on the fruit trees, and then quickly flew in.

Soon, the three bees flew out of the orchard carrying a large amount of tree fruits and some tree fruit honey.

"Huanla!!"

Seeing the three bees leaving, Xuan La shouted fiercely, licked the wounds on his body, turned around and disappeared into the orchard.
