The black shadow in the sky in the direction of the Blue Mountains gradually grew larger and seemed to be approaching us.
"What is that? No way, a wyvern?"
"No, but it's dangerous and you can't undo the wall."
The thieves ignored the commotion around the carriage and noticed us looking in the other direction, and began to turn their gaze in the direction of Mount Buller.
And the black shadow approaching in the blink of an eye is not a single creature, but a group.
"Run! Killer Bee!"
"Stop, help me gyaaaa!"
That huge black shadow is a swarm of giant bees.
The bright green and black striped body must exceed 30 cm.
He started attacking the robber with his strong jaw and the poisonous needle in his butt.
"Shoot, shoot, shoot down!"
"Eat, eat, Ugiaaaaah"
Killer Bee was also burned to the ground when he was hit by the magic bullet, but when Rogue was stung by the poisonous needle, he gradually slowed down and collapsed.
In addition to this, it seems that the magic gun is actually increasing the damage, such as killing each other regardless of the direction, and accidentally exceeding the endurance limit.
"Killer bees are carnivorous and have powerful stingers on their tails. If you are stung, they cannot move. If you break them, the smell will excite your comrades and drive them crazy."
The huge buzzing of the wings dug out the fundamental fear from deep within the body.
Killer hornets swarmed over the fallen bandit and began tearing the body apart.
Wasps turn their prey into meatballs and carry them back to their nests, but killer bees are rougher.
From elbow to elbow, from elbow to shoulder, the joints were torn apart and then carried away.
The torso was also chopped into pieces big enough to take home and flown away.
In less than 10 minutes, the human being was torn into pieces and brought back.
"Shul, if you use the crushing magic circle"
"No, don't touch it and it will disappear after a while, so do your best to maintain the wall until then"
Even Shure, who was calm when dealing with the thieves, had a nervous look on his face.
It seems that if the killer bees are able to escape from the first attack, they will focus on gathering food and stop attacking.
Indeed, the killer bees came back with the meat, so the noise around them became a little quieter.
In addition to maintaining the wall, there is less energy left to use. Instead of getting excited and messing around, it is better to wait for it to pass.
Sit on the bridge, close your eyes, and concentrate on maintaining the wall.
After a while, Schuler left the driver's stall.
It seemed that they were checking the area around the carriage.
A craftsman from the furniture workshop also got off the cargo bed. I heard his voice, as if he was looking around.
After checking the surrounding situation, Shure called him.
"Everyone, get back on the carriage and let's go! Hua Wuming, you can release the wall."
"I understand, I cancel."
"Haig, bring the carriage out and slow down."
"Do you understand it"
Haig gave the order and the carriage started slowly.
There was blood all over the highway, but neither the robbers nor the killer bees could see it.
Schuller stood quietly for a moment, observing what was going on, but when he picked me up he sat down on the coachman's platform.
"Haig, you can run normally. Good job, Hua Wuming."
"Haha, I'm really tired for some reason."
"If Hua Wuming is not here, the situation will be very difficult. There are many bandits there, and they use magic guns.
Haig nodded after hearing Schuler's words.
"Well, I was about to give up when the first fireball came."
"Hagrid, it's still early"
"Even so, it's amazing. This is a virtual attribute that even thieves and even killer bees can't approach."
"Yes, they say it's empty, but I think it's more amazing than any other property."
"Yes, Hua Wuming is super, super, super talented."
As the carriage began to move at normal speed, away from the point of attack, I felt the tension in my body relax a little.
"I didn't even realize it, but it seemed like I was nervous."
After the carriage had been driving for about an hour, we took a rest by the river.
This is a transit point between Nakot and the neighboring city of Luga Island.
The families of Viscount Lagato and Marquis Escalante jointly own the Cavalier Police Department.
So far, this is the territory of Viscount Lagato, and from now on it will be the territory of Marquis Escalante.
When Haig stopped the carriage, the hatch was flung open and Bolz got out.
"So, is it possible that it could be leaked?"
"Hua Wuming, Hua Wuming! Thank you, you did a great job."
"D.Thank you"
Bolz bent down to look me in the eye, shook his hands and thanked me.
"I heard about it from Shure, but to be honest, I was dubious. But it's awesome! I never thought I could get over it, being attacked by bandits, being killed, without sacrificing anything. Bee attack.”
When Shuler and I reported to the knights, Bolz's praises continued, and even the knight in charge had a wry smile on his face.
Hearing that a magic gun was used in the attack, and there was also an attack from killer bees, the knight in charge looked gloomy.
"I have a bad feeling that killer bees will appear at this time."
"What do you mean?"
When I asked the friendly-looking Ursine knight, he explained why.
"Typically, damage caused by killer bees occurs primarily in late spring and summer when new nests are being established."
"If there is damage at this time, it means that a new nest has been built, right?"
"Yes, but usually no new nests are built at this time, so if a nest is built, it is likely that the original nest will be destroyed. There has been no major earthquake recently, and landslides are likely to occur." It wasn't raining very much. big. There are only a few things in nature that can destroy a killer bee nest."
"Are you a flying dragon?"
The Ursine Knight nodded.
Wyverns are also resistant to killer bee poison, feed on the killer bees themselves, and apparently enjoy eating their larvae.
"There haven't been any sightings yet so it's not certain yet, but you should be careful on your way home."
"But if there's a sudden attack, there's no way to be careful."
"Hahaha, that's true, but there are also cases where someone impulsively escapes from under the carriage and is rescued. Be sure to pay attention to the people above."
"Yes I will"
The carriage left the stop and drove smoothly towards Deer Island.
As usual, Schuler continued to monitor the front, his expression blank, but looking a little happy.
“What’s there to see in Deer Island?”
"No. However, now that the raid has ended safely, we can look forward to additional rewards for this escort."
"is that so?"
"Escort work is a basic expense when nothing happens and is an option in the event of an attack."
"Maybe a bandit attack and a killer bee attack are different options?"
"Of course, they are separate. Since there is no damage, I will take the full amount. Hua Wuming is the correct answer."
The escort amount is much higher when the attack is repelled than when there is nothing.
This appears to be an effort to make it easier to submit requests by lowering the base amount and increasing hazard pay if something goes wrong.
Additionally, if the client is unwilling to pay, it is said that the adventurers will hate it, will not accept the escort request themselves, or will be abandoned in an emergency.
Bolz was a well-paying and trustworthy client, and many adventurers wanted to accept the request, but since his daughter Alisa came to keep him company, Schuyler seemed ostracized.
"I stopped hiring male adventurers because I was worried Alyssa would catch bad bugs, but honestly, I didn't feel strong enough"
For the time being, it seemed that the housekeeper and the maid had martial arts knowledge in addition to Shuler, but even so, there were only three of them.
It seemed that Schuler also advised them to increase their strength, but Bortesi did not shake his head.
This time, I was allowed to participate because I am a cat person with an unbalanced constitution and a low chance of becoming a bad bug, which seems to be the result of Shure's strong recommendation.
"This blow must have chilled Bortesi, who must have been acutely aware of his lack of strength.
Among the thieves who attacked me this time, none were as skilled as Leos and Shure, so I was able to protect them, but if there were people with enough attack power to break the wall, the worst would happen. It might have been closed arrive
"If my husband's obsession with young ladies gets in the way of protecting an important young lady, I think he will hire a male adventurer."
Bortsy's parents seem to be famous in the furniture workshop as idiots.
According to Haig, furniture workshop Diarco’s craftsmen’s allowances are the best in the industry, and their remuneration in addition to money is also very generous.
"If my husband or daughter are in danger, the craftsmen and I on the aircraft carrier will do our best to protect them."
The reason Bortsy looked at me with hostility or suspicion was because he was worried that I wouldn't interfere with Elisa.
"He seems to be a good workshop owner."
"Ah, my husband is a workshop man because we work together. When things go well, we laugh together, and when things are hard, I endure. This is one of my favorite quotes."
"I thought he was just a stupid parent, but Bolz seemed to be a good customer."
"For the sake of the future of the chariot, will you be willing to act as escort until it returns to Ibro?"
