Time passed slowly, and this was definitely the longest battle they had ever fought.

Huo Ling's superpower was more than half depleted, and Lin Shuangshuang's pollution level soared to 85%, before Huo Ling captured her again.

The little monsters have combat genes in their genes. War is the instinct of humanoid weapons. After all, they were born to fight, and this is something they cannot avoid.

Huo Ling had no choice but to force the machine to shut down, keeping Lin Shuangshuang close to him. "Your pollution level is rising too fast. Control it and behave yourself."

Lin Shuangshuang was panting, her eyes sparkling, her heart itching to fight again, but her boyfriend wouldn't let her, so she could only suppress the urge to fight.

"Where are Rona and the others?"

Lin Shuangshuang subconsciously looked for her teammates. On the battlefield, she would pay attention to the positioning and safety of each teammate, but she didn't really care about her own life. Otherwise, Su Yu wouldn't have taught her a lesson back then.

Even though she's no longer the captain, she still does it habitually.

Huo Ling told her about the positions of Luo Na and the other two, "Xiao Zhe should have been covering for you."

However.

The little monster is too fierce.

Wu Zhe couldn't keep up even if he wanted to, so he could only cooperate with Luo Na and the others.

Lin Shuangshuang awkwardly touched her nose, but then touched her face mask. She withdrew her hand, saying, "I'm used to being alone. I'm sorry."

Huo Ling knew without asking what kind of person she used to be; she would definitely leave the safe position to her teammates and charge forward recklessly on her own.

No wonder he has so many scars.

Huo Ling reached out and tapped Lin Shuangshuang on the head, "Don't rush around so recklessly next time."

Lin Shuangshuang obediently replied, "Okay."

He used very little force, it didn't hurt at all, and his tone was full of concern.

The little monster always gets the best things from Huo Ling.

Huo Ling treated her very well.

Rona and the other two were eventually summoned back, and Huo Ling used the puppet bees as shields for them, giving them a brief respite.

Wu Zhe was so tired he wanted to sit on the ground, but the sweat evaporated before it even touched the ground.

How could I possibly dare to sit down?

He could only support himself on his knees, bend over, pant heavily, and sweat pour down his face.

Huo Ling gave him Zhao Pingsheng's medicine, a summer-cooling remedy, and gave it to him to drink.

Rona swallowed hard and quickly said, "Captain Huo, if you give us your share, what about you? Keep a few bottles for yourself."

"Yeah, Brother Huo, keep some for yourself, we still have some." Gao Lei also wiped his sweat, which had soaked his mask. It was wet and then dried, then wet again, leaving a layer of white sweat stains on it.

Huo Ling handed the two bottles of medicine to them, saying, "I don't need them. I don't expend as much energy as you two. You can keep them for yourselves."

Lin Shuangshuang still had some in her pocket, and she wanted to take it out too, but Huo Ling wouldn't let her.

Huo Ling told them not to refuse, that business was more important. "The Reed Squad has already suffered casualties, and Yao Liang's Squad won't be able to hold out for much longer. The number of killer bees has decreased slightly, but their paths are still unclear."

He focused his gaze on the distance.

After being given a bottle of heatstroke medicine, Wu Zhe recovered and thanked Huo Ling. Then he asked, "Then, what about Yang Zijie's team? They still haven't made a move. Haven't they found the hive yet? And there's been no news from Brother Hong Wu either."

After drinking the potion, Luo Na and Gao Lei couldn't help but nod. "Yes, neither of their teams has made any moves." "The pressure is all on us."

There were some messages coming back at first, but now there's been absolutely no news.

It's a bit strange.

Huo Ling used his psychic abilities to investigate, then frowned and said, "Hong Wu and his group are still on the outskirts, their location hasn't changed. Yang Zijie's team can become invisible as a group, so they can't be seen with the naked eye or detected by psychic abilities. We can't get their coordinates for now."

This is troublesome.

Gao Lei worriedly asked, "Will they take the opportunity to kill the queen bee and escape?"

After all, the queen bee offers such generous rewards.

It's increased several times over.

Lin Shuangshuang shook her head, "Their team doesn't have that capability."

She had investigated and found that most of the members of their team were at the fifth level, with only two or three at slightly higher levels. It was impossible for them to quietly eliminate the queen bee and escape with her corpse; they weren't that capable.

Huo Ling analyzed meticulously, "The worst-case scenario is that they successfully discovered the entrance to the hive, but were already killed."

Although the Yangtze River team is picky about tasks, losing a team in the current situation is detrimental to their entire bee eradication team.

After finishing his sentence, Huo Ling added, "Not necessarily, this is just the worst-case scenario."

Lorna was a little worried. "What should we do? There are still quite a few of these bees."

They were almost out of strength.

Once the lower-level bee swarm has exhausted their physical and supernatural abilities, wouldn't the queen bee be able to swallow them whole?

Huo Ling said, "We need to adjust our strategy. I tried sending a few puppet bees to scout ahead, but they all died instantly. Obviously, the hive is a closely guarded secret. This trick won't work. We have to scout ahead manually."

Lorna's concerns are valid. The queen bee will not pity her offspring, after all, she can produce countless more. She will use defense bees to wear them down, and once they are exhausted, she will catch them like turtles in a jar.

Coincidentally.

In the team's voice channel, Hong Wu's somewhat frightened voice came through: "These bee swarms are strange. I'm not the one stopping them now, but it feels like they're toying with us. Do killer bees have such high intelligence?" His tone was filled with deep fear.

What?!

[Could you please repeat this again? Do you have any healing-type ability users on your team? Many of my teammates are injured, and some can't hold on any longer!]

Luwei and Yao Liang were panting heavily, their voices filled with anxiety.

Everyone's mentality is about to collapse.

This task was more difficult than expected, gradually wearing down one's willpower.

"Calm down, don't panic. Just do what you're supposed to do." Huo Ling's cold voice rang out, pouring cold water on the three of them.

If the team leader can't even keep a calm mindset, it will only make his subordinates more panicked.

Hong Wu, Lu Wei, and Yao Liang all shuddered violently; despite the scorching sun, their backs involuntarily turned cold.

The three of them indicated that they understood.

After Huo Ling woke the three of them up, they discussed their strategy again. "The current tactics are not working on them. The queen bee is up to something else. The only good thing is that they don't understand human language and can only calculate the outcome based on our tactics. What we need to do now is to re-plan our battle strategy."

Lin Shuangshuang remained calm throughout, never panicking, and added, "The Yangzi Jie team has lost contact, and we now only have four teams left."

It's unclear what the other party's current situation is; are they a werewolf or a villager?

Lorna couldn't help but rub her arms. "With the addition of this uncertain factor, the situation has suddenly become so complicated! This task is a bit tricky."
