Chapter 1029: Takeoff
At 7 a.m. on Bee Head Star, the morning glow just passed, a thin layer of mist lay over the grass and tree branches on the ground. Swarms of Black Thorn Bees whistled by, ignoring the mist entirely, crashing into the low vegetation, with a loud whooshing sound.
Dewdrops fell pattering, and at the same time, the branches and leaves of the plants were crushed to pieces.
At this moment, a net silently descended upon the speeding bee swarm. Once the net touched the swarm, an orderly troop of bees suddenly erupted into a small-scale panic, and the net was torn to shreds amid the chaos...
Witnessing all this, Yue Qiyuan, Chu Jiaojiao, and the others shook their heads. Yue Qiyuan said in a deep voice, "It’s not working."
Chu Jiaojiao seemed slightly disappointed, "It didn’t work."
Yue Qiguang, however, didn’t show much reaction. With an expression that suggested he had expected this, he said, "Dad knew it wouldn’t work. Iron Pear Wood Silk? Just this ordinary material, trying to withstand a Star Beast army? Dream on."
After speaking, Yue Qiguang casually sat on the sofa in the control room, propped up one foot, and said, "These level 1 small trash, Dad can go out in a Mecha and slaughter a large patch."
Ji You didn’t listen to these dispiriting words; she was contemplating with her eyes half-closed.
Shen Changqing said softly, "It’s not that the net doesn’t work, the material is the issue. It’s too brittle for a bee swarm."
Just now, when the bee-catching net was thrown out according to Ji You’s plan, it filtered out the adult bees, leaving only the juvenile ones. However, the swarm was too enormous, with too many Black Thorn Bees, rendering the bee-catching net almost powerless.
Although Iron Pear Wood is a plant with exceptionally high toughness and flexibility, known as natural steel, it was truly no match for such a massive swarm.
Ji You opened her eyes and said, "It’s not only the net’s material; there was also a slight timing issue when casting it. Also, I think we can change our approach. How about retracting the net immediately after throwing it?"
