Lin Huang progressed smoothly in the second half of the Secret Forest.
It was not because the checkpoint on the 55th checkpoint was easy. It was because Lin Huang's territory and Divine Telekinesis detection were much more advantageous when they were not suppressed. Hence, he managed to avoid many fatal dangers.
The Mighty Ape carried Lin Huang on its back. Under Lin Huang's guidance, they did not encounter any obstacles along the way.
When it was almost four in the afternoon, the human and the beast finally passed through the coverage of the Secret Forest.
The moment the Mighty Ape leaped out of the Secret Forest with a branch, Lin Huang's expression changed. He recalled the Mighty Ape back into its card form before its body size returned to normal.
In the next second, his body size returned to its original state.
As soon as he landed on the ground, he immediately crouched and hid in the bushes. He hid his aura as much as he could and looked through the gaps of the bushes at the thing that made his expression change.
It was a gigantic black Hornet's Nest that was less than 300 meters away from where he was hiding.
After probing with his powerful Divine Telekinesis for a while, Lin Huang finally relaxed his eyebrows. "It's an abandoned Hornet's Nest. That gave me a fright."
He recalled the Mighty Ape earlier because he noticed the Hornet's Nest that was terrifyingly close at first glance. Once the Mighty Ape returned to its original size, it would definitely become a target for the Combat Hornetdemons in the Hornet's Nest.
Fortunately, the Hornet's Nest had been abandoned. After probing with his Divine Telekinesis, there was not a single Combat Hornetdemon inside. Lin Huang was relieved.
In reality, the Hornet's Nest was not a threat to Lin Huang. However, he did not like to fight passively.
Compared to being surrounded by the Combat Hornetdemons as soon as he stepped onto the 56th checkpoint, he preferred to attack the Hornet's Nest after he was fully prepared. He wanted to take control of the entire battle.
Looking away from the abandoned Hornet's Nest, Lin Huang began to sense the movement within the coverage of his territory. He extended his Divine Telekinesis and overlapped it with his territory. Everything within a four-kilometer radius was no longer a secret to him. It was as if he was looking at everything within the coverage of his territory from God's perspective. He could even see through the surface of the Hornet's Nest to see every single movement of the Combat Hornetdemons.
"The beehives are really densely distributed. There are 13 beehives in a four-kilometer semicircle. Other than the one closest to us, the rest have Combat Hornetdemons gathering." Lin Huang stood up and activated his eye power to the extreme. He looked at the hive that he had just scouted. Indeed, he could see all 13 hives clearly.
However, Lin Huang knew that it wouldn't be easy for the other party to discover him. This was because the 56th floor was just as lush as the 55th floor. As long as he bent down slightly, he would be able to hide in the bushes.
After confirming that he was temporarily safe, Lin Huang then summoned Bloody.
Bloody saw the hornet nest not far away as soon as it was summoned. Just when it was about to enter battle mode, Lin Huang's voice came into its ears.
"Don't worry, that beehive has already been abandoned."
"This is the fifty-sixth floor?" Bloody observed for a moment and noticed that there was not a single Combat Hornetdemon around the hive. It then let its guard down.
"Yes, I need you to investigate the distribution of the beehives and locate the hornet queen. At the same time, see if there are any hornet guardians patrolling." After all, Lin Huang's detection range was limited. He could only rely on Bloody's Leech Pods if he wanted to investigate a wider range.
The hornet guardians that he mentioned were the direct guards of the hornet queen. They were triple mutated Combat Hornetdemons with a combat strength of peak immortal-level rank-9. They were violent and dared to fight imperial-levels. Of course, one hornet guardian would definitely not be able to defeat an imperial-level. However, three of them could fight an imperial-level if they worked together.
Meanwhile, the hornet queen was the ruler of the entire hornet colony.
All the worker hornets and hornet guardians of the Combat Hornetdemons were bred by the hornet queen. Under normal circumstances, the hornet queen would not leave the hive and would not attack. Rumor had it that the hornet queen could only breed offspring and did not have any combat strength. There were also rumors that the hornet queen's ability was terrifying and was even more powerful than the hornet guardians. However, it would not attack easily.
Of course, there was also the most ordinary worker hornets which were the ones that Lin Huang and the rest had encountered in the Secret Forest. Their combat strength ranged from immortal-level rank-7 to rank-9 and they were double mutated.
After instructing Bloody, Lin Huang appeared under the abandoned hive in a flash. He lifted his head and observed it carefully.
The hive looked like a lotus pod. It even looked like a lotus pod that had its seeds dug out and dried under the sun. However, it was slightly bigger. The diameter of the hive was about 150 meters, like a small hill. However, Lin Huang felt that it was not as big as the one that was hanging on the tree in the Secret Forest. In reality, he was right. If the hive in the forest was magnified 1,000 times, its diameter should be about 300 meters. It was twice the size of the hive in front of him and its volume was about eight times.
Although there was no honey in the hive, the value of such a complete hive was comparable to an ancient relic. Apart from being a collector's item, such a hive was also a favorite place for many insect monsters to stay. Imperial Censors who reared insect pets were willing to pay a high price to purchase it. Apart from that, it was said that a rare antidote could be extracted from the hive after it was decomposed. It could be used to make an expensive, broad-spectrum antidote that was effective against more than 80% of the known poisons.
Although he wanted to put the hive into his storage space, Lin Huang resisted the urge.
The hive was too big of a target. As soon as it disappeared, not only would the other 12 hives around it notice that something was wrong, but the other hives within a 20-kilometer radius might also notice it.
Suppressing the urge to take the hive away, Lin Huang sat down quietly and waited patiently for Bloody's investigation results.
About half an hour later, Bloody finally opened its eyes.
"The hornet queen's hive is far away from us. It's more than 1,000 kilometers away. I didn't see any hornet guardians leaving the hornet queen's hive to patrol."
"How about the humans?" Lin Huang asked again. He did not want anyone to see him summoning ten monsters at the same time.
"There are two humans trying to break through the checkpoint. The nearest one is about 350 kilometers away from here."
Lin Huang could not help but smirk when he heard the news.
"The hornet queen and the hornet guardians are staying in the hive. The nearest human is 300 kilometers away. It's undoubtedly the best time to accumulate points. "
"Xiao Hei, summon Bai, Tyrant, Charcoal … Lancelot!"
As soon as Lin Huang was done speaking, Bai, Tyrant, and the rest of the Monster Cards appeared before Lin Huang almost at the same time.
Bloody then spent more than half an hour arranging everyone's tasks in detail. It also reminded them about the things that they had to pay attention to. After confirming that there were no problems, it nodded at Lin Huang.
"Are you guys ready?" Lin Huang glanced at everyone.
"Yes!" Bai and the rest answered confidently.
"Let's start killing then!"
