However, they didn't have enough time today. The sun was about to set. If they were to fight the hornets at night, it wouldn't be good for guerrilla tactics. Although the Bumblebee's eyesight wasn't good at night and it might not be able to see the Dark Crows in the dark, at the same time, Green Wood and the Dark Crows wouldn't be able to tell the direction at night. Moreover, there were too many unknown things at night. No one could be sure if a powerful Elf would suddenly appear.
Therefore, the only thing they could do now was to stroll around the hillside and see if there were any small elf groups around. It would be beneficial for them to determine the direction of their escape.
Before the sun completely set, Aoki brought the Dark Crows back to the big tree on the hillside. With regards to the dangers in the forest at night, even the current Aoki and the Dark Crows couldn't completely deal with them. According to the situation, this tree should have originally belonged to Karos. Now that the Dark Crows had defeated Karos, it was reasonable for them to own this tree. Therefore, there was no need to be afraid of any small elves coming to disturb them at night.
As for the Karos that had been defeated by the Dark Crows, when Aoki and the Dark Crows went out to investigate the situation, they found that it was no longer on the ground. It was just that they didn't know if it had left by itself or was taken away by other small elves.
With the hillside as the center, it was the territory of the green caterpillars and the iron cocoons. To the north was the territory of the iron cocoons. To the east was a group of walking grasses, among which there were a few strong smelly flowers. To the south were a few scattered Karos, whose strength was similar to the one defeated by the Dark Crows. To the west, there weren't any particularly obvious small elf groups. There were only a few relatively weak "individual elves".
Putting aside the unimportant matters, Aoki used dried branches and leaves to make a fire under the tree. He placed the energy cube of the Dark Crows in a wooden basin and indicated that it was ready to eat under its expectant gaze. After a day of fighting, the Dark Crows' appetite had obviously increased. For the energy cube now, the more it ate, the more it could absorb.
Looking at the Dark Crows eating heartily, Aoki smiled. He took out a few pieces of jerky from his storage space and roasted them slightly over the bonfire. Then, he boiled some warm water and hastily finished his dinner. Although the food was rather simple, as meat, it could still replenish a day's worth of consumption.
As night fell, the originally quiet forest began to become noisy. The sounds of insects and croaks rose and fell one after another. Aoki and the Dark Crow did not cause trouble. The man and the elf climbed up the tree obediently, chose the largest branch as their bed, and fell asleep in a moment.
The night passed peacefully. When the sun rose from the east, Aoki and Dark Crow were already up. After living in the forest for so long, even the bad habits that Aoki had left behind in his previous life when he started to enjoy life after reaching the Quasi-Heavenly King level had been changed.
Just like last night, he hastily finished his breakfast and walked toward the territory of the Iron Chrysalis under the morning sun. The place they needed to attack today was the territory of the Iron Chrysalis.
Just like when they came, Aoki safely and smoothly passed through the territories of the green caterpillars and the Iron Chrysalis. He went straight to the forest full of Iron Chrysalis.
Looking at the dense Iron Chrysalis hanging above the forest, Aoki was speechless. If someone with trypophobia saw this, they would probably run away immediately.
As a bug-type elf, evolving from a Unicorn Bug to an Iron Chrysalis and then to a Hornet was a standard bug-type elf's growth speed. A Unicorn Bug, as long as there were enough resources, could complete its final evolution in 15 days without any flaws. Moreover, Hornets had decent speed and attack power. In a situation where there were many of them, ordinary elves really did not dare to provoke them.
However, when they were still in the Unicorn Bug and Iron Chrysalis state, they were actually very weak. When they were Unicorn Bugs, if they did not have any special encounters, they would basically only have two skills, Silk Spit and Poison Needle. Moreover, whether it was defense or HP, they were very weak. As for after they evolved into Iron Chrysalis, although their defense had increased, they did not have any other skills other than the toughening skill. Moreover, because their movements did not change, they were more vulnerable to the attacks of their natural enemies.
According to the map provided by the Rocket Team, this place should have only been inhabited by Unicorn Bugs before, so it was designated as their territory. This treasure should have been buried before all the trial-takers came to the island, but it should not have been too long ago. Therefore, according to the time, this batch of Iron Chrysalis should not have evolved yet.
Aoki, who was slightly closer to the Iron Chrysalis, scanned it briefly, and a large amount of information about the Iron Chrysalis appeared. The Iron Chrysalis were generally level 7 or 8. Although their levels were not high, if there were enough of them, the EXP would still be considerable, right?
This was part of Greenwood's plan in the first place. Greenwood would not show any mercy to the Iron Chrysalis that had no power to fight back. Moreover, if the Hornet swarm was formed in the future, it would be the greatest threat to the people in this forest. Therefore, Aoki had no pressure at all.
"Dark Crow, use Tempest on the Iron Chrysalis! Increase your attack range and eliminate them as much as possible, "Aoki said to Dark Crow after he finished his preparations.
"Caw! Caw! " Dark Crow nodded and patted his chest, as if to say, "Don't worry. These immobile weaklings are just a piece of cake."
When the Dark Crows acted, they didn't think about who was the one who was scared when they passed through the forest.
The current situation was different from before. Previously, because they had to pass through the forest, they were in the middle of all the Iron Chrysalis. If an accident happened and all the Iron Chrysalis broke out of their cocoons prematurely, then they would really be in the enemy's camp. However, Dark Crow and Aoki clearly held the initiative now. Relying on their advantage in speed, they could change places after every attack. They could leave whenever they wanted, and no one could stop them.
The Iron Chrysalis in this forest were only a small part of the Iron Chrysalis' territory.
Two small whirlwinds formed on Dark Crow's wings. As the whirlwinds moved further away, they grew larger and stronger. Under the panicked and anxious gazes of the Iron Chrysalis, dozens of Iron Chrysalis were pulled into the whirlwind.
"Wu wu wu wu …" All the Iron Chrysalis cried out. None of them knew that they, who were just conserving their strength, would fall into an unexpected calamity. Seeing their companions fall to the ground, the Iron Chrysalis that were still hanging on the trees shook violently and cried out loudly.
In battle, Dark Crow would not show any mercy. Even if the opponent was weak, as long as they were an enemy, they had to be defeated.
Without any hesitation, the two whirlwinds appeared again as Dark Crow flapped his wings. They swung at the remaining Iron Chrysalis, causing more Iron Chrysalis to fall to the ground.
As a flying-type skill, and with the advantage in terms of aptitude and level, none of the Iron Chrysalis could survive a single attack from Dark Crow. Under the continuous Tempest, all the Iron Chrysalis in this forest lost their lives.
Aoki was quite satisfied with Dark Crow's ability. In this territory, this was only the tip of the iceberg. The task ahead was still very difficult.
"Weng weng weng, weng weng …"
Suddenly, Aoki heard a sound from afar. It sounded like the sound of bees.
Aoki's expression changed slightly. Could it be that his previous estimation was wrong? Had the Hornets in this territory already formed? If that was the case, he was afraid that the plan would not be carried out smoothly.
Aoki did not have to wait for long. A moment later, a group of Hornets with red eyes appeared in front of him. Counting carefully, there were exactly five of them.
Seeing the number of Hornets, Aoki was slightly relieved. Fortunately, there were only five of them. If there were more, he would have to retreat.
Aoki was quite familiar with the Hornets. Whether it was in his previous life, or the anime and games he watched on Earth, he was quite familiar with them. Aoki's original impression of the Hornets was that their strength was average, but there were many of them.
But later, when the Hornets of the Rocket Team's boss, Sakaki, appeared, Aoki's view of the Hornets was completely overturned. From average strength, they immediately became a Hornets with good speed and attack. If he was willing to invest resources in training them, the results would not be less than the returns.
Although it was impossible to train the Hornets into a Hornets like Sakaki, if they were trained normally, they could still reach the strength of a Quasi-Heavenly King or Heavenly King.
Sakaki's initial Hornet was the Hornets, and as the only son of the former Rocket Team's leader, the current Rocket Team's leader must have unimaginable resources in his hands. The resources invested in the Hornets would certainly be more than the returns, but he was rich.
One must know that in the manga, Sakaki's Hornets had defeated Chengdu's champion, Dragonfly. On one hand, he was the boss of the Rocket Team, and on the other hand, he was the champion of the league. Their statuses were similar, but the Hornets were on a different level. On one hand, it was the most ordinary insect Hornets, and on the other hand, it was Dragonfly who had the title of Quasi God. Although Sakaki's contribution was undeniable, it also showed that the Hornets' growth limit was not low.
The most important thing was that when the Hornets evolved, this kind of Hornets suddenly became a hot steamed bun. The Hornets had the characteristics of adaptability, super attack power, and extremely fast speed in battle. They were worthy of being called life harvesters.
The Hornets' growth speed was fast. In just half a month, they could become qualified combat power. With a little training, they could have good strength. Coupled with the appearance of super evolution, the Hornets had become one of the most popular Hornets. On Earth, when the Hornets first appeared, almost everyone had one. Without a Hornet, they would be embarrassed to say that they played Pokémon.
For the people in this world, the Hornets were simply the gospel of all civilian trainers.
