Using the god of fire against a tower blessed by…the god of fire?

phantom

... so are you saying I need to point out. that avoiding danger is not standard behavior for monster bees the size of hands?

Bryan

I think they understood that, when they saw bees the size of a hand, the bees were not standard bees.

Black Esper

And Ruckanos is dumb enough to not retreat and reorganise.

phantom

The shades are not stronger. The shades did not threaten the tower through raw power but using opponents that countered the dungeon's defenses. The shade that got the furthest was the bird shade and a single wyvern was implied to rival it. But the bird shade also became helpless as the tower updated to deal with it. These people challenged a tower with no preparation to actually fight it.

phantom

"…they clearly avoid danger so…it might actually work. If we can get the wyverns out of these tunnels and airborne.” and this was the final warning you missed. Avoiding danger is abnormal behavior for bees.

I think it's suppose to be blue like the color.

Bryan

This actually makes sense - the bear-folk were approaching even the minor shades created to challenge delvers as major threats, and were amazed that the bees dealt with them so easily. So is it that this makes the bees look strong? Or is it that individual non-champion people are actually incredibly weak?

Durphymcbob

More like a counter missile to make it explode early then, and early enough to take a mage and a wyvern with it.

I'd say any of rhe soilders who have not directly harmed a bee yet and surrenders gets to be taken "prisoner", and at the very least the guy who brought the Conduits Queen gets to live. The rest of them can fertilize the flower fields.

Brandon Johnson

Great chapter. One small edit. second to last paragraph "A curtain of blew". I would clarify what blew

Liam

Thank you for the chapter, and I agree kill the human but keep Ruckanos and captive alive including the augur And the guy that is friends with the queen bee.

Drakenclaw

Sound to me not as a control ursipation, and more like blew the fireball up with one of his own.

Drakenclaw

Next chapter: How the glorious Ruckanos managed to become the new Tower Lord and seize his destiny. This and other newest bzzzz in our Daily Beexpress!

Bryan

Or the fairy forest.

Beeees!

Honestly makes the shades seem so much stronger. When you see how strong bees can be against these soldiers

Fernando Oliveira

Yes! Death to the humans. Death to those that stand against the hive of hives! Lmao. Loved the chapter, thank you for writing it. These idiots think they'll be able to just brute force their way through and kill belissar, they will fail. I'm surprised the god of fire didn't smite them for invoking their name against one of their champions. Their screams and deaths will be glorious. The lancers haven't acted yet, they'll probably be able to pierce the shield but they'll be vulnerable after. If they target the captain and ruckanos the rest would fall into chaos, perhaps even surrending. Idk what belissar would do with prisoners tho, might just execute them to make up for the fallen bees. A life for a life, seems even to me. Leaving just the augur, and that one human that's safe guarding the normal bees. The augur can be kept for information and the last should be fine with living under belissar's rule.

Thanks for the chapter. If I read that right the Chief was able to use her magic to control the explosion fireball the Invaders sent right, probably sade some bee lifes right. CHARGE FORWARD SOILDERS DEFEND YOUR HOME YOU ARE BEE-GION.
