Advancing to the Killer Bee Kingdom

The Killer Bees fought to the bitter end, but they were all killed by the endless waves of Slimes surging from all directions.

Before Chike could savor the victory, he shouted.

“Get out of the building and advance to the Killer Bee Kingdom as quickly as possible!”

The Slimes poured out of the division in droves.

A large number of Slimes were also waiting outside the division.

After the Slime army lined up, they advanced towards the Killer Bee Kingdom.

The Slime army’s perfectly coordinated movement looked like a flowing river.

The Slime army marched non-stop for a full day.

Chike declared a camp in one part of the forest.

“We’ll camp here tonight! Get food from the Space Slime and rest!”

The Space Slime is a golden Slime.

The Space Slime had a huge space inside its body, larger than its main body, so it could put things in and take them out.

It felt like a crawling subspace bag.

The Slimes received food from the Space Slime.

The Slimes had entrusted the food they would eat to the Space Slime, so they just had to receive it back.

The Slimes didn’t even pitch tents and rested and fell asleep right there where they stopped in the forest.

I, Lucy-nuna, Melissa, and Winston dug holes in the ground.

Chike approached me and spoke in a bright voice.

“It’s a good start.”

“It is. The antidote worked, and we destroyed one Killer Bee division. It’s a great harvest.”

“I hope this momentum continues to the Killer Bee Kingdom.”

“Yes. You’ve been running non-stop so far, so Chike-nim, you should rest quickly too. You can’t fight if you don’t eat and sleep well, right?”

“That’s right. I’ll sleep next to the hole.”

“It’s reassuring to have Chike-nim next to me.”

“Hahaha. I’m reassured by Kyle-nim.”

———————

The Slime army advanced towards the Killer Bee Kingdom for four days, annihilating any Killer Bees they encountered.

Finally, on the fourth day, a 11m high wall made of stone and beeswax appeared in the distance.

Sharp thorns were fixed to the wall, hardened with beeswax.

Killer Bees were densely lined up on the wall.

Seeing even small Killer Bees, it seemed they had brought out most of the adult Killer Bees.

The Killer Bee Queen Vespa and the Valkyries were floating in the sky in the center.

The Slimes were expected to have the upper hand in numbers.

The Slime army lined up at a suitable distance.

The Slime army consumed the antidote that the Antidote Slime had secreted.

Vespa roared.

“I increased your numbers as livestock, but you betray your master! This is truly laughable!”

Chike retorted.

“We are not livestock! We are Slimes, and we have a civilization superior to the Killer Bees!”

“I don’t want to hear the story of livestock! I’ll have to show you here that you are eternal livestock!”

Several shouts went back and forth.

I understood Vespa’s feelings to some extent.

In Earth terms, it was like a rancher diligently raising pigs in a natural free-range environment, only for the pigs to come in droves to eat the rancher and his family.

Chike shouted to the Slime army.

“Slimes are not livestock! Our freedom and the future of our descendants will be decided in this battle! Slimes can risk their lives for their comrades! The front and middle ranks, charge forward!”

The front and middle ranks of the Slime army charged towards the Killer Bee’s wall.

The ranged Slimes fired projectiles and slid forward.

Slimes could climb walls, so they didn’t need ladders.

I, Lucy-nuna, Winston, Melissa, Chike, the Poison Slime Adeben, the Horned Slime Bibsbe, and other strong individuals waited in the rear.

The rear fired Slime cannons.

Projectiles and cannonball Slimes flew towards the wall.

The Killer Bees blocked with hexagonal plate magic and responded with javelins.

Knowing that poison was useless, the Killer Bees did not use poison magic.

The Slimes arrived at the wall.

The Slime behind climbed on the Slime in front.

The Slimes piled up like a hill, creating a Slime ramp that reached the top of the wall.

The Slimes climbed the ramp and invaded the wall.

Winston looked at the Slime ramp and asked Chike in surprise.

“Are the Slimes on the bottom okay?”

“Our Slimes don’t die from being crushed by their comrades. They will feel proud of the fact that they became a stepping stone for their comrades.”

“Heo… That’s a tactic impossible for humans.”

“The Queen has told me about humans. She said they are barbaric beings who kill Dark Races on sight. It seems humans don’t sacrifice themselves for their comrades.”

“It’s true they are barbaric, but the reason is different. Humans die when crushed by other humans.”

“A pitiful race that can’t be a stepping stone for their comrades.”

“Hahaha. You can think of it that way.”

“Now that we can climb the wall, let’s go too.”

“Yes. My body is itching.”

Chike loudly ordered the departure.

“Slime Commando, depart! Let’s show that evil Killer Bee Queen our strength!”

The Slime powerhouses and our party members moved towards the direction where Vespa and the Valkyries were all at once.

To kill Vespa, I needed wings that could move freely in the air.

The system notification rang.

Ttiririring

[Wings that meet the conditions have been found. Would you like to learn Tentacle Wings using 20pt?]

“Yes!”

[You have learned Tentacle Wings.]

I shouted as I ran.

“I’ll take care of the Killer Bee Queen Vespa!”

Chike shouted.

“Understood! We’ll take care of the other powerhouses!”

We climbed over other Slimes and arrived at the Slime ramp.

I stepped on the Slime ramp and climbed onto the wall.

I jumped from the wall and landed in a place crowded with Killer Bee soldiers.

I extended dozens of weapon tentacles from my body and pierced the bodies of the Killer Bees.

Vespa and I made eye contact.

Vespa pointed at the Slime Commando with her finger and shouted.

“Kill those livestock and the fool who fell for livestock!”

Valkyries and Killer Bee guards poured towards the Slime Commando.

The Killer Bee lancer Valkyrie Viola stood in my way.

Viola sneered at me.

“There’s no courtesy for a fool who lives with livestock. I am the best lancer of the Killer Bees. I will skewer you with this spear and make you into a skewer.”

“Think what you want.”

I summoned the Tentacle Wings.

Two pairs of tentacles and membrane wings soared from my back.

I went around Viola’s side and flew towards Vespa.

The distance between Vespa and me narrowed.

I extended dozens of tentacles from my body and covered Vespa.

Suddenly, a thick hexagonal plate with a diameter of 4m popped out in front of me.

My tentacles collided with the plate and bounced off.

Kwang kwang kwagang

I quickly changed course before hitting my head on the hexagonal plate.

“Keuek! Almost hit.”

Vespa chuckled and opened her mouth.

“Pooh. Did you think I was just a figurehead Queen? I’m the best magician of the Killer Bees.”

At that moment, I felt an attack from behind me.

I turned my body and swung my tentacles, knocking away Viola’s spear imbued with Aura.

Chaeaeeng

Viola clicked her tongue.

“Tch. I was going to make you into a skewer.”

I looked around.

The other commando members were busy fighting their opponents.

‘In the end, I have to fight the Queen and one Valkyrie at the same time?’

I thought about using all my evolution points to become overwhelmingly strong and suppress them, but I soon gave up.

With my current strength, I can fight the Queen and one Valkyrie at the same time.

And although I don’t know the exact criteria, if I, a Dark Race, become a continental disaster-level monster, a Hero, the nemesis of the Light Race, will appear.

The Hero will receive help from all the Light Races, so I need to raise my subordinates sufficiently.

Also, even if I absorb the same warrior, the evolution points I get are decreasing compared to when I absorbed them when I was a tadpole.

To make a lot of hatcheries and Tentacle Heroes, I need to save evolution points.

‘Don’t try to suppress them with just strength, but fight while thinking, as Winston said.’

I pulled dozens of tentacles from my belly and swung and stabbed them at Viola.

Viola deflected and knocked away my tentacles with her godlike spearmanship.

Chaeng chaechaeng chaeng kang

The tentacles that Viola couldn’t block were blocked by Vespa’s hexagonal plate.

The hexagonal plate that Vespa made fell from above my head, and in the moment I dodged, Viola thrust her Aura spear.

I blocked the Aura spear with a tentacle shield.

Kaang

As I swung a hammer tentacle at Viola, Viola struck the blade and changed its course to her side.

I spread all my tentacles and shot them at Viola from all directions.

Vespa created a large hexagonal plate on Viola’s left, blocking my tentacles coming from the left.

As Viola quickly escaped through the gap, my remaining tentacles cut through the air.

I made the tentacles longer and chased after Viola.

Viola was more agile than I thought, so it was difficult to catch her.

Viola turned her direction towards me and shot forward, extending a spear covered in Aura.

“Death to the fool who played with livestock!”

I shot acidic mucus from my mouth at Viola.

“Tweh!”

Vespa created a hexagonal plate and blocked my acidic mucus.

Suddenly, Vespa let out a piercing scream.

“Kyaaaaak!”

Several bundles of Fire Arrows were embedded in Vespa’s body.

The situation was like this.

I knew that a Killer Bee magician could only create one hexagonal plate at a time.

When Vespa summoned a hexagonal plate to block my acidic mucus, I ordered Lucy-nuna to attack Vespa through the tentacle communication network.

Lucy-nuna shot a bundle of Fire Arrows at Vespa.

Vespa, who was distracted by the fight between me and Viola, was hit by the bundle of Fire Arrows as it was.

Vespa fell down.

Viola, still charging at me, shouted resolutely.

“I won’t throw away the opportunity that the Queen gave us by sacrificing herself! Acceleration Charge!”

Viola’s wings shone, and Viola shot at me like a bee.

Shuuuuuung

I twisted my body to dodge, covering my whole body with magic power.

But Viola was a little faster.

Viola’s Aura spear pierced my left flank.

Peoeok

I twisted my body so that Viola’s spear went off-center, but the pain was still there.

I screamed in pain.

“Kuaaaak!”

I gritted my teeth and endured.

I put magic power on my left hand and grabbed Viola’s spear.

Viola tried to pull out the spear, but I, with my powerful strength, grabbed it so it wouldn’t come out.

Soon, the bundle of tentacles that had been chasing behind Viola pierced Viola as it was.

Peobeobeobeobeok peobeok

Viola in front of me was shattered, and internal organs and bone fragments splattered on my body and face.

I pulled Viola’s spear, which I was holding, from my body and dropped it.

I coughed from the pain of my destroyed flank.

Kulleok kulleok kek

Saliva mixed with blood splattered from my mouth, but I endured with mental strength.

“Tweh. The war isn’t over yet.”

The regeneration of the wound is not going well due to the influence of Aura, but it was not a wound that would kill me yet.

The tentacles that came out of my body went back into my body.

I looked down.

Vespa, who had fallen on the wall, was still not dead.

Killer Bee soldiers were treating Vespa.

I flew towards Vespa.

The Killer Bees felt the Queen’s crisis and shouted.

“Protect the Queen!”

“Gather here!”

The Killer Bees who were fighting around looked towards the Queen.

Even a moment of distraction is fatal in battle.

The Valkyrie with the hammer who was fighting Chike looked at the Queen, and at that moment, Chike did a body check.

The Valkyrie fell backward and rolled on the floor.

Uduangtang

The green Slime next to her covered the Valkyrie’s face.

The skin on the Valkyrie’s face melted, revealing the skull, and then even the skull melted away.

With me defeating Viola and Vespa, the Slime army gained the upper hand.

I looked at Vespa’s face.

I could see Vespa muttering a spell with her mouth.

Vespa looked at my face and smirked.

“Fuck you.”

I quickly approached Vespa, but it was already too late.

The red gem at the end of Vespa’s staff broke, and a huge magic circle was created.

A swarm of locusts began to pour out endlessly from the magic circle.

The locust swarm’s tidal wave covered the wall and the Slimes and gnawed at the Slimes.

The locust swarm covered my vision, and now I couldn’t see Vespa or below.

Only the sound of the locust swarm’s flapping wings could be heard around me.

Buuuuuuung buuuuuuung buuuuuuung

Just then, Lucy-nuna sent a message through the tentacle mental network.

– [Kyle! Me, Melissa, and Winston are safe because we covered our whole bodies with acidic mucus. But it will be fatal to Slimes that don’t have the ability to protect their skin.]

– [What should I do?]

– [You have to kill the Queen. This magic will be maintained as long as the Queen is alive.]

– [Okay.]

I have to find and kill Vespa, who must be running away.
