The Defeated Dragon

Chapter 282: Full Body Armor Against The Poison Bees

Task: Because the Flowers has reduced its trips at the sea, the timber needed for construction in Black Horse Island became insufficient. Marcus has decided to cut the islands scattered trees, but then they encountered a deadly bee strike. Please put down the bees nest to prevent more people from being stung by it. Reward: A sprite worm.

The smoke task floated gently in front of Liszts eyes, and the content has been reflected in his mind.

Very well, finally there is another sprite reward !

Since Liszt got the corn grass sprites, I havent harvested any more sprites for two months. Although winter comes and most plants stop growing, Liszt regrets it. sprite worms are the productivity that the lord cannot do without.

Now, a new task has finally emerged, and the reward is the sprite.

I dont know what kind of sprite worm it is, there are not many clues to this mission But whatever it is,I must  first get rid of the poisonous bee hive! Liszt was in high spirits.

Its not difficult to get rid of the poison honey bees because knights have their full body armor.

During the time when Flower Town sold seafood and made lots of money from it, Liszt had saved twenty sets of knight equipment. Among them is the steel armor that protected people from head to toe. After it is put on, any poisonous bees, mad bees, killer bees, etc. would all end up dead.

I only hope that not too many serfs have died.

Marcus, who was far away in Black Horse Island, was thinking of the same thing as Liszt.

After the Flowers returned from Black Horse Island, Marcus immediately reported to his Lord Baron. My Lord, there is a poisonous bee hive in Black Horse Island that can kill people. A total of 16 serfs have died due to the bee sting. When I come back from this trip, I plan to bring some full-length armour to wipe out the poison bees completely!

Marcus brought back several bodies of poison bees.

Each one was the size of a thumb and there is an even bigger queen bee.

Even as an elite earth Knight, Marcus was too afraid to approach the hive, so he had to retreat and seek the protection of a knights armor.

Im going to Black Horse Island with you to see what this poisonous bee has killed. Liszt said in a deep voice. He not only wanted to find the sprite, but also wanted to see if there was honey in the poisonous bee hive.

In case there is honey in the hive, it would definitely be the best honey around.

Honey is the top ingredient in noble recipes, but since no one can raise bees, only serfs can be sent to collect it in the wild. Every year, a large number of serfs who collect honey are stung to death by various bees. 

There were only a few beehives in Flower Town.

But even if there were hundreds of them, Liszt would not send the serfs to gather honey and have the serfs life be at risk for food. He was not that cruel.

Liszt decided to follow.

Marcus had no comments.

However, he had other things to report. Although the problem of cutting down trees this time had caused by the poison bees surprise attack, it was also caused by the loose management and the lazy serfs who took a dump in a far away place, which led to the attack of poisonous bees. My Lord, Port Town needs more officials!

I see. I will arrange it as soon as possible.

As a proactive lord, everytime there is a problem, he should immediately set about to solve it. After a little thought, Griffin Haystack and Russell Scale were called.

Griffin is an orphan and was Liszts friend at Knights College. Russell is from a civilian background and his family has moved to Flower Town.

Looking at the two earth knights, Liszt asked them seriously, Russell, Griffin, can I trust you?

Griffin answered without hesitation. Lord Baron, I came to Flower Town to join you. I am ready to follow you any time!

I am also ready to follow any time! Russell was unwilling to fall behind.

Hence, Im sending you to a place to work and you probably wont return to Flower Town for a long time. Russell, you have to take your family with you You wont be able to return to Flower Town in about two or three years. Will you still be volunteering for this task ?

Russell was puzzled. Lord Baron, do you want us to perform any official duties? Griffin and I have enough manpower. Why must I bring my family as well?

It is indeed a business. However, there is no danger, just a little bit of hard work, and the need to keep everything confidential. As for what kind of business it is, I cant tell you. Liszt looked at the two men. But I can assure you that if you give your best work, there will be a return, a generous return.

Griffin heard this and said directly, Lord Baron, I will do it!

Russell hesitated and nodded. Since Russell has decided to follow Master Baron, he naturally will follow Lord Barons arrangement!

Liszt nodded. From today onwards, you will formally join my Knights Squad!

This meant that Liszt had accepted their pledges. Griffin and Russell woke up instantly, knelt down on one knee and solemnly carried out the knight etiquette of following and loyalty. We are willing to serve the Baron!

Get up, pack your things, relay the news fully to your family, and well meet at the Flower Harbor tomorrow morning.

Yes, Lord Baron!

-

The next day.

The Flowers braved the wind and waves to get to Black Horse Island in the afternoon.

Only then did Rasse and Griffin realize that they were sent to work on a desert island, and this Black Horse Island will become the future fief of their Lord Baron.

In the future, my Knights Squad training will be arranged on Black Horse Island. Russell, Griffin, and Teacher Marcus t will be the captains of the Knights Squad, hence, are responsible for the daily training. The construction of Port Town was all based on Marcuss lead. Construction requires hard work, and training must be persistent. Liszt introduced.

Yes, Lord Baron!

Knights should be  all capable of fighting on horseback and work as officials.

Without idling around too much, Liszt and his three knights rushed to the site of the poison bee hive. The four were all dressed in full body armor of fine steel, riding on their mounts, even with barbed wire mesh masks to cover their eyes. With such impenetrable equipment, it should be easy to destroy the bees.

Tremblingwoods  and the horses stayed at a distance while Liszt and others walked to the poison bee hive.

My Lord, it is just up ahead. Marcus pointed to a tree not far ahead. Can you see the big tree? The beehive is on the branch of the big tree. It is very large and can be seen clearly.

I see it. Lets go and try to kill all poison bees before dark.

The Earth Knights feet moved very fast. A moment later, they were nearing  the tree. Liszt has no idea why the serfs would take a dump so far.

Buzz!

The poisonous bees have found the four knights.

Liszt did not hesitate to call up his companions and they all began to take the initiative to launch attacks. One by one, the thumb-sized poison bees were flying with great momentum, but they could not break through the steel. The four earth knights were using their qi and brandishing swords, one after the other shooting the big poison bees to death.

Liszt, in particular, the strongest elite earth knight among the group, has fire-attributed qi and his magic was bursting. Every time he would perform a fighting technique, the sky-long flames could actually burn a large number of poisonous bees.

The hive was huge, at least half a person tall.

Thousands of poisonous wasps were flying out in the thick air. They recklessly rushed toward four people, only to be turned into dead bodies under the knights swords and would then fall on the ground.

Sir, I will come up to the tree to cut down the beehive! Griffin had thunder-attribute qi, and thunder power was evident on his long sword. Although he was just an ordinary earth knight, his combat power was quite fierce.

He used both hands and feet to climb up the branches easily.

The poison bees were surrounding him in a circle, but this did not stop his movement. Pulling out a sword and aiming it at the root of the branch, he chopped off the whole branch and it dropped to the ground together with the beehive.

Four earth knights

Circling around the fallen hive, cutting down the  bees like crazy.

The situation was quite intense.
