Chapter 28 - Chapter 28: Royal Jelly

When Wang Wu woke up again, the sky had started to lighten, with the dawn's glow spreading from the peaks of the eastern mountains.

A blush of red, so enchanting.

Wait a minute, have I been unconscious for a whole day and night?

Wang Wu was surprised that he wasn't dead, and also a bit surprised at his newfound sensitivity to changes in light.

After all, he was now comparable to a mummy.

At this moment, he also noticed that during his coma, many pieces of information had floated by.

A thought crossed his mind, and these messages automatically flashed by again.

"The toxin is neutralizing, a portion of the bee venom substance is being extracted, you've gained a trace amount of royal jelly substance, you've gained 30 points of satiety, you've gained 2 points of spiritual qi."

"Because you consumed a trace amount of royal jelly, you've gained 0.2% growth."

"Your Level 4 Healing Talent has been automatically activated..."

"The toxin is neutralizing, a portion of the bee venom substance is being extracted, you've gained a trace amount of royal jelly substance, you've gained 57 points of satiety, you've gained 3 points of spiritual qi."

"Because you consumed a trace amount of royal jelly, you've gained 0.3% growth."

"The toxin is neutralizing, a portion of the spider poison substance is being extracted, you've gained trace anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, you've gained 5 points of spiritual qi, you've gained 0.4% growth."

...

There was a lot of information, at least dozens of lines, all of it harvest information.

After reading the last piece of information, Wang Wu was stunned.

Because his gains were so great, it was simply unimaginable.

Firstly, he had gained two points of Bee Venom Resistance in one go, reflected in the attribute bar as (2/10).

Then he also gained two points of Spider Poison Resistance, reflected in the attribute bar as (2/5).

Next, his 130 Life Value had fully recovered.

His Level 4 Healing Talent had once again made a significant contribution.

At the same time, he still had 270 points of satiety left, which Wang Wu found puzzling. How could he still have so much satiety remaining? Thinking it over, it might only be related to that royal jelly substance.

After all, it was royal jelly!

Who would have thought that royal jelly could be extracted from bee venom?

But this might also be related to the blood-dissolving characteristic of spider venom.

Then, he had gained 31 points of spiritual qi altogether.

Incredible, but toxins are a form of energy, a refined energy, so it is understandable.

Finally, his growth skyrocketed by 3.8% in one go.

So his current growth had reached 23.8%, with a Special Growth Level of 10%. Thanks to the wild bees and spiders, this pair of good buddies, who truly love me.

That's right, if this isn't love, what else is there to expect!

Following that, without hesitation, Wang Wu used 20 points of spiritual qi to increase his Life Value to 140 points.

He needed to invest more in Basic Attributes. If the Life Value was insufficient, it could be genuinely difficult to handle unexpected events. Just like yesterday, if the armed bee swarm had been thirty instead of twenty, the accumulated toxins alone would have poisoned him to death.

Because this truly accumulates.

At this moment, Wang Wu felt a stirring in his heart. His Level 5 Danger Perception sensed that the Black Spider clan was climbing up to the treetops as the sunlight emerged, marking the start of Purple Gold Three Minutes.

A large number of golden particles scattered in the sunlight. The Black Spider clan absorbed them thoroughly, unaware and unconcerned that some sunlight penetrated the leaves and branches, causing a small amount of golden particles to fall as well.

But this was unavoidable; it had always been so, and they wouldn't care.

However, for Wang Wu, who was hanging on the tree trunk over thirty meters above the ground, this was like a windfall from the heavens.

It was over thirty meters from the ground, comparable to that cliff height, which is the height Purple Gold Three Minutes can reach.

Though he was wrapped like a dumpling, patches of sunlight still shone through. His Level 1 Spirit Essence talent, across the thick layers of spider silk—hmm, this spider silk was actually transparent, truly beautiful in the sunlight.

So, naturally, the golden particles were absorbed by him.

He had never imagined he could actually enjoy the benefits of Purple Gold Three Minutes.

Wang Wu was incredibly moved.

Isn't this what true love is?

During Purple Gold Three Minutes, Wang Wu absorbed and converted 35 points of spiritual qi in one go, even with the thick layers of dense foliage blocking it.

It surely lived up to its reputation—the Purple Gold quality, truly worth having.

Next came Golden Three Minutes, which was clearly a lower grade, giving Wang Wu only 18 points of spiritual qi.

Finally, under Silver Three Minutes, he got only 7 points of spiritual qi.

But in total, it was still as much as 60 points.

Counting the previous remainder, Wang Wu now had a whopping 75 points of usable spiritual qi in his body!

Too crazy!

Wang Wu didn't dare to slack off, nor become complacent, and immediately allocated 60 points of spiritual qi into two parts. Twenty points were used to increase the Defense Attribute to 10 points.

The remaining 40 points of spiritual qi further boosted his Life Value, just enough to raise it to 160 points.

Whew, it wasn't easy. The sense of security finally increased by a decimal point...

But the slap in the face came too quickly, and without knowing how the round-table-sized spider widow made her judgment, she suddenly scuttled down and injected him again with an unspeakable spider toxin.

And in merely a few seconds, he fell into unconsciousness again...

Seriously, seriously hit rock bottom!

Not long after Wang Wu fell into a state of unconscious paralyzation, the brown giant eagle flew back, but this time, sitting on its back was a small-sized, pure white Silver Fox.

The brown giant eagle carried the Silver Fox to the low hill 800 meters away. There, the Silver Fox jumped off and took out an item, sweeping it around in all directions, a faint trace of blood-colored light passing over. An eerie symbol was imprinted on the body of a Big Mountain Cat on that hill.

Subsequently, any Little Demon Leader in groups near the hill was invariably pressed with the Blood Seal, as if it was a kind of mark, similar to branding one's livestock to prevent them from getting lost.

The Silver Fox appeared quite shrewd, with a pair of blood-red eyes that were exceptionally sharp, searching thoroughly like a precise surveyor.

Like a land-measuring official, diligent and responsible.

In this area, all Little Demons with a certain level of strength were marked with the Blood Seal. Those without strength but who could gather into groups were all registered in a ledger under a beast-skin roster.

From birds flying in the sky, to grasshoppers, mosquitoes, wild bees, spiders, ants, mantises, bugs, butterflies, mice, venomous snakes, scorpions, centipedes, all were recorded clearly and vividly.

And when it came to registering the big tree housing the Black Spider clan, the Silver Fox was even more attentive. As for the round-table-sized spider widow, she didn't dare utter a word, obediently allowing the Blood Seal to brand her back, quite conspicuously.

During this process, the eyes of the Silver Fox swept over the dozens of pieces of dried jerky hanging from the treetop, naturally including Wang Wu, who wasn't dead yet, among them, although dead or not didn't matter, as he was already the prey of the Black Spider clan and would inevitably die, hence there was no need to register.

The entire process took less than a minute before the brown giant eagle carried the Silver Fox to the next location.

Downstream along the creek, there was another black giant eagle carrying a gray weasel, conducting a similar registration process, as it were. The saying goes that taxes were apportioned according to land size and households were organized—a significant matter for the Demon Race.

As for the imminent war that Wang Wu thought was about to break out, it seemed it didn't exist.

Because from a distance, the Silver Fox cheerfully greeted the yellow weasel, behaving with nine parts friendliness.
