Chapter 519: Chapter 519

"Your work yesterday was impressive. The location of the hive has been determined, and we can be quite sure that our primary target for elimination—the ’Queen Bee’—is hidden inside the hive."

At this point, Chen Qian glanced at the documents in her hand and continued:

"Also, the Light-Eating Bee nest remaining in Osaka City has been cleared overnight. The city is now very safe. Only a few Light-Eating Bees remain, and it’s said that some have entered the sewers and left Osaka, but it’s not a big issue."

At the corner of the conference table, Esther let out a long yawn, lowered her head with a rabbit doll in her arms, and rubbed her red eyes.

Chen Qian crossed her arms and turned her head to glance at her, "Looks like someone is about to fall asleep."

"Sleep quality is very important for the elderly," Esther said, drooping her eyelids, "Let’s hurry and finish up."

"Next time we’ll find a coffin for you to lie in during the meeting." Urushibara Ryuri propped her chin with a playful gaze at her.

"No way, she has a bad temper when she wakes up." You Ruirui said expressionlessly, "If we wake her up, she’ll want to kill us."

"Will a two-hundred-year-old granny fight against all odds?" Fan Dongqing tilted his head, "Interesting."

"Watch your tone, young one."

Esther raised her head and gave him a lukewarm glance, while Fan Dongqing shrugged it off, playing with his phone nonchalantly.

Chen Qian sighed, "Back to business, Garfield left a batch of drones on Nameless Island. The drone footage captured the Four Great Bee Lords testing their superpowers, leading Garfield to deduce their abilities."

"Wow, what kind of abilities do those four bugs have?" Fan Dongqing asked.

Chen Qian picked up the remote on the table, silently pressed a button, and projected full-body models of the four Bee Lords in the conference room.

A Great Bee Lord with a black body and hexagonal wings—"Qiao";

A Second Bee Lord with a purple body, muscular build, and a pair of giant hammers at its tail—"Guli";

A Third Bee Lord with sea-blue hair, dressed in a sea-blue gown, with female features—"Kalina";

And a Fourth Bee Lord that is unremarkable in all senses and resembles an oversized ordinary Light-Eating Bee—"Malvite."

Chen Qian looked up at the models and continued:

"The superpower of the Great Bee Lord ’Qiao’ is suspected to be a neurotoxin that can paralyze nerves left on an opponent during close contact. Even a Catastrophe-level Superpower User would be down for one to two hours, so don’t underestimate it. We should avoid close combat with him;

"The ability of the Second Bee Lord ’Guli’ is to expand and gigantify its body. This was the clearest image captured by the drones, with its size reaching over two hundred meters... It’s worth noting that the Second Bee Lord doesn’t have wings, meaning it has no flying capability.

"The abilities of the Third Bee Lord ’Kalina’ are still uncertain, but Garfield speculates that she can use the corpses of humans or animals to create enhanced Light-Eating Bees. Besides that... she is also suspected of having the power of invisibility, so we need to be vigilant around her.

"As for the Fourth Bee Lord ’Malvite,’ her abilities remain unknown for now, so you all need to improvise in actual combat."

"The Queen Bee lacks combat abilities, right?" Princess Alexandra asked, tilting her head, the silver-white bun on her head swaying.

"Correct, the Queen Bee lacks combat capabilities, so as long as we take out the Four Bee Lords, she becomes as good as a sitting duck." Chen Qian nodded, "Come tomorrow, I’ll send you the detailed task distribution list."

She paused: "After landing on the island, some will be responsible for eliminating the normal Light-Eating Bee swarms on the east, west, south, and north sides. Some will invade the hive to battle the Four Great Bee Lords... At the same time, we must guard against sudden raids on Osaka City, so one or two will stay on standby in the city."

"Please let me face the Great Bee Lord ’Qiao.’" Oda Ehgo suddenly said.

With arms crossed and hands tucked into his sleeves, he lowered his head in contemplation. He still remembered the arrogant and grim expression on the face of the Great Bee Lord he saw from the fighter jet.

"I’ll arrange according to their traits," Commander Chen Qian glanced at Oda Ehgo, "No need to clash with bugs."

"To be frank, Commander, don’t you think it’s a bit of an overkill to strategize?" Fan Dongqing leaned back, resting against the chair back, and asked without lifting his head.

"Do you have any objections?" Chen Qian crossed her arms and looked at him.

"They’re just a bunch of bugs, we can stomp them out in any way. If they aren’t dead, just stomp them again. It’s a bit laughable to play mind games with them." Fan Dongqing said.

"I knew you’d say that," Chen Qian said expressionlessly, "I’m too lazy to reprimand you. Just don’t break the rules like last time, or face the consequences yourself. Your record is already covered in blemishes, and I can’t protect you this time."

"Fine, fine, fine." Fan Dongqing stretched lazily.

"The arrogant will inevitably bring about their own downfall..." the raspy voice came from beneath the bandages of the Father of Puppets’ face. Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn NoveI★Fire.net

"I just care about when the battle starts." Fan Dongqing continued to ask, unable to hold back a yawn, perhaps influenced by Esther’s sleepiness.

"The Light-Eating Bees are weakest at night, so we plan to set the operation time for nighttime."

With that, Chen Qian put down the documents in her hand and looked up at everyone, "We plan to start the Light-Eating Bee extermination operation at 0:00 AM on August 14th, three days from now."

"Okay, I’ve set my alarm." Fan Dongqing said.

"I should go sharpen my knives now." Oda Ehgo opened his eyes and withdrew his hands from his sleeves.

"There’s a lot to do, huh." Urushibara Ryuri said, "A big insect extermination action."

"To be honest, this isn’t very friendly to those with OCD." Ke Qingzheng adjusted his glasses and uncharacteristically complained, "I wasn’t this resistant during other missions."

"Just blow them clean, and it won’t be dirty." Jiushijiu said nonchalantly.

"Dissecting the Queen Bee... dissection, Queen Bee." Kalina lowered her head, her glasses reflecting light, revealing a sinister smile.

As everyone chatted, a sudden "thud" sounded from a corner of the conference room. Turning to look, they saw the forehead of the girl in the gothic dress crash onto the conference table, falling asleep just like that.

Soft laughter spread around, the Princess raised her hand to cover her face, chuckling, while Urushibara Ryuri spread her hands, and Jiushijiu tilted his head and sighed.

"Looks like our elder has collapsed." Chen Qian glanced at the deeply asleep Esther, and advised everyone, "If any of you have time, help move Esther into the coffin, then this meeting is adjourned."

With that, she put the documents on the table and then left the conference room first.
