A BEEKEEPER IN A MAGICAL WORLD
He seemed to have absorbed the characteristics into his body, but not completely. Upon careful inspection, it was evident that he merely carried these traits; there was no full "integration."
No wonder nothing happened when he attempted to measure the objects around him just now.
He had thought it was because he was too familiar with the items in the wooden house, thereby not triggering any abilities.
As it turned out, he hadn't gained this ability in the first place.
In other words, the characteristics were just temporarily attached to him.
It was akin to eating something, swallowing it, but being unable to digest it.
Right now, his "stomach" felt uncomfortable, starting to feel nauseous.
The traits slowly separated from his body, reassembling into a sphere made of tiny dots, suspended in mid-air.
"Strange…"
When the traits were displaced earlier, Hua Mi simultaneously received information about it.
The "instructions" explicitly stated that this thing was "absorbable."
"Could it be because I'm not from this world, so the hardware isn't compatible? Or perhaps…"
Hua Mi pondered for a moment, then released a Yin-Yang Bee.
Since arriving, he had undergone a series of events, indicating that bees in this world held some unique qualities.
For instance, they could evolve under the influence of blessings and curses—this alone put them ahead of the native species by a version.
Maybe this trait could also be absorbed and fully digested.
With this in mind, Hua Mi directed the Yin-Yang Bee towards the sphere of traits.
The sphere was much larger than the bee.
As the Yin-Yang Bee entered the sphere of traits, its small figure was immediately engulfed.
But Hua Mi could sense its state.
Unfortunately, it was the opposite of what he had expected.
Not only was there no sign of the traits being absorbed, but there was also a repelling force.
It seemed like the Yin-Yang Bee's body spontaneously generated a force that rejected the entry of traits.
It was like magnets repelling similar poles.
"Repelling similar poles… maybe because the Yin-Yang Bee itself already possesses traits, and the two traits are repelling each other…"
Thinking of this possibility, Hua Mi sent out an unaltered ordinary Chinese honeybee, controlling it to fly into the sphere.
"This might work."
As soon as the ordinary bee touched the sphere of traits, it surged into the bee's body from all directions, and then…
The bee "burst."
Not in the physical sense, but overwhelmed by the surge of traits, its life force instantly reset to zero.
The traits were then dissected from the bee's corpse, recondensed into a sphere of light.
"From the process, my earlier guess seems correct. The small bee can absorb traits, but just now, the input of traits was too intense. If there's a way to ease this process…"
Hua Mi had a bright idea. He once again grabbed the sphere of traits and allowed it to enter his body.
Then, he released another ordinary bee, letting it rest on his palm.
The first time traits emerged from his body, he felt the process was much smoother.
Perhaps he could act as a rectifier, limiting the rate of trait input.
Similar to before, traits began to emerge from his body.
But instead of condensing into a sphere, they slowly flowed towards the ordinary bee resting in his palm.
Through his mental strength, he could to a certain extent control the flow of traits.
Easy to say, but this process was quite draining mentally.
Although it didn't require significant exertion, it demanded high precision.
Under his control, traits flowed like tiny streams, passing over his body surface, converging towards the ordinary bee in his palm.
Gradually, the small bee began to glow.
Covered in a hazy array of dots of light all over its body.
This process lasted for about 5 minutes.
Hua Mi clearly sensed that the traits were slowly being digested within it.
Finally, when the digestion was complete, the array of light covering the small bee rapidly dimmed.
Revealing a colorful dazzling bee.
A completely new breed of bee was thus born.
However, Hua Mi felt a bit displeased.
The "instructions" that came with the displacement of traits didn't explain it clearly at all.
Making him go through so much trouble to figure it out by himself.
Bad review!
But he quickly shifted his focus to this new bee.
Honestly, its appearance was truly beautiful.
One could say it was the most beautiful among all the bee species currently known.
Its body had a gradient of iridescent luster, including its wings, resembling an artwork crafted from colorful glass!
However, in contrast, its functionality was quite singular.
It could evoke a special magic field, measuring the properties and values of objects within the field. Like a reconnaissance bee, it could relay relevant information to Hua Mi.
In essence, it was akin to mastering the "measuring" trait, but with a bee as a bridge in between.
"Let's call you 'Measuring Bee.'"
The basic attributes of the Measuring Bee were quite ordinary.
[Lifespan: 1]
[Fertility: 1]
[Productivity: 0]
[Attack Power: 1]
[Defense Power: 1]
[Life Force: 1]
[Speed: 0.7]
[Collection Ability: 0]
[Combat Ability: 0.8]
[Tactical Bonus: 5]
Overall assessment: Level 4 bee.
The Measuring Bee had no honey sac, couldn't collect honey, and its attributes were average. It obtained a Level 4 assessment solely due to its special ability.
This analytical ability was extremely useful to him.
If not for the incomplete traits, preventing the analysis of all objects, it could easily be rated as a Level 5 bee.
"Transforming two groups of Measuring Bees should suffice."
Measuring Bees were different from reconnaissance bees.
Only one reconnaissance bee was needed.
The more Measuring Bees, the larger the combined measurement field they could create, leading to more accurate integrated analysis.
Hua Mi decided to temporarily transform two groups of Measuring Bees.
That meant more than twenty thousand Measuring Bees, equivalent to obtaining over twenty thousand samples at once and deriving a conclusion. That was enough.
Speaking of which, could the Void Balance that bestowed traits upon bees be fundamentally similar to blessings?
Thinking along those lines, the Void Balance appeared increasingly complex.
Perhaps it was an existence on par with deities.
But the contradiction was, if it was so powerful, why would it confine itself to a magical artifact in such a restrained manner?
