247 I Will Protect My People
There was some buzzing sound nearby.
Su Wan was puzzled. She turned around to look.
She saw two huge black bees with stingers as long as eight centimeters in length. They descended from the sky and flew around the beehives made by the ordinary bees around her territory.
They used their huge stingers and impaled the ordinary bees. The corpses of the ordinary bees were then carried away.
This made Su Wan angry. ‘You dare touch my bees?!’
She activated the True Eye of the Demon Dragon.

[Potential: rare SSS-class]

[Abilities]

When the number of Night Devil Bees is greater than 1000, the toxicity will be increased by 50%, and flying speed will be increased by 50%.]
[Note: Better not to get stung.]
The Night Devil Bees were very powerful. Not only were they immune to most attacks but they could also regenerate almost indefinitely.
Su Wan had wanted to attack them directly. Now, she had second thoughts. She watched as a few Night Devil Bees killed the ordinary bees and carried their corpses away.
She watched the Night Devil Bees in intrigue. If she could raid their lair, she would definitely find something rare and useful.
It was a rare SSS-class creature. The Fetter-Colony ability had already been activated. Which meant there must be more than a thousand of them in their colony.
Wouldn’t it be reckless to provoke the bees to battle?
Su Wan thought of a way to upend the Night Devil Bees’ hive. If she could manage that, the bees would escape from their beehives on their own. She could then attack them.
However, that would be a difficult thing to do.
She didn’t know if she was a match for the bees. Could she defeat them? Even if she could, how would she ever be able to find their hive in the first place?
After the Night Devil Bees were done with killing the ordinary bees, they escaped with the corpses into the sky at an impossible speed. It was even difficult to see where they were flying to.
She couldn’t even see them early, let alone chase after them.
Besides, the Night Devil Bees were of the SSS-class. Even if she managed to find their lair, she couldn’t fight them. Su Wan needed to ask for Xu Yuan’s help.
An anxious voice sounded a little far away. “Your Majesty, the scouts sent to explore the nearby areas encountered powerful enemies and suffered heavy losses.”
Su Wan and Xu Yuan glanced at each other. They thought maybe the Light-Types had interfered.
Su Wan left the thought of the Night Devil Bess on hold for now and walked outside. A few soldiers were covered in blood. They were in pain.
Su Wan took out some Dragon Drool Grass. “Here. Boil these. Feed the water to the injured soldiers.” She gave a bunch of grass to one of the soldiers.
The soldiers were grateful. They knew how expensive and rare the Dragon Drool Grass was, and yet the Lord was willing to use it to save them. She could’ve just as easily killed them and asked Xu Yuan to resurrect them to full health. However, Su Wan wanted them to survive.
The injured soldier’s eyes turned red. He bowed to Su Wan and accepted the Dragon Drool Grass.
Several soldiers, who could still stand, placed the Dragon Drool Grass in a pot of water and put it to boil. They then fed the water to the wounded soldiers.
After the fatally injured soldiers drank the water, their breathing stabilized. They weren’t in agony anymore.
When the others saw this, they were amazed. They had heard that the Dragon Drool Grass was extraordinary, but they hadn’t expected it to be so effective.
The soldiers gazed at Su Wan. They began to respect her more as a leader.
Usually, they ignored her and only listened to Xu Yuan. They felt that he was the most important and powerful one in the territory. However, they now realized why Su Wan was the Lord and not Xu Yuan. She was courageous as well as compassionate.
Xu Yuan was impressed as well. He nodded at her in acknowledgment.
“What happened?” he asked.
The Night Elf King stepped forward. “They were attacked by a terrifying monster. They were lucky to have escaped. The first two Night Elves I sent are dead.”
Xu Yuan frowned. “Do you know the exact location of this monster?”
The words caused some whispering among the soldiers.
“Your Majesty, the ones who attacked us were sent by the Light-Types. The creatures… had chains in their hands attached to battle axes. They were terrifying. The two Night Elves didn’t stand a chance.”
The soldier who had answered was a little hesitant. “But Your Majesty, you don’t need to—”
“All those who harm my people will pay the price,” said Xu Yuan. “I will protect my people, no matter what the cost!”
The troops were protected by Xu Yuan. The troops who had died had done so for the territory. They were heroes!
Xu Yuan’s gaze swept across the soldiers. “I will bring them back and bury them as heroes!”
Xu Yuan was not just a king who commanded his troops without a thought. He was prepared for casualties and would do anything to minimize them.
Su Wan nodded. She felt that this could also turn out to be an opportunity to examine the battle axes of the Light-Types.
The crowd fell silent. No one spoke. However, their hearts were full of gratitude. They looked at Xu Yuan and Su Wan with respect and loyalty in their hearts. How many of the other Overlords and heroes would do this for their troops?
They were the lowest of the troops and were usually used as cannon fodders. However, Xu Yuan and Su Wan were willing to fight for them!
No one had expected such a situation.
“Your Majesty…” Scarlen looked at Xu Yuan in admiration and respect.
He turned to the Night Elves. “All Night Elves, heed my words! You must always remain loyal to Lord Su Wan and His Majesty, Xu Yuan, no matter what! Never even think about betraying them!”
Scarlen stood tall and proud. The crowd cheered. Their hearts were full of emotion.
