My 100th Rebirth a day before the Apocalypse novel Chapter 123

After receiving the visuals from the bees, Kisha led her team down the building and directly outside. No one questioned their sudden change of course, having already experienced Kisha’s expertise in leading them through the safest routes like a human radar. Most of them understood it was largely thanks to the bees acting as their scouts.

However, the mystery of how Kisha controlled the bees remained a lingering question for many.

Despite these questions, no one asked Kisha directly, trusting her judgment as they trusted their master, Duke. Once they made their way to the streets, their journey became smoother. They no longer needed Vulture to conjure earth bridges from one building to another, which had previously consumed both time and spiritual energy.

Due to the continuous battles and the frequent use of their awakened abilities, their foundations have gradually grown stronger and firmer. If this growth continues, Kisha expects that she, Duke, and Mrs. Winters could start leveling up in a few days, progressing faster than Sparrow and Vulture.

However, before attempting to level up, Kisha wanted to experiment with the Scarlet Honey again. This would have to wait until they returned to the shelter. As they continued moving toward the outer layer, they encountered fewer zombies, facing no more than a dozen at a time.

These smaller groups were easier to handle, taking Kisha only ten seconds to deal with, and the Scarlet Bees just a second to dig out the crystal cores and return them to her.

Kisha had now collected hundreds of Level 0 crystal cores while Bell was munching on a core from time to time like a snack. Unlike Kisha and the rest of the team, Bell didn’t seem to need to process the energy in its body after leveling up, which didn’t affect its foundation. This allowed Bell to consume the crystal cores and level up again within just a few days.

Kisha wondered if this was due to Bell’s constitution as a Mythic Grade Beast, or perhaps because the small amount of spiritual energy inside the crystal cores was insufficient to even stir its energy reserve. Another possibility was that Bell, having originated from a world where spiritual energy was abundant, could easily acclimate itself to her world.

No matter how hard Kisha thought about it, she couldn’t fully understand Bell’s origins or how things worked in its world. She could only speculate and ensure that consuming the crystal cores wasn’t negatively affecting Bell’s growth or foundation. After confirming with Bell that it was safe, Kisha allowed it to continue munching on the cores.

She also experimented to see if the Scarlet Honey would have the same effect on Bell, hoping it could benefit from the multiplier. Unfortunately, it didn’t work that way for Bell. Since Bell’s constitution was already exceptional from the beginning, the Scarlet Honey didn’t have any additional effect beyond being a natural food for Bell and the other Scarlet Bees.

So, in essence, the crystal cores that she and the rest saved up thanks to the multiplier from the Scarlet Honey would all go to Bell instead. Kisha didn’t know whether to laugh or cry upon realizing this crucial information.

"Master, actually, there are other ways to increase my growth, similar to how the Scarlet Honey affects humans and beasts," Bell interjected with Kisha’s thoughts as it hovered over her head while they ran through the streets.

"What do you mean, Bell? Do we have other alternatives?" Kisha asked, her eyes lighting up with interest.
