Epic of Bee

Chapter 187 Shadow Walkers Assemble!



Instantly, a chart appeared as a message in my HUD… I had a heads-up display now? I wasn\'t sure if I hadn\'t noticed it before or if it had just appeared, but more than likely, I would have seen it there.

*Poof!*

"The HUD will only appear when you need it, but you now have full access to the ship from anywhere within one mile of it. You will also be able to pull up maps and your subjects and use the intercom from anywhere within range," Hilda explained to me after flying out of the white clouds.

[New subject: Nala]| [Class: DoctaBee Healer]| [New Gene: Life Magic]

[New subject:Seshia]| [Class: Apothecary]| [New Gene: Herbalist]

[New subject:Diamona]| [Class:Toxin Mage]| [New Gene: Poison Magic]

Only three of them showed up, and that would mean that I already had the Genes and Class for the rest. The small little things that my evolution had given me were really starting to add up in a positive way.

"Perfect! I think that you will all fit in very well, but I am going to have to leave you all now. Serria, can you join me to go see Gamble? I will call the five Shadow Walkers to meet us down there, but I want you there with me. Miasma, I will assume that you have already had some talks with Gamble about the Threads?" I asked her, and she nodded to me.

"Yes, I will go with Messia and explain what I know, and we will get the Snake Folk settled in," Miasma said, and I nodded with a smile and then walked over to them.

"I know that we haven\'t got to spend a lot of time with each other since I woke up, but there was a reason that you all woke me up early. After everything has cooled down, we will take some time to have a short vacation if we can," I said to M&M and then kissed both of them.

"No, it is okay, and we more than understand. Like you said, we needed you back to do all these things that only you can do. I just hope that you can get back to me as soon as you can to help with Lexia," Messia said, and I nodded.

"As soon as I have secured Pendra, both Serria and I will drop out of the Drones and set them to follow Tag and Sig back. I want to say that it won\'t take very long, but I have no way of telling if that is the truth or not, but I am hoping that Gamble will help shed some light on this," I explained, but Miasma had a worried look on her face.

"I hope that it doesn\'t take very long, but you will find out about this when you talk to Gamble, so I would make you hear the same thing twice so you can get going," Miasma said, giving me a weak smile.

That gave me pause for a second, but Miasma was right, and I didn\'t have time to hear things twice. I had even less if there was something that could happen at Lexia\'s Hive.

I nodded and turned around, offering my hand to Serria and then walking back to the Honey Gate after she accepted it. Tag and Sig were both standing at attention, waiting for us, and as soon as we reached them, Tag went through, and then Sig waited to follow as we entered before him.

Instantly, I was walking into a busy area with people moving around everywhere, but I was surprised by how quiet it was. The way that everyone rushed around seemed like chaos at first, but after a moment of studying them, I could see that it was almost like an elegant dance of some kind.

"My Queen, Serria, please follow me into my office. It is a lot less noisy there, and it will be easier to show you what you have come to see from there," Gamble said from a place beside me that I couldn\'t see, startling me.

"Jeebus! Don\'t do that! I was distracted by the transfixing scene in front of me. How do you keep everyone moving so fluidly without everyone running into each other?" I asked in amazement as I continued to look around.

"I made specific plans for everyone, and then I gave them counters to keep track of when they should be moving. Now everyone is able to move around without trouble, and we can get a lot more done, but I will be requesting four more Hex-Combs in the future for our expansion, but enough about that! We have more important matters to discuss right now," Gamble explained as he turned and motioned up to follow.

"Shadow Walkers, can you please come down to the Manufacturing. I am meeting with Gamble now," I said after activating the intercom system that prompted itself once I thought of what I wanted to do.

Before I had even finished speaking, four of the five appeared, but Will and John were the first two. Then the girls, who were followed by Bob that came running out of the Honey Gate.

"Here as you requested, my Queen," Will said, a bit too formally, so I frowned at him.

"What is with the stiffness? I don\'t want you to start acting like some robot now! I just want you to make more responsible decisions, but I am glad that you decided to remove the Maid outfit," I said while trying not to laugh.

"Sorry, I just want to make sure that I do better for you this time. I had a lot of time to think while I cleaned, and I want to do better, considering that everyone is working so hard. It made me think that I was taking this all for granted that you have given the other Raccoon Folk and me," Will explained, and I nodded.

"That is all that I ask. Now, come with me so we can figure out just how hard our tasks are going to be and what the chances of us completing them are," I said as I motioned for Miku and Rixie to come to join Serria and me as we walked over Gambles office.
