Chapter 1559 Calamity Beetle
Curiosity and thirst for knowledge, beyond the original intention of collecting criminal evidence, completely occupied Joan's mind.
Under his secret watch, the Wasp freed her right hand and touched the storage bag hanging around her neck, and then there was an extra staff in her hand, with a hollow amber ball inlaid on the head of the staff.
Joan recognized at a glance that it was the "Swarm Staff" that Wasp used to, which could be used to summon the "Insect Cloud", cast the 4-ring "Giant Worm Art" or the 5-ring "Plague Swarm".
The amber inlaid on the top of the wand can strengthen spells related to "insects", which is considered a standard configuration for this type of magic device - for example, Joan's own "giant insect wand" is also inlaid with an amber ball.
Joan remembered that when she met the Wasp for the first time on the top of Mount Bailun last year, the amber ball inlaid on the top of the "Swarm Staff" was red in color, as if it was full of blood.
Now that the staff is still in her hands, the amber ball at the head of the staff has turned into an ordinary beeswax color, and there is a cavity the size of a walnut inside the ball, and a small amount of red liquid remains at the bottom of the cavity inside the ball.
The Wasp held the stick in her right hand, brought the amber ball close to her lips, and softly recited a mantra, and a gap opened automatically at the top of the amber ball.
She smiled slightly, and approached the staff with the small ball of devil's blood that was dragged by her left hand.
The blood clot seemed to be attracted by some mysterious force, turned into a red light, automatically penetrated into the gap at the top of the amber ball, and merged into the cavity inside the ball.
The Wasp recited another incantation, and the gap at the top of the amber ball slowly closed, returning to a round and smooth shape without gaps.
The amber ball filled with the devil's blood essence changed from beeswax color to scarlet red. When the Wasp shook the staff lightly, the blood in the ball swayed with it, showing a magnificent and evil sparkle.
A satisfied smile appeared on the corners of Wasp's lips, and she swung her staff again to cast a spell, and the amber ball radiated scarlet magic radiance.
Spots of light appeared in the sky, and at the same time, there was a buzzing noise, and a large group of Yellow Spring Bees was summoned to her by Jenny.
Joan was no stranger to the scene in front of him.
At the top of Mount Bailun back then, Wasp Girl also used her staff to cast "Plague Swarm" and summoned a large group of Huangquan bees.
With the level of magic power of the "Plague Swarm", it would be impossible to summon so many Huangquan bees, let alone make the summoned creatures last for several days, if the normal method of casting was used.
The reason why the Wasp was able to achieve this unconventional operation was that when she cast the spell, she used an additional special material that could strengthen the power of the "Plague Swarm".
That's right, this special spell-casting material is the essence of life extracted from the blood of the devil.
Joan suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the Wasp specially summoned a little devil just now, and also used the "doom beetle" to drain the opponent's blood and condense the essence of life. Casting materials.
Under his secret watch, Wasp stimulated all 10 energies stored in the staff in one breath, and cast "Plague Swarm" 5 times in total, and the total number of Huangquan bees summoned was no less than 500, surrounding her Buzzing and hovering, like a cloud mixed with red and black.
The Wasp waved her hand, and all the Huangquan bees immediately obeyed her will, forming more than 40 minimal primary clusters in groups of 12.
The Wasp raised her staff and pointed out of the woods. All the Huangquan bee swarms roared in unison, flew out of the woods, and dispersed in clusters.
It's not difficult for Joan to imagine that these bee colonies have just accepted the appointment of the Wasp, and then they will look for large dinosaurs suitable as hosts in the area around Lake Aosta, parasitize them in each other's bodies, and lurk until the hostess blows the assembly call that moment.
The Wasp exhausted the magic power of the "Swarm Staff", and the devil's blood essence stored in the amber ball at the head of the staff also ran out.
It is conceivable that when the magic staff is refilled tomorrow, Wasp will repeat her tricks, cheating a little devil to kill her, absorbing the essence and blood into the amber ball, and then starting a new round of summoning the bee swarm.
According to her method of operation, in just one week, she can control nearly 300 dinosaurs and magical beasts through the Huangquan bee colony, gathering together an army of giant beasts that can attack the three towns by the lake at the same time!
At this point, Joan was convinced that he had grasped all the details of the conspiracy, and quickly picked up the camera to record the scene of the Wasp calling the swarm.
Wiping the cold sweat off his forehead, Joan felt both disgust and admiration for Wasp's behavior.
Her motivation for this behavior is of course evil, but Joan also has to admit that her criminal methods are very technical and worth learning from—of course, she is only learning from her spellcasting skills, not imitating her criminal behavior.
Joan has long known that special substances such as "devil's blood essence" can be used to strengthen certain spells, but such materials are usually difficult to obtain, so he has always felt that using the blood essence of devils or other alien creatures to strengthen spells This approach, while theoretically possible, is not practical.
Seeing the demonstration of the Wasp girl today, Joan was deeply inspired, and suddenly realized that the "Oath from Otherworld" spell can not only be used to create constructs, but also be used to obtain otherworldly creatures such as devils, demons, angels, and elementals. The flesh, bones, internal organs, and other tissues and organs are used as materials for casting spells or alchemy.
It is indeed a bit cruel to lure alien creatures to come and kill them, but alien creatures such as devils and demons are not good things in themselves, and murdering them does not need to feel morally wrong, and it can even be called a Pile against evil deeds of goodness.
The more Joan thought about it, the more excited he became. He quickly opened his precious little book and recorded the inspirations that The Wasp brought to him, and saved it for in-depth research in his spare time. Maybe he could write a paper on this topic.
After the Wasp released the swarm, she returned to Peter and Sean.
Qiao An switched the viewing angle from the "remote sensing viewpoint" to the area locked by the "detection technique", intending to eavesdrop on what the three worms were talking about.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, followed by the childish greeting from "Miss Ruby".
"Brother Joan, are you up yet?"
Joan opened the door and invited Ruby to come in.
Little Lolita saw the crystal ball on the table at a glance, and curiously leaned over to have a look, her face suddenly full of astonishment.
"Hey! Mr. Peter, in the mirror! And Mr. Xiao En and Sister Jenny... What are they doing?"
"Doing something bad."
"What's wrong?" Little Lolita asked in confusion.
"It's hard to say clearly in one or two sentences, Ruby, are Pinkerton and the others up?"
"Everyone is getting up. Sister Audrey sent me over to find you, saying it's a lunch gathering."
"Wait for the dinner party first, you go and call Audrey and the others, I have something very important to discuss with everyone." Joan said seriously.
