Super Zoo

Chapter 456 451

Suming sat on the back of the giant turtle, casually tapping its shell with a piece of conch shell.

The moment the conch shell came into contact with the thick shell of the giant turtle, another attracting force emanated from it!

In that instant, Suming even had the illusion that this attraction was reminding him to channel his spiritual power into the conch shell.

The conch shell was like a mischievous little girl, whose thoughts were utterly unpredictable. Since it provided such a clear hint, Suming, of course, wouldn't miss it!

With less than one-fifth of his spiritual power remaining, Suming quickly clutched the conch shell in his palm and poured his spiritual power into it without reservation.

The giant turtle turned its head, looking at Suming with confusion, not knowing what this person was sneakily up to on its back.

"What are you looking at? What harm could I possibly do to you? Stay still!" Suming tapped the turtle's head, but internally he wondered oddly whether the conch shell's activity was related to the giant turtle.

Within a few seconds, the remaining bit of spiritual power in Suming's body had been completely absorbed by the conch shell, which clearly hadn't been satisfied.

Only the honey of the large blue bee could quickly replenish spiritual power, and with no other options, Suming could only wait anxiously in the Whisperwind Pavilion for the bee transport team to return as soon as possible.

By a little past eight in the evening, after dark, a vast 'cloud' appeared in the night sky outside the pavilion – the team transporting honey had finally arrived!

After learning that Suming needed a large amount of honey, the two Queen Bees from Hundred Flowers Valley took out their treasured stash: the honey transported this time wasn't ordinary honey but baskets full of rich Queen Bee jelly! Read new chapters at My Virtual Library Empire

Queen Bee jelly had a much stronger effect on replenishing spiritual power than the large blue bee honey, finally allowing Suming to avoid the danger of 'honey poisoning.'

Similarly, the yield of Queen Bee jelly was much lower than that of honey; apart from Suming, it was usually only enjoyed by the two Queen Bees.

Groups of large wasps, carrying little honeycombs filled with Queen Bee jelly, landed inside the pavilion. After setting down their cargo, they formed ranks in the air like well-trained soldiers, saluting Suming with a flap of their wings, and then turned to leave.

The Queen Bee jelly soon accumulated like a small hill in the pavilion's hall. To fulfill Suming's request as much as possible, the two Queen Bees had made a significant sacrifice by saving up their own rations for him.

In addition to honey, the leading squad captain also brought the greetings of the two Queen Bees: they hoped Suming would find time to visit Hundred Flowers Valley.

"Uh... alright, alright, I'll try to find the time and definitely visit," Suming became somewhat embarrassed. If it weren't for the Queen Bees' invitation, he would have almost forgotten when he last visited Hundred Flowers Valley. Half a year had passed, and while he had left the bees and wasps in the valley without much contact, the two Queen Bees never cut his honey supply. He should visit when he had the time, to see how Hundred Flowers Valley had developed.

It was also strange when one thought about it; even if the Queen Bees' wings had degenerated and they couldn't fly, they had so many subordinates who could have easily carried them to the zoo. If he didn't visit, could they not come? Besides, with so many wasps as their 'escort,' as long as they didn't encounter a human army, there would be no danger along the way.

Never mind that for now. If need be, he could take a plane to Hundred Flowers Valley later to check things out. The priority was to understand the function of the conch shell.

Clutching a beehive that looked like a landmine, Suming bit into it, guzzling down the Queen Bee jelly inside, and then, like an anteater, extended his tongue to lick the hive clean... Nangong always said Suming had a way with sweet words, but today Suming was truly the embodiment of sweetness, his mouth sweetened for the entire day, sickeningly sweet.

With the Queen Bee jelly consumed and his energy fully replenished, Suming felt much more vigorous. He placed the conch shell on the back of the giant turtle and continued the infusion.

The whole process was quick, and in just a few seconds, the conch shell was charged once again.

Finally, a brand new sphere of light appeared once more in Suming's consciousness.

"Yes!" Suming gave a vigorous fist pump, filled with anticipation as he proceeded to observe the new light sphere.

The 'light sphere' looked identical in size and shape to the initial energy storage sphere, emitting the same milky-white glow.

However, while the first energy storage sphere was entirely pure milky-white, the newly formed 'light sphere' seemed to contain a faint shadow.

Suming focused his concentration, trying to discern the details, and that shadow turned out to be a giant turtle, almost identical to the one beside him.

The first energy storage sphere was for storing spiritual power, but what about this one with the shadow of an alligator turtle? What was its purpose?

He hesitated for a moment, then tried to break the sphere!

…Nothing happened. The spiritual power he had used up wasn't replenished in the slightest.

But immediately after, a deep call seemed to echo in his ears, a voice that seemed to come from ancient times, filled with untamed power!

Suming was startled and involuntarily took several steps back, stumbling over the threshold of the Whisperwind Pavilion, and fell backward to the ground.

A grown man of over a hundred pounds falling backward without any protection could end up with the back of his head hitting the ground, possibly becoming a vegetative state if unlucky, or at least get seriously dizzy from the impact.

Unable to control his balance mid-fall, he desperately twisted his body in the midst of the chaos, trying to land on his side instead. It was better to injure an arm than his head.

It happened in the blink of an eye: Suming had already hit the ground.

The floor was made of marble, and when it collided with his body, it made a crisp sound, not at all like what you would expect from skin meeting marble. It sounded more like two very hard objects crashing into each other.

To Suming's amazement, the fall didn't hurt as much as he had anticipated.

Strictly speaking, it didn't hurt at all! He only felt the touch of the cool marble floor through the skin.

"Could my pain nerves have snapped from the fall?!"

Pain is one of the body's important self-protection functions. For example, if your hand touches fire, it immediately retracts; if your stomach hurts, it usually means there's a problem with the intestines, maybe diarrhea...

Without the sense of pain, it might sound like a cool ability, but in reality, it could be deadly, not even knowing how one might die.

He quickly lifted his arm to check it, and the part that hit the ground wasn't injured at all.

He tried hitting the floor with his arm again.

'Thud,' the arm was fine, no pain;

He put a bit more force into it, still no pain;

He used fifty percent of his strength, and this time, it finally began to hurt a little;

Throwing caution to the wind, he put all his strength into it, elbow slamming down into the floor mercilessly.

Bang!

Holy moly! That hurt so much, he almost cried!

And what was even more shocking was that there was a shallow white mark on the marble floor from Suming's elbow!

Suming was flabbergasted, his eyes wide with disbelief.

After a long moment, he suddenly jumped up from the ground and let out a loud shout.

"Damn it, it's not that I've lost my pain sensation; I've become stronger!"
