Chapter 82 Holy Light Honey (Fourth Update)

A book, a cup of tea.

Leo lay in the chair until three o'clock in the afternoon before he felt an itch in his palm, and a familiar warm sensation came through.

"They've finally arrived!"

The warm guide pointed southeast of the manor. Outside the fence, without any guards, Leo rode his horse across the fence alone. The monsters in the vicinity had all been wiped out by Pluto and his men, so it was very safe.

It can now be said that there are no more shadow monsters around the Swamp Manor, and knights like Pluto have to travel a long way to hunt them.

Before long, we arrived at the source of the warm guidance.

It was a dimly lit plant.

"It looks like cyclamen, um, it's a cyclamen var. var. var. var." With its large leaves and rabbit-ear-like petals, Leo quickly recognized the variety of this var. ...

Compared to the luminous plants cultivated in the Magic Crystal Field, wild luminous plants are much dimmer.

He reached out to touch it and immediately heard the excited message of the flower: "Honey, honey, it smells like holy light honey. The scent wafting from nearby is so wonderful."

"Holy Light Honey?"

Leo stood up and sniffed the air carefully for a while: "I can't smell anything. Is the cyclamen plant's nose that sensitive? How come I can't smell anything? Right, I can use Knight's Perception, let's try it!"

Leo immediately channeled his holy light energy, resonating with the holy light elements in the outside world, and sensed them for about three minutes.

Finally, they detected a trace of unusual holy light element.

Mixed in with the free holy light elements, it spread outwards like waves.

"Yes, this is the taste of Holy Light Honey." Leo closed his eyes and followed the wave pattern to its source. Finally, he found the source of Holy Light Honey a mile away and immediately rode there.

I saw a big tree.

It is not a light plant.

On a branch of a large tree, a faint light was discovered; it was the light emanating from a giant beehive.

"It glows! Without a doubt, the Holy Light Honey comes from here!" Leo didn't rush to take action. Instead, he marked the location of the big tree and then decisively returned to the Swamp Manor.

Upon returning to the castle, he immediately instructed his manservant Thomas: "There's a beekeeper among the serfs, I remember his name is Hal, nicknamed Honey Hal. Go and fetch him."

"Yes, young master."

Thomas quickly found the beekeeper Mihar, who was hanging around the Spring Crystal Fields, investigating the pollen of the Light Plants and planning to raise bees near the Crystal Fields to produce Light Plant honey.

This is much more valuable than regular honey.

"Young master, Mihar has arrived," Thomas reported.

Mihar was slightly hunched over and looked somewhat dull: "Young Master Leo, is there something you need?"

How are your bees doing?

"Uh, we just bought the beehives and queen bee, so we're only just getting started," Mihar replied. "We can't harvest honey yet."

O

He thought Leo wanted to eat honey.

Leo, however, asked, "Would you raise wild bees?"

"Young Master Leo, the bees we raise are all queen bees we find in the wild. The offspring of wild queen bees are healthier and stronger, and the honey they make tastes better."

"That's good." Leo nodded. "I found a large beehive outside the manor, and the bees inside are Holy Light Bees. I plan to bring this hive back and raise them. Are you confident you can raise them successfully?"

"Holy Light Bees?" A hint of excitement appeared on Mihar's usually expressionless face. "My God, by the Holy Light, I've never seen Holy Light Bees before—Young Master Leo, I... I can try raising them!"

"Then come with me, let's go to the site and take a look." Leo led Mihar directly to the large tree at the marked location.

We arrived at the scene.

Mihar scrambled up the tree trunk, approached the hive, and carefully examined it with the gas-powered lantern. After a moment, he exclaimed, "Young Master Leo, you can raise them! These are just ordinary wild bees, only they've become Holy Light bees!"

"Then let's take it back and raise it!" Leo laughed.

In order to bring the hive back, Mihar called his wife and two sons who were almost adults.

The family of four quickly cut open the beehive, stuffed the combs containing pupae into the hive, and also separated the queen bee and put her into the hive.

During this process, the Holy Light Bees buzzed around wildly, but did not attack Mihar's family.

This made Leo very curious: "Mihal, why don't the bees sting you?"

"In response to Young Master Leo, these are native bees, which don't sting much. Besides, I cut the hive into large pieces and put the whole swarm into the hive, so their home is still there, and the queen bee is still there. They don't feel like they've been harmed."

Since they weren't harmed, the bumblebees wouldn't sting people indiscriminately.

It's just moving house.

After putting all the Holy Light honeybees into the hive, Mihar began to harvest the honeycomb for storing honey. He harvested about ten pounds of Holy Light honey, which filled two large earthenware jars, and this was only half of what he had harvested.

The remaining half was left in the hive as food for the Holy Light Earth Bees; we couldn't let them starve.

Sustainable development is essential.

"From now on, the territory will have no shortage of honey, and it will be Holy Light honey." Leo happily carried two jars of Holy Light honey back to Sunflower Castle, the fragrant aroma of honey filling the entire castle.

He immediately ordered Butler Dirk: "Bring eleven cups."

"Yes, young master."

After the cups were brought over, Leo scooped out honey from the earthenware jar, about two ounces of honey into each cup.

There were three cups, and I scooped out two spoonfuls, which is about four ounces.

After packing, he handed it to Butler Deck: "Seal it and give it to the knights. This is an extra ration of Lightbearer rations."

The knights, who followed Leo, naturally received wages.

Besides wages, there's the quota for Lightbringer rations. Without Lightbringer rations, knights can't cultivate by refining Holy Light from ordinary food; it's too little. Only by consuming Lightbringer rations can they strengthen their Holy Light Battle Aura.

"As for the rest of the honey, keep it safe for me." Leo grinned; it was all his.

Honey is a highly nutritious food.

These Holy Light Honeys are especially beneficial for knights. Leo believes that consuming these two jars of Holy Light Honey will have an effect roughly equivalent to a handful of sunflower seeds.

"Taking drugs is my path to spiritual cultivation!" Before sealing the jar, Leo scooped out two ounces of honey and ate it himself.

My stomach felt warm, just like when I was eating sunflower seeds.

It's just not as potent as sunflower seeds.

"But the advantage is that it's long-term. Once Mihar has successfully raised the Holy Light Earth Bees, he can harvest Holy Light Honey continuously." Leo licked his lips, took a sip of water to rinse his mouth, and then got up to head to the Spring Crystal Field.

The Mihar family is busy tidying up their beehives.

The original common bees have been moved away; I plan to take them to the Firefly Town to sell them sometime.

With the Holy Light Bumblebee, there's no need for ordinary bumblebees to compete for nectar.

"My lord," Oden said with a憨憨 smile, "Blessed by the Holy Light, Holy Light Honey is a rare commodity."

"Yes, I've already had Butler Deck allocate some Holy Light Honey as an extra portion of Holy Light rations. You can get some to try later," Leo said. "The apiary will be located here. Please cooperate with Mihar and make proper arrangements for the apiary."

Auden's mouth was already watering: "Yes, sir!"

Leo watched the Mihar family busy at work, and saw the Holy Light Bees going in and out of the hives, and felt great.

The Holy Light Bees can produce such good Holy Light Honey even in the wild. Now that they are placed next to the Magic Crystal Field, they can collect nectar from the Light Plant flowers every day. The Holy Light Honey they produce will definitely be of even better quality.
