When Bloodimina sent a small detachment of ten thousand bees with rifles to scout the contested territories, she secretly worried this might not work out.
Creatures that lived there had sharp senses and eventually found out even the stealthiest Commando Bees, and there were too many of them for an ordinary strike team to fight their way through.
Bloodimina's plan was to go the opposite way—with shock and awe. The loud rifles would teach the beasts to flee in fear instead of running toward the noise of gunshots—it already worked well on insects near the camp. Even the dumbest of them reflexively ran away from noises that were so loud.
But in another place, things could still be different…
In the end, Bloodimina's worries were unfounded.
Just seven days later, the scouts returned with the first good news! Despite some people dying in battle, most of them returned with only flesh wounds, including the leader of the detachment.
