When I opened the first menu, I noticed the extra Hive Points, but I wasn't overly surprised by them. I was impressed by how many people had been leveling up, and it seems I received points at different level achievements for each Class.

Hilda had been managing my windows because they started to become overwhelming when I was trying to have a conversation. Since I probably didn't have a lot of extra time, I quickly selected the Hive Shop but then got four more options.

[Hive Shop]

<God Gacha>

<Royal Hive Shop>

<Royal Subject Shop>

<Hive Guardian Shop>

Gacha was a term used in Japan for vending machines that gave out different prizes, but there were also more rare types that you could get. The chances of getting one of the more rare ones were far less than the other types.

I decided that I would check out the Gacha systems after I had done with the others if I had time. This was not the time to be gambling with the future of the Hive at stake.

[Royal Hive Shop]

<Royal Attack Drones>3 (10 HP Per Drone)

<Royal Attack Drone Rank> 1 (HP cost= Rank)

<Royal Wife Limit> 4/5 (5 HP Per Wife)

<Royal Subject Limit> 111/200 (10 HP Per 50 Subjects)

<????>

<????>

<????>

Nothing here would give me any kind of advantage, but it was essential to know about the subject cost to get more space. While fifty seemed like you got a lot for ten HP, it was only a good deal because the villages were small.

If I had tried to take on something like the Ant Folk or Goblins first, I might have run out of room faster. So, I would have to keep that in mind going forward if I hoped to stand a chance in this world.

If The Queen of Bees had that many troops at her disposal, it would be fair to assume that there were even larger forces with some of the other races. I closed the Royal Hive shop while also taking note of my almost full Royal Wife Slots.

[Subject Shop]

(5 HP Per Subject Point)

<Stamina>0

<Strength>0

<Speed>0

<Intelligence>0

<Productivity>1(Minor Green Growth Blessing Bonus +1)

<????>

<????>

"Hey, look at this blessing go! The old witch did something!" I exclaimed out loud, and the girls laughed at me. "I don't think I should use points here yet; they will be things to try after or maybe come back to."

"Yes, I don't think that with our current forces, even if you put all the points you have into speed and strength, we would still get overwhelmed," Miasma said, and I agreed.

We needed something more escape-oriented or could defend us if we needed to, but I needed to hurry up. Hilda had a small map of the area going, and I could see that people were almost entirely out of the village, which meant it would be time to leave soon.

From there, we would be over the Nightmare Falls in less than fifteen minutes, not giving me a lot of time to ponder. The last shop was the one that I thought would provide me with the best results for what I was looking for.

[Royal Guardian Shop]

< Beezli's Gravity Bees>0 (50 HP Per Level with an incremental increase of 50xLevel)

[Beezli's Gravity Bees]: Summon Swarm of Divine Gravity Bees to create a repelling gravitational field 15 meters around the Royal Hive Flying Fortress perimeter. This prevents Non-Royal Subjects from coming within 115 meters of the Royal Hive Flying Fortress.

Yes, take my money, you filthy machine! I was at fifty-three points, and these were perfect and just what I needed.

Something like this wouldn't make us invincible against everything, and I had to think of what else this meant. If I was getting a crazy boost, I could bet my ass that the few others that were in this world already had far deadlier things from the systems that they had.

"What do you girls think?" I asked more out of politeness to the two, but they both shook their heads no at me, and that was fair.

[Beezli's Gravity Bees] Activated!

[Beezli's Gravity Bees] Rank 1 Acquired!

Nothing besides that happened, which was disappointing. I was hoping to get a summoned pet like Hilda around.

*Poof*

"Everyone is loaded, and we are ready to take off, but I don't think that this PET can fly the ship!" Hilda buzzed angrily at me.

"Sure, I will just pull up the map; there we go, yup ship is set and moving," I said, grinning foolishly as I set the Hive's course and set it on the way to the location directly above the Nightmare Falls.

"What?" Hilda asked while doing a slow-motion barrel roll of confusion through the air.

"I'm kidding, Hilda! I don't think you're a pet, but you remind me of a cute pet when you are in the Boxy Bee form like this. I am sorry, and I will stop making references to it. I am going to quickly look at the Gacha option; I am up to five points, so maybe I could try whatever it is," I said apologetically to Hilda, but she just disappeared.

Looks like I must have hit a sore spot with Hilda, and I hadn't meant to, but I needed to check this last thing out. I could see from the small map that we were nearing our destination.

[God Gacha]

<Bee-Gatcha> 100 HP Per attempt.

...Steep like a wall, and absolutely no information at all. At this point, it was just best to save the remaining points and keep them to put into other things like Royal Wives and Subjects when I needed them.

I leaned in and kissed Miasma before pushing her to get off my lap so I could get up. I wanted to go up top and talk with the boys briefly and everyone else heading down.

I got up and took Miasma's hand before lifting off the ground, sad to be leaving Serria's comforting presence. I had told her that she would be needed, and the others would come to get her when it was time.

As I left with Miasma, I found myself hoping for a shiny suit of armor and rocket launchers on my shoulders so I could go outside and play with the others. Hopes and wishes, but with the Mecha Gene, who knew what might happen, hehe.
