Epic of Bee

Chapter 106 Pen Fifteen Club

After I was done with Talli, I turned back to see what trouble the girls were getting up to, but they were both looking over the Flying Royal Hive Fortress. As I walked up, I noticed that they were switching back and forth between the two options.

The first was the same as the Needle Gatling Guns on the Royal Bee Drones, but they kind of looked weird at rest, hanging a bit awkwardly. The other option was just pointed spikes with balls on the tips that also have lightning coming out of them, no biggie.

Tesla Coils, they made it look like this ship had just moved into The Jeston's. There was lightning coming out of the top of the ship, which must be good; it also looked like a Queen's crown.

"I really hope that all those sparks aren't just for display," I said as the girls turned to me with excited smiles.

"See, I told you she wouldn't like the limp pecker guns. The supreme crown of the Queen's Royal flagship!" Miku said with a cheer that made both me and Rixie roll our eyes.

That's why they looked so familiar; no wonder I didn't like them! Nothing attractive about a crown of wet noodles going around your head.

"What makes them as good or better than the pen fifteen club guns?" I asked, but Rixie put up her hand cutely, so I nodded to her with a smile.

"What's the Pen Fifteen club? Is it a private organization? I thought I was away from most of the ones you should have heard of, but I am very interested in this Pen Fifteen. The name sounds mysterious; I wonder who they are affiliated with?" Rixie said rhetorically; she was off in her own world as she got into the idea of the… Pen Fifteen club.

Meanwhile, Miku and I had our hands clamped over our mouths, praying to everything known and unknown god out that our eyes didn't pop out of our heads. Miku was the one who couldn't keep her laughter in anymore, and she burst out.

"What are you laughing about? Is it really that big? How did something like this just pop up? Did it just grow up from the shadows so swiftly? I feel naive not knowing this, and I ask that you don't speak to Ryan of my failing! This could be what I have been missing in my life!" Rixie said with excitement as she started to romanticize all her fictional ideas.

I was having trouble breathing at this point, and my sides and face hurt from laughing and smiling so much. Miku looked like she was about to go down, but she caught the table as tears rolled down her cheeks.

"ALRIGHT! WHAT IS SO DAMN FUNNY!" Rixie shouted, but that just made it worse.

I was at the point where I don't think that I could handle any more laughter. I was going to burst or strangle myself with nonstop laughter, but finally, the two of us got ourselves under control.

"Spell pen one five in the air, and you will see what we are laughing at," I said, but I refused to look at Miku while I watched her; my sides couldn't take anymore.

As Rixie spelled out the word, I watched her face go through many emotions as she said it, and then I began to smile.  There was first shock, then embarrassment, but then suspicion set in, and at that point both of us got a glare at the same time.

"Are you two overgrown children?" Rixie asked in disbelief.

"Whenever we are permitted, the rest of the time we have to be stuffy adults with responsibilities!" Miku said as she ran over and tickled Rixie.

As they were messing around, I looked over the stats for the two weapons. The pen15 gun was just like the Royal Fighter Drones, and with the drones, it didn't make sense to have two things that did the same thing.

The Tesla Coils or the Crown Points looked better, and they could provide close-range protection for when something broke through my Grava-Bee shield. In the end, the Crown Points just hit all the checks where the Pen Fifteen Spemen Shooters didn't.

I made the selection, and that was all I had to do, but now I had a small bar in the top left-hand corner of my view that said one percent done. This is what Miku must have meant by it before, but there was also a timer on it, and it was counting down from thirty-six hours.

Well, I guess that I should have gotten on top of this first, but you can only do so much. I turned to the girl who had calmed down now, and they were both smiling. I motioned my head to the area where the Levi-Stone Lift was to my room.

"I would like you to both come with me and help me with the Mini-Dragon eggs. I have no idea what I am supposed to be doing with them, and I don't want to mess them up," I said as I started walking over to the platform.

"Sure, I know some things about them, but they are very hard to find, so not a lot of people know very much about them," Rixie said as we all stepped onto the gray stone disc.

"Well, whatever you know is more than what I do; I just really like the idea of having little dragons flying around me that won't get bigger and try to eat me! I wonder what color that will be?" I mused as I clicked the Levi-Stone to go down.

"They can change colors and blend into things a bit, but they look beautiful when they are flying in the sun. They are almost like little flying rainbows," Rixie said with a smile.

I couldn't help but get uncontrollably excited, and I couldn't wait to see these little monsters! I didn't get my pet ultra-black Unicorn, but Miniature Dragons were a valid substitution.
