Reincarnated To Evolve My Bee Empire

Chapter 104 25th chromosome

No, I had to think about my daughters!

How would they fare with those unpredictable mutations? What if they got something unwieldy or even detrimental, like dense bones that made them fly too slow? What if their sisters mocked them for being ugly?

Although, my daughters were all very nice to each other, and any serious bullying was unheard of. But what if?!

"No, we won't have *just* 200 useful bees. *Every* bee will be useful! And more protected," I declared, picking the 'Thick Skin' upgrade.

I had two more points left, and there was another attribute I was curious about. My Advisers were just as curious about it.

"If you are really luckier than usual on the first try, then this should be very worthwhile," Ambrosia commented.

〔For improving perception, you have a choice of next genes: 'Magnetic Field Perception I', 'Olfactory Perception V', and 'Adjacent Pheromone Detection:'.〕

〔Magnetic Field Perception I: gives a weak sense of magnetic fields.〕

〔Olfactory Perception V: improves the sense of smell by 20% compared to the previous tier.〕

〔Adjacent Pheromone Detection: allows finding and deciphering pheromones of other species of bees, wasps, hornets, bumblebees and ants.〕

'Adjacent Pheromone Detection' was a prerequisite for 'Adjacent Language Understanding'. Which would've been an interesting gene if, first, I got it at all, and second, if other insects didn't have an average of 3 intelligence.

'Magnetic Field Perception' was a prerequisite for 'Electric Fields Perception'. The stuff that sharks had… I wasn't sure if it would be any useful out of the water.

As for being able to sense magnetic fields—so far, my daughters could orient themselves well just by the sun alone.

"I'd rather invent a compass than waste attribute points on that," I said. "And before you ask, Re

'Yes, tell me already!'
