Because the process of forming a contract did not require physical contact, theoretically, as long as the bee queen remained quiet, it could be tamed without capture.
Qin Niu continued to closely observe the queen platform surrounded by the male bees.
He had two potential plans for subjugation in mind.
The most foolish method was to capture the new queen bee and then take her home to be tamed.
That approach, even after subduing the queen bee, would pose many problems.
The clever and time-saving method required seizing the fleeting opportunity when she climbed out of the queen platform to subdue her.
Bees and ants, as sociable creatures, die quickly when separated from their colony.
A lone new queen bee simply couldn't survive in the fiercely competitive natural world.
Therefore, subduing the new queen bee without destroying the hive was the best choice.
If it were about subduing hornets or bear bees, the situation would be different.
