Flora Bloom's team recruitment drive lasted for three days.
The number of applicants grew each day. Some, who were already members of other teams in the base, even came in disguise to apply. There were even a few small teams whose captains brought everyone over, requesting to merge their entire group into ours.
Flora Bloom hadn't expected so many people to apply. On the fourth day, a large crowd was still lined up outside the quarantine wall, waiting to fill out application forms.
So, Flora Bloom closed the gate, summoned her swarm to form a wall of bees, and scared off the lingering onlookers.
However, a boy and a girl, both around three or four years old, watched the swarm by the wall with innocent curiosity, completely unafraid. The two children even began to scramble their way up the wall.
