Ignoring the fact that a giant bee couldn't exist, it seems like an adventurer can do some pretty amazing stuff from lvl 1 to me. Killing a ram with nothing but your bare hands or bone hora seems impressive in a real life context, but is mundane in a fantasy context, so it complicates things.
Right, it's the fantasy context part that skews things a bit. After all, we have a bunch of wasting-away refugees outside with said giant bees. Of course, they're not very aggressive, so that might not mean very much at all.
Also, we have to remember that the bees themselves are level 1. From that we can deduce, in this case, that they are also probably pretty week, all things considered. So a black belt would probably be able to handle one easily enough, whether we're abstracting black belt status to 1 or 30.
