How to unlock the Hornets' Nest achievement in Dishonored Definitive Edition - Definitive Guide
You [b]WILL have to Bend Time II.
And HIGHLY recommended you upgrade you Crossbow so it can reload faster
On mission 8 (Hound Pits Pub Mission) if you go to Piero's Workshop you will find Him and Solokov you will then need to go and get the blueprints for his Arc Pylon, when he asks you to "Put them all to sleep" or "Burn them all" choose "Put them all to sleep" this will make them unconscious find 4 guards and put them side by side on the ground, (Make sure you don't use a Tallboy, as I think they are protected in the head. When they are next to each other activate Bend Time II and shoot them in the head, it should pop after they are dead.
You can do this on different missions, I just suggest this one since it gives you more time to acquire Bend Time II

I did this with only bend time 1, so that is possible. Good solution.

Got this on mission 4, got 4 guards KO'ed, lined their heads together, bend time 2, headshot all of them, when time got back to normal, the cheevo popped (along with their heads, lol) Plus one from me!!! But I will use this guide for the kill 6 guys cheevo.......
Only reason I had enough runes was because I am doing a no powers run (besides blink), then reloading a save......

Just to add to the above solution
Rather then targeting city guards the following solution involves Weepers who have no armour and lower health. The below method also works with Time Bend 1 but Time Bend 2 is highly recommended. An upgraded crossbow is also recommended.
Load up Lady Boyles Party. from Mission Select. Start the level purchasing Time bend 1 and 2. Cross bridge and turn right past the Tallboy. You will soon come to a building filled with weepers. Make a save inside the building.
Walk into a hallway filled with weepers, walk amongst them so they all rise up and come toward you. Activate Time Stop and Switch to your bow. Aim for their Heads . Shoot them & move on, don't hesitate. You should be able to kill 5 within the allotted time.
Reload the save if it didnt work. Here is a quick 40 second clip of me doing it.

I found what I think is the fastest method using mission select (in case you missed the opportunities mentioned in the other guides and comments.
Select Mission 8: The Loyalists. You will need to have Bend Time II as well as a few each of bullets, crossbow bolts, and sleep darts. I also recommend having as many crossbow upgrades as possible, both to set up the necessary circumstances and to obtain the Achievement itself.
Ignore Cecilia the maid (she's not an enemy so as far as I know won't count as a target). Go up the stairs gr,ab the Abandoned Apartment Key on the hook next to the door on the right, unlock the door, and go through and down to the platform overlooking the street. There is a Tallboy stalking around and some guards chatting. Equip your pistol and blast the Tallboy until he falls. You could also use incendiary bolts or sticky grenades but the pistol is quick and simple. Now equip the sleep darts and start dropping guards. An alarm will go off and they will keep coming. If you run out of sleep darts, kill the rest of the guards until they stop coming. I recommend leaving a few more than four alive and unconscious, since the game has a tendency to disappear fallen foes. I didn't need to, but some players may find it helpful to stop time before taking out the Tallboy and guards. Just have a mana potion on hand in case you need a refill.
Once the scuffle is over, make sure you have four guards knocked out near each other. Make a quick save, use Bend Time, immediately switch to your crossbow bolts, and shoot each guard in the head before time resumes. Happy Achievement!
