CHAPTER 548: TIER-2, MANTIS CORRUPTED BEAST

9th Zone, B-City, Wilderness:

After going inside the medic building, Jeremy found a dress changing room and quickly wore his battle armour.

When Nico saw Brother Jeremy coming out. His eyes flashed with a surprise. Because he saw the battle armour was new without any scratches.

It can confirm that Brother Jeremy has indeed come for training. Then Nico led his brother to the gate. The Guards are inspecting people who are coming and going out.

Jeremy’s eyes flickered. He could tell that news about the beast invasion was not released yet. That’s why the Beast Taming Teams are going about their business.

He joined the line and stood behind the Beast Tamer.

"Brother, I’m going to wait here. You have my contact address. You can contact me after coming back,"Nico said.

There is a huge building near the administration building. The Beast Tamers usually rest there. He is going to wait for Jeremy Night there.

"Okay," Jeremy replied.

He already spotted a building in the distance. Many of the Beast Tamers are resting there.

When Nico disappeared from sight. He turned towards the line. He is going to use the Beast Taming License given to him in the 10th Zone.

Soon, his turn came. He stopped forward and gave his card to the guard. The Guard glanced at the license. The license was the same design.

After checking he received the license back. Then he placed the license inside the storage ring. Then he entered the wilderness through the gate.

The battle armour he is wearing, comes with the helmet. But he is not wearing one. After walking away from the gate, he started heading towards the periphery area.

Since he knew the under current was surging in the wilderness. He is not stupid to venture deeper into the woods.

While walking, he takes out a new grade-3 Katana with a single edge. He touches the fine blade. He doesn’t know what type of materials were used.

But there are intricate designs printed on the blade surface. It looks beautiful. The scabbard was a mix of green and purple. The blade handle matches the scabbard with purple and green mix color.

He then gripped the katana and continued looking for the corrupted beast. His eyes are wandering around the surroundings.

In this broad day light, very little light touches the ground surface. A large canopy made of a series of monstrous trees covers the top.

He is taking steps slowly. The ground is covered with dry fallen leaves. There is no actual path. He is making it on himself. At the same time, he is making route marks. So that he can get back to the city later.

Buzz!

Suddenly, he heard a sound. He paused his footsteps and perked up his ears. He then started looking around.

Buzz!

A 1 metres tall mantis insect beast flies past him. Jeremy raised his eyebrows in surprise. Because you can only find the insect type beasts in a specific environment. He didn’t expect to see it here.

Buzz!

In a flash, the mantis beast appears before him. Its compound eyes were looking at him. Looking at the human height beast in front of him, he gripped the handle tightly.

He saw through the strength of the beast. It’s a Tier-2 Corrupted Beast. Why is it corrupted? Because the compound eyes are blood red in color. He could feel the madness from those eyes.

Not only that he could feel dark vibes from the beast.

Buzz!

The Mantis beast uses hind wings and charges forward to attack. For Mantis beast, the human is a Tier-2 Beast Tamer. It doesn’t feel like a threat.

Jeremy’s eyesight is sharp. His gaze never left the beast. The speed of Tier-2 Beast appears very slow in his eyes. He had someone who hunted Tier-3 and Tier-4 beasts regularly.

Killing Tier-2 Beast is easy for him. That’s what happened next.

Swoosh!

At the last moment, Jeremy stopped. His body moved but he casually swung the blade using his eyesight.

Slash!

His move accurately pinpointed and went slashing the neck region. The blade swept across the neck severing the head.

Puchak!

A torrent of blood gushes forth. Next, the decapitated head rolled over the ground. The beast dropped to the ground with a heavy thud. The process went smoothly.

His gaze fell on the corpse. He began to observe. The dark aura is released from the corpse. He was not wrong. Fortunately, he ended the mantis beast life in one move.

It may appear to be a casual move. But he knows it was a precise strike. He then collected the beast corpse and headed into the storage ring.

Swoosh!

He then departed from the location. Since he came across the insect beasts. He believes there must be insect beasts nearby.

In order to sell these corpses, he has to be careful in striking the beasts. No one buys mutilated corpses.

Not long after, he spotted Beast Taming Teams. He could see them from this distance. The Beast Tamers appears to be in his age.

But they were all moving as a team. He became interested. He doesn’t know the level of the Beast Tamers here. Especially the Beast Tamers in his group.

He had only met Nico Rossi from the Rossi Family. So he doesn’t know the combat power of the genius beast tamers in the city.

Matteo Rossi Mansion:

Study room,

Matteo seated at his seat going through the reports. When he is done with the last one. The image of Jeremy Night comes to his mind.

"What is he doing?" He asked himself.

Then he called his son Lucas Rossi. Then he learned from his son that Jeremy Night is exploring the city with one of the family children. So he was relaxed and ended the call.

If he knows Jeremy Night entered the wilderness, he won’t be this calm. The family is getting reports that many beast tamers are dying.

Yet the city administration is hesitating to make a decision. They were all waiting for the corrupted beasts to make their move first.

The Beast Taming Families don’t have any choice to follow them. But they have reduced the number of teams entering the wilderness.

Only the Elite Teams from the Rossi Family are making trips to the wilderness.
