Both Petra’s and Levy’s fathers were City Governors as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Petra and Levy made their calls on the spot. When their families learned that Jeremy Night had returned, they were shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing that the three childhood friends wanted to spend time in the wilderness, their families agreed, knowing that a guardian team would accompany them.

We should spend some time in the wilderness,\" Jeremy said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Petra and Levy stood up from the sofa. Jeremy exited the house with them. Outside, Jeremy informed the Head Guard of his decision, while the others listened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon learning that Young Master Jeremy wanted to explore the wilderness, the Head Guard responded, \"Young Master, we can leave right away.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Petra and Levy also informed their respective teams. Each had come with their own guard team.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few minutes later, six flying cars departed from the Night Mansion. Jeremy traveled in one car, with the Head Guard and his team in a second car behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Similarly, Petra and Levy each traveled in their own cars, accompanied by their guard teams, making a total of six vehicles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The convoy reached the main part of the city and headed toward the city wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy felt a sense of freedom. Finally, he would have a break from the hectic life of City A in the 10th Zone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The six flying cars continued their journey and soon reached the city wall. The City Guards did not attempt to stop them, having received prior approval from the City Administration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first two cars bore the raven symbol of the Night Family, which the City Guards recognized, allowing them to pass.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Similarly, they identified the symbols of the Ross and Glass Families on the remaining four cars and permitted them to fly past the city wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The six flying cars then entered the wilderness and disappeared from the patrol guards’ sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few minutes later, the convoy reached the outer area of the wilderness. The flying cars landed one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy and his friends stepped out of their cars, followed by the family guards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy looked around. It had been a long time since he last visited this place. He used to train here in the wilderness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Petra and Levy observed the area with interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I used to come here with my father,\" Petra said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Levy added, \"Same for me. I even hunted low-tier corrupted beasts here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, what’s your plan?\" Petra asked, turning to Jeremy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Levy looked at Jeremy as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m thinking you plan to hunt corrupted beasts here,\" Levy said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy smiled and replied, \"I do plan to kill some corrupted beasts, but first, I want to find an unexplored area here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"An unexplored area?\" Levy said, surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Petra was equally stunned. She hadn’t expected Jeremy to have such an idea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They knew the wilderness contained unexplored regions, rumored to be home to powerful corrupted beasts due to the rich natural energy in those areas.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s just explore the place randomly. We’ll return before evening,\" Jeremy said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Petra and Levy agreed. They were going to spend time in the wilderness, not necessarily focusing on killing corrupted beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Head Guards of the three teams left a few members behind to protect the flying cars and monitor the area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The rest of the team followed Jeremy Night, Petra, and Levy. As they walked, the three friends chatted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy asked about Central University 14 these days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Almost everyone knows you left Central University 14,\" Petra Ross said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Levy added, \"Some Beast Taming Families knew where you went, but no one made it public. We only learned about it from our families.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy’s eyes flickered with understanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then thought of the STRIKER Department and sighed inwardly. So much had changed. If not for the genius list, he would have stayed at Central University 14.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He asked, \"What about my members?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you talking about Betsy Lowe and Daniel Stone?\" Petra asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Petra said, \"They seem to be doing fine. But you should visit Central University 14 to see them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The situation is better than before. Because of your absence, no one bothers them,\" Levy said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Attack Department and the Elemental Department have reclaimed the title of the strongest departments,\" he continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"May Lindsey and Victor Scott are working hard. Ever since you left, they’ve reduced their activities on campus.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There’s even news that they’re spending time in the wilderness for training. It seems they’re copying your style, but others don’t have that courage,\" he added.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy listened quietly, relieved that no one was causing trouble for Betsy Lowe and Daniel Stone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll go to Central University 14 with you guys,\" Jeremy said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Petra and Levy weren’t surprised. They knew he would visit sooner or later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Jeremy had been the department representative before leaving Central University 14. How could he not return?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As time passed, they changed the topic and began discussing something else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guards continued to follow behind them. They are keeping an eye on the surroundings as well.\u003C\u002Fp>",1011,"2026-06-05T18:52:42.484Z",1,"novelbin.me","e293b78448c493234c722e54afd3a67a89df46793096bdc8abf18c8447e3f640","striker-independent-beast-tamer-chapter-379","striker-independent-beast-tamer-chapter-378",881,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstriker-independent-beast-tamer-cover.jpg"]
