She had made up her mind to send help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had heard about the changes in the wilderness, but she had thought the Human Alliance must be doing something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hadn’t taken it seriously before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now she was getting afraid. If City C had such terrifying beasts living in the wilderness outside, what about their own city?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had made great efforts to deal with the beast invasion. There was only one high-tier corrupted beast behind that invasion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What if there were more corrupted beasts?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It didn’t take long for Elder Derek to appear. He sat on the chair before her. She then told him about her conversation with City Governor Elton.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tier-5 Worm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tier-6 Lizard?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Derek uttered in surprise. He knew these two beasts could pose a threat to their city as well. What’s more, he was shocked to know that these two beasts were lured out by Jeremy Night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He must have used the special liquid bought from the Beast Taming Association Store,\" Derek added.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dean Carolyn nodded her head. But she was surprised by the result as well. She knew Jeremy Night had only bought 100 bottles from the store.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet it was able to lure out the hidden beasts living nearby.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She said, \"I think the threat to City C is not over. The Tier-6 Horned Lizard has escaped into the unexplored area.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Until they receive a statement from the Human Alliance, I don’t think the City Governors there will take other actions.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So I want you to go there with a team,\" she added.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that, Elder Derek agreed and was ready to leave right away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few minutes later,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Derek walked out of the office. He quickly met with Jacob and told him about the events. Instructor Jacob was equally dumbfounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was the one who had given the idea of the special liquid. He hadn’t expected it to work out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, it has worked better than I had imagined,\" Jacob thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m taking a few people with me. I will keep you posted,\" Derek said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jacob couldn’t leave the campus. He was an instructor there. He had a lot of work to do. So he told Elder Derek that he would take care of things there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because Elder Derek was the Head of the First-Year Department, if he wasn’t there, Jacob would have to do a lot of work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Derek then left the place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next morning,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Derek left with a small team of Beast Tamers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>City C (14th Zone):\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy woke up from his sleep in the morning. Yesterday’s incident flashed in his mind. To be honest, he should be going back to the 10th Zone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the crisis here seemed to be larger than he had thought. It wouldn’t be solved in one day. He had had a conversation with his mother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she refused to come to the 10th Zone at the time. He knew his father’s answer would be the same. He looked at the outside scene through the window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Harris was hiding something. There was a reason for high-tier beasts to live nearby despite the weak natural energy in the surroundings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought the high-tier beasts were being forced. If they were doing it voluntarily, they would have already attacked the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he was curious about the reason. Then he collected his thoughts and got out of bed. He started doing his morning routine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An hour later,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He walked out of the room. He went to the dining area to have breakfast. Jeremy saw his father and mother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He started speaking to them before taking a seat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron Night had a serious expression. The crisis they faced was not solved yet. The higher-ups were dissatisfied with his son’s actions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wouldn’t be able to do anything if the Human Alliance took action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned toward his son and said, \"Son, you are leaving the city shortly. I want you to stay back in the 10th Zone until the crisis is gone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that, Jeremy was stunned. He didn’t expect to hear this from his father.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s impossible. What if a beast invasion occurs? There’s a possibility of that. The beast invasion back at City A was caused by a single Tier-7 Corrupted Beast,\" Jeremy refuted in a serious tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Here, there is a Tier-5 Worm and a Tier-6 Horned Lizard. If they had wanted to attack the city, it would have been another beast invasion,\" he added.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nora’s expression changed as well. She was worried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you had stayed silent, things wouldn’t have come this far. Elder Harris and his team were angry. They were never assigned to fight the Horned Lizard.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If something bad had happened, the consequences would have been severe,\" Ron Night said in a serious tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So you are going back to your organization. There is no second discussion on it.\" After saying that, Ron Night stood up and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ron...\" Nora uttered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She then stood up and went after him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sigh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy sighed. What he had done was clearly a mistake. There was no excuse for it. And things had really gone beyond his control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had hoped to lure out the worm beasts and other hidden threats.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the hidden threat turned out to be a Tier-6 Horned Lizard. He then put these thoughts behind him and started eating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shortly afterward,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His father and mother returned. He told them that he would be leaving shortly. Only then did both of them behave normally and start to talk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>About 20 minutes later,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing breakfast, he returned to his room. He was half-hearted. He didn’t want to leave. But he had no choice. Things were against him right now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he crossed further lines, the identity of a 10th Zone Beast Tamer wouldn’t save him. So he gave in and decided to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He started to get ready and pack his things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, Ron Night and Nora were discussing it in the study hall. Neither of them wanted Jeremy Night to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they didn’t want the attention of the Human Alliance to fall on their son.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Alliance had good and bad people. If someone with bad intentions shifted the blame onto Jeremy, it would ruin his life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So they had no choice but to force their son to leave the city right now.\u003C\u002Fp>",1076,"2026-06-05T18:52:42.484Z",1,"novelbin.me","5419d88b3d3fc4401fde66dd44f89801f1c64e06eeff7ddfb7a77d9b92d2606d","striker-independent-beast-tamer-chapter-392","striker-independent-beast-tamer-chapter-442",881,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstriker-independent-beast-tamer-cover.jpg"]
