In a flash, it crossed over the trench and started to attack with its snake fangs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its huge monstrous body appears before Governor Black. He knew confrontation was unavoidable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next second, he brought a huge black shield in front of him. The size of sheil is almost human adult height.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right then, the snake fangs struck the shield. He took a few steps backwards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hiss!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The purple snake beast momentum came to a halt. While hissing it watches the huge shield. Two Purple dents can be seen on the shield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fangs are so powerful that it almost tore through the shield. Not only that, purple venoms ejected from the fangs are corroding the shield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Governor Black was not careful, he would have been poisoned right now. His face looked solemn. He came to investigate but he discovered ugly truth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wants to go back. If he continues to fight here, it will attract other beasts. He had ordered Chloe and Carl to stay back. So he can’t expect any help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While staring at the purple snake. He is retreating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hiss!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The purple snake didn’t leave the trench. It slowly watches human beast tamer go. When the human beast tamer disappeared from its sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The purple snake moved back to the trench.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Governor Black is going back to the city. He had retrieved the corpses before the purple snake appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thinks the corpses were enough to prove Blood Steel Mosquitos involvement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It didn’t take long for him to reach the city. This time he didn’t hide his whereabouts. He directly flew over the city wall and headed straight towards the city administration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The guards at the city gate heaved a sigh of relief. They were worried that a big incident might occur. Now that Governor Black is back. They can be at ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they didn’t know Governor Black had returned because of the Blood Steel Mosquitos. If the guards were to know it would send a cold shiver down their spine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blood mosquito insect beast is a nightmare for local people. It’s hard to deal with it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few minutes later,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Governor Black comes back to the main building. Governor Chloe and Carl are already waiting for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both of them greeted each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Black sat down in the main seat and turned towards others. His grim expression made the other 2 nervous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior, what happened?\" Chloe asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Carl is looking at him with a solemn face as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Governor Black straightened his back. He then looks at them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have discovered the traces of Blood Steel Mosquito,\" Black said in a cold tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Blood Steel Mosquito,\" Chloe uttered in disbelief\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Impossible, there is no movement from the blood cave,\" Carl added.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s unbelievable for them. But they knew Senior Black wouldn’t say it without evidence. That makes them more afraid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know. It’s hard to believe. But it’s true,\" After saying that he started recounting things to them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>10 minutes later,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Governor Chloe and Carl are quiet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tud!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Governor Black then put the dried corpses on the floor. The clear sign of blood sucking was on the corpses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both Chloe and Carl appeared in front of the corpses. They have started inspecting it. They can tell whether the corpses were recent or old.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their lifeline beasts can easily tell the difference.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Governor Black is watching them inspect. But he is already thinking about the next course of action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He decided to ban people from entering the wilderness. He knows this comes with a risk. The hungry beasts can attack the city in search of food.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it would be worse if beast tamers continued to die in the wilderness. Their strength will be reduced. You can’t say that corrupted beasts won’t attack the city then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then they will become easy lambs to slaughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior, I’m convinced. Let’s send the evidence to the Human Alliance and City A. They will send man power right away,\" Chloe said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, senior. Purple Snake is dangerous. But these blood steel mosquitos are even more dangerous. We don’t know how many higher tier beasts appeared this time,\" Carl said in a grim tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They are Tier-8 Beast Tamers themselves. Not only that, they have the support of the Tier-8 Lifeline beasts. But still they are wary of the corrupted beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay, I’m going to take care of that. You guys should release a statement saying that no one should enter the wilderness from next morning.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Those who have entered should come back immediately,\" Black said to them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both the City Governors nodded their heads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Matteo Mansion:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next morning, Jeremy does his usual routine after getting out of the bed. He then practises imaginary training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brother Lucas told him to check out the training facility. He was quite reluctant to use their facility. But he doesn’t have another choice right now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He doesn’t want to cause problems because of their rival family. He made up his mind to visit the training facility here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time goes by,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy is ready to leave an hour later. Right then, he got a message that Nico had come. He smiled and left the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he comes to the living area and sees Butler. He inquired about Elder Matteo. He told him that Elder Matteo was still with the main family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he walked outside and saw Nico Rossi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Jeremy, cousin Lucas asked me to take you to the training facility,\" Nico said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that Jeremy raised his eyebrows in surprise. It saves his time. Then both of them left the place and started walking over to the training facility.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They crossed a few narrow streets and came to another broad road. There are houses on both sides of the street.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The houses belong to the Rossi Family members,\" Nico said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy nodded to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Buzz!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then Rossi’s device buzzes with the modification. He takes out the device to check.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?\" He uttered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Jeremy could ask anything. Nico turned around and said,\"Brother Jeremy, we can’t enter the wilderness anymore. There is an official statement from the city administration.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1035,"2026-06-05T18:52:55.051Z",1,"novelbin.me","5b1433a0c2387bd34e73faaa1f7cff08ee78d60538daa87fe524a750437f4735","striker-independent-beast-tamer-chapter-556","striker-independent-beast-tamer-chapter-554",881,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstriker-independent-beast-tamer-cover.jpg"]
