The tall old man said, \"Why isn’t it coming out?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Does it want a fight?\" he added.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He... He... He...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s better we attack them first,\" the slightly obese old man said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hiss!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that, the Tier-8 Purple Snake hissed out. It was ready to release purple venom toward the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, the faces of the old men changed. They also noticed that the Vine Beast’s other half extended deeper into the forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait,\" the tall old man said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing that, the obese old man went quiet. He had underestimated the beasts. They were ready to attack the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The obese old man had forgotten about the city. For a moment, he thought they were in an unexplored area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Knowing there was a city behind them, the beasts had held the upper hand from the beginning. If they had wanted to attack, they would have done so earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The obese old man realized the seriousness of the matter. The tall old man remained quiet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then said, \"I know both of you can understand human words. I wanted the Blood Steel Mosquito to be present here as well.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Only then can we discuss. Otherwise, I will have to ask for help. And trust me, you don’t want to see that many Beast Tamers.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They won’t like going back empty-handed,\" he added.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rustle!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sky-high vine moved in mid-air. It realized that the human Beast Tamer was threatening it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Purple Snake, he is threatening us. Should we fight?\" the Vine Beast asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though it was afraid of the Tier-9 human Beast Tamer, it still held the amusing thought that it could fight against him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hiss!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait, if we attack, reinforcements might come. Let’s bring that old mosquito here,\" the Tier-8 Purple Snake said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It knew the strength of the Tier-9 human Beast Tamer. It would be difficult for both of them to confront the duo, especially with the Tier-9 Lifeline Beasts behind them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both beasts made a decision. They looked at the human Beast Tamers and retreated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next, both the Vine Beast and the Purple Snake started heading toward the Blood Cave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that, the two old men understood what was going on. The obese old man heaved a sigh of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thanks for reminding me,\" he said to the friend standing beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tall old man said, \"It’s not a wild, unexplored area. We have to think about the city as well.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying that, he brought his Lifeline Beast outside. It was a Tier-9 Lifeline Beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An enormous, gigantic brown eagle appeared in the sky, its wingspan stretching over 5 meters. Its deadly sharp claws were longer than one meter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kee-kee!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The giant brown eagle made a sound before circling in the air. The tall old man ordered the Lifeline Beast to circle above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The giant eagle flapped its wings. The next second, a massive wind force was generated. It immediately blew away the nearby vegetation and plants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the blink of an eye, the surrounding few hundred meters became empty. Not a single blade of grass could be seen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that, the old man with the obese body summoned his Lifeline Beast outside as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A massive dark green turtle with metal spikes on its back landed. It was a Tier-9 Dark Green Turtle. The size of the turtle was massive, spanning over 6 meters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As it landed, it created a deep pit in the ground. At the same time, shockwaves spread across the area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The already empty ground was once again swept by wind force. Dust and smoke rose above the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The appearance of the two magnificent beasts alerted the whole forest. The lower-tier beasts and other beasts below Tier-6 fled from the place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood Cave\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Tier-8 Blood Steel Mosquito had been waiting. However, it didn’t expect the Purple Snake and Vine Beast to come toward the Blood Cave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not long after, it saw the appearance of two massive Tier-9 Lifeline Beasts. An aura of suppression spread across the place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hint of fear flashed in the compound eyes of the Blood Steel Mosquito. It decided to come out. Otherwise, it would be targeted alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next second, the Blood Steel Mosquito darted out from the passage. Its speed was so fast that it created an air-tearing sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a flash, the Blood Steel Mosquito appeared outside. It moved upward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its massive body appeared in the sky. The Blood Steel Mosquito saw the Tier-8 Vine Beast and Tier-8 Purple Snake at a distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you two doing here?\" the Blood Steel Mosquito asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Vine Beast and the Purple Snake appeared before it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hiss!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You were late. The two Beast Tamers intended to attack us,\" the Tier-8 Purple Snake said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If we don’t negotiate, they will bring backup,\" the Vine Beast said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two massive bodies faced the Dark Blood Mosquito in the sky. The Blood Steel Mosquito understood the seriousness of the matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it didn’t cooperate, they would face the wrath of the human Beast Tamers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay. Let’s go. We will face the human Beast Tamers together,\" the Blood Steel Mosquito said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three corrupted beasts then left the place together. They looked at the two Tier-9 Lifeline Beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These two Tier-9 Lifeline Beasts were enough to kill all three of them. It was just the existence of the city with the human population that restrained them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three corrupted beasts moved toward the human Beast Tamers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shortly afterwards, the two old men saw that the Blood Steel Mosquito was obediently coming toward them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>....\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, a few minutes ago:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>City Governors Black, Chloe, and Morgan were standing in mid-air outside the city gate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>City Governors Lucian and Serena were there as well. They saw the changes in the wilderness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All five City Governors spotted two old men standing in mid-air. They didn’t know their identities yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before they could think further, they saw the Tier-8 Vine Beast and Tier-8 Purple Snake appearing before the two old men.\u003C\u002Fp>",1017,"2026-06-05T18:52:55.051Z",1,"novelbin.me","84f7d0fbdee3b18ec25a2055db1971e79a35b9edf6cc42ccced411d4850a55f3","striker-independent-beast-tamer-chapter-587","striker-independent-beast-tamer-chapter-585",881,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstriker-independent-beast-tamer-cover.jpg"]
