They increased their pace towards the target.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three disguised men had tattoos on their forearms. It was the tattoo of the Dark Tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They reduced the gap in a few seconds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, Jeremy Night’s heart turned cold. He was sure now. His intuition never went wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, the Beast Taming Association was infiltrated by bad people. Even the Beast Taming Association is not safe,\" Jeremy thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What surprised him was that the people following him were wearing different clothes than the Skull Gang group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had never seen any Beast Tamers wearing black clothes and hoodies. Even the Skull Gang members, who were thugs, never hid their identity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this time, the black-clothed members were different. They could be from a different force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy noticed that the gap between them was reducing. Without saying anything, he removed the starlight single thread from the mental zone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He controlled the single thread and wrapped it around his forefinger. He was waiting for the people to take action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He suddenly turned around and faced the three black-clothed, middle-aged men. They were wearing hoodies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, the gap between them was closed. They were standing face to face. Jeremy saw through their strength. They were all Tier-4 Beast Tamers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who are you guys?\" Jeremy asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the three middle-aged men didn’t answer him. Instead, their eyes filled with killing intent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that, he realized they had come here to kill him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At close quarters, the three of them drew their daggers to attack. The daggers were completely black in color.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy’s eyes turned solemn. His gaze became sharper. The first one leaped at him to stab. He saw the dagger’s movement clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dagger was aimed at his heart region.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy shifted his body. Just as his body moved away from the spot, the stab struck empty space. The other two had yet to attack him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Using the opportunity, Jeremy swiftly retreated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the blink of an eye, he widened the gap between them. He didn’t withdraw his sword. The single thread was still wrapped around his forefinger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t want to kill them yet. He already had enmity with the Skull Gang members. He was sure that the people in front of him were not from the Skull Gang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were wearing the same attire and using similar dagger weapons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two killers came charging towards him the next second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy saw that the daggers were aimed at his vital points, so he twisted his body to avoid the attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two daggers missed his vital points and went past him. If the daggers were to hit his vital points, it would have killed him instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy then moved backwards to widen the gap again. But his gaze never left them. His eyesight was superior to theirs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, he could gather more information from them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next second, the third killer joined the other two. They exchanged glances with each other. They found out that the target was not easy prey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three of them darted towards the target. Their speed was incredibly fast. The daggers whistled past in mid-air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy’s eyes followed the flow of the daggers. He found out that it was not normal stabbing, but a dagger technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were moving in random directions before his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Explosive Steps!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next second, he burst out with great speed. He moved backwards again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three killers were angry. They continued to use their dagger attacks on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As time went by, Jeremy used his body to avoid the dagger attacks. The three killers finally made a decision. They weren’t able to touch the body of the target.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were wasting time as well. The three of them made a decision and used a secret technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They exploded with great speed. Jeremy saw blurring images before his eyes. His heart skipped a beat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time he didn’t avoid the attack. His senses were heightened. His eyesight became sharper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He saw the dagger coming right at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He moved his right hand. He used the white sharp thread to block the target.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The white sharp thread shattered the dagger blade. The killer’s eyes widened in disbelief. He was sure he would kill the target.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, the dagger blade broke all of a sudden. The situation was such that he didn’t see the white thread.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy didn’t stop. He moved his finger again to shatter the other two dagger blades.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few seconds later, the same thing happened. All three of their dagger blades broke into pieces. The other two didn’t pay attention to the white thread either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Using the opportunity, Jeremy wrapped the thread around his forefinger again. This all happened within seconds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy then retreated once again to widen the gap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three killers lost patience. They understood that they had underestimated the target. They started attacking hastily without knowing the full situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three of them exchanged looks. They decided to bring out their lifeline beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, Jeremy Night felt a sense of unease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three wild red rats, two meters in size, appeared on the ground. All three of them were Tier-4 Beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This?\" Jeremy Night was shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked towards the beasts and found it difficult to discern them. He didn’t know whether they were regular beasts or corrupted beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he didn’t like the menacing aura coming from them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three of them gave the command to their beasts. The three rat beasts looked towards the target and started charging towards him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, Jeremy didn’t take the risk. He unsheathed the katana blade and covered the blade’s edge with a single white thread.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The white thread wrapped around his finger disappeared. The sharp edge of the blade was covered in a single thread in a flash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slash!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jeremy slashed at the beasts. The katana blade danced in the air before cutting down the beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>",1013,"2026-06-05T18:52:58.203Z",1,"novelbin.me","61aa5b63661c697f4c010b490a87977c1226712d61c6ba6aa41ec6f96fad1b9c","striker-independent-beast-tamer-chapter-678","striker-independent-beast-tamer-chapter-879",881,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstriker-independent-beast-tamer-cover.jpg"]
