STRIKER: Independent Beast Tamer

Dilapidated Building Area:

Daniel Stone and Betsy Lowe heard the deafening noise coming from the area. They realized that the Tier-4 Rat Beast had come.

Both of their expressions were filled with fright. They knew that Jeremy Night was still far away from fighting against the Tier-4 Rat Beast.

Then how was he going to survive?

"No!"

"Brother Jeremy said earlier he was no match for the Tier-4 Beast. I should make a call to the Instructor again," Daniel said to himself.

Then he began to contact him, not knowing they had also reached here.

Betsy Lowe was making the locals vacate the area, even the people who were locked up inside their residences. She was asking everyone to leave.

The city admin staff were confused. But when they learned that the Tier-4 Beast had come out, they frantically started working.

They began aiding people leaving this locality. At the same time, Betsy Lowe requested assistance from people stationed at the city gate.

Compared to other forces, they were the ones located close to this place. The Captain of the City Guard Units must be a Tier-4 Beast Tamer.

So she was hoping for their help. Next, she began to look for people who were near the barricades. When it came to Jeremy Night, she thought he still had some plans for it.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have asked for their help in vacating others.

Meanwhile,

The Rat Beast set its gaze on the prey. Seeing that the prey was alive, it rushed forward to attack.

Swoosh!

In the blink of an eye, it reached the building.

Jeremy used his body strength to try to pull himself from the wall. Just as the Rat Beast was going to bite his neck, he freed himself from the wall and landed on the ground.

Swoosh!

Then he swiftly moved away from the spot to create distance between himself and the beast. This all happened within seconds.

The beast realized that the prey had escaped. It turned around and landed in front of him on the ground.

Jeremy raised his katana sword. He knew that the Rat Beast had fixed its gaze on him. It wouldn't leave the place until it killed him.

Screech!

The Rat Beast made a sound in rage. Its two eyes bulged out and looked creepy. A corrupt aura was leaking from its body.

If it were other Tier-1 Beast Tamers, they would be affected by the corrupt aura itself.

Jeremy was looking at all its deadly parts, including the claws and razor-sharp teeth of the beast.

All of a sudden, his heart calmed down. His thoughts became clearer. He could see the movements of the Rat Beast clearly.

As if his eyesight had become sharper, he could zoom into the details of the Rat Beast's skin. It was the first time Jeremy felt the wonder of the Supreme Combat Body Talent.

He understood one thing about his talent: he could find out his details during combat only, such as this one, where his life hung by a thread.

Screech!

The Rat Beast made a sound before dashing towards him.

Jeremy quietly circulated the starlight energy. He then imbued the starlight energy into the katana blade. In the blink of an eye, the milky white energy covered the blade.

Jeremy looked at the one-sided shape edge of the blade before looking at the incoming beast. The only way he could hurt the Tier-4 Beast was by attacking its weak parts.

His gaze directed at the beast's eyes. The Rat Beast usually had poor eyesight to begin with. They relied on smell to hunt prey.

Swoosh!

When the Rat Beast jumped before him, he used his katana sword to target the beast's eyes. He could see the beast's movements clearly.

Despite the overwhelming aura of the Tier-4 Corrupted Beast, he remained calm. Just as the Tier-4 Beast's claw flashed before him, he used the movement technique.

"Explosive Steps!"

He burst forth with great speed. He moved away just as the beast's claws hit the empty ground.

Pfff!!

Before the beast could react, he thrust the katana blade into its left eye. The starlight-filled blade easily stabbed the left eye, causing shrieks from the beast.

While the blood gushed out like water, Jeremy used the opportunity to hit the right eye. But the beast's long tail swept at him.

Boom!

He used his blade to block the attack. The next second, the powerful impact force sent his body flying back.

Screech!

The Tier-4 Rat Beast continued to shriek.

Smash!

Jeremy smashed into the ground with force. He was already injured because of the previous attack. This time, the impact hurt him even more.

Pfff!

He coughed up blood while the heart-wrenching pain assaulted his body.

"Damn," Jeremy uttered.

He knew if he didn't take care of this beast, it might attack the locals over here. The beast was injured by him, which might cause it to go on a rampage.

AAaarrgghh!

Jeremy tried to get up, but the pain assaulted him. His bones hurt. It wasn't suitable for him to fight under these conditions.

At the same time, the Tier-4 Rat Beast was totally enraged. A weak prey had injured it. It wanted to tear the prey apart. Then it immediately used its sense of smell to locate the prey.

Despite Jeremy having a beast-repellent odor on his body, the Tier-4 Beast found his location because of his splattered blood.

Screech!

It made a loud shriek before charging towards the prey.

On the other hand, Jeremy heard the sound. Because of his senses, he could sense the tremor beneath the ground. He understood something was nearing him at high speed.

"Where is my sword?" Jeremy muttered.

He tilted his head to look for the katana sword. Because of the crash, he had dropped the katana not far away from him.

He tried to roll over to retrieve his sword.

Swoosh!

The Tier-4 Rat Beast was fast. It saw the prey lying on the ground.

Shriek!

It opened its wide mouth to kill the prey.
