STRIKER: Independent Beast Tamer

Wilderness(Inner Area):

Jeremy Night was able to go through the forest without getting spotted by another black cloud.

He was making sure he was travelling through the dense area, not the open land.

One good thing, though, was that no other corrupted beasts were sighted because of the beasts' invasion.

He was able to reach the inner area of the wilderness quickly.

The first thing he did was to recall the ant-beast colonies. He didn't know whether it was good to find the ant-beast colonies.

If the ant-beast colonies were present, then they must have been spotted by the City Governors.

Now he has to make some decisions.

Suddenly, he saw smoke in the sky. The place is located far away. It must be rising from somewhere.

Jeremy's eyes gleamed with a twinkle. He thinks something must have happened in that place.

"Maybe the City Governors have taken action?" Jeremy thought.

He then decided to go to that place. There is a risk of encountering Tier-5 and above beasts. But Jeremy Night was not scared.

He knows how to find the ant-beast colonies. He had to take risks. He started walking towards that place.

Jeremy is still going through the dense vegetation area. As he continues to walk, he uses his eyes as well.

Swoosh!

Suddenly, Jeremy sees a flying ant in the far distance. He stopped his footsteps and looked at the flying ant in surprise.

Because the flying ant was small in size. From the beginning of the beast invasion. He had never seen such small-sized flying ants.

It's the first time he has seen such a beast. What is it doing here?

He thinks it must be a Tier-2 Flying ant. He doesn't know why? But he thinks it's good to follow the small-sized flying ants.

Maybe the Tier-2 Flying Ant came out to hunt. He might reach the flying ant beast colony by following this Tier-2 Flying Ant.

A clever plan comes to his mind. Jeremy Night started doing that. He doesn't have to get closer. His eyesight is enough to track the beast.

Time passed,

He eventually got closer to the flying ant. The flying ant also started going somewhere. Jeremy is increasing his pace so as not to lose sight of the beast.

It didn't take long for him to reach the flying ant beast colony. Like he had suspected the Tier-2 Flying Ant disappeared into one of the holes.

Jeremy saw other flying ants around the ant beast's colony. As he continued to observe, he found out that these ants were Tier-4.

It's just one of the many flying ant beast colonies. Still, the Tier-4 Corrupted Beasts are no less of a threat.

Many of the city's population are powerless when it comes to dealing with Tier-4 Corrupted beasts.

Swoosh!

Jeremy unsheathed his katana blade. He held the blade tightly in his right hand and started covering the blade edge with the starlight liquid.

He then came out of the bushes, charging towards the nearest flying ant.

Puchak!

He swung the blade. The blade in his hand went in a parabolic arc before cutting down the flying ant.

The flying ant's body cleaved into two.

Swoosh!

The other 2 Flying Ants darted out towards him. Their movements were slow in Jeremy's eyes. His blade dances in the winds before striking down the two flying ants.

Pfff!

Their broken body parts are splattered on the ground.

After dealing with the three flying ants, he takes out one of the remaining five explosives. He then drops it into one of the holes which is going underground.

He knows that the explosive is going to activate by itself.

Swoosh!

So he immediately left the place and started going in the opposite direction to hide.

The explosive device is falling underground before landing on the space filled with eggs. These are flying ant eggs.

The explosive device senses them as corrupted beasts. Since the number of eggs is hundreds. The sensors treated it as the corrupted beasts.

Boom!

The next second, several beeps were heard. Right after, the explosive device exploded on the spot. The whole of the ant's egg was blasted away.

They were destroyed in seconds. The whole of the underground space was covered with the fires. The grown-up adult flying ants were engulfed in the fires as well.

Boom!

In the blink of an eye, the top of the ceiling was blasted open by the rising flames.

Jeremy, who was running ahead, heard the explosions. He is grinning from ear to ear. Unfortunately, he didn't know the extent of the damage.

But he knows that the explosive won't be triggered unless there is a large number of flying ants living underground.

He has only four explosives left. He needed to find an even bigger ant colony. He believes the next colony won't be further away.

So after running so far. He takes a rest under the giant tree. He didn't spot any black clouds so far. The smoke is still rising to the sky in that place.

His initial idea was to reach that place. Seeing that he is calculating whether to follow the initial goal. But right now, he thinks he has entered the area of a beast colony.

These ant colonies are new. He hadn't seen these before. If they were left out, the flying ants would come out endlessly.

After gaining some clarity, he decides to search in this area.

Meanwhile,

The Three City Governors had found one big ant colony. Right now, they are fighting against the Tier-6 and Tier-7 Flying Ants.

They are in large numbers. The Three Governors knew that the Ant Beast Queen must be a Powerful Tier-8 Corrupted beast.

If they want to reach her, then they have to clear out the hurdles first.

The Golden Green Crocodile tries to swallow the group of flying ants.

Swoosh!

But these flying ants were faster. They clearly maintain a distance from the giant crocodile.

The City Governors' expressions were serious. Because they found out they are dealing with one of the ant-beast queens.
