STRIKER: Independent Beast Tamer

Wilderness (10th Zone):

Team Leader Gisela brought Jeremy to the inner area. After following the routes shown by him. They have reached the spot.

Gisela's eyes were filled with disbelief. She had thought it's some kind of naturally formed Field Area. To her surprise, this was not the Field Area.

The area is the border area and it's next to the core area. Looking at the cave tunnel. She understood that someone had dug it towards the core area.

Her expression was serious. She understood that someone with schemes is acting behind the scenes. It could put their entire City A in danger.

The last thing everyone wanted was someone to anger the Colossal Beasts living in the core area.

"I'm afraid City A is not a suitable place to live for the long term," she thought.

But she is not saying it openly. She then looked at Jeremy and said,"Let's go back."

Jeremy nodded to her. He thinks she has understood the truth right now.

On their way back, they didn't encounter any trouble. In fact, the unknown organisation immediately erased their traces.

Since their first group has died. They had been sent back up. One of the Tier-6 Beast Tamer stayed behind. Two of them returned.

Yet the Tier-5 Beast Tamers guarding the cave entrance were killed. They were yet to retrieve the corpses. Only from the corpses, they can discern the killer's identity.

About 20 minutes later,

Gilsela returned with Jeremy Night. She recalled the missions given to the squads. She immediately called them and cancelled their missions.

All the Squad Captains are surprised. She didn't want them to enter the wilderness at this time. They were confused. For them the wilderness is absolutely safe right now.

But only Gisela and Jeremy know that human danger is there. People who could do such things were clearly not afraid of the City Governors' wrath.

Jeremy parted ways after entering the building. He goes towards his room. He found his own shortcomings. If not for his hand gun skills, he would have been troubled against the group attacks.

If it were other Tier-2 Beast Tamers, they would have become a snack for the Tier-5 Red Centipede. After entering the room, he locked the door and entered the training room for the practice.

Meanwhile,

Gisela went to meet the Head of the organisation. He was in his office room. She meets him in the office and briefs him about the cave tunnel.

Head Neil Moon was calm and composed at first. But when he heard someone had dug a tunnel to the core area. He lost his cool.

"Who dares to do it?" He said with anger.

It's already a miracle for them to escape from the anger of the Colossal Beast. Now someone is doing these dangerous things.

"If we anger the Colossal Beast again, I don't think the Lords from the Human Alliance would look at us," Neil said in a solemn tone.

"If what you are saying is true then it's not good to enter the wilderness before solving this problem," he added.

Gisela nodded her head.

He then calls the elders and team leaders. In a few minutes, everyone assembled in the room. Upon seeing they were all surprised.

"Gisela has found out that someone dug a cave tunnel to the core area. It happened recently,"he said.

Gasp!

A small exclamation occurs. Their city won't withstand the attacks from the Colossal Beast.

"It's true. So I want everyone to cancel the missions given to the members and call back everyone immediately," He said to them.

The Team Leaders are in shock. They looked towards Gisela in disbelief. They wonder how she was able to find out this threat.

Gisela noticed everyone's gazes. She sighed inwardly. It was discovered by Jeremy Night. But she understood that Head doesn't want any attention on Jeremy Night.

Not long ago, Jeremy Night survived assassination from the professional killer. It's understandable that Head doesn't want such mishap to happen again.

A few minutes later,

The meeting ended. Everyone exited the office room. Head Neil Moon immediately informs City Governor Marcos who didn't believe it first.

But he can't ignore the smallest of possible. So he, Head Neil Moon and Gisela went to the wilderness again.

It didn't take long for them to reach the spot. This time the combat power of everyone was strong. They are Tier-8 Beast Tamers and Gisela is Tier-7 Beast Tamer.

With the help of their lifeline beasts they can survive the entrance of the core. They saw the corpses on the ground as well.

They are wearing basic Mercenary uniforms. It's difficult to judge their identity from their clothes. Right now, their urgent task is to explore the cave tunnel.

Three of them have started walking inside the tunnel. Soon, they reached the tunnel and found the opening to the core area.

Gisela was surprised. The natural energy was indeed . In fact she had experience of exploring the inner area.

But she never went deeper to explore. Because she knows that Colossal Beasts live there. Beyond the core area was the unexplored area which was more dangerous.

Marcos is getting angry. Because she has confirmed the truth. Someone or some organisation is messing with their territory.

"Who could be?" Jeremy thought.

Neil Moon sighed. He could see doubts appearing on City Governor Marcos' face.

He said,"Individuals or organizations belonging to the other 9 top zones could be responsible. No one has the guts to go against the Human Alliance."

"If someone still did this then they have someone to rely on to face the Human Alliance," He added.

"You are right. We had already received help from the 2 Lords. Yet someone doesn't want us to live peacefully," Marcos said.

Then they open the top ceiling before jumping up high. The next second, they landed on the sunken land. The pure rich natural energy enters their body.

The environment here is better than here. The natural energy is pure and rich. Three of them have started observing the place.

Three of them can feel the presence of the powerful corrupted beasts here. More importantly, Marcos and Neil Moon can feel the presence of the Colossal Beasts.
