Chapter 471: Core area!
Wilderness (10th Zone):
Cave tunnel,
Jeremy Night started walking back. But half way back into the tunnel. He notices that someone is coming from the other side. His expression changes drastically.
He didn’t expect someone to have entered the cave tunnel other than himself. What more? He is feeling a threatening aura coming from the other side.
He thinks that someone strong is coming. It could be a higher tier beast tamer. If he wanted he could take the risk to wait for them. He doesn’t want to do that.
Because he feels more than one person is coming here. The next second, he turns and rushes towards the edge of the cave tunnel.
Soon, he reached the end of the cave tunnel. He sees the top cover. The next second, he jumped higher and landed on the sunken land.
After walking further high in the land, he looks around the similar giant tall trees.
Swoosh!
He quickly started rushing towards the side of the giant trees. In a flash, he disappeared into the woods.
Not long after, the three middle aged men appeared above the ground. The three of them are Tier-6 Beast Tamers.
The three looked at each other’s faces.
"There is no sign of murderer here," One of them said.
Hearing that the other two started scanning the surroundings. They too found it hard to look at the clues.
"It must be Tier-6 Beast Tamer or above," the second middle aged man said.
"One of us should wait here. Then the remaining two can go back to the organisation," The third middle aged man said.
Hearing that the other two agreed. Since their members have died. They need to report back to the higher ups.
At the same time, they need to secure a place here. If the location was exposed, then no one could save their organisation and them.
Two of them entered the cave tunnel again. They started going back towards the entrance.
Meanwhile,
The third middle aged man stood on higher ground outside.
On the other hand, Jeremy is watching using the eye ability. He didn’t expect three people to appear.
From their appearance, he can tell that they are Tier-5 and above Beast Tamers. If they were Tier-4 Beast Tamers, he wouldn’t have felt that much threatening aura.
He furrowed his eyebrows. He wanted to escape from this place. Because this place is part of the core area. He can’t stay here.
At the same time, he can’t fight against this Tier-5 or Tier-6 Beast Tamer. Jeremy doesn’t know what to say.
Then he notices that the unknown beast egg is still consuming the natural energy from the surroundings.
After giving some thought, he decided to wait here. He then looks around. He is using eye ability to look for the perfect spot to hide.
The trees were so gigantic. He looks so small standing under the tree. He is looking for a mountain rock with cave-like openings.
The cave openings could harbor high tier corrupted beasts. But standing in the open is more threatening.
A powerful high tier or Colassal beast can easily find him. He marked the place and started entering the core area.
It’s a bit of a risk. But he can clearly feel the pure natural energy in the surroundings. The unknown beast egg is using the opportunity.
As the time passes, he is slowly exploring the area. While marking the area as he walks forward. So far he hadn’t come across Colossal Beast.
The 100ft tall mountain was the last seen. It didn’t take long for him to find the small rocky mountain. It’s over the size of 30ft.
But there is a small cave opening for him to get inside. Yet this small opening was not enough for the higher tier and Colassal beasts to enter.
Seeing that he took a deep breath and walked into the cave opening. He saw that the entrance was covered with weeds and overgrown vegetation.
Slash!
The next second, he takes out the blade to clear out the weeds. One by one he removed those green weeds. Then he walks into the cave. He saw the cave was dark.
Only a small amount of daylight is getting into the cave. So far he didn’t feel any sense of crisis. He confidently walks into the place.
Crack!
Something cracks underneath his feet. He was stunned. The next second, he tries to discern what’s going on.
He feels that the thing cracking under his feet was some kind of bone. When the thought occurs to him. He was shocked.
He is hoping that the cave was not a living place for the corrupted beasts. He is using his eye ability to see the details.
After going quite deep, he stopped his footsteps. He doesn’t want to go further deep inside the cave. Because it’s pitch black dark.
He leaned on the wall. Then he sat there on the ground crosslegged. He notices that the unknown beast egg continues to absorb the natural energy from the surroundings.
This cave structure is not far away from the cave tunnel. He can slowly explore the place later. If that Beast Tamer was not there later, then he might try to enter the cave tunnel again.
Now he was quite curious. He doesn’t know which organisation is doing these dangerous actions. He doesn’t think that City Governors are doing this.
It’s already great for them to allow everyone to enter the wilderness. They wouldn’t do something dangerous to attract the Colossal beast.
Even he was frozen on the spot upon seeing the 100ft tall mountain earlier. He hopes that no such corrupted beasts roaming nearby.
He is also thinking about the purpose of these people. What are they ? It’s not an inner area but the core area of the wilderness.
The high tier corrupted Beasts here have intelligence. If they were angered they could attack the city next.
Jeremy started to feel a sense of urgency. He wanted to go back and inform the team leader and the Head of the organisation as soon as possible.
He thinks something suspicious is going on. He doesn’t know which organisation is doing it.
