STRIKER: Independent Beast Tamer-Chapter 212: Safe return and information gathering
Forbidden Area:
Boom!
Jeremy again collides with the black beast using his sword. But still, the result was the same. The black crocodile was unharmed. He didn't think it was a good idea to stay here for long.
So he picked up the gadget before fleeing from the place. It was his last option. He dared not take any gamble here.
Especially when he didn't know whether other Black Beasts had stepped out of the lake. It didn't take long for him to return to the entrance.
The Forbidden Area surprised him during his visit. But today's shock was huge. He hadn't come across such an unkillable beast before.
So he didn't feel safe anymore.
Swoosh!
Then he turned around to leave the place. As time passed, he exited the forbidden area and entered the inner part of the wilderness.
Next, he had to be careful not to come across Tier-4 Beasts and above. He had experience fighting against Tier-4 Corrupted Beasts, so he was not afraid of encountering one.
But he was wary of Tier-5 Beasts and above. If any Tier-5 Beast saw him, it would be difficult for him to escape.
So he continued to move forward silently. He made no sound to avoid attracting the beasts roaming at night.
About a few hours later,

Jeremy finally saw the City Gate. A hint of relief flashed in his eyes. During the journey, he had been moving at a slow speed, so it took him more than an hour to arrive.
After reaching the gate, he spoke to the guards. The guards checked his Beast Taming License before allowing him to enter the city.
But their expressions were filled with shock. They were in disbelief. How could a Tier-1 Beast Tamer spend the night alone in the wilderness?
They then assumed the kid must have some background.
Jeremy walked into the street and booked a flying taxi. His condition was dire. His whole body was drenched in sweat, his clothes were torn, and he looked dirty.
He wanted to take a bath first after his return.
Shortly afterward,
The flying taxi arrived. He got inside the car and told the driver his destination. The driver was taken aback.
He realized that the young kid was a Tier-1 Beast Tamer, and this place was the city gate. He could easily guess that the kid had come out of the wilderness.
He was truly shocked and became talkative. Jeremy sighed inwardly but couldn't avoid the enthusiastic driver, so he began to respond.
Soon, the flying taxi reached the University. Jeremy stepped out of the car and paid the fare. He then turned around and started walking back to the university.
While walking, he was already thinking about tomorrow. He had made up his mind to learn more about the Forbidden Area Beasts.
He returned to the dormitory about 10 minutes later. After entering the room, he shut the door and went to take a bath.
He quickly took a bath before stepping out. He then changed into comfortable clothes. The next second, a wave of tiredness washed over him. He had been alert all night, and it was only a couple of minutes before sunrise.
He decided to sleep. He fell onto the bed and quickly fell asleep.
Next morning,
The whole University had woken up. Yet Jeremy Night was still asleep. He finally woke up around 10 am. It was the time when everyone was attending their classes.
But Jeremy didn't feel any urgency at all. He got out of bed and started getting ready.
About an hour later,
He left the dormitory and went to the library. On his way, he came across many familiar faces and nodded to them. When he reached the library, he found the place to be quiet.
He immediately searched for information about corrupted beasts and their types. There were many books and articles on this topic, including some official records of the University.
While others were more like travel notes from Beast Tamers. Jeremy randomly picked a few travel notes and books on the subject before finding a quiet corner to sit at a table.
Earlier, Jeremy's actions had attracted everyone's attention. Seeing that he was studying now, everyone minded their own business.
Time passed,
Jeremy's return was noted by Instructor Jacob and others. Seeing Jeremy at the library, the others did not disturb him.
Meanwhile,
Something else sinister was happening among the senior years, especially the fourth-year students. They felt ashamed that the No. 1 Beast Tamer in the First Year was not from an existing faction but from a newly formed one.
It was humiliating for them. They couldn't wait to teach a lesson to the first-year juniors, but unfortunately, such actions were banned at the University.
Some fourth-year students found third- and second-year students to teach a lesson to them, thinking it would pressure the first-year students next.
Now, the momentum of Jeremy Night was high. The fourth-year students were aware of Jeremy Night's identity. Otherwise, they wouldn't let him have such peaceful days.
Time passed,
Jeremy Night left the library in the evening. He had gained some information about the different types of corrupted beasts.
Yet there was little information about the Forbidden Area beasts. He couldn't even find concrete information among the travel notes.
He even doubted whether the Beast Tamers who left behind travel notes had visited the Forbidden Area. So he thought he would need more time to collect information.
Jeremy then returned to the building. He had already sent messages to Instructor Jacob, Daniel, and Betsy. Since he had tasks at hand, he didn't have free time for long chats with them.
So he walked faster. Soon, he returned to the dormitory. He nodded to his dorm mates before going to his room.
Creak!
The room door opened. Jeremy walked inside and closed the door. He then sat on the sofa to relax. He started surfing online news to learn whether Goldcorp's people corpses had been exposed or not.
He spends an hour confirming that no such news was reported. He could then only put his heart at ease.
