STRIKER: Independent Beast Tamer-Chapter 654: Melinda returned!

5th Zone, City A

Max was quite harsh in his words. He didn't mince them. He wanted the young man to shut his mouth so that he wouldn't blackmail them again.

"Max, you are going too far. He wanted his share. That's all. I'm the one who promised to give him his share after the mission," Leader Norman said in a dissatisfied tone.

Hearing that, Max was taken aback. Then he realized he had spoken without knowing the situation. But he refused to accept his mistake.

He then said, "So, what? We have already used our share. Are you going to pay him with your own money?"

"What?" Jeremy uttered in surprise.

He knew they had cheated him out of his money. His mood was getting worse. He was afraid that a fight could break out.

Leader Norman had black lines on his forehead.

"Jeremy, I'll try to compensate you in the future. We have used the reward money," he said.

Hearing that, Jeremy didn't know what to say. He was speechless. He saw a wide grin on Max's face. If I continue to stay here, then I'll lose my mind, he thought.

So, he glanced at them before walking past. Then he started heading back towards his room.

Max smiled brightly. Leader Norman didn't know what to say. He felt deeply disappointed in his heart. For the sake of team unity, he had to do this.

Unfortunately, he could only feel sorry for Jeremy Night.

"Do you think he will tell Head Harold?" Max asked.

His eyes flashed with a cold glint. Norman sensed the coldness. He was afraid that Max might take action.

"Don't do anything to him."

"He came here through an internal transfer. Head Harold will definitely take action if he finds out the truth," Norman said to him in a serious tone.

Max revealed a smile on his face, but he didn't respond to him. He then turned around and started going back to the building.

Leader Norman frowned. He was afraid that Max could do something behind his back. He decided to watch over Jeremy Night.

Meanwhile,

Jeremy Night returned to his room. He was angry. He sat on the sofa and continued to recall the events. He had been so naive to believe them.

He had hoped to form better connections, but it didn't happen. He thought that they must have looked down on his background.

Especially when he recalled the smile on Max's face.

He had a bad feeling about it. He thought that sooner or later, they would cross paths again. Then he stood up and went to practice.

He knew his current suffering was because of a lack of strength. If he were a Tier-3 Beast Tamer, he would be in the Beast Taming Team.

Now he was alone. He decided to improve the situation. He entered the practice room and turned off the switch.

The natural energy entered the room. He then went to the middle and sat cross-legged on the ground.

Buzz!

He closed his eyes and started running the breathing method. The natural energy entered his body and started circulating through him.

As the natural energy went around his body, the energy cells began to absorb it.

He continued to repeat the process. Not long after, the unknown beast egg inside his mental zone began to vibrate.

The unknown beast egg began to absorb the natural energy in the room. Seeing that, he continued to repeat the process.

That evening, the Beast Taming Teams were returning from the wilderness. One of the teams was none other than Melinda's Team.

She didn't know what was going on with Jeremy Night. Since Head Harold told him to practice, she thought he must be busy right now.

After coming back to the organization, they went together and submitted the mission report. Then everyone parted ways and went back to their rooms.

Meanwhile,

The Skull Gang Organization had surviving members. They were all waiting for orders from the higher-ups.

Because the backer and the force behind the Skull Gang Organization had not been captured yet, they could hide and retaliate later. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

On the other hand, the news about the killings was spreading to other organizations as well, including the Beast Taming Families.

Catherine Rosewood was at her house. She was in her room, following the updates of the Red Moon Chamber.

When she heard the news, she was surprised. She didn't expect the Red Moon Chamber to have such strength. She had been thinking of ways to meet Jeremy Night again.

One of her plans was to join the Red Moon Chamber. But she was a Tier-2 Beast Tamer and a descendant of one of the Beast Taming Families.

It was hard to achieve this goal. But she knew that Beast Tamers from the Beast Taming Families had joined various organizations before.

She thought her father would let her join the organization as well. But she couldn't ask him right now. She wanted to wait until she became a Tier-3 Beast Tamer.

On the other hand, Jessie Boone heard the news as well. He wouldn't forget the name Red Moon Chamber. He was hearing bad news about them, so he was naturally happy.

He found that after that incident, Catherine never tried to meet Jeremy Night again. It made him sigh in relief.

Otherwise, he would have targeted both the young man and the Red Moon Chamber organization.

"Hmph," he snorted.

He thought that the Red Moon Chamber's people might have killed the Skull Gang Members. From the family elders, he knew a few things about illegal organizations.

Their backers were terrifying people. Even their Beast Taming Family had to watch out for them.

His eyes showed rare fear. There was a rumor that illegal organizations were run by people from the Human Alliance.

This matter was not public; it only circled around the top brass. Jessie wanted retaliation from the Skull Gang. He believed they would take action against the Red Moon Chamber.

He doubted whether the kid from the 10th Zone could survive in that organization. If one illegal organization was attacked, the rest of them would come for help.

That was why no one did the crime-fighting missions. With a smile on his face, he returned to his work.
