Western Lake Settlement,
The flying armoured vehicle reaches the settlement area. It's a fortified area surrounded by ordinary brick walls. The defence can't withstand the attacks of many Tier-2 Corrupted Beasts.
"Young Master, we are here," Captain Morris said.
Jeremy stared out through the window. There is a sign of damage on the brick walls. He thinks it's better to see the situation of the settlement first.
"Let's go inside," He said.
Hearing that the Captain drove the armored vehicle to the entrance. When the vehicle arrived in front of the entrance. Some people were monitoring the place and opened the gate quickly.
Some of them immediately saw the raven symbol of the Night Family.
"Support has arrived!"
"It's the Night Family's guards!" They shouted.
Creak!
After entering inside, the vehicle came to a halt in the middle of the settlement. The Raven symbol drew the attention of the people. The settlement is filled with densely populated houses.
So all the young and old were able to come out of their house quickly.
There is little space available for any activities. Then Jeremy and others stepped out of the vehicle. His gaze immediately fell on the people.
Everyone was dressed in ordinary clothes, not so shabby. They can survive here. But they don't have time for leisure activities. There is also a small number of homeless people in this settlement.
There are small orphanages here. Which are sponsored by City C. He doesn't know what will happen to them if they face the Corrupted Beasts attack.
"Morris, ask for the Administrator here?" Jeremy said.
"I'm the Administrator here. My name is Radeo," An old man dressed in an ordinary white shirt and blue pants appears.
"You must be a young master, Jeremy. I have seen your face on the news," Radeo said. The others were recognised as well. Right now, they don't dare to speak.
"Alright, when did the beast attack happen?" Jeremy asked.
"One hour ago," Radeo replied.
Howl!
The black wolf let out a howl. Its eyes reddened in anger. A deep red cut can be seen. The blade went deep inside. But it was not enough to end the Beast's life.
Jeremy's eyes flickered. He knows it would take a few strikes to end its life. So he decides to imbue starlight energy into the Katana blade.
It's going to be the first time for him to use the ability against the Corrupted Beast. He can't wait to see the effect.
Jeremy immediately started channelling the starlight element into the Katana Blade.
The Black Wolf turns around to attack. This time it uses its ability. It disappears from the spot the next second.
Swoosh!
At the same time, the black katana blade glowed with the starlight energy. The Beast appears above his head the next second. When its sharp claws came close to touch him.
Jeremy's body moved. He avoided the claw and directed his katana blade, slashing with speed.
Like a whirlwind, the katana blade filled with starlight energy strikes the neck area. The blade imbued with starlight energy, went deep inside the neck like a knife cutting butter.
Pfff!
Like a fountain, the blood starts to pour. The blade went smoothly before cutting the Giant Head of the Black Wolf.
Thud!
Then decapitated and rolled over to the ground. Jeremy felt the whole process went smoothly. The Starlight energy makes him feel lighter and powerful at the same time.
"Young Master, we need help"
Then a loud voice draws back his attention. Jeremy saw others were still fighting against the beasts. So he went to assist them.
Before using the starlight energy, he had to use many strikes to kill the Tier-2 Beasts. Now, a single strike filled with starlight energy is enough to kill the Beast.
But the Starlight energy is not limitless. Once it's exhausted, he has to wait before the mental zone recovers the starlight energy.
As the fighting goes on, Jeremy can perceive the changes in his fighting. It was not passive anymore. Earlier, he used to attack and exploit the weakness of the Corrupted Beasts.
Now he feels can take away Beasts' life easily. Even if it's a Tier-2 Bloodthirsty Salamander. Jeremy has the confidence to decapitate it right away.
