Chapter 41 Killing Grey Spider

Jeremy arrived in front of the ruined residential building. He marked this place last night. Now, it's daytime. He is confident about checking out this place. He takes out the black katana and walks into the building. There was no entrance door. The living area is filled with debris. He started checking the place. After seeing that nothing was hidden here, he walks up to the other rooms to check. Just as he approaches the broken door to open it, a sense of crisis hits him. Boom! In the next second, he leaps backward without thinking. The door was smashed open by silk threads. Jeremy's pupils shrink. An adult human-sized grey spider with dark pupils comes out of the room. It begins spitting spider webs at human prey. "Tier-2 Corrupted Beast: Spider," Jeremy thinks. He then swings the katana to cut down the silky spider webs. Clang! When the katana blade touches the spider thread, he feels hard resistance. It would take a few more swings to cut the thread. If it were average beast tamers, the silk threads would have already pierced them. Jeremy decisively retreats, luring the spider beast to the street. The grey spider didn't expect the human to block the silk threads. It charges forward to attack. While doing that, it steps out of the building and continues charging toward the human prey. Jeremy manages to cover the katana blade with starlight. Cut! The spider silk threads pose no resistance as the starlight energy covering the blade destroys the threads. One by one, Jeremy cuts the spider webs. The grey spider senses the threat and decides to retreat into the safe house. But how could Jeremy let that happen? He has lured it outside to kill the beast, not play with it, so he rushes forward to attack. Slash! The katana blade flicks downward with fast speed. Two of the spider's legs are sliced in half in one move. "I hope he kills more beasts," he mutters. The Department Instructors continue to keep an eye on Jeremy Night as well. Witnessing him hunt down the Tier-2 Grey Spider, everyone comes to the conclusion that Jeremy Night has real skills. Time passes. Inside the underground tunnel, Jeremy finally hears some movement. This time, he covers the katana blade with starlight beforehand. Hiss! A long Dark Ground Snake makes an appearance. Looking at the size of the beast, Jeremy thinks it's a Tier-2 Beast again. Compared to nighttime, the tunnel is illuminated with daylight. He moves freely around here to fight against the beast. Swoosh! He advances forward to attack, gripping the katana handle tightly. He is looking for a precise stabbing. The Dark Ground Snake wide opens its mouth to bite. Jeremy cleverly avoids the frontal confrontation. He moves his body away while thrusting the katana blade forward. Stab! The katana blade stabs at the weak point between the scales. The Snake Beast jolts. It tries to move away, but the starlight energy-filled cut causes further damage. Stab! Jeremy draws the katana blade to stab again. In the blink of an eye, he makes successive stabs to kill the beast. Then he cuts off the snake's head to place it inside the storage ring. The whole fighting process goes smoothly. It's all because Jeremy had prior knowledge of common corrupted beasts and their weaknesses. He feels thankful that he was serious in his school studies. Otherwise, he would have wasted more time to kill the beast. The starlight energy plays an important role as well. He is fortunate to have such a mysterious unknown egg as his lifeline beast. The starlight energy is compatible with his blade style. As long as he breaks through in the future, he thinks the power of starlight energy will increase as well. After pushing down these thoughts, he starts to wait. The foul smell of blood will attract other Corrupted Beasts soon. Not long after, Jeremy's expression changes. His gaze locks onto the deepest part of the tunnel.
