Wilderness (10th Zone):
Jeremy Night has escaped from the Sun Wheel Organisation's Beast Tamer. Now he is searching for the Wild Ox.
According to the mission description, the wild ox doesn't live near the core area. It roams around the grass field.
The only grass field available was the near unexplored region. Jeremy decides to go there. The last Wild Ox was spotted there.
He is hoping that he could find the wild ox this time as well. As the time passes, he goes through the forest.
He cuts down the overgrown weeds and clears out the obstacles blocking the path.
He comes to the grass land. He sees that vast plain field stretching across miles. He couldn't even see the end from here.
Even if the corrupted beasts appear here, he can spot them from here. Jeremy then takes a breath and enters the grass field.
He started walking forward. At the same time, he is using the eye ability to observe the far away plot. As the time passes, he continues to walk around.
He knew the area behind the grass field was an unexplored area. He got experience of exploring the unexplored area before in the 14th Zone.
At that time he came across the worm type beasts. But here the situation is different. The entire vast land is empty. Find the newest release on novel~fire~net
His eyes were capturing the pictures of the grass leaves and ground. He is looking for the footprints. Not even the footprints were found.
More than an hour has passed. He is now standing in the middle of the grass. There are not even trees and huge plants around him.
If any Tier-6 and above corrupted beasts pass by here, then he could become an easy target.
Just as he was wondering he heard a mild sound. At first he didn't take it seriously, then he continued to hear this mild sound.
The next second, his expression changes. He stopped using the eye ability. Instead he focused on his hearing ability.
He continues to hear the same sound. Right now, he has found out which direction the sound is coming from.
He turned around and looked at the unexplored region ahead. His eyes flashes with seriousness. He suspects that sound could be coming from ox type beasts.
In order to find out, he can only go to the other end. Then he started walking forward. While walking, he takes out his hand gun and holds it in his right hand.
If there are any sudden changes, he could always use his hand gun.
As the time passes, he is getting closer to the unexplored area.
The sound of ox beasts is getting clear. He is using the eye ability to observe the surroundings. Even if the corrupted beasts appear here, he would know at first glance.
He reached the border of the grass land more than an hour later . Now he can clearly hear the sound of the ox beasts.
After killing one of them, he will collect the mission items. Then he will leave the place. The wilderness here is strange.
He had already encountered one situation earlier where he entered the core area. At that time, it was his luck to escape from the Tier-7 Snake.
He doesn't think he can escape from the same situation again. Before stepping inside the unexplored area. He paused his footsteps and looked ahead.
Hereafter, it's a different place. There is no grass land anymore. He could see wild vegetation has covered the area ahead including towering trees and plants.
It's not even a semi-desert with empty lands here and there. It's a wild nature like a core area. He doesn't know why the wild ox sounds coming from here.
He then puts the hand gun in the case. Then he unsheathed his katana blade. The area ahead is so dangerous that even a plant could attack him.
Then he took a deep breath before stepping inside. Slowly, he started walking into the unexplored area. He is following the wild ox sound again.
As the time passes, the cry of ox sound becomes clear. As if the ox was asking for help, it's crying out of desperation.
He cuts down the vines and plants. Then he goes to that place. Finally, he came to the cave-like structure.
Upon looking at the cave. He is feeling dread. The help cry is coming from here. A sense of crisis envelops his heart.
He doesn't know what's hidden inside the cave. But if he doesn't do something he might be wasting time. There is only one or two hours left before the evening.
He has already wasted time in the grass land. He doesn't want to waste time anymore. Otherwise, he could be spending time here tonight.
Which is more dangerous. He doesn't want that to happen. He then takes a deep breath before going inside the cave.
The sound of ox cry was getting larger. The daylight is decreasing. Finally, he sees what's going on.
There is a 10ft tall dying ox lying on the ground. Its body was bitten by something. The massive chunk of flesh was gone. The backbones were visible.
Jeremy felt nauseous. His gaze fell on other things. There are skeletal remains of the wild ox near the dying one.
A look of realization dawned on me. This cave belongs to predatory corrupted beasts which hunts down the wild oxen for food.
He has unintentionally stumbled upon the place. Before he could think further. The cry sound of the ox beast was gone.
The wild ox dies in front of him. He then collected his thoughts. Though it's a dangerous place. He got a good chance in front of him.
He needed Wild Ox materials for the mission. He doesn't want to go empty handed. He thinks that dead wild ox was Tier-4 Corrupted Beasts. Which matches with the mission description.
He then began to collect the blood of the wild ox beasts. After collecting the blood in the storage bottles. He then began to collect the flesh and bones.
