As the days passed, Reign and his team delved deeper into the jungle, their newfound caution guiding their every step. They carefully marked the boundaries of the corrupted area they had encountered earlier and established a network of safe zones where they could regroup and rest. The information they gathered about the jungle's peculiarities and anomalies was shared with other teams in the territory, ensuring that they would also be safe once they became Tier V combatants and started exploring the jungle as well.
During their explorations, they discovered that the corrupted area in the jungle wasn't an isolated phenomenon. Similar corrupted areas dotted the landscape, each with its unique challenges and mysterious malevolent entities. They began to realize that these anomalies were not random but were part of the larger transformation that had taken place in the jungle for some reason.
