Chapter 767 - Blood Hungry Crimson Tiger

[The structure of power in the jungle area of the map has shifted.]

[All hidden monsters will now become active due to the awakening of the overlord.]

All of the players received this notification as the overlord that is awakened is definitely the SS rank monster. They wanted to find it, but they cannot even see it. Even the Finnish national team that awakened it can no longer see the overlord when they returned to the temple.

In reality, the overlord, Blood Hungry Crimson Tiger, is wandering its territory in order to see the challengers that are inside of it. It is trying to find the best opponent out of all the individuals in its jungle. It wants to consume the most powerful individual as they taste much better than plebs that anyone can find.

Blood Hungry Crimson Tiger is a unique type of monster because of its affinity. It is a monster that is half elemental due to a mutation or it was born like that. It can use the earth and fire element at its disposal, but it is more suited in using the earth element.

It is defined as Blood Hungry because of its insatiable appetite for the flesh and blood of others. The first Blood Hungry Crimson Tiger is actually said to have gotten its elemental half by consuming a special flower that collects elemental energy in the jungle.

The flower that it consumed is called the Eternal Blood Flower that feeds on the elemental force of others by drinking the blood of its victims. Some way or another, the first Crimson Tiger managed to either fuse or eat this mystical flower and evolved to become the Blood Hungry Crimson Tiger.

The two S rank monsters in the jungle area have also been awoken by the Jungle Overlord. They should not have awakened unless the population of the monsters is cut in half. The jungle overload awoke them in order to weed out the weaklings in the fold. The jungle overlord only wanted the strong ones for its revival feast.

Each of the national teams sent out their best players to the jungle area in hopes of getting a glimpse of the jungle overlord but they are instead greeted by frenzied monsters. The frenzied monsters of the jungle area are all in the control of the Blood Hungry Crimson Tiger.

Apolaki is also investigating the jungle area, but he could not see the supposed overlord. He is about to hunt in another area when his senses suddenly tingled as he felt like he was being watched. He knew exactly that the one watching him is not an easy opponent but is glad because he or she is not releasing killing intent.

Hou Yiwei also noticed this when he is tailing Apolaki as his enhanced senses could feel something in the air, but he cannot put a location on it. He could feel a strong presence in the area, but he is also unable to ascertain its location. The only one that can actually see or rather see the soul of the Blood Hungry Crimson Tiger is Creepysoo.

He immediately went back to report to his team members that the overlord is a giant tiger. The jungle overlord did not bother stopping Creepysoo when it noticed that it was seen. It just shrugs it off and proceeded to observe those foolish enough to wander on its territory.

"To think that I would be the first one that is revived in this dimension. The others might still have their seals, but my job is to protect the seal of the master. Mortals are really foolish and would jump to a pit of fire just to assert their strength." The Blood Hungry Crimson Tiger told itself as it can see that the other overlords are still sealed.

"Is it really called the Blood Hungry Crimson Tiger?" Ain asked Creepysoo as he wanted to make sure that what his team member said is correct.

"I am sure as that what appeared when I identified the soul. It seems to be able to become some sort of spirit as it is invisible to the naked eye. The odd thing is that it would come close to players, but it will not attack them. It looks like it was just observing them with great curiosity." Creepysoo stated as he found it weird and disturbing.

"It could be a very intelligent monster since it is the SS rank monster that we have seen. Monsters will obtain their intelligence when they grow which is why monsters would often have strategies by level 100. What is the level of the Overlord?" Ain asked as he wanted their team to prepare to hunt it down.

"It is level 300 when I first saw its description. It is definitely something that will need about three to five teams to defeat. Maybe when it is incorporeal, it cannot take action as its body is literally just spirit like one of my skills. Although, it being able to move is more annoying as it is similar to a skill that I know." Creepysoo stated.

"Tell us more." Ain asked as he wanted to know what skill the Blood Hungry Crimson Tiger is using.

"It might be able to turn the wielder into something not of the physical plane. It would probably receive twice the damage when struck by a spell s having such a great skill must come at a cost. Also, it might lose its invisibility if it attacks as I saw it passing through some players." Creepysoo stated as their team is now formulating a plan in order to be the one to monopolize the SS rank boss.

"Each of you get ready. The opponent that we will be fighting is something that needs all of us to tag in. I sensed the overlord's power, but I am unable to see it which means that it has a stealth skill that can bypass by eyes." Totem stated as his eye color is reflected by sunlight.

Totem's eyes are something special as he could use it to peer through deception but the fact that the overlord could avoid his gaze meant that it is powerful. Powerful in the sense that Totem even doubts if their team could defeat it.

"If you are this serious then is it really something we cannot handle unless all of us team up?" Null asked as she wanted to know Totem's judgement.

"It is powerful enough to compare to the Arch Lich when we encountered it." Totem stated as they were also part of the team that raided the Arch Lich back then.

"We were weaker then when we faced the Arch Lich. We should be strong enough to handle the Arch Lich or something of equivalent power now." Shado replied.

"I am a bit sorry that I cannot detect it with my spores as plant monsters are not really the sensitive type of monsters. But I do feel something that is off in this jungle compared to the last time that I went inside of it." Poison Ivy muttered as she could feel the energy of the forest somehow become more ominous.

"What changed?" Totem asked as he also felt something change in the forest because he is a type of druid. Druids are basically often called as Nature's Priests because of their way of handling and caring for nature.

"It somehow became stuffier and heavy compared to last time. Even the trees became silent, and the flowers will not even talk to me as if they are afraid of something.: Poison Ivy stated as she felt the earth beneath her become colder.

"I also feel the same. Whatever that overlord did, I can guarantee that it is not something that will benefit us.

Each of the players are discussing what their next moves inside of the jungle is when something big exploded in the northwest area of the jungle. It is actually a player that is now disappearing into particles of light because it got attacked by a powerful monster.

A monster that looks like a gorilla that is about five meters tall is looking menacingly towards the individuals that dared to invade the jungle. It is the monster called Stone Fist Giant Gorilla and is one of the heaviest hitters when it comes to monsters in the high levels.

It is a gorilla with fists that are covered with a layer of thick and hard stone. It is said to be able to even eb able to make the rock layer on its hands explode when rubbed. It has high damage as testament to the player that died is actually the tank of the Australian national team.

The Stone Fist Giant Gorilla pumped its fists onto its chest which radiated a thumping echo that made everyone that heard the rhythm feel like they are getting blasted by loud music.. The Stone Fist Giant Gorilla is not the only one rampaging as another S rank monster is attacking the players as commanded by the Blood Hungry Crimson Tiger.
