Novel Full Chapter 255 - They Are Lusting After My Body!
Chapter 255 They Are Lusting After My Body!
The reason that the Hyena-men had met such a horrible was actually their poor compatibility to the Players.
In turn, there were two factors why their tribe had strutted unchallenged over the Vierlin Plains.
One was their numbers, and the second is in the way their fight: extremely underhanded and ruthless, as if they don’t care if they survived.
Sure, there were many nonhuman tribes such as their neighbors the Graywolfmen who surpassed them in individual power, but winning at the cost of losing their family jewels wasn’t worth if for their race. That was why the other tribes are not bothered with the Hyena-men as long as they don’t challenge the limits of their patience, let alone provoke them deliberately.
Even so, those two advantages are non-existent against the Players.
So I’ve heard you have many Hyena-men? Fine, there are a lot of you—but us Players can come back to life! Kill me and a million would take my place!
Moreover, the Hyena-men’s ruthlessness was an even simpler matter.
That reckless abandonment is a survival instinct that they evolved to win in any competition, but still requires them surviving in the end.
On the other hand, the Players wouldn’t need to stay alive.

Unlike the embarrassing Saber-Toothed Tiger Warrior who was defeated in a one-on-one battle by Zonyan, the Ancient Imperial Wrath Tiger Warrior was the best fighter amongst the three Mountain Tigers who awakened their ancient bloodlines.
While he might not best Roaring Blaze Tiger Warrior in a direct confrontation, all he had to do was buy time and the Roaring Blaze Tiger Warrior would eventually blow himself up, which meant that he wasn’t a threat to the Ancient Imperial Wrath Tiger Warrior.
With his stats maxing out in every aspect and having no vulnerabilities, the Ancient Imperial Wrath Tiger Warrior fought with extraordinary power even against the Players.
One-on-one basically was an instakill, and he didn’t feel any pressure even when he faced up to six Players at once.
In addition, he wasn’t a battle fetishist-once more Players show up and were about to encircle him to take him down, the Ancient Imperial Wrath Tiger Warrior was always able to flee easily before the circle was complete.
But in spite of his awakened bloodline and his strength that far surpassed ordinary Tigermen, he was still alive, and fighting or running ate away his stamina.

And as the Players kept coming wave after wave, he and the Hyena-men needed every second they could get just to pee, let alone sleep. Not losing their minds was proof enough of their strong will.
Be that as it may, the Players’ ruthlessness shot up when they realized that there were no new Hyena-men spawning and that the Ancient Imperial Wrath Tiger Warrior wasn’t regenerating HP. Even if the Hyena-men would cut them into pieces, they would still get a few good cuts in, leaving them with just enough HP to survive.
Having a different principle in battle, the Ancient Imperial Wrath Tiger Warrior became more tired the more he advanced while his wounds only ever increased. While he couldn’t see his own HP, he was formidable enough a warrior to be familiar with his own body, and to distinctly feel that his lifeforce was dwindling as time passed.
It was perfectly logical. The Ancient Imperial Wrath Tiger Warrior was a creature no matter how powerful he was, and unlike trolls or other races who could regenerate, he bleeds when wounded, and recovering required time and sufficient nutrition.
And at the moment, the Players were clearly not allowing time to rest or eat.
In the electronic games back on earth, Bosses would quickly heal themselves to full HP even though they were not attacked briefly. It was an aspect that strengthens the Boss since the designers didn’t want players to relax or wear down the boss easily over time.
But in this world, were the Players’ foes hoping that Xi Wei would stupidly heal the Boss’s HP, just so that there was a little variable added into the Players’ battles?
Xi Wei: Dream on! Die, scumbags who fight my believers, and become offerings to me!

Meanwhile, the Players were getting more excited finally ground the powerful Boss in the Ancient Imperial Wrath Tiger Warrior down to bare minimum HP. The fiery gaze in their eyes were palpable, as if they could see a Legendary item in the future…
Naturally, those fiery gazes did the Ancient Imperial Wrath Tiger Warrior no favors.
If he had to describe it, the Ancient Imperial Wrath Tiger Warrior was like a cute, fresh loli walking in a back alley in the middle of the night, while the Players surrounding him were weird uncles who were drooling and lusting.
The Ancient Imperial Wrath Tiger Warrior himself was sure that it wasn’t a gaze aimed towards a worthy foe.
Instead, they were lusting after his body!
Nonetheless, he was assuredly the strongest amongst the three Tiger Warriors to flee, scar-laden and despite every unhelpful circumstance, back to the Mountain Tigers’ village!
The Players and their little companions (their frogmen familiars) were naturally stunned.
It was fortunate that as the battle dragged on, more Players were coming to the Eastern Continent to help Zonyan and the others, while farming minions for some income.
There were now over a hundred of them gathered at the Long Ears’ village, and they would have a chance even if they were facing the whole Mountain Tiger tribe!
And unsurprisingly, after ensuring that the Ancient Imperial Wrath Tiger Warrior was hiding inside the Mountain Tiger Village, the Player began to infiltrate it to gather detailed information.
Leaving aside how they screwed up towards the end and had to start fighting every Mountain Tiger tribe folk coming at them, the Players were quite successful.
They had found where the Hyena-men were lodging and the location of the Ancient Imperial Wrath Tiger Warrior—and that there wasn’t anyone higher in level than him!
As such, they formed a loose group and infiltrated again through the front gates, but were wiped out before they could reach the Ancient Imperial Wrath Tiger Warrior.
They tried several more times, but they were wiped out even quicker as the Mountain Tigers tribe now prepared themselves.

“They are certainly powerful. Even their normal tribesmen are fighting us as equals!” Zonyan couldn’t help exclaiming in wonder after resurrecting.
“But wasn’t the one who killed you just now named ‘Mountain Tigers’ chief’?” Vulcan couldn’t help retorting. “And I have the feeling that something is wrong with the way we are ‘infiltrating’…”
The Leo completely ignored him.
“Having only second-rate Players like us isn’t enough!” He said firmly and convincingly, having leveled up only through daily quests. “We’ll have to cough up so that the first-rate Players would come help, and only then could we take down the Mountain Tigers’ village!”
