Level-eight monsters were known in this world as "Corpse-Born Dreadbone Nightmare-Class Monsters."
It was said that no one had ever lived to see a level-eight monster, because the instant they saw one, they were already dead.
The reason legends of level-eight monsters had survived was thanks to some relatively powerful Beast Tamers. They had not died immediately, but had instead gone mad, like the Beast Tamer Louis had encountered.
Some mad Beast Tamers left behind clues, and so the Beast Tamers inferred the existence of level-eight monsters from those clues.
In fact, level-six monsters were already exceedingly rare, level-seven monsters appeared only once in a century, and level-eight monsters mostly existed only in legends. The vast majority of Beast Tamers merely knew that monsters of this level existed, nothing more.
Sure enough, when the Steel Giant saw the white flesh beneath the skeletons, he actually abandoned his steel greatsword and turned to run.
However, before he could take two steps, his body began to twist. Dense patches of rust rapidly appeared, and in the end, he crashed to the ground and turned into a pile of scrap metal.
He was dead.
He had died that easily.
Both the trial-takers and the viewers felt a chill. The white flesh beneath those skeletons was far too powerful.
How were they supposed to fight this?
One viewer could not help posting a comment: "Looks like Louis and the others are finished. Aside from the chairman, everyone else is going to die here."
Another viewer complained, "This stage is way too hard. It's practically a guaranteed-death stage."
Just as many people felt that this stage was impossible to clear, someone posted a comment: "Good news! Lord Nameless is here. He's heading toward Dragon-Burial Valley!"
