Chapter 143: Against The Crimzon Berserk Ape
?
As the dust finally settled, the figure of the massive Ape emerged from the haze. It stood nearly thirty feet tall, its red fur glowed with a fiery glow. The ape's massive front muscles were strikingly different from the rest of its body-they appeared to be made of condensed black metal, giving it a terrifyingly solid and powerful appearance.
A deep crimzon talent window suddenly materialized.
Monster: Crimson Berserk Ape
Rank: S
Class: Giant.
Total Combat Power: 68,600.
System remark: A Giant class monster with both lightling fast reflexes and explosive strength.
Alister's eyes widened as he read the talent window. The total combat power of the beast was shocking, rivaling even his dragons.
'Sixty eight thousand?! Even Darven only has a combat power of Fifty five thousand.'
'Is that the difference between an A+ and S rank?'
Alister quickly composed his thoughts and issued his command. "Cinder, incinerate it."
"Understood."
With a mighty roar, Cinder opened her massive maw and unleashed a torrent of flames. The flames surged forward, roaring like a wildfire as they engulfed the Crimson Berserk Ape.
Alister could feel the intensity head despite standing some feet away atop Darven's head. As the flames churned around the beast, for a few moments, the scene was consumed by roaring fire.
The ground beneath the ape was scorched black, the flames creating a blinding wall of heat. But as the fire finally subsided, Alister's eyes widened in shock.
The Crimson Berserk Ape stood unharmed, its massive body covered in smoke but completely intact.
A small System window materialized, [Attack Highly Ineffective.]
"That's impossible," Alister said, his voice edged with shock. He quickly assessed the situation.
"Darven, Cinder, attack together!"
Darven roared, his body crackling with lightning. He charged alongside Cinder, who prepared to unleash another torrent of flames. Darven's lightning crackled and leaped from his maw, streaking through the air with blinding speed, while Cinder's flames swirled around it.
Darven's lightning hit the Crimson Berserk Ape first, surging over its metallic muscle, going down and rippling into the earth.
The flames landed as well, covering it completely again. They continued their attacks for a while, the brightness and intensity causing Alister to shield his eyes and crouch slightly.
Finally they stopped, as the intensity subsided Alister slowly opened his eyes, and was shocked with what he saw.
The ape flinched slightly, but it's metallic skin absorbed the lightning, the residuals crackled round its body but it was ultimately ineffective.
Despite Cinder and Darven's combined attack, the Crimson Berserk Ape remained standing, its crimson eyes glowing brightly. The smoke and steam emanated from the monster's body but it was still not hurt.
Alister couldn't hold back his curiosity, 'System, open the monster's status window.'
Alister's eyes were drawn to the system window as it materialized:

Remark: A Giant class monster with both lightning-fast reflexes and explosive strength. Extremely resistant to mana-based attacks.]
"This monster has extreme mana resistance," Alister said aloud, "It seems regular breath attacks aren't going to work on it."
Darven, still crackling with electricity, glanced at the ape with a touch of respect. "A worthy opponent," he rumbled, his voice filled with admiration for the challenge.
Cinder, her flames flickering, nodded in agreement. "Indeed."
Alister, now understanding the gravity of their challenge, began to formulate a new strategy. While lost in thought, the Crimson Berserk Ape suddenly unleashed a deafening roar.
The sound echoed across the entire valley, reverberating through the air and causing a shiver of unease to pass through everyone nearby.
Ren, fighting on the other side of the valley, paused momentarily. His eyes darted around, trying to locate the source of the terrifying sound.
"What was that?!" Hiroshi shouted over the chaos, his voice strained from the battle.
"That roar—it's unlike anything I've ever heard," Kaida said, her gaze fixed on the distant horizon. "It definitely wasn't from Alister's dragons."
Goro, still battling a group of Scorchclaws, grunted. "We need to stay focused... We can't ignore that. It felt... overwhelming."
Ren adjusted his glasses, his expression serious as he said oke to him. "It's now you will be truly put to the test," he muttered under his breath. "I hope you won't let Master Yuuto
down."
Meanwhile, Marcus and Elena, observing the live feed, exchanged worried glances.
...
"What was that noise? It came from Alister's direction," Marcus said, his brow furrowed. "We need to switch to a nearby drone and get a closer look."
Elena nodded, her eyes narrowing as she directed the feed to a nearby drone positioned in the area. The screen flickered as the feed switched, revealing Alister and his dragons locked in a
fierce struggle against the Crimson Berserk Ape.
"Oh no," Elena exclaimed. "That's the Crimson Berserk Ape! It's enormous!"
Marcus's eyes widened in surprise. He noticed that Alister's dragons were not attacking, their focus seemed directed elsewhere. "It seems Alister's dragons are not currently attacking. What's going on? Why the sudden pause?"
Turning to his dragons, Alister called out, "Cinder, Darven, prepare for a coordinated strike. We need to hit it where it's vulnera-"
Before Alister could implement his plan, the Crimson Berserk Ape suddenly charged forward with an explosive burst of speed.
Its massive limbs pounded the ground, sending tremors through the valley and sending up clouds of dust and debris.
The beast's eyes burned with a red glow as it charged straight toward Alister and his dragons.
Alister's eyes widened in shock as the colossal ape approached. He was momentarily stunned by the unexpected advance, unable to give an immediate command.
The sudden rush of the beast created a chaotic atmosphere, making it hard to think clearly.
Elena and Marcus, observing the scene, were shocked. Elena's brow furrowed with concern. "Why aren't Alister's dragons moving? This doesn't look like a usual tactic. Are they
hesitating?"
