"Hmm… seven overlords, huh?" Shye muttered after hearing the first vital piece of information from the informant.
Apparently, there were seven overlords in the Throgon Death Zone as of a week and a half ago. However, the informant warned him to be vigilant for the potential rise of another overlord, as there were fourteen candidate monsters in the zone.
It wouldn't be surprising if the seven overlords became eight or nine by the time they entered.
After all, once a monstrous creature consumed the core of another within the same range of combat power, it could easily rise to the same level as the so-called seven overlords, who were probably apex (S)-ranked monsters, or possibly even stronger.
