55: Giant Tiger and Red Moon Thunder Dragon Fish
"Monster!"
The Young Man's assistant, wearing a professional hip-hugging skirt, shrieked, her face turning pale with fright, and she collapsed into the Young Man's arms.
The faces of the group of burly men also changed; just a single roar made their ears tremble. This was simply too terrifying.
The next moment, a massive beast slowly approached, its body a mix of yellow, white, and black, and the 'King' character on its forehead carried an air of majesty.
"Is that a Tiger?! How can there be a Tiger here!"
"Weren't all the Tigers in this area gathered in the Dayang Mountain Nature Reserve to prevent poaching!"
The Young Man's face changed drastically.
Because the Tiger in front of him was simply too large; including its tail, he estimated its length to be around six meters!
What kind of concept was that?
Nowadays, Tigers over three meters in length were unheard of, yet this Tiger was more than double the size of an average Tiger!
This length was comparable to an elephant!
In other words, this Tiger had the strength to challenge an elephant for the title of 'King of the Land'!
"Tsk tsk, such a large Tiger, I wonder how it tastes?"
Su Yuan had already slowly floated to the surface of the water, observing the Giant Tiger with great interest.
This Tiger looked huge, but its mutation degree was actually very ordinary compared to aquatic creatures.
Its body length had only increased by a little more than double.
Like Su Yuan himself, his body length had already increased dozens of times, and the Seven-Colored Toothed Fish had also increased dozens of times, as had the Giant Eel, Ugly Fathead, and so on. Their mutation degree far surpassed that of the Giant Tiger.
Even in terms of combat power, if the Giant Tiger didn't have any special abilities, it wouldn't be much; at most, it could defeat that Ugly Fathead.
Of course, all of this was predicated on the Giant Tiger entering the water.
"I wonder what the overall mutation degree of land creatures is like? Is it greater or smaller than that of aquatic creatures?"
Su Yuan muttered to himself, his gaze sweeping the surroundings.
"Ah!"
The Young Man's beautiful assistant shrieked again, then fainted, making the Young Man look on with envy.
"Bro... Brother Niu, what should we do? Should we... should we take it on?"
A burly man asked, trembling.
"Take it on, your mother! Take it on, take it on! All you know is 'take it on'! This Tiger is so big, how do we take it on?!"
The Young Man glared, cursing in a low voice.
But when he looked at his phone, the entire live stream was practically exploding, the popularity soaring like a rocket, with various users flocking in.
"Streamer, just as this brother said, just do it!"
"If you satisfy me, I'll satisfy you!"
A wealthy patron even gave the platform's most expensive gift, Universe Spaceship One!
This was a super gift worth 88,888 yuan!
"Streamer, hurry up, don't be a coward!"
"Streamer, if you don't go now, I'm unfollowing!"
Besides this wealthy patron, other donations also poured in like clouds and rain.
The Young Man immediately felt a surge of adrenaline, tossing his beautiful assistant aside, and said to the burly men, "The wealthy patron has spoken. Today, we're going to put in some effort..."
At this moment, the Giant Tiger had already walked over, passing by the Young Man and his group, completely ignoring them. It seemed to have just eaten its fill, and its previous roar was merely a casual display of its kingly demeanor.
This close proximity, that invisible pressure, made people's hearts tremble, and the words in their mouths seemed to be choked off by an unseen hand.
The group of people didn't dare to breathe loudly, fearing they might attract the Giant Tiger's attention and lose their lives.
This close encounter, the comparison of their sizes, was even more deeply ingrained in their minds, directly dispelling any thoughts of taking on the Giant Tiger.
Are you kidding? The Tiger's shoulders were much higher than theirs, and its enormous head seemed to be looking down on all living things.
How could they take it on?
No amount of money or followers could make them risk their lives!
Against such a giant beast, without modern weapons, any number of people would be useless.
The Giant Tiger walked directly to the water's edge, seemingly thirsty and coming to drink.
Facing such a massive Giant Tiger, even the ferocious Mandarin Fish dared not act presumptuously.
"Eh!"
Su Yuan's gaze fell on a certain spot; he hadn't noticed before, but there was a large fish here too.
This was a fish shaped like a black fish, cylindrical, its body red mixed with grayish-green, with black markings distributed on both sides of its body, and also densely covered with white spots, shining like stars.
"This is a Red Moon Thunder Dragon Fish!"
Su Yuan exclaimed in surprise.
The scientific name of this fish is Moon Eel/Snakehead, belonging to the same Channidae family and Channa genus as the black fish, which is to say, a member of the so-called Thunder Dragon Fish.
Normal Red Moon Thunder Dragon Fish, similar to the Seven-Colored Toothed Fish, are very small, usually not exceeding thirty centimeters.
But the Red Moon Thunder Dragon Fish in front of him was similar to the Seven-Colored Toothed Fish Su Yuan had eaten earlier, estimated to be around six meters long.
It was like a prehistoric giant beast, eyeing the Giant Tiger that had come to drink water.
The Giant Tiger had clearly been here to drink water before and knew what was lurking there. It didn't drink directly but instead scanned the water's surface.
The Young Man turned around, live-streaming the Giant Tiger. He had been thoroughly frightened by that earlier incident, and no matter how the wealthy patrons threatened or coaxed him, he dared not take on the Giant Tiger.
"Brother Niu, why do you think this Tiger walked to the water's edge but didn't drink, instead looking around? Could there be a female Tiger in the water?"
One of the burly men whispered.
"Are you looking for death?! Don't talk!"
The Young Man glared at him. He actually had some suspicions, especially with the experiences of the past few days, which gave him some ideas.
"Splash!"
Suddenly, the water surface exploded, and waves surged into the sky, drenching the Young Man and his group.
It turned out that the Red Moon Thunder Dragon Fish had quietly lurked over and launched a sudden attack.
Its mouth was very wide and full of sharp teeth, each tooth like a steel knife, and also covered with barbs.
As a feline, the Giant Tiger, as is well known, is faster than a fish, so it easily dodged the attack.
The Giant Tiger leaped back, landing beside the Young Man and his group, letting out a low growl like muffled thunder.
"Holy crap! Holy crap! What kind of monster is that! That mouth, it could drag down even a cow!"
The burly men's faces turned pale with fright, some of them weak-kneed. Their position was only a few meters from the water's surface.
The Young Man also looked terrified at this moment, if this Giant Tiger hadn't come, he would have been the first person to approach the deep pool.
The consequences... "Streamer, get closer! Can't see what kind of fish it is!"
The live stream was even more lively, with everyone telling the Streamer to get closer to film, as it wasn't clear from afar.
The Young Man pretended not to see it. Are you kidding? If a Tiger that big dared to attack, wouldn't he be offering himself up if he went closer?!
After its ambush failed, the Red Moon Thunder Dragon Fish did not retreat into the deep pool. Instead, it exposed its huge head, its fins pressed against the ground in the shallow water, supporting its body, its gaze fixed on the Giant Tiger, with a subtle tendency to charge over.
This chilling gaze made the Young Man and his group shudder.
The Giant Tiger's fur had already bristled, its eyes equally cold, its body low to the ground, its mouth bared, and then it suddenly opened its mouth, spitting out streams of blade-like hurricanes.
It was a terrifying sight, six hurricane blades killing towards the Red Moon Thunder Dragon Fish.
A hint of astonishment flashed in the Red Moon Thunder Dragon Fish's eyes; it seemed surprised that the Giant Tiger had this trick, but it was not flustered.
The dense, star-like white spots on both sides of its body began to glow, like stars in the night sky.
Streams of tiny white light shot out, directly hitting the hurricane blades spat out by the Giant Tiger.
At the same moment, the Red Moon Thunder Dragon Fish's body shot forward like a cannonball, lunging at the Giant Tiger.
"Roar!"
The Giant Tiger roared, no longer retreating on land, and also pounced forward, meeting the attack.
