"If you see a group of boars in this area, don't approach them casually," he warned. "Once a boar passes level 10 and commands a large herd, its name changes and its strength increases dramatically. It also becomes capable of giving very good orders to the boars under its control too."
"The Ironclad Boar Patriarch, right?" Theo said, making Lucien nod.
He had already read about it in the book, and Clara knew about it from her adventuring days.
Theo glanced back one more time and saw all the apes lined up on trees, staring in their direction with unknown expressions.
