The search for exotic spin configurations and related novel transport properties continues to be fueled by the promise of new electronic states and outstanding candidate components for spintronic applications. In layered Cr7−δTe8, the applied field drives a before unreported magnetic transition revealed by the alternating current magnetic susceptibility measurements around room temperature. This observed magnetic transition results in a sign change for the anomalous Hall effect which exhibits non-monotonous temperature dependence. The prominent topological Hall effect (THE) with a large value of 1μΩ⋅cm has been observed without breaking the inversion symmetry for Cr7−δTe8. This robust THE can persist up to room temperature attributed to the nonzero fluctuation-driven scalar spin chirality. The complicated interactions of long-range and short-range magnetic orders lead to rich exotic magnetic states with related novel transport properties in Cr7−δTe8.
