Chapter 218 - 218 Meeting The Nine-Headed Hydra Again
218 Meeting The Nine-Headed Hydra Again
Su Wan tried to recall where she had heard that voice before. ‘The mythical beast!’
When she had fallen into the body of the mythical beast, she had followed the instructions of the white-haired Lord and ended up in a mysterious place.
The God Core had been hidden there.
It was also at that time that she heard the same voice. At that time, she guessed that the voice belonged to the mythical beast.
Now, that voice came from the small butterfly that fluttered in front of her. But this tiny creature was leagues away from how gigantic the mythical beast had looked.
“Who are you?” asked Su Wan.
Usually, when everyone went to run errands, she could talk to Xu Yuan alone. But now there was another creature that lingered all day around Xu Yuan. Su Wan was annoyed.
“Me?” The little black butterfly didn’t know how to answer that, so it fell silent. After a long pause, it said, “I don’t know who I am… I only remember that the first person I saw after coming back to my senses was him.”
The little black butterfly briefly told Su Wan about some things that had happened inside the body of the mythical beast.
Su Wan was even more confident now that this little butterfly had some connection to the mythical beast, even if it looked too tiny to be the mythical beast itself.
The mythical beast had appeared in the form of numerous blue fluttering butterflies. The tiny black creature in front of Su Wan was also a butterfly.
‘Could it be that the mythical beast has taken another form?’ wondered Su Wan.
The mythical beast had been burned by the holy light. For all intents and purposes, the mythical beast along with any remnants of its body should have disappeared.
However, the voice of the little black butterfly was familiar to Su Wan. Besides, the butterfly had admitted that it saw Xu Yuan when it came out of the mythical beast’s body.
“Xu Yuan, don’t tell me you brought this creature with you,” said Su Wan. She was sure now that this butterfly was the mythical beast, reborn into a new body.
“I did,” said Xu Yuan with a yawn.
“What do you mean you did?!” exclaimed Su Wan. “You really brought that creature home?”
Su Wan had seen the strength of the mythical beast first-hand. The vast arena had been on the back of the mythical beast. It was huge! The mythical beast had a frightening reputation. It had destroyed countless worlds before. Such a powerful existence surely couldn’t be compared to the little butterfly in front of her!
“F*ck it! You kidnapped the mythical beast! How are you sleeping so soundly?” Su Wan was excited now.
If the little butterfly was really the mythical beast, then its strength shouldn’t be underestimated. Even a fraction of its strength would be useful.
Su Wan pulled Xu Yuan, and they headed to explore the underground ruins.
Meanwhile, the Fallen Angel and the others bumped into the nine-headed Hydra. The Hydra and his Lord were being chased by something. They looked ragged.
When the nine-headed Hydra saw the Fallen Angel blocking his path, he became irritated. “Go away!”
The nine-headed Hydra looked carefully. He saw the Fallen Angel, the White Dragon Saint, the Dark Enchanter, and the Red-Eyed Black Dragon. Why were all his opponents from the Inter-Campus Tournament here?
If there were only two opponents, he could fight them. But there were four of them…
‘Why would I fight them? I need to escape!’ thought the nine-headed Hydra. He decided to ignore them.
“Wait!” said the White Dragon Saint. “This is the territory of the Dark-Types. Unauthorized Lords and heroes aren’t welcome here.”
The Hydra was enraged. “What are you even saying?! You don’t own this place.”
The nine-headed Hydra felt as though they were deliberately trying to provoke him.
A dazzling light closed in. “Radiant Envoy?!” The White Dragon Saint was surprised. He had witnessed the Radiant Envoy and his Lord getting killed.
The White Dragon Saint hadn’t expected to see the Radiant Envoy here. After the Lord’s death, a hero had to return to the Hero Plane. How was this possible?
“Look. More heroes are approaching,” said the Fallen Angel.
He was right. Besides the Radiant Envoy, there was also the Light Mage, the Starlight Swordsman, and the Rainbow Pegasus behind the Hydra.
“Damned nine-headed snake, how dare you ruin our plans?!” said the Light Mage. If the Hydra and his Lord hadn’t hastily killed themselves, the competition wouldn’t have been over so fast They could have won! They could have eliminated Su Wan to weaken the Dark Demon Dragon.
At that time, the heroes were in a stalemate. The Light-Types wanted to kill Su Wan. They were even willing to declare Lord Aiur victorious if they could just get rid of the Dark Demon Dragon.
However, Lord Aiur had been suspicious and skeptical. He had assumed the Light-Types were trying to fool him. He had delayed the plan, which gave Su Wan more time. They had suffered a crushing defeat!
They thought it was all Lord Aiur’s fault. The more they thought about it, the angrier it made them feel. They wanted revenge! But if they couldn’t even deal with Su Wan without her hero, how could they take on the nine-headed Hydra?
At present, the nine-headed Hydra was in a sorry state. Lord Aiur and the Hydra were in a dilemma.
From one side, the Fallen Angel and other Dark-Types approached. On the other side, the Light-Types were trying to kill them.
If he joined the Dark-Types, maybe they would help him fight the Light-Types. But if he chose to retreat, the Light-Types would chase him to his territory.
‘We have no choice,’ thought Lord Aiur.
“Please take us in!” said Lord Aiur, turning to the Dark-Types.
“Oh? Take you in? And what do you offer for it?” A magic array appeared under the Dark Enchanter’s feet. She floated in the air and looked down at the Hydra.
The nine-headed Hydra did not say anything, but his Lord let out a sorrowful sigh. “We have nothing left to offer. They destroyed our territory…”
Lord Aiur gritted his teeth. The Light-Types had mercilessly destroyed his territory along with the Territory Core. He only had one life now. If he died here, he won’t be able to resurrect himself or his hero.
