Valhalla Saga

Chapter 56 - Starting Points

Hercules, the great hero of Olympus, has accomplished many tasks in his lifetime.

Among his projects, 12 were particularly well-known.

The hunt for HYDRA in Rene Swamp was the second of 12 tasks, literally defeating HYDRA in Rene Swamp.

“But even Hercules in the underworld could not kill HYDRA. because one of the nine Hydra heads had immortal power. ”

The nine-headed Hydra was famous for its powerful poison of fear, but it also had powerful weapons, so it was close to immortality and infinite regeneration.

The head in the middle of HYDRA has immortality that does nothing. Here, the other eight heads have the ability to regenerate cutting tribes, so it was truly an impregnable fortress.

Hercules threw it into the swamp instead of killing HYDRA, then placed a huge rock mountain on it and sealed it alive.

Taeho looks back at the Lerne swamp at the bottom of the hill, returning the explanation he heard from Athena. In the depths of the swamp surrounded by poison, a pile of rocks stood out.

[Sealed]

[Hydra]

The dragon's eyes saw red writing underneath the rock. After being sealed alive for hundreds of years, I felt anger and resentment even in the red paper.

“I'll save you soon. ”

Taeho, who spoke small, turned around and carefully examined the condition of those who came with him.

Five Adenmaha, Nidhog, Rollo, and Drakon Ismenios, seven to Siri and Braki.

With the exception of Nidhog, who was originally a poisonous dragon, all six were thoroughly prepared for the poison.

However, without any relief, Taeho once again engraved a rune on each of his bodies. A rune that Odin engraved when he went to rescue Needhog, with the power to protect the owner from poison.

Did you learn that by becoming Odin's successor? ’

‘Yes, Lord Odin is also a magical god. ’

You may not have inherited all of Odin's vast knowledge, but you can learn dozens of powerful rune magic. When fighting Ares, the thunder and lightning that ignited Tor were also greatly enhanced in their dominance over Trait Runes.

After engraving the runes, Taeho looks back at one more person and says,

“I'm going to start right now. Everyone remembers the operation, right? ”

“Yes, I'll make sure of it. ”

Needhog, the most motivated member of the group, replies with a clenched fist. She was the most important role I could play.

“Okay, then let's get started. ”

Taeho claps as he turns to the Rene swamp.

&

There is no thought of HYDRA sealed in the deepest depths of Rene's swamp.

At the beginning of the sealed period, I struggled to escape and tried to stay conscious, but I gave up on everything about 10 years ago.

Thoughts were pain, not freedom, when you could not move under heavy rocks.

So HYDRA had no idea. I tried not to think of anything.

Hundreds of years.

HYDRA wakes from her long slumber, frozen like a rock. It's because I can feel someone coming.

You're not just a bunch of idiots who wandered into Rene's swamp after they got lost. Most of them were surprised by the poison and had to go back near the entrance.

The approaching ones have come very deep. If HYDRA's senses aren't dull, it's not far from the rocky mountains. Even the streets were closing.

HYDRA swallowed my thirst without even knowing it. I felt my heart beat for the first time in hundreds of years.

Who's coming?

Why are they coming?

"No, don't count on it. Don't count on it. ’

I was disappointed because I was expecting it in the first place. I don't know who came, but HYDRA must have come to save himself. HYDRA herself was a terrible monster.

Thyrne HYDRA tries to fall into a deep sleep again. But I couldn't stop the pounding of my heart. I couldn't help but look forward to it.

They're coming. They're coming. ’

Not one. Several. He even came right up to the rocks.

What are they up to? Why I'm here.

It was not important. HYDRA decided to focus on just one thing:

If you're here to clear the rock, if you're here to kill yourself, if you're here to save me, if you're here to free me from the Seal.

I won't miss my chance. I'm going to burst out of this hellfire.

‘And if, really if. ’

If you're here to save HYDRA's life.

He wouldn't be in this world, but if he were,

I have to repay you for everything you've done.

In the beginning, HYDRA was not such a vicious monster. I was closer to being good than the gods of Olympus, which are famous for being poisonous. Stuck in Rene Swamp in the first place, worrying about the damage his poison can do to the surroundings.

HYDRA swallows her dry saliva once more and focuses on what's going on over her head.

The rocks are moving.

At first, I wanted to shake very slightly, but then I started to move very much.

The rock is collapsing. It has been crushing the body for centuries.

My breath was hard. I felt like my heart was going to burst in this dream reality.

And then one day.

The weight of the rock was less than a tenth of the weight of the whole body. At this weight, HYDRA was able to stand up with her own strength.

HYDRA is feverish. She roars and struggles. I tried to soar to freedom.

But that was the moment.

“Huff-!"

HYDRA vomits a breathing sound. He would, too, because the moment he got up off the rocks, something bigger hit his whole body.

“Master Taeho! Can we do this?”

“Well done! Crush it!”

A giant black dragon, about 100 meters long.

HYDRA was huge, but it was only 30 meters from the tip of its head to the tip of its tail. Even the body type was close to the snake, so it was not comparable to Nidhog in terms of size.

HYDRA struggles to see who is pressuring her, but she can't move. I had no choice but to lift my head and look at him.

And HYDRA swallows her breath again. He was dead to those who looked down at him.

Once there was a white giant dragon. The purple eyes looked very frightening as they were spilling white light from their mouths.

Next to it was a much uglier red dragon. With each breath, a flame came out from near my mouth, and my eyes looked very ugly with yellow color.

Next to it was a golden dragon. The red dragon was evil, but the gold dragon looked even worse. Unlike the two dragons next to you, I was even more afraid to look at HYDRA myself.

Those who clear the rock mountains.

There they are, three dragons clearing the rock mountains.

But I didn't think it was to save myself, the same monster.

“Worthy master, you have a very rebellious eye. I think we should start beating again. ”

“I can't help it. I've been locked up for hundreds of years. ”

The golden dragon made a misleading sound. HYDRA quickly rolled her eyes to find the one who called the golden dragon Lord. I see a man standing tall in front of a white dragon. You feel a great power in him, surrounded by the dark blue sanctuary.

"No, you must be mistaken! I'm not rebellious! ’

HYDRA shouts in haste, but all that comes out of her mouth is groaning.

“Well, let's get started. ”

At the moment the man spoke, the dragons began to move. Otherwise, HYDRA's head was crushed with most of the neck on something, and the two men next to him stepped forward with a very large sword.

"Really?"

The man opens his mouth again when HYDRA is overwhelmed by fear.

“It's almost limitless renewable, not really limitless, so you'll get tired if you keep cutting. They're already pretty frail. ”

“Is the first thing to become a god beheading · · · · · · · ·. ”

“It's not just any snake. And an infinitely regenerative neck. Sounds like fun.”

A woman standing next to him and a large man approach with a thunderous voice.

No! No! Wait! Let's talk! ’

HYDRA shouts again, but it's just a groan. Unfortunately, no one seems to understand HYDRA.

“Here we go!"

The thunder rumbles as the big man shouts. Then eight heads began to cut off.

“Wow! It's playing! ”

“Stop messing around and cut! ”

"Grrrghhh!"

HYDRA screams mentally. The head has been cut off by a regenerating tribe. Even when I tried to struggle at the moment of regeneration, I couldn't help it.

It is because the existence of the whole body was greatly limited in the operating range of the neck, and because the heads of the three dragons could not be crushed at that time.

“Master Taeho, he looks very sick. ”

“I can't help it. People who've been trapped alone for a long time are usually poisonous. At first, I have to repay the person who rescued me.If the imprisonment gets longer, my grudge grows too big to save me, and I just want to kill Nabal. Things are different from Needhog in many ways. ”

“Poor thing. ”

As the man spoke with a very sad face, the voice over his head shed a gloomy voice.

And in those two conversations, HYDRA went crazy.

We're not there yet! I gave up thinking before I got there! ’

But I didn't touch it again. After my throat was cut and regenerated a dozen times, I could live without it.

“Well, look at that. That evil look. ”

“Master, I'm sure it's a bit dangerous. ”

The golden dragon and the white dragon saw a single word.

I was thankful that the red dragon was only doing things with a grumpy face because it scratched my nerves in different ways.

And how many times did he cut his throat again?

But after centuries of imprisonment, I was weakened. Regeneration somehow allowed it to shrink and not be able to do anything. I was so close to my eyes.

“I can cut it off now. ”

“I agree. ”

The big man - Bracki said, and the woman with the wolf ears and tail - agreed.

‘Is it finally over · · · · · · · ·. ’

HYDRA forcefully raises his eyelid to close and looks at the approaching man - Tahoe. Taeho looked at HYDRA politely and suddenly jumped up and took over HYDRA's head at once.

[Company: Conqueror of Dragons]

I didn't feel the resistance to say that it was worth nearly a hundred slashes. Rather, I only heard a voice close to the horror that told me to boil it or bake it.

‘I knew there was a good chance of success once I lost my strength and captured it. ’

For a moment, Taejo thought of the Monster Collection Game he enjoyed while he was a professional, nodding a few times before focusing on Saga again.

HYDRA was the one who wanted to keep it like Athena said. No special action was needed, as was Drakon Ismereos, who was a man who sought to maintain and yet sought to be destroyed.

However, Taeho did not reap the dragon conqueror. There was another reason to capture HYDRA in the first place.

Mother of HYDRA.

Mother of all monsters.

Tifon, HYDRA's father, was a man who wished to be destroyed. But that mother, Ekidna, was the one who wanted to keep it.

In Asgard, it was similar to the Fire Giant Loki and his wife Angra.

Taeho wanted to know the location of Ekidna.

Not only was she a powerful polyp, the mother of many monsters.

The voice that turned Olympus 12 weeks into wanting destruction.

Apollon said the owner of the voice assumed Titan Kronos, but Hades did not.

Kronos, who was banished from the throne of the gods, denied it.

Then who would it be?

Who changed Olympus Week 12?

Taeho did not miss his essence. It was a situation against the 12-weeks of Olympus centered around Zeus, but it was a real less voice. I had to find out who he was first.

‘If the gods don't know, the monsters gather information. ’

Ekidna, the starting point for many monsters, could have been a god of monsters. She was a strange creature who tried to keep herself, but maintained a very close relationship with those who wanted to be destroyed.

Get information from her about the owner of the voice. She, a stronger polyp than HYDRA, could be a great help in future battles, even if she doesn't get information.

The place where Ekidna, the mother of monsters, lives.

HYDRA's memory answers Taejo's question.
