Chapter 23: Hdra, the Hydra of "Resurrendered from the Dead
Chapter 23: The Hydra of "Resurreath from the Dead
Little Kratos's life is as calm and simple as ever. However, Zhang Shen saw something called "deadness" from the speech and expressions of the adults in the village.
Spartans are very good, not only to select Spartan warriors with extremely strict standards, but even ordinary Spartans have the courage and ability to be as ordinary nomad warriors.
It can be imagined that what can worry these people is naturally not a trivial matter.
After some exploration, it turned out that a violent Hydra suddenly appeared in the southern seaport, which destroyed the harbour, killed many people, and remained lingering and interrupted normal commercial navigation. It is a very important commercial port, and these days of closure have affected the villages and towns of Kratos.
"It's also an acquaintance with Kratos. I'll help you." Zhang Shen thought for a moment and had nothing to do. Just be an unknown hero. If you brush your clothes, you will hide your merit and fame.

Two days later, the harbor of Radus.
The once prosperous harbor became depressed under the *** power of the Hydra, especially in the part near the ocean. Except for snakes, insects, rats and ants, a creature living in the dark corner, there is not even a seabird.
The air is full of a strong fishy smell, mixed with a strong cold smell, which is the smell left by the Hydra. Looking closely, you can also see semi-wet and semi-dry traces on the destroyed buildings and the ground. Looking at the shape, it is mostly left by the body of the Hydra.
It was learned from the residents who destroyed their residence but did not want to leave that several groups of people had come to eradicate the Hydra before Zhang Shen. Among them were soldiers, rangers, knights, wandering mages and even heroes and demigods. Unfortunately, they all failed and became a meal in the belly of the Hydra.
The local elders guessed that this powerful Hydra is likely to be the legendary monster - Hdra!
Xudra is the son of Difeng, the ancestor of the monster, and a snake demon. It is the first Hydra in the world. It is very powerful. It not only has the ability to regenerate, but also has the magic of controlling venom, smoke, water, ice, mud and other substances. Unlike its children (ordinary multi-headed snakes) who can only live in swamps, Xudra prefers to stay in the shallow sea area and even live and fight on land for a short time, which is omnipotent.
In legend, Hdra was killed by the famous demigod hero and later Hercules with the power of divine fire. The locals speculated that this Hydra was Hendera. In addition to the relevant abilities it showed, more information learned from the surviving snake warriors: the nine snake necks There are traces of being cut off by sharp weapons and burned by flames, which is very compatible with the legend.
"Oh, is this God's punishment? Why does this legendary monster appear again..."
Zhang Shen looked at these locals who knelt on the ground and prayed for God's blessing, and didn't know what it was like.
A noise came, with footsteps, horses' hoofs, shouts, crying, and a mess. Many people are approaching this side. Immediately came into sight. The few people walking in the front were obviously more elegant than the surroundings. Their skin was delicate and exuded the majesty of staying in power for a long time. Behind them were a group of armored soldiers, and there were several prison cars in the middle, full of No. 20 or 30 people, who were desperately begging for mercy and crying, describing them as miserable.
"What is this?" Zhang Shen asked the old man beside him.
The old man showed sadness and helplessness: "Sacrifice."
Sacrifice is the main means for all races in this world to please and serve the gods. For example, the sacrifice of monsters at this moment also happens from time to time. After all, for weak mortals, powerful monsters are more terrible than national racial wars, because you have no possibility of victory. After all, there are too few heroes and demigods in the legend.
Zhang Shen stood aside and watched the development of things.
They grabbed a man from the prison car, hung him on the top of a long pole, and slowly controlled the long pole to extend it over the ocean. After that, several soldiers shot arrows at the man who was hung up. The arrows sank into the body, and the blood dripped into the ocean.
The surrounding atmosphere is extremely solemn, and Zhang Shen can hear other people's breathing and heartbeat. They are very nervous.
The sea stirred and the waves were raised.
With the strange hiss, the Hydra appeared in the huge waves.
Dark cyan black triangular scales, thick snake neck, corner dragon-like head, prominent sharp teeth, cold and violent snake eyes. As soon as the Hydra appeared, there was huge pressure and all-round pervasive. It was like the feeling of being stared at by countless snakes in the snake cave made people's body and body. The whole body trembled.
" mortals, are you going to worship Uncle Xudra?" The cold and strange voice came to everyone's ears. This Hydra was indeed Xudra, the ancestor of the wise multi-headed snake and the powerful monster in the legendary story.
In its eyes, in addition to the coldness and the violence of choosing people, there are also humanized jokes and... inexplicable... nostalgia?
"Mr. Xu, Mr. Xudra..." The man with the most colors of clothes forced a smile and trembled slightly. "We are willing to offer flesh and blood sacrifices on time. Please allow us to go to sea freely."
A snake's head suddenly stretched out, opened its mouth, swallowed the prisoner who was still wailing into his abdomen and swallowed it directly. It tastes good." The middle head grinned and smiled.
"That..."
Before he finished speaking, Xudra's other eight heads rushed out and ate all the people in the prison car three or two times.
It was extremely fast, and people didn't realize it until ten seconds later. I don't know who screamed and was about to run away.
!!!
The middle of the head narrowed, and the materialized pressure was covered. Those who wanted to run immediately became rolling gourds, falling on the ground one by one, with a frightened face, and the last trace of resistance disappeared.
Kill the chicken and warn the monkey, and no one dares to move.
Xudra nodded with satisfaction. For a moment, it opened its mouth again.
"You have only one way out, believe in me!"
"From now on, I will be your god!"
Wow~~~
Even if they are in the midst of Xudra**wei, people can't help but be in an uproar.
"Interestingly, this snake dares to call itself a god. It's really not afraid of death." Zhang Shenra watched the development of things interestingly. He still has a certain understanding of the world. In order to maintain his orthodox status, the Olympian gods are absolutely immortal to those who dare to be arrogant, unless you kill the twelve main gods alone.
This unwritten rule should be clear to Hendra, who has lived for so many years.
"You blaspray, you will definitely be killed by my lord..." A white-haired old man suddenly stood up and roared at Xudra with great excitement, but before he finished speaking, he was swallowed alive by a snake head.
"Lord Poseidon is absolutely...ah!"
"My Lord will definitely punish..."
"The heresy! Blaspying..."
............
............
At the moment, the guys who were almost scared to pee because of Xudra's magic power scolded Xudra one by one as if they had beaten chicken blood. Of course, they all end up being swallowed alive on the spot.
Hedra had already expected this scene, and the movement was very fast, and nearly 200 people were swallowed by it in more than a dozen breathing. These are firm believers, and their belief in God has long been engraved in the bone marrow.
There are only sparse 30 or 40 people left on the field, almost all soldiers and wandering warriors. The perennial life of licking blood with knives makes their belief in gods very weak and rationally.
"Very good, the stubborn guys have eaten up. What's your opinion? I'd like to hear your opinion." Xudra's eyes swept around the crowd on the field.
Zhang Shen can feel a trace of seriousness in Hdra's tone. This product is serious, not a pastime in "dining". Obviously, this snake is determined to compete with the gods of Olympus and make himself a god. I don't know where it comes from.
"Think about it, you will be my first divine servants. Whether it is money, women, wealth, status or strength, I can give you. As long as you give your piety to me.
"Think about it, do you still want to continue this kind of life?"
โ......โ
While everyone was restless, Xudra sprinkled a handful of sweet dates after a head-on hit, and Zhang Shen also noticed that it secretly used some kind of magic, and every word contained silent ** power.
I have to say that this snake is really not simple. In other words, it is not easy for a wise guy to live so long. Xudra is like this, and so is Cerberus, who was killed by Zhang Shen aggrievedly.
For a moment, someone's will was finally disintegrated, and his knees softened. He knelt down and saluted Xudra.
The second, the third...
A person knelt down one after another and became the first believers of Hdra.
Soon, there was only one person left on the court, which was particularly annoying.
Xudra increased the pressure and was ineffective; its eyes began to condense murderous intent.
Zhang Shen's idea moved, and the door of truth appeared in front of him, releasing the power of the realm of truth between spins, and easily disintegrated Xudra's pressure.
Compared with Cerberus, Hendera is far worse.
"I don't like the gods of Olympus, and I'm not interested in what you do. I'm just a passers-by, just passing by here." Zhang Shen made clear his neutral attitude.
Unfortunately, Xu Dera, who had a hard time "come back", only had the idea of "rather killing by mistake and not letting go" in his head, and attacked him without saying a word.
However, it is surprising that while attacking, this ferocious and vicious Hydra actually created a storm to send its 30 "believers" away from here!
When did the Hydra become so kind? This is not scientific!!
When Zhang Shen was slandered, several huge snake heads surrounded themselves from all directions, opened their mouths, and a strong fishy smell came to his face, which was suffocating.
