Endless Evolution: Last Star

Chapter 657 Obsidian Hydra

Long, voluminous jets of steam came out of two dark nostrils, not from a human but from a sleeping monster.

Obsidian Hydra was several dozen times the size of Obsidian Spiders, the Elite Obsidian Spider, which was much larger than its younger relatives, was comparable to Obsidian Hydra's head, or rather one of its heads.

The Obsidian Hydra had three large heads, with elongated jaws and long fangs protruding slightly under the thick hide.

Its entire body was covered in dense protective scales that reflected light from nearby crystals, however, its belly and the inside of its long necks were stripped of such protection, replaced by a thick beige skin composed of membranous fabric wrapped in several layers.

The Obsidian Hydra was stripped of both horns and tail, however its body had excellent balance thanks to its massive, heavy torso and four strong paws with short but sharp claws.

However, unlike lizards and spiders, it was obvious to Silvana and the others that Obsidian Hydra's primary weapon was not its physical strength or defense.

From time to time, a light energy vibration passed through Obsidian Hydra's body, emanating from the monster's chest.

Below its three necks, on the front of its torso were twelve massive crystals like those of Elite spiders or lizards, but that was just the outside for the giant-sized round crystal filled with pure energy.

"How much time do we have?" Silvana asked realizing what Obsidian Hydra was doing.

'Enough. If you look closely you will see that Obsidian Hydra is not lying on the ground but on a pile of energy crystals.'

Silvana lowered her gaze as Adam said.

"I see..."

From beneath Obsidian Hydra's heavy body peeked a layer of gray debris, long depleted crystals.

"Damn, there's enough of them in there for a thousand Obsidian Spiders." Abel was shocked.

Talna shook her head.

"Of course, because Obsidian Hydra is much bigger than spiders and lizards. Obviously, it's going to need a lot of power."

Adam continued in a calm voice:

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

The massive scissors shuddered, dense black energy running along the blades at the sharp edges.

Then, Silvana stepped forward, holding her weapon firmly with both hands. She thrust the scissors forward and opened them wide at maximum amplitude, staring intently at the Obsidian Hydra's right neck.

She knew her limits, there was no way she could kill such a large monster in one attack. Explore more stories with My Virtual Library Empire

A bright light from the energy raging within filled her eyes, causing Obsidian Hydra to flinch at the unfamiliar ripples, but it was too late.

In a heartbeat, in front of Obsidian Hydra's left head appeared a massive replica of Silvana's scissors of black as the depths of the abyss of energy, were wide open mimicking the movements of their owner.

And, then...

Snap.

Silvana abruptly closed her scissors, a loud snap echoed throughout the spacious cavern, quickly reaching the cold walls.

Immediately, a ghostly replica of her scissors repeated her movement.

Two broad black blades closed around Obsidian Hydra's neck, easily passing through the protective scales and thick hide that even the Elite Obsidian Spiders couldn't bite through with their powerful jaws.

A mad grin appeared on Talna's face, her bloodshot eyes watching with obvious pleasure as the huge neck, more than ten meters long, flew off to the side along with Obsidian Hydra's right head.

A wave of bright pain went through every cell of Obsidian Hydra's body, awakening it from its deep slumber.

"ROOOOOOOAAAAAAAAARRRR!!!!"

A painful howl roared from the two remaining heads while a fountain of dark blood erupted from the right head, or rather from what was left of its long neck, the cut was two meters above the Hydra's body level.

"Hehehehe, minus one, now there's only two left." Talna chuckled evilly, her voice sending shivers down Abel and Silvana's backs.

"However... We'll have to fight fair this time." Talna uttered looking at the Obsidian Hydra's rising above the ground.

The two heads glared viciously at the two Phantoms standing in front, no bigger than ants, but far more dangerous and deadly.
