197 The Eighth Wave (1/2)

People who were turned to leave quickly turned back when they heard the shout of the youth and saw a purple light on the hydra's stomach.

”Your royal highness, what's happening?”

Philea asked as Princess Audrey frowned

”Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr”

Suddenly Hydra's scream reverberated the arena as well as the outside. While screaming the Hydra violently shook its body and the heads started to collide with each other.

Bolts of lightning rained down around the hydra from the dark clouds above it while Audrey noticed the scream of the Hydra had become weaker as the purple light shade on its belly grew brighter.

When no one expected the belly of the hydra exploded and they saw a huge hole in his belly.

”GRRRRR!”

The hydra made a weak scream as the dark clouds started to disappear.

”Is that?”

The youths pointed out the belly of the beast and saw a figure stepping out of the belly bathed in blood.

A while ago when he was in the hydra's stomach, he drank three bottles of healing potion and heard the voice in his mind chant something as the pain in his chest that caused by the nails completely disappeared. He didn't know what the voice chanted except his battle energy totally replenished by the voice.

No one would have guessed that the hydra was indeed invulnerable to physical and magical attacks but it was on the outside. Of course, no one had the guts to jump into the hydra's mouth, even Don wouldn't have done that if it wasn't for the voice that told him to do so.

Even if they did know about this, not everyone could have done it as it required an extreme level of agility, speed, and skill to jump into the hydra's mouth without being roasted by the hydra's lightning bolts.

All said and done, when Don stepped out of the belly of the beast, Audrey stood up from her throne, like someone set a fire under it. Not only Audrey, every single one of them felt goosebumps on their body as he was bathed in blood and looked like a mythical demon.

After the last breath of the hydra left its body, a black lightning bolt landed before Don's feet as he saw a metal tablet lying on the ground. Don picked up the tablet and saw a figure of a ship on its surface.

When he closely looked at the tablet, he realized that the tablet was an instruction guide to assemble an ancient warship. He was glad that he had decided to stay in the area or he wouldn't have gotten this extremely valuable tablet. Putting the tablet in his ring, he walked towards the dead body of the hydra and cut its three heads with the sword he got earlier.

”What is he doing?”

No one had any idea why he was cutting the heads but only Don knew that the tablet required the heads of hydra as a material to build the ship.

After cutting the heads, he pulled out his shield from the hydra's mouth.

”The next wave will begin in two minutes”

The light gateway shone brighter than usual but Don didn't plan to get out considering now he had full strength unlike before. While he was standing there, he unexpectedly sensed a burning sensation on his body as he looked at his arms to see the blood of the hydra disappearing into his flesh.

He felt his bones and muscles getting refined by the blood; he never felt this stronger before as he could feel his organs and everything getting powered up. Noticing the miracle effects of the hydra's blood, Don quickly ran towards its body and started to slash the body to get more blood for Knight and his men, yet, the blood evaporated soon as it came out of its body.

”The blood refined his body”

Rosaline realized why he slashed the body after seeing the blood on his disappear from his body.

Don thought about going inside of its body again and tried to the vials with its blood and put it into his space ring before something happened. But in a flash, the body of the hydra dried up and reduced into ashes.

”I would have paid a lot if he had gotten the blood”

Rosaline said and every rich kid was thinking the same.

”The next wave will begin in one minute”

The mechanical voice sounded again as Don collected the arrows lying on the ground.

”I wonder if he sells the heads”

A youth asked his friend in a rather loud voice and his question reached everyone's ear.
