470. That Moon, Round and Big
Although this monster only has a piece of body exposed on the surface, it is hard to guess how long the part hidden deep underground is.
But looking at the terrifying appearance, you can tell that there should be a longer and larger body buried underground.
Everyone was shocked. It was a huge creature, like a water snake, whose body was covered by a bright film that was difficult to refract from light. The upper part of an extremely ugly triangular head was filled with countless compound eyes as big as millstones, and it was occasionally shining by silver moonlight.
The purple-red tongue stretched out from the jaw and head like tentacles, squirming wildly around.
And behind the ugly head, there were two heads vaguely, but they were entangled by thick black air, and the boundary between them and their bodies was not very obvious.
On the tip of its tongue is an amorphous black evil spirit, which is illusory. Occasionally, you can see the sharp objects contained in it, perhaps its teeth?
It looks like a super giant snake in ancient legend.
Hydra!
Finally, when someone saw it, he screamed like he was crazy about gaining and losing his heart.
That's right, this is simply a mythical monster, the nine-headed giant snake.
Hydra is a mythical creature in human legends and appears most frequently in ancient Greek mythology. In human civilization, the "Ancient Persian Classics", "Bible", legends on the African continent, and in Eastern mythology, multiple monsters similar to Hydra can also be seen.
In fact, this kind of multi-headed monster is not only recorded in classics, but also appears in myths all over the world. In some areas, such as the "Yaki Orochi" in the Sun Kingdom mythology and the "Xialiu" in the Chinese Oriental mythology, they are all its incarnations.
Its weird image represents evil, huge body represents strength, and multi-head represents strong vitality.
What's more similar is that these monsters are one of the background legends of the great hero.
Although there are all kinds of things about this god in human myths, everyone in the world knows that it is not a myth, but a real monster.
Before humans could record their history in words, the Lord of the Ocean named "Dagon" and his spouse "Hedra", their descendants were spread across the planet, from deep seas to rivers and lakes.
Their offspring are collectively called "Divers", with amphibian heads, but their bodies are humans. It is unbelievable that the "Divers" have been entangled with the people of Jidu in history.
Hydra and Dagon are both called "ancient gods".
But no one can know whether these huge creatures are native species or alien species on this planet.
The ancient myths of the Jidu people are very vague, but some people call them "Old Dominators" because they once believed in an ancient god named "Cthulhu" in ancient times.
These people from Obsidian Temple are not very clear about the ancient documents in the holy city, but they all know one thing: there is a very important reason why "Ispatin" was built here. They don't know that there are actually two reasons here.
One reason is that because the mysterious meteorite containing Sartre alloy fell here and was buried deep underground. After the ancestors of Jidu people discovered its existence, they began to constantly try to mine.
Each gramat alloy is extremely precious. Just a small piece of fingernail can be fused with other mineral metals and symbiotic, containing huge and unknown energy.
In long-term research, the ancestors of Jidu people found that this alloy was like living. Although it was difficult to fuse them, once they were successfully fused, it also had an impact on the intelligence of organisms.
The Holy City of Huizhi has a very large demand for this precious alloy, but it is almost impossible to mine on a large scale.
The Sartre alloy rough stone exposed to the outside world has strong radiation and will have a huge impact on the human body. It must be passed through passivation treatment and doped with other metals and melted with special devices.
Therefore, a top cover must be added to the top of the Sartre alloy vein, and it must not be exposed to the air. Cultivators must be placed in strict supervision.
It can be said that the original design concept of the "Ispatin" temple was actually a secret arsenal in the Jidu people.
The second reason is basically unknown. The only one who keeps this secret is the high-level council and the Presbyterian House of the Realm.
In a very ancient era, the people of Jidu had an extremely fierce war with their alien enemies here. The war caused the surrounding area to be transformed into scorched earth, and the location of the temple of "Ispatin" was also destroyed by the powerful force used by both sides.
The terrifying radiant clouds rose, the ground became as soft as melting cream, and all species that lived here were wiped out.
Thousands of miles of white bones, thousands of miles of yellow sand, all the land does not grow in any grass.
Even the magnetic poles of the earth were changed instantly, and the iceberg appeared in the desert, and the cold wind with snow blew over the sky that was originally the equator...
The end of the war was almost both sides suffered. While countless alien creatures were suppressed, the people of Jidu also paid a tragic price.
Destroyed ruins abound, and even the palaces deep underground were shaking, but they still could not completely kill these alien creatures. Their powerful regeneration ability was temporarily dormant, which made everyone feel uneasy and fearful.
In the end, they successfully captured an ancient "god", which is Hydra.
After seven days and seven nights of massacre, Hydra's descendants, the "Divers", were almost all killed or exiled.
In the fierce battles that followed countless Jidu people, the enemy's limbs turned into their war songs in the bloody storm. They successfully imprisoned Hydra and her descendants here. Although only a very small part, their violent habits still made Jidu people panic.
To prevent Hydra from escaping, they used Sartre alloy to create a strong prison and transformed a set of devices left by the "Atlantis" to study the secrets of these creatures.
These people have long studied the genetic structure of Hydera and his offspring, hoping to find a way to assimilate in order to remove the fearful vitality of alien life.
In the years that followed, "Ispatin" dispatched the most powerful guardians to the ground of the secular world in turn, and applied a powerful sealing energy - a ban on spiritual power.
Such an approach once effectively curbed the emergence of threats.
But under the long-term effect, many things have been forgotten, and the guards stationed in the army have long forgotten their true mission and purpose.
Similar practices have been inherited in small quantities over the long river of time, but more formalism has been preserved and gradually evolved into another distortion and custom.
No one can tell what happened about the beginning and end of that war.
The classics of Jidu people record a few words, but they are all incomplete.
There are actually many species of alien creatures, including blood clans, werewolf clans, deep diving clans, winged flying wing clans, and mutated humans... But there is no record of the reason why these alien races suddenly reproductive and growing, and there is no conclusive evidence that they attacked humans first.
Before human history, there were many rulers on this planet.
The existence of those mutated creatures is universal, with a high level of civilization and wisdom, such as the Vampire, Wolf, and Deep Diver.
According to the literature of Jidu people, deep diving people are humanoid races living on the bottom of the sea: their bodies should be a gray green, although their belly is white. Most of the bodies are bright and smooth, but they have high ridges with scales on their backs. The body has the blurred characteristics of human shape, but the head is fish, with never-closed, huge, and protruding eyeballs. On both sides of the neck, there are constantly trembling gills, and webbed hands and feet.
When they march on land, they will jump forward in a mess, sometimes with only their hind legs, sometimes on all fours, and those hoarse and sharp guttural sounds... convey all dark emotions that cannot be expressed on their faces.
Duan Wenyu's forehead and back were soaked in cold sweat, and his empty sleeves trembled in the night wind.
In the Obsidian Hall, everyone realized that after they encountered the terrifying ancient god Hydra hidden underground in "Ispatin", everyone no longer had any hope of survival.
This kind of creature that only exists in myths and legends is difficult for humans to compete with. They are gods!
Everyone's consciousness is encroached on by a voice.
"Do you think you can fight me, a tiny reptile? I am immortal. I suck your brain dry, which is the gift I give you!"
Hydra's voice was like a declaration of death, constantly shaking in everyone's minds.
This is a sound that transcends the ordinary sense, directly connected to the consciousness of living things, and reacts to the whispers deep in the cerebral cortex. It is impossible even if you don’t want to hear it.
"Stop talking nonsense to them, do your business!"
Suddenly, the chaotic consciousness of the people in the Obsidian Palace was interrupted by another voice, and they felt a clear mind in their minds, and their thinking was pulled back by the sound of reality.
Duan Wenyu gasped, blocking his sight with one arm, for nothing else, just because a halo in front of him shone, which was extremely dazzling.
He saw the huge black shadow trembling violently in the light, and Hydra's ugly, high-rise head lowered with reluctance.
The beam of light came from two hundred meters away. A man was sitting on the top of a tall tree protruding on the mountain wall, as if holding a strong blowtorch in his hand. It was the beam of light that made Hydra lower his head!
"A Hounddog of the Obsidian Society? Who are you, why are you sitting here?" Duan Wenyu avoided the light and squinted his eyes to watch. He had already recognized that he was a member of the Obsidian Society.
The Obsidian Society is not unfamiliar with people in the realm. They are also a mysterious and powerful force in the realm. They hide from the edge of the dark realm. They are also an unknown evil organization.
The major sects avoided them because they were not pure blood people, but were descendants of the ancient Atlantis lineage. Their behavior was strange and their methods were despicable.
What's even more terrifying is that they touched almost all the taboos stipulated by the Holy City.
