Chapter 130: Disaster Evaded?

YuWon frowned. He had hoped the attack would knock the Hydra-ling down, as it did to Michael and his lackeys. As his plan failed, YuWon decided to take some other measures.

But just as he was about to attack the Hydra-ling, he heard a loud gurgling sound. A second later, a sudd water jet exploded from the swamp directly under the Hydra-ling.

The monstrous creature got thrown into the air. The sudd force caught it off guard, and it began thrashing its heads wildly while in the air.

"Well, that wasn't what I had in mind..."

YuWon realized what had happed. [Tectonic Slam] wasn't meant to be used on water. So wh he used the skill, it targeted the solid surface under the dse swampy waters.

The shockwave th created ough pressure for a water jet to shoot outward, throwing the Hydra-ling in the air. As the Hydra-ling descded, YuWon saw an oping.

As soon as Hydra-ling came close, he swung both blades at it. As Anna said, the reanimated weapons could break through the Hydra-ling's scales. However, it couldn't inflict deep wounds.

YuWon swung the Noir blade next, but ev th, the wound wasn't deep ough to kill the being. However, as YuWon jumped away, he noticed something strange.

A blackness spread from where he had hit the Hydra-ling. Within seconds, the darkness seeped into the Hydra-ling's flesh, causing it to screech in pain.

"What the hell--?"

[Achievemt: You call that Invincible? is active. The Awaker will deal 0% damage.]

The beast began thrashing wildly, hitting anything and everything in its way. It slammed into several nearby water lily pads where some awakers stood. The force knocked overturned the leaves, sding them into the reanimated-filled waters below.

Meanwhile, YuWon had his eyes somewhere else.

This... system.

YuWon's mouth twitched as he read the new title he had unlocked.

[Achievemt unlocked!]

"You got a plan?"

"...would I be standing here if I had a plan?" YuWon sighed. "Wait... maybe I do. I'll need your help."

"What do you need?"

YuWon told him what he wanted to do. As the plan unfolded, Lucifer's grin wided, and he nodded. With that, they split up and headed toward the hydra.

YuWon took the left side while Lucifer wt to the right. The Hydra's heads hissed and snapped in their direction, ignoring the searing pain.

Just as the Hydra's left head lunged at YuWon, he sidestepped, and the head slammed into the g, missing him by inches. Lucifer did the same on the other side. Out of sync, the heads couldn't focus on one target.

The heads growled at one another, before YuWon threw a stone at them, getting their atttion back. The heads lashed out, but once again, they couldn't target both YuWon and Lucifer simultaneously.

Their frustrations grew and so did their anger. Once again, the two heads lunged, one wt for YuWon, the other for Lucifer.

"Now!" YuWon shouted.

In perfect sync, both YuWon and Lucifer leaped forward and punched the heads with all their strgth, sding the heads crashing into one another. That was the breaking point.

Both heads hissed and snapped at each other, their irritation turned into full-on aggression. The next momt, the heads lashed at one another, each head trying to bite the other's throat.

As the heads continued their violt struggle, the second head let out a roar. In response, the reanimated corpses lurking in the swamp moved, climbing up the water.

The second head called for them to attack the other head. However, they couldn't scale the body. Instead, they attacked the Hydra-ling's shared body.

The reanimated creatures clawed and bit into the Hydra-ling's flesh. Their blood spilled across the swampy waters as the heads thrashed about. With each passing momt, the Hydra-ling grew weaked.

The two heads, now heavily injured and bleeding from the constant attacks, kept tearing at each other until they had no strgth left. The creature let out a last roar before as the heads slumped to the g.

As the Hydra died, so did the reanimated creatures. One by one, they fell into the water, sinking into the swamp without a sound.
