Chapter 288: Undefeatable Swamp Hydra

After Locke came to Cloud City, he first crippled city lord Reid’s son Morgan while at the same time killed a level four Beastmaster and his wave of guards.

When Reid heard this news, he was furious and wanted to tear Locke into pieces immediately.

However, he chose to endure.

Locke’s performance was so strong that Reid subconsciously thought that Locke still had a trump card.

After a series of analysis, he found that Locke had no background and no backing.

He was just a lucky fool.

It was even less noteworthy than the beautiful Hathaway beside him.

Hathaway had a noble background and was once the lord of a city.

Although she was later banished, it could not hide the fact that she was a god’s favored daughter.

Reid even had the thought of forcing Hathaway to marry his son after capturing Locke.

Although she was not a virgin, her bloodline could be combined with Morgan in the future. She would definitely be able to add a genius to the Morris family.

When he really fought with Locke, Reid found that his previous guess was completely correct.

Not only was it correct, it could even be said to be extremely accurate.

There was not a trace of nobility in Locke. He did not even have any traces of receiving the education of an orthodox Beastmaster.

This kind of fighting method, which was at a height of 100 meters, facing the aftermath of the fierce wind and the battle of the giant beast, raising the sharp sword and fighting with his life, was far beyond Reid’s imagination.

If he was careless and fell down, he would be smashed into pieces.

Locke rushed over again.

He grabbed the neck of the Swamp Hydra with one hand and swung over like a swing. He even made a roaring sound.

It was as if he was a real savage.

Reid was furious. He reached out and whipped the body of the Raging Flame Lion. He pulled out a mane and turned it into a javelin. With a whoosh, he threw it at Locke.

This time, he was filled with hatred. His strength penetrated through the back of the paper.

The javelin had yet to reach Locke. The sharp wind pressure even caused pain between Locke’s eyebrows.

At the critical moment, Locke directly let go of the hand that was holding the snake’s head. He fell freely to avoid death.

However, the huge snake was pierced through between the eyebrows. Of course, it screamed and died.

“Hahaha, let’s see if you still dare to be arrogant.”

Reid laughed loudly. He did not expect that his quick-witted attack would have such a miraculous effect.

However, before the laughter disappeared, a huge sword pressure swept over and shaved off a smooth piece of fur on the back of the Raging Flame Lion.

If Reid had not been quick enough, he would have leaped into the air.

His two calves were about to say goodbye to him after that attack.

“Little thief, you’re not dead yet?!”

Reid was both shocked and angry. He saw Locke stepping on another snake head and rushing over with large strides.

The five snake heads were like stairs, taking turns to stand in front of him, allowing Locke to walk on flat ground at a height of 100 meters.

As he sprinted, Locke shouted, “Old thief, if you don’t die, how will I die?”

The huge sword pressure slashed down from the sky. The tier 5 Battle Beast, the Raging Flame Lion, did not dare to stiffen up and hurriedly dodged.

For the first time, there was an opening in the battle.

Locke propped his hands on his knees and scolded while panting heavily.

The Swamp Hydra mercilessly pulled out the dead heads.

The heads competed to eat the flesh and blood, and the wound kept squirming. Soon, a brand new head came out.

Except for the fact that the body was a little wet, it was no different from the other heads.

There was not even a scar.

The heart-born head glared at Reid and opened its mouth. Hathaway actually walked out from inside.

It was not surprising that he did not see Hathaway.

It turned out that the Swamp Hydra had swallowed her when the battle started.

It was not until the battle had stopped that she came out for some fresh air.

Hathaway walked to Locke in small steps.

Hathaway took out a white silk handkerchief from her sleeve and wiped the sweat off Locke’s forehead.

Then, he took out a silver water bottle and fed it to Locke in small sips.

He had just experienced a battle, so he could not drink too much at once.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Reid almost died from anger.

At this moment, Reid was even a little envious of the Swamp Hydra.

There were benefits to having more brains!

The Raging Flame Lion was ferocious and its fighting style was a little too monotonous.

Fighting on the ground was fine, but in the sky, it was a little dull.

The Swamp Hydra was different.

With its nine attributes, it was like a fish in water on any terrain.

Furthermore, the nine heads worked together and had a tacit understanding.

Fighting it was equivalent to fighting nine type 4 Battle Beasts at the same time.

The pressure was multiplied.

The most infuriating thing was its terrifying regenerative abilities.

Reid finally understood why the Swamp Hydra dared to go head-on despite knowing that the Raging Flame Lion was a type 5 Battle Beast.

He then took a deep breath. The wounds that he had inflicted with his life had mostly recovered.

Especially the fact that the head that was killed by the javelin could be regenerated, causing Reid to feel despair.

At this time, Reid suddenly remembered a legend.

Legend had it that a long time ago, there was a huge ancient hydra that wreaked havoc in all directions.

Wherever it passed, it would turn into a stinking swamp, rivers and barriers, crops would wither, and people would have no way to live.

Later, a warrior took his dragon and set out to get rid of the hydra.

After several days of battle, the warrior’s dragon died in battle, and he was also seriously injured. On the verge of death, he finally chopped off the last head of the hydra.

It could be considered as a mutual destruction.

In the legends, there was only one way to kill the hydra.

That was to chop off its head.

He also had to pierce through its heart as soon as possible or else it would be reborn.

It was simply an undefeatable cockroach.

Thinking of this, Reid’s expression changed.

Although the Raging Flame Lion was one rank higher than the Swamp Hydra, if the opponent was an undefeatable monster, the Raging Flame Lion would eventually run out of energy if he continued to fight.

The Raging Flame Lion did not have the insane recovery ability of the Swamp Hydra.

Once it was heavily injured, it would be finished.

Not to mention anything else, falling from a high altitude of hundreds of meters was not something a human body could withstand.

Locke seemed to have never thought of this problem.

When he drank the water, his eyes were fixed on Reid.

The moment Reid’s fighting spirit wavered, Locke shouted, “There’s a flaw!” He jumped and pounced like a monkey.

The sharp sword in his hand released a dazzling golden sword pressure and slashed horizontally.

“Hmph, you’re courting death!”

Reid was furious. He grabbed a mane and used the same trick as before, turning it into a javelin. He gathered all his strength and threw it out.

Clang!

This time, Locke did not dodge. Instead, he chose to fight head-on.

The sword pressure and the javelin collided, making the sound of metal clashing.

Taking advantage of the moment when Reid threw the javelin and his body was stiff, the huge head of the Swamp Hydra turned around. It counted until the divine breath gushed out.
