Name: Venom Hydra Rank: C+ Genus: Pseudo-Dragon (Hydra) Attribute: Poison Traits: Reptile (Poison), Serpent (Toxic), Multi-Headed, Pseudo-Dragon, Hydra

Description:

The Venom Hydra is one of the many "basic" hydra species that exists on Terra Sol, and one of the most common breeds known to the general public.

It is a gigantic threat to humanity, spewing poison and preying on unsuspecting adventurers if they get too close to its lairs created in poisonous swamps, making it one of the top 3 most hated hydra species at the Adventurers' Union's "list over dangerous monsters". The other two are the Lava Hydra and the Scream Hydra.

It is common to find this creature inside Poison-based Dungeons, not that it makes it any easier to clear the related Dungeon because of that.

Appearance:

A Venom Hydra is a reptilian creature with four legs, one tail, and multiple heads attached to long, snake-like necks. The number is different between the different hydra species, but the Venom Hydra possesses 7 of them, making them the C-rank hydra with the most heads.

The Venom Hydra is also large enough to swallow a mid-sized human with ease, and they often prey on large cows when they get close to human settlements to search for food.

As one can expect from their name and attribute, the Venom Hydra's scales are poisonous purple. Some may wish to use said scales for accessories due to the potent purple color.

Abilities:

Danger rank: C+

Rarity rank: C+++

As one could suspect, a Venom Hydra is extremely dangerous, coming from its venomous nature and its high self-recovery abilities.

Their inborn attribute and poison-related traits grant them an intense advantage when it comes to poisoning their enemies, and even their environment, granting them not only an advantage in battle but also the ability to customize their living habitat. Fighting a Venom Hydra where they have a home-field advantage is close to suicide. On the other hand, any place that cannot turn into a poisoned swamp due to the Venom Hydra, such as a cave, would theoretically be the best possible location to fight one of these reptilian nightmares.

After that, a hydra's natural self-recovery abilities are so great that they can grow back missing heads! However, as a strange twist of fate, they are incapable of regrowing limbs or missing organs, so ignoring the heads and going straight for the main body is one of the more fruitful tactics one can employ when facing a hydra species. That is, as long as you can evade any potential giant snake mouths trying to have you for lunch.

Garami's comment: This time, the Kigal-Note's completely forgetting about the most important thing. Just how profitable these guys are!

Bloom's comment: No, that's just in Master's case. Also, telling people they can earn lots of money by hunting these creatures will reduce the overall population of adventurers all over the world...
