The Elder Hydra, an existence which was far stronger than the other legendary rank beings, felt a sense of dread for the first time as Rudra suddenly released his full killing intent.

In the present moment, Rudra used the Dominator's Aura skill, which was exclusive to himself and brought out the terrifying auras of his own Dragon and Basilisk bloodline combined.

Compared to other subordinates including Omega who had Godbeast bloodlines, Rudra's was much more powerful and terrifying since others only had the bloodline from the descendant species and became variants of the said bloodlines. None of them were true Godbeast in the end.

In his case, Basilisks were one of the Godbeasts while Dragons were beings who stood above the godbeasts in the hierarchy of powerful species in this world, only below the Demi-Gods. Hence, his Dominator's Aura was the culmination of the best of the best.

If Rudra was of the same level as the elder hydra, a being comparable to a 5th stage saint, then this effect would be even more powerful.

Nonetheless, this was currently more than enough.

ROARRR!!

All the heads of the hydra roared loudly and frantically started attacking their targets, launching massive beams after beams of highly condensed elemental attacks that could even overpower another 5th stage saint like those from the Hero's Party.

BOOM!!

Jugram was hit with a massive and quick frost breath that instantly froze his entire body, forming a 500 meter tall pillar of ice while freezing the nearby 3 kilometers radius.

The aim was extremely fast and accurate despite being a 5 kilometer range gap between them.

And now that it stood up with its full body revealed, everyone saw its massive claws on the four legs and the 2 kilometers long tail at the back. The Elder Hydra was 5 kilometers long in total despite being already so big.

RAWWRR!!

This time, Jugram let out a massive burst of hellfire and broke through the gigantic ice pillar.

Even though he was only 2nd stage saint and couldn't use his buffs because they were fighting a single enemy, he was fairly capable to stall and protect himself against the ice elemental head.

Similarly, all the subordinates faced their respective opponents while using many of their attack and defense skills. Other than Omega and Rudra, everyone was having a hard time because although it looked like the 7 heads would be weak… their attack power, range and overall destructive capabilities were on par with 4th stages on their own.

Even Kahn, who was using Asura Mode was barely able to match the one he was fighting.

[Now, go for the central head.] ordered Rathnaar, the main tactician of the battle.

This time, Rudra's serpentine yellow eyes glowed brightly as he targeted the middle head from afar.

Crack!

Shatter!

Crumble!

And suddenly, the world around the Hydra started changing at a visible rate. In just a dozen seconds, the Elder Hydra felt like he was no longer on the dungeon floor but in a completely different world where there was nothing but lava and barren lands with black soil, boulders and dozens of tall mountains.

Slither!

Slither!

The distracted central head look around and felt like a black figure was slithering amongst the gaps in these mountains.

But soon…

HISSSS!!

An ear-deafening hissing reached its ears and the elder hydra was horrified for the first time.

A massive two-horned Basilisk that was 10 times bigger than itself arose amidst these mountains and glared at the hydra. Threatening its entire existence and revealing a disdainful aura as if it was looking down on this mythical rank floor boss.

In reality… this was just one of Rudra's illusions.

Rudra's Lucid Reality skill was even stronger than the one Kahn could use. And unlike the latter, it worked even on the beings who were stronger than him.

Just like Rathnaar suggested, the central head seemed to be the main CPU of the elder hydra which also commanded and attacked through the other heads in real time. So when Rudra put it under hypnosis, the other heads also stopped attacking.

This was an advantage Hero's Party didn't have because they were small-sized High Elves and not gigantic monsters with unique powers like Kahn's group.

Crackle!

BOOM!

In the real world however, Kahn and his group of Kaijus took this opportunity to kill the other heads in quick succession.

Kahn used the Dark Lightning Strike and obliterated the head he faced in a single shot.

However, the heads regenerated in matter of seconds.

[Human, it won't last for long. Isn't he done yet?] asked Rudra who was maintaining the illusion with great focus.

Suddenly, the Hydra broke free from the illusion and regained its senses. In the end, it was a powerful being on its own. Rudra's hypnosis wasn't going to affect it for long.

[Master, I'm done!] a stoic voice resounded in Kahn's head.

SHRILL!!

The Elder Hydra started rampantly attacking all the opponents as it felt great dancing, its mind telling it that something was amiss.

And as part of its instinct, it tried to retreat backward.

"Too late!" shouted Armin in his Erdtree form, his thousands of vines each being few hundred meters long and sturdy at the same time restricting the elder hydra from moving.

Omega also activated Gravity Imprisonment skill to stop the floor boss from moving.

All in all, this entire exchange was nothing but a pure distraction. The real objective was something else.

And now it was time for their gang… To land the finishing blow.

BOOM!!

BOOM!!

Dozens of Sonic booms resonated in the surroundings as the elder hydra tried to use its world energy to break free. Still, as Kahn said… it was already too late.

And finally, the Elder Hydra felt a sense of impending doom as a massive shadow was cast on its own body and it found where the life-threatening attack was coming from.

A loud and majestic voice resounded from the general who hadn't engaged in direct combat with the hydra even till this point, his words reverberated in the 10 kilometers radius as he announced the name of the finishing skill.

"Planetary Devastation!"
