Chapter 922 A Victory Cry
Standing on one of the highest restaurants in Burnham food street, Blackjack was staring at the large Mythical beast from above. He could see its large heads spiraling in all directions on the street.
It looked like an agitating infection was taking over the place, building by building.
“What the heck happened to the world while I was in that prison, that something like this can just happen in broad daylight, are the humans losing grasp on things… they have been doing so for a while now,” Blackjack said. “But I think I'll be able to deal with this thing.”
Taking a few steps back, Blackjack was ready as he took a run-up and leapt off the building, right down to the center of the Hydra. One of the heads had spotted him, and started to head his way.
Immediately, Blackjack’s eyes turned red, as the head went to bite him he stabbed his claw into the top of its head and then spun his body so he landed on top of it, and started to run down the back of its neck.
As he ran down the neck of the Hydra and attacked it, many of the heads turned and started to look his way.

More and more heads were starting to look his way, and as they dived to try and attack him, his fast nimble body was able to jump, spin, and land on part of the hydra without getting hurt while doing attacks of his own.
“This is just like fighting one of those great beasts; it's been a long tsince I’ve done something like that,” Blackjack said with a bit of excitement in his eyes. “Out here I can move as freely as I want, the main issue is that we need to deal with the heart… and its main body, what to do…”
As Blackjack was calmly avoiding the heads and throwing out attacks of his own once in a while, he noticed something happening at the bottom. One of the heads that was striking into a restaurant below, was being covered in Ice.
Right after, he saw two other figures run out, attacking one of the heads together. And soon the Hydra head was covered in ice, it was smashed to pieces and Ice himself was seen walking out with his large club and shield.
“It looks like Ice is doing good as well, let’s try to get this whole thing dealt with then!” Blackjack said as he started to move in quicker and towards the center.
Vere, who was on the ground floor and just saw Ice slam one of the Hydra’s heads away to the side, could see that most of the heads were distracted by something. When she looked up she could see red aura falling about and a man moving in a way she had never seen before.
“Is that the ally that you were talking about,” Vere asked.
“Yes, now let’s get rid of this big monster!” Ice replied charging forward to the point where he had run right past Vere and Vlad. It was impressive; she had never seen someone so strong, and a lot of what he was doing and with his build reminded her a lot of Austin.
One of the heads ccharging at the side, but Ice lifted his body and blocked the attack; he was pushed back only a few meters before he continued to charge in. As another head ctowards him, he then swung his giant club down, hitting it on top of its head.
The club had formed sharp spikes at the end sticking in its head. Continuing to move forward, he left his club behind and threw his shield away, while forming another giant ice spear in his hand; he could see the body in sight.
At the stime, there was Blackjack getting closer and closer, and finally, he could see an opening, holding out his hand, condensed blood started to form, until.
“Blood cannon!” Blackjack mumbled to himself.
A large beam of red aura shot out, hitting the center of the body, and Ice’s large spear had hit the body at the stime. It had pushed the body, hitting it back and crashing into the building behind them.

Everyone around was trying to see the situation; was the unkillable Hydra… was it finally dead? But they didn’t dare cout from where they were, for fear the large heads could move at any moment.
When Blackjack fell to the floor, moving forward along with Ice, they could see the dust starting to settle, but then on the ground of the building where the body had crashed into, they saw something strange.
“I didn’t know he could do that,” Blackjack said.
What they were all looking at were a trail of thin end parts of necks on the ground. They looked to have been detached from the body, but the body itself was nowhere to be seen that had been hit.
It was as if the body had served all of its heads to escape.
“What a strange Altered, but I doubt that he will be back,” Blackjack said.
As Ice and Blackjack stood there, they both then could hear something, a loud howl that resounded through the entire city. Perhaps everyone in Slough could hear it at that moment.
“I don’t know about you, but to me, that sounds like a victory cry,” Blackjack said with a smile.
