[Ancient Boros Hydra (FF+)]
(Level: 222]
Physical: 400,000][Mental: 510,000](Will: N/A]
The infinite heads of the hydra rose up into the skies and unleashed a roar that broke barriers of time and space.
Just what sort of concept was it to have an infinite number of things, all with a voice of their own, roaring at you in unison? It was the sort of thing that could break the Will of a man.
And yet, Sylas only took a single step and appeared in front of the hydra, peering down on it as it suddenly moved to attack him.
But just as it seemed the first head to arrive would swallow him whole, it actually passed right through him as though it had stopped being corporeal at all.
Chi.
The head that attacked him burst into a rain of Runes from Sylas' position, delaminating as though a sticker suffering from waterlogging.
Mathematicians on Earth said that there were differences even between two infinities. There were finite infinities and true infinities.
it seemed that in practice... this was true as well.
The Boros could only barely tap into the essence of infinity, nibbling on its edges and trying to replicate it. To their credit, at least they could certainly do so out of this Tower of Champions, while Sylas could not.
The moment their comprehension of infinity came across Sylas' existence, it was as though it realized it wasn't even on the same playing field.
Broken and unable to touch upon an existence so much greater than itself, it passed right through Sylas as though it was trying to attack something far grander than it could fathom.
Then, Sylas movedโiust the slightest twitchโand yet that was enough to change everything. It broke apart in real time, shattering into a rain that caused one of the Boros to cough up a mouth of blood.
Sanzi felt his mind shake, and the smallest bit of disconnect caused all of them to separate, coughing themselves even though it didn't go as far as to draw blood. However, Sylas' sharp eyes did notice one or two of the snakes, or hydras, on their heads dying and turning to ash. It seemed that in order to survive the backlash, they did the equivalent of lopping off an arm to avoid poisoning the rest of their bodies.
Except in this case, they had hundreds of arms.
Sanzi looked up with horror in his eyes. He knew that Sylas was powerful, and he hadn't exactly tested the latter's bottom line. That was why he had been so cautious in the first place.
But Sylas shouldn't be this powerful.
Could he be?
