The scene was utterly bizarre. Hydra should have died instantly after her heart was pierced, yet she did not collapse. Instead, she dipped her fingers into the blood gushing from her heart and kept writing cryptic characters across the statue.

"Something's wrong! Kill her, now!!" Jerec shouted.

Sariss rose to her feet as well and took a step forward. But when she saw Blackhole, the Priestess, and the others fighting here, she ultimately hesitated. She lacked both the courage and the strength to pass through the battlefield between three such powerful figures.

However, Blackhole had noticed Hydra's abnormality too. Within the spreading shadows around him, several figures swiftly lunged toward Hydra.

The Priestess frowned. Within Blackhole's spreading shadows, Judgment was clearly severely restricted, since she could only act through Force precognition. The Priestess immediately charged forward, and with a sweep of her Lightsaber, scattered several of the figures.

But there were too many figures, and Fa-Zol came charging in like a shadow at their heels. His face, covered in nails and rings, was now filled with cold killing intent. His blood-red Lightsaber, which emitted no glow at all, stabbed toward the Priestess's waist like a venomous snake!

Pff! Pff! Pff! The blades in those figures' hands pierced Hydra's body from different directions. There was clearly no way she could survive.

Yet suddenly, a startling change occurred!

The bizarre eye on the statue of Kolman-Lau, God of Destruction, suddenly seemed to come alive! The characters Hydra had written on it began to wriggle like tadpoles, climbing up the statue's body and finally gathering within that eye.

The stone-carved eye was immediately filled with countless bloody characters. Then, the enormous eyeball moved, lowering its gaze to stare directly at Hydra!

Under the God of Destruction's gaze, Hydra's body actually began to change!
