Detailed explanation-1: -Anyone who attempted to behead the Hydra found that as soon as one head was cut off, two more heads would emerge from the fresh wound. The destruction of the Lernean Hydra became one of the 12 Labours of Heracles .
Detailed explanation-2: -There was only ever one Hydra, a monster created specially by the Goddess Hera. Generally it was said to have started off with nine heads; however the earliest artistic depictions show six heads, so maybe it started with six (or even fewer) and had already gained three more by the time Heracles and Iolaus met it.
Detailed explanation-3: -What are the Hydra’s powers? The Hydra’s most obvious ability is to regenerate. However, it also possesses poison blood and can blow poisonous fumes from its numerous mouths.
