Hercules defeated the Lernaean Hydra as part of his second labor by using a combination of strength and strategy. He would cut off one of the Hydra's heads, but for each head severed, two more would grow back. To counter this regeneration, Hercules enlisted the help of his nephew Iolaus, who cauterized the neck stumps with a torch after Hercules cut off each head, preventing them from regrowing. After killing the immortal central head by burying it under a heavy rock, Hercules ultimately vanquished the creature.
