Hyleg Ourobockle
- "Hiss! This is a restricted area, even for us Neo Arcadians... You will never leave here alive. Hiss!"
- —Hyleg Ourobockle, Forest of Dysis, Mega Man Zero 2
Hyleg Ourobockle (ヒューレッグ・ウロボックル Hyūreggu Urobokkuru) is one of the bosses of Mega Man Zero 2. Ourobockle is a Mutos Reploid based on the Ouroboros snake and the cobra, and was a member of Phantom's Cutting Shadow Squadron.
History[]
When Zero went to the Forest of Dysis, he fights against Hyleg atop a giant snake Mechaniloid called Altroid (アルトロイド Arutoroido), and recovers one of the Baby Elves after his defeat, prompting X to appear and warn Zero about the Baby Elves. During the mission, rescuing or not all five lost soldiers will influence the mission success and they can be visited on third floor of the New Resistance Base afterwards.
