Who killed Python in Greek mythology?

Heracles

Zeus

Apollo

Hermes

Python was the serpent, sometimes represented as a dragon, that presided at the Delphic oracle. Greeks considered the site to be the centre of the earth, represented by a stone, the omphalos or navel, which Python guarded. It became the chthonic enemy of Apollo, who slew it and took over Python's former home and oracle.
