"My luck isn't bad. The first Water Elemental Sprite produced a crystal. Unfortunately, it's not a Companion Egg," An Sheng said with a smile.
Zhou Wen constantly searched for Water Elemental Sprites on the island, hoping to have a Companion Egg drop. However, Zhang Yuzhi wasn't interested in Companion Eggs. All she did was take a few photos with her phone as though she was touring.
Why is that Water Elemental Sprite a little different? When Zhou Wen and company arrived beside a waterfall, they saw a strange Water Elemental Sprite.
Typical Water Elemental Sprites were blue and looked spherical, but in fact, they were in the shape of water droplets. However, this Water Elemental Sprite was silver. It didn't look like a water droplet, but a snake.
"This should be a high-level Water Elemental Sprite. It might be at the Epic stage. Be careful," An Sheng said irresponsibly.
Zhou Wen was indeed very careful. He summoned the stone armor and didn't approach the silver Water Elemental Sprite. He summoned Overlord Sword and slashed from afar.
The water snake didn't dodge. It opened its mouth and spewed out a silver stream of water. However, the stream of water it spewed out was somewhat strange. It was in the shape of a venomous fang.
As the sword beam slashed across, the water snake's venomous fangs were shattered. The sword beam continued slashing at it.
Seeing that the situation wasn't looking good, the silver water snake turned around and burrowed into the pool under the waterfall. Its body was similar to water, so the moment it entered the pool, it immediately vanished. It was impossible to determine its location with the naked eye.
Thankfully, Zhou Wen had Truth Listener. The Truth Listener earring's ability ignored color, so he immediately saw the silver water snake's location in the pool. Zhou Wen chased after it and slashed a sword beam into the pool.
Boom!
The water surface was sliced apart by the spinning sword beam, slashing apart the silver water snake's body. Even the water-elemental crystal in its body was shattered.
A silver crystal-like Companion Egg fell out and sank to the bottom of the pool.
"A Companion Egg actually dropped?" Zhou Wen stood by the pool and observed for a while. Seeing that there were no signs of other dimensional creatures in the pool, he jumped into the pool and dived to the bottom.
Zhou Wen reached out to pick up the Companion Egg. Just as he was about to float up, he suddenly felt a huge suction force at the bottom of the pool, causing his body to sink instantly as though he had been sucked away by a toilet.
Splash!
Zhou Wen fell with the water and realized that there was a huge space beneath the pool. Beneath it was surging seawater.
Zhou Tou looked up, but he couldn't find the hole that he had fallen from. Above him was a black rock without any gaps.
He slashed at the rock and the sword beam shattered a huge chunk of the rock, but there was still rock behind it. Zhou Wen slashed a few times, but it was all rock. There was no exit.
On the other hand, there was light coming from the place where the seawater flowed, as if it was the exit of a tunnel.
Zhou Wen had no choice but to follow the water flow and head for the exit. As long as he could leave, it wouldn't be difficult to circle back to the pool.
Soon, Zhou Wen rushed out with the water. After exiting, he realized that he was at the exit of a waterfall.
After Zhou Wen came out of the waterfall, he floated in midair and was alarmed by what he saw.
Because this waterfall and the pool below, no matter how he looked at it, were the ones he had fallen into. However, he had clearly fallen into the pool, so how could he have come out from the mouth of the waterfall above?
Zhou Wen carefully sized up his surroundings. Indeed, there was nothing wrong. The surrounding environment was identical. It was the pool he had fallen into, but there was no An Sheng or Zhang Yuzhi beside the pool.
Don't tell me they went into the pool to look for me? Zhou Wen thought to himself as he flew higher to confirm if they were still on the island.
When he flew into the air, the small island was immediately taken in by Zhou Wen.
It was an extremely beautiful island with lush green grass everywhere and clear spring water surrounding it.
However, when Zhou Wen's gaze landed on a spot, his pupils constricted. On a grassy slope, there was an apple tree.
There was only one apple on the huge apple tree, but it was somewhat unusual. It was as though it was made of gold, emitting a resplendent luster.
Under the apple tree, there was a huge black lizard sleeping. The lizard was even bigger than an elephant.
Soon, Zhou Wen realized that it wasn't a lizard, but a dragon from the West District's mythology. This was because lizards didn't have wings, but the dragon had two folded wings on its back.
Golden Apple … Dragon … Zhou Wen was alarmed and puzzled.
This was somewhat similar to the myths and legends Zhou Wen had read before. Legend had it that the human hero, Paleus, married the Sea Goddess. He invited all the goddesses to attend their wedding, but he didn't invite the Goddess of Discord, Eris. Eris bore a grudge and took out a golden apple to give to the guests at the wedding. On it were the words "For the most beautiful goddess."
In the end, Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite argued over the golden apple, eventually leading to a human battlefield.
Legend had it that the golden apple tree in the holy garden was guarded by a hundred dragons, but that was only a legend. This place didn't look like a holy garden no matter how he looked at it.
The black dragon under the golden apple tree didn't look like a hundred-headed dragon either. It only had one head.
Zhou Wen didn't know what the golden apple was for, so he didn't wish to snatch it. Nor did he plan on disturbing the black dragon. Although it might not be a hundred-headed dragon, dragons themselves were legendary Mythical creatures. Zhou Wen didn't wish to take the risk.
However, what puzzled Zhou Wen was that they hadn't seen the golden apple tree before they arrived on the island, much less the dragon. Why did these things suddenly appear?
Zhou Wen sized up the entire island, but he didn't find An Sheng and Zhang Yuzhi. What was even stranger was that even the boat they had left on the beach had vanished.
Could it be that this isn't the island from before? It just looks a little similar. When I passed through the cave under the pool, I arrived at another place? The more Zhou Wen thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. Bam!
Bam!
Just as Zhou Wen was pondering over it, he heard two splashes. It was as though a rock had fallen into the water. He turned his head and saw An Sheng and Zhang Yuzhi fall from the waterfall into the pool, stirring up a huge splash.
They were fine and quickly crawled out of the pool. However, Zhou Wen felt that something was amiss. He turned his head to look at the black dragon under the apple tree and indeed, he saw that it had already woken up from its slumber. It slowly got up and looked up at the waterfall.
"Zhou Wen, what are you doing up there?" Zhang Yuzhi shouted at Zhou Wen when she saw him flying in the air.
