The Rise of The Mythical Dragon

Artemis didn't know how long she had been walking, and she also felt a little tired.

But she still persisted.

When Artemis felt that she would never be able to finish the stone bridge, she suddenly discovered that there was a faint cyan light shining in the mist in front of her.

Seeing the faint green light flashing, Artemis's eyes became extremely bright, and a surprise smile appeared on her delicate and beautiful face. Then she took a deep breath, Trying to calm down his excitement, he then walked forward.

However, although she had calmed down, she still couldn't suppress the restlessness in her heart, which made her couldn't help but trot over.

When she ran into the cyan light, she felt a very strong light blooming in front of her eyes, which was so exciting that she had to close her eyes.

When she got used to it a little, she slowly opened her eyes.

The moment she opened her eyes, she found herself on a huge cylindrical mountain peak, surrounded by nothingness, and made a strange howling sound, like a ghost crying or a wolf howling, which made people laugh. It feels extremely scary.

Artemis was a little dazed, and soon she saw a well standing on the ground not far away. A look of surprise appeared on her pretty face, and she rushed over quickly.

"Fountain of Life, I finally found you!"

Artemis murmured and ran to the well.

However, what Artemis never expected was that this well... was dry!

As the saying goes, dreams are beautiful, but reality is cruel.

The more you look forward to having something, the more you will find that you have nothing.

This made Artemis stunned.

She really didn't expect that the fountain of life... had actually dried up!

"No, this is impossible, impossible!"

Artemis was so shocked by the scene in front of her that her body went limp, her knees bent and she knelt on the ground, her delicate and beautiful face filled with a dull expression.

"I worked so hard to get here, and you told me that the fountain of life has dried up? What a joke!"

Artemis didn't want to believe the fact in front of her. She struggled to get up and half of her body reached into the dry well.

She widened her eyes, wanting to see if what she saw with her eyes was real.

However, no matter how many times she closed and opened her eyes, the scene before her eyes was still exactly the same.

It's still a dry well.

There is still no fountain of life.

"No--"

Artemis let out a roar, feeling like her heart was breaking.

She originally thought that as long as she found the fountain of life, she might be able to make a deal with her father, Zeus, and ask Zeus to let go of those mortals who didn't know how to practice.

However, what I never expected was that the fountain of life... was actually dry!

Doesn't this mean that she can't protect her people?

Immediately, crystal clear tears of sadness fell from Artemis's eyes and fell on the dry well.

At that moment, a dazzling light bloomed on the surface of the dry well, and then patterns appeared on the dry well.

This caused a look of surprise to appear on Artemis' delicate and beautiful face, and she quickly stood up and looked at the patterns on the dry well.

After careful observation, she discovered that these patterns were a kind of writing.

"This is a text from the age of the old gods..."

Artemis murmured. She still had some research on the texts from the Old God Era, which came in handy at this time.

"Life and death are endless, there is only circulation, the exchange of life and death, continuous..."

"Exchange of life and death?"

After recognizing the content of these texts from the age of the old gods, a look of astonishment appeared on Artemis's pretty face.

Because she really didn't expect that she would have to pay such a price if she wanted to obtain the fountain of life.

Artemis is very smart, and her IQ is no less than that of Athena, the goddess of wisdom, so she can understand the meaning of these texts from the age of the old gods.

As the name suggests, if you want to get the fountain of life, you must pay the price of a life, because only death can replace life upside down.

Only through the exchange of life and death can the cycle continue.

So does this mean that Artemis must give up her life in order to obtain the Fountain of Life?

When she thought of this, Artemis's lips trembled slightly, and a complex look appeared in her beautiful eyes.

To be honest, she is indeed willing to pay any price, including her own life, to protect those mortals who believe in her.

But what Artemis never expected was that it would come so quickly.

"It's just...I'm still a little reluctant..."

Artemis's beautiful eyes revealed a look of reluctance, her lips parted lightly, and she let out a sigh.

yes!

She really wanted to see more of the world, see more of the future for her people, and see what they could develop into.

However, she had no way to see it.

After all, if she does not exchange her own life for the fountain of life, then her people will not have any future.

"Apollo, I'm sorry."

Artemis murmured, then took off her moon laurel crown and kissed it gently.

The crystal tears streaked across the face and fell on the moon laurel, making the moon laurel shine with a faint luster, which was very holy.

Immediately afterwards, Artemis placed the moon laurel wreath on the ground, then she looked at the dry well in front of her, took a deep breath, stretched out her white wrist, raised her white jade hand, and took the He took out a dagger, bit his teeth, and scratched a scar on the palm of his hand.

Immediately, red gold blood seeped out from the scar on the palm of his hand and dripped towards the dry well.

Immediately, Artemis closed her eyes and began to recite a spell:

"The exchange of life and death lasts for a long time, life and death are endless, and the cycle of reincarnation..."

As the spell in Artemis's mouth rang out, and her blood fell into the dry well, then on the walls of the dry well, there were inscriptions that bloomed with dazzling light. From the bottom And up, it continued to spread, and then...
