I get stronger by sunbathing, just like Superman.

Leona was a little disappointed, but she quickly smiled and knelt down in front of Anna, saying happily:

"Anna! I have good news for you... My foster mother... Her Majesty the Queen has agreed to let you stay on the island!"

We can be friends forever! Haha…

Even after Leona's smiling face became somewhat stiff, the other party still did not react.

Looking at Anna's beautiful yet incredibly aloof face, Leona couldn't help but sigh inwardly...

Since meeting her that day, although the two didn't end up fighting, and with her constant attempts to befriend her, Anna gradually lost her hostility towards her, which was a good thing...

But even now, she only knows her name; she knows nothing else.

All I know is that she seems to really enjoy sunbathing; she always stays in places where the sun shines and then just sits there, lost in thought.

I don't know what I'm thinking...

A moment later, Leona seemed to have made a decision. She grabbed Anna's hand, and Anna turned her head, a hint of doubt in her eyes.

"I'll take you somewhere!"

Leona smiled mysteriously, then, ignoring the other's resistance, she swept him up in her arms.

Leona, who was slightly taller than Anna, held Anna in her arms and jumped off the cliff in front of her!

The next second, she reappeared in mid-air and leaped towards the foot of the mountain. Each jump and landing was dozens of meters away, and her movements were incredibly gentle, as if afraid that the person in her arms would feel even the slightest jolt...

Soon, she carried Anna to a waterfall and placed her on a flat, large rock.

"Wait for me..."

After Leona finished speaking, she plunged headfirst into the pool dozens of meters deep beneath the waterfall…

Not long after, she broke the surface of the water and flew dozens of meters high... then landed on the shore, still holding a fat fish that was constantly swaying in her hand.

She pulled out a small knife from her waist and cleaned the fat fish in no time. Her skillful technique made Anna, whose expression had remained unchanged, reveal a hint of curiosity...

She watched quietly as Leona prepared the fish, started a fire, set up the grill, and began grilling the fish on skewers...

Leona also took out some spices from a small pouch at her waist and sprinkled them on top, instantly filling the air with a fragrant aroma.

While waiting for the fish to cook, Leona sang to Anna to cheer her up. Although the tune sounded a bit strange, Anna listened very attentively.

At this moment, the aroma of the cooked fish wafted through the air. Leona grabbed the scalding hot fish in her hand, tore off a small piece, tasted it herself, and showed a satisfied expression. Then she tore off another piece and handed it to Anna.

Anna just stared blankly at her, at the fish she was playing with between her fingers, without reaching out to take it…

"Ugh…"

Leona sighed as if she found it troublesome, then offered the fish directly to Anna's lips, but the latter still hesitated and refused to open her mouth.

Leona wasn't in a hurry; she just kept her arm raised, seemingly intending to keep it up until Leona finished eating…

The two of them were in a stalemate.

A few minutes passed, and just as the fish was getting cold, Anna finally opened her mouth slightly…

Leona, as if possessed, suddenly moved her hand back a short distance.

Anna's mouth met empty air, but she only looked at Leona with a puzzled expression before leaning forward and biting into the fish again...

Leona moved her hand back again...

Anna followed along...

Leona continued repeating her previous actions, while Anna relentlessly pursued the now-cold piece of fish…

From the moment I first saw that silver-haired girl…

She just wanted to be friends with the girl...

She grew up on this island and had never seen anyone from outside. Her foster mother told her that the humans outside were all bloodthirsty and warlike savages.

But the humans in front of her were not what she had described…

In Leona's eyes... Anna was like a frightened hedgehog; her coldness and ferocity were only to protect herself...

She started to approach her... to please her, to try and make her happy...

Anna straightened up, looking at Leona with a strange expression, somewhat puzzled as to why she was making that gesture.

"What are you doing?"

"I...I don't know..."

Leona suddenly felt Anna's body in her arms gradually getting cold...

She quickly looked up and saw that Anna's face was extremely pale! Her body was swaying uncontrollably... and she looked incredibly weak...

“Anna…Anna…what’s wrong…”

Leona's expression changed drastically. She quickly pulled her into her arms and called her name repeatedly.

Anna seemed to have no strength to respond, and simply stretched her hand slowly into the air...

Leona looked in the direction her hand was pointing... but all she saw was a cloudless, clear sky, except...

sun.

sun!

Leona then realized that she and Anna were under the shade of a tree!

Recalling the image of Anna always basking in the sunlight, she quickly picked her up, pushed off with her feet... and in the blink of an eye, she was hundreds of meters away at the edge of a cliff, in a sun-drenched spot...

Golden light instantly enveloped the two of them.

嗏

Anna's condition has not improved; her body temperature has dropped to the point where she feels like an ice cube.

No...no...no...

Leona watched helplessly as Anna grew weaker and weaker, her body temperature dropping lower and lower, and tears welled up in her eyes instantly…

Anna, however, never lowered her hand towards the sun... as if trying to grasp something...

Leona, tears streaming down her face, looked up at the sun and cried out to it in a sob:

"The great sun god... Apollo...!"

I am Athena, the goddess of war and wisdom, daughter of Elgon…

Leona, Elgon!

I beg you... to heal my Anna!

Her cries echoed throughout the heavens and earth... but there was no response from the direction of the sun...

Overwhelmed with grief and indignation, Leona gritted her teeth, stood up, and suddenly spread her arms wide behind her!

In the distance, two streaks of light rapidly rose into the air! They spun quickly as they hurtled towards Leona!

Clang!

Two exquisitely crafted scimitars, gleaming with light, landed in her hands! Their sharpness was blinding…

"I command you!!!"

With red-rimmed eyes, she pointed the knife at the sun, her voice filled with anger.

"Heal my Anna!!!"

Shortly after she finished speaking, a blurry figure seemed to appear in the dazzling sunlight…

In the instant Leona was stunned, the figure had already appeared in the air above her...

"Anna...it's time to go back."

Lei Ming slowly landed on the ground and walked towards Anna who was lying on the ground.

He had known for a long time that Anke and Anna had separated into two bodies, but he hadn't had time to pay attention. Just now, he heard Anke's call, saying that she sensed Anna was in danger.

He then activated all his senses... flew across most of the Earth, and finally found this place, discovering this huge island hidden deep in the ocean.

It is shrouded in some kind of power, making it invisible and imperceptible to the outside world.

But for him, who possesses clairvoyance and telepathy, it's all useless...

"stop!"

Leona suddenly blocked Lei Ming's path, charging towards him with her twin swords crossed.

"Who are you? Apollo?"

"I am not Apollo..."

After Lei Ming finished speaking, he looked at Anna on the ground and said, "But I can save her."

His X-ray vision clearly showed that Anna's energy was rapidly depleting, and he estimated that she would 'die' soon...

She was, after all, only a part of Anke that had split off. Even if she had half or more of Anke's abilities, she couldn't absorb and convert stellar energy like Anke could, just like a worn-out battery...

She needs to recharge.

But he couldn't explain these things to the woman in front of him, even though he didn't know what her relationship with Anna was that made her so nervous.

He could tell that this woman was no ordinary person, but Anna was technically an alien, so whether she could understand what he said was another matter.
