Chapter 135
In the basement under the tavern, Alexander let go of Michelle’s wrist, and she pushed her spirit energy into the ground and to the underground lake, so she could observe it herself. It was deep, but not wide enough to have evaporation strong enough to cause such dense humidity in the basement.
That could mean two things. Either that wasn’t the only lake like that, or the conditions underground were somehow changed, so the evaporation was faster. It could be both temperature and pressure. The evaporation could be faster if the temperature was higher or if the pressure was lower.
"Alexander, did you find any more lakes like this one?" Michelle asked as she pushed her spirit energy deeper into the lake, sensing for any abnormalities.
"No!" Alexander shook his head, his voice still playful. "Just this one."
Michelle pushed her spirit energy into the underground lake until it reached the bottom, the depth shocking her. It was so deep she could barely reach it with her spirit energy after pushing her dantian to its limit. And she originally wanted to spread her spirit energy all around the lake, but she cast that thought aside. It was impossible with her current strength.
Still, she could move the spirit energy she already sent out all around the lake, to check it out.
The spirit energy was like a long, thin thread which moved according to Michelle’s wishes, moving to the side of the lake, feeling around the walls.
After circling the walls with the spirit energy, Michelle frowned a bit. She couldn’t discover anything.
"Alexander, can you check the lake for me? I can’t find any abnormalities..." Michelle decided to turn to Alexander. Though she hated relying on others, especially those she didn’t really like, since he had already offered his assistance, she would use him. No matter how repulsive he was, he was still much more powerful than her, and filling the whole lake with his energy would be easy for him.
