"Those plants look small from outside but they have a complicated root system, enough to drag an adult beast and monster into the lake."
The mutant plants in the lake were really not as harmless as it seemed.
"It's true that the area around this lake barely has towering trees and plants, only soft-looking grass and the lake. But we also suspect that the grass here will be strange when night comes."
When Ainsley came to the lake, it was already noon, and now, after all the toss, it was only a few hours before sunset.
"We have a guess that the inhabitants of this lake and the whole forest will be more active at night."
Although the Sun-kissed Forest had something to do with the sunlight, summer and so on, nighttime was still more dangerous than daytime.
"Aside from the attractiveness of the lake water, we also discover that any abilities that can be seen with the naked eye will lose its effect once it approaches the lake."
The gentle glasses man explained the case they encountered to Ainsley, which immediately attracted Ainsley's attention.
She didn't expect that the lake actually had a much more mysterious effect on ability users.
It turned out, visible abilities could not be used at all? Doesn't that mean her Realism Art would not work here?
The glasses man didn't know Ainsley's complicated feelings and continued to share some more information about the lake, the mutant plants in the lake and the animals inside.
"As for the beasts and the monsters in the lake, we have only found some small low-level ones near the edge of the lake and they are not aggressive at all."
Of course, if prey fell into the water, these harmless beasts and monsters would be the ones who rushed to eat the prey alive.
"We have only explored the areas at the edge of the lake, not too far to the center of the lake, but we do explore all directions and the plants living in various directions are also different."
Let's say that the place that Ainsley chose as her fixed point when she explored the lake was the south, which means the direction across Ainsley's place right at the other side of the lake was the North.
Then, the left side was the west and the right side was the east.
"The plants and animals living in the west are more used to cold temperatures, ice-element and they are mostly cold-blooded reptiles."
The animals there were aggressive, but they were more active at night than in the middle of the day.
On the other hand, the plants there were mild, and they only survived with the special characteristic of the lake's water to fulfill all the nutrients they needed.
The number of ordinary plants in the West was close to zero and almost all the plants there were mutant plants.
"There was one mutant plant with a different character than other mutant plants there, and we all suspect that this mutant plant should be the one with the highest IQ."
Just like what Ainsley said before, even among mutant plants, there were smarter and stronger ones, which were usually the leaders of the surrounding mutant plants or the 'generals'.
"That different plant is coincidentally the Acacia Water Plant which one of our teammates needed. This plant is well-known for its complicated and mysterious root system."
The target of the mission was precisely the root of this plant.
"The West side is like that, and the East side has more plants with warmer elements and they like sunlight a lot."
"These plants in the East are more active in the morning and at noon than at night."
Most of the plants on the East side were carnivores and they were also aggressive, which was why some of them were attacked when they stood at the edge of the lake.
On the contrary, the animals living there were not so keen on hunting prey on the land and they were mostly herbivore water monsters and beasts.
To be honest, these animals ate ordinary plants and sometimes the fallen parts of mutant plants as part of their diet.
They were also the 'enemies' of most mutant plants, which somehow slightly restrained the aggressive mutant plants in the East.
"The South lake, which is the place where you stand for so long, is coincidentally a neutral place where most lake inhabitants are too lazy to compete for food."
This direction was often used by land animals to drink water safely or the place where human beings sailed their small boats because the danger factors there were indeed low.
"However, the South Lake is also the place where the mystery of the lake itself is most concentrated, which means we really can't use any visible abilities there."
If they wanted to use visible abilities, they could barely use those abilities in the other three directions, but the consequences were also there.
"We don't know about the North Lake because it's too far from here and we have not walked around the lake to the other side, but we speculated that the North Lake should be a mix between the West and the East."
Anyway....maybe the North side was the most dangerous place among the other three directions.
As for the center of the lake....of course, the danger level there should be higher than in the other four directions.
No one had explored anything about the center of the lake because of something that the Merfolk woman was afraid of, which immediately deterred the rest of the contestants from probing that area.
Still, it could be inferred that the center of the lake must be hiding something dangerous and the mysterious monster cub that Ainsley needed should also be there!
