Only other living beings who were not native to this lake could not use their abilities once they went too deep into the lake.
Ainsley didn't know that others could not even use their abilities that could be seen with the naked eye.
Ainsley could use her love virus only because her ability was invisible to the eye.
The water of this lake did have a problem and Ainsley also had a hunch that maybe, just maybe...
There were beasts and monsters here who could devour special energy, draining the energy of any ability users which was why the ability users could not use their abilities.
Ainsley tested another batch of monsters and beasts to test her hypothesis and she had to wait for a full ten minutes to finally find some strange water monsters and beasts who devoured special energy!
Yes. The water didn't eliminate the live virus, but the passing monsters and beasts sucked the love virus inside the bodies of the experimental beasts and monsters without eating those beasts and monsters.
Even some mutated plants that floated everywhere beneath the water just like living beasts also devoured the love energy of the love virus inside these beasts and monsters' bodies.
What a terrible truth!
Ainsley could barely control her impulse to give up on this mission.
No wonder the mission to find the monster cub was rated A+ and the other one was rated B+.
To be honest, the mission could even be categorized as S-level, okay?
But there should be some tricks to face this problem, which was why the level of the given mission was not S-level but only A+ and B+.
Ainsley didn't rush to do more experiments because even with the passive skill 'Love Battery', she was afraid that the energy would not be enough for three days of consumption without relying on potions.
In an environment that required people to be on guard anytime, Ainsley didn't want to overdraw her love energy just for this mission.
And to be honest, the Love Battery passive skill was more efficient when the people who donated the positive energy to Ainsley were watching Ainsley while the passive skill was used.
In another word, the people who didn't watch Ainsley's live broadcast or who were not watching any videos, movies, or other things related to Ainsley, would only contribute very little positive energy that could be converted.
This is also why Ainsley agreed to make herself a 'mascot' for various entertainment sectors such as movies, novels, documentaries, TV dramas, online dramas, games, anime and so on.
Ainsley even endorsed several daily necessities' products but those products were usually related to kids and Ainsley's requirement was to have her face printed on the product itself.
This way, the baby could get more or less the same converted energy from the people who didn't watch any live broadcast because as long as they were looking at something related to Ainsley, the passive skill worked well.
The range of the passive skill was usually transferred to the outside world through something like the live broadcast, and if there was no live broadcast, the passive skill would need anything that displayed Ainsley's appearance.
Of course, it had to be some kind of video and not a static picture.
Still, the biggest harvest was probably from the people within the range of the passive skill itself and not the ones through the live broadcast or other indirect contact.
If the direct contact contributed 10 energy points per person to Ainsley, the live broadcast contributed 8 points and recorded videos, movies etc were only 5 points.
The rest of the contribution made from indirect sources only scattered one or two points per person.
Ainsley didn't shut down the use of her passive skill but she stopped feeding energy to the love virus inside various plants.
With no energy, the love virus would slowly disappear in no time, but as long as Ainsley fed the love virus some energy before they disappeared, it was not a problem.
There were also some special love viruses that could enter a dormant mode, always sleeping inside the body of the infected victim and would wake up once Ainsley reconnected her control to this love virus and feed them energy.
To be honest, such an ability was already not an ability and more like having a strange pet that could be used to control and spy people, but who told Ainsley to actually create a new skill like that out of her charm ability?
The baby redrew her ability and slowly moved away from the lake area, afraid that there would be some surprise attacks there.
To be honest, the forest not far from the lake was not as dangerous as the other parts of the forest, as if the area around the lake was protected by something.
The passing beasts and monsters who came to drink the water in the lake were also rarely harmonious, almost no predators would prey on the animals who drank water here.
Unless that predator was the plant in the lake or the natives of the lake.
It was really as if the lake controlled the passing animals not to grab food with the natives living in the lake!
Ainsley walked to one of the nearest trees with a head full of various plans, not knowing that the other six contestants slowly approached the baby with tacit understanding.
They could see that this baby was safe and sound even after staying at the edge of the lake for so long without getting attacked by any mutant plants in the lake.
This baby should be someone special!
