Eventually, they could soon see waterweeds swaying and rocks studding the lake floor, and between two of these rocks was a gap in the lake wall.
Evan slipped inside and Eliza followed, encountering the interior that was lit by a bluish glow cast by some strange aquatic plants.
Appraising those plants to be sure they were the ones he was after, Evan swam over to them and coated his palms in aura before uprooting a few of them, as doing so without energy was nigh impossible.
He tossed them into his inventory, mentally marking another item off his list of required materials for the vanquisher weapons, and then cutting a few other plants for Milena to use and increase the quality of her water energy infusion.
The cave continued for a while, going farther and farther down, and they two swam on as fast as any fish.
Eventually, they arrived at a branched path, and Evan, having known the route already, picked the left path without hesitation.
