Chapter 48 - Shen Fei?

Alex found the entrance to the bas.e.m.e.nt and rushed down.

Darkness filled the bas.e.m.e.nt but this didn't affect Alex as he used his Soul Power to scan the entire place. He had also marked the people within the bas.e.m.e.nt as well as restricting their moves.

Alex put his hand in front and used Light Magic.

{Elemental Magic: Light Element: Luminous Ball}

A ball of light appeared in front of Alex as he continued walking. The light was so bright that it lit up the entire room.

After walking so much, He finally arrived in front of the room where all the white dots on his map were located. Alex pushed the door open and saw people hung from chains. Alex materialized a dagger and threw it at the chains. One by one, the chains broke and Alex caught everyone to make them land safely.

Their eyes looked at Alex but they had no energy to move. Seeing this, Alex used a Healing spell to make them regain their energy and heal from their injuries.

"He's here!" A voice suddenly resounded through the hallway. All the people Alex just saved showed fear in their expressions. This voice belonged to the person who has been abusing these past few days.

Many people could be heard rushing to their location. They all looked at Alex who was still calm throughout this situation. Alex felt the stares and lifted his hand.

{Elemental Magic: Darkness Element: One-Way Conceal}

This spell could hide them. The people outside couldn't see them but he could see them. He also quickly created a concealment formation to hide their auras.

"Huh? Where are they? I just felt their auras around here!" Voices of confusion could be heard as the sound of footsteps could no longer be heard.

Alex and the people he saved watched them. Alex didn't really care but he saw someone familiar within the group. He tried to remember who it was in his memory and he finally figured it out.

'Shen Fei?' He used his Soul Power to scan Shen Fei top to bottom.

'Why did it take me so long to figure it out? I guess useless people really are easily forgotten. He didn't even increase his cultivation since the day I left. ' Alex thought.

Alex didn't want to waste time anymore so he made everyone in the hallway go to sleep. Not only that, they would face their worst nightmares. Alex took down the formation and deactivated his Elemental Magic.

Alex quickly pulled everyone out of the bas.e.m.e.nt and brought them outside. He was curious about the assassin organization so he left them some money and some clothes he found.

Alex asked them a few questions about the situation but none of them knew anything. After parting ways, Alex once again rushed into the Institute to find some clues. How powerful was this organization to brainwash everyone within the Institute?

Alex went used his Soul Power to find the people with the highest cultivation. He might find some answers if he looked through their memories.
