Could it be that because of the long time and the fact that the bottom of the lake is mostly black reefs, the reflection on the lake surface is also this color?
She stopped the M80 and looked out the window, but still couldn't see anything.
Why was it that during the extreme heat, the artificial lake she passed by evaporated, while the water here was still full? Is the water here flowing? Why did the water accumulate here?
She suddenly had a premonition of danger.
M80: [Host, you can go out and take a look.]
"I'll go if you promise me I won't fall into the river when you open the door."
【……】What about the trust between people and the system? !
【I promise.】
Xie Purou knew that Tongzi couldn't cheat her, so she opened the car door and saw that it was no longer a car.
It was only now that she could truly see the entirety of the vehicle... uh... ship she was on.
"Oh my god!!!!" Xie Pu Rou couldn't help but swear.
She stood on the deck, five or six meters above the water. She looked down and saw the spacious, bright ship, several times larger than an ordinary sailboat. A robot, maneuvering from the control room at the bow, waited for her commands, and a display screen adjusted the speed and direction.
"What the hell is this?!" she couldn't help but ask.
[A sailing vessel transformed from an RV, impressive, right?] M80 said in a boastful tone.
"Awesome, awesome! You're the most awesome Tongzi I've ever seen!"
Xie Pu Rou spoke casually, walked to the side without stopping, and looked into the sea.
M80 hesitated to speak, wanting to say something but then thinking of the main system's death order, he could only say: [Host, be careful.]
She was confused. What was there to be careful about? It was just the surface of a large lake. What could possibly scare her?
While speaking, she stared at the water surface, trying hard to see what was at the bottom of the lake.
Maybe she was too far away from the bottom of the water, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't see what was below.
She could only move the boat closer to the shore quickly, and during this time she never took her eyes off the water.
When it was about to reach the shore, the boat automatically slowed down. The speed had stabilized and she began to observe the bottom of the water with all her attention.
At first she didn't notice anything unusual, but when she carefully adjusted her position and tried to observe the water more closely, her eyes widened instantly.
In the water at the bottom of the lake, she saw black human heads. To be more precise, they were zombie heads, as they were covered with black lines!
She adjusted her posture again, and her face was about to touch the water surface, but she found that the zombie was standing upright at the bottom of the water.
How could a human body stand upright underwater?! Water has buoyancy, yet they stood perfectly upright, unaffected by the current, suspended silently underwater, as if frozen in place by some force.
What they have in common is that their eyes are empty and their faces are expressionless.
The ship was not stopped, but slowly landed on land.
【Host!】
Xie Pu Rou came to her senses and turned her face away.
That was a close call! I almost had a fleeting kiss with the zombie whose head popped out of the water.
Why are there so many zombies in the water?
Just now, when she noticed the lake was black, the boat was roughly in the center of the lake. Does that mean there were also densely packed zombies under the center of the lake?!
The density of the zombies standing at the bottom of the water is almost as high as the seeds in a dragon fruit. With so many zombies, it’s no wonder the water level hasn’t dropped.
The extreme heat may have evaporated a large amount of water, but the land only accounts for a small part of the entire planet, and most of the water is water, so it is impossible for all of it to be evaporated.
The water panic was caused simply because people noticed that the already precious drinkable fresh water was evaporating much less.
It's so hot, no wonder the zombies have to hide in the lake...
However, zombies are transformed from people without vital signs. Most zombies in movies are caused by infection with the zombie virus. After losing a person's vital signs, the brain will die, and after brain death, it will be controlled by the virus.
These were things she had seen in movies, and she thought they made a lot of sense.
A zombie whose brain is controlled by a virus cannot be called a brain. Would a zombie without a brain seek benefits and avoid harm? Would it know that extreme heat is harmful to them and hide underwater?
She couldn't figure it out, but she felt she had to do something.
At her command, the sail came up to the land and turned back into an RV. She also got off the car on the shore.
After returning to the shore, she did not hesitate, standing on the ground and releasing her wood-type ability.
Vines as thick as forearms grew wildly, winding and circling like snakes, eventually forming a giant net.
She controlled her supernatural powers to drag out the two zombies closest to her in the water.
At this time, we don't care about appearance. We are just doing a random experiment regardless of gender or appearance.
The zombies really seemed to have consciousness. The shallowest part from the shore was above their heads. If it was shallower, they would not stand even if only their hair was exposed.
The shop owner's protective shield can make zombies ignore her, and they will not attack her if they cannot smell her. Even if there is an unintentional attack, it will be blocked by the protective shield.
But the zombie was actually struggling!
The two zombies caught in the vine net were struggling and roaring instinctively, as if they were very afraid of leaving the water.
Even so, Xie Purou did not show any mercy and still pulled them out of the water with the vines.
The zombies that left the water were extremely violent. With no targets to attack, they could only vent their dissatisfaction by roaring.
The vine net suddenly tightened, binding them up and hanging them in the air.
Xie Pu Rou took out a sofa and sat down. She wanted to observe how the zombies would react after coming out of the water.
If we can observe something, it will explain why zombies hide in the water.
The high temperature made the two zombies even more uncomfortable. Xie Pu Rou could see from her cold eyes that their skin would become drier every once in a while.
Suddenly, the necks of the two zombies began to swell and expand, their struggling became more frequent, and their bodies began to twitch.
She didn't know if it was her illusion, but she seemed to see the rotten flesh on the zombies becoming more and more corrupt under the sunlight.
She thought the zombies were about to die because they couldn't stand the sunlight, but at this moment, she suddenly discovered that the chest of one of the zombies was slightly bulging and its stomach was rapidly becoming shriveled.
Xie Pu Rou frowned and suppressed her nausea. She subconsciously moved away, fearing that she would feel sick, but she continued to watch.
The water in the zombies' bodies was continuously absorbed until the last two zombies became mummies.
She suddenly had an idea and threw the dried zombie into the water to continue soaking it, to see if it could be restored to its original state after soaking.
