When Lin Ruo rode her motorcycle to the place where the two mountain peaks met, she found that the water level, which was originally half a meter deep, had risen to nearly a meter overnight. She frowned and looked into the distance. The water level had risen so quickly that it seemed the melting of the ice sheets at the North and South Poles was accelerating.
She looked at the opposite mountain peak and estimated the distance to be about ten meters. She revved the motorcycle and sped off. Standing on the motorcycle, she raised her arms, and the motorcycle leaped upwards, quickly crossing the ten-meter stretch of water, continuing towards the fortress.
When Lin Ruo got home, the sun was already slightly up. She put the motorcycle into her spatial storage. Because it was so hot, the clothes under her heat-insulating suit were completely soaked with sweat.
Ah Fu and Ah Shou had already returned and were lying under the willow tree, panting with their tongues hanging out. There were several lumps the size of an adult's fist on the hairless parts of their bodies.
They would occasionally stretch out their hind legs and scratch themselves vigorously, and some of the bumps had already bled from their own scratching.
These bites were from mutated mosquitoes. Lin Ruo sighed slightly after seeing them. She had thought that these mosquitoes wouldn't appear so early, but she was wrong. There was already a large area of seawater at the foot of the mountain, which was indeed a good breeding ground for mosquitoes.
Several mutated beasts were placed on the platform of the fortress. This time, the types of mutated beasts had changed: a wild yak, a roe deer, a wild deer, and an animal that Lin Ruo did not recognize.
This animal looks similar to an antelope, but it has long manes on its head and back. I don't know what kind it is, but it's quite big, already 6 meters long.
Seeing Lin Ruo return, they got up to greet her, their huge heads trying to rub against her clothes, but Lin Ruo grabbed them. Their heads were covered in the blood of mutated beasts, and they still wanted to rub against her!
"Go take a shower first!"
Afu and Ashou stood up instantly and ran quickly into the house. During the extreme cold period, they just didn't resist taking a bath, but now, taking a bath is what they like best. They can enter the space while taking a bath, and they can play in the water, which is cool!
Lin Ruo now uses cold water to bathe them, and they like to soak in it to cool off!
Lin Ruo put all the mutated animals on the platform into his spatial storage. He didn't know how long they had been back. The weather was so hot, and if the mutated animals weren't put into his spatial storage soon, they would spoil.
She placed the essence of the mutated plants she had extracted outside that day into a large basin and presented it to A-Liu. A-Liu happily stretched out her willow branch and plunged it into the basin to absorb the essence quickly.
Lin Ruo then poured lake water on A Liu before taking A Fu and A Shou back to the fortress.
After returning to the fortress, Lin Ruo stored them in his spatial dimension. Then, two huge water spheres appeared in the space, completely enveloping Afu and Ashou.
Ah Fu and Ah Shou were happily splashing around inside, and the whole dog relaxed.
Lin Ruo then skinned and gutted all the mutated beasts he killed that day in his spatial dimension, and then put them into the static space.
She then filled a large cup with lake water and sent it out of the space. A blue light flashed in her eyes, and tiny water droplets immediately appeared on the cup. The water in the cup had become ice-cold.
She gulped down the large glass of ice water, then sighed, "A glass of ice water is so refreshing in this kind of weather."
To save electricity while they were away, she had turned off all the air conditioners and fans in the house. Now that they were back, Lin Ruo turned them all on one by one.
The air conditioner blew out quickly. Lin Ruo stood in front of the air conditioner and felt cool at first, but after a few minutes she felt hot again.
There was only some floating ice left in the four large ice basins at home; they had all melted into water because the weather was too hot.
A blue light flashed in Lin Ruo's eyes, and the water in the basins surged again, instantly turning into a huge block of ice that emitted wisps of cold air into the air.
The air conditioner fan was blowing hard against the ice, and Lin Ruo only felt cool when she stood next to it.
She looked at the thermometer hanging in the living room. With so many cooling measures in place, the temperature was still around 38 degrees Celsius, which was fine.
Afu and Ashou should be able to accept it, so I added ice water to their water basins.
Lin Ruo's spiritual power sank into the space. Afu and Ashou were still soaking in the water. Lin Ruo collected their water spheres, shook them dry, and took them out of the space.
The two giant dogs felt hot again as soon as they came into contact with the outside temperature. They ran to the water basin with their tongues hanging out and drank a lot of water. Then they ran to the large ice basin and rubbed their bodies against the ice.
Lin Ruo prepared meat from the level 2 mutated baboons he had hunted that day, along with chilled watermelon to cool them down and quench their thirst.
While they were eating, Lin Ruo used her mental energy to enter her spatial dimension and retrieve some leftover scraps of cloth. She then sewed three breathable cloth bags into the space. Although they didn't look very nice, Lin Ruo filled them with medicinal powder and tested them. They didn't spill out, so that was fine. She also put some mosquito and fly repellent powder inside each bag.
She took the cloth bag out of her spatial storage, walked over to Afu and Ashou, and hung one on each of their collars. Afu and Ashou were focused on eating and didn't care at all what Lin Ruo had hung on them.
Then Lin Ruo placed her hands on their bodies and used her water-based powers to heal the large bumps on their bodies. These bumps were not noticeable on mutated animals, but on humans they were incredibly itchy and took a long time to heal.
Lin Ruo had tested all of these powders on other mutated animals, and they were basically harmless to their bodies. She kept the last one for herself. Although she had water-based abilities that allowed her to create a shield, having this medicine was more convenient, as the mutated mosquitoes and flies would stay away from it.
Although it was only 38 degrees Celsius inside the fortress, Lin Ruo's appetite still hadn't adjusted. She only ate half a chilled watermelon before going to bed.
Although she was lying in bed, Lin Ruo couldn't fall asleep at all. This was the time she exercised every day. She forced herself to sleep, knowing that she would probably be living a life with her days and nights reversed for the next two years, and she had to adapt as soon as possible.
During the day, the scorching sun beats down on the earth, and the ground is so hot that it can melt the soles of your shoes; you'd be roasted alive if you went outside.
Although the fortress was a stone building, it was shielded from the sun by A-Liu, so the temperature wasn't as hot as it would be under direct sunlight.
Lin Ruo lay on the bamboo mat in the room, closed her eyes, and slowly drifted off to sleep.
