Chapter 1164 Adventure Tour to the Underground

Lin Qiao’s vehicles were driving on the highway, with a giant black snake flashing through the forest by the roadside from time to time. On the highway, a large black dog darted from side to side while a one-meter-tall mushroom carried a young tiger on its head behind the motorcade, running swiftly with its roots and seeming very happy.

Shui Mingjun stuck his head out of the window to look at the large mushroom and said with surprise, “Your Chief takes all kinds of pets. I guess zombies are just normal creatures for her…”

Sitting beside him, Ye Qingxian also stuck his head out to look behind. “Yeah, yeah, the mushroom is her weirdest pet,” he nodded, “It’s unbelievably sly! Why does the tiger like the mushroom? It’s not coming off the mushroom’s head.”

On the highway, the speed of the vehicles had reached about one hundred and thirty kilometers per hour, which was a rather low speed for those mutated creatures.

On the way, Lin Qiao didn’t stop to hunt mutated beasts or plants, nor linger in any town. Instead, she and her friends drove all the way to East China.

…

It was almost midnight, and Yuan Tianxing and his people had been in the cave for hours. After spending hours wandering in the empty cave, they finally found the river that Yun Meng talked about.

They shone the flashlights into the water; the water was dark indeed. Yuan Tianxing sniffed at the water but didn’t sense any smell. He looked at the others and asked, “Did you sense any smell from the water?”

Li Zheng and his men shook their heads. Unlike them, Old Guo and the other zombies were all looking at the river, seemingly thinking about something. Seeing the look on their faces, Yuan Tianxing figured that they must have sensed something unusual. He moved to Old Guo’s side and said, “Mr. Guo, have you found something?”

Old Guo possessed metal power, so he wasn’t sensitive to the energy in the water. However, his nose did sense a weird scent. “I can’t feel the energy in the water, but the smell is abnormal indeed. At least I’ve never sensed such a smell back on the earth’s surface. It’s strong and pungent. Didn’t you smell it?”

While speaking, he looked at Yuan Tianxing questioningly.

As Yuan Tianxing shook his head, Old Guo turned to the others and asked them, “What about you guys?”

Li Zheng and the other humans carefully sniffed at the river, then shook their heads together and said, “No.”

“Maybe it’s because we have a better sense of smell. Lu Fang, you have water power. Did you feel anything?” He turned and said to a level-five zombie near him.

Lu Fang was the only water-powered zombies in the group. He was a chubby, middle-aged man, and one of the level-five zombies who had fully restored their memories. As Old Guo called his name, he immediately put a hand toward the river to carefully feel it. A short while later, he gave Old Guo a roar.

On hearing the roar, Old Guo furrowed his brows slightly and asked, “Are you sure?”

Lu Fang nodded.

Old Guo turned to explain to Yuan Tianxing, “He said that there’s something bad in the water. He said that no one should touch the water. As for what that thing is and what it might do, he can’t tell for sure. He just felt that it’s dangerous. If it’s even harmful to us, it must be highly dangerous for you guys too.”

“Are there any living creatures in the river?” Yuan Tianxing looked at Lu Fang and asked him.

Lu Fang shook his head; no living creatures were detected from the water.

Yuan Tianxing nodded, then turned and said to the others, “In this case, let’s bring some water back to the lab and let our scientists find out what’s in it. Lu Fang, you have water power. Use your power and try to put some water in a container.”

He asked Lu Fang to try because he wasn’t sure if the containers he had could contain the water. After all, no living creatures could exist in the water. The containers might fail to contain the water too.

Lu Fang nodded while Lei Yao, who was standing beside him, took out a bottle from his bag. He unscrewed the cap and put the bottle on the ground, then stepped backward.

Lu Fang raised a hand and crooked his finger toward the river. Following his movement, a fist-sized water drop rose from the river into the air. Next, as he pointed his finger at the bottle on the ground, the water drop drifted to the bottleneck, transformed into a thin stream, and flowed into the bottle.

After watching the black river water flow into the transparent bottle, people looked at the bottle quietly and waited instead of recklessly picking up the bottle.

A slight noise was heard from the bottle, and then people saw cracks spreading on the bottle.

Crack! Bang! Within three seconds, the bottle exploded into pieces.

The people on the scene automatically made a few steps backward, then looked at each other seriously.

The bottle had exploded and the black water flowed all over the ground. People instinctively avoided touching the water.

“I think the problem is serious!” Yuan Tianxing gave a sigh, then turned to look into the river. He wasn’t surprised.

At that moment, Old Guo took out a dagger and threw it into the air, then raised an arm to control it and put it into the water. A short while later, he slightly shook his hand, and then relaxed his body. After that, he wore a solemn look on his face like the others and raised a hand to brush his beard with his fingers.

“What’s wrong?” Yuan Tianxing noticed his reaction.

Old Guo stopped short, then continued brushing his beard. He fixed his eyes on the river while answering the question, “The connection between me and my energy in the dagger was cut off once I put the dagger into the water. I can’t feel the dagger anymore. I don’t know what’s in the water.”

Yuan Tianxing squatted by the cliff and looked at the water as he said with confusion, “But the water won’t bring itself up here. Why are those underground gorillas afraid of it so much? They even ran out of the cave… I don’t think that’s necessary… They could simply stay away from the water.”

That made sense. After hearing what he said, all the others started wondering about the same question. Was it not the river water that they were afraid of?

Yuan Tianxing glanced at the upstream of the river. He decided to go there and see if he could find out why the water became dark and dangerous.

The group of people and zombies started moving toward the upstream of the river. Thankfully, there were some paths leading to that area on both sides of the river. They needed to climb the rock in some areas though.

Climbing the rock wasn’t a problem for the zombies and superpowered human beings on the scene. They kept moving forward safely until they heard water streaming loudly. Soon, they found a waterfall. They shone the flashlights up and found that the waterfall only about six or seven meters tall. The water was flowing out of an oval-shaped dark hole. The surrounding area was very cliffy, so the edge of the hole was the only path to take.
