Immediately after, Fang Jintang saw that the time was almost up, and most of the zombies had already stepped onto the traps. He promptly infused a ray of spirit light, and the next moment, the layer that served as a disguise for the 'ground' instantly reverted to the appearance of a swamp. The zombies standing on it, without exception, all fell in.
Most of these zombies were Basic-level Zombies, with a few Level 1 Zombies among them. They had no comparable human intelligence to speak of, driven purely by their instinct to feed. They didn't think, nor did they realize that after falling into the swamp, they should stay as still as possible to avoid sinking further.
In fact, as soon as the zombies fell into the swamp, they struggled fiercely. But the more they struggled, the deeper they sank, until they were hopelessly mired.
