As the pair walked through the never-ending hall of the mall, the water kept rising. Eventually, the pair found a boat lying atop one of the stairs leading to the second floor. The pair quickly took it and boarded it before continuing. The boat was left by the last group of people who had traversed throughout the level. The boat was made of aluminum that although doesn't rust easily like iron or steel, it still looked very old and dirty.
As the boat was made to fit more people, both Pops and Vain had plenty of room to move around. Yet the pair didn't move much in the boat and only focused on making the boat go forward. There wasn't any motor making pair row manually with two metal paddles that were already in the boat.
Although they couldn't feel the water rising anymore in the boat, they could easily tell that it was happening. It was hard to tell if the roof moving closer, but any archway that they needed to pass under was getting closer.
