600: See who has the highest authority

Chapter 600: Let’s See Whose Authority Is Highest

Upon hearing that, Nanasheng said, “The second scenario is very simple. We already know that this place has been modified, or most likely has been modified. Since it has been modified, why can’t the BOSS’s mechanism be modified?”

Lu Ran was startled, looking at Nanasheng in surprise.

But surprisingly, there was indeed a possibility!

So, Lu Ran asked, “You mean the BOSS’s trigger mechanism has been modified? It’s not triggered this way? It’s not triggered by killing all the small monsters here?”

But to his surprise, Nanasheng shook her head.

She said, “That’s not necessarily true. Perhaps only the BOSS’s position after being triggered has been modified. I’m certainly not clear on the specifics, but there’s such a possibility, and…”

At this point, Nanasheng paused.

Then she continued, “Moreover, if someone really made such complex modifications here, don’t you think it’s strange? Don’t you think it’s boring? Unless he wants to do something here, for example…”

Lu Ran suddenly had an epiphany.

His eyes lit up as he looked at Nanasheng and said, “For example, he wants to trap someone here!”

Nanasheng shrugged and said, “That’s what I mean. So, what do we do now?”

“Search. We must turn this entire dark river upside down and find something,” Lu Ran said.

Especially since they had already guessed that someone had modified this place.

They absolutely couldn’t back down or give up halfway now.

They had to find some clues and information!

Thinking of this, Lu Ran took Nanasheng and began searching the entire dark river, both of them directly sinking to the bottom.

Because this place was a bit strange, Lu Ran didn’t dare to let Nanasheng act alone.

Even with the premise that Lu Ran could revive Nanasheng at any time, Lu Ran didn’t dare to take the risk.

Because this place was truly too strange.

If there were people who could modify things here, and Nanasheng really died, and Lu Ran couldn’t revive Nanasheng for some reason, then Lu Ran would cry.

As of today, although Nanasheng was from Sakura, in Lu Ran’s heart, she was already a very good friend of Lu Ran’s, even surpassing a friend.

Lu Ran would absolutely not allow Nanasheng to encounter any accidents.

Therefore, when Nanasheng didn’t consider this point and suggested splitting up with Lu Ran to search for faster efficiency, Lu Ran immediately refused her.

“Why? You can revive me anyway. Even if I encounter some problem and die here, you can revive me at any time,” Nanasheng asked curiously.

“But what if an accident happens? You also know that this place has been modified. If there are some special, pre-set rules that even surpass my highest authority, and I can’t revive you, what then? I will never allow such a thing to happen. I won’t let you be in any danger,” Lu Ran said without thinking.

Nanasheng was visibly stunned, looking at Lu Ran in surprise.

Then Lu Ran continued, “So, we’ll just honestly keep searching. Anyway, there are only two of us. Even if we split up, how much more efficient can it be? Taking risks is not worth it. I still say the same thing: I won’t let anything happen to you, because if I can’t revive you after your accidental death, I’ll collapse.”

Nanasheng’s eyes began to flicker.

She seemed to have something to say, but the words caught in her throat, and she still nodded, saying, “I understand, we won’t separate.”

As she spoke, the look in her eyes as she gazed at Lu Ran had become incredibly gentle.

Then, the two of them went together and began searching the riverbed.

Unexpectedly, they really found something different!

In a certain depression at the bottom of the river, Lu Ran discovered a strange place.

This seemed to be a man-made underground passage.

But it wasn’t sealed.

At the entrance, some data streams were constantly running.

Although this was a Datafication World, the presentation of data was still visual.

What was going on?

How could there be direct data streams?

Something abnormal must be evil! Lu Ran and Nanasheng exchanged glances, immediately understanding each other’s thoughts.

Something was wrong here!

“This must be it. Data streams have even appeared here,” Lu Ran said with emotion.

“Can you tell what these data streams do?” Nanasheng asked.

Lu Ran nodded.

Although he himself was completely ignorant of data streams, because he was now the highest authority in the Datafication World, he could directly call upon data to ascertain the function of these data streams.

This process was very simple.

Basically, Lu Ran just stared at the data streams.

Then he said with wide eyes, “A restriction! It’s a restriction!”

Oh?

Nanasheng was surprised, somewhat curious, what was a restriction?

Seemingly sensing Nanasheng’s confusion, Lu Ran immediately explained, “It’s similar to a seal. You can imagine this thing is a seal!”

A seal!

Nanasheng’s eyes also lit up. Of course, she knew what a seal was!

The existence of a seal, even if understood literally, was very clear!

It was for sealing and control, or to put it bluntly, to trap something, a certain place, or even a certain unit!

This perfectly matched the guy Lu Ran was looking for!

“No way, are we this lucky? We found it so quickly?” Lu Ran said in surprise.

But then, the problem arose.

“These data streams originate from another authority. Can you remove them?” Nanasheng asked.

Because since it involved authority, it meant that there was a priority between authorities.

If the other party’s authority was higher than Lu Ran’s, then Lu Ran couldn’t do anything!

Conversely, if the other party’s authority was lower than Lu Ran’s, then Lu Ran could directly remove the seal here with a single thought!

Thinking of this, Lu Ran immediately nodded and said, “I’ll try, but there shouldn’t be any problem. You know, I am now the highest authority in this world, this Datafication World. Even if the other party can modify data, they shouldn’t be able to bypass my authority or be above my authority.”

After speaking, Lu Ran began to try.

But what was the result?

The reality was a slap in the face.

Lu Ran found that he actually couldn’t undo these seals, couldn’t control these data streams, and couldn’t intervene in their authority!

This meant that the other party’s authority was above Lu Ran’s!

Lu Ran’s hair instantly stood on end!

He didn’t believe it and continued to try.

And these actions also seemed to cause a great disturbance.

Behind the data streams, deep within the passage, a figure slowly opened its eyes.
