Nanami and the others were helpless and could only wait in place.

Above the Forbidden Sea.

Lu Ran and Sillor, one black and one white, flew swiftly.

Sillor's speed was much faster than Lu Ran, but she always maintained the same speed as him.

Soon.

They arrived at their destination.

However, the scene before them left Lu Ran slightly stunned.

"This is the place." Sillor contemplated as she spoke.

And her expression became incredibly grave.

Even a fool like Lu Ran could see something unusual now.

The sea surface below had not a single ripple!

This was not a metaphor; there really was not a single ripple!

It was as if a giant mirror covered the sea surface.

An enormous circular area, with not the slightest wave, the water surface was as smooth as a mirror!

Outside this circular area, the sea was just like other places, with waves rippling.

This scene looked extremely eerie.

As if the circular sea surface was a deep abyss waiting to devour.

Though without the slightest movement, it felt overwhelmingly oppressive.

"This is unscientific," Lu Ran muttered to himself.

Then he moved a bit closer.

Sillor followed closely behind.

Lu Ran initially thought there might be something like a transparent glass covering this area?

Otherwise, it just wouldn't make sense!

But upon approaching.

Lu Ran extended a foot to lightly tap the water surface.

Encountered no obstacle!

His toe easily pierced the sea surface!

And it felt like his foot was immersed in water.

Yet…

There was still not the slightest ripple!

This was too bizarre!

Although Lu Ran was a novice Professional, in the nearly one month of experiences, he had seen a lot; strange monsters, bizarre skills, he had grown accustomed to them all.

Only this scene before him made him feel a chill in his heart.

Not believing this, Lu Ran.

Moved his foot through the water.

But strangely, although there was no resistance, he couldn't stir the surface to create even the slightest ripple!

It's like…

It's like there's a bug in this world!

The sea in this area lacked its inherent worldly characteristics!

"There is indeed something strange," Lu Ran pondered aloud.

After speaking.

Lu Ran turned to Sillor and asked, "What's the situation with that thing now?"

Sillor said, "It has already noticed you."

Pfft~

That sudden remark made Lu Ran's hair stand on end.

He looked down at the water surface.

Unfortunately, he couldn't see anything.

Yet it was precisely this unknown, the unfathomable darkness in the deep water, that seemed exceptionally terrifying!

Moreover.

Since there weren't any waves on this water surface, it actually made it slightly easier to see through.

But the depth of the Forbidden Sea, Lu Ran could never quite make out what lay in the deep waters.

"Forget it, let's go down and have a look," Lu Ran suggested.

But before entering the water.

For safety's sake.

Lu Ran still told Sillor, "Listen to me, if anything unexpected happens, you escape immediately, without hesitation, got it? I can't die!"

Normally, Lu Ran wasn't worried about Sillor.

After all, she was a level 100 Dark Elf Queen.

But now.

The entity in the deep waters had a level even surpassing Sillor's!

Upon hearing this.

Sillor nodded earnestly, her small face filled with seriousness and gravity.

Seeing her agree, Lu Ran was relieved.

Then, splash~

The two plunged into the water together.

No need to determine direction, they swam straight down into the deep sea.

Lu Ran took a good look around.

In these surrounding waters, there was nothing.

Besides the cold seawater, not a single sea monster, not any aquatic creatures, it was like a dead, empty aquarium.

It was an odd sensation.

As if an Immortal had deliberately created a large fish tank in the deep waters here, placing the strange things they collected inside.

And thus far.

The mysterious creature, as well as the mysterious creature related to the Scale Demon clan, was probably that bizarre thing.

As Lu Ran and Sillor continued to dive deeper.

The surrounding seawater's temperature dropped rapidly.

But it seemed like it wasn't just cold but a chill that cut to the bone!

Lu Ran was almost frozen stiff.

In contrast, Sillor had no issues.

As a creature of the Dark Series, Sillor had a natural adaptability to this place.

Lu Ran clenched his teeth.

Watching the surrounding light gradually dim, he felt uncertain.

Though invincible and unable to die, the eerie environment and bizarre phenomena made Lu Ran uneasy.

Soon enough.

"I see it!" Sillor suddenly exclaimed.

Lu Ran was still unsure how Sillor managed to vocalize underwater.

Instinctively, he looked down.

In the dimness, he also saw it.

A giant, near the seabed, suspending in water, body curled up.

Calling it a giant wasn't quite accurate; it was maybe just over ten meters tall?

Judging from its appearance, it certainly had a connection with the Scale Demon clan.

Its body was covered in scales, deep purple ones at that.

In the dark seawater, they were truly hard to notice.

Luckily, it was big enough to distinguish.

At that moment.

The giant was curling its body, maintaining an odd posture like an embryo in a womb.

Head buried in the chest.

It was clearly female.

With quite an impressive figure, but being so large made it lose its allure.

However, if it were human-sized, that figure would definitely be impressive.

Lu Ran found it hard to grasp.

Cautiously approached with Sillor.

Suddenly!

It moved.

Didn't unfurl, but lifted its head from its chest to look at Lu Ran.

That simple movement gave Lu Ran a clear sense of hostility, or rather the monster's hatred value towards him.

Skyrocketing!

Truly, it knew it was me!

Lu Ran quickly deduced that this entity's hatred value toward him stemmed from his slaying Scale Demons in the Chaotic Domain!

Yet the creature didn't attack Lu Ran.

Despite immense hatred, it merely stared at Lu Ran, without a flicker of expression.

The feeling was more akin to a puppet.

Moreover, an unfinished puppet, with only its core functioning, but the body incomplete.

Only its head could move, unable to express thoughts or control its body.

Curious, Lu Ran observed.

After confirming multiple times that it indeed wouldn't attack.

He then thought to check its information.

But the result.

[Type: byte[2]=-50 hex string = ffffffce]

[Level: ("file.encoding", "ISO-8859-1")]

Huh?

Lu Ran's eyes widened, what the hell!

Sillor seemed to notice something odd too.

She asked in confusion, "What is this? Why does it have this name, and its level isn't visible, nor can its attributes be specifically viewed."

Lu Ran frowned.

Said, "Code, it's some sort of underlying code, but I can't understand it, this… this is really digitalization!"

Moreover, it seems.

This thing isn't completely finished?

It's still in a semi-development state?

What in the world is this?
