277: It's really undeveloped.

Chapter 277: It Really Is Undeveloped

Nanasheng and the others had no choice but to wait in place.

Above the Forbidden Sea.

Lu Ran and Si Luoluo, one black and one white, flew rapidly.

Si Luoluo’s speed was much faster than Lu Ran’s, but she always maintained the same speed as Lu Ran.

Soon.

They arrived at their destination.

However, the scene before Lu Ran made him somewhat startled.

“This is it,” Si Luoluo said thoughtfully.

And her expression became incredibly solemn.

Even if Lu Ran was a fool, he could see the abnormality now.

The sea surface below had not a single ripple!

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

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

A massive circular area, without a single wave, the water surface was as smooth as a mirror!

The sea outside the circular area, however, was shimmering with light, just like other places.

This scene looked very strange.

It was as if the sea surface of this circular area was a devouring abyss.

Although there was not a single movement, it made one feel incredibly suppressed.

“This is unscientific, damn it,” Lu Ran muttered.

Then he moved closer.

Si Luoluo followed closely behind.

Lu Ran had originally thought that there must be a layer of something like transparent glass covering this area, right?

Otherwise, this would be too unscientific!

But after getting closer.

Lu Ran extended one foot and gently tapped the water surface.

But there was no obstruction!

Lu Ran’s toes easily penetrated the sea surface!

Moreover, there was also a feeling of a foot being extended into the water.

But…

Still not a single ripple appeared!

This was too eerie!

Although Lu Ran was a novice professional, his nearly month-long experience had made him well-informed, accustomed to all sorts of bizarre monsters, fantastical skills, and so on.

Only this scene before him made him feel a chill down his spine.

Lu Ran didn’t believe in evil.

He swiped his single foot through the water.

But the strange thing was that although there was no resistance, he could not stir the water surface to produce even a single ripple!

It was like…

It was as if a BUG had appeared in this world!

The seawater in this area seemed to lack the specific characteristics of all things in the world that it should possess!

“There’s indeed something strange,” Lu Ran said thoughtfully.

After speaking.

Lu Ran looked at Si Luoluo and asked, “What’s the situation with that thing now?”

Si Luoluo said, “It has already noticed you.”

Pfft~

This sudden remark made all the hairs on Lu Ran’s body stand on end.

He looked down at the water surface.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t see anything.

But it was precisely because of this unknown, the indiscernible darkness in the depths of the profound seawater, that it appeared exceptionally terrifying!

Moreover.

Because the water surface in this area had no waves, the visibility was actually clearer.

Unfortunately, due to the depth of the Forbidden Sea, Lu Ran could never clearly see what was in the deep water.

“Forget it, let’s go down and take a look,” Lu Ran said.

But before entering the water.

Lu Ran, just to be safe.

Still said to Si Luoluo, “Listen to me, if there’s any unexpected situation later, you run away immediately without any hesitation, understand? I can’t die!”

Normally, Lu Ran would not worry about Si Luoluo.

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

But now.

The thing in the deep water was of a higher level than Si Luoluo!

Upon hearing this.

Si Luoluo nodded earnestly, her small face now full of seriousness and solemnity.

Lu Ran breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her agree.

Then, with a splash~

Both of them fell into the water together.

There was no need to discern direction; they swam directly towards the deep sea below.

Lu Ran specifically looked around.

There was nothing in the surrounding sea area.

Besides the cold seawater, there were no sea monsters, nor any aquatic creatures, as if it were a dead, empty aquarium.

It was a very strange feeling.

It was as if an immortal had specially created a large fish tank in these deep waters, placing strange items he had collected inside.

And as it currently appeared.

That mysterious creature, the one related to the Scale Demon race, was probably that strange item.

As Lu Ran and Si Luoluo continuously dived into the deep sea.

The temperature of the surrounding seawater rapidly dropped.

But it wasn't just low temperature; it was a chill, penetrating to the bone!

Lu Ran was almost frozen stiff.

Si Luoluo, on the other hand, was fine.

As a dark-element creature, Si Luoluo had a unique advantage in adapting to this place.

Lu Ran gritted his teeth.

Watching the surrounding light gradually darken, he felt uncertain.

Although he was invincible and couldn't die, this eerie environment and strange phenomena made Lu Ran feel a chill down his spine.

Not long after.

“I see it!” Si Luoluo suddenly exclaimed.

Lu Ran hadn't yet figured out how Si Luoluo could make a sound underwater.

He instinctively looked down.

Through the blur, Lu Ran also saw it.

A giant was hovering near the seabed, curled up.

Calling it a giant wasn't an exaggeration; it was probably only about a dozen meters tall?

It definitely seemed to be related to the Scale Demon race.

Its body was also covered in scales, and they were a deep purple color.

This was truly not obvious in the dark seawater.

Fortunately, it was large enough to be discernible.

At this moment.

The giant was curled up, maintaining a strange posture, like an embryo in a mother’s womb.

Its head was buried in its chest.

It was clearly female.

Her figure was excellent, very explosive, but because she was too large, she lacked attraction.

However, if she were normal human size, this figure would definitely be amazing.

Lu Ran was somewhat uncertain.

He cautiously approached Si Luoluo.

Suddenly!

That thing moved.

Its body did not unfurl, but its head lifted from its chest and looked at Lu Ran.

With a simple movement, Lu Ran could clearly feel hostility, or rather, the monster's hatred.

It was off the charts!

She really knows it’s me!

Lu Ran instantly judged that this thing’s hatred for him stemmed from his killing of Scale Demons in the Luan Region!

But the other party did not attack Lu Ran.

Despite the overwhelming hatred, it merely stared at Lu Ran, with no emotional fluctuations on its face.

It felt more like a puppet.

And an unfinished puppet at that, with only a core drive but an incomplete body.

Only its head could turn, but it couldn't express its thoughts or control its body.

Lu Ran watched curiously.

After repeatedly confirming that this thing indeed wouldn’t attack.

He then remembered to check its information.

But the result was.

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

【Level: (“file.encoding“, “ISO-8859-1“)】

Huh?

Lu Ran’s eyes widened. What the heck!

Si Luoluo also seemed to notice something unusual.

She asked in confusion, “What is this? Why is the name like this, and I can’t see the level or specific attributes?”

Lu Ran frowned deeply.

He said, “Code, some kind of underlying code, but I don’t understand it. This… this really is digitized!”

And it seemed.

This thing wasn't completely finished?

Still in a semi-developed state?

What was going on?
