Chapter 598: Has It Been Modified?

This isn't considered modifying data.

Lu Ran was merely accessing the data of this relic dungeon to check the specific path, ensuring he wouldn't waste any more time.

If this wasn't the right path and he took a wrong turn, wasting more time, that would be truly frustrating.

Lu Ran still didn't dare to easily modify data.

"This is definitely it. I've checked the data for this relic dungeon, and the bottom of this underground river is the end of this dungeon. The BOSS is down there," Lu Ran said.

Of course.

Besides the BOSS, there were also some small monsters and elites, all of them water-elemental.

Although Lu Ran didn't say it,

Nanasheng had already guessed.

She said to Lu Ran, "There must be a lot of small monsters too. Such relic dungeons aren't popular with Professional, because underwater there's a suffocation debuff, so you can't stay underwater for long, and visibility is poor. Plus, water-elemental monsters are agile, so few Professional are willing to tackle such relic dungeons."

Lu Ran nodded.

Although Lu Ran hadn't experienced that discomfort, he had been to the deep sea when he was in the Forbidden Sea.

He knew how uncomfortable it was for normal Professional.

"Let's go, let's go down," Lu Ran nodded and said.

Then, he and Nanasheng exchanged glances, and both jumped straight down.

As Lu Ran had envisioned, after entering the water, Lu Ran immediately cleared their suffocation debuff. Although both of them were still breathing, they couldn't inhale water.

Aside from feeling that they were indeed in the water and their bodies were floating, everything else was no different from being on land.

This strange sensation greatly surprised Nanasheng, and she couldn't help but look around.

Upon seeing this, Nanasheng's scalp tingled!

Although she had already guessed there would be many small monsters down here, she hadn't expected so many!

The bottom of the underground river was very wide, and the current was extremely swift, but Lu Ran firmly controlled their bodies in place, preventing them from being swept away.

Around the cliffs of the underground river,

various small monsters were densely packed, and their attack range or trigger range was very large!

Extremely large!

When they first entered the water, almost all the small monsters simultaneously looked in their direction, glaring menacingly. Lu Ran felt for the first time what it meant to be glared at menacingly!

It felt like thorns in his back!

"Even though we're invincible, being stared at by so many small monsters really makes my scalp tingle," Lu Ran muttered.

"Why aren't they attacking? Did you control them?" Nanasheng looked around curiously and asked.

"No, I didn't. I haven't modified any mechanisms here, because controlling these small monsters might affect the upcoming BOSS battle. I wouldn't do such a foolish thing," Lu Ran said.

Nanasheng breathed a sigh of relief.

She said, "That's good. Then let's clear these small monsters using the normal method."

Lu Ran nodded.

He said, "According to the data, if we continue downwards, we'll trigger all the small monsters here at the same time. It's just a bit strange; with such a large range and so many small monsters, if a normal Professional came down here and triggered them, wouldn't they die without a burial place?"

Lu Ran couldn't understand.

Because even though Lu Ran wasn't afraid, if he put himself in their shoes,

if it were other Professional, this would simply be a dead end!

Forget about a single Professional soloing it.

Even a small team would probably be completely wiped out here.

Hearing this,

Nanasheng also frowned and said, "It is a bit strange. If all the small monsters here are truly triggered in a large batch, coupled with the suffocation debuff and the inflexibility in the water, trying to deal with the incredibly agile water-elemental monsters here, it really is a bit odd, as if..."

"As if this relic dungeon wasn't designed to allow anyone to pass. Any Professional who comes here and triggers the small monsters is meant to die!" Lu Ran said in a deep voice, narrowing his eyes slightly.

Nanasheng nodded.

But after exchanging glances with Lu Ran, their eyes suddenly lit up.

Because in that instant, both of them suddenly realized what the other was thinking.

How could a normal relic dungeon be designed in such a way that no Professional could pass?

A dungeon that guarantees death seems to not exist in the current Datafication World!

Therefore,

since this place is so strange, does that mean this relic dungeon is different from other relic dungeons?

"It's possible it's already been modified!" Lu Ran said, his scalp tingling.

Because there truly was this possibility.

And if someone really had modified this place,

then to a large extent, it would be related to that guy whose name was garbled!

In the current Datafication World, Lu Ran has the highest authority, but the existence of other beings who can modify data is inherently very uncomfortable.

"Most likely, it wasn't modified by that trapped guy. If he truly had the ability and authority to modify data, how could he be trapped?" Lu Ran muttered.

But his heart was still not at ease.

Because even if it wasn't the guy whose name was garbled who modified the data, there was still another entity that could modify data.

Lu Ran wasn't even sure if that thing that could modify data was human!

In Lu Ran's speculation,

if the guy whose name was garbled was truly trapped, then it was another entity that modified the data to bind him.

This made Lu Ran feel helpless for a while.

Lu Ran hadn't even dealt with the guy whose name was garbled yet, hadn't found him, and now, another unknown entity had appeared.

"Damn it, this is really troublesome. Let's keep looking. If that guy is really here, then I'll drag him out and figure out what's going on. If he's not here, then I don't care anymore. If he's trapped, then he's trapped. I'm too lazy to bother with them," Lu Ran grumbled.

Of course.

That's what he said, but he was still very depressed inside.

After all, he was curious.

After all, that was a thorn in Lu Ran's heart!

Nanasheng shrugged helplessly and said, "Let's continue. Let's figure out what's going on here first."

It could only be like this.

Lu Ran took a deep breath, to prevent other accidents from happening.

After all, this relic dungeon might have been modified, and Lu Ran didn't know if his authority could intervene.

So,

he directly took Nanasheng's small hand, and the two of them sank directly to the bottom of the river.

Just as Lu Ran had said,

when they reached a certain position,

suddenly!

All the small monsters were triggered almost at the same time!

The densely packed small monsters seemed to have been waiting for this moment.

Like soldiers who had heard the assembly call, they swarmed towards Lu Ran!

This scene was quite spectacular.

The densely packed small monsters formed a torrent at the bottom of the river, rushing forward!

They were everywhere!

Lu Ran glanced around and grumbled, "Damn it, if a normal Professional came in here, they'd be dead for sure!"

But at the same time,

Lu Ran suddenly felt that these small monsters... looked somewhat familiar?
