End of Days Game: I'm the Only One Who Can See the Hidden Cues - Chapter 287

Chapter 287: Chapter 287: Secrets Within the High-Dimensional Data
Ritchie, of course, was completely obedient to Jeremy’s commands.

Since Jeremy had asserted the necessity of utterly destroying the Mechanical Rampage Beast’s data core, Ritchie showed no hesitation whatsoever.

Ritchie effortlessly obliterated the data core of the Mechanical Rampage Beast.

As the data core was dismantled, High-Dimensional Data began to emanate from within it.

Although Jeremy had yet to fully recover, he struggled to extract a data storage device from his pocket.

Even though he had already destroyed one storage device, several others remained in his possession.

Before entering the Tower of Exile, Jeremy had been aware that their current adversary was closely linked to the White Tower, which is why he had deliberately brought multiple data storage devices.

Upon witnessing the complete destruction of the Mechanical Rampage Beast’s data core, Jeremy finally let out a sigh of relief. He managed to sit up with great effort and smiled at Ritchie, saying,

“Not only have we successfully triumphed over a formidable foe, but I have also gathered a wealth of intelligence from the High-Dimensional Data.”

Upon hearing Jeremy’s words, Ritchie quickly approached him.

“What kind of intelligence have you gathered? Do you know what our next course of action should be?”

Jeremy nodded affirmatively.

“During the process of absorbing High-Dimensional Data, I witnessed the emergence of the White Tower. I have finally come to understand why it harbors such profound fear of us.”

Jeremy’s statement sparked immense curiosity within Ritchie.

He leaned in closer to Jeremy.

“Make sure to keep your voice down, I worry that the White Tower might overhear any mention of its weaknesses. It could very well adapt immediately to mitigate those vulnerabilities.”

Ritchie remained as cautious as ever.

After hearing Ritchie’s concern, Jeremy chuckled lightly.

“No matter how it attempts to adjust, it cannot erase its weaknesses. Before its formation is complete, it is, in fact, quite susceptible to being destroyed by a substantial influx of High-Dimensional Data.

We simply need to gather enough High-Dimensional Data, and once we encounter the embryo of the White Tower, we can proceed to obliterate it directly.

Once this series of actions is executed, the true White Tower within the Tower of Exile will also suffer a significant blow. This will enable our efforts to achieve success with relative ease.”

After listening to Jeremy’s words, Ritchie finally let out a sigh of relief.

“In that case, let’s take action swiftly! I have a nagging feeling that the longer we delay, the greater the dangers we will encounter.”

As Ritchie spoke, he scanned the surroundings intently.

Although they had triumphed over the Mechanical Rampage Beast and Jeremy had completely obliterated the fragments of The Deluge of Data,

Ritchie still sensed the presence of other enemies lurking nearby.

Jeremy did not contest Ritchie’s concerns.

He merely spoke weakly, “I certainly wish to act quickly, but my injuries have not yet fully healed. I hope to rest a while longer.

You can keep an eye on our surroundings while I recuperate. If any enemies appear, use your strength to defeat them. I will not be able to assist you for a short while.”

What Jeremy had just stated was indeed the truth.

Though he had successfully destroyed the Mechanical Rampage Beast through his courage and cunning, he had sustained serious injuries in the process.

The overwhelming influx of High-Dimensional Data had also caused some alterations in Jeremy’s consciousness.

Ritchie nodded in response.

“Rest assured. While I may not be able to defeat all foes, I can certainly buy us some time. I will wait until you are fully recovered.”

With that declaration, Ritchie began to vigilantly observe the surroundings.

Jeremy closed his eyes, summoning the strength within his body to restore his condition.

In truth, Jeremy had not disclosed all of the intelligence he possessed to Ritchie.

The method Jeremy spoke of to defeat the White Tower was indeed valid, but it was a highly simplified version.

The intelligence Jeremy had gleaned from the High-Dimensional Data was extensive.

In addition to some mundane information, he had uncovered a crucial secret.

That is to say, High-Dimensional Data was not actually created by the White Tower. All of the High-Dimensional Data had emerged from ordinary data, elevated by the powers held by the Fool.

This revelation implied that the High-Dimensional Data manipulated by the White Tower could not wield its full potential.

The true entity capable of unleashing the full potential of High-Dimensional Data is the Fool.

In addition to this secret, the hints provided by the Eye of Omniscience greatly troubled Jeremy.

The Eye of Omniscience indicated that when High-Dimensional Data accumulates to a certain extent, it can interfere with time and space.

This implies that the White Tower could potentially utilize a vast amount of High-Dimensional Data to counteract Jeremy’s innate talent, the King of Time and Space.

Such a scenario could place Jeremy in a precarious situation during critical battles.

Jeremy’s desire to rest was not only to recover his own condition but also to devise a strategy to confront the White Tower’s overwhelming High-Dimensional Data during this time.

While Jeremy was deep in thought, Ritchie remained vigilant, continuously observing the surroundings.

Before long, he discovered that the previously encountered shadows with independent consciousness still lingered around them.

These shadows, as Jeremy had mentioned, did not appear to have any intentions of launching an attack.

Ritchie felt a slight unease regarding the presence of these shadows.

Seizing an opportunity, he directly addressed the shadows, “Why do you choose to remain near Jeremy and me? Do you intend to launch an attack on us, or are you looking to convey something?”

In response to Ritchie’s inquiry, the multitude of shadows remained silent.

Moreover, they seemed to take a step back.

“What does this mean? Jeremy and I have never attacked you. Furthermore, it appears you do not wish to assail us, so why not engage in a dialogue?”

Throughout this endeavor, Ritchie had learned a great deal from Jeremy.

Had it been before, he would have undoubtedly attacked the shadows without hesitation.

To Ritchie, these sentient shadows were clearly monsters.

When confronting monsters, Ritchie felt it was imperative to show no mercy.

However, during his collaboration with Jeremy, Ritchie had suddenly realized that Jeremy was quite willing to cooperate with certain monsters.

Indeed, Jeremy had derived considerable benefits from these collaborations.

Thus, Ritchie hoped to leverage a similar approach to glean additional information.

After Ritchie had inquired twice, at last, one of the shadows drifted closer to him.

“We indeed have much to share with you. However, you may not necessarily believe any of our words.”

Upon hearing this, a faint smile finally appeared on Ritchie’s face.

“If you have something to say, then please speak it outright. We will evaluate the truthfulness of your claims. We will certainly not dismiss everything you say without consideration.”

Ritchie’s tone was exceedingly gentle when he expressed these words.

He did not wish for the shadows to feel as though he was attempting to deceive them.

The shadows gathered closely together, seemingly engaged in discussion.

After deliberating for a while, one of the shadows drifted toward Ritchie.

“You cannot proceed downward like you did beneath the Tower of Exile any longer. You are drawing ever closer to the embryo of the malevolent deity. Furthermore, you cannot reach the area where the embryo resides through such means.”

One shadow uttered a statement that left Ritchie utterly astonished.

With a tone tinged with hesitation, Ritchie inquired,

“This contradicts the information we received from the Cyclops. The Cyclops informed us that the White Tower is located at the very bottom of the Tower of Exile. If we wish to reach the lowest level of the Tower of Exile, we can only continue descending.”

“The Cyclops’s information is accurate, the White Tower is indeed situated at the lowest level of the Tower of Exile. However, what I am saying is that you will not be able to reach the bottom of the Tower of Exile by simply descending further.

The White Tower has established a series of spatial traps in the lowest few layers of the Tower of Exile. The moment you enter areas with these spatial traps, you will become utterly lost.

Even if you and your companions possess the ability to manipulate space, you will find it impossible to successfully navigate towards the area where the White Tower is located due to the overwhelming interference from the High-Dimensional Data.”

The shadow engaging with Ritchie provided a straightforward explanation.

After absorbing this information, Ritchie found himself at a loss for how to respond decisively.

He felt that the shadows’ assertions certainly held some merit.

However, he believed it was imperative to share this intelligence with Jeremy.

Ritchie was convinced that only Jeremy could accurately discern the veracity of this information.

“I am unable to determine the truthfulness of what you have said. Therefore, I will call my companion over as quickly as possible, my companion will discuss this matter with you in detail.”

After speaking these words, Ritchie swiftly returned to his original position.

The shadows remained clustered in their previous spot, unwilling to disperse, for they genuinely wished to collaborate with Ritchie and Jeremy.

The White Tower was also an adversary to the shadows.
