Lan Mu had figured out the key to this battle, but the way to win sounded simple, but he had no idea how to put it into practice.
The power of the Mangekyo was the key to Lan Mu's ability to face off against the Executor. Without this power, Lan Mu wouldn't even be able to fight the Executor.
But the Executor was also very clever. He gave Lan Mu a power that sealed off all of Lan Mu's paths.
He even misled Lan Mu into thinking that the power of the Mangekyo was useless against the Executor.
Now that he thought about it, the duplication of the Mangekyo, Lan Mu's various algorithms, and the Executor's power were basically equal.
The only thing that couldn't be duplicated on Lan Mu was the Life Orb's transformation ability.
The Executor also had the duplication ability, but he had no use for it because his goal was to kill Lan Mu.
His biggest advantage was that he could add extra information to his creation. Therefore, he created the pure black iron box to kill Lan Mu.
"This box's power is probably too many. He has given the box the ability to tamper, erase, store, duplicate, undetectable, invincible, and so on."
"Actually, the reason I was suppressed from the start wasn't because of the Executor's power, but because of this anomaly."
Lan Mu stared at the box, wishing he could get his hands on it.
The Executor definitely wouldn't use the creation algorithm. After all, he had taken away the Fantasy Figurine and the Fantasy Right Hand to stop Lan Mu from becoming a real GM.
If he could get the box, and Lan Mu could control it, he would be invincible.
If he couldn't lose, he would win.
Lan Mu thought about it. He didn't ambush the Executor because he knew the Executor wouldn't let his guard down.
"This box is an anomaly that you created, right? I can't duplicate it … What's the price? Or … there's no price? "
The Bastet Metal had no price, so Lan Mu had reason to believe that this box had no price either.
The Executor said coldly, "You finally thought of it."
"That's right. Up until now, you've only created it, and then used it to endlessly erase me. You yourself have only been waiting for a result," Lan Mu said.
The Executor said, "Oh."
Lan Mu wasn't surprised to see the Executor. Clearly, the Executor had expected that Lan Mu would be able to guess.
"It doesn't matter if I know, right? You've done everything you can. "
The Executor said, "After I entered the Omnipotent Universe, the timeline was split according to every possibility. In some timelines, we weren't playing chess. In some timelines, you were already dead. In some timelines, you still haven't figured out how to beat me."
"You're one of the Lan Mu. Whether you know the key points or not, it's not surprising."
Lan Mu narrowed his eyes and asked, "You mean after entering the Omnipotent Universe? What you're trying to say is … before I killed Bastet, you weren't in the Almighty Universe, right? "
The Executor nodded. "I will be outside the box."
"Outside … the box?" Lan Mu looked at the pure black box.
"Since I already know, why don't you let me confirm it again?" Lan Mu asked.
The Executor reached his hand out to the box and opened this mysterious anomaly.
Inside was also a pure black background filled with countless dots of light, a bit like the scenery inside the Life Sphere.
"These dots of light … are the information of the universe?" Lan Mu realized.
The Executor replied, "Yes, each dot of light is a universe. This box contains the entire Omnipotent Universe."
The box contained the Omnipotent Universe. The Executor carried the box from outside the box and entered the Omnipotent Universe inside the box.
These words sounded very incomprehensible, as if the logic of space had been messed up.
But in reality, Lan Mu had done the same thing before.
He could completely understand it. This was the same concept as when he placed the Omnipotent Universe inside a teacup in the 2D dimension.
If he had entered the Omnipotent Universe inside the teacup, the situation would have been the same as the Executor's.
This was a forced adaptation of information, as there was nothing information couldn't do.
In layman's terms, the box itself was the Omnipotent Universe. Once it was brought into the Omnipotent Universe, it was the same as a Creator's control panel … falling into the mortal realm.
"This is probably an anomaly that you've had since a long time ago, right? You used it to manage the Omnipotent Universe, but it wasn't necessarily prepared for me … "Lan Mu said.
The Executor replied, "It was prepared for you."
Lan Mu didn't want to be so narcissistic, but the Executor insisted on it.
The Executor continued, "Without you, everything would have been natural and orderly. It would have been enough. There would have been no management, no need for deliberate planning. "
Lan Mu rubbed his nose. Nature didn't need to be managed in the first place, it was as it was, there was no such thing as management.
However, that was an ideal universe, while in reality, it was an abnormal overflow of information.
Lan Mu thought for a bit, then asked, "What are the conditions for using it?"
The Executor replied, "Within the Omnipotent Universe, as long as I want to, I can use it."
Lan Mu asked, "Can anyone else do the same?"
The Executor shook his head and tossed the box into Lan Mu's arms.
This made Lan Mu's blood run cold. If he had taken it himself, he would have been very happy, but the Executor had given it to him. This meant that the Executor was very confident in himself.
Sure enough, Lan Mu couldn't find any information about the box. The box had been given the same property: other than its owner, no one else could see it.
Other than that, the box must have been set to not be used by anyone other than the Executor. All of its functions were for the Executor.
Lan Mu held the box, but that was all he could do.
As long as he was within the Omnipotent Universe, no matter how far away the Executor was from the box, he could use the box's abilities.
"No, you're misleading me! If that's the case, why didn't you let me take it? "Lan Mu asked.
The Executor said, "I just didn't want you to know the key to victory. Only if you knew how to win would you have a chance of beating me."
Lan Mu understood. He had only taken a small step toward victory.
If he had taken the box, he would have been able to use the fact that the box contained the Omnipotent Universe to deduce that the Executor had only been using the power of containment. With Lan Mu's intelligence, he would have been able to figure out all the other suspicious points.
Of course, he'd chosen to play chess. Then, he'd given Qing Feng the ability to think, no matter how big or small, to figure it out.
After using the gentle method to figure it out, the Executor had no need to guard the box. He'd only made it so that Lan Mu wouldn't even think about it.
His actions would have led to two possibilities. One was that Lan Mu didn't know how to win. The other was that he'd figured it out.
If he didn't know how to win, he'd have tried all sorts of useless methods and died.
The other possibility would have led to even more possibilities. For example, taking the box. For example, Lan Mu had let Qing Feng figure it out.
Taking the box would have led to two possibilities: getting it or not getting it.
If he couldn't get it, he'd be even more confused.
And if he could get it, there would be at least two possibilities: getting it and not getting it.
All this time, the Executor, or 001, had been doing whatever he wanted. For example, when he'd asked Lan Mu to sign the contract, it didn't matter if Lan Mu signed it or not.
"And this is just the possibility of having the same past as me … My life is so long, and there are so many forks in the road. There are so many Lan Mu's who are different from me … Some of them will eventually meet the Executor due to other events and events, and then there will be other duels.
"If I fail, I really don't know how long it'll take for that Lan Mu's existence to appear."
Now, after taking that small step, Lan Mu was once again at a stalemate.
"What else can I rely on? With the creation algorithm …" Lan Mu whispered.
The Executor didn't say anything.
Lan Mu looked at him and said, "You should know what I have to do to beat you, right?"
"Yes."
Lan Mu's eyes narrowed. He said to himself, "He actually knows how I can beat him …"
