I’ll leave some time to organize the plot outline, and continue to add updates for the alliance leader tomorrow.)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Year 2098.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Humanity enters the pseudo-community era.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Human technology, which had been stagnant for a hundred years, suddenly ushered in another explosion after 2080. In less than twenty years, humanity has begun to colonize the moon and look forward to Mars!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But all this is just the shadow outside the curtain approaching.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu, the three of them, one bird, and one dog appeared beside a modern highway, and there were a few vehicles driving on the highway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Main Brain’s voice sounded in the minds of the three of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was unprecedented. Liu Zhen and Liang Min didn't know, but how could Wu Pifu not know? The Main Brain had never introduced the Dream World they were in like this before; everything inside required them to explore for themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu was not sure now whether this was the ability after the Main Brain’s upgrade, or if this Dream World was very special, and Chu Minghao had specially created a detailed explanation?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But no matter what, this was always a good thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mission issued.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Maintain the existence of the curtain, do not let the humans of this world know the terrifying truth outside the curtain. The more they know, the harder it will be for this world to be redeemed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Set the curtain damage level. Once the curtain damage level reaches 100%, this world will be irreversibly polluted, resulting in an apocalyptic scene.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Set the curtain maintenance area for maintenance workers in each zone, and divide it broadly according to the number and strength of maintenance workers in that zone.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mission leader Chu Minghao will perform redemption operations. Redemption level is set. When the redemption level reaches 100%, the emergency mission is achieved, and the world is redeemed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A pitch-black percentage appeared on the retinas of the three, and a bright percentage appeared. This didn't even need explanation; there was no doubt that one was the curtain damage level, and one was the redemption level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Judging... Judgment complete, the curtain maintenance area required for maintenance workers in Zone Z, District 6123 is...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A geographic map of the entire planet immediately appeared in the minds of the three, and then the range began to shrink. The continent they were on was marked, and then a circle indicated their maintenance range, including three cities, dozens of towns, and hundreds of villages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Such a large maintenance range!?\" Liu Zhen frowned and questioned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu was also surprised. If this area were the size of Earth, it would be about the size of the United States from New York to the central region, one-third the size of the United States.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, this world was clearly not Earth. It could be seen from the geographic map that there were three huge continents in the world, not connected in the middle. Besides that, there were scattered islands, and they were on one of the continents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Could it be because my strength is too strong?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu said with some lack of confidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although his strength was indeed growing and becoming stronger rapidly, strictly speaking, he was still struggling in the Baseline Reality 0.6 Dream World, far from Chu Minghao’s strength, and couldn't even be compared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So... was he underestimating himself?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, a voice and a picture appeared in the minds of the three.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone, I am Chu Minghao.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sunny and handsome young man was smiling, but he was covered in blood. In front of him were various monsters like mountains and seas, and where he stood was not the earth, but a giant beast at least a thousand meters long and three or four hundred meters high.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Friends, I need your help!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Minghao gradually restrained his smile and said seriously: \"As you all know, the 'Weekend' is becoming more and more difficult. I have known in advance that in the weekend after next, the weekend time will be extended to 48 hours, which is a devastating disaster for many friends.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And once this redemption is achieved, the weekend crisis will be greatly weakened, the duration will shrink back to 12 hours, and there will be many benefits, including the difficulty of establishing shelters in various Dream Worlds decreasing, the Main Brain’s judgment intensity increasing, etc.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Maybe some friends know me, and some friends are very strange to me, but it doesn't matter. This time, I will fight side by side with you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Minghao reached out and patted the sword box on his back. I don't know what happened, but the infinite monsters rushing like mountains and seas immediately disappeared. Then he continued: \"I have set up curtain weak points for you. If a curtain weak point appears in your maintenance area, the Main Brain will display it on the large map. After you arrive at the destination, penetrate the curtain, kill the monsters behind it, or solve the rules within it. Once achieved, the curtain weak point will be eliminated.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Remember, don't let the people of this world know the truth behind the curtain...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Minghao’s voice became weaker and weaker, and at the same time, the picture he was in became thinner and thinner. Finally, Chu Minghao’s voice and picture disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu silently thought about what Chu Minghao expressed, and Liu Zhen was truly shocked. His eyes were a little dazed. The picture Chu Minghao just transmitted was too stimulating to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Liang Min said with great excitement: \"Did you see it? Did you see it? This is Chu Minghao! The strongest battlefield weapon of the Human Unified Government, Chu Minghao, known as the ultimate decisive weapon!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu and Liu Zhen ignored him. The two looked at each other, and Liu Zhen said first: \"The area we need to maintain is too large. My suggestion is that the three of us split up and each manage an area. Then, whoever’s area the curtain weak point appears in, that person will rush over first to prevent the humans of this world from penetrating behind the curtain. How about it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Min immediately raised his hand and said: \"No, big brother, you want me to fight those monsters!? I’m just an ordinary person!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Zhen ignored him and just looked at Wu Pifu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu thought for a while and said: \"How about this: you and Liang Min manage a city and its surroundings, and I manage other areas. First, my strength is stronger. Second, I need you to help me too, to see if you can get some better vehicles. After all, with such a large area, we can't just run.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Zhen nodded in approval and said: \"That makes sense. Since this world has colonized the moon, there should be hovercars or similar flying vehicles... Okay, Liang Min and I will be on one path. I am very familiar with the underworld, and since Liang Min is an accountant, he is also familiar with making money. We will manage a city area, make money as soon as possible, and get vehicles. During this period, other areas will depend on you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu nodded and asked again: \"Then how should we contact each other?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three of them were naturally penniless in this world and had nothing, so contact was indeed a big problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Zhen thought for a long time before saying: \"There is really no way, you can only come to find us. We will gain a foothold in this city as soon as possible. The time is about... two days. Two days later, you can come to the underworld area of the city to inquire about us. If we have already gained a foothold, then I will naturally know you have come. If we haven't developed yet, then we will continue to maintain our respective areas. How about this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu couldn't think of any other way, so he could only nod in agreement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two discussed it again, and then parted ways. Liu Zhen took Liang Min to the nearest city. Looking at the map, if the two walked faster, they could reach the edge of the city in about five or six hours. If someone gave them a ride, the speed could be even faster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Wu Pifu, he had to manage two cities, dozens of towns, hundreds of villages, and the vast wilderness outside these population centers. Even if all his strength exploded now, it would be impossible to reach the other end of this area in a short time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The maintenance area was too huge. Unless he could fly into the sky and escape into the earth...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, the large map currently displayed by the Main Brain had not yet shown a curtain weak area, which at least gave Wu Pifu a buffer time, allowing him to better understand the world and go to the center of the area he needed to maintain first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It really is a world that is not what it seems.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu walked for a night. Although he didn't run explosively, he walked more than 300 kilometers and came to a town near the center of his maintenance area. He just wandered around the streets of the town at will, and the more he wandered, the more he felt a strange sense of déjà vu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The culture of this town was too much like a combination of the American West and a Mexican town.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through the funds provided by the lucky pedestrians on the road, Wu Pifu found an internet cafe and learned about most of the situation in this world by going online.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were three continents in this world, and each continent had a powerful country or federation, which were similar to the three places of Europe, East, and West in the 21st century Earth. From culture to political system, they were similar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the continent he was on was the sphere of influence similar to the West, named the Human Freedom Federation. The countries and forces of the other two continents were the People’s Coexistence State and the Supreme Empire, which were similar to the East and Europe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps because of geographic reasons, or some other reasons, these three major forces were interdependent and had competitive relationships other than war. And there had been no World War I and World War II, and their technological level was about 40 or 50 years behind the real Earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, judging from the information searched on the internet, this Dream World started a technological explosion 20 years ago. The three hegemonic forces all had a large number of research inventions. Even not only these three forces, some small countries’ research teams or scientists had epoch-making inventions and research.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In just over 20 years, the technology of this world had advanced from the level of the early 21st century to the level of moon colonization, and even space ships and mecha technology had explosive improvements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it the power behind the curtain?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu had not experienced any curtain yet, so he didn't know what was going on behind the curtain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And there were many mysteries unsolved, such as why the power behind the curtain wanted the human civilization of this world to develop greatly?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why couldn't the humans of this world know the truth behind the curtain?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And how exactly was Chu Minghao going to redeem this world?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Various mysteries were completely incomprehensible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With such doubts, Wu Pifu played two games similar to LOL in the internet cafe. Then, just as he was about to become a Zu'an horse hunter, a red dot appeared on the large map displayed by the Main Brain, and the location of this red dot was exactly in his maintenance area!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu didn't dare to neglect. He immediately held Daphne, who had a life-loveless expression, in one hand, and protected Qiuqiu with the other, and directly exploded his speed to run toward this curtain weak point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The curtain weak point was not far from where he was, with a straight-line distance of about 30 kilometers. Running at full speed, he arrived at the scene in less than 20 minutes, and then saw a lake, as well as scattered tents on the side of the lake, and people playing and having fun on the side of the lake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lake, campsite, wilderness... Why do I always feel that the picture in front of me is very familiar?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu stood on a small hill by the lake and looked down, seeing scattered crowds having a picnic. Then, as his vision expanded, he really saw a different picture in a certain area by the lake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That area appeared incomparably dim, forming a sharp contrast with the sunny surroundings. And what made Wu Pifu even more shocked was that this area was spreading to the surroundings at a slow speed. Although the spreading speed was not fast, it was already close to the camping area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu naturally didn't dare to neglect. He immediately ran down from the small hill, avoiding the camping and picnicking people as much as possible, and headed toward this curtain weak point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Wu Pifu arrived at this curtain weak point, he was surprised to see three people running quickly toward this weak point area. However, they seemed unable to see the specific location of the curtain weak point, so they were just searching around it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, the only woman among the three saw Wu Pifu. She was stunned for a moment, then immediately changed from a running state to a fast walk, and quickly walked to Wu Pifu, revealing a \"civil servant\" smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sir, there is a natural gas pipeline leak here. It’s a small matter. We are repairing it quickly, but to avoid your life safety, I hope you can leave this area,\" the beautiful woman said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu looked at her and the other two for a few times, then walked toward the curtain weak point, saying as he walked: \"I am from Zone Z, District 6123. How about you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beautiful woman was stunned, and the two men in the distance were also stunned. Then they immediately ran over. The beautiful woman breathed a sigh of relief and said: \"We are from Zone C, District 1611... Did our curtain maintenance areas overlap?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu didn't speak, just continued to walk forward with big strides. At this moment, they were still about 200 meters away from the curtain weak point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two men followed closely. They also saw that Wu Pifu seemed to have some ability to clearly know the location of the weak point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that Wu Pifu didn't answer, the beautiful woman said as she walked: \"It’s also possible. After all, the area to be maintained is too large. This large area between two towns, multiple teams overlapping and crossing maintenance, so that there will be no caught-off-guard situations.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wu Pifu’s heart moved, still didn't speak, and stepped directly into the curtain weak area in front.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three people behind were still talking, when suddenly the world turned upside down, and they suddenly came from the sunny noon to the dim and gloomy night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this behind the curtain!?\" the beautiful woman said in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two men were also looking around in surprise, and then the three suddenly felt horrified, because the strong man standing in front of them suddenly disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sister Li!\" the younger man immediately called out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beautiful woman covered his mouth and whispered: \"Don't make a sound!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three immediately crouched in the grass nearby. The older man whispered: \"That person just now... could it be something behind the curtain?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beautiful woman nodded slightly and said: \"Very likely! Deliberately leading us in, maybe it’s a ghost or monster.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then we...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three were whispering, and each was terrified. Suddenly, there was a rustling sound not far away. The three looked over by the dim moonlight, and then all three were scared out of their wits, their hands and feet starting to go soft.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They saw...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That strong young man, holding a head wearing a football mask in his hand, covered in blood, walking toward them!!\u003C\u002Fp>",2713,"2026-06-17T19:09:27.946Z","2026-06-18T03:30:09.135Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","e6cc4d562e2c18ca09d8eff5ca42aa155ad4d96e2229f0270d1f92a527cafc51","eternal-nightmare-night-chapter-140","eternal-nightmare-night-chapter-138",602,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Feternal-nightmare-night-cover.jpg"]
