Chapter 49

A very interesting book.)

"What it shelters is the root of your 'existence'. How should I describe it..."

Chu Minghao's expression was very serious. He deliberated for several minutes, even opening his mouth to speak silently during the period, as if something was preventing it, or he noticed something and didn't make a sound.

After a long time, Chu Minghao said, "The 'Weekend' is the appearance of the origin of everything, the Dream World is the process triggered by the origin of everything, and if all life on Gaia dies, loss is the consequence triggered by the origin of everything... This is too empty. Let's talk about some practical things."

"The 'sheltering' effect of the shelter is specifically reflected in the following areas. First, the more and stronger your shelters are, the more times you can withstand death during the 'Weekend' without getting lost. At the same time, your ability to resist pollution during the 'Weekend' will be stronger, and the possibility of entering high-risk areas during the 'Weekend' will be smaller."

"Second, the more and stronger your shelters are, the less likely you are to be watched by high-level existences. Even if you are watched, it will take a long time to be drawn into a low-baseline reality Dream World by high-level existences. The shelter will isolate and weaken the influence of high-level existences on you."

"Third, the more and stronger your shelters are, the more maintenance staff and citizens trapped in the Dream World you can absorb. This is also the reward for the main brain's awakened personnel. I think you have all experienced similar things."

Wu Pifu listened carefully to this information. When he heard the end, he couldn't help asking, "I can understand citizens. All citizens are trapped in the changed dream network, which is the current Dream World. But haven't maintenance staff always not joined the dream network?"

Before Chu Minghao could speak, Xu Shilan explained from the side, "No, this is your misunderstanding. The dream network is a virtual reality controlled by the main brain that is open to all humans. Citizens can move freely in it. And maintenance staff are just unable to move freely. But in order to avoid the problem of the 50-year limit of sleep, maintenance staff are actually also in the dream network, just on the edge of the dream network."

Chu Minghao said, "Exactly. So the level of the shelter is related to the number and category of awakened personnel that can be absorbed in the Dream World. A Level 1 shelter can revive three maintenance staff, a Level 2 shelter can revive five maintenance staff, a Level 3 shelter can revive ten maintenance staff, or one citizen. Level 4 is fifty maintenance staff or five citizens. Level 5 is ten citizens. I haven't set up higher-level shelters, so I don't know."

This information was very important. Wu Pifu, Amada, and Xu Shilan all kept it firmly in mind. Wu Pifu asked again, "Then what are the rewards for each shelter?"

Chu Minghao said, "Level 1 is a random lottery. Level 2 is a personal attribute improvement, but it can only be improved to the limit value, the title can be improved to Citizen Level 2, the three basic attributes can be improved to Rank 3, and extraordinary techniques can be improved to the peak Manifest Saint level. Level 3 is a personal information data interface. You should all know this. Level 4 is the acquisition of designated items in the Dream World. Level 5 is the extraction of titles in the Dream World. Level 6 is..."

Wu Pifu and the others said at the same time, "Wait a minute, what is title extraction?"

Chu Minghao thought for a while and said, "The reward provided by the main brain is actually your degree of control over the Dream World by setting up a shelter. The higher the shelter level, the higher the percentage of the main brain's control over the Dream World. And at Level 5, the main brain can already extract the pollution source of the Dream World to form a special ability similar to a fantasy object, and then grant this ability to you in the form of a title."

While speaking, Chu Minghao patted his forehead, and the three saw three lines of text appear on his head. The first line was "Sun Seeker", the second line was "God of War of Tumu Fortress", and the third line was "Red Wolf".

Chu Minghao had some embarrassment and redness on his face. He explained, "These three are my titles. How should I put it... because this is a fantasy ability transformed by the pollution source through the main brain, it is not controlled by me. The effect of the first title is that I can make the sun appear in the sky for one minute at any time, in any place, and in any situation. The side effect is... cough, as long as my body's nakedness exceeds 70%, then regardless of gender, age, or even any intelligent life that is not human, they will all want to have sex with me."

The three were dumbfounded.

Chu Minghao lowered his head, his face even redder. He continued, "The second title is that as long as it is in a region, country, or world named Tumu Fortress, my strength will soar to the theoretical limit of that region, country, or world. The side effect is that except for me, other people who follow me, my companions, comrades-in-arms, teammates, etc., will all die suddenly or be captured for inexplicable reasons in that area."

Xu Shilan and Amada didn't feel anything, but started to think about the power and usage of this title. Only Wu Pifu's mouth kept twitching.

Chu Minghao continued, "The third title's effect is that as long as I use a vehicle, all the values of the vehicle will increase by 50%. This is an extraordinary power, so it exceeds the limit of the vehicle's physical structure. The side effect is that as long as I get off the vehicle, within about ten minutes, my personal combat power and attributes will drop by 50%."

"Title extraction is the same as random extraction. The first title extraction will extract the title that best fits you. And the first one I extracted was Red Wolf, which increased my strongest combat power by more than several times!"

Xu Shilan and Amada still didn't feel there was any problem, while Wu Pifu's mouth twitched even more.

Red Wolf, right? Killed after getting off the battle vehicle, right!?

After Chu Minghao finished saying these, his embarrassment finally dissipated a lot. He smiled and said, "All fantasy objects are actually like this. The effect in a certain aspect is very powerful, but it will carry negative effects or roles. For example, this magic mirror, its effect is very powerful, but the side effect is also very difficult to deal with."

Xu Shilan asked, "What is it?"

Chu Minghao's expression was embarrassed, seemingly not wanting to answer. But his personality was honest. After being silent for a few seconds, he endured the embarrassment and said, "Every time I use it, I need to praise it to the extreme, to praise it as the most awesome and beautiful mirror in the world. Otherwise, it will produce cracks. If there are many cracks, it will shatter." Xu Shilan and Amada were both thinking, and also said that this side effect was easy to solve, while Wu Pifu was no longer twitching his mouth; his whole face was twitching... It's hard to hold back laughter, okay!?

Chu Minghao coughed and said, "Then continue, Level 6 shelter... can talk to the dead once every 30 days, lasting for ten minutes."

Xu Shilan stood up suddenly, bumping the table out of place. She stared at Chu Minghao and said, "What did you say!?"

Chu Minghao looked back at Xu Shilan frankly, "Can talk to the dead once every 30 days. That's right, it's the theoretical effect of the dead returning that was not completed at the beginning. Talk to the dead once, lasting for ten minutes. And this dead person includes those you know, those in your memory, or those legendary dead people you imagine. This reward is actually a reward for obtaining various important information."

Xu Shilan sat down in a daze, muttering about whether there really were dead people.

Wu Pifu patted Xu Shilan's shoulder and was about to continue asking questions, but Chu Minghao said again, "I only know the reward for a Level 6 shelter, because I have only set up a Level 5 shelter. Besides that, there is also an extremely important piece of information about the shelter that I must tell you!"

"According to the different baseline realities of the Dream World, there is an upper limit to the shelter level that can be set up!"

Wu Pifu was stunned. After he carefully understood the information, he was immediately horrified.

Chu Minghao said, "In the 0.9 Dream World, the shelter level limit is Level 3. 0.8 is Level 4, 0.7 is Level 5, and so on. The lower the baseline reality of the Dream World, the higher the shelter level limit!"

Wu Pifu immediately asked, "What is the guarding time for a Level 3 shelter?"

Chu Minghao nodded to Wu Pifu with appreciation and said, "Very good. You almost immediately noticed the danger in this... The guarding time for a Level 3 shelter is 5 days every 30 days. In other words, if you are greedy for safety and greedy for more personal attribute reward improvements, you set up six Level 3 shelters in the 0.9 Dream World, then you can never set up other shelters again. You can only spend your days in these six Level 3 shelters until a high-level existence invades, destroys, and eventually you are either polluted or killed. The most terrifying thing is being dragged into those indescribable terrifying worlds by high-level existences and disappearing completely!"

!

Wu Pifu, Amada, and Xu Shilan all felt a sense of horror.

Chu Minghao said, "So my suggestion is to set up at most one shelter in the 0.9 baseline reality world, and the same for the 0.8 world. This is a ladder downward. The guarding time for a Level 3 shelter is 5 days, the guarding time for a Level 4 shelter is 3 days, and the guarding time for a Level 5 shelter only needs 1 day! So try to set up a shelter in the 0.7 world, then increase its level, obtain a title, and after having enough strength, go to the 0.6 world!"

"Here, I must remind the three of you that the 0.9 world to the 0.7 world belongs to the upper world, and the safety actually belongs to a very high category. But from the 0.6 world, it starts to be completely different. Pollutants will appear in an explicit state, and at the same time, high-level existences can easily project powerful enough forces. Setting up a shelter in the 0.6 world is a very, very, very difficult thing, and even I failed twice."

Chu Minghao frankly exposed his back, and on his back, a scar that almost split his body in two appeared.

"This is the result of my attempt to set up a shelter in the 0.6 baseline reality world."

Wu Pifu and Amada just looked at the wound, while Xu Shilan only then knew how strong Chu Minghao was, and felt incredible about such a wound.

Chu Minghao was very frank. He laughed, "But as long as it can't kill me, it will only make me stronger... I hope the three of you are the same. Try to live, try to become stronger, don't despair, don't give up. What doesn't kill us will only make us stronger. Let's encourage each other!"

Just then, there was a commotion and footsteps outside the private room. After a flurry of activity, the door of the private room was opened, and a group of tall and strong soldiers wearing golden armor stood at the door, accompanied by several beardless eunuchs.

The leading eunuch looked into the private room, then showed a near-flattering smile, respectfully and softly saying, "Immortal..."

"His Majesty invites you."
