Eternal Night

Chapter 622 A Hodgepodge and Time Nodes
(PS: I'm sorry, it's almost 12 o'clock. I sincerely apologize to everyone.)

The reason I've been updating late lately is because I haven't saved any drafts. My lawsuit has also taken up some of my energy. Although my lawyer is handling most of the work, it still takes up a lot of my energy and time, whether it's providing evidence, signing documents, or filing an appeal in another jurisdiction.

I will try my best to adjust and update on time. Right now, I need to save up some chapters first, otherwise it will be difficult to add more chapters. Please give me a few days, and I will try to get the update time back on track by the end of this week.

Finally, thank you to Alliance Leader _Qingci for the generous donation; an extra chapter is added as a special thank you for your support!
Wu Pifu felt that his physical and mental state was much better than before.

Wu Pifu, who has become the root of the problem, helped him calm the negative backlash and also helped him regulate the physical burden and disharmony.

Although he wasn't transformed back into his original human body, he undoubtedly bore the backlash from the super-brain world he used outside of time reversal.

This kind of backlash transfer is similar to a causal relationship, and it can only occur in two different personalities of Wu Pifu who are of the same kind and origin, under the causal pull of the object of homesickness fantasy.

For Wu Pifu, it was a fatal backlash; for Wu Pifu, who had already reached the root level, it was a trivial injury. There was no comparison between them, so it was not a big deal.

"Excellent, fully recovered!"

Wu Pifu pinched his arm and felt that his body was no longer showing any signs of collapse. He laughed and looked around. Then he was stunned because he was standing at an intersection. People all around him were taking pictures of him with their phones. At the same time, many cars were honking their horns because his sudden appearance had caused a traffic jam on the road.

However… the reactions of those around him left Wu Pifu somewhat stunned.

Because the people around him, including the drivers who kept honking their horns, were either watching the show, or they were impatient. Some even yelled at him and told him to get off the road.

This is not the right reaction.

It's important to know that Wu Pifu is currently 3.5 meters tall, a height that is impossible in the real world. His physique is full of violent genes, the kind of person who you can tell at a glance could cut through a street with a watermelon knife. The people around him are obviously ordinary people, and judging from their clothes, the size of the surrounding buildings and vehicles, this place looks like a 21st-century world. So why are these ordinary people not surprised at all by his appearance?
Not right.

Just as Wu Pifu was about to use his super brain to sense the emotions of the people around him in order to confirm where he was, a voice rang out behind him.

"Hey buddy, are you a robot or a human?"

Wu Pifu looked in the direction of the voice and saw a guy wearing a tight-fitting bodysuit and a cloak, with a strange mask covering his face. He was carrying a peach wood sword on his back and riding a broom, speaking to him from above.

No... this design is toxic!

Wu Pifu was somewhat taken aback. He stared at the man, who, completely oblivious, arrogantly declared, "That's right, it's me, the good friend of all the citizens of Central City, the law-abiding vigilante, the nemesis of evil, the genius magician..."

"Wait a moment."

Wu Pifu interrupted the man directly. He looked around and had a strange sense of familiarity and déjà vu. He ignored the man and took off into the air at an altitude of 10,000 meters. He looked down from there.

Sure enough, the city looked really strange. Many of the iconic buildings he remembered were mixed together, such as several monuments, the Louvre, the Statue of Liberty, and he even saw the location of Red Square...

This world... is a "21st century" haphazardly pieced together from his memories. This is definitely not right!

"Master AI, assess my condition!"

"Judging...judging...judging..."

The mainframe started freezing again indefinitely, and upon hearing this sound, Wu Pifu's heart skipped a beat. He knew he was in big trouble.

In the first two time points, he had some discussions with Wang Yihui, Chu Yuyan and others, and the topic of discussion was time travel.

Because of the time-space reversal data recorded by Chu Minghao, Wang Yihui and others have a lot of knowledge about time-space reversal. In particular, human scientists have conducted considerable research on this topic, and have even created models of absolute and relative time-space concepts. Moreover, this does not involve information on time-space causality, so they have told him basically everything they could.

In all the time travels, there is a crucial core that can never be escaped... the Time-Space Island!
Because time reversal is not allowed in physics, it violates the law of causality. Whether it's the grandfather paradox of going backward or the unknown paradox of going forward, both violate the most basic logical concepts. To achieve time reversal, it must be done without violating these two logical concepts. The time-space island is actually a logical solution proposed under the time reversal paradox.

In other words, once any form or degree of spacetime logic paradox is created during spacetime rewind, the person performing the spacetime rewind will be trapped in a self-enclosed spacetime kink, similar to a Möbius strip. No matter which side you walk from, there will always be only one side, and you will always return to the starting point.

In the isolated island of time and space, all matter, energy, space, time, and causal logic will be restored in a cyclical manner. Once you fall into it, you will not be able to escape in any form, and even death cannot escape this infinite cycle!

According to Wang Yihui and others, its characteristics can be categorized into three possibilities. The first possibility is that it is an event-type spacetime island, meaning that when you try to change the past or obtain unknown information from the future, you will fall into an infinite loop because of this behavior, bending from the river of time into a Möbius strip on the time plane, and thus you will never be able to escape this terrifying time hell.

The second type is a shattered spacetime island. Once trapped in such a spacetime island, one will experience an indescribable sense of fragmentation. All the fragments of information in spacetime will be randomly piled up, and the cycle time within it will be randomly generated from one Planck second to infinity. At the same time, the cycle of space is also randomly determined. This type of shattered spacetime island is the most special and also the most terrifying. Any life that is in it will suffer the most terrifying torment in the world.

Then there is the third type, which is called a memory-mixed spacetime island. Generally speaking, this type of spacetime island is "created". In the absolute spacetime model designed by scientists, they believe that as long as the first existence achieves spacetime rewind, then all subsequent spacetime rewinds will be impossible.

Because the first being to achieve time reversal will dominate the entire timeline, and its existence is essentially a part of time and space. This being can be considered a natural phenomenon at the time and space level, since it cannot escape. It can pull other life forms into time and space islands, and these created time and space islands are memory-mixed time and space islands.

Wu Pifu speculated that if such an existence truly existed, then it was very likely Chu Minghao, the Roots, and another "time-space wheel" that Wu Pifu had mentioned!

In other words... he has now been captured by the Time-Space Wheel and is in the third type of time-space island!

"Master Machine, activate the Absolute Spacetime Anchoring Protocol!"

"Determination in progress... Determination complete, using absolute spacetime anchoring protocol."

The next second, Wu Pifu vanished into thin air, and with his disappearance, the entire world vanished as well…

This time, there was no absolute spacetime penetration. Wu Pifu stood on the ground in the blink of an eye. He quickly looked around and saw that the distant mountains were curved, and the surrounding world was a round blob, which looked very strange.

"……Who are you?"

A voice rang out not far from Wu Pifu. He quickly looked over and saw a man and a woman emerge from a spatial rift. Both of them looked wary. Wu Pifu was unfamiliar with the woman, so he didn't mention her for the time being, but he recognized the man.

This is the person who previously replaced Liang Min at the presidential office meeting. This person is clearly highly trusted by Liang Min and is considered one of Liang Min's confidants. He is also someone who has mastered the extraordinary spatial pathway, which is a very rare extraordinary pathway in the dream world. It has many uses and its abilities are extremely strong.

Wu Pifu breathed a sigh of relief and immediately said, "I am Wu Pifu. Where is Liang Min?"

Both of them were startled. They exchanged a glance, and the woman immediately said, "Impossible! Mr. Wu is much more handsome than you!"

Wu Pifu immediately laughed happily, "Yes, yes, that's right. But there was a problem with my physical body, so I changed to another one. It's okay. Call Liang Min over; he can verify my identity."

The woman hesitated, then looked at the man. The man scrutinized Wu Pifu for a long while before saying, "Sorry, my partner has a bit of a peculiar sense of aesthetics. She thinks that bloodthirsty and murderous tendencies are good..."

Wu Pifu immediately said, "What do you mean? Don't deny other people's aesthetic sense, that's none of your business! And what about Liang Min?"

The man hesitated for a moment, then nodded to Wu Pifu and said, "I'm sorry, I still can't confirm that you are really Mr. Wu, but it's okay. There are sub-brains on the ship. If you really are Mr. Wu, then you should dare to go to the sub-brains to test it, right?"

Wu Pifu readily agreed. He walked towards the two and said, "Don't worry, I don't have any weapons on me. Now take me to test myself. I'll ask one last time, where is Liang Min?"

The man remained silent, but the woman was beginning to believe he was Wu Pifu. She immediately said, "Mr. Wu, if you really are Mr. Wu... there's still time! Please go and stop the leader!"

"He's going to kill President Chu Minghao!!"
