Eternal Night

Chapter 716 Mythical Ship Appears?
It's only one million points...

Wu Pifu naturally carried a sense of nonchalance.

But in reality, one million points is a lot for the Land of Salvation right now. For example, even a guild as large as Gao Changgong's, where he is the guild leader, might not be able to come up with one million points at once. In fact, more than 70% of the Night Watchers probably haven't even seen what tens of thousands of points look like.

Even because of Wu Pifu, Xu Shilan and Amadeus didn't think one million points was a big number.

However, this is indeed a good omen. This Ocean Dream World has only just begun, and they have already received a mission worth one million points and can also obtain items from a secondary premium reward pool. They originally planned to establish a level 5 shelter, so this is practically a freebie.
Despite the fact that their plans to modify the Dog Egg and bring people in had fallen through, Wu Pifu and his two companions were still excited by this achievement. They rested in the Land of Redemption for a day and returned to the Ocean Dream World on the second day.

It was still an endless ocean, and there were no other monsters or signs around. It was no different from when the ship disappeared. After identifying it with the permanent pointer and nautical chart, Xu Shilan confirmed that this was still the location where they left.

The event-based shelter was indeed the most convenient of the three shelters provided by the mastermind, so the three continued their voyage towards the pirate territory.

However, when the Dog Egg sailed into a circumferential ocean current, and Wu Pifu needed to change the direction of the current, he was standing at the bow preparing to make a move when he suddenly froze slightly and stopped making the change.

Xu Shilan and Amadei were both puzzled. Amadei immediately became alert and said in a deep voice, "Is there a problem?"

Xu Shilan blinked her big eyes and looked at Wu Pifu.

After a long pause, Wu Pifu shook his head and said, "No, there are no enemies or dangers, it's just... there's an indescribable feeling."

Xu Shilan and Amadei trusted Wu Pifu implicitly, though their reasons differed. Both were drawn by the debt of gratitude he had saved and knew Wu Pifu was calm and collected. However, Xu Shilan's trust stemmed more from Wu Pifu's super-brain attribute, as her younger brother also possessed a super-brain. She had an almost blind trust in the existence of super-brains. Amadei, on the other hand, trusted those who didn't trust their partners and comrades during the three World Wars. Those who didn't trust their partners and comrades had died countless times. Therefore, even though Wu Pifu didn't reveal any specific details, both of them remained serious.

Xu Shilan said, "Wu Pifu, if anything seems wrong, you must speak up immediately. We are no match for you. You are a super brain and an extraordinary powerhouse. Your senses regarding danger, sixth sense, or disharmonious feelings are many times stronger than ours. So we can only rely on you in this regard. If there is a real problem, it is okay to abandon this dream world!"

"Do not……"

Wu Pifu shook his head slightly. He carefully sensed his martial arts intuition, and then used his spiritual sense and super brain to carefully perceive the situation. After a moment, he shook his head and said, "No, there's still nothing wrong. I can only say that there's a very strange feeling. Maybe I'm just overthinking it, or maybe I really have a problem because of a battle..."

Without waiting for the two to ask further questions, he said directly, "It's roughly the feeling that in the end, we'll have to fight a super enemy again."

Xu Shilan and Amadeus looked at each other, both speechless.

This brings us to Wu Pifu's experiences. After Xu Shilan and Amadei were resurrected, Wu Pifu truthfully recounted his experiences after their deaths. In particular, under Xu Shilan's persistent questioning, he told her about his experiences in almost every dream world.

At first, Xu Shilan and Amadei didn't think much of it, because their deaths were actually similar experiences, fighting to the death in the dream world.

However, after arriving at the Land of Redemption and interacting with other Night Watch members and teams, Xu Shilan and Amadeus felt speechless.

Basically, over 99% of the Dream World Explorers are exploring, searching, and managing within the Dream World. They retreat when they encounter a strong enemy, or they join forces with other Dream World forces to ambush, besiege, and annihilate them. However, such situations are rare. Most of the time, they retreat when things don't go well and then return to continue exploring. After all, with the Land of Redemption as their logistical headquarters, they don't have to worry about starving to death.

Never before has any team been as reckless as Wu Pifu, entering a dream world, searching and searching and searching... finding a good BOSS, saluting (greeted), shaking hands (let's fight), and finally killing the opponent...

The key point is that Wu Pifu's experience wasn't limited to just one or two dream worlds; he had this experience in almost every dream world. Heaven knows whether it's him or every dream world he encountered that had a problem. In any case, his strength is so great, and he was able to become stronger so quickly, which really has little to do with his super brain. Even if someone without a super brain had the same experience as him, as long as they didn't die, their strength probably wouldn't be much weaker.

Now that Wu Pifu has said this, Xu Shilan and Amadea both feel a chill down their spines.

Amade couldn't help but say, "Hey buddy, in my day, someone like you would usually be a scout."

Wu Pifu asked curiously, "Is it very impressive? Does it have a very strong sixth sense?"

“No,” Amade said seriously, “because dying won’t implicate others.”

Even Xu Shilan couldn't help but say, "No, little brother, tell your sister the truth, do you have some kind of title that can attract monsters? Do you really feel like you'll be fighting a super enemy in the end?"

Wu Pifu himself became insecure. He was bewildered and doubted himself for a long time, but still shook his head and swung his fist in front of him.

As the ocean currents changed, the Dog Egg sailed against the wind and waves, heading towards the pirate camp shown on the nautical chart.

As for Wu Pifu's damn premonition... well, that's just how it is. There's not even a trace of it now, and the three of them can't possibly give up on such a special dream world.

As for what kind of big boss actually appears... well, then all we can do is close the door and let the scoundrels out.

From their location, even if they changed the ocean currents and used the preceding waves to accelerate their progress, it would still take more than four days due to their sails and the vastness of the world. There were several no-man's-land areas along the way, where ships from the Order faction would hunt down pirates, and vice versa. To save time, the three decided to cross these areas directly. Nothing eventful happened that day. Early the next morning, Xu Shilan cooked a pot of curry fish balls with white rice. Wu Pifu and Amadei were exercising on the deck. When Xu Shilan brought out a large pot of food, they didn't stand on ceremony and each took out a bowl to slurp their rice.

Xu Shilan ate her meal with a smile and elegance. As she ate, Wu Pifu suddenly said, "The taste is not bad, but it's not as good as Huang Rong's."

Xu Shilan's expression stiffened, but she casually smoothed her hair and said, "Is this the little girl you had to spend a lot of points to pick up? Uncle Gao Changgong said she's a pretty girl with a sweet voice, who calls everyone 'uncle' and 'elder brother,' and has a sweet smile. She can even cook?"

Wu Pifu nodded earnestly and said, "I can make it, and it'll be incredibly delicious."

"Ohhhhhh."

Xu Shilan said "oh" several times before smiling and saying, "I'm so sorry, I've always been a pampered young lady and I can't cook. I'm really sorry."

Wu Pifu thought for a moment and said, "It's alright. After I bring Rong'er back, you can ask her to teach you how to cook."

"Crack."

Xu Shilan casually put down the cracked bowl, saying, "Oh dear, it's really hard to control your strength on this ship. I'm afraid I might accidentally hurt Rong'er when I'm learning to cook."

Wu Pifu immediately shook his head and said, "No, her path to transcendence is similar to the internal martial arts of the Immortal Martial Arts. I have also taught her Chinese martial arts and the Immortal Martial Arts. Almost a month has passed now. It will be more than half a year before I go back to pick her up. As long as she doesn't slack off, her strength should be much stronger than yours now."

The shadow beneath Xu Shilan's feet crawled up to her palm, swallowing the broken bowl in her hand before disappearing. She clapped her hands and said, "Oh dear, the broken bowl is no good. Also, I'm a bit tired today, so you'll have to figure out lunch and dinner yourselves. Now I'm going to train my supernatural powers so I don't get eliminated by some pretty, sweet-smiling, sweet-talking, and delicious-cooking girl."

With his mouth full of food, Amadeus said between bites, "You're tired, yet you're still exercising?"

"Eat your food!" Xu Shilan yelled fiercely at Amadei, then went to a corner of the deck and began practicing her shadow.

Wu Pifu and Amadei looked at each other, and Amadei whispered, "Did you say something wrong?"

"...I guess it's...cooking skills? Beautiful?" Wu Pifu asked in a low voice.

The two men whispered among themselves for a long time, but in the end, they couldn't come up with a solution.

Fortunately, their embarrassment didn't last long, as a three-masted pirate ship flying a pirate flag came to their rescue...

"...So, we can't reset the channel?"

Amadeus, his body shimmering like flowing liquid metal, sat atop a three-meter-tall pirate and asked.

The pirate, his face bruised and swollen, both arms broken, grinned menacingly and said, "That's right, only newly hatched Den Den Mushi can have channels set. My Den Den Mushi already has channels set, and only two..."

"That's no use."

"I'm throwing down the Den Den Mushi," said Amadeus.

The pirate captain and the pirates lying on the ground around him were in a great hurry. This was a small ocean current that only small merchant ships would pass through. They really did not expect to encounter such a ruthless person. The pirate captain immediately shouted, "Wait, wait a minute, I have important information! Spare my life and I will hand over the information immediately."

Amadeus casually twisted his arm, but unexpectedly Wu Pifu suddenly flashed from the distant Dog Egg ship directly onto this pirate ship.

Amade paused for a moment, then immediately asked, "Speak, what information?"

The pirate captain was still somewhat stunned, then looked at Wu Pifu with a face full of terror, and shouted loudly, "Dog, dog, dog..."

"Screw you!"

Xu Shilan's voice rang out from afar, and Amadei immediately slapped the pirate captain, who instantly became obedient and hurriedly said, "Just the night before last, my Den Den Mushi suddenly showed a mysterious third channel. I swear, my old-fashioned Den Den Mushi only has two channels. Wait, that's not the point. The point is, this mysterious channel told me..."

"The Level 10 Mythical Ship Dream, a mythical ship that can be boarded to travel to the Upper Realm, it..."

"It's right at the edge of the Misty Sea!!"
