Li Ze was still not entirely at ease.

"I'll have someone keep an eye on it, and wake you up immediately if the exit shows any signs of shrinking," He Xingjue assured him.

Li Ze stared intently at He Xingjue, making sure the other party wouldn't lie to him, before saying, "Okay."

He Xingjue's room is still there; Gao Feng has preserved it.

Li Ze entered the room, went straight to the bed, and without even taking off his clothes, lay down, closed his eyes, and fell into a deep sleep.

He Xingjue watched this scene with a mixture of amusement and heartache.

He didn't even take off his clothes before collapsing onto the bed, pulling Li Ze into his arms and holding him tightly. He fell asleep almost instantly.

Various legions continued to converge on Vermilion Bird Star. Initially, five legions were summoned, but later it was found that this was not enough, so three more were added.

Eight legions surrounded Vermilion Bird Star and launched a fierce bombardment against the Void Beasts. One day, two days, three days, until the fourth day, the number of Void Beasts finally decreased significantly.

Li Ze and He Xingjue slept for four days. When they woke up, they looked at each other and had a strange feeling that they didn't know what year it was.

Glug—

I don't know whose stomach growled first.

"Shall we go get something to eat first?" He Xingjue asked.

Li Ze hummed in agreement. "The beast tide isn't over yet, is it?"

"Does this sound like the end of the artillery fire?" He Xingjue asked rhetorically.

"It doesn't look like it."

Li Ze was a little confused. He followed He Xingjue out of the room and headed towards the cafeteria.

He Xingjue ordered a lot of food for the two of them. At this moment, a message came to his personal computer: "Commander, the exit seems to be getting smaller."

He Xingjue replied with two words: "I understand."

He looked at Li Ze on his body and said without changing his expression, "I'm going to the command room to find Gao Feng to get some information. You wait here for the chef to serve the dishes. Let me know when they're ready."

Li Ze, unsuspecting, replied, "Okay."
