After leaving the valley with the system, Gu Shi was blown in the face by an excited north wind as soon as he stepped out of the portal.
"Stop rubbing, stop rubbing, your hair is going to poke my eyes." Gu Shi reached out and pressed Shufeng's two big wings, then held it in his arms with a little force.
Gu Shi turned to look at the system and said, "Thank you for taking care of it during this period. Did Shuofeng cause you any trouble?"
The system replied: "No, it is very obedient."
The system seemed to like Shufeng very much. Gu Shi noticed that there was a new place in the room that belonged to Shufeng. It contained his little nest and there were a few toys scattered on the floor.
It seems that the two of them get along very well.
After Gu Shi went over and packed up Shufeng's things, the system had already arranged a portal for him to go home.
The system carefully reminded him, "The landing point is still the same as last time, in your room.
Go back and rest quickly. If you feel any discomfort later, please inform me immediately. After all, no one knows if there will be any sequelae, so please be careful."
Gu Shi nodded, "I understand. Don't worry, I will definitely not joke with my body."
"I'm leaving. Goodbye."
After saying goodbye to the system, Gu Shi walked into the portal.
When he opened his eyes again, what Gu Shi saw was a clean room. He pushed open the door and walked into the living room. Dad Gu was sitting on the sofa looking at his phone at that time.
Gu Shi heard the sound of the video playing outside. It sounded like he was watching the news, and the host of the program was giving a passionate speech.
"Dad, I'm back."
"Ouch! Where did you come from? You scared me, little brat."
Dad Gu's loud scream attracted Mom Gu from the room, and Gu Shi successfully received a round of strong greetings from both of them.
It took Gu Shi a while to calm down his father and mother's somewhat agitated emotions. After returning to his room, he breathed a long sigh of relief.
In the following time, in order to understand the changes that have taken place on Blue Star during this period, Gu Shi began to search for news.
Just as the system said, the evil sacrifice more than three months ago completely destroyed the peace that Blue Star had maintained.
A large number of demons and demonized creatures poured into the Blue Star recklessly, and some space cracks that were originally relatively stable also deteriorated rapidly.
Fortunately, after the last demon invasion, all countries increased their vigilance and took many defensive measures, which were successfully put to use this time.
Within ten minutes of the incident, cities across Xia Country had opened their protective shields one after another, and began sending rescue workers to bring residents outside the shields into shelters within the city.
Due to its swift action, the losses suffered by Xia Country can be said to be the least among all countries in the world, but the number of casualties is still terrifying.
As things have developed to this point, although no city’s protective shield has been breached, basically every city is now surrounded by a vast sea of monsters.
Among them, demons only account for a small number, and the vast majority are demonized creatures driven by them.
In order to get more help, some demons who successfully enter the Blue Star will take the initiative to find space cracks and detonate them, bringing all the demonized creatures in the cracks into the Blue Star.
However, the nations were too busy defending themselves to find the extra manpower to clean up the space rifts. In the end, they could only watch helplessly as the rifts brought in more enemies.
After browsing the news inside Xia Country, Gu Shi also paid attention to the situation in foreign countries. Not surprisingly, he found that several small countries with small populations and weak strength had been conquered by demons and completely disappeared from this world.
Looking at the devastated photos on his phone, Gu Shi sighed silently. He now only hoped that the ancient tree he had planted with his own hands could really play a corresponding role.
Although the current situation in Xia Country can be described as stable, if these foreign enemies cannot be expelled from the Blue Planet, who can guarantee that what these countries are facing today will not become their tomorrow?
"Huh? Cheng Xuqing and the others are back? They sent me so many messages." Gu Shi opened the software and found that both the individual chat and the group chat of the four of them were full of messages.
Gu Shi looked through the messages carefully and found that they were all messages asking about his specific situation. He found that the time was concentrated on the two days when the space-time gate was opened. After that, it seemed that they realized that he was not there, and Cheng Xuqing and Zhao Zhize did not send him any messages.
Gu Shi calculated the time. Cheng Xuqing and the others had returned almost two months ago, and the disaster had just broken out.
The two of them had been staying in another world before and had no channels to obtain information. When they first came back, they must have been shocked by these things and their heads were dazed.
From the frequency and tone of the messages they sent to Gu Shi, it could be seen that even the usually steady Zhao Zhize couldn't hold it anymore, and there was a sense of panic between the lines.
There was still no movement from Qi Yu, probably because he hadn't come back yet.
Gu Shi thought about it and sent a message directly in the group.
[Gu Shi: How are you two doing now?
Cheng Xuqing:!!!
Cheng Xuqing: Gu Shi, you're actually on Blue Star?!
Cheng Xuqing: Why didn’t you reply to my messages before? We thought you had gone to another world.
Gu Shi: I had something to do some time ago and went to a place with no signal. I didn’t even bring my cell phone with me, so I didn’t see your messages.
Cheng Xuqing: I see.
Cheng Xuqing: Gu Shi, let me tell you, you can't imagine what Zhao Zhize and I have been through. To be honest, when I first heard the news, I felt like the sky was falling.
Cheng Xuqing: Everyone was happily thinking about going home, but as soon as we got back to Blue Planet, we were overwhelmed by the news of the demon invasion, which was a complete ups and downs.
Cheng Xuqing: I even met someone who was so scared that he had a heart attack.
Cheng Xuqing: Alas, this really happened so suddenly. Gu Shi, you've been here the entire time. Do you have any inside information you can share?
Gu Shi: To be honest, I found out about this even later than you did.
Gu Shi: Actually, I just came out of a closed space today. I stayed in there for eight months and didn’t receive any news. I was just checking information on my mobile phone.
Cheng Xuqing: ...
Gu Shi: Let’s not talk about me anymore. How are you two doing now?
Zhao Zhize: We're all staying together at the temporary school base right now. After the demons invaded, transportation between cities was cut off, and we couldn't return for a while, so many of us chose to stay at the base.
Zhao Zhize: Given the current situation, we probably have to stay in the base for a long time. There are too many enemies outside, and it will be difficult to restore normal traffic.
Cheng Xuqing: That’s right, there are so many monsters crowded outside the protective shield, it gives me goosebumps.
Cheng Xuqing: And even though everyone's been working day and night to clear out the monsters, the number of monsters doesn't seem to have budged at all. It's really depressing.
