Zhao Chen opened his eyes.

Before me was a bed, a scene both familiar and strange.

He sat up abruptly.

Looking around.

This...this is actually my room?

Zhao Chen stared in astonishment at the room's layout, which felt familiar yet strangely unfamiliar.

A 1.8-meter single bed, coffee-colored sheets, and a thick winter quilt.

I turned my head and looked at the napkins on the white °• N o v e l i g h t •° bedside table and the white cylindrical bedside lamp from a certain company.

On the left is a traditional dark wood wardrobe. At the corner of the wardrobe and the door, there is a three-tiered curved table with a distinctively modern feel, which can be used to place some items or ornaments.

Opposite the bed was a large white wall.

Zhao Chen vaguely remembered that when he was free, he liked to use this wall to watch movies with a projector.

It was so awesome!

In the right corner at the foot of the bed, there is a wooden desk.

The desk was covered with a computer, a CPU, a keyboard, and some miscellaneous items such as water cups and pens.

Water cups are the most numerous, in particular.

Zhao Chen likes to drink water.

There were three water glasses on the table.

An orange thermos that can hold 1L, mainly used for drinking water in winter.

A complimentary ceramic mug, primarily for drinking coffee and tea bags.

There's also a regular green water cup. It's mainly used when the water in the thermos is too hot; I pour some into this cup to let it cool for a while before drinking.

On the table, there was also a cat-shaped ornament.

That was one of the few 'decorative items' he bought, because he really liked cats.

However, it is not suitable to keep a cat at home.

There is also a trash can next to the desk.

To the right of the bed are blue curtains. Because they don't block out light very well and there's no curtain box, beams of light can be seen shining out, like Roman columns.

Zhao Chen's breathing gradually became rapid.

Ignoring the cold of the south, he jumped out of bed.

I walked barefoot to the window.

He flung open the window.

There are two glass windows and a screen window.

The light outside was blinding.

Across the street is a residential complex that was only built a few years ago.

Zhao Chen, disregarding the fact that he was still wearing only a thin shirt, immediately opened the window.

A gust of cold wind blew in.

Zhao Chen shivered from the cold.

Two succulent plants stand out prominently inside the window railing.

But the situation is quite different.

The peach tree bears several burn marks from the summer, making it look rather disheveled.

The other pansy was quite nice; because it was winter, the tips of its leaves had turned red.

Zhao Chen was dumbfounded.

He...he's back now?

Was everything before that just a dream?

No!

impossible!

I remember it so clearly.

How could it be a dream!

Those six or seven years, the Dragon Star Empire, Charlotte, Lilith, and the child who was about to be born.

How could this be a dream!

Zhao Chen stumbled backward, bumping into the edge of the bed and falling to his seat.

He was completely lost.

He simply cannot accept what is happening now.

Hiss hiss hiss

At this moment, the computer screen, which had been off, turned on automatically.

Zhao Chen shifted his gaze over there.

The computer is turned on.

The first thing to be revealed is naturally the desktop.

There are various documents related to Zhao Chen on it.

When he first saw it, it felt somewhat unfamiliar.

But these memories soon began to attack his brain.

He... is a teenager in 2023, who has just graduated.

Unable to find a job, I stayed at home and occasionally wrote novels to earn some extra money.

These are some of the materials he used.

But why... when he first transmigrated, these memories seemed somewhat blurry?

It's because too much time has passed.

Look at the bottom right corner of the computer screen.

There is time.

Linhai City, February 26, 2023, temperature 3%, light rain.

Was all of this really just a dream I was indulging in?

Hiss hiss hiss

Suddenly, the piercing sound rang out again.

At this point, the entire screen went garbled.

Then a dark figure appeared on the screen.

"Do you want to know the truth...?"

Then come find me...

As soon as he finished speaking, the world around Zhao Chen began to collapse.

Sure enough, everything I had experienced was not a dream; this place was the dream world.

But this dream was so realistic.

Zhao Chen looked at the collapsed room.

Suddenly, he thought of something.

He suddenly looked at the closed door.

He rushed over and tried to open the door.

The door slowly opened.

Outside is the familiar living room and dining room.

Two familiar figures were sitting on chairs in the restaurant, drinking hot porridge and eating breakfast.

Before Zhao Chen could even see their faces clearly, everything in front of him completely collapsed.

There was only one sentence left unsaid.

"Hey, why are you up so early today..."

Zhao Chen suddenly woke up with a start.

He looked around.

Familiar surroundings.

This is the captain's cabin, which is being used temporarily by this interstellar warship.

"His Majesty!"

A surprised voice came from the side.

The leopard woman was looking at him with excitement, her eyes filled with worry.

Zhao Chen controlled his emotions and asked directly, "What just happened?"

How did I get here!

The leopard woman controlled her emotions and immediately said, "Commander."

Just now, you were on the bridge, attending a meeting about the final battle against the Zerg hive. When you stood up from your throne, you suddenly fainted and collapsed to the ground.

No matter how I call out to you, you won't wake up.

However, all your health information is normal.

I then took you to the captain's cabin and used some equipment to try to wake you.

Zhao Chen then noticed that several emergency medical devices were placed beside the bed, but they were now scattered and disorganized.

The leopard woman continued, "Eight minutes and thirty seconds have passed since you fell unconscious and then woke up."

According to the emergency plan we had agreed upon.

If you do not regain consciousness within ten minutes of fainting.

I will contact Grand Marshal Charlotte and High Secretary Lilith to inform them of everything that has happened.

After listening to what the leopard woman said, Zhao Chen nodded.

These were indeed things that had already been discussed and agreed upon.

He was unconscious for about eight minutes.

This is about the same amount of time I spent in that dreamlike space.

That's so weird.

The main thing is that everything in that space is just too similar.

Even in a dream, it can't be that realistic.

Some things that Zhao Chen himself couldn't remember were actually restored one by one in his dream.

At that moment, Zhao Chen truly doubted whether everything he had experienced in this world was just a grand dream.

"Your Majesty, are you... alright?" the leopard woman asked again, somewhat worried.

"I'm fine now."

Don't worry.

There's no need to tell Charlotte and Lilith what just happened.

So as not to worry them.

Let's go back to the bridge first.

"I reckon that girl Tao Beibei is scared out of her wits right now," Zhao Chen said, feigning composure.
