Start a Subspace

Chapter 5 The Defector

Great Xia Kingdom Central Refuge.

Roaring machines are mining underground minerals, and busy logistics are connecting various underground blocks.

Nearly 13 million people have settled here. Thanks to the maturity of industrial synthetic starch technology and the continuous production of cheap food, the order in the shelter is still intact, and there are not too many hungry people.

In the sixth trade area, the noisy hawking added a rare scent of incense to the refuge.

Dried earthworms and various bugs are the best-selling snacks.

For ten years, people have gradually gotten used to the hard life in the shelter.

These scenes are all changes made by the previous emperor in order to win people's hearts.

The country is shattered, but people's feelings for a strong country will not disappear immediately.

The once mascot, the royal family, filled this feeling and became a kind of belief.

The imperial power is slowly recovering.

In the rest of the refuges, the consortium controls everything, resulting in a huge gap between the rich and the poor.

"Little girl, what kind of big earthworm do you want? Dahe No. 1 or Dahe No. 2? Let me tell you, don't look at Dahe No. 1, which is round and fat. It looks good, but it eats chicken dung. Grown up, it smells rancid. It was fed to the chickens!"

"Dahe No. 2 grew up eating swill, so it is long and thin, but it is more expensive and chewy!"

"There is also this dried earthworm, which is dried and processed. It tastes similar to beef jerky. It is very popular!"

The lean businessman picked up a stout earthworm.

The earthworm twisted and twisted in the hand, struggling to form various shapes.

"However, let me tell you in advance that earthworms are relatively high in heavy metals, and if you eat too much, you will easily get gastroenteritis."

"Why don't you buy some fried Tenebrio molitor? High-end nutrition, complete with protein, and can also supplement microorganisms. Cockroaches and ants are actually good, but they don't look good, but they actually taste good."

Ling obediently followed behind Zhang Ran, keeping a distance of about three meters, without saying a word. This is also her daily life as a bodyguard.

"Here's a box of fried Tenebrio molitor!" Unable to bear the temptation of snacks, she said to the vendor.

"Okay, the price... for two catties of food stamps, it can't be lower. This Tenebrio molitor grew up eating leftover leaves. It's very high quality and doesn't have any fishy smell." The middle-aged man's face beamed with joy. Brow tip, reported a number.

In order to build the shelter, the production of resources is limited, and it is already very good to feed everyone.

General-purpose food stamps can go to official shopping malls to buy industrially synthesized starch, which is also the most important food for human beings.

And food is the strongest hard currency in the current refuge.

After Ling bought this box of worms, a faint smile appeared on his face, and he seemed very satisfied.

"Your Highness, what kind of ability have you awakened?" Zhou Chengfeng asked quietly beside the prince.

"Maybe it's...subspace?" Zhang Ran pondered for a while and said.

He has to trust some people in order to accomplish something.

Zero, and Zhou Chengfeng, the chairman of the board, are two people with an extremely low probability of betrayal.

Because they are too deeply bound to the royal family, the royal family is damaged, and their interests are also damaged.

Especially Zero, a psyker who was raised by the royal family, grew up together, and has almost no possibility of rebellion.

"Subspace... Do you mean a different space? In our history, this kind of ability has appeared before."

"The battle of Troy 3,000 years ago changed the situation because of the Trojan horse. Afterwards, many experts believed that the psychic was born among the Greeks, who controlled a kind of ability called different space, and a large number of soldiers were hidden in it. the Trojans."

"Otherwise, those Trojans couldn't be so stupid that they couldn't find people hidden in the Trojan horse."

"The ability of the different space is very good, but... well, it can't change the overall situation."

"Uncle Zhou, mine may be different."

Just as Zhang Ran was about to say something, Zhou Chengfeng's communicator rang suddenly. After seeing the news, his expression changed: "Your Highness, someone in the army wants to defect!"

Zhang Ran's face also became heavy.

Has the instigation from other forces come so soon?

Human political struggles have never stopped since ancient times.

From the distant tribal age, to the slave age, to the feudal age, to the industrial age... Even in the doomsday era, the control of power is still the core of human struggle.

Because power is related to interests!

A group of officers of the Royal Legion are preparing to defect to other refuges in a hurry!

Those refuges promised them a certain number of places to survive.

These military officers hold military power and are regarded as the pillars of the royal family's power.

"You... you are a traitor. Who said that the royal family only has 5,000 places? Who said that?"

"The prince did not sign it, we will never recognize that treaty!"

"The situation is stronger than people. Could it be that we really can't go to war with other forces? Impossible. As long as all parties have formed a consensus, how can it be so easy to destroy it."

"We are mantis arms blocking the car!"

"Yeah, the other forces have signed the treaty... Can we really fight through it?"

"If the emperor is still alive, I must be loyal to him. But now I'm just a prince..."

"I also have a family with children!"

This group of people all took their families and rushed to the train station as fast as possible.

"Old Guo, if you don't want to leave, don't stop us!"

"Prince...do you really count on him? Don't you know his virtues?"

"You...you..." The school officer named Lao Guo blushed, unable to utter any rebuttal words.

Those who can get the surviving places of other forces are all high-ranking members of the army.

After all, once the news spreads, it is easy to cause riots among the people, so there are only a few high-ranking officials who can instigate rebellion.

But these people are enough to instigate rebellion, enough to bring a major blow to the royal family.

The engine of the train is warming up. This is a military train, which is full of goods and not many passengers.

Suddenly, the door of the carriage opened.

Zhang Ran, Zhou Chengfeng, and Ling stood outside the car door, watching them quarrel quietly.

"Your Highness, Chairman!" The school official surnamed Guo, named Guo Weiqiang, quickly saluted.

It was he who reported the news to Zhou Chengfeng.

Before he could speak, terrifying murderous intent filled the entire carriage!

Zero quietly floated in mid-air, with two braids floating and a serious face.

"Your Highness, you step back."

The rest of the school officials felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy. The tremendous pressure brought by the psykers made people tremble with fear and sweat uncontrollably.

But under the current circumstances, it was impossible for them to succumb, one by one reaching for the pistols on their waistbands.

One of them suddenly revealed the bomb strapped to his body and gritted his teeth, "Your Highness, I have done so many things for the royal family, why not give me a chance to live?"
