Chapter 32: Strange
In Fraser's narration, the veil of mystery in the Diagonal Zone is gradually revealed.
The Diagonal District implements a strict hierarchical system, and the highest status is naturally the king, followed by the big and small managers who are responsible for all aspects of affairs, such as the Fraser level, and then there are soldiers, miners and other people who can go out to fight and work, they are considered civilians in the Diagonal District, and the lowest are slaves.
Slaves were the vast majority of the Diagonal Districts, but they were the most difficult and lowly class, they had to bear all the heavy work in the base, serving the king, the administrators, and the commoners, and the resources they received were only enough to survive, and if they were unlucky, they could be executed by the superior people, and no one cared about their lives or deaths.
After all, even the administrators were casually executed by the king, and the lives of slaves were even less concerned.
Corresponding to the ranks, each tier also has different resources. Slaves received the fewest and commoners were fed, while the Administrator and the King had more resources and had the power to distribute the production of the mother.
In addition, Fraser also talked about the history of the diagonal area, the situation when fighting with the shelter, the types of mother machine production, etc., so that Feng Chen and Liu Jing had a general understanding of the diagonal area.
After hearing this, Feng Chen's brows furrowed. In addition to the limited material conditions, the social structure of the shelter is relatively modern and civilized, while the diagonal area is ...... It's still a slave society, full of ignorance and darkness! No wonder Fraser was coming over.
Then, Liu Jing said, "It's really a dark place...... No wonder you're running here. β
Feng Chen: ...... Is this a spiritual spirit?
Fraser said, "I don't feel dark, the main thing is that I'm afraid...... "He paused, and said with some worry: "That's all I think about now, what are you going to do with me?" β
Although sending Feng Chen back can be regarded as a meritorious service, Fraser is also afraid that the shelter will turn its face and not recognize people!
Liu Jing knew his worries and said, "When it is confirmed that you have indeed not killed our people, you will be free again, but until then, I will lock you up here." During this period, your basic benefits can be guaranteed. β
Fraser looked a little disappointed by this answer, nodded and said, "Okay." β
Liu Jing stood up and said, "If you still think of anything, you can directly talk to the guards and ask them to report it." β
Liu Jing just said it casually, but Fraser actually slapped his head and said, "I really remember something!" β
"What is it?" Liu Jing asked.
"It's about the king. There was a room in the corner of the king's great hall, and the door was made of iron, and the king never allowed anyone to enter. But sometimes there was a wailing in the room, and sometimes there was the sound of the king's cursing. And every time we went to the king in the main hall, the king came out of that room. I suspect that there must be something strange in the room, maybe some treasure is hidden. I think you can pay attention. Fraser said.
Liu Jing nodded and said, "We'll pay attention." β
Then, she and Feng Chen walked out of the room, and Feng Chen gave Fraser a reassuring look when he closed the door, but he didn't know if the person who saved his life had seen it.
After walking along the passage for some distance, Liu Jing asked, "What do you think of his words?" β
Feng Chen thought about it and said: "There is definitely something wrong with their so-called king, his fingers shoot out black air currents and kill people, this is too unscientific, at least there must be a magic wand!" I think the guy who controls Jing Xingchi's body may be that king. β
Liu Jing raised her eyebrows: "Science? Magic wand? β
"Well, it's just not reasonable." Feng Chen said: "Manipulating Jing Xingchi's body, the corpse frenzy in the base, and the king full of strange things, it is difficult not to make people think of it. β
Liu Jing didn't bother with Feng Chen's strange words, and said, "I also think that Wang has a problem. β
Having said that, Liu Jing didn't have much worry on her face, probably thinking that even if that king had strange abilities, she wouldn't have decisive power. However, Feng Chen was different, he knew such a thing as magic. Judging from the performance of that king, it is a little unreasonable to say that it is not magic, and that king may still be a necromancer, so he can control the dead corpse or something, this kind of role is nothing on the battlefield with ten thousand cannons, but if he hides in the shadows to make trouble, it will be a big trouble, not to mention anything else, as long as he repeats the means used on Jing Xingchi, manipulates other people's bodies to blend into the shelter, and assassinates a few people.
Feng Chen felt that he needed to remind Liu Jing: "Uh, Liu Jing, I think you need to pay attention to safety, if that king controls someone's body again, you will be in danger!" β
"Well, that's right." Liu Jing nodded as if she remembered, and said: "But the most dangerous thing is you, you may be the weakest one in the entire shelter, but you are still being targeted by the other party - no!" Be sure to strengthen your guards! β
"Can we not mention that I'm the weakest one?" Feng Chen protested weakly.
But it's a pity that Liu Jing was already immersed in her own world at this time, choosing a guard for Feng Chen, and didn't hear his words at all. Seeing this, Feng Chen had no choice but to shrug his shoulders helplessly.
Liu Jing, who was deeply worried, directly sent Feng Chen to room 5901 and asked him not to go out before dealing with the affairs of the base, like a worried old mother. Feng Chen felt embarrassed while worrying about his weak chicken. Lying on the bed, he began to wonder if he could find a way to improve his physical fitness in the mother machine.
At this moment, there was a gentle knock on the door, Feng Chen jumped out of bed to open the door, and the moment he opened the door, he remembered that Liu Jing had just told him not to open the door.
He lowered his head and saw a small figure, it was Tang Doudou.
Tang Doudou's big eyes met Feng Chen, and his face suddenly turned red: "I saw that Sister Liu sent you back, so I came over to take a look, there was a big battle in the base todayββ"
Feng Chen's heart suddenly warmed, although he was weak, he was also cared about!
He laughed, suddenly slapped his head, and said, "I have already built the mechanical leg, and it is placed in the infirmary, I saw it just now." β
The little girl nodded seriously, and raised her voice again: "I didn't come to see you for the mechanical legs!" β
Tang Doudou usually looked cold, but suddenly showed the side of caring about others, which looked really interesting, Feng Chen smiled and said, "Mmmm, I know!" Not for the mechanical legs β that's right! What about Lin Weiwei? β
"She went to help when it was on TV, and maybe she's busy now."
"TV broadcast? What's going on? β
Subsequently, Feng Chen learned from Tang Doudou's mouth about Chen Mingyue's actions today, and he listened to it while groaning in his heart, this is a live broadcast! Although there is no live footage, and there is no expert commentary, this is also a live broadcast! And Chen Mingyue, who is always lazy, did it!
People, as long as there are conditions, they will always shine!
