Chapter 5 Space
Through countless life-and-death crises, she transformed from a quiet young girl into a high-level Ability User who dared to fight and kill.
Each daily upgrade was earned with her life.
She went from an ordinary member of the guard team to a squad leader, then a captain, fiercely protecting the base and her own kind as if it were her home.
At that time, she felt she was great, and that she, like everyone else, was protecting the last embers of humanity.
Thinking back, Jiang You felt like such an idiot, having been deceived by them for so long.
In the end, she was even ambushed and sent to Forbidden Island to be an Experiment Subjects.
Only her family knew about her extraordinary self-healing ability.
And only her family could have drugged her when she was completely defenseless.
What nurturing grace?
What blood kinship?
What mutual support among kin?
All nonsense!
Thinking of the past, she wished she could slap herself.
The most important thing was to get the bracelet first.
But she had no idea where Li Tianming had put the bracelet before.
If she directly tore off the facade, it would inevitably lead to more trouble and waste time.
It was better to play along.
Therefore, after her rebirth, when her uncle again tried to persuade her to marry Boss Wang's son,
she didn't firmly refuse, precisely to get this bracelet back.
As for the four million in betrothal gifts, it was just icing on the cake.
However, Jiang You stared at the blood on the bracelet for a long time, yet there was no reaction. Could it be that only her cousin could use this bracelet?
Thinking of this, her expression turned cold.
If something from my Jiang family cannot be used by me, I would rather smash it.
No sooner had she thought this,
the next second, she felt the bracelet in her hand become scalding hot.
A piece of skin peeled off from where the blood had dripped, revealing a rosy, translucent jade color.
But it was only this much. Jiang You thought for a moment, then squeezed her finger again, smearing more blood over the bracelet.
Subsequently, the bracelet began to shed its grayish-white outer shell, like a snake shedding its skin. A few seconds later, the entire bracelet had completely transformed.
Unlike its original pale and gray appearance, the bracelet was now entirely crimson, like a high-quality blood jade.
Jiang You was somewhat puzzled. The bracelet she had seen in Li Yingyue's hand in her previous life was clearly in its pre-shedding state.
Why did it turn into a high-quality blood jade bracelet after absorbing her blood?
Was it because of the Jiang family bloodline?
Jiang You stared at the bracelet on her hand. Where was the space?
Where was the promised space?
She couldn't feel anything.
As this thought flashed, her vision suddenly went black, and when she opened her eyes again, she was standing on a patch of black, barren Ground.
Jiang You looked around.
Behind her was a small three-room cottage with a fence fence.
The house was clearly abandoned, and the fence was crooked and falling apart.
She walked into the yard and found a dry well inside.
Where is this?
A space?
Could it be that this bracelet isn't just a simple storage space, but one that can be entered!
Looking down, the bracelet on her hand was gone, replaced by a red mole on the inside of her right wrist, as vivid as cinnabar.
She had never had a red mole on her wrist.
So there was only one explanation: this mole was the bracelet.
But if this bracelet could transform into a mole and hide, why was it so conspicuously worn on her wrist in her previous life?
And if this space could accommodate living beings, why had Li Yingyue never put living beings into it?
Li Yingyue only had space abilities and was timid, so she always accompanied her when collecting supplies.
Therefore, she was certain that Li Yingyue's space could not store living beings.
Jiang You tried, silently chanting 'out, out' in her mind.
Indeed, the next second she was back in her own room.
She was both surprised and delighted; the bracelet's function far exceeded her expectations.
Since there was land, did she even need to think about what to do next?
It meant she could plant things!
She quickly returned to the space and entered the small house to investigate.
Of the three rooms, one was a main hall, one was a bedroom, and the outermost room was a kitchen.
The furniture in the bedroom and main hall was mostly ruined; a light touch from her hand turned it into dust.
In the kitchen, only a bare stove made of packed earth stood there, along with a rusted iron pot that crumbled into pieces with a gentle squeeze.
She was about to open the wooden cabinet when, as soon as the cabinet door was pulled open, she heard a crash.
The cabinet collapsed, stirring up a cloud of dust.
“Cough cough!”
Jiang You waved away the dust in the air and stepped back a few paces.
She then found a cellar entrance behind the kitchen.
The cellar was pitch black, with only layers of steps disappearing into the darkness visible.
Jiang You took out a flashlight, turned it on, and used its light to descend the winding stairs.
But once she actually entered, she realized it couldn't simply be described as a cellar.
Beneath the small house was an enormous underground warehouse.
It was incredibly vast; the underground warehouse in the space was as large as the Ground level!
To be safe, Jiang You first tested the space's storage capacity.
After repeatedly trying to move things in and out of the space and successfully mastering the technique,
she placed two ice creams, one on the Ground level of the space and one in the underground warehouse.
When she re-entered the space a few hours later, she found that the ice cream placed on the Ground had completely melted into a liquid.
However, the ice cream in the underground warehouse was exactly as it had been when she put it in, completely undamaged.
This proved that the time flow on the Ground level of the space and in the cellar were different!
Time flowed normally on the Ground, but time in the underground warehouse was almost static!
What did static time mean?
At this thought, Jiang You couldn't help but breathe rapidly.
This meant she wouldn't have to worry about expiration dates when stockpiling supplies!
She could even put some cooked meals in the underground storage and simply take them out when it was time to eat!
The space was about several hundred mu in size, with a transparent barrier like glass at its edges.
She reached out and gently touched it; the barrier felt soft like jelly, but she couldn't break through.
After staying in the space for about half an hour, she felt a bit dizzy and quickly left the space.
After repeated experiments, Jiang You discovered that she couldn't stay in the space for long periods.
However, the small goldfish in the goldfish bowl she placed in the space remained alive.
It was likely that intelligent beings like humans couldn't stay in the space for extended periods, but small animals could live there.
She would confirm this later if she had the chance.
Jiang You sighed, realizing her wish to stockpile supplies and retire in the space had fallen through.
Now that she had the space, did she even need to think about what to do next?
Of course, it was to stockpile supplies!
Jiang You took out a small notebook and first jotted down all the supplies she needed to store in her mind.
Then she opened her phone, searching and adding to the list as she went.
