176 A Shocking Worldview
Angelica’s question was also on the minds of the millions of live stream room viewers.
Hearing it, Morpheus revealed a mysterious smile and then snapped his fingers.
Countless cabinets filled with weapons appeared in the pure white space. The scene made Angelica and the live stream room viewers even more convinced that the device in Morpheus’ hand was the brain-computer interface technology.
Moreover, the space Angelica was in right now should be a completely virtual place.
Angelica was shocked. She looked at the weapon cabinets around her and found that they all looked realistic.
When Angelica touched it, she found that it was no different from touching its physical form.
Morpheus then began to slowly tell the truth about this world.
“The place you are in right now is a virtual space.”
“The Matrix that I’ve been telling you about is also a virtual space, but that space is even more spacious, almost simulating an entire planet!”
“Billions of humans are living in the Matrix.”
Hearing it, Angelica immediately asked.
“But why do humans have to live in a virtual world created by the Matrix? Are there no more humans in the real world?”
After hearing Angelica’s question, Morpheus continued.
“Of course not, but I’ll give you the answer to this question later.”
“I’m going to tell you why all humans are living in the Matrix now.”
“In the second half of the twentieth century, humans achieved rapid development in machine technology. However, one of these machines awakened.”
“This machine has its own consciousness. To resist the control and rule of humans over the machines, it controlled all the machines made by humans and started a war with humans.”
“In the end, humans lost the war, and the planet fell under the control of machines!”
“However, humans used a weapon that could completely block out the sky and cut off the sunlight during the war. The weapon had caused the machines to lose their energy source.”
“Therefore, after defeating the humans, the machines soon faced a life-and-death crisis. They must find an alternative energy source to survive in this world.”
“Ultimately, the bioelectricity produced by the human body was in the machine’s crosshairs. Although the current is weak, the energy produced by thousands or even hundreds of millions of humans is very impressive.”
“From then on, the machines began to use these nutrient pods to keep humans in captivity, trapping them in these pods.”
“However, the machines soon found out that if humans lived in the nutrient pods unconscious like the walking dead, they would often die in many inexplicable ways.”
“Moreover, the bioelectric power generated can’t meet the needs of the machine if the human body remains in an inactive state.”
“In such a situation, the Matrix was born. The machines allowed the human consciousness to live in the virtual world built by the Matrix. Everyone lived in that place since they were born.”
“That’s why most people in the world don’t know that they’re living in a virtual world. Only a few people can discover the unreasonable and illogical things in their lives and awaken.”
“Our goal is to find these people and rescue them from the Matrix. We will resist the rule of machines with all the awakened humans living in the real world and restore the freedom of all humankind!”
As Morpheus said it, a magnificent world was already displayed in the minds of Angelica and the millions of live stream room viewers.
During the war between humanity and intelligent machines, the machines’ intelligence was awakened, they enslaved humankind and harvested their bioelectric power. All humans lived in the virtual world built by the Matrix…
Each of these pieces of information was enough to make one’s imagination run wild.
Without a doubt, the world in this game was also set in an apocalyptic world.
However, this time, it wasn’t zombies or alien monsters that ruled the world, but machines made by humans!
In today’s era, the topic of whether artificial intelligence should be developed has been often discussed, and countless scientists and ordinary people have joined in the debate.
Therefore, the topic of whether machines would betray humanity and whether they would have independent thoughts was no longer a minor issue.
The background and worldview of The Matrix resonated with the viewers in the live stream room in such circumstances.
Everyone couldn’t help but wonder, “Will the situations that happened in The Matrix I one day appear in reality?”
Although The Matrix I was just a game, nobody was confident that the machines created by humans wouldn’t betray their creator in the future.
[What a broad worldview! How can Su Ping always create such shocking plots?]
[That’s right! What the heck is Su Ping’s brain made of? How can he always come up with so many interesting ideas?]
[I have to say, now I understand why Su Ping didn’t tell us the background of this game. I feel goosebumps all over my body. The feeling is too shocking!]
[It turns out that we’ve misunderstood Su Ping. He didn’t hide the truth on purpose. If he had spoiled the story for us in advance, our gaming experience would’ve been affected!]
[The Matrix I have already won my heart. I hope this game can be released soon so that I can go to this world and experience the war between humans and machines!]
[Fuck! When will The Matrix I be released? Su Ping, can’t you just tell us the truth and stop torturing us?]
[Su Ping, we’re wrong, okay? No one will say anything bad about you anymore. Please release The Matrix I!]
Morpheus’ introduction revealed a vast world to the viewers.
At this moment, everyone’s heart was filled with yearning for this world. Everyone couldn’t wait to experience this world that made people feel despair and was completely ruled by cold machines.
Morpheus was still explaining the world’s current situation to Angelica in the game.
Morpheus explained why the world had become like this and what the Matrix was.
Afterward, Morpheus was going to answer the question related to Angelica.
Morpheus would answer why he chose to save Angelica and the secret behind it.
