205 The Real Tool
After all, Angelica only had a total of five minutes to move after turning off the power.
Moreover, Angelica could only turn off the alarm system. Hence, the agents would notice her actions. If only she and Morpheus were on the move, they wouldn’t have enough time if they were caught.
After some discussion, it was decided that Morpheus and Angelica would not be the only ones participating in the operation. The people from the other two spaceships would also participate in the operation.
They only had one mission. One of the female captains’ goals was to blow up the power station, while the other ship’s crew was responsible for turning off the backup power supply!
Angelica was the only person who could open the door to the core of the Matrix. She of course had to go directly to the building.
The operation immediately began. Angelica led the Keymaker into the building after the power supply in the city was cut off. Afterward, she followed the Keymaker and went to find the gate where the core was.
However, as soon as they entered the pure white passage that they had seen before, they found Smith waiting for them.
Besides, Smith wasn’t alone. He had brought along countless clones.
[What a troublesome person!]
[Smith is just like a piece of chewing gum that keeps sticking to Angelica. If it wasn’t for Smith’s existence, Angelica would have already cleared the game!]
[That’s right! Smith’s existence is completely unreasonable. He has clearly been destroyed in The Matrix I, but how can he appear in The Matrix II again?!]
[However, the game won’t be challenging without Smith, right?]
The live stream room viewers were discussing the game’s plot and the various problems that Angelica had encountered.
On the other side, Angelica was already engaged in a battle with the many clones of Smith.
As the space in the passage was too small, Angelica couldn’t use many of her superpowers. Hence, she could only have close combat with Smith’s clones.
During the battle, when the Keymaker who had been hiding behind Angelica, saw no one noticed him, he quickly found a key to open a door beside him and left the passage.
Afterward, the Keymaker suddenly came out from another door, and the door was located behind Smith’s clones, which was the place where Angelica was originally going.
Upon seeing it, Angelica started to fight even harder. She had to help the Keymaker attract the attention of the Smith agents so that the Keymaker would have time to find the key to open the door.
Finally, the Keymaker lived up to everyone’s expectations and was worthy of being the man in the Matrix who could open all the doors.
The Keymaker finally put the key into the lock, and the door opened after turning it. However, the sound of the door opening also attracted Agent Smith’s attention.
Taking advantage of Smith’s distraction, Angelica grabbed Morpheus, who was beside her. They then flew directly through the crowd of Smith’s clones, directly entering the opened door.
At the same time, Agent Smith’s clones all pulled out their pistols and started shooting. The Keymaker hurriedly closed the door, but when the door closed, the Keymaker’s body was already hit by countless bullets. He fell to the ground with blood flowing out of his mouth.
Seeing the scene, no matter if it was Angelica or the countless live stream room viewers, they all felt extremely heartbroken.
After all, the Keymaker contributed to everyone, and now he had died so dramatically.
As a result, many live stream room viewers couldn’t help but start to complain.
[I finally understand. The Keymaker is just a tool!]
[Now that he had done his role, so Su Ping designed his death!]
[Su Ping is guilty of the most heinous crime. How can he let the Keymaker die in such a dramatic way when he has helped us so much?!]
[That’s right! Su Ping has no conscience at all!]
[Is Su Ping watching the live stream now? Come out and explain to us what’s going on!]
Of course, Su Ping had no idea what the viewers were saying because he didn’t even watch Angelica’s live stream.
Su Ping had just received an email, and the content of the email represented the attitude of major game development companies around the world toward him.
One could say that Su Ping had become a benchmark in the gaming industry.
No matter how big a game development company was in the world, no matter how rebellious they were, they had to be polite to Su Ping.
The game development companies were planning to make Su Ping a representative of the game industry in this world. They wanted Su Ping to cooperate fairly with every game development company.
In this way, everyone could get Su Ping’s help. Everyone could avoid engaging in a vicious competition to win Su Ping’s favor.
Of course, it was also because many game development companies were jealous of Steam for getting huge benefits while cooperating with Su Ping.
After all, Su Ping had only worked with one game company, Steam, so far. All his games were exclusively released on Steam, which was a big blow to the other game development companies.
Therefore, Su Ping was very busy at the moment. He had to deal with many invitations for cooperation from different game development companies. He was now focusing on making a lot of money.
Su Ping didn’t have much energy to pay attention to Angelica’s live stream.
Angelica was naturally a little sad about the Keymaker’s death.
After all, it was a surreal, immersive experience game. If one stayed in the game world for too long, they might even forget their identity in reality and forget that it was just a game world that Su Ping created.
Under these circumstances, it was natural for people to feel genuine affection for the NPCs and virtual characters present.
However, Angelica also knew that the game wasn’t over yet. So many people sacrificed, and she had also put in so much effort and sweat. Wasn’t it all to end the war between humanity and machines?
Moreover, the scenery that Angelica had seen in Zion was still vivid in her mind. The anticipation in everyone’s eyes was still fresh in her memory.
Finally, Angelica stood in front of the door at the end of the passage. She was going to open the door to the core of the Matrix and then shut down the system of the Matrix.
Angelica would end the war so that all humans could return to live on the surface and become the true owners of this planet.
As the door opened, a ray of light shone on Angelica.
