Chapter 587: The truth about Zion

The Prophet further asked, "You are not the human in this world, are you?"
She had gradually realized the truth, and asked Qiao Li to meet him, just to verify all this.
To this point, Qiao Li no longer covered up, and said straightforwardly:
"Don't you know?"
The prophet smiled helplessly, so many things happened beyond her expectation that there was only such a reasonable explanation.
Qiao Lü sat down opposite the Prophet, watching the growing resistance team outside the window and asked:
"If you are a prophet, you should have foreseen the results."
"You won." The Prophet replied without hesitation. "The mother will collapse, if you continue."
"Why come to me then?"
Jolly has never regarded the prophet as an object she can believe. She is a program in the mother's body, and even is called the mother of the mother.
"For negotiation."
The prophet did not play tricks anymore, and in the face of an unpredictable person, she had no capital to turn around.
"Our work is more efficient and easier to manage than humans. If your purpose is to conquer, it is not necessary for humans to replace us. As you can see, human civilization will only continue to produce chaos. What about machine civilization to help you manage? "
Qiao Li couldn't help but be surprised. The other party proposed a surrender condition, and did not mean to resist stubbornness.
The Prophet further proposed: "If you agree to this and stop interfering with the normal operation of the mother, we will be loyal to you. Is it better for you than rebuilding human civilization?"
I have to say that this is a very tempting condition. It is not the first time that Wandering Earth has accepted a mechanical life form. This is true of both Transformers and the Yoyo Army. It is really not completely impossible.
Jolly admired, "You are smarter than I thought."
"I just acted on the predicted results," the Prophet replied, "the final result still depends on your decision."
Qiao Li didn't express his attitude directly, and took a sip of tea and asked:
"What will happen to Zion if we leave the mother?"
The Prophet replied: "The machine army will destroy Zion, and then the savior will choose 23 people from the mother to rebuild Zion. The same thing happened 6 times."
Sure enough, Zion exists because the machine allows it to exist, otherwise it would not be able to last for so long.
"Why do you have to do so much trouble?" Qiao Li asked curiously.
"Because no matter how perfect the mother is, there will always be people who choose to resist. Although a minority who refuses to accept the mother, if it is not controlled, it will increase the possibility of disaster. We want to give these people a choice, even if they are only vague I feel like I have a choice. "
"You mean Zion?"
"Zion is a reserve we have established for human beings. Leaving these people in the mother's body will only create greater chaos, as happened today. But as long as they leave a place to go, they will not Causing even more serious disasters. Fires that burn in one place are easier to put out than those scattered around. "
Reservations, there is no more appropriate statement. The people of Zion thought that they were free after escaping from their mother's body, but in fact they were kept in captivity like cattle.
It's just a change from cage to captivity. This freedom is too cheap.
"What about the savior?" Qiao Li continued to ask.
"If Zion is a desperate city, in the end they will still choose to do it all alone. Large-scale resistance is still inevitable. So give them a hope and let them choose to wait for a miracle instead of fighting for themselves. The Savior is a perfect reason It is not necessary for everyone to believe in this system. As long as some people are willing to resist the order, humanity cannot truly unite. "
With that said, Qiao Li finally fully understood. Neo was indeed selected or randomly selected. It does not matter who the savior is. It is not that humans need a savior, but that machines need humans to have a savior!
From beginning to end, the prophets cleverly used the prophecy of the Redeemer to convince humanity that as long as it waits, there will be miracles. Even if it cannot be believed by everyone, it is enough to cause human division.
Believing in this prophecy, Murphy repeatedly violated orders and disrupted the layout of Commander Locke. Just a word of the prophet can make him sacrifice anyone without hesitation, which is exactly what the Savior's prophecy is for.
As for where the power of Neo, the savior, came from? There is no doubt that the authority given by the prophet allows more people to believe that he will be the savior, and then gives up autonomous thinking and gives everything to the prophecy, in fact, let the prophet control all this behind the scenes.
"It's wonderful."
Qiao Lu couldn't help clapping, this is simply the art of domination. Everyone in Zion thought he had the right to choose, but in fact all the prophets expected it.
Murphys, Neo, Trinity, and everyone were her pawns, thinking that she had taken a step forward, as everyone knew was propelled behind the scenes by prophets.
"They all thought they had made a choice, but in fact it was all your choice." Chory said admirably.
The prophet said unabashedly: "Human beings do not need true freedom, but only to feel free."

Underground City Zion
Morpheus took Neo to a prison where it wasn't humans but the mechanical squid seized by Zion—the sentry.
Capturing sentries is not easy. Their mechanical tentacles can easily twist steel, and they can emit lasers from their eyes. Even the armor of the spacecraft can be cut.
Humans had to cut all its tentacles ~ EbookFREE.me ~ and destroy its eyes in order to seize the sentinel and hold it in this prison for research.
Murphy brought Neo to a sentinel and said politely to him:
"Try to destroy it, Neo."
Neo was puzzled by this and asked puzzledly, "It's in a cage, what am I going to do ..."
"Not with your hands, with your brain." Murphy said with a finger stroke on his head.
"It's impossible! It's not in the mother. How can I use my brain to destroy it?"
If it is inside the mother body, it can indeed break the restrictions of physical rules, and you can destroy the object without using your hands.
But here is Zion. In the mother's body, Rio is the savior. In reality, it is just an ordinary person. How can an ordinary person achieve such a thing?
