Chapter 379 When John Wick becomes The Matrix

Smith No. 1 followed the mechanical octopus, and Li Ming was not idle either.

He went to John's house and found that the building had long been deserted, as was the Continental Hotel in New York, with only zombies wandering around.

Using Gotham Madness's biological detection skills, Li Ming found a densely populated place underground in New York and rushed there.

It seems that this was once a subway tunnel, but now it has been transformed into a temporary shelter, and there are many machine gun fire points.

Li Ming activated the Myers Spider's invisibility ability and wandered among the crowd. He found that most of the people here were the same as the people he encountered, including Seifer and others. They were fully armed and ready to fight at any time.

He slowly walked to the command center of the shelter and suddenly saw two familiar people.

Aurelio.

When Li Ming came to this world for the first time, he asked Aurelio about the location of John's house.

Charon, the receptionist of the Continental Hotel, is also a top killer in his own right.

However, he did not appear rashly, but waited until Charon was alone.

"What happened, Charon?"

Charon was startled when he heard the voice, and was even more surprised when he saw Li Ming's face clearly.

"Mr. Li?"

He quickly looked around and found that no one was paying attention, so he whispered: "You are not suitable to be here, sir."

"They're looking for you!"

Charon's words made Li Ming's heart lift.

"Who's looking for me?"

"matrix!"

Charon then told Li Ming what happened.

Three months ago, Matrix Corporation announced the establishment of shelters around the world. Although no one in charge of this company has ever been seen in public, the name of the shelter has attracted the vast majority of survivors to join.

At that time, the military forces of various countries were inexplicably disintegrated, the human government had collapsed, the High Table had lost its dominance, and everyone regarded the Matrix Corporation as the ark of salvation.

But soon someone escaped from the Matrix in New York, saying that it was not a shelter at all, but a place ruled by machines.

All human consciousness has been uploaded to the matrix, and their memories have been erased to live in the virtual world, while their identities have become biological batteries and raw materials for building virtual worlds.

Human beings themselves are also a resource.

The exposed Matrix Company no longer pretends to be a company, and sends out mechanical octopuses everywhere to search for the remaining human survivors. Only by surrendering can they survive.

Compared to the broken real world, some people are more accepting of the virtual world, and instead flock to the Matrix Corporation.

Of course, there were some who couldn't accept it, so they united and formed a human resistance army to get rid of machine rule.

But under the high-tech mechanical octopus army, even if the human resistance army is mostly composed of killers, they can only survive.

At this time, another condition came from Matrix Company. As long as one person is handed over or his information is revealed, the remaining humans can be let go.

And this person is Li Ming.

However, Li Ming has not been in this world for a long time. Although Li Ming has gained so much reputation in the world of killers and is very famous, in fact, even Gao Tai Table knows very little about his real information.

"Don't you want to hand me over in exchange for a chance to survive?"

Li Ming asked strangely, because he found that Charon didn't seem to have any bad thoughts, but was vaguely happy about his arrival.

"The rulers' promises cannot be trusted, sir."

Charon said seriously.

"Even if the people hiding outside can survive, they will still live under the threat of machines, and... there are many people we know in the matrix."

Li Ming understood: "Winston?"

Charon nodded.

"The goal of the human resistance is not to survive, but to rescue humans from the hands of machines."

Indeed, if people outside give up resistance, it will be equivalent to giving up the lives of so many people in the matrix.

No matter which world we are in, even if we are in the end of the world, there are always some people who persist.

But Li Ming knew that although Charon and others were determined, they were destined to fail because their opponents were not the machines they imagined, but reincarnators like him.

Last time, Wang Hu was only a second-level reincarnator who caused a turmoil in the killer world, let alone a sixth-level reincarnation.

Seeing that Li Ming had no understanding of what happened after he left, Charon asked: "Mr. Li Ming, is Matrix Company from the extraordinary world you mentioned before?"

"That's it."

Li Ming then remembered that last time, in order to trick Gao Tai Zuo to help him kill the group of reincarnations, he had made up a background of an extraordinary world. Unexpectedly, it had come true now.

He rolled his eyes and sighed: "Last time I stopped the invasion of the supernatural world. I thought they had given up, but I didn't expect them to come back."

"You are right, they will not give up."

"Now that they have taken over the real world, they are looking for me not for anything else but to further declare war!"

Li Ming's words pushed him away.

Either way, he definitely doesn’t stick to the pan.

And also revealed a key piece of information to Charon.

declare war?

Charon's eyes suddenly lit up.

It must be an even match to declare war.

he asked slightly excitedly. "Sir, can you help us fight the Matrix?"

"Of course, just like I did last time." Li Ming replied with a smile.

"But first, the news of my arrival must not be revealed, otherwise the matrix will be prepared."

"of course."

Charon seemed to see the hope of victory, and then he took Li Ming to his small room.

"Please wait a moment, I'll call the commander." Li Ming nodded, and out of boredom, he observed Charon's room.

It was very narrow, with a small bed and a desk piled with books, but this was already a luxurious single room in an underground shelter. On the way Li Ming walked over, he saw that many people could only set up tents, and some even had no shortage of floor space. Sleeping people.

The most conspicuous thing on the desk is a picture frame with a photo of Charon and Winston.

Li Ming has watched the spin-off series of "John Wick" and knows that Winston and Charon met as early as when Winston was still working as a liar.

Not long after, Charon returned to the room, bringing with him a bald man.

"Bowery King, the underground king of New York." Charon introduced.

But Bowery waved his hand, shook his head and said, "New York is gone, where is the king?"

Then he stared at Li Ming: "Are you one of those people that Fake is looking for?"

"Wizard, I know you, but I have never met you before."

Wizard is Li Ming's killer name in this world.

Bowery spoke bluntly: "Can you really help us overthrow the Matrix?"

"Just..." He looked Li Ming up and down, "Are you alone?"

"You are the only one who knows me." Li Ming smiled.

Bowery didn't dwell on it too much: "No matter what, it's always better to have more helpers."

Anyway, Li Ming and Matrix are obviously enemies, and the enemy of their enemy is their friend.

"So what exactly is going on in the matrix?" Li Ming asked, "Have you ever understood it?"

"We've basically figured it out."

To Li Ming's expectation, their intelligence work was done well.

"I asked my homeless men to seek refuge in the Matrix, and they gave us a lot of information."

Bowery introduced.

"There is a virtual and real world inside the matrix. When human consciousness is uploaded into it, the original memory will be erased and a life will start again."

"But there are still quite a few people who can retain their memories. Of course, they are basically the bastards who took the initiative to surrender to the Matrix."

Bowery expressed his disdain for those people.

"Uploading consciousness to the Matrix requires brain-computer operation. At the beginning, I used the intelligence of my subordinates to grab a few, but now my subordinates in the Matrix have either been eliminated or have rebelled."

"I've already guessed it. With the luxurious feast in the virtual world, who would want to go back to the real world to eat mice?"

"The group of mechanical octopuses raised by Fa Ke not only eliminated the survivors, but also destroyed most of the food supplies."

He sneered twice and felt a little lucky: "Fortunately, the virus created by those idiots at Gaotai Table is only effective on humans, otherwise we wouldn't even be able to eat rat meat."

No wonder it has only been three months since the large-scale biochemical crisis broke out, and the lives of the survivors have become so difficult. It turns out that the reincarnators are still starving them of food.

Li Ming thought.

However, he was a little surprised. It was not surprising that the reincarnator found him, after all, he was so high-profile last time.

But since he hasn't appeared after so long, the reincarnators must have identified him as a suspect, so why are the survivors still left behind?

He didn't believe that this underground shelter could really block the detection methods of the reincarnators.

So this group of reincarnators must have other purposes, and the answer is most likely in the matrix.

"Do you have any plans?" Li Ming asked.

"Plan? Of course we have a plan." Bowery smiled. "Although the matrix is ​​a virtual world, there are many special people who are not of the same mind as them. We got help from one of them, and she is..."

"Prophet?" Li Ming spoke first.

"You know?" Bowery was surprised.

Li Ming made an excuse casually: "Don't forget, I am also a person in the extraordinary world."

But it was actually because he had seen The Matrix.

"Oh, too."

Bowery thought it right and continued.

"The prophet told us that there is a savior who can save mankind, but I think more. Maybe the savior can also help us overthrow the machine."

Li Ming said with a strange expression: "Don't tell me, the savior is... John Wick?"

"It seems you already knew." Bowery nodded.

I don’t know, I just know Keanu Reeves.

Li Ming thought to himself.

"John also entered the matrix, but he was captured, but now he has no previous memory."

"In the Matrix, John Wick is called Neo and he is a programmer."

"What we have to do now is to sneak into the matrix through the brain computer and wake up John, no, Neo."

Bowery's words made Li Ming's expression become increasingly weird.

"Let me guess, your name is Bowery in the Matrix, too?"

Li Ming rubbed his forehead and probed.

"Yes, there must be a code name." Bowery nodded matter-of-factly, "I have a new name, Morpheus."

Li Ming didn't know if this was expected by the Paradise Reincarnation Team. Different characters played by the same actor, after touching the key props, caused a magical reaction in the whole world.

Commonly known as, cross-talk.

"What's the name of this shelter?"

Li Ming asked again, although he already had the answer in his mind.

Bowery answered simply and matter-of-factly.

"Zion."
