Fault Utopia

Chapter 290 Book

Sun Jack was flying in the air, looking at the crowds of people holding various LED umbrellas on the streets below. He suddenly felt that perhaps the people in the metropolis were not all abstract.

Normal people also have such situations. The reason why it is so rare to meet them is that they change early after suffering a loss once.

The entire metropolis is like a big dye vat. Anyone who enters it will be dyed black, otherwise they will not be able to survive.

They were already dark, and it was too difficult to pull them out again.

Before, when Li Jie Ke wanted to mobilize the people of Metropolis to help him fight against the Holy Grail, there was no hope at all. Even if Solomon was not there, he would still be betrayed by others. The tolerance rate was too low.

Half an hour later, when the huge Buddha head appeared in the distance, Sun Jie Ke lit two more cigarettes as soon as he landed.

"Why are you so addicted? If you keep smoking like this, you'll get lung cancer," Tapai at the side reminded.

"With the current level of technology, why should we be afraid of lung cancer? If that happens, we can just get a new lung."

Sun Jieke stood in the rain and smoked for a while. Suddenly he thought of something and asked directly, "Where is the matrix? Send me her current coordinates."

The matrix wasn't too difficult to find. As someone who didn't even have a system, she couldn't even take the subway, and she couldn't go anywhere except around Statue Street.

Sun Jack was found in the attic of the church. There were two yoga mats in the dusty attic, not even a cover. This was the temporary residence of the Matrix.

It was Linda Linda who helped her find this place, otherwise she would have to sleep in an unfinished building in Queens at night.

At this moment, she was wearing nothing but a tattered white T-shirt. She ate the nutritional cream in her hand bite by bite, looking ahead blankly.

Sun Jieke glanced at her lower body and asked in confusion, "Where are your genitals?"

"Sold it. I got my face back first. The doctor said that if I don't have a face for a long time, I'm prone to cognitive confusion. Anyway, I can't sell it for a high price without a face." Matrix answered calmly. He was not surprised at all by Sun Jack's arrival.

"How does it taste like the fruit of your own labor?" Sun Jie Ke sat down next to her and asked, looking at her profile.

"Ugh~" Matrix retched when she heard this, but she didn't spit it out and swallowed it back.

Because she was trying hard to hold back vomiting, tears welled up in her eyes. She turned around and looked at Sun Jieke in front of her. Her expression, which had just been tense, collapsed again in an instant. "Sun Jieke, why are you torturing me!"

Sun Jieke suddenly found it a little funny. "Did I torture you? May I ask how did I torture you? Did I torture you? Did I retaliate against you? Did I still abuse you in various ways?"

"Why do you force me to stay in this hopeless hell!" Matrix's hands trembled and her eyes turned red as she said this. It was obvious that she had not had a very good time during this period. It could even be said that it was very difficult, just like Sun Jack who had just entered the metropolis.

"I didn't torture you. This is not hell. This is life. Don't easily define other people's food, clothing, housing and transportation as hell. People in the metropolis have lived like this for thousands of years. Just because you didn't see it in the past doesn't mean it doesn't exist."

Matrix broke down and cried, she knew her memories were all fake, but compared to the days with the Holy Grail, life was just too bitter.

She had been dreaming every night during this period, dreaming that she had returned to the Holy Grail again, and that everything she had experienced before was just a wonderful experience directed by the Game No Life Company. But every time she woke up, the cold ceiling easily destroyed her hope.

Seeing the other person crying, Sun Jack was a little disappointed. He stood up and was about to leave, but Matrix grabbed his sleeve and said, "Don't go!"

"Let go!" Sun Jack's expression suddenly became extremely cold.

Matrix was frightened by Sun Jack's changed face, and immediately let go of her hand. After a while, she said with tears and sobs: "Jack, I really don't want to die, but my life has no meaning. I don't know why I am alive now. I am really in pain."

Sun Jie Ke lifted her up and said, "I'm really confused. Who brought you to this state? Who played you like a monkey? Who treated you like a disposable tool and threw you away after use? Are you a rubber? Are you really not angry at all when others treat you like this? Don't you want revenge at all?"

Hearing this, Matrix stopped crying and looked straight at Sun Jack.

Sun Jie Ke let her go and lifted the rag beside him. Under the rag was a pile of books. These were all books of the dead priest. On the top book were written three big words: Das Kapital.

"If you have no goals in life and don't know why you are living, maybe you should read this. I believe that based on your own experiences during this period, you can find out who is really torturing you and figure out what class you are in now."

After saying that, Sun Jack turned around and left without looking back, leaving the matrix alone in the attic.

This is just an attempt, whether it succeeds or not, he can do it anyway.

Matrix sat there and looked at a pile of books beside her. She had lived in this place for some time, but she had never noticed that there were these paper books under the dusty cloth.

Matrix touched the book. The special touch felt very strange. In her hundreds of years of memory, she had never touched a book. These antiques from the previous era should no longer exist.

She recalled Sun Jack's words and subconsciously turned to the first page. The book was very obscure and difficult to understand, but the Matrix didn't even have a system and there was nothing else to do, so she tried to read on.

As a Matrix who possesses the memory of the Holy Grail, it is not difficult for her to understand the entire book, because she has experienced everything described above, and even done it herself.

It was late at night, but Matrix was still reading. As the day gradually brightened, Matrix stopped turning the pages.

She suddenly realized why she was living in such pain. Who was it that caused it? They were the ones who created her pain!

Matrix's lifeless eyes lit up again, and she began to have a goal in her heart: she wanted revenge!

"Revenge? Is the meaning of my existence just revenge?" Matrix was suddenly stunned. She continued to flip through the books. Except for Das Kapital, she read all the books here.

Her missing cognition, world outlook and everything were gradually filled with something.

The invisible Sun Jack watched everything that happened silently from the side.

"Is it true that only when you are really beaten will you feel the pain?"
