As time went on, the audience began to understand the storyline of the movie. When the Matrix was born, there was a person, a hacker, who could change the Matrix at his will.

In Zion, the last human city, there were a few people who had been born in the Matrix, and they were all released by this hacker.

After his death, the oracle prophesied that he would return and lead humans out of the Matrix to regain freedom.

The following plot was simple. Neo recovered his strength and got familiar with the programs in the Matrix while strengthening himself with it being the foundation.

Obviously, the rules in the Matrix were different from those in the real world. The agents could borrow any human body in the Matrix and take full use of the rules in the Matrix. In the Matrix, they were god-like existences.

Unkillable, able to change into anybody, could bend rules and control time; they could do anything unimaginable to humans.

Humans entering the Matrix would die if they encountered the agents. Obviously, it was difficult to free humankind.

However, they must enter the Matrix to save their minds first since only rescuing the physical bodies was a meaningless job as the bodies were like corpses without consciousness.

By now, the audience began to have a general idea of the worldview expressed in the movie. For the cultivators and warriors, the humans in this movie had gone off track with their technological advancements. These humans put all their strength and energy into developing spiritual artifacts instead of improving their own bodies. In the world shown in the movie, the humans created many spiritual artifacts with extremely high intelligence, which eventually sent humans themselves into Hell.

Now, this was the hackers’ path to redemption.

This wasn’t an ordinary movie discussing hackers. It was about the humans’ revolution at the end of the world.

The technology level in the movie was too high for the cultivators to reach with their current research level, but it didn’t stop them from understanding this system.

For most of them, they just watched it as an ordinary movie since not all of them studied spiritual artifacts.

However, this movie shocked them more than anything else, and they watched from different lenses.

The world shown in the movie was eye-opening! Although the viewers knew that anything could happen in the world, this story still went beyond everyone’s imagination!

Most of them watched the movie with wide-open eyes and mouths from the beginning to the end.

By now, the people in the movie believed that they had found ‘The One’…

They believed that it was time to fight back.

Obviously, this attack was a total failure. Perhaps it would have been fine if no accidents happened. To their surprise, they had a traitor among them.

The traitor was a person who was tired of struggling in fear each day in the end of the world; this person wanted to return to the Matrix as an ignorant ordinary person.

After all, ignorance was a blessing.

Meanwhile, it seemed that Neo wasn’t ‘The One’, at least not yet.

Maybe he had the potential to become ‘The One’, but he was far from that right now. The Matrix changed the program and trapped everyone inside.

Death in the Matrix meant death in the real world, and many people died in this battle. Except for Neo and the heroine, no one escaped from the Matrix. Even their leader, Morpheus, was trapped inside while he tried to slow down the agents.

This system version of the movie was different from the original version.

In the original version, people would instantly die if they were unplugged when their awareness was still inside the Matrix.

However, in the system version, the people’s awareness would slowly disappear in the Matrix while their physical bodies would suffer brain death.

Seeing the traitor unplug several people and causing them brain death, Mo Xian and other faint-hearted girls were scared.

Immediately, they put down their virtual reality headset and found that they could still go back. Then, they reconnected again.

Then, they disconnected and connected again and again several times. As a result, some girls beside Mr. Fang kept disappearing and appearing.

Everyone gaped at what they were doing, and they were speechless.

Mr. Fang was exasperated. “Damn it. Are you dumb or not!”

“…”

“Does it mean that my feeling of realness in this world is the result of a similar virtual reality technology?!” While watching the movie, Li Haoran appraised his senses.

“Impossible!” The Xichi Spiritual Master said, “My vital soul can leave my body already, and the false feelings of the physical body can’t fool me!”

Even if she were trapped inside a fantasy array, she still couldn’t tell the subtle difference between the real and the fake.

Just like when Wu Zong was trapped in the fantasy array in a celestial relic, he also knew that he was inside a fantasy array.

“Even Neo, who is ‘The One’, can’t distinguish the difference, right? I’m afraid that it isn’t only a reaction of the physical body.”

However, after awakening, Neo never doubted that the world inside the Matrix was fake, and he still had a subtle feeling of dreaming even though he was clearly awake.

When they watched the great battle between Fei Peng and Chong Lou, everyone including Gu Tingyun who had much more life experience and higher cultivation strength had thought it was real.

They didn’t see that it was fake and virtual reality.

What was more was that the higher-level cultivators could leave a trace of their awareness in the real world to keep watching the surroundings while playing the game; it felt the same as when they released a streak of their vital soul into a mystic realm to explore while their physical bodies remained outside.

“Virtual reality is supposed to be like this,” Lan Mo speculated, “But the things in the shop must be different. If it is the same thing as in the movie…”

“We would have died many times.”

In the virtual reality world in the Matrix, the death of awareness meant the death of the physical body. If the games in the shop had the same mechanism as the movie, the people here would have died dozens or hundreds of times by now. After all, each of them had died many times in the games.

“…” The people instantly fell silent.

“Watch the movie… continue watching the movie!” They immediately changed the topic.

At this moment, all of them had witnessed the horrifying abilities of the agents who could change from any people in this world and possessed unimaginable strength.

No attacks were effective on them. Even Morpheus, the hacker who had elevated his abilities beyond the limit of ordinary people in this digital world, could do nothing to the agent in front of them named Smith.

“How can he be so strong?!” Song Qingfeng exclaimed in astonishment, “He feels nothing just standing there while taking the beating?!”

There wasn’t even a scratch on his skin.

After accepting everything when they reached and comprehended the horrifying truth, they felt a thrill and enjoyment as they watched the movie.

The combat style of the hackers in the movie went beyond the imagination of the audience.
