Daydream Theatre - C31
So everything was under the control of the Mr Eloi!
As the voice transmission, I couldn’t help but to sincerely praise his schemes. No matter what reason Jiang Xiaowei sought my help for, through these deliberate editing and questioning, we had already conveyed the message to the audience: The reason why Moloch’s program is attractive is only because it has aroused the instincts of humans! If modern people were truly intelligent and kind, shouldn’t they have resisted this kind of violence?
“No, no, of course not!” Jiang Xiaowei was worthy of being Tomoko’s Big Star’s manager, she had recovered her “fighting strength”, “You can’t say it like this, you are trying to confuse the concept. According to you, there can’t be any video games with combat content in them anymore. It’s a reflection of the dark side of humanity! ”
“Hehe, it is obvious that the way you, Moloch, do things is different.” I hope that we can further explore this topic, but the director gave us another instruction, “Ah, good, everyone. Although Moloch’s side is about to trigger the battle, let us relax a little … Come and see White and her daughter! After all, they are also the main stars of our episode. ”
I don’t quite understand the director’s meaning, after all, right now I think that public opinion should be on the opposite side of Moloch. There are many messages saying that the Robot Theater was overdoing it, and every episode is filled with similar violent tasks.
Miss White was surprised, which was no wonder, because they had already been left standing on the side for a long time. Miranda, on the other hand, looked like she didn’t care.
The films in the holographic sphere had all been released long ago, and I was waiting for the director’s instructions on whether to put one down or not. But the director wanted me to ask more questions about their relationship, and he said we could start with the missing father.
“Ms. Miranda, I asked Miss White about her father before. She told me that you two divorced a long time ago?”
Miranda was at a loss of what to do, she turned to her daughter and asked: “Should I answer this question?”
White also did not know what to say now, as the situation with the program was completely outside of her expectations. “Are you talking about my father?”
“Mm. Tell me, you haven’t seen your father since you were young.”
“Yes, they divorced early.”
“Then all these years …” I somewhat understood the director’s intentions. “All these years, it was all because of you and your mother?”
“Yes,” she nodded, still puzzled, “even without a father …”
“But I’m sure you all will have a hard time, won’t you?” I hope to lead them to an answer.
At this time, Miranda stood up and said, “Daughter, you don’t understand your father. His departure also had its own difficulties. You can’t blame him in his entirety … ”
“Oh, I mean,” I said, feeling that this wasn’t quite the right direction. “I mean, have you had a hard time over the years? Even though your father is missing, your mother is still able to bear the heavy burden and painstakingly pull you up to the point where she can educate you to become a pillar of society that is about to enter the Castari. ”
“Of course!” Miss White finally understood what I mean, “All these years, mother has indeed been working very hard. “Although the welfare of our society is getting better and better, but as children grow up…”
“Hmm, you’re right,” I turned towards Miranda. “Single mother must also play the role of father, other than basic daily care, shouldn’t you also do everything in your power to educate White? So how did you do it? You know, a lot of these single mothers gave up in the end. ”
“I,” Miranda didn’t seem to feel that this matter was too difficult, “I’ll just try my best to fulfill her request. Our family is not rich, but what makes me happy is that White has finally fulfilled her wish, she is my pride! ” She kissed her daughter on the cheek.
But I didn’t get the answer I wanted, so I said to myself, “Fellow spectators, let us applaud this great mother! She used her sweat and tears to nurture the talents of the society. In these thirty odd years, she did not feel wronged, so what made her last until today, Ms. Miranda? ”
“What is it?” Of course it’s because she’s my daughter, my only daughter. ”
“Let’s give them another round of applause!” I saw that Miss White’s face was slightly awkward and flushed, as though she was not used to such words. “It must be known that in this era where everyone is obsessed with some kind of theater, it is really difficult to see such a pure and touching relationship between mother and daughter. For decades, they had defeated the hardships of life, trusting each other, relying on each other, helping each other. They are the true warriors who face life head to head, and they are way better than those who rely on substitutes in the Robotics Theatre to kill their way into sexuality! ”
I returned to the “theme,” yes, demeaning the Robotics Theatre was only the first step, but more important, it highlighted the opposite of our program: our program glorifies the true love between people, promotes the spirit of mutual help. If a “love theater” like this is not as good as a “killing theater”, is it not a tragedy for society as a whole?
The director shouted next to my ear, “Well done, Latimer!” Then a vote was immediately cast — are you more in favor of the “Dream Theatre”, which displays the world’s greatest love, or of the “Robot Theater”, which kills everything in the world?
The word “support” is so cleverly used, because if it were morally — and this is beyond human nature — it would be very difficult for anyone to support a program that is full of violence. Of course, if you change “support” to “like,” then it is very different, because what people like is often not about morality, but more about showing their human nature.
However, it seemed that everyone was very cautious, as there were very few votes. As I expected, few would choose to support the Robotics Theatre. This ingenious interlude caused the direction of public opinion to change. I had to admire the director and Mr Eloi for their scheme.
Thus, my mission on one side ended in time. On the other side,’s army that was escorting her home continued their journey: At this moment, Roy’s army was descending from the sky as if they were made of mercury, but it was as Miss Jiang had said, the enemy robot didn’t have any powerful weapons, and there was no fire in its mouth either. It only relied on its two pairs of sharp wings to attack.
The rest of the scene exploded in flames. The winged man soared into the sky and charged into the enemy forces, spewing out scorching flames that dyed the entire sky red.
Giant, on the other hand, brandished his hammer and showed no fear towards the entire army. With a single strike, he crushed the enemy army, and the clanging sounds could be heard without end.
The Six-Hands were almost unapproachable, because his six submachine guns blocked all possible paths, turning any enemy that approached him into a pile of scrap iron.
The most shocking thing was the snakeman. He had already transformed into hundreds of little snakes, each of which were extremely fast. They could even drill into the ground and then jump out of the ground to entangle the enemy. He then spat out a thick liquid, which was extremely corrosive. The liquid melted the other party into a puddle of molten metal.
Only the humanoid robot remained motionless. It wielded a high-energy beam weapon, yet it remained motionless. However, the Roy Army did not dare to approach, because he was right beside the Miss Tomoko, and according to the rules, the enemy could not attack the Miss Tomoko.
I think this humanoid robot is a bit too cunning, letting the other four charge in to die while he holds a talisman to watch the show.
However, these four people looked heroic and invincible. Although Roy’s army had many people, not only did they not have any fighting strength, they did not have any basic tactics.
A few minutes later, the scene was filled with the ‘corpses’ of the robots, and I thought that if I were a spectator at the Robotics Theater, I would be able to smell the burning metal that permeated the forest.
“Hahaha, again!” The four warriors were still arrogantly provoking him, as if they were completely immersed in it.
I remarked, “I don’t think there’s anything more refreshing than this: a hammer blow that will turn a man into a puddle of mud and blood; a mouthful of lava; blood that will flow everywhere it goes; a distant shot that will blow the enemy’s head off; and, finally, a strong acid that will wipe out all evidence!” “Hahaha, everyone, do you think we’ll have to come back again?
The four warriors, of course, could not hear me, for these scenes had taken place two or three hours earlier. They were simply enjoying themselves, and did not anticipate that what they had done would be evidence of future moral criticism.
“Hehe,” I heard a loud voice approaching me, “Mr Eloi, is this your plan?”
It turned out to be the Master Number Six. He approached me with a smile that wasn’t a smile and looked at my sunglasses, “Whether it is the so-called warrior who was trapped in the Nether Battlefield in the Robot Theater, or the two pitiful mother and daughter who seemed to be mutually dependent on each other in front of me. “All the joy and suffering that people have suffered was all an illusion. As this Mr Latimer said, is it really happiness to indulge in killing robots?”
“Of course not.” I do not know whether he is an enemy or a friend.
“Then, in your opinion, is the love between mother and daughter that you need to rely on live broadcast to be a real love between mother and daughter?”
Dong … “Are you saying that a real mother-daughter relationship doesn’t need to be proven in the form of a live broadcast?”
“You can’t prove it on the show, and you can’t prove it with all the technology. True love is hidden in the hearts of men, and so is true hate and evil. But now, people are being deceived by technology, which proves that there is no real emotion, and that disgust is being vented by technology, which is the greatest tragedy of our time. ”
“What do you mean?” I licked my lips. “Is technology wrong?”
“Technology is not an essence, it’s just a form. But today, people rely on technology and cannot do without it. What would be the result? ”
“I don’t know.” I can’t quite catch up with him.
“Too much attention is paid to form, but the essence is lost. People spend all day in the virtual space of technology, but they no longer pay attention to their own inner minds. ”
“In that case, that is indeed the case.”
“People give up on the power that comes from the Spiritual Universe, yet they want to rely on the external world to obtain peace and happiness. This is only an illusion, a destination that is impossible to reach.”
“Spiritual energy?”
“Everyone has it, or had it anyway. But in the end, everyone is lost in the jumble of the world’s appearances — especially the beauty of modern technology. People lose their inner self. They can’t feel true peace and happiness, but they try to rely on false things to get close to their essential existence. ”
“This is probably… Is that your teachings? ” I think that’s why he’s called a master of psychic energy.
“Meditation can give people the deepest and purest psychological energy, which external technology cannot give. Technology can only cause one to fall into confusion, just like a wingless bird who cannot find the deep blue sky, but will instead drown its blue ocean as its home, and finally drown. ”
“Truly …” “What am I supposed to say?” Although I do not believe it, I could feel that there was indeed a power within his body that I did not dare to ignore, “So Master, in the end, you were able to escape from the Eloi? Is it because you have truly discovered the power of meditation? ”
The Master nodded and shook his head. “I only found the real power. I hope to share this achievement with everyone.”
“So we must first emerge from this fictitious world of technology?”
“Take your time.”
“But isn’t this going against the tide? Regardless of whether it is your Eloi or Moloch, neither of them would hope for it to end like this. ”
“This is the difficulty. People are too addicted. It is just like how a person who was able to see the bright sun but was preoccupied with a trace of firefly in the middle of the night. ”
However, it was clear that my conversation with Master Number Six was not part of the program team. When I heard the director’s stern reprimand, I immediately came back to my senses, “Ah, everyone, the one who was talking to me just now was the sixth master of mental energy in Meditation Group. I believe that everyone is clear about his views as well … “Then now …”
I felt a little like laughing, because no matter how good the teachings of this master were, no one would care about it.
“The purpose of this program is still to return to Moloch’s moral judgment!” I said in my heart, I will definitely not let down Mr Eloi’s expectations, I want to rely on my …
But before I could proceed with the moral trial, I saw a rapid development on the side: the four warriors were running out of weapons. I remember the words of the Miss Tomoko, every weapon has a limit according to their strength, and there are no backup weapons.
Although a large portion of Roy’s rebel army had already been exterminated, but … The giant’s sledgehammer had already crumbled due to overuse, so he could only continue to swing the steel rod. This was clearly not a big threat to the agile enemies, many of them even climbed onto the giant’s body and grabbed him by the neck. It seemed like it was only a matter of time before he was relegated.
The winged man could no longer spit out flames. He was like a helpless bird that had been ignited, constantly dodging more and more enemies in the air as he smoked. His movements were a little slow, and he seemed to have reached the limit of his stamina. Of course, there would not be any time for him to replenish his stamina.
There was only a single submachine gun left for the six men to use. Since the enemies were approaching from different directions, he could only retreat slowly. However, he suddenly stumbled and fell to the ground …
It was the small snake that tripped him. He had run out of corrosive liquid, so he could only run away in all directions like an ant. Roy’s rebel army that was in hot pursuit of him got braver as the battle continued. The huge snake that he had finally formed was only half the size of a person. It seemed like he still wanted to make his final move, spitting all of the remaining venom into Roy’s body.
But Roy dodged by jumping to the side agilely.
There’s only the fat humanoid robot that was pasted on Princess Tomoko’s body and no one else wanted to attack. But I think Roy’s strategy is to kill them one by one, so there’s no rush.
Roy laughed at Princess Tomoko: “Haha, your majesty Tomoko! Your four princes on horses are really useless, they clearly have such brilliant weapons, but they only know how to fight on their own. ”
That’s right! I realized that if these four warriors had been able to gather together and arrange some strategy, they wouldn’t have fallen into such a predicament. Roy’s rebel army was not that strong, it was just that they had more people. While the four warriors were fighting on their own, Roy’s army had already lost more than half of their forces.
However, it was too late for them to work together. The giant was torn apart by countless of enemies that had wrapped themselves around his body.
The winged man fell to the ground with a wail, his countless iron beaks crushing him into dust.
The Six-Hands emptied their last shot and were torn to pieces by the onrushing enemy.
The snakeman tried to split into countless smaller snakes to escape again, but he was surrounded by enemies. One was stabbed to death, and the ground was covered with snake tombs.
Roy slowly walked closer to Tomoko. “I said this … How should I call you? Call it a coward prince. Hehe, what other tricks does this timid prince have up his sleeve? Princess Tomoko, you should obediently follow me back. ”
Tomoko hid behind the timid prince in fear, tears welling up in his eyes.
The timid prince finally moved, he raised his beam weapon and aimed it at Roy, as though he wanted to kill him in one move. However, Roy bent his waist and laughed: “Now you want to be a hero?”
The surrounding rebel soldiers swarmed forward and blocked Roy one by one. Even if they were to shoot out high-energy beams, they would only be harmed by the small soldiers and would definitely not harm Roy. Now that the timid prince was the only warrior, this clearly posed no threat to Roy’s army.
It seemed that the five of them were destined to fail in their challenge. I was curious as to whether the four participants who had been cruelly ‘killed’ before could experience the pain the double had to endure …
As if to show his embarrassment as a timid prince, a VIP broadcaster that was closest to the Miss Tomoko arrived in front of him and asked: “May I ask how you are feeling right now?”
The timid prince ignored the “camera” and continued his stalemate with the enemy army.
The ‘video camera’ probably obeyed the director of the Robot Theater and asked more questions, “You have been hiding by Princess Tomoko’s side all this while, do you think that the four Warriors alone are enough to take care of the Roy rebel army?”
The timid prince did not reply, his eyes staring straight at Roy who was hiding behind the enemy lines.
“Or …” The VIP broadcaster remained expressionless, “Or have you been scared off by Roy’s rebel army and do you not dare to move?”
The timid prince remained silent from beginning to end, but it was true that in this kind of tense situation, the people hated these kinds of people the most.
Roy also laughed at him, “That’s right, you cowardly prince. I never would have thought that a prince who wished to help the princess restore her country, would still need the princess’s protection! Haha, Princess Tomoko, why don’t you go back with me, Roy, as soon as possible … ”
Before he could finish his sentence, the beam weapon in the timid prince’s hand suddenly moved, and a beam of light that was so bright that I could barely keep my eyes open shot out at an extremely fast speed.
But unexpectedly, the beam of light did not pass through Roy’s army, but instead … The beam of light directly passed through the head of the timid prince, passing through his head from his chin and shooting towards the sky.
The body of the timid prince fell forward, raising a cloud of dust.
The timid prince had actually committed suicide due to pressure?
But isn’t this a double? Wasn’t the whole tense atmosphere just acting?
Why did he …
But when I looked closely, I could see that he had not fired the shot himself.
Right now, the beam weapon was in the hands of the live broadcast team member, he must have snatched the weapon from the timid prince’s hands and killed him!
But… This live broadcast?
This so-called VIP “camera”?
I feel that it’s unbelievable, could it be that Roy arranged this spy? But was it necessary? This was because Roy’s army was already determined to win against Princess Tomoko.
Roy’s group of rebel soldiers were also in an uproar, the robots did not know whether to move forward or retreat, they continuously wandered around in place, as if they could not decide what they should do now.
The reason was simple too, because the “camera” was using this gun to send the timid prince to heaven. The beam gun was pressed tightly against the Miss Tomoko’s fair but perspiring neck.
“Humph, even though it’s the most advanced weapon,” the “camera” remained expressionless – that’s good too, because this kind of robot that was only responsible for taking pictures didn’t need a facial expression program. “But it shouldn’t only be one shot!”
