Chapter 302 Consumption

""

Viper was silent for a while, letting himself recover from the shock just now, and said slowly: "Do you think it's so easy to pollute a dragon?

Even though the mirage dragon has been trapped by itself for thousands of years, and has been polluted by demonic breath, it is already weak and can only rely on the crown of the moon god to maintain its sanity.

But a dragon is a dragon after all, if you don't pay more, how can you control it.

We don't want to do it if there is another way.

Unfortunately, the situation is urgent and there is no more time to prepare,

After all, no one has seen real dragons for hundreds of years, and no one knows their characteristics, so they can only perform rituals step by step according to the handed down classics."

"Who said that? I've seen it before,"

Li Ang said eloquently: "Before I became a player, I was served by a one-stop service abroad."

Viper looked confused, "Huh?"

"Bury a dragon."

Li Ang added: "I was invited by a place in Northern Europe to be an ambassador for the new era of European funeral culture experience. I used to enjoy a three-day Nordic scenery funeral trip.

As a result, I found that the funeral culture abroad is similar to ours.

As soon as the song was played and the cloth was covered, the whole village waited for the food to be served. They walked and carried it, followed by a piece of white. As soon as the coffin was lifted and the soil was buried, relatives and friends began to cry.

Finally, there is a couplet: sighing, wailing, choking throat, tears spilling rivers and seas,

Hengpi: It's too late to die. "??? You are waiting to talk about stand-up comedy.

Viper barely resisted the urge to complain.

calm down.

In fact, according to the classics left by the Kuiyang faction, they still have a backup plan.

Even if the combination of Jijiu Juejue and Wraith Demon is not as planned before, the palace lantern is brought to the bottom of the Prisoner's Cave, and the fog gate that shuts the mirage dragon is opened,

They can still break through the barrier of the fog gate by expanding the rituals

That is to say, Viper and the other two hosts of the rituals should also join themselves in the rituals, make sacrifices, strengthen the power of the rituals, and then complete the pollution of the crown of the moon god.

But in that case, the Epiphyllum Organization would have to send additional people to the bottom of the Prisoner's Cave and pay more sacrifices in order to gain control of the Mirage Dragon.

Ants are still alive, as a player with a bright future, Viper certainly doesn't want to just die here. In any case, you must get the palace lantern.

Thinking of this, he looked at Li Ang who was looking at the long pole, and said in a deep voice, "You are so unwilling to cooperate, it must be because the organization rejected your opinion before."

Li Ang turned around and looked at Viper.

The worm slowly said: "The dragon can be big or small, it can rise and hide; the big one can spit out clouds and fog, the small one can hide its shape; the high one can fly between the universe, and the hidden one can hide in the waves. Fang Jinchun Deep, dragons change with time.

As for the mirage dragon, as an alienated dragon species, its fog can cover tens of thousands of miles at most. With the special, conduction fog array, it can completely cover most of the civilized areas on the earth.

In other words, if you own Mirage Dragon, you will have the future.

Just like other secret organizations, Epiphyllum is not monolithic, and there are many factions within Epiphyllum. A considerable number of people just want to use mirage dragons to maintain their status.

They are afraid of the impact brought by the killing game, afraid of the danger and death brought by the killing game,

They are even more afraid of the thousands of superhuman beings who ascribe great power to themselves following the killing game. "

Viper paused for a moment, then continued: "They, or the dignitaries represented by Epiphyllum,

It's not that they are afraid of the power possessed by extraordinary people. From the perspective of probability, the elite class is more likely to become advanced players.

What they fear is the collapse of the old social order represented by the players. "

Viper looked at the sacrificial wine seriously, and said: "I have read your files, including your psychological test and policy orientation test, and you seem to have the same distrust of capital as those of Whale Song.

I would like to ask you a question, why capital and capitalists have not perished since the 19th century, but have continued to maintain vigorous vitality? Haven't been overthrown or replaced? "

"Well."

Li Ang thought for a while, and replied: "No matter which social form, it will never perish until all the productive forces it can accommodate are brought into play; and new and higher production relations, when its material existence conditions are It will never appear before the womb of the old society matures."

"Conservative answer,"

Viper nodded, and slowly said: "Capitalism still has room to develop productivity, and it can extend life through methods including partial adjustment of production relations.

Among them, the two sharp weapons used by capital to maintain the social form are hedonism and consumerism.

Through marketing brainwashing, capital distorts concepts such as 'beauty', 'freedom', and 'personality', and binds concepts and materials together, giving birth to people's consumption needs and consumption impulses, and then consumes the produced wealth and completes exploitation. Realize the perfect closed loop of consumerism.

In the superhero literary and artistic works before the killing game, the superhero comes from ordinary people, no matter whether he can go to the sky, move mountains and fill the sea,

As long as he is not completely divorced from human society, he cannot leave the closed loop of consumerism produced by capital brainwashing over a long period of time.

A transcendent in the traditional sense needs a bigger house, a more beautiful car, a better living environment, and a higher social status.

In short, the superheroes in superhero literary and artistic works are still human beings, and cannot survive without human society.

Even if they have special powers, they cannot be completely isolated from capital consumption.

They will use their supernatural strength to achieve class leap, enter the upper class, cooperate with the inherent powerful class, or share power.

And the inherent rich and powerful can completely transform themselves into an extraordinary class step by step through marriage or bribery.

During this process, the original social form will not undergo earth-shaking changes. The superiors are still the superiors, but the economic advantages have changed to the advantages of economics plus personal force. "

Viper paused, and pointed to himself, "However, the killing field game is different from traditional superhero literary works. The script task once every two or three weeks determines that the superhumans produced by the killing field game will be updated at an extremely fast speed." quick,

They have a higher sense of crisis, and their demand for consumerism and hedonism has also dropped to freezing point.

This means that the value of capital is not that great for the superhumans of the killing game.

They don't need a bigger house, a more beautiful car, a better living environment, or a higher social status. In the face of the script task every two or three weeks, the first thing they have to consider is their own survival.

The fanatical pursuit of power determines that the existing social order has become an obstacle rather than a help in front of the superhuman. In order to gain power, the superhuman can take all measures.

With the progress of the killing game, the supernatural beings possess more and more power, and the existing social form will eventually fall apart.

Such a future development direction is absolutely unacceptable to the powerful class represented by Epiphyllum.

They can tolerate some of the lower classes to use extraordinary power to share power with them,

But it is unacceptable that the Transcendents have completely destroyed the social order that carried their power base. "
