Today’s history class is unusual. In previous history classes, not only did the teacher read from the textbook, but even the students were confused. They only felt that history was far away from them, and they never realized that they were born in history.
History is the past, present and future.
Why these things are happening now are all due to the inertia of history. Why is the third New Tokyo City what it is today? The answer can also be obtained from history. The answer is that the island country has never changed and has always been in the feudal era.
, there have always been classes. And the so-called civilians are the best choice for being betrayed regardless of whether they join the army or not, because these people who join the army have interests to grab, and if they don't betray them, the nobles can't get their blood back.
This was true in the past, and it is true now, but it is a pity that these soldiers never realized that their enemies were not outside, but inside, within the island, within the altar.
The same is true for the third New Tokyo City. Are the real enemies the apostles? No, the apostles are not scary. The real scary ones are the nobles in the underground base.
No matter how many apostles are defeated, the nobles will eventually betray the soldiers.
The students looked at Duran, obviously needing a lot of time to digest.
"Teacher, is this really the case?"
"Because history has continuity, you also watch TV and see if the island country has ever had a bottom-up, thorough social change? I don't think so. Since it hasn't, then the aristocracy has not disappeared, they have just been hidden.
Among the people. If you think about the current system of the island country, is the current situation the same as before? Local tyrants occupy resources, while ordinary people have almost no way to rise. If there had been strong subversion, it should not be like today.
.So I can assert that history is still going on, and you students are still a group that has been betrayed. If you can’t realize that you are the people on the outside of the altar, you can’t understand the fate you will face in the future.” Duran said he said
It's all true, you'll find out when you wait and see.
"But the people inside the altar are fighting the apostles to protect us." The squad leader pointed out that the neurons are fighting to protect humans.
"Is this really the case? I think Rei Ayanami and Shinji Ikari have a say. Apart from executing the battle plan, do they have any guarantees? Are they paid? Are they respected by everyone? Or are they just tools?
, Use it if it’s useful, replace it if it’s not useful?”
Everyone looked at the two of them. Shinji Ikari felt that Duran was right. He was called over to become the pilot, but no one explained why or gave him what he wanted. What was he doing fighting?
There was no gain. He felt like he was fighting in the front, but behind him was his father's indifference, Misato Katsuragi's coaxing, and all the employees in Neuron seemed to regard him as a tool instead of a person. No one asked him if he wanted to fight.
, can I fight? I just give orders over and over again without thinking about my own thoughts. If I die, there will definitely be another pilot to replace me. When I think about it, I immediately feel that Teacher Du Lan is really right.
.
Ayanami Rei doesn't have so many ideas. She feels that obeying orders is her own value. After all, she is a clone and there are many substitutes.
"You may not understand it now, but in the future you will know that sooner or later you will be betrayed, and by then it will be too late to save yourself."
At this time, the bell rang, and Dulan announced that get out of class was over.
The students were excited because Duran's class was so exaggerated that it immediately brought them closer to history. From outsiders in the history textbook, they suddenly became participants in history. It was so real that it was scary. Their expectations for the future were
There was confusion and fear.
Their current situation is a bit like Liu Bang looking at the Qin Shi Huang's motorcade and saying, 'This is how a man should be'. Liu Bang was actually three years younger than Qin Shi Huang. When he saw Qin Shi Huang's motorcade, he had no idea that it would take him seven years to defeat Qin Shi Huang.
The Qin State established the Han Dynasty. I didn’t know that when I said this sentence, I was in history, but the wheel of history was not yet in place.
Now what Duran is telling these children is actually this. They are already in history. If they realize it later, it will be miserable and they will all turn into orange juice in the end.
Because the nobles will betray those outside the altar without hesitation. Only the nobles stand on the altar and control the sacrificial process. Others don't even know why they want to die.
When the nobles need manpower, they make various promises, give you this and give it to you, so that everyone can charge into battle and fight with their lives. When the nobles want to achieve their goals, they will not hesitate to betray everyone and
The wives and daughters of soldiers were sold, their children were starved to death, and all the benefits of the soldiers were taken for themselves, and then the responsibility for the failure was passed on to them. Then the nobles themselves hid and chatted with foreigners, betraying the country while laughing and talking.
Benefits in exchange for maintaining one's status.
If you think about it carefully, Seele and Neuron are actually feudal organizations that control everyone from birth to death with power and tactics, but in the end they will betray everyone and turn everyone into orange juice, without caring about other opinions.
It's a pity that no one in this world has awakened. In the theatrical version Q, Misato Katsuragi launched a resistance after the third impact, but it was already too late. Most areas are no longer suitable for human survival, and the population is not much.
Moreover, when Misato Katsuragi resisted, her attitude towards Shinji Ikari, whom she had not seen for fourteen years, was very complicated. Before, it was clear that she wanted Shinji Ikari to rescue people, but fourteen years later, she blamed Shinji Ikari. This is also consistent with the attitude of the island country towards the military.
Similarly, during the invasion and expansion, everyone supported the army, but when the war failed, everyone thought it was the army's fault. Misato Katsuragi's attitude completely reflected the attitude of the islanders towards the failed army, completely forgetting how much she supported Shinji Ikari at that time.
Save Ayanami Rei, wait until the failure, and then put the blame entirely on Shinji Ikari. If he succeeds, he will regard Shinji Ikari as a treasure. If he fails, he will regard Shinji Ikari as the culprit. This is a double standard.
It can be said that the entire Third New Tokyo City, the entire era of fighting against the apostles, and even the era of resistance in the later plots, these people are confused, have not broken away from feudal ideas, and lack a thorough transformation, so they are full of contradictions.
.
Now Dulan is here, and he comes with the idea of transformation. He wants to completely mobilize the residents of the Third New Tokyo City, mobilize their strength to smash the altar, take the army in hand, and transform the feudal army into a hopeful one.
army.
One lesson made Shinji Ikari feel complicated. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he would be betrayed sooner or later. Even though he was a second-generation official and his father was the neuron commander, he knew very well that his father simply used him as a prop. Otherwise, he would
He wouldn't be so indifferent. He would be betrayed. The more Shinji thought about it, the more likely it became. When he thought that it didn't matter even if he died, since the parts could be replaced anyway, he became even more unmotivated, and his mind wandered during training.
"Shinji, what's wrong with you? Why are you so listless?" Misato Katsuragi wanted to ask clearly.
But Shinji Ikari definitely wouldn't say it. It was Rei Ayanami who said: "He has been like this since he took the history class." It was like telling Katsuragi Misato that the new history teacher was very abnormal.
Misato Katsuragi said that history class is really so boring, so boring that it hurts the soul? She didn't realize the weirdness of history class, and thought Shinji Ikari didn't like history class.
"New history tells us that we will all be betrayed by neurons in the end." Rei Ayanami saw that Misato Katsuragi hadn't understood it yet, so she told the key points directly.
Misato Katsuragi was startled, thinking that this was what the teacher said? She had to ask clearly. So she asked them about the details of the history class. After listening, she fell silent. Finally, she decided to meet this Duran.
