Banner of the Evil God
Chapter 892
Earthlings often struggle with the question of "justice or not", for example, a doctor who saves the dying and the wounded faces a villain who needs treatment; for example, demolishing the house of a poor person in a fire to prevent the fire from spreading; for example, sacrificing an innocent person to save another innocent person... Such issues are not worth mentioning in the eyes of bad guys, but they always bother those kind-hearted people with compassion.
But in this world, this struggle is unnecessary.
Want to know what is justice and what is not? Just ask the God of Justice.
Jorgaardman is the God of Justice. With his priesthood, He can directly communicate with the origin of this world and determine the justice of things.
This justice is not based on His own judgment, but on the judgment made by the induction of the origin of the world. In other words, even if it is not "absolute" justice, it is at least the justice of the "whole world".
For Sui Xiong, the justice of the whole world is enough.
Neither humans nor orcs stand on the position of justice, so at least he does not have to bear any burden in terms of morality.
This allowed him to put down his biggest burden and look at the upcoming war with a relatively calm and indifferent attitude.
Most of the gods agreed and supported the words of the God of War and the judgment of the God of Justice, but some frowned and obviously disagreed.
Most of them were gods with close ties to the human or orc pantheon, and naturally hoped that the side they supported would win.
As a strong contender for the "strongest" among the current powerful gods, the Void Mask also had a group of powerful allies and subordinates. Once He went down to fight, the war could almost be declared over - whether it was the human pantheon or the orc pantheon, neither could stop the other side with the help of the Void Pantheon.
So both sides naturally hoped that he could help themselves, or at least not help their enemies.
It's just that the two sides' approaches were different. The orc pantheon chose to ask Sui Xiong for help, while the human pantheon seemed to want to pretend that nothing had happened and not involve Him.
Of course, as things have developed to this point, the approach of the human pantheon seems to have failed.
As for whether the orc pantheon can succeed, that is another matter.
After listening to Yorgadman's judgment, Sui Xiong was silent for a while, and then looked at the gods: "I think, do you have any objections to the judgment of these two?"
The gods were silent, and no one spoke.
Sui Xiong smiled and said: "Although it is certain that both sides are unjust, this does not prevent us from supporting and helping one of them. Who do you think I should support and help?"
"I think we should support humans." The first to speak was the goddess of joy. The main god of the Forget-Sorrow Pantheon looked around at the gods, and then continued, "From the perspective of civilization development, humans are obviously better than orcs. His Majesty the Void Mask's priesthood is development and progress, and he should stand on the side of the more progressive side."
Sui Xiong nodded slightly, thinking that the goddess of joy's statement made sense.
Since this battle has nothing to do with justice, there is no need to consider the issue from a moral perspective. Since morality is not considered, then of course he should help the progressive forces.
Compared with the orcs who are still in the era of tribal civilization, humans who have developed to the feudal dynasty and even entered the quasi-capitalist society in many places are indeed more advanced.
However, there are gods who have expressed the opposite opinion, such as Morani, the main god of the wild gods, "Iron Lion". He said: "I think that before considering progress and development, we should first consider peace. Only with peace can there be progress and development. If His Majesty the Void Mask announced that 'if humans attack orcs, we will help orcs resist invasion', this war may not be fought. If we can get peace, wouldn't it be more conducive to promoting social development and progress?"
Sui Xiong nodded again, he felt that this statement was also reasonable.
If he helped humans, he would still have to fight a big battle anyway. As the passive party, the orcs could not directly withdraw from the main plane. They would always have to fight and lose before they would retreat helplessly.
And if he helped the orcs, since the human side could not win, they probably would not fight this battle again...
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little moved.
He had seen the cruel scene on the battlefield after the battle of "The Day the Sun Goes Out". If war can be avoided, it would be the best.
But before he could think about it, the God of War spoke: "Peace is more conducive to promoting social development and progress? I don't agree with this!"
He smiled, and the light on his hand flashed, and scenes emerged.
"I have counted that most of the progress and inventions in the world appeared in the war years. It is precisely because of the needs of war that people are driven to work hard to study better, more efficient and more useful means. Why are humans relatively advanced? It is because they have been fighting all these years. And why are the elves the slowest in progress? Because they always stick to the ancient forest and rarely come out, let alone join the war."
"Of course, everyone knows that a person needs to go through a lot of hard training to become a strong man. So, what is the motivation that can prompt him to practice hard every day regardless of hardship or even pain? There may be various reasons, but the most fundamental reason is not to fight and win the battle?"
He paused for a moment and then said, "I know you will find all kinds of reasons for fighting, but I don't need them. I am the God of War. To me, war, fighting... these things are the meaning in themselves. I don't care about the ultimate goal of war, I only care about the benefits that war can bring."
"What good is there if there are corpses everywhere and blood flowing like a river?" The Goddess of Family frowned and said.
"Through war, the weak are eliminated and the stronger and better ones are selected. This is true for individuals and for the collective." There was a cold light flashing in the eyes of the God of War, and a stern aura was revealed. "Sheep eat grass, wolves eat poplars, tigers eat wolves, monsters eat tigers... Nature is constantly eliminating those unsuitable backward populations through such bloody struggles, and breeding better populations that are more suitable for this world."
"That's nature!" said the goddess of joy, "We are gods, and we can't put ourselves at the level of plants or animals."
"Is there any difference?" The God of War laughed, "Don't tell me that your priesthood is grown by farming! Don't tell us that you have been honest all these years and have never fought with others! If you hadn't won war after war, would you be able to sit here?"
"We can grow from mortals to gods, and we can sit in the Pantheon until now, relying on wars again and again!"
For a moment, all the gods were speechless.
