Chapter 629 Emilia’s confusion


    ?Faerun is equally beautiful at night.


    Walking along the Neverwinter River and looking at the beautiful scenery all around is a very suitable scene for confession.


    ?But unfortunately, Duanmuhuai knew that Amelia would never come to him for this.


    After all, Cyric, the murderous prince, once said of the God of Justice - "Tyr is a perverted nymphomaniac. Otherwise, why are there so many people who are willing to sacrifice themselves for justice, but they are served by a group of beautiful slaves?" A **** girl who won’t get married?”


    ?Hmm...how should I put it? It''s rough words but not rough words.


    ?Of course, players also have their own explanations for this, and it is understandable that Tyr has such a hobby. After all—Tiel is an old man who has lost his right hand.


    ?Hmm, I understand everything.


    By the way, Cyric is also in a miserable state. Basically, his church has been completely surrounded and wiped out by players. This is not because the players have any objections to Cyric. After all, even if the Prince of Murder is the God of Lies and Killing, it has nothing to do with them.


    ??But the problem lies in Cyric''s emblem - a white skull shrouded in a black sun.


    ?Hmm...you are being disrespectful.


    ??If Duanmuhuai saw Cyric, he would definitely kill him without explaining.


    ?This divine emblem alone is enough to kill someone a hundred times.


    ?But now is not the time to discuss Cyric.


    “Mr. Duanmu, actually...”


    ?Walking to the river and looking at the forest in front of her, Amelia looked a little melancholy.


    "Actually... before I left Neverwinter, I went to visit Ms. Aribes. Her condition was very bad... and I heard from her servants that she often had nightmares... She seemed to have lost her faith. I I don’t understand…who is the righteous one and who is the evil one?”


    "Well, if you''re asking about that, I''d say...the Inquisition doesn''t care about that."


    "………Why?"


    I have to say that Duanmuhuai''s answer was completely beyond Amelia''s expectation. She looked at Duanmuhuai in surprise.


    "But……"


    "Originally, justice is something very ambiguous and undefinable. For example, a country was invaded by a group of barbarians. They brutally killed the people of that country, raped the women of that country, and killed the people of that country. Boy, are these savages evil?"


    "certainly."


    ?This time, Amelia answered without hesitation.


    "Then if you investigate deeply, you will find that the land of that country was originally the homeland of barbarians. In order to occupy this land, the people of that country not only hunted and killed the barbarians who invited them into their homeland, but also used diseases and plagues to completely Destroy them. They even scalped those barbarians as rewards, and all the barbarian tribes are doing now is just revenge for regaining their homeland. So now, tell me, who is righteous?"


    "this………"


    Amelia was speechless for a moment.


    "Justice and evil are subjective definitions of human beings. It''s like a child running to pick flowers in the forest and being killed by a beast. People will think that the beast is evil because it brutally kills a defenseless child. But in the case of beasts In this world, killing the cubs of other races is a natural behavior. It is to prevent other races from occupying their own territory. Therefore, in the eyes of beasts, there is nothing inappropriate in what they do, let alone anything. The distinction between justice and evil is ultimately defined subjectively by humans.”


    Duanmuhuai spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders.


    "This is the problem with Aribes. There is more than one kind of justice, so it is easy for the Paladin of the God of Justice to have problems, because if you insist on your own justice, one day it will collide with other people''s justice. To Aribes, although what he did was wrong, his true intention was justice. But to the people of Neverwinter, Vanswyck was evil in his own right. So, what is justice and what is evil. There is no point in delving into evil, so for the Inquisition it is of no concern to us.”


    “So…you mean, justice is unnecessary?”


    “I didn’t say that...just use an analogy.”


    ?Looking at Amelia''s depressed expression, Duanmuhuai thought for a moment.


    "Assume that human beings are a big house, then the Tribunal is the masons. We are only responsible for maintaining the house itself so that it does not collapse or become dilapidated. However, the decoration style of the rooms inside is still decided by the owner of the house, justice, evil, chaos, order , freedom... No matter what your ideas are, how you want to decorate your room is your own business, unless you dig out the load-bearing wall during the decoration and pose a threat to the existence of the entire house. Decorating the room is your own freedom, and the Inquisition... will not interfere. "


    Having said this, Duanmu Huai chuckled.


    "You don''t want the maintenance staff to tell you what to do with the things in your room. In the same way, your ideas and goals belong to you. Aribes'' justice and your justice are definitely different, but It doesn’t mean that one of them is wrong. The binary values ??of black and white are the stupidest.”


    "It sounds like it''s very difficult..." "The ambiguous concept is like this. There is no clear definition. The goal of the Tribunal is much clearer. As long as it can protect mankind, everything else doesn''t matter. So we don''t We will be entangled in the issue of justice and evil, not to mention whether our approach is correct - as long as mankind survives, we have succeeded, and if mankind perishes, then we have failed, it''s that simple."


    From a certain perspective, the radical style of the Inquisition also stems from this. Everything is based on results, rather than being obsessed with justice and freedom like the Paladins. Even if they succeed in the end, they will doubt whether their choices and actions are good. correct. And once you have doubts about yourself, you will be taken advantage of by evil gods and fall.


    So Irebeth''s kind... Duanmuhuai felt that she was hopeless.


    ?But Emilia can still be rescued.


    ?This is also the reason why everyone who joins the Tribunal can live in harmony. They have the same goal and nothing else matters. Otherwise, if they were just arguing about "what is justice", they would probably have broken up long ago.


    ?Now, even if everyone has different ideas, practices, and acceptance levels, but the big goal is the same, then the rest are all subdivisions that can be tolerated.


    “This seems a bit difficult to understand...”


    "All in all, the only thing left is more experience. Just remember that even if it is red, pink and purple are different. Some people like pink and some people like purple, but even if they are different, they are still red... …That’s it.”


    Speaking of this, Duanmuhuai patted Amelia''s head.


    “Okay, let’s go back.”


    As a result, when Duanmuhuai took Emilia back to the gate of the mage''s mansion, he found Cassim and Rosia standing hesitantly, as if they didn''t dare to go in.


    "What''s wrong?"


    “They dare not go in.”


    Facing Duanmuhuai’s inquiry, Ogis frowned and spoke slightly dissatisfied.


    “Don’t dare to go in?”


    Duanmuhuai glanced at the two of them doubtfully, then put his head into the portal. His eyes blurred, and the next moment he saw a golden Gothic-style corridor, as well as tall domes and decorations.


    ??Oh, speaking of which, the mage''s mansion will show the place where he is most relaxed according to the memory of the spellcaster. It is also normal for the internal structure of the Tribunal mothership to appear. After all, when Duanmu Huai is fine, he just stays on the mothership and doesn''t go out much.


    “Isn’t this normal? Is there something wrong?”


    ? Duanmu Huai withdrew his head and looked at Kasim and Rosia in confusion, while the latter looked very frightened.


    "No, that... such a place is not something we can enter, right? Rosia and I will sleep in the wild..."


    "What are you afraid of? It''s just a mage''s mansion. If you don''t go in and rest, why do you need it?"


    “Really, is it really okay? Everything inside looks so expensive...”


    “It’s okay, let’s go, let’s go.”


    ?Duanmuhuai shook his head, and then stepped into the mage''s mansion again, followed by Ogis and Emilia.


    Entering the mage''s mansion and seeing the luxurious scenery in front of her, even Emilia was shocked.


    “Mr. Duanmu, are you a prince?”


    ??Oh, the little girl is very good at talking. I have never seen a prince charming like this. Since your mouth is so sweet, I’ll give you one extra point.


    “Not really, this is just the view of the Tribunal.”


    “This is the Inquisition...”


    Looking at the splendid Gothic-style corridors and rooms in front of her, Emilia also swallowed her saliva. She now somewhat understood why Cassim and Rosia were hesitant. Just entering this place gives people a great sense of oppression, especially the smooth floor, which is almost as clean as a mirror, which makes people worry about whether they will lose money if they get dirty if they step on it...


    ??Is there still such an organization on the continent of Faer?n?


    Although Emilia had never left the North, the scene in front of her still shocked her. Even Lord Nasher''s castle did not have such courage, and... Emilia felt that even the king The castle cannot be so luxurious and beautiful.


    “In short, just choose the room you like.”


    ? Duanmu Huai introduced it casually, and then returned to his room - well, I have to say that the wizard''s mansion spell is really powerful, and it completely reproduced the Inquisition mothership in his memory. Having said that, this should be regarded as an illusion. After all, the mage mansion is a spell and it is impossible to reproduce the power of technology...


    From this perspective, magic is indeed very unscientific.
