Cthulhu Gonfalon

Chapter 455

Views:

The God of Fear is a very shrewd guy. Although sometimes he may be mistaken for his cleverness, at least at the critical moment of life and death, his calculations are quite reliable.

As He said, good and evil are inherent in this world, and the balance between good and evil is the basic law of this world. Using goodness to judge evil is tantamount to denying the balance between the two, and is legally untenable.

This was said so well that, let alone mortals, even the gods could not help but nod secretly.

Most of the gods in this world belong to the neutral camp. For them, general "goodness" or "evil" no longer make them care. What they care about is their own camp and laws, nothing more.

If the balance between good and evil is broken, whether the power of good is too strong or the power of evil is too strong, it will have a huge impact on the world. Whether this impact is good or bad is another matter, but as far as the current situation is concerned, no one wants this huge impact to occur - because no one is sure what the consequences of this impact will be.

Facing the God of Fear's excuse, Sui Xiong smiled coldly and didn't take it seriously.

It was not beyond his expectation that the God of Fear would defend himself in this way—or rather, it was not beyond the expectation of the God of Law.

For this trial, he had a detailed discussion with the God of Law, and asked the God of Law to play the role of the God of Fear to figure out how to defend himself.

What the God of Fear is saying now is one of the several possibilities that the God of Law had conceived at the time.

Of course he was prepared for this excuse.

"Are you the world?" he asked.

The God of Fear was stunned and shook his head.

"So, am I the world?" he asked again.

The God of Fear shook his head again.

"So, if you and I add up, do we count this world?"

"What exactly do you want to say?" The God of Fear asked cautiously, "I don't think this topic is meaningful."

Sui Xiong ignored him and turned to look at the audience: "All the gods here, do you think that our gods together are worthy of this world?"

The gods discussed it, and after a while, gave a relatively unanimous answer.

Doesn’t count.

The world is vast and endless, and it is a huge cycle from ancient times. The world existed long before the gods. Even if the gods fall in the future, the world will still exist. The gods are the powerful ones who control some of the laws of the world, the guardians who maintain the operation of the world, and the strivers who pursue infinite power and even transcendence from the world. But no matter what, even if the gods of the Pantheon are added together, compared to this world, they are really small and not worth mentioning.

Don’t you see that since ancient times, many priests have changed their owners, and many gods have changed several generations. Everyone is just the master of a certain priest in a certain generation. Even if all the gods unite, they are just the masters of many priests in this generation. That’s it—that’s all.

They are not of this world, and together they are not of this world.

Sui Xiong listened to the results of the discussion among the gods, and then looked at the God of Fear: "Do you have any objection to this result?"

"No." The God of Fear shook his head.

"Then the question arises. Since even all of us gods combined are not such a world, then how can the life and death of just one god be qualified to have such a serious impact on the balance of the world?" Sui Xiong said with a sneer, "We judge Whether you are executed or executed, will it have any impact on the balance of this world?"

The God of Fear was speechless and unable to answer.

"I ask again, am I 'good'? Are you 'evil'?" Sui Xiong continued to ask, "Of course I don't think you will answer, so I want to ask everyone here, who of you thinks you are kind? itself, or is it evil itself? Or do you think that the sum of the good gods is goodness itself? The sum of the evil gods is evil itself? "

After a brief discussion, the gods gave a negative answer.

Not to mention the gods here, even the former lords of good and evil, they were only the supreme controllers of "good" or "evil", not "good" or "evil" themselves.

This is just like the God of the Sky is not the sky, the God of the Sun is not the sun, the God of Joy is not joy...even the God of Fear himself is not "fear" itself.

Gods are just the masters, or managers, of the priesthood, nothing more.

After getting the answers from the gods, Sui Xiong looked at the God of Fear with a sneer again: "Look, I am kind, but I am not the goodness itself. You are evil, but you are not the evil itself. So what does your trial have to do with 'evil itself'? What do you mean to 'evil'? To this world, to 'evil itself', you are nothing more than a temporary worker who temporarily masters the priesthood of fear. Why? How do you think so highly of yourself? You are so arrogant!"

At this point, he paused and said sarcastically: "I have seen mortals get drunk and go crazy more than once. Some claimed to be the king of the world, some boasted that they were the most handsome guy in the world, and some claimed that they were the most handsome guy in the world. Invincible. But I clearly remember that I didn’t give you any wine, so why did you suddenly go crazy with alcohol?”

There was laughter in the audience, and the one who laughed the most was the God of Justice, Joel Gardman.

The God of Fear's face was ashen. He knew that he had lost this debate, and he had lost miserably.

After solving this problem, Sui Xiong turned to look at the God of Law who was the judge: "Your Honor, I think the defendant's defense is untenable. His trial will not have any impact on the balance of the world. Please rule. "

The God of Law swept his calm gaze across the entire public trial venue, and finally landed on the God of Fear, who was livid but speechless.

"Defendant, do you have anything to say?"

The God of Fear was silent for a moment and said: "Whether it will have an impact is one thing, whether there is such a tendency is another matter. A trial with an obvious tendency cannot be established."

This was his last act of resistance, because he knew very well that once he entered the stage of discussing and proving specific crimes, he would have no room for excuse.

If he wants to survive, he must fundamentally deny this trial in order to gain a glimmer of hope in a certain death situation.

The God of Law was unconvinced by his statement and turned to look at Sui Xiong again.

"Plaintiff, do you have anything to say?"

"I think the defendant's statement is very ridiculous." Sui Xiong said, "Why shouldn't the trial be biased? The trial is based on the law, and the law itself must be biased - to maintain social stability, safeguard the interests of the public, or To put it more clearly, law is a product of order, and it exists to maintain a stable ruling order. So, why shouldn’t the law have a tendency? Why shouldn’t a trial have a tendency? If there really is no tendency, Then there is a need for trial. If I just kill the defendant with a knife, wouldn’t everything be over?”

He turned to look at the God of Fear: "What do you think?"

A look of fear appeared in the God of Fear's eyes, and he understood that Sui Xiong was definitely not joking. If it wasn't for the purpose of judging Him, I might have killed Him long ago.

"You just want to insult me!" He said firmly, "Using the so-called laws of good people to judge an evil god is just a simple insult!"

"...I really suspect that you drank too much." Sui Xiong shook his head and sighed, "I just made it very clear that law exists based on order, and 'order' and 'chaos' are another set of concepts parallel to good and evil. Balance, why do you want to force something that has nothing to do with good and evil to be good or evil? Sure enough, you still drank too much, right?"

As he spoke, he looked at the God of Justice in the audience: "Brother, you won't give Him a jar of guillotine wine or something today, will you?"

"How is that possible!" the God of Justice yelled, "If there were good wine that could make the powerful gods drunk, I wouldn't even drink enough! This bastard, I have to give him an axe, so I won't give it to him Drinking!"

The gods laughed again, and there was a lot of sarcasm in the laughter.

The God of Fear frowned, trying hard to think of how to defend himself, but he couldn't think of anything useful.

To be honest, He is not an eloquent god. For a long time, He has adhered to the principle of using fists without using tongue, and using violence without negotiation. Who is He? It's the god of fear! He is the god who brings disaster and fear to the world! Negotiate with words? What a loss!

But now, he hated his past style and regretted not having practiced debating all these years. If he could turn back time, He would definitely practice debating hard... No! If he could turn back time, why would he go crazy to provoke that big jellyfish

The weak provoking the strong is a blatant act of seeking death!

Unknowingly, the God of Fear had placed himself in the position of the weak, and regarded Sui Xiong as the absolutely strong one who could not resist. In his mind, not only the fear of death arose, but also the fear of Sui Xiong.

The power of the priesthood made him understand this in an instant, so he couldn't help but feel ashamed and angry, and couldn't help roaring loudly, like a bird falling into a trap, being caught by the hunters with nets and spears. Pointing his bow and crossbow at the beast, it was already in dire straits.

But it didn't help. The God of Law just waved his hand to cut off the sound in the dock, and then the trial, which was delayed for a while, entered a familiar stage.

One charge after another, one crime after another, was brought forward one by one. Witnesses appeared one after another, and exhibits were taken out one after another.

In the past more than 100,000 years, all kinds of crimes committed by the God of Fear have appeared in front of the public without any concealment. As the charges were confirmed one by one, the God of Fear's face became darker and darker, and his eyes became darker and darker.

Everyone can see that this villain who has been causing trouble and spreading fear for a long time has finally reached the end of his rope.
