Most people think that as long as they are celestial beings, they are majestic and upright... But in fact, they are all human beings' own beautiful imagination of the celestial world.
Among the creatures in the celestial world, there are many carnivorous animals. If they were magnificent and upright, they would all starve to death. Celestial creatures are actually similar to normal creatures on the main plane. They have a complete food chain. Celestial creatures will also take the initiative to plunder the lives, or resources and wealth of other races for their own survival.
Having said that, it must involve a question of justice and evil.
Each person, or each race, has a different worldview and has subtle views of justice and evil. But this is a magical world, which has a strange power of law that can clearly distinguish justice from evil.
The criterion for judging is: whether it has caused adverse effects on one's own race, or affected the survival of the race.
Therefore, in many cases, human beings massacre goblins, bear people and other creatures will not be judged as evil, and vice versa. Human beings have caused a large number of casualties due to wars and other factors, and they will not be judged as evil by the will of the world. Because this is the survival war of the race.
Human beings think that the bear people are evil, which is purely a subjective impression of race.
Only those who have caused a large number of casualties of their own race or other races for entertainment or purely for self-interest will become evil creatures and can be detected by evil magic, or felt by the brave.
And the demons, and the undead who are hostile to life, their nature is to destroy everything, even their own race. They can survive together temporarily because the task of destruction has not been completed. Once they destroy all other races, then It's time for them to destroy themselves.
Such a chaotic race would naturally be defined as evil by the laws of the world.
Although starlight beasts are celestial beings, many people even thought that they had a "light appearance", so they believed that they were pure and kind beings. In fact, there is not much deviation in this statement. Starlight beasts do feed on negative emotions. In many cases, they can bear the title of messenger of justice. But Beta has seen in the game, the Starlight Beast who slaughtered people indiscriminately.
So, every race has good people and bad people, it's just a matter of proportion. Killing lunatics can occasionally appear in the starlight beast clan, and sacred beasts like Phoenix, which specialize in judging evil, can also appear among the demons.
Beta ordered the envoys to rest here for two hours, and then continued to go out. During the period, many people circled Shirley's carriage, wanting to see the beauty who had appeared just now again, but Shirley hid in the carriage and never showed up again.
Seeing the nearly 200 cavalry, those merchants did not dare to use force, so they had to increase their voices, bragging about their products, or bragging about their property and status, in order to win the favor of that beautiful woman.
Unfortunately, their expectations were doomed to fail.
Two hours later, the mission continued to set off. The businessmen watched Shirley's carriage swaying away, feeling extremely disappointed in their hearts.
When the envoys came out of the forest, the Starlight Beast's body was shining with silver light, and it flapped its wings and flew into the air.
Being condescending, it can see the direction in which the envoys leave. But it doesn't know that in the higher sky, there is a small golden dot hovering. The moment the starlight beast flew above the forest, it was already locked.
Beta maintained the state of mind link at this time, and when he saw the star beast appearing above the forest, he sneered.
Outside the door, Beta has long been used to doubting all strange people and things. If he went out alone, he would not be so sensitive, but now he has to be responsible for the lives of more than two hundred people, so he will pay attention to any abnormal things, no matter how small.
As if seeing Beta's sneer, Bart rode over and asked in a low voice, "Did something happen?"
"Things have changed a bit. The Starlight Beast seems to be chasing it." Beta's voice was also very low, and it could not be heard far in the cold wind. He didn't hide it from Bart. After all, Bart was on his side, and he had always trusted his side.
Beta instructed Joan to continue to monitor the starlight beast, and he ordered the convoy to speed up slightly.
Hearing this order, the simple-minded people thought that their regiment leader wanted to arrive at the next station soon, while the more serious-minded people all turned pale.
Immediately, the atmosphere of the mission group became a little weird. Beta naturally felt it, but he didn't stop it, let alone explain it. In his view, the necessary sense of tension helps to improve the safety factor on the road.
The envoys moved on, while the Astral Beast left the wanderer camp, hanging far behind them.
Joan of Arc is high above the star beast, perfectly interpreting what it means to be a mantis catching a cicada, with a squirrel behind.
According to the map, the envoys marched along the border of Udaburi. This route is indeed a passage for smuggling merchants. Although it is a bit rough, it is better than safety. After walking for two days, I did not encounter any border guards from Udapur.
And the Starlight Beast followed behind for two days.
Beta really didn't understand why he was so reluctant, what was the other party's reason? Beta originally thought that the other party would continue to follow him, and he had already considered it. He set up an encirclement circle, waited for the other party to come in, captured him directly, and asked what was going on.
But he didn't expect that not long after he had this idea, the starlight beast actually left, returned the same way, and didn't follow up again.
Do you know that you have been found? Or other reasons
Beta felt that things were getting more and more wrong. The starlight beast was full of lies and couldn't believe anything. The other party followed me for two days, but suddenly disappeared. Only ghosts believed that the other party had really left, and there must be some reason for it.
Beta thought for a while, first let the envoys station on the side of the road, then called Perisnan, and asked, "Apart from the trail on the map, is there any other way to the Frost Star Kingdom?"
Virisnan shook his head: "No more. But there is a road leading to the border of Udaburi, not far ahead."
Beta thought for a while, and felt that neither path could be followed.
It suddenly occurred to him just now that since the Lord of Vientiane had lived in the wanderer's camp for a hundred or two hundred years, it must be familiar with the nearby terrain, and perhaps there was a way to get rid of Joan's surveillance. No matter which way they go, there may be dangers. Maybe the Starlight Beasts have set up an ambush ahead, waiting for them.
This is not beta's unfounded worry, but a prudent way of thinking. In the game, he encountered many similar situations.
Now the reality of the road ahead is unknown, and the road back is to return to the forest of wanderers. Neither choice is too good. And there are mountains and forests on the left and right, and it is impossible to pass war horses and carriages. If the horses and carriages were abandoned, it would be impossible for them to go back and forth within a month.
It seems that this problem is quite unsolvable, but Beta still has a way to deal with it.
