Dimensional Codex

A week later, the goddess returned.

It's just that everyone's expressions are somber and ugly this time.

"What's wrong? Pull your face so long?"

Sitting behind the desk, looking at the girls with cheeks angry, Founder smiled.

"Should the mission fail?"

"No, Lord Knight, that ... the mission was successful, but ..."

The goddess official wanted to stop talking and stop talking. She looked at Emilia who couldn't see far away. At the moment, Emilia looked down and looked at the ground without a word. And Parker was rare beside Emily, saying nothing.

"You report it."

Founder ordered the goddess officer, and the goddess officer hurriedly stood up to explain the whole situation to the other party.

According to the goddess, the task of clearing Goblin they took this time was at the junction of the border of the Kingdom of Lugnica and the gathering place of the elves, because Goblin harassed the elven tribe there, so The Elven Tribe asks for help, but due to Luganica's serious xenophobia, and now that Lugna does not have a king, he finally decided to find adventurers to solve the situation-this is why the elven archers will find them , And after the next task, the other party also joined in.

In the beginning, it was smooth. For Firut and Emilia, after witnessing the atrocities of Goblin in person, they also experienced a series of baptisms from shock to anger. Then a group of people went deep into the ruins, not only destroyed those Goblin entangled in the ruins, rescued the captives abused by Goblin, but also found the ruler of Goblin-a from the demon army Troll!

In the face of the trolls, everyone fell into a hard fight at first, but then the idiot troll made a mistake.

It actually started singing fireball ...

Then he was overturned by a burst magic like Zhong Hui's watch like Hui Hui.

It can be said that the whole plan of besieging Goblin was very successful, but the problem lies after this.

After the trolls were eliminated, the goddess and his party habitually began to search for the younger brother Bryn's lair, and completely cleaned up these evil species. But what they didn't expect was that Amelia was seen when Ace was going to kill a little brother Brin, and then Amelia actually took a shot to stop it.

She wants to save this little brother Brin!

The goddess and Ace were naturally unwilling to do so. They besieged so many Goblin's lairs, and naturally knew how dangerous it was to let these young Goblin survive, but Emilia thought that Goblin was not Born to be so bad, you are simply killing!

The two sides quarreled as a result, and at this time, the little brother Brin who was sheltered by Amelia actually picked up a stone and attempted to launch an attack on Amelia, and was stabbed to death by Aise, who was stricken by the eye. Everyone thought that Emilia should know the nature of those Goblins, but she did not expect that Emilia said that we wanted to kill it first, and it was only natural that the little brother Blin countered ...

Now even Firut felt that Emilia was unreasonable.

So after that, the two sides had a big fight. The goddess officials insisted that Goblin was an evil existence, and staying there would only be a disaster for thousands of years. And Emilia said that inferring good or bad from race is totally unreasonable, and this kind of thing should not be done at all!

Because of this, on the way back, the atmosphere in the team was also very tense, and everyone did not expect a simple task, and it will eventually become like this ...

But Founder had expected it.

Why else would he arrange Emilia to kill Goblin?

"Well, I understand the situation."

After listening to the report of the goddess, Founder nodded, and then looked at Emily.

"So Emilia, what do you want to say?"

"I ... I haven't changed my mind. I don't think it's important to kill those little Goblin ... just because they are Goblin, it's so unreasonable to kill them!"

"But I'm not saying, if you don't kill them, these Goblin will attack other villages and people!"

After hearing this, Huihui could not help but refute, but Emilia obviously had her own persistence.

"If you hadn't killed so many Goblins, they would not have fallen to attack the village!"

"It's also our fault? If these Goblin didn't attack the village, why would we go and destroy them!"

Watching the argument between Huihui and Emilia, I always feel that things have evolved to "whether there is a chicken or an egg in the world first ..." No wonder they didn't quarrel with each other all the way. The **** is the result.

"Well, don't make a noise."

Founder was too lazy to listen to such a low-level quarrel, and waved his hands to signal the two to stop.

"I've heard the reasons for both of you, and I understand what you think. So now, let me say what I think."

Hearing here, everyone set their sights on Founder, and Founder swept the crowd.

"Here, I won't tell you who is right and who is wrong. The first thing we need to do is to think scientifically and rationally, and then we can solve the problem."

"............... ????"

"The first thing I want to say to you is the definition of good and bad, what is good and what is bad? What do you think determines this?"

"This……………"

Faced with the Founder's inquiries, the whole group was speechless.

"What is good for race, for ethnic groups, and for our development is good. In turn, it is bad. For example, why not kill casually? Because casual killing can cause social chaos and make a country run down, and so on At the same time, the citizens of this country cannot live with peace of mind, which reduces their quality of life. In order to make people live and work with peace of mind, there is a law prohibiting arbitrary killings. "

Founder reached out his finger and nodded at the table.

"Why do you advocate helping the weak and helping each other? Because only in this way can we grow stronger. Human beings are very fragile. In the wild, human beings are not as good as wild animals, they do not vomit venom, and they die when they are sick. Unlike wolves, they are not comparable to the vitality of Yalong and Dragon. If we do not unite, humanity will perish long ago. Therefore, we advocate unity and oppose isolation. "

Faced with Founder's speech, the girls nodded blankly. Although Founder said that they could not understand it, they roughly understood it.

"So goodness and justice, good and bad are always a subjective definition. Values ​​that apply to one group do not mean that they apply to another group."

Speaking of which, Founder looked towards Emilia.

"Emilia, your idea is good, but unfortunately it lacks a premise."

"premise?"

"That's right, you have to agree with Goblin that everything they do is wrong."

"This ......... is this a question?"

Emilia was stunned, wondering what to say, attacking the village, and abusing the girl. This must be wrong!

"Of course, it's a matter of course for you, it may not be the case for other races, for example ... Do you think eating people is good or bad?"

"Of course it's bad!"

"But on the small island to the south, there is a race called cannibals. They will dig out the hearts of defeated enemies and swallow them alive ... ... what do you think?"

"Wow ... is it true?"

"I definitely don't want to go to that island ... I don't want to meet cannibals ..."

After hearing Founder's words, the girls had expressions that could not bear to look directly, while Amelia frowned and thought.

But then Philut spoke.

"Do you have to think about it? Those guys must be madmen! Maniacs!"

"Is that so? If I want to tell you that in their culture, eating the enemy's heart means gaining the enemy's mighty power ... ... that is, they recognize this powerful enemy before they eat He lost his heart. For the cannibals, this is not a bad thing, let alone sin, but rather a glorious ... Then how can you persuade them to eat people that is a bad thing? ? "

"This……………"

This time, Emilia didn't know how to answer.

"Goblin is also the same. You may think that Goblin is very evil and mad. You have to uphold justice, but no matter how you use language to modify it, the essence of hunting Goblin will not change-that is Goblin's Existence threatens the safety of human life, so we will go and destroy Goblin. "

Having said that, Founder spread his hands.

"Look, it's that simple. It's meaningless to struggle with good and bad. We have to look at the essence through phenomena. Goblin's lifestyle is robbery and plunder, and goblins have no females, so they can only plunder others It's an objective reality, and it's not that subjective will can change.

As he said, Founder grinned.

"The same is true of the demons. Do you think that the demons are destroying, destroying, and evil? But they just want to destroy the world and then rejoin their mothers. How about it? Does it sound pitiful and sad? All they do is just to see their mother, so, in order to show pity to these demons, should we just let them destroy the world? "

"……………………"

"If one day, a mysterious race suddenly appears and launches an attack on human beings, the reason is: 'Your human beings wantonly to kill other lives and devour their flesh and blood to maintain their own existence, this is too evil! It must be destroyed!' What do you do? Do you listen to them and stop eating and starve to death? Or rise up and resist? "

"This one……………"

"The Lion King will kill and eat the children left by the previous Lion King, and then give birth to his own baby with the female lion. A disabled wolf will be killed by a wolf pack. These are evil by human standards. Ca n’t be any more evil behavior, but for them, this is only an action necessary for survival. What the lion king needs is to leave his offspring, not to raise the child of the former lion king. The wolves need to stay alive to face the next In a hunt, a wounded and disabled wolf will not bring any benefits to the wolf pack, but will hinder it. "

Founder staggered her hands, leaned back against the back of her chair, her lips twitched slightly, and looked at the pensive girls.

"Look, this is the difference in basic values. What we take for granted may be unthinkable to other races. What we take for granted to other races may not be acceptable to us."

"Don't ...... coexist?"

"Some aspects can seek common ground while reserving differences. For example, the elf does not eat meat, but it will not prevent humans from eating meat. Although it may not be familiar, it is acceptable. This is the point of seeking common ground while reserving differences. However, you cannot convince a wolf Eat grass, because the wolf is a carnivore. If it eats grass, it will die. This is the price of life-threatening. The wolf will definitely not listen to you. "

"I didn't expect you to say so many weird things ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ It sounds quite reasonable."

"Objective reality and subjective will exist at the same time, so do you."

Looking at Philut, Founder grinned.

"This is what you want to learn."

"Hey? What am I doing?"

"In order to be able to find a theoretical basis for your hatred, what you said before in the Chamber, although very reasonable, has a weak theoretical basis. You must look at the essence through phenomena, look for the root of all this, and then discover Problems, solve problems ... ... especially if you really want to completely overturn the Lugonica system. "

"Wow ... it sounds so troublesome ..."

"You don't have to worry if you don't become a king."

After a word of Firut, Founder looked again at the silent Emily.

"You are the same, Emilia."
