People on Earth often struggled with the issue of "justice or not." For example, a doctor who saved the dying faced a villain who needed to be treated. For example, a poor man's house was torn down in a fire to stop the fire from spreading. For example, sacrificing an innocent person to save another innocent person. These issues were not worth mentioning in the eyes of villains, but they always troubled the compassionate and kind-hearted people.
But in this world, there was no need to struggle with such issues.
Want to know what was justice and what was not? Just ask the God of Justice.
Yorgaardman was the God of Justice. With his priesthood, he could directly communicate with the origin of the world and determine the justice of things.
This justice was not based on his own judgment, but a judgment made by the origin of the world. In other words, even if it was not "absolute" justice, it was at least "the justice of the entire world."
For Sui Xiong, the justice of the entire world was enough.
Neither the humans nor the Orcs stood on the side of justice, so at least he did not have to feel any burden in terms of morality.
This allowed him to put down the biggest burden and look at the upcoming war with a relatively calm and indifferent attitude.
Regarding the God of War's speech and the God of Justice's judgment, most of the gods agreed and supported them. But there were also some who frowned and obviously did not agree.
Most of them were gods who had a close relationship with the Human God System or the Orc God System. Naturally, they hoped that the side they supported would win.
The Void Mask was currently the "strongest" competitor among the great Divine Powers. He also had a group of powerful allies and subordinates. Once he joined the battle, it would almost be the end of the war. Whether it was the Human God System or the Orc God System, they would definitely not be able to stop the Void Mask with the help of the Void Mask System.
So naturally, both sides hoped that he could help them, or at least not help their enemies.
But both sides had different approaches. The Orc God System chose to ask Sui Xiong for help, while the Human God System seemed to want to pretend that nothing had happened and not involve him.
Of course, things had developed to this point. It seemed that the Human God System's approach had already failed.
As for whether the Orc God System could succeed, that was another matter.
After listening to Yorgaardman's judgment, Sui Xiong was silent for a while. He looked at the gods and said, "I wonder, does anyone have any objections to the judgment of these two?"
The gods were silent. No one spoke.
Sui Xiong smiled and said, "Although we can be sure that both sides are not just, this does not prevent us from supporting and helping one side. Who do you think I should support and help? "
"I think we should support the humans." The Goddess of Joy was the first to speak. The Master God of the Carefree Gods System looked around at the gods before continuing, "From the perspective of civilization development, humans have obviously surpassed the Orcs. His Majesty the Void Mask's priesthood is development and progress, so he should stand on the side of progress. "
Sui Xiong nodded slightly, feeling that the Goddess of Joy's words made sense.
Since this battle had nothing to do with justice, then there was no need to consider the issue from a moral perspective. Since he didn't care about morality, then he should definitely help him improve.
Compared to the Orcs who were still stuck in the era of tribal civilizations, the humans who had developed into a feudal dynasty and even entered a quasi-capitalist society in many places were indeed more progressive.
However, there were also gods who raised the opposite opinion. The Master God of the Barbarian God System, "Steel Lion" Morani, was one of them. He said, "I think that before considering progress and development, we should first consider peace. Only when there is peace can there be progress and development. If His Majesty the Void Mask announces that 'if the humans attack the Orcs, then we should help the Orcs resist the invasion', then this battle will probably not happen. If there is peace, isn't it more conducive to promoting social development and progress? "
Sui Xiong nodded again. He felt that this statement made sense.
If he helped the humans, no matter what, there would still be a battle. As the passive party, the Orcs could not directly withdraw from the Main Plane. They would have to fight, and if they lost, they would have no choice but to retreat.
And if he helped the Orcs, since the humans could not win, they probably would not fight this battle again …
Thinking of this, he could not help but feel a little tempted.
He had seen the cruel scene on the battlefield after the battle of "The Day of the Sun's Death." If he could avoid a war, of course, it would be best.
But before he could think about it, the God of War spoke, "Peace is more conducive to promoting social development and progress? I do not agree with this! "
He smiled, and his hands flashed with light. Scenes appeared one after another.
"I have done statistics before. Most of the world's progress and inventions appeared during the era of war. It is precisely because of the need of war that people work hard to develop better, more efficient, and more useful methods. Why is it that humans are relatively progressive? It is precisely because all these years, they have always been at war. And why is the progress of the elves the slowest? Because they have always been defending the Ancient Forest, and they rarely come out, let alone participate in the war. "
"Of course, everyone knows that for a person to become strong, he needs to go through a lot of hard work. Then, what is the motivation for him to disregard the hardships and pain and train hard every day? Maybe there are all kinds of reasons, but the most fundamental reason is to fight, to win the battle, isn't it? "
He paused for a moment, then said, "I know that you will find all kinds of reasons for fighting, but I do not need them. I am the God of War. To me, war, fighting … these things in themselves are the meaning. I do not care about the ultimate goal of the war. I only care about the benefits that the war can bring. "
"Corpses are everywhere, and blood flows like rivers. What benefits is there to speak of?" the Goddess of Family said with a frown.
"Through war, the weak are eliminated, and the stronger and more outstanding are filtered out. This is the case for individuals, and it is the same for groups. " The God of War's eyes flashed coldly, and he exuded an imposing aura. "Sheep eat grass, wolves eat poplars, tigers eat wolves, and magical beasts eat tigers … Through such bloody battles, nature continuously eliminates the unsuitable and backward species, and breeds more outstanding species that are more suitable for this world."
"That is nature!" The Goddess of Joy said. "We are Gods, and we cannot put ourselves on the level of plants or animals."
"Is there a difference?" The God of War laughed. "Don't tell me that your Godhood came from farming! Also, don't tell me that you have been honest all these years and have not fought with others! If not for the fact that you have won so many battles, would you still be alive to sit here? "
"We were able to grow from mortals to Gods, and we are able to sit in the Pantheon Temple until now, all because of the battles that we have fought!"
For a moment, all the Gods were speechless.
