- Wrong?

- What went wrong?

- Did God say that the judgment was wrong?

- Then the trial just now was indeed wrong.

Few people could understand Su Day's words.

This is the thought that crosses the minds of the vast majority of the residents of Sunset City when they hear their Lord speak from the execution table.

- Since God is wrong, then he is wrong.

Why is it wrong? I don't know. But since God is wrong, then he is really wrong, and perhaps a priest will explain it to us later.

In fact, people who think this way are in the minority, because they are at least still trying to get an explanation.

The inhabitants who came to watch the judgment were all believers in the Lord of Judgment, and they were pious and reverent of the judgment and judgment, especially those who had the manifestation of the blood of judgment, or those who had been helped by some believers of the Lord of Judgment in their past lives, and their piety did not even require Su Sun to explain right and wrong.

They revere the Lord of Judgment, so when Su Sun appeared before their eyes, their hearts were filled with nothing but joy and excitement.

- Ah, Lord, it is the Lord! He has come!

- The divine descent from a few days ago was indeed real! I missed it...... If I keep going, I might be the first to meet the Lord!

- I want to write down this scene and draw it at home for future generations!

That's what they really think.

So, since the Lord of Judgment said that the judgment was wrong, it must be wrong.

"That's right, this little girl is not guilty!"

"Yes, she is innocent, and we should forgive her!"

"Fool, since she is innocent, then we cannot forgive her! Should be released on the spot, and then apologize for compensation! ”

For a time, such a voice, such a heart, spread in the square.

Even, many people have already begun to take action - they want to obey Su Sun's words, ascend to the execution platform, and gloriously release the Wind People girl to prove their piety.

However, there was a gentle force that held them back, preventing them from coming forward.

Su Sun stood on the execution platform, he looked at all the people in front of him wordlessly, his eyes were full of loss—a kind of loss for himself, for everyone in front of him.

"Why is it so easy to believe all my words?"

He whispered to himself, but the voice resounded throughout the city, and the divine voice lingered in everyone's ears with a tone of bewilderment: "What about doubt? Didn't you all pray before, pray for me to judge, for me to kill her with a lightning strike? ”

"Why did you all believe it as soon as I opened my mouth?"

No one replied.

Everyone was just as confused as Su Day.

- Or else?

Even God has said so, so is it still wrong?

They couldn't understand Su Sun's train of thought at all, because the residents of Sunset City ...... No, in the eyes of the inhabitants of the reincarnation world, God is the incarnation of infallibility.

Questioning God? Why, isn't it God who allows them to live and work in peace and contentment, and uses the covenant law to restrain human nature from evil, so that the whole world can worship good and fraternity?

In this way, Su Yan waited for a while, but still did not wait for the voice he longed to hear.

The young people could hear the voices of the crowd in the audience—they still couldn't figure out why.

So Su Yan knew that he might not be able to wait for an answer.

- Where there is rule, there is the masses. Where there are masses, there are blind obedience. If there is blind obedience, there will be no independent thinking.

And the religious rule with the true God, with morality, culture, and belief as the standard and suppressor, plus the possible existence of the gods and gods, which holds the 'right of final interpretation', such a rule is the most powerful rule.

Therefore, Su Tian could only sigh.

"Elias, what you're doing wrong...... I still don't know exactly how you lead the world, but there is no doubt that you are at least half wrong. ”

"Such a rule may make them happy, make them equal, and make them love each other...... But in the same way, it will only make them a bunch of ignorant people who only know how to worship the gods. ”

"If the gods had been right, there might not have been a big problem—but if the gods had made mistakes, there would have been no more power in this world to restrain the gods and advise them!"

So, he took a step forward.

Su Sun stood on the judgment platform, facing the tens of thousands in front of him, and the number of even more, the other residents of Sunset City who were hurrying to come because of the 'divine descending', lowered his voice, and said solemnly: "Punishment without teaching is abuse. It is tyrannical and wrong to use violent means to eliminate a person without trying to educate and change the other person. ”

"I don't really know if this kid believes me or not, but even if you really don't like unbelievers, why don't you try to educate them and make them you?"

"Maybe his parents were pirates, but what about the children? Has she ever committed any other crimes, such as homicide, robbery, or accompanying crimes? ”

"I'm not going to let her go just because she's a young child – if she kills, robs, abuses other people, and does great evil, then she's not a child, she's a brute. You can be judged and judged by these crimes, and I will only applaud. But why use this reason of disbelief? ”

The voice of the Lord resounded through the heavens and the earth.

Ammon knelt in place, still remembering the power of the gods before him to pause time, and the power to easily shatter the thunderstorm and knock the sky out of the clouds.

"Too powerful, is this the Lord of Judgment? My lord obviously has such a powerful power, but he was still able to enjoy food in a small shop with ordinary people before...... Is this the Lord's mercy and love? ”

Although he thought so in his heart, for some reason, Ammon's heart still had some doubts.

He was the only one who saw the Lord answering his prayers and exerting his power to send down thunder and punish the old man who had spread the plague.

So, it was difficult for Ammon to understand why, after this, the Lord did not exert his power, but there was also a thunderbolt on him—and then the Lord shattered the thunderbolt and proclaimed that the judgment was wrong.

Why? It's hard for him to understand.

Why? There are a lot of whys in my mind. It's just that most of the time, he keeps these reasons in his heart and imposes one seal after another.

So, when the Lord asked everyone present in confusion, he asked question after question.

For some reason, Ammon suddenly stood up.

From the original prostration.

"My lord!"

The moment he stood up, the gray-haired priest felt that tens of thousands of people in the entire square were watching him at the same time—doubt, puzzlement, shock, fear, dissatisfaction...... Many, many kinds of eyes converged on him.

You can even hear 'Get down on your knees!' You are ungodly! ''Ammon, what are you doing here?'' Such a rebuking voice.

For a moment, Ammon's heart was beating fast, because of fear, but also because of an irrepressible feeling...... He knew for himself that it was confusion, a confusion that had been hidden for a long, long time, since the first time he saw the Lord of Judgment, when he saw God.

Therefore, even under the faintly hostile gazes of tens of thousands of people, the priest still forced himself to calm his tone and said loudly, "Why do you want to protect this unbeliever? ”

Saying this, Ammon almost broke out, and he exclaimed, "I, I have received your grace!" My family, who have almost died because of the persecution of some unbelievers, some who do not obey the D&W, is you, your judge, who have brought me a fair judgment and allowed me to survive the unjust framing of me. ”

"So when I learned that I also had the blood of judgment, I was thrilled that it proved that I could approach you—the Word of you! I firmly believe that Your Word can judge all evil, all unbelief, and make the world a better place! ”

"And those who do not believe, they have planted false accusations and deceived what is good, and they have not walked in the way of what is good...... When they renounce the oath you have made with us, they are already the embodiment of evil! ”

"Good!"

Ammon originally thought that he would be rebuked by God - how normal, God had just said that the girl was innocent, which meant that she must be a believer in the Lord.

In this case, there is no basis for the accusation he just made.

But when he heard this, the Lord said that He didn't know whether the other person believed Him or not, and this strange feeling welled up in his heart, and he was not displeased.

However, Ammon did not expect that the Lord's first response was actually excitement and encouraging approval.

"Good question, Ammon."

The priest could hear that the Lord of the judgment seat was looking at him, a gaze that was warmer than the sun, and it was condensed on him, as if he had made himself the center of attention.

Then the Lord answered his own question.

"But you still haven't figured it out - punishment is not for destruction, it's for the betterment of people's lives!"

"I punish the wicked because without the wicked, the other good people will not be able to live – and of course, I don't like it myself. However, if the wicked man is not so evil that he will not be able to live until he dies, then I will not be so disgusted with him that I have to kill him. ”

With that, the Lord stretched out his hand, and he pointed behind him, to the still unconscious Windfolk girl: "You asked me why I wanted to protect the unbeliever—but you were wrong, I didn't protect the 'unbeliever'. I'm just protecting someone who doesn't know if they've made a mistake yet. ”

"Ammon, you say that you have been persecuted by the unbelievers, but you also know very well that it is better to say that the good are restored, but the wicked are not yet caught, than the point that the wicked have been punished, but the good have died?"

"This, indeed......" Ammon nodded subconsciously, but then he realized that something was wrong: "However, if the wicked are not punished, there will be more good ......"

And Su Ri on the stage responded simply: "Of course I won't let the wicked go unpunished, but I just want to tell you that compared to punishment, the most important thing is to protect and make the world a better place." ”

"The purpose of punishment is to let those who hold civilization behind die, and to make those who have not yet sinned fear of sin, and then go to the path of good—a force that needs to be controlled! It's not like to come across something you don't like, and you don't even think about it, and you destroy it with the violence of the majority! ”

"The purpose of punishment and judgment is never destruction! What has been destroyed, there is no way to do good! ”

And after saying these words, Su Yan himself was stunned.

"-yes." He thought, "The only reason why I have always made it my mission to eradicate evil is because I want to. ”

"The Demon Empire Master of the Divine Wood World, the God of Water in the Reincarnation World, and the leaders of the Séance Society, the King of the Divine Beasts of the Beast God Realm...... Those monsters, for whatever reason, are existences that as long as they live, no one else can live. ”

"This is the magic power of the Demon Devourer, which comes from this - I think that if an existence is evil, then it is evil, and I will be very happy if I kill the other person."

But...... This kind of thinking logic is actually very straightforward and simple.

If it is simply for the sake of one's own pleasure to kill the 'one who oneself considers evil', then in the final analysis, what is the difference between oneself and the group in front of oneself who is just for their own pleasure, so they ask the Lord of Judgment to punish an ordinary person who is a 'disbeliever'?

In this world, with the existence of the Lord of Judgment, everyone is a Demon Devouring Lord.

Everyone is using their own heart to judge the good and evil of another person.

To put it bluntly, for the people of fire and wind, the unbelievers are absolutely evil! Even if they give them the magical powers of the Demon Devouring Lord, they can definitely take ghasts when they kill unbelievers!

Moreover, the quality of ghasts will be very high, because the curses of many believers against unbelievers are so strong that they do not need to be evil at all to be sure that the other person is indeed evil.

"Demon Devourer's Divine Power Core...... That's what it takes. The nature of these people's thinking is actually no different from the previous me, and it is no wonder that they are my believers. ”

"So, if I were to deny them now...... Didn't you say that before me, I was ......?"

"Yes, wrong?"

in personal space.

The little red snake entrenched on the tree of wisdom, its eyes seemed to be able to travel through space, staring at Su Tian, who was confused and confused at this time.

The snake spirit chuckled and smiled heartily.

- How, my Covenant Maker? Aware that your 'path' is 'wrong'?

Is it delicious? At a loss? Is it painful? Do you feel like everything before you has been denied?

However, this is your unique privilege to be a 'strong man'!

"Losers, who are not qualified to admit that they are 'wrong'. A person who fails can improve his correctness, but he cannot admit his mistakes, because if he admits it, he will lose the courage to face the reality and lose the strength to fight against suffering, and as a result, he will suffer even more. ”

"Su Sun, my covenant maker, it is precisely because you have come victorious all the way, and because you have defeated all the enemies, that now, you have the luxury of being qualified to admit that you are 'wrong'."

"You're down now, but you're still above the loser. You are suffering now, but you are only struggling before you break out of the cocoon. ”

And this is your trial!

Meanwhile.

Sunset City, Square.

"This ......"

Hearing Su Sun's words, Ammon suddenly fell into a daze.

He looked helplessly at the little girl who was an unbeliever behind Su Ri - to tell the truth, the other party still disgusted him.

As long as he thinks that the other party may not keep the contract and do not believe in God, the priest has an instinctive desire to destroy, just like he wants to step on the cockroach to death, shoot the mosquito to death, and clean up the dirty things, he hates that very much.

However, if you empty your mind and look at the past seriously...... The other party is just a little girl who is a teenager and her granddaughter.

What if this little girl did not believe in God from the bottom of her heart, but simply because she had never been in contact with God's grace, so she did not know that there was such a thing as believing in God?

Like babies, babies have no faith at first, not because they were born with original sin, but because they don't yet know what evil is and what is good.

Sort of, similar. It occurred to him that he had thought so suddenly.

It's like the wronged family of the past......

At that time, he was acquiesced to being an apostate who had done nothing, and he was almost about to die by accepting the verdict - if it weren't for a judge insisting on finding out the truth, I am afraid that his fate would be no different from that of this little girl.

Perhaps, indeed, we should determine whether the other party is evil or not, whether we believe in the Lord, and then judge and judge......

Ammon was lost in thought.

And Su Yan exhaled a little irritably, he turned his head and turned his head to look at the others.

Su Sun could sense that in Ammon's heart, he was still struggling with the meaningless point of believing or not believing.

However, it is good to be able to start reflecting and to be able to stand up and ask questions of yourself.

But it is a pity that in the hearts of others, he does not feel the slightest thing that can be called 'feelings'.

All of them are still on their knees and worship themselves incessantly.

Su Sun could see that in the distance, ordinary people who were coming from all over the city, priests and priests who came from the port temple, and fishermen who came from the dock, they all approached the square where they were in a frenzy, and then began to worship themselves.

They don't listen to what they say, they just assume that they are right, and they don't think about why they are right.

Even if they say that they don't need to take medicine when the plague spreads, because it's just a common cold, they'll probably believe it.

“…… Why is this happening......"

Sensing his mistake, he clenched his fists in some frustration.

And the blind obedience of all the believers present is even more unbearable for the young people.

Su Sun waited for a few more minutes, waiting for someone to stand up like Ammon and ask him questions, questioning why he did this-

But still not.

Rather than that, they prefer to continue to bow down and show that they are more religious than others.

"Don't kneel!" Rise! ”

On the judgment platform, Su Yan once again announced to everyone, with a stern tone.

Usually Su Yan is not such an impatient person, but now, perhaps because of the fact that he realized that he was wrong, he felt extremely impatient at this time.

And the vast majority of people just looked up blankly—they didn't know why God asked them to do this, and they still didn't dare to stand up.

So in the end, Su Yan gave up the explanation.

He is also tired of other people bowing down to himself – to the wrong self.

-- Buzz --

Su Sun closed his eyes, and then, the invisible soul fluctuations began to spread in all directions like water ripples around it.

All those touched by the fluctuation, except for Ammon, fainted.

For a time, the entire square, more than 50,000 people, were in a coma in an instant.

No one was hurt, and Su Sun's strength ensured that everyone was safely unconscious—and in ten minutes, they would wake up, long since Su Sun left.

And at this moment, Su Sun suddenly sensed that there was a chain that bound his personal space, and it was shattered like this.

The golden chain condensed by the power of the wish dissipated, it shattered, turned into light chips in the soul space, and finally dissolved into the void, turning into formlessness.

Just like before, Su Sun refused to provide the power of the wish to the force that demanded judgment, the chain of this power of the wish power did not really disappear, but it shifted the direction of the link, and the link to the other side of the spirit world, another huge existence.

Perhaps, this is where the true 'Lord of Judgment' lies.

There is no doubt that the current Su Sun has found a way to clean away these chains of willpower - as long as he continues to walk in this world, ignoring the prayers and expectations of many believers of the Lord of Judgment in this world, and letting everyone entrust their wishes to the Lord of Judgment, he can easily be free.

- But can you give up?

Su Sun opened his eyes, and he looked silently at the rows of unconscious people in front of him...... Yes, the blind obedience of these people is indeed infuriating, and it is difficult to even communicate.

But do you want Su Sun to give up on them? Let these people continue this judgment, this tyranny of the majority, and continue to live a life bound by the covenant under the innumerable commandments?

How can it be!

"I will not give up on you, you are all people with my blood."

Whispering like this, Su Sun turned around, he was about to untie the Wind People girl from the cross, and then take the other party away, his tone was a little low: "But what to do?" ”

"Anyway, let's go find Elias first, he's competent as the Lord of Fire, but I'm afraid it's a bit too competent......"

But at this moment, Ammon's voice came,

"Wait, my lord!"

It was rare, with a hint of consternation, but also a hint of anger and questioning: "My lord, why?!" ”

Su Sun turned his head, he looked at the only priest who was not knocked unconscious by himself, and the only one who questioned him, and the young man's tone was soft: "What why, Ammon?" If you have a question, don't hesitate to ask. ”

And in the face of his own lord and his own god, Ammon first opened his mouth, he took a step forward, and then, with some difficulty, said, "My lord, if you are not my god......

"No, it's because you're my god that I'm stunned!"

With that, the gray-haired priest stretched out his hand, and with his trembling fingers he pointed at all the unconscious people present, and then looked at Su Sun, and Ammon and Su Sun looked at each other.

The cyan dragon pupil and the cyan purple dragon pupil look at each other, the inheritor of the blood of judgment, and the originator of the blood of judgment look at each other.

Then, ask questions.

"My lord, you can take the time to convince everyone that you are God, you are our Lord, you are our patron, you are our truth, and if you want to tell us something difficult, then we will learn it seriously."

Saying this, Ammon lowered his hand, hung his head a little weakly, and muttered to himself, "Why do you have to give up your teaching to us...... Are we really letting you down like that? ”

"We have been walking in your ways, wanting to walk in the way of righteousness...... If you're not satisfied, why don't you point it out? ”

"You just said that 'punishment without teaching is abuse', so why didn't you choose to educate us, but just take action and make everyone faint?"

"Why?"

The priest muttered to himself, but could not get an answer, and fell into great frustration.

He folded his hands and knees bent, as if he wanted to bow down to Su Sun, as he had done before, and pray to God in times of confusion.

And yet, as it has always been.

When Ammon tried to kneel, an invisible force held him up, forcing him to stand.

"Why ......"

Then he heard the Lord's calm, apologetic reply, "It's because I'm wrong." ”

Ammon raised his head in some astonishment, looked at Su Sun at this time, he saw that the young man lowered his head at this time, he looked around apologetically at everyone present, and then sighed: "I'm sorry, Ammon, I was wrong." ”

"I really shouldn't be so impatient...... Yes, I obviously said just now that it is abuse to punish without teaching, but in the next moment, I didn't do it myself. ”

"Although it was because I was not emotionally stable at the time, you are right, I shouldn't have done this."

Saying this, Su Yan shook his head slightly, he looked at Ammon, who didn't know how to answer, and said in a low voice: "So, my apostle, you have to learn to question, don't you?" ”

"Anyone can be wrong...... Even God. ”

And when he said this, Su Yan was silent for a moment, he didn't notice the shocked expression of the priest in front of him because he admitted that he had made a mistake.

He was lost in thought.

Then the young man suddenly laughed.

"Haha, yes. Even gods can be wrong. ”

At first, Su Yan first sneered quietly, sarcastically aimed at himself.

But soon, his laughter grew louder and louder, to the point of being filled with pleasure: "Haha, indeed, even the great beings make mistakes—the entire multiverse is a seal of their beings!" ”

"In that case, why should I pretend to be a righteous gentleman, a philosopher king who never makes mistakes?"

"Wrong is wrong, what's there to be depressed about, what's there to be anxious about - can't I improve next time?"

Slowly putting away his smile, Su Day's face became solemn, he raised his hand, stared at his palm, then clenched his fist, and said to himself in a deep voice: "I am wrong now, and I will be wrong in the future." ”

"That's it, I'm going to make mistakes all the time, I'm going to make mistakes all the time. At the same time, always improving, always improving! ”

——Surpass yourself, constantly surpass yourself.

- Find out your own mistakes, explore your own possibilities, and explore the boundaries ahead.

Then, he raised his head, and Su Tian looked around at the reincarnation world of this new era, this beautiful, but with too many fallacies and too many distortions.

Then he looked up at the sky, as if he could pass through the spirit realm and see the God of Judgment on the other side.

- He doesn't cultivate good results in his life, he only loves to kill people and set fires.

The limit of the Demon Devouring Lord lies here.

It is a supernatural power that can only be used personally, a free mind, and a 'demonic supernatural power' that replaces the heavenly heart with one's own heart.

Holding him and its existence, if it is a person, then he can naturally be happy to take revenge and carry out the justice in his heart.

The strong cut the world with a knife, and the evil spirit of the world is correct, this is the wish of Su Sun in the past.

However, if it is a society and a civilization, it is absolutely impossible to progress according to this concept.

It was precisely because Su Yan knew that he was just a demon devouring lord with a free heart, so he understood that if he really wanted to make all the evil in this world disappear, and let goodness and love, correctness and progress spread to every corner of heaven and earth, then not everyone could be a demon devouring lord and everyone could be free.

There has to be a benchmark, a criterion.

A ...... [correct].

"And my rightness, what's it?"

said to himself, and then Su Yan shook his head indifferently: "This kind of thing, it's not too late to find it slowly, anyway, I have already realized my mistake - failure is the mother of success, in the same way, if I don't realize my mistake, I can't find the right." ”

"Isn't it, Yara?"

"yes."

At this time, the red snake spirit appeared on the young man's shoulder at some point.

He nodded with satisfaction and complimented:

"Just like when you first awakened the Demon Devouring Lord's supernatural powers, you quickly accepted that you were a wicked person...... Now you are still the same, and you can still accept your mistakes so quickly. ”

Yala chuckled and replied, "It is because of this, because of your nature, that you are watched by so many great beings. This is true of the Lord, the Fate, the Herald, and even me. ”

"But they're all wrong, Yara, including you."

To this, Su Ri replied calmly: "At least it's not completely correct, and I'm afraid I can't find the 'completely correct' path." ”

"Yes, and besides, I'm not like them. They want you to be Them. ”

Saying this, hovering over Su Sun's shoulder, Yara shook her head slightly: "And I, I just want you to be you." ”

"Very well, then, it's time to act - the plan remains the same, I'm going to go to Elias first, and ask what the world is like and how he designed the order."

"Then ask this kid how he came up with such a Lord of Judgment."

At this moment, Ammon had been in a state of dazed state after hearing Su Sun frankly admit that he was wrong.

"God, admit that you are wrong?"

He was a little overwhelmed, as if he had heard something unbelievable.

"How so? If God is not right, then can the covenants, the faith, and everything we have be wrong? ”

He had difficulty understanding the concept. It has always been difficult for Christians to understand such things.

So, Ammon just stared blankly at the Lord laughing and talking to himself, staring at the sudden appearance of a small red snake on the Lord's shoulder, staring at the Lord to untie the Windfolk girl from the cross behind him, and then let the other party float in mid-air and follow him.

And at last, he saw that the Lord lifted up his hand to himself and made a 'lean' gesture.

"What are you waiting for, Ammon?"

He heard Jesus say, "Walk with me—if you will, follow me, a fallible god." ”

"Then let's keep along."

Didn't speak.

The gray-haired priest's expression gradually changed from dazed to relieved, and from relieved to calm.

Immediately afterward, from calm to firm.

Then, he lifted his steps and stepped forward, with a gradual increase in speed.

Ammon followed the figure.

"The Lord is not right."

He thought so in his heart. It was as if something was shattering, like some pillar in the heart suddenly collapsed and disappeared.

However, another strange feeling arises from the deepest part of the heart and becomes a new pillar.

"But...... So what? ”

At the very least, he can already affirm the goodness of the Lord, the power of the Lord, the faith of the Lord, the will of the Lord to admit his fault.

These are true things.

And the doubter will always follow behind the incorrect.

Witnesses, wait.

The day he became right.

- At the same time, the sea is on the coast.

Just as the day of judgment in Sunset City ended.

A pirate ship flying a strange flag is slowly approaching in the wind and waves.
