Chapter 10: I Judge My Judgment (5000, 2nd Update)
After the priest gave a brief judgment.
In an instant, you can see that the originally quiet square is boiling like volcanic lava!
"She doesn't believe in the Lord?"
"Not keeping the Covenant?!"
"It is not surprising that the child of the pirate, she is the offspring of sinners!"
For a time, the people's indignation was so great that even the trial occasions, which should theoretically be quiet, were filled with shouts that seemed to reach the sky.
"Judgment! Trial! Trial! ”
Even the ordinary people who did not come to the square and were still working, the tourists who were still walking the streets, the children who were still playing in the streets, and even the fishermen who had just returned from the port, after hearing the sound of judgment from the center of the city, all put down their work and play as if they had a heart, and began to chant along without exception.
"Judgment! Trial! Trial! ”
In just an instant, a sea of frenzy set off in the city of sunset, and the sound of the sound even shook the atmosphere, causing the houses and glass windows to shake slightly.
And Ammon is also one of them.
- Unbelievers.
That is, she does not obey the covenant, does not love to explore, and does not fear judgment.
What a great sin, what a terrible wickedness, and why is it that this sin has not yet been recorded in the D&C?
Presumably, God did not expect that there would be such sinners who disobeyed their great love among the people they sheltered.
At this moment, Ammon, who was chanting in unison with the people around him, heard the Lord's voice in confusion.
"I've always heard you talk about pirates...... Son of a pirate, son of a sinner, what is going on? ”
This question instantly made Ammon stop shouting, and he looked at Su Sun in shock, his eyes revealing extreme doubt.
"Lord, Lord, how could you not know about pirates?"
"How could you not know about the sinners who rebelled out of the Church a hundred years ago, and the ugly gang of countless backsliders?"
"I really don't know."
And Su Yan didn't intend to hide anything, and he didn't mind the suspicion of Ammon at all, so the young man said directly: "Tell me all this." ”
“…… Be. ”
And Ammon nodded with difficulty, his brows furrowed, and he slowly explained to Su Sun: "The origin of pirates is a group of unbelievers who voluntarily reneged on their oaths and abandoned the Codex. ”
More than 100 years ago, because of an event, some priests turned away from the Lord's mercy and chose to fight against the Covenant and veto the judgment.
They set off one of the largest rebellions in the Elemental Calendar, leaving the continent and entering the sea in a succession of divine punishments, becoming the outcasts of the seas, the precursors of the pirates who are now cut off from the Sacred Fire Continent and the New World.
And when these men went to the depths of the sea, the divine punishment that was supposed to be until death suddenly stopped, and from then on, the sea became the domain of the forsaken people, who declared that the sea was an untouchable area of the gods.
"That's a bunch of goddamn 'freed'."
When he said the word freedom, Ammon clenched his fists, his tone was filled with deep disgust, and even his expression was filled with heartfelt hatred.
"But what's so bad about freedom?"
But Su Day's questioning made the priest at a loss—how could he understand that his lord would ask such a question? That is the existence of not believing in Him and turning away from His righteous path, what is the hidden maintenance in this word?
- Maybe this is the test?
Forcibly using this reason to hide the confusion in his heart, Ammon stroked the covenant around his waist with his hand, and then said, "Too much, my lord. ”
"To be free is to not obey any precepts – they don't eat on time, they eat when they're hungry. They don't sleep on time, and when they are tired, they lie down and go to sleep. ”
"They are poor and don't work, they grab things when they want. They talk and discuss with people, and when they get impatient, they fight. ”
"Freedom is to be casual, to do as you please, to be unrestrained, and to predict more and more that they will kill people because of the dissatisfaction in their hearts, and they will get angry and angry at others who do not act according to their own will—free people do not obey the laws and oaths of the Covenant, they can choose not to love others, they can choose to choose to oppress, enslave, threaten, and intimidate others."
"If someone else apologizes, they can choose not to accept it, and if someone else wants a deal, they can choose not to pay to rob it."
"This kind of person...... It's heresy! ”
"Unable to communicate, absolute evil, absolute thug! The enemy of all the people of fire, the people of wind! ”
Saying this, Su Sun could see that Ammon's hands were trembling—not because of fear, but because of uncontrollable anger, and he knew that at this time, the priest's heart was burning with rage: "We are people who keep the covenant, and we can't take the initiative to take action against these 'free' people—but they can take the initiative against us!" ”
"We are good men who keep the law, but they are wicked people who do not obey, and they can use the covenants of the Driwa to insult us, and we cannot take revenge on them except judgment!"
- A gentleman can be deceived in a way. What's more, these people in the reincarnation world are not gentlemen, they just simply abide by the covenant, 100% obey.
Su Ri listened to Ammon's narration in silence, and there was a faint flash of spiritual light in the blue and purple dragon pupils, proving that his heart was not at peace.
He didn't even ask, 'Why didn't you resist?' because Su Sun could guess even how Ammon would answer him.
- Because of you, Lord of Judgment, you are the punishment of evil, and we have no right to take revenge on them.
"This place...... These people, there is definitely a problem. ”
Thinking like this, his heart stirred, Su Richang let out a long breath, and the complex thoughts in his heart churned: "No, it's not right. ”
"It's not them who have the problem, it's ...... I. ”
Then, he looked at the judgment table, and the blue purple dragon eyes stared at the Windfolk girl who had passed out and was tied to the shelf to be judged simply because of the son of a pirate.
"Just the pirate's child, why can you be sure that she is not a believer?" The youth said to himself.
Ammon replied easily, "If she really believes in the Lord, then you will definitely not choose to punish her in the later judgment." ”
Speaking of this, the priest suddenly realized, why did the Lord ask those questions before-could it be that this son of a pirate really believes in God? I see, if so, then everything makes sense.
If this is the case, then they have really wronged their fellow human and hurt an innocent and good person, and it is no wonder that the Lord was so confused just now.
Ammon thought he understood, but the rest of the ordinary people around him didn't.
After the brief pronouncement of the sentence by the priest on the stage, everyone has folded their hands and closed their eyes in prayer for the coming of judgment.
Before Su Sun could think about it, he sensed that a huge power of desire was far greater than before, and the power of the will when he tried the old man who spread the plague was like a tsunami, surging towards him, wanting to borrow his power to inflict thunder punishment and judgment.
And it was this behavior that made Su Sun finally understand.
"This judgment...... There is no standard for determining whether a person is guilty or not! ”
In the soul space, Su Day's soul felt the chains of wish power surging from all directions, and the golden lines were shining one after another, each of which was about equal to the convergence of hundreds of people's beliefs.
They rose from the squares of the entire Sunset City, and then flocked to the place where the 'gods' echoed by all the peoples were, that is, where Su Sun was...... Then, pray to Him for strength.
Is it evil to judge? There is no such app. Determine if there is a crime? There is no such regulation. How much is sin? There is no such standard either.
The greater the will, the greater the power that can be borrowed, and the heavier the outcome of the judgment.
When tens of thousands of people say that a person is evil, then even if that person has not done any evil deeds, the power of the will will echo the power of God and turn him into powder.
- Misunderstanding?
We humans will be misunderstood, will God be misunderstood? God is eternally righteous! If the person is guilty, then God will punish him, and if the person is not guilty, God will naturally spare him!
In the soul space, Su Sun silently restrained the chains of wish power condensed by all the willpower, but a great fear rose in his heart.
"No, God is not righteous...... Even, there is no god at all...... I had only been in the world of reincarnation for three days, and before that, I was not in this world at all. ”
"Does the God of Judgment that you believed in hundreds of years before exist? Even if he exists, how will He respond to your desires? ”
"Is there a standard, or is it like this...... Just by virtue of the power of will, you can lend your power and give judgment?! ”
Restraining the power in his hands, Su Yan didn't lend them the power, he originally planned to just like this, forcibly drag it out for five minutes, so that the priest could pronounce the innocence of the girl above - anyway, because you don't believe in the Lord, it is equivalent to sin, and you will have to bear the judgment of the world, it is too unreasonable.
There are 10,000 'better' ways to deal with this problem, so why do we have to use this most extreme punishment?
However, he thinks so, but it does not mean that he thinks so.
It seemed that after sensing that this side could not borrow power, all the wishing power that extended towards Su Sun dissipated in unison.
In the invisible spiritual realm, on the square of Sunset City, there were golden points of wish power floating above everyone's heads, and they no longer converged towards Su Sun, but towards the sky, the sky, and even the top of the world, the inner side of the world, swarming away!
In an instant, it was like a sky full of stars going straight into the clouds, and a beam of wishing power that penetrated the sky and the earth in Su Tian's eyes penetrated through the spiritual realm in this way, straight into the distant other side of the sky!
And then...... Something huge has just awakened from its slumber.
【Wish...... I'm listening. 】
It was a rumbling thunder that could not be heard by humans, not even by priests, it was a 'voice' condensed by the power of endless wishes that only responded to the shock with the power of will.
And in the beam of wish power that whistled towards that voice, only one wish was clearly audible.
[Our Lord of Judgment—punish this unbeliever!] 】
Then the voice took in some of the wish, and He gladly complied.
【Wish...... Realized. 】
The real world.
Suddenly, at the zenith, there was a terrible sound of wind.
- Boom!
Thunder roared.
In the depths of the deep and dark clouds, a golden brilliance suddenly lit up - this brilliance was born out of thin air, and in a short moment, it condensed into an incomparably dazzling thunder light, which crisscrossed the clouds, blooming with thunder snakes, releasing an extremely dangerous aura.
Then, in the next instant, the thunderbolt slashed straight towards the judgment seat, the Wind People girl who had long been unconscious!
In the square, all the people could not help but rejoice—behold, the Lord of Judgment hath sent down again the judgment, and he will judge the unbelievers! Judge these apostates!
"Huh?"
And Ammon felt a wave of confusion while he was happy.
He had just thought that the Lord would forgive the "faithful" people of the wind without sin, but who knew that judgment would still come?
Did you misunderstand it, or was it something going on?
But in any case, the thunder punishment has fallen, and the unbelievers will be wiped out—
No.
No.
Suddenly, under the joyful and pious gaze of everyone in Sunset City, the golden thunder suddenly stopped in mid-air when it was half-split.
And that's not all.
Everyone found that not only the thunder light, but also the falling leaves, dust, flowing clouds, and even the whole world were all stopped in place by a gentle but powerful force, and did not move.
The wind has stopped, the water has frozen, the clouds have stopped flowing, the dust has stopped falling, everything has stood still, and only the eyes can see ahead.
Ammon was also still, and he didn't know what was going on for the first time, but he saw his side, the Lord, move.
The young man walked silently, he walked to the center of the square, and as if the crowd had been separated, he made way for it, and he stepped onto the judgment seat, and under the eyes of all the people mixed with shock, doubt, and inexplicability, he came to the side of the child of the Wind People.
Ammon saw that the Lord raised his hand and pointed to the golden thunder that was falling.
"You're wrong."
The voice of such a sentence was heard.
As a result, this golden thunder of wishing power dissipated like a bubble and turned into nothing—even above this thunderlight, the clouds in the sky, and the sparse light rain all dissipated invisible, and a huge cloud cave dozens of kilometers long appeared in the sky above Sunset City, making the golden sun shine on the city in the afternoon and turn into a sunny day.
Then, time began to flow.
Tens of thousands of people raised their heads and stared at the vast cloud cavern in the sky, which was large enough to envelop most of the city, and then they lowered their heads and looked up at the figure on the stage with a shocked and blank gaze.
It was a young figure with long black hair, unable to see the image clearly, unable to see the face, but extremely divine, incomparably perfect, almost like the incarnation of a god.
No...... Not a god incarnate.
He is God!
Behind the figure, a huge white dragon phantom was looming, and the blue-purple eye of judgment swirled above the dragon's phantom head, releasing a real-life thunderbolt, just like the immortal white dragon that controls the thunder and inflicts eternal judgment on all things in the world!
Thundered! There were no clouds, but the thunder exploded out of thin air, shaking the heavens and the earth.
In the square of Sunset City, when the thunder exploded, after a brief silence, everyone began to exclaim uncontrollably.
"Ah, this, this is?!"
"Lord!"
"It's the Lord!"
"Lord of Judgment! O Lord of Judgment! ”
In an instant, no one was standing in the entire square.
Everyone fell prostrate on the ground, bowing down to the voice on the judgment seat, reverently, without saying a word.
- Unbelievers? Doesn't matter.
- Lei Guangming split it down but was scattered? Doesn't matter.
—Is the unbeliever sinful? It doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter at all.
Whether it was a priest or an ordinary person, a priest or a knight, and even, even the presiding priest Glo, who had already left the square and returned to the temple of Sunset City in the port, all knelt on the ground as soon as he sensed the breath in the square, clasped his hands together, and worshiped sincerely.
He could see that there was an illusory and hazy huge white dragon phantom, standing in the center of the city center, standing in the middle of the cloud cave with a diameter of dozens of kilometers, bathed in golden sunlight, like the embodiment of all solemnity in the hearts of all things.
"Lord, could it be that you really came down a few days ago?!"
But the Lord did not respond to any prayers, cheers, and worship.
Su Sun stood on the judgment platform, unblocking his spiritual power and his sense of existence.
He silently looked around the crowd of people who were praying to him, and looked around at the city that was rejoicing at the 'coming of God'.
"Lord of Judgment...... No, there is no such thing. ”
The young man muttered to himself, "God is yourselves." ”
The will of God is the will of man......
As long as you pray, then God will answer—at least for the 'Judgment'.
Justice? Justice? Trial? Joke.
This is simply the tyranny of the majority.
As long as most people think that a person is wrong, then whether he is innocent or not, then he is wrong.
Just because you don't believe in God, don't follow the right covenant, and are hated by the vast majority of people, so you have to die, what does such a world, such judgment, have to do with justice?
In other words......
If someone thinks that another person is wrong, then whether the other person is innocent or not, then the other person is also wrong for someone.
What a familiar argument...... It's just the same, even, on the side of most people, at least there are a little more people, and someone's thoughts are just their own amusement.
It's ridiculous, such faith, judgment, and gods.
and the order of this world.
So, the next moment.
The joyful and uplifted crowd heard the voice of their 'Lord'.
Beneath the phantom of the white dragon that pierced through the clouds, it was impossible to look directly and could not see the opening of the divine incarnation of the face.
"Such a trial."
As a young man who devoured the Demon Lord, he said word by word in a difficult tone, as if he was denying himself.
"It's wrong."
