Chapter 650 Stand
After the contact, the atmosphere in the camp...was rather awkward.
Not only the drow and Danilo were stunned, but even Emilia and Kasim didn't know what to say.
Emilia is not ignorant of the rules of the Tribunal. After all, Duan Muhuai once told her that the Tribunal protects human beings, not justice. At that time, Amelia didn't know much about this sentence, but now... she sort of understood what Duanmuhuai meant.
This is actually a bit complicated for Emilia.
Because, on the continent of Faerun, human beings do not have racial patron saints.
The gods on the continent of Faerun are roughly divided into two types, one is the gods of occupation and belief, and the other is the gods of race.
Take Rose as an example, whether it is good or bad, Rose does protect all drow elves, but conversely, Rose only shelters drow elves, other races—such as humans, no matter how much they say to Rose Loyalty, Rose is also dismissive of it.
Basically, most races except humans on Faerun have their own patron gods.
For example, the **** of elves is Corellon.
The drow gods are Lolth and Eilistraee.
The **** of the dwarves is Moradin, and the gray dwarves believe in Ladug.
Metal dragons believe in Bahamut, and colorful dragons believe in Tiamat.
Gnomes believe in Garl Glitter Gold.
The halfling goddess is Udala.
Even illithids have their own god, Isersne.
Even those half-breeds, such as half-elfs, if you work hard, you will be blessed by the gods of the race.
On the contrary, human beings... have no gods to protect their own race.
On this continent, there are many human believers who believe in gods, but the gods they believe in do not only care about humans.
Take Tyre, the **** of justice that Emilia believes in, as an example. Although humans account for the majority of the paladins who believe in Tyre, there are not no other races——Erebes is an elf paladin.
Although there are immortality between gods of races, but that generally refers to when they meet, and when they don’t meet, they basically belong to the kind of people who don’t get in touch with each other.
For example, elves and drow elves, if an elf sees a drow elf on the surface, it must be chased and killed without any discussion, but the elves will not be idle and organize an army to go deep into the dark region to slaughter the city of the drow elves.
So like Duanmuhuai, you pose a threat to mankind, so I want to kill your whole family... You have never seen such a thing.
So Emilia's mood at the moment is very complicated.
On the one hand, she admitted that the drow elves are indeed an evil race, and the brutality and evil shown by the drow elves' raid in Waterdeep City really needed to be eliminated.
But on the other hand, things like genocide don’t seem to be just. Even the drow elves... Uh, they shouldn’t be able to do this, right? ?
Thinking of this, Emilia couldn't help but look at Drow behind Danilo. She understood why the other party would investigate this matter. Although Eilistra and Rose are mortal enemies, both sides are sheltering The drows, the Inquisition is now looking menacing to kill all the drows, it's no wonder that Eilistraee is not worried.
"But it's not right!"
Just when Emilia was still struggling, Danilo spoke, and when he heard Danilo's objection, Yanwei frowned.
"What's wrong, don't you humans also go to encircle and suppress the lairs of those goblin kobolds? Don't you still deliberately keep a few alive?"
"this………"
Hearing this, Emilia, Kasim, and Roxia showed a bit of embarrassment on their faces. As paladins and adventurers, they also helped nearby farmers expel and eliminate goblin lairs more than once.
Of course, it is impossible to deliberately let the goblin survive. They all know that goblins are weak, but they are cunning, evil and cruel. Once one is released, they will inevitably lead the goblins from other lairs to come to revenge, and it is impossible for paladins and adventurers to stay and protect the farm all their lives, so the best way is naturally to cut the weeds and root them out.
"But drow and goblins are not the same!"
"It's all the same in the eyes of the Inquisition."
Yao Wei snorted coldly, and looked at Augis.
"Are you right, my sis?"
“………”
Augis was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly.
"As long as the aliens threaten human beings, they are enemies."
Then, she spoke.
“………”
"Then since your mission is completed, you should leave quickly, we are going back too, the master has already warned you, you deserve it if you don't listen."
Yao Wei made a face at the crowd, then pulled Augis and turned away, while the others stared blankly at the disappearance of their backs, without speaking for a long while.
Finally, Emilia coughed and looked at Danilo.
"Mr. Danilo, we have Master Kelben's sounding stone, how about... how about you contact him first?"
Even as a follower of Tyre, Emilia felt that this matter was a bit difficult to handle. If she thought it was wrong to slaughter the drow, it meant that their previous behavior of besieging the goblin kobolds was also wrong. But if it's right, she always feels a bit awkward, and Danilo doesn't seem to want to give up, but fortunately, Kelben also gave them a sound stone, which is similar to the magical world. Things like your phone are just consumables and can only be used once.
Now that Danilo has been found, Emilia decided to complete her mission first, and then slowly think about whether the act of slaughtering drow is just.
"Okay, thanks."
Danilo also calmed down at this moment. He nodded to Emilia, took the sounding stone she handed over, and then walked to the other side and began to contact Master Kelben.
And here...
"Miss Amelia, what should we do next?"
Kasim and Roxia are a little confused at the moment, but as adventurers, they are not paladins with faith like Emilia, so they don't have any special thoughts about the destruction of Drow. Especially when Yan Wei said that this was the same as destroying monster lairs like goblins, the two quickly accepted this statement.
After all, as low-level adventurers, they still empathize with the suffering lives of the people at the bottom. After working hard for a year, when the autumn harvest came, those goblins came and killed their children and livestock, and took away their lives. food, and then set fire to their homes—this kind of hatred can only be relieved by the destruction of the other party. Those peasants don't care if destroying goblin lairs is an evil act, they just want the **** goblins dead.
So compared to Emilia, Kasim and Roxia quickly returned to normal.
"Let's go back to the surface as soon as possible. To be honest, like those dwarves said, the Underdark...is really not suitable for us."
"Exactly."
Luo Xia also nodded vigorously.
"I still miss the sun and the sky..."
Although the adventure stories of the Underdark region sung by the bards in the tavern are fascinating, when they actually came here, they realized that this place is simply a painful hell.
Now they can't wait to go back to the surface and enjoy the warm sunshine and sea breeze.
"I... Maybe I should go back to the temple and ask Tyre for guidance."
Emilia also hesitated. She felt that what she had done before was not wrong, but soon she realized that she was human after all. She could fight for human beings and for justice, but to prevent the drow from being Is the massacre justified? Emilia had no answer either.
The court of justice is simple and rude, and any existence that threatens human beings deserves to die.
Now Emilia understands why Duanmuhuai said that justice is an ambiguous goal.
Is it righteous to help the evil drow?
Is it justice to sit back and watch the drow be slaughtered?
What exactly is justice?
Now Emilia also feels physically and mentally exhausted. She only hopes that she can return to the Temple of Tyre, think carefully, and seek guidance from the gods.
At this moment, Danilo also came back, and Emilia looked at him. Originally, she thought that the other party would insist on investigating, but Danilo's reaction was beyond Emilia's expectations.
"I want to leave the Underdark with you."
Danilo said with a serious expression.
"The Tribunal is an unpredictable force. We must conduct an investigation to learn their true purpose... So sorry, I can no longer continue to investigate with you."
While speaking, Danilo saluted the drow behind him, who also nodded in agreement.
"I can understand your decision, Danilo, this is my family's business, maybe... it is also the inevitable end of my family's unrighteous actions."
The drow showed a wry smile, and Emilia noticed that there was some kind of strange emotion in her eyes looking at Danilo, but Emilia decided not to care about it wisely.
Soon, the two sides separated, and Emilia and the others took Danilo back on their way back, while the drows hid in the darkness, as always.
"...Master, they have already left."
"Well, I'm pretty obedient."
Hearing Augis' report, Duanmuhuai was a little surprised. He originally thought that the harpist would track it down to the end—but forget it, the court is not afraid of this.
What they want to do, what they should do, it is not up to others to dictate.
Instead, it is in front of me... how should I put it, the spirit is really amazing.
"Keep going...! We will spread the glory and reunite all the drow!"
Duanmuhuai silently looked at Fairy, who was sitting on the chair and being carried away, his eyes looked a little strange, the joy brought by one victory after another had completely distorted the spirit of this drow At this moment, she is no longer satisfied with her status as the only priest valued by the Spider Queen. In her mind, she is the clone of the Spider Queen!
That's right, Fairy at this moment already thinks that she is the daughter of the Spider Queen, and she is the only blood left by the Spider Queen in this world through some means!
Well, this reminds Duanmuhuai of those Emperor's Children who were burned to death by the Inquisition... I don't know how many of them are as insane as Fiery and claim that they can lead the empire to the light.
Now Fairy can no longer see the shadow of the timid and cautious drow priest at the beginning. She is like a queen, a tyrant, and no one can disobey her orders. And her goal is getting bigger and bigger now, she is eager to conquer all the civilizations in the entire Underdark Region, and then kill the surface and rule the entire world. She firmly believes that under the leadership of the Spider Queen, no one will be her opponent.
Fortunately, the drow elves around her were not normal, they were all mentally polluted lunatics.
It seems that reforming the spirit is indeed a dangerous thing.
Staring at Fairy, Duanmu Huai confirmed this point again. If he took the initiative to manipulate Fairy, once Fairy's mental breakdown reached this level, then she would obviously have conflicts with him, and it was even possible against their own orders. But now it's all right, Duanmuhuai is just influencing her silently behind the scenes, even Fairy himself didn't realize that this construct is not a construct.
She believes that everything she thinks is true, and what she does is extremely correct. No one influences her thinking, and all of this is her own decision.
Hmm... But what does this have to do with Duanmuhuai? He's just a simple, harmless construct.
Hey ( ̄ ̄) b.
