Chapter 891 Dialogue between Gods and Demons(1/4)
"A name is just a code, a tool used by humans to distinguish each other.
It's not a necessity for me.
It doesn't matter what you call me.
Because we both know who the other is, and we recognize from the bottom of our hearts the evil nature of human nature.
It's just that I don't understand, why do you want to destroy my control of the entire world?
Don’t you think that this can stimulate the dark side of human nature to a greater extent, making all human beings more and more inclined to unabashedly release their evil desires of primitive instincts?
And I can sense that you are actively integrating into the web of fate that I have woven, integrating into the law of cause and effect."
Accompanied by a low, hoarse, and profound hollow voice, the God of the Abyss used Griffith's mouth to express what confused and puzzled him.
Because in its view, the other party should not be its enemy.
Zuo Si felt the spiritual essence emanating from Griffith's body with great interest, and responded in a slightly playful voice: "Integration does not mean recognition, but a means of understanding. And evil is a very subjective thing.
There are many definitions of evil, and the evil you understand and the evil I understand are not the same thing."
"Oh? In your definition, what is the dark side and evil of human nature?"
The God of the Abyss is obviously very curious and interested in this topic.
Because in its cognition, evil thoughts are evil thoughts, and there is no error in understanding in any form.
All of this has been defined before it was born by the common collective consciousness of human beings transcending themselves.
All human beings who cross that moral bottom line will have a strong sense of guilt.
This sense of guilt arising from subjective cognition is the best proof of the evil of human nature.
"I said, evil is a very subjective definition.
So I think it's not important, what's important is that everyone thinks so.
Take murder as an example. In the eyes of most people, it is an out-and-out evil act.
But if you add a prefix of revenge, it will become a neutral behavior between good and evil in people's eyes.
If we add the prerequisite of eradicating violence and promoting good, it will even reverse the situation from evil to good.
Therefore, thoughts and behaviors are not the most important criteria for defining good and evil, but the feedback from the people and environment around you, and the subsequent social impact it brings.
The most important thing is that the standards of good and evil are never fixed.
Maybe something that seems good now will have a very bad impact in the future, and then turn into something controversial or even evil.
This means that the boundaries between good and evil are actually much blurrier than people think.
They can even be transformed into each other to some extent.
The dark side of human nature and evil ideas you define are too simple and one-sided, and are still far from the essence of evil.
Because real evil needs to be set off by good aspects.
If there is only evil in a world without justice and kindness, then this evil will become meaningless.
And what you are doing is to eliminate all the qualities that symbolize kindness, beauty, and freedom in this world, put everything under your control, and destroy the last spark of light shining in the human soul.
You end up with a bunch of uncreative slaves and puppets.
This is equivalent to killing the possibility of your own evolution towards a higher level."
Zuo Si did not hide anything and openly expressed his truest thoughts and his understanding of evil over the years.
After all, unlike the God of the Abyss who is trapped in this world, he has seen too much time, space and universe.
Especially the clear context of the complete birth and evolution process of good and evil, order and chaos, like the universe where the planet Toril is located, is very helpful for understanding these abstract concepts.
This is why countless geniuses, idiots, lunatics and lunatics will always be born in that universe.
Because all this extraordinary knowledge and power is there, anyone can interpret it from their own perspective and form a unique set of logic, or even make some deviant and subversive remarks.
The series of factions in Sigil, including the Society of Gods and Non-Gods, are the best proof of this.
Although Zuo Si is far less "crazy" than others, he is also not a fuel-efficient lamp. He has long since completely separated himself from the realm of mortals at the spiritual level.
His words obviously triggered the God of the Abyss to think about evil and the dark side of human nature.
As a god born from the evil thoughts of the human group, this is not a simple philosophical issue, but a life and death issue related to the meaning of its own existence.
You must know that the God of the Abyss is a pure spiritual body, and has never been impacted or challenged in any form after it gave birth to self-awareness.
But now someone has shaken the law of cause and effect and fatalism it established, and its definition of evil and the dark side of human nature.
Such a strong impact is simply more deadly than killing all the God's Hands and Apostles in one go.
What's even more frightening is that it doesn't know how to refute and how to re-establish its own complete logic and system that has been torn to pieces.
After a long silence, the God of the Abyss who occupied Griffith's consciousness finally slowly raised his head and asked: "How do you know that you must be right and I must be wrong?"
Zuo Si smiled and replied: "It's very simple, my elect Gus will give you the answer.
The biggest mistake you make is to ignore the bright and kind side of human nature and completely exclude them from your own system.
This force will not disappear, but will gather together while being constantly suppressed.
What Gus carries is this rebellious spirit that never bows to fate.
When he defeats Griffith, you realize how fatal this mistake really was."
"So you want to start a competition and contest with me?"
The God of the Abyss seemed to understand something, and a strange light shone in his eyes.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "That's right.
I learned a truth a long time ago.
Empty language and truth are the most fragile and meaningless things in this world.
Because it is never the words that can prove right or wrong, but the results.
Just think of it as me coming to say hello to you today.
When we meet next time, it will be time for you to make a choice."
After saying this, Zuo Si didn't care whether the other party could understand what he meant, and disappeared directly into a gust of wind.
The power of the God of the Abyss quickly faded from Griffith's body.
After about a few minutes, he finally regained his consciousness, glanced at the ravine he had knocked out, and Zod who was standing beside him at a loss, and immediately asked: "What just happened?"
"I...I don't know."
Zod shook his huge head.
As a fighting maniac, he obviously did not receive any decent education, so he did not understand a single word of the conversation between Zuo Si and the God of the Abyss.
After all, philosophy is inherently very abstract, and it also involves the definition of human nature and good and evil.
And as the apostle of the God of the Abyss, he was in a state of shock from beginning to end, and was almost scared to death.
Don't think this is an exaggeration.
This is the most real feeling of Immortal Zod.
After all, the apostles couldn't even raise the slightest sense of resistance when they saw the hand of God, let alone the God of the Abyss coming in person.
"have no idea?"
Griffith was obviously very dissatisfied with this answer.
Because since becoming a demon, this is the first time that he has lost consciousness and perception of things around him.
"I'm sorry, I felt like I was bound to my body by some incomparable force and couldn't move at all."
While saying these words, Zod raised his fist and hit his head hard, with an annoyed expression on his face.
When Griffith saw this, he knew that he couldn't get any useful information out of him, so he could only ride on the opponent's back again and fly towards the capital of the ancient empire a thousand years ago.
He wanted to summon the city that was buried deep underground during the sacrifice of Boyd, and then use it as a foundation to build his own country.
He believed that as long as he showed miracles, ordinary people would flock to him and fall at his feet.
At that time, he will not only be the emperor of the mortal world, but also become the savior of mankind and the worshiped god, until he establishes an eternal empire that lasts for thousands of years.
