Chapter 16: The Murder Tram Leading to the Decisive Battle

The night of this planet is never dark.

The ancient tree of life, always shining with a star-like blue light, this quiet and peaceful scenery has always been the pride and belief of all the people of the planet Ganon.

However, such a beautiful giant tree has now become the source of conflict.

Not only the conflict between the invaders and the defenders, but also the conflict of ideas within the Ganon royal family surged like a tsunami under oppression.

Even the queen of the planet Ganon is caught in the turbulent waves, caught in a dilemma.

She wanted to ask for peace, but the hawks led by General Yoei resolutely opposed it, but if it was a war, in Amaterasu's view, it would mean the sacrifice of her people, which she didn't want to see anyway.

"Therefore, war does not bring peace...... Is that what you think? Lin Lan silently listened to Amaterasu's outpouring, and it was rare that she didn't say anything and laughed, but just chuckled, "So, what do you think can bring peace?" ”

"Isn't it good that everyone is single-minded and fighting for their country, for their own people?" Amaterasu asked rhetorically.

"It's too naΓ―ve little girl, you are more suitable to be an adjutant to the interior than the queen, and the war years are not suitable for you." Lin Lan patted Tianzhao's shoulder as expected, "Not everyone is as wishful thinking as you, for the country, for the people?" Hehe, what if someone's hometown has been destroyed and all their families are dead? Do they really think about such a grand proposition as cosmic peace? ”

"Huh?" Amaterasu's eyes widened in disbelief.

Growing up under the protection of her mother, Sen Luo and others, she had never thought about such a thing, but it was precisely because of this that Lin Lan's words had a huge impact on her.

Lin Lan didn't pay attention to the contemplative Amaterasu, not so much that he was explaining Queen Amaterasu, but that he was talking to himself.

"The malice in the universe will not stop, they are like a virus in the universe spreading, contaminating more creatures with malice, becoming evil, and becoming depraved, this is an eternal truth. And what the order side can do is to contain it, not to solve it, because malice itself is not wrong, and even each of us has malice, but some people choose to vent in the wrong way - and this is why tragedy arises. ”

The tree of life sprinkled a point of wisdom and slowly fell on Lin Lan's body, setting him off like a black angel walking in the earthly world.

"That...... Mr. Lin? Amaterasu's cautious call brought Lin Lan back to his senses.

"I'm sorry, I was distracted." Lin Lan stood under the Tree of Life and thought about it carefully.

In order to make the next battle more interesting, let's treat this mentally handicapped queen well.

Alas, O Camp of Light, you never know how much I have done for you. After sighing silently in her heart, Lin Lan finally started the "word therapy" action against the queen:

"Amaterasu, let me ask you a question."

"Please."

"A madman tied up five innocent people, huh...... on a road. An out-of-control monster lunged at them, and in a moment it was about to run over them. Luckily, you can transform into the god of war to stop it. The problem, however, is that the madman threatens a person's life, threatening to kill that person if you become a god of war. Considering the above situation, should you transform into a god of war?"

This is a reinvention of the tram problem of the past life, and the tram problem, one of the most well-known thought experiments in the field of ethics, is still controversial even today, more than 50 years later, and there is no widely accepted answer.

And in today's situation, it just so fits.

"This question...... Can you not answer? Amaterasu pondered for a long time and gave this answer.

Lin Lan admired the magnificent scenery of the Tree of Life, turned her back to Amaterasu, smiled and shook her head: "No, since you want to ask me for advice, then you must give me an accurate answer, don't hesitate, follow the guidance of your heart to answer." ”

"I'm ......," Amaterasu pondered hard, but finally closed his eyes and replied intuitively, "I'll transform into a giant and stop that monster!" ”

Without waiting for Lin Lan to speak, Amaterasu then said, "Then do your best to find that madman and try to rescue another person!" ”

Lin Lan was silent for a moment, then clapped vigorously, "Bravo! Wonderful! That's what a queen should be! ”

"Thank you..."Amaterasu whispered thanks, and then asked curiously, "Mr. Hayashi, why are you asking this question?" ”

In front of her, the young man in the black trench coat turned around, looked at her for the first time, and replied with a smile: "This is the choice you made, keep this will, and behave well in the next battle." ”

"Huh? What do you mean? ”

"It means that the out-of-control monster represents the cosmic demon Baalzebub, and those five people mean the safety of the whole universe, and the person who is threatened by the madman symbolizes your hometown, the planet Ganon, as for the madman...... Who do you think it is? ”

The young man in black stretched out his hand and asked as if he wanted to hold the tree of life in the palm of his hand.

"Doctor of Talent......" Queen Amaterasu whispered in surprise as she realized Lin Lan's good intentions.

In this way, she seems to have vaguely captured her inner instinct.

"The so-called peace is never achieved through concessions and compromises, a weak will only make the enemy gain an inch, your wishful thinking is worthless in the eyes of the enemy, if you want to protect your wishes, then you must fight in person, to let the enemy feel your will, your determination! That's the right thing to do! ”

Seeing that Amaterasu still looked hesitant, Lin Lan sighed angrily: "Think about it!" When your mother faced the monster Gagorgon, would she still reason with it and try to influence it with love? In order to protect the people of the planet Ganon, as well as you, she has no choice but to transform and fight! Even if he dies of exhaustion in the end, it is better than the life of the entire planet being petrified by Gagorgon! ”

"That's it, Ciao~"

After saying what had to be said, the beauty of the Tree of Life was almost appreciated, and Lin Lan returned to his usual casual attitude and walked back with a free and easy pace.

From the beginning to the end, he never touched the tree of life even once.

"General, the black giant who calls himself 'Lin' has moved away from the range where the Tree of Life is located, and is walking towards the temporary rest room under the guidance of the guards!"

"Is there anything unusual about the Tree of Life?"

"Report to the General! All the best! ”

"Very good, half of the monitoring personnel will be transferred to assist in the defensive deployment of the guards!"

"Yes!"

General Lai Ying withdrew his gaze, and a faint look of satisfaction flashed in the eyes of the eagle.

Not only did the black giant not think anything wrong with the Tree of Life, but he also helped him advise Queen Anotesu to give up her weak thoughts, which made him think a lot about the dark camp.

All in all, this man can handle it!
