If the conspiracy activities carried out by Jenny, Peter, and Sean in the area around Lake Aosta are defined as "terrorist attacks," then the expansion of the colonists in the New World is not a naked act of aggression for the indigenous people. ?
The Meadgard colonial government has made an official interpretation of this issue, claiming that the indigenous peoples of the New World are just a lot of loose primitive tribes, and have not formed a "sovereign state" in the modern sense. According to the general principles of international law, the indigenous people are legally Not a sovereign of the New World.
It can be inferred from this that the vigorous "colonial movement" being carried out in the New World is not an act of war. All the colonizers involved in it are just seizing the land of no ownership, and they are not allowed to invade sovereign countries, and of course they do not have to bear Any moral condemnation.
But Joan felt that such rhetoric was untenable.
Suppose that an aborigine and a colonizer had the following dialogue.
The aborigines asked the colonists: Why did you invade us?
The colonizer replied: Because you have no sovereign state, you are not protected by international law.
The Indigenous People also asked: Our ancestors established the most civilized and prosperous human kingdom in the world 40,000 years ago. Why do you think we are not a sovereign country?
The colonizer replied: Because international law does not recognize your kingdom, you are not a sovereign country.
...
Obviously, isn't the colonizer's wording the typical "robber logic" plus "circular argument"?
If this set of rhetoric can be established, all the fallacies in the world can be packaged as truth. Anyway, Joan is a researcher, and he can’t accept this kind of rhetoric.
The colonists might as well admit that we are invaders. When he was a robber, he wanted to set up a torii, which made him feel very shameful.
What makes him more sad is that the more he understands the contradictions of human society, the more difficult it is for him to find an identity in this society that will make him feel at ease.
For example, at this moment, as a subject of the Ashan Empire in overseas colonies and as a mage employed by the military, he had witnessed the damage caused by the dinosaur riots to his compatriots in Buffalo Town not long ago. He should have condemned the Wasp.
But from a higher level to examine the conflict between the two sides, how could the colonizers be completely innocent?
Taking over the land of the aborigines, burning down the jungles and grasslands where indigenous peoples rely on nomadic fishing and hunting, catching the aborigines and sending them into the mines and plantations, and using iron chains to act as slaves, aren't they allowed to resist?
Between the colonizers and the aborigines, between national sentiment, national consciousness, and conscience, Joanne couldn’t find a position where he could feel conscience, and he didn’t know how to manage himself.
Pinkerton coughed twice and changed the subject stiffly.
"Madam, the Countess Josephine Antoinia de Poisson we are all familiar with, let me bring you a sentence."
Hearing the name of the countess, Jenny, Peter and Sean could not help changing their faces.
"Sister Josephine have anything to tell us?"
Sean couldn't wait to ask.
"The countess wants you to stop criminal activities and leave Lake Aosta immediately, otherwise you will be responsible for all the consequences."
Pinkerton solemnly recounted Josephine's warning.
Peter scratched his head and whispered to Jenny: "Our mission is almost completed. Since the elder sister has spoken, why not?"
Jenny waved his hand to stop him from talking, and asked Pinkerton with a cold face: "You said that woman asked you to talk, but you have credentials?"
Pinkerton turned to look at Joan.
Joan nodded deliberately and pulled away his cloak.
A blood mosquito flew out of the hood and returned to the form of giant mosquito in the air, making a crisp voice like a girl.
"Sister Jenny! Uncle Detective really didn't lie to you, the master did say so, hurry up!"
Of course Jenny recognized Ruby, and since she was present, there was nothing to doubt.
But she still couldn't swallow this breath, her gorgeous face twitched slightly, and then a sneer sneered.
"Peter, Sean, if you are afraid of that woman, hurry and leave."
"Jenny, stop being capricious and go with us!" Sean persuaded eagerly. "Anyway, the elder sister will not harm us. You don't give her a face. It's you who suffers in the end!"
"Less nonsense!" The wasp girl suddenly angered, her shoulders trembling with excitement, "A big sister bites, so called, but do people care about you? You don't recognize me as a big sister!"
Sean also wanted to persuade her that Jenny had turned around and looked up to the sky with a sharp, shrill whine.
As if responding to her call, there was a horrible roar deep in the clouds, and the huge shadow quickly flew over.
Ruby looked up and couldn't help but exclaim.
"Wow! What a pterodactyl!"
"That's not Pterodactyl, but Aeolus Pterodactyl!"
Joan withdrew his gaze into the air, quickly blessed his protective spells, and was ready to fight.
Pinkerton and others also foresee that a conflict is inevitable, and quickly blessed the spells and showed their weapons.
"Take all those nasty guys and throw them into the lake, ask them to take a cold shower and wake up!"
The wasp girl sneered and ordered the aeolian pterosaur in the air.
Sean and Peter looked at each other helplessly. Although they did not approve of Jenny's paranoid practice, they couldn't bear to leave her and had to become a mixed form to prepare for battle.
"Holton, and Ruby, you hurry up and stop the wind Pterosaur!" Audrey eagerly said.
"No problem!" Holden held the sword in his right hand and the gun in his left hand, spreading the dragon wings and flying into the air.
Ruby cast a spell to summon ten giant mosquitoes, lead the giant mosquito guard to the sky, and help the poet to fight against the huge pterosaur.
Audrey felt relieved and summoned Tianmara Faye to ride up and said to Joan, Hailar, and Keerton: "The enemies on the ground will be handed over to you. I will help Ruby and Holden deal with the of wind. Pterosaur."
Pinkerton nodded, raised his cane, and approached the Hornets with a cold face. Hound Karl loyally followed the owner, with alert in his eyes.
Hailar also used the wave blade giant sword, using the magical warrior's professional ability to temporarily enchant the giant sword with the "electric shock" special effect, and the blue arc flashing and crackling around the blade.
"Shaun, Peter, if you don't want to leave, help me deal with the detective and the female swordsman."
Jenny stared at Joan closely, her eyes sharp as a knife.
"The little mage in black robe had a fight with me in Bailun Mountain last year. I want to weigh how much this kid has grown in a year."
The corner of the lips evoked a dangerous arc, and the wasp girl raised her right hand, and suddenly a blazing flame burst out of her palm.
Under the restraint of magic power, the pillar of fire quickly condensed into a red scimitar, exuding a suffocating heat flow, just like the wasp in the eyes of a wasp woman.
