This statement published by the Walsung tribe in the newspaper was like dropping a boulder on the surface of a calm lake, which immediately stirred up stormy waves.
The Midgard colony held an emergency parliament on the same day. The lawmakers quarreled late into the night, and finally reluctantly unified their calibre. They defined the Grizzly Town incident as "a brutal and despicable terrorist attack" and urged the military to rescue the abduction by the Walsung tribe as soon as possible Before the residents of Grizzly Town were rescued safely, the colonial authorities refused to compromise with the terrorists!
On the same day the parliament issued the "Anti-Terrorism Declaration", the Midgard military also heard the news.
General Laval drew two thousand elite cavalry from Linyuan Fort, and personally led his troops to the Vimur Valley for rescue. However, considering that many civilians were trapped in Grizzly Town, and the surrounding area of Grizzly Town was covered with mysterious magical vegetation for several miles Covered, the dense trees have no way to go, and they dare not act rashly for a time.
In order to break the deadlock, the army asked for help from Midgard University, recruited casters to participate in an investigation group organized by the army, and entered Grizzly Town, which was submerged in the green sea, to collect intelligence.
The representatives sent by the military are all old acquaintances of Qiao An. Arnold and Lowry who have graduated to join the army, Angel and Ryan also decided to participate in this military mission. In addition, Arnold also recruited more than ten volunteers from the school. They are all members of the "Skull Society", an elite group within the school.
Audrey, Holden and Hailar are about to graduate, but the internship points have not yet collected enough. Knowing that participating in the survey team can get high credit rewards, they are all interested in participating in this operation.
Everyone has realized that this is not a mere expedition mission, but also involves the grievances between the colonists and the aboriginal camps. When the colonial government defined the Grizzly Town incident as a "terrorist attack", it also admitted it in disguise. This is a political event.
When it comes to politics, it is difficult to tell which of the two opposing parties is right or wrong. Audrey and Holden came from the Zion royal family and their identities are sensitive. If they participate in the investigation team organized by the colonial military, it is equivalent to agreeing with the Midgard government. The position may cause trouble to the foreign affairs department of the Feizhen Kingdom.
In order to avoid suspicion, Sister Zion cannot participate in any official investigation team. After communicating with the school, the sisters and brothers decided to go to Grizzly Town as a private expedition. If they can collect valuable information, they can also get Internship points rewards.
Of course Hailar had to accompany Zion's sister and brother. Qiao An also received an invitation from his friends to form a team, but after careful consideration, he finally declined.
Sister Hailar and Zion knew that he was busy assisting Professor Moriarty to improve the smallpox vaccine, so they couldn't spare any time to take the risk with everyone, so they didn't mind his refusal.
However, busy work is not the only reason for Qiao'an's absence.
If the main messenger behind the Grizzly Town incident is the "primitive cult", Qiao Ann will take time to accompany his friends no matter how busy he is, and when the Walsung family publicly declares responsibility for this matter, he does not want to intervene.
Qiao An basically agrees with the colonial government's characterization of the Grizzly Town incident: kidnapping civilians as a bargaining chip is a typical terrorist attack.
He did not agree with the way the Walsunge tribe attacked Grizzly Town, but the appeal made by the other party after the fact was fair and reasonable.
Stop the westward expansion and restore the boundaries defined by the "1622 Amnesty Decree." This was an agreement signed in black and white between the colony and the aborigines. The colonists broke the agreement, and the aborigines certainly have reason to lodge a complaint.
The colonial military has always denied that the smallpox virus was deliberately spread in the aboriginal communities in the west, but this is a true fact. It is a more despicable terrorist attack than the Grizzly Town incident. The victims demanded a public apology and compensation from the military. Shouldn't it?
To take a step back, the aborigines do not belong to the international political system established by the major powers based on colonialism. They have no right to speak in the public opinion, except for cheap sympathy from the "telescope-like philanthropists", and cannot be obtained in the international community. Any substantive help, when they want to accuse them of the unfair treatment they have suffered, and want to protect their due rights, do they have other options besides radical measures?
Where there is oppression, there is resistance. Qiao'an’s conscience does not allow himself to stand on the moral high ground and act as a thug, and he does not have the courage to stand on the side of the aborigines and openly criticize his compatriots and the government. In the end, he can only choose Outside of the matter, the two don't help each other.
This is not the first time Qiao An is forced to make a choice between colonists and aborigines, nor is it the first time that he has chosen to escape. The helplessness and entanglement resulting from this are stronger and stronger every time, making him feel alive sincerely. And how painful it is to be a man.
Only by working so hard and so busy forgetting the world outside can he get rid of his inner suffering a little.
It is precisely because of this mentality that he would rather stay alone in the cattle farm away from the crowds. However, this letter from Mr. Pinkerton broke his mindset that he had finally calmed down.
Qiao An does not want to be involved in the Grizzly Town incident, and there is no reason to prevent Hailar and Zion from investigating. Since Mr. Pinkerton also intends to go to Grizzly Town, it is better to introduce this experienced detective and Hailar and others to form a group— -Many years ago, the two sides cooperated in investigating the dinosaur runaway incident in Lake Aosta.
After replying to Mr. Pinkerton, Qiao An was still worried, and took out the communication crystal, instructed Hailar and Zion sisters and brothers to enter Grizzly Town, remember to write a letter to himself every day, telling the story of the day, in case When encountering danger, be sure to notify yourself immediately.
If the sisters and brothers of Pinkerton, Hailar, and Zion return smoothly and return safely, of course the best result. But if there is something wrong during the investigation, no matter Qiao Ando is reluctant to get involved in this dispute, he can't ignore the safety of his friends.
...
On the day when Joan communicated with Ted Pinkerton, that is, July 28, 1625, an investigation group organized by the military set off to the west. The leader was the 12th-level "Ofa Knight" Major Arnold and the 11th-level "Timus" "Priest" Captain Lowry, the entourage includes twelve spellcasters studying at Midgard University, of which the most outstanding are the two 9th-level wizards, Angel and Ryan.
The investigative team will arrive at the barracks in the Vimur valley in two days. At this time, Baron Laval will deploy a company of troops from the elite "Blue Lancers" to the investigative team to the grizzly bears flooded by the green sea. town.
In the early morning of August 1, a private investigative team led by Pinkerton also set off from Midgard University. Apart from Mr. Detective and his hound named "Carl", the team members were Audrey, Holden and The three of Hailar.
