Don’t raise unruly people in extreme cold weather

Chapter 524 More Appropriate Treatment
The plague contamination alarmed Perfecto, and even Princess Anne expressed her concern about the matter.

This is certainly not the first time that the Victoria Empire has dealt with such a matter.

Throughout the long history of the empire, there are many records about the activities of the evil god sect, but the usual practice is to leave the matter to the church to handle.

It is also because of this that the church is allowed to retain a large number of armed forces and even form paramilitary organizations.

But the North's approach was different, and Perfect chose to do it on its own.

There are certainly advantages to doing it yourself, but the key problem is that the North has no experience in dealing with similar incidents.

Although the supervisory department established by Perfect had the help of relevant departments of the empire and the support Perfect from the church, this could not cover up the fact that the entire department, from the leaders to the most basic staff, were all novices.

This also means that even a matter of this magnitude can alarm Perfect, the supreme ruler of the North.

However, Perfect showed great tolerance for the fact that the department he formed did not know how to deal with such a situation when it encountered it for the first time.

After all, the North was only a place that had been established for only three years, and it lacked a lot from top to bottom.

Perfect could understand why his knights were hesitant about this matter, and why they were unwilling to act according to the judgment made by the referee knight.

If he were in the other's shoes, Perfecto wouldn't be able to guarantee that he would have absolutely no hesitation at all.

From a rational point of view, the most appropriate thing to do at this time is to follow the advice given by the Referee Knight and "deal with" the entire settlement.

But there is no doubt that for the knights in the North, it is difficult to accept asking them to massacre the civilians they are supposed to protect.

This is not to say that these knights are ungrateful or that they are too saintly, but rather that people will instinctively feel compassion and sympathy when faced with such a situation, as well as empathy.

Let me ask you, if the people are "dealt with" directly when they are infected, then what should the knights who are fighting on the front line against the evil cult do if they are also infected?
Are we just going to "deal with" them directly?
Perhaps nobles and knights were indeed different from ordinary civilians, and most rulers of this era could "deal with" ordinary civilians without hesitation, but neither Perfecto nor her knights could be so cold and rational.

Moreover, in Perfectot's opinion, if the civilians infected with the plague were really "dealt with" directly, although the spread of the plague could be effectively controlled, the various problems that would follow would still be a hassle.

How she should make the decision is actually to weigh the subsequent troubles and treat these civilians with humane care, which one is less troublesome or which one will have less subsequent impact.

After weighing the pros and cons, Perfect decided to handle the matter in a relatively cost-effective way.

"Aunt Anne, can you please come over?" Perfectcott turned his eyes to Princess Anne. At this time, the presence of the heir to the royal family played a very important role, and her personal condolences could also play a very good effect. Hearing Perfectcott's question, Princess Anne nodded and agreed without hesitation: "You can rest assured to leave it to me, little Perfectcott. If you feel that there are some things that are inconvenient for you to do, I can arrange them."

Although Princess Anne is a kind-hearted and compassionate person, she is not kind without any bottom line or logic.

For matters like this, she had already consulted the advisers employed by the royal family and knew how to deal with them in the best way.

If Perfect doesn't have the right people to do the dirty work, Princess Anne doesn't mind letting some royal family members take over the job.

Of course, if Perfect had no such intention, Princess Anne would not mind solving the subsequent troubles for her.

However, Perfect shook his head and said, "This is not the best solution. Aunt Annie, you are only going to express the royal family's concern about this matter. Don't worry about the rest. I will handle it properly."

"What are you going to do? Are you really going to send doctors to treat them? Those people are infected with the plague, and it is almost impossible to cure them. You should understand this." Princess Anne persuaded Perfectcot, but she also didn't believe that Perfectcot was such an irrational person.

"I know, so I don't plan to send doctors, at least not many doctors." Perfect shook her head, obviously she didn't intend to be blindly kind: "Aunt Anne, you expressed concern about this matter on behalf of the royal family, and you went to express your condolences in person, which shows that an empire will not abandon any of its citizens.

At the same time, I will send officials from the North to accompany you, along with a medical team and a team of alchemy dolls.

Their nominal mission was to treat and care for people infected with the plague, but in reality they were to study the plague and seek cures and protection.

It would be best if they could cure the infected, but if there is no hope of cure, they will collect enough plague samples to study what kind of plague it is and whether there are ways to prevent, treat and cure it. "

Simply put, what Perfectoct intends to do is to provide adequate humanistic care to those infected, but the actual fundamental purpose is still to target the plague itself.

After all, this time it was just a few hundred people in a settlement, and it was easy for Perfectot to decide to abandon their lives, but what if the plague broke out in Chernobog?
This city now has hundreds of thousands of people living in it. She doesn't want it to become Stratholme, and she is not Arthas who was led into a trap.

"I understand what you mean." Princess Anne nodded in understanding. This is indeed more appropriate than directly "dealing with" it: "The Empire does need to study the plague. This time we were able to discover it in time, but no one can guarantee that we can discover it in time next time before the plague spreads.

Moreover, a thorough investigation should be conducted to find out what happened to the food that was contaminated by the plague to prevent similar incidents from happening again.

Do you have any ideas or plans for this, Little Perfect? ​​If necessary, I can ask the Military Intelligence Department to cooperate with you."

"Military Intelligence Department? Forget it. The efficiency of those guys is really not satisfactory." Perfect shook her head. She had had enough of the inefficiency of the Empire's intelligence department in Langton.
