Chapter 440 Demarcation
Chapter 440 Demarcation
Representatives of the Comosa Biological Research Association were all furious. They talked about the contribution of their research to mankind and how much tax and jobs they provided to the empire. The attack on the Mass Industrial Park broke the international consensus that everyone had always followed. Not only did the Mass Theocracy suffer immeasurable losses, but it also had a bad impact worldwide.
If this issue is not properly resolved, it will affect the progress of the biomedical field worldwide.
“How many innocent people will die because they cannot receive the treatment they deserve? These people may be your relatives and friends, or even members of the imperial family.”
“This mistake must be corrected!”
"The Mass Theocracy has exercised maximum restraint. We hope that the Glory Oath Empire will not become an enemy of the world because of this incident."
"We all stand with the Messianic State. The Comosa Biological Research Association will use all means at our disposal for the sake of justice."
……
The voices in the inquiry room were filled with those of representatives from the Comosa Biological Research Association, as if they were the victims.
Helot waited quietly for the person on the other side to vent, and even asked Melissa to bring him a cup of tea, which he drank leisurely.
The representatives of the Comosa Biological Research Association gradually fell silent. No matter how fiercely they quarreled, it was just a one-man show. No one was pushing the trial forward for them.
They all missed Governor Clooney.
"Are you done?" Helot waited until the room was quiet before putting down his teacup. "There has never been a cession of territory or compensation without going through a war. If you are well-informed, you should know that the Empire has sent Prince Stevano to lead an elite Imperial Navy to the Comosso Islands.
You can discuss your demands with the Imperial Fleet.
As the governor of the Comossos Islands, I am only responsible for the rights and interests of the citizens of the Empire under my jurisdiction. Evidence will not be invalidated based on whether it was obtained legally, and the lives of the citizens of the Empire cannot be played with by the contribution of biomedicine to the world.
Now I give you two choices: You will investigate the crimes you have committed against the Comossa Islands and compensate all the victims. From now on, all experiments on monsters and humans must be reported to the Governor's Office, and the risks must be clearly informed to those who voluntarily accept human experiments.
The second option is of course for me to help you complete it!"
Helot did not engage in meaningless verbal arguments with these people, but directly threatened with force.
Damon immediately responded: "The Mass Theocracy has also sent a fleet here."
"The Bede Federation has sent a fleet."
"The Cooper Republic has sent a fleet."
……
In total, nine countries have sent intervention fleets to the Comossos Islands, and other countries that want to get a piece of the pie may send more or less troops to participate.
Helot snorted: "It seems there is nothing to talk about. Then let's fight! I will fight with you as long as you want!"
The atmosphere in the questioning room suddenly became silent.
Bede Cooper looked at Helot, then at the room full of dead souls, and realized that the war he imagined might not be the real war in the Comoss Islands.
Why was it difficult for the Empire to effectively manage the Comus Islands?
It is because this place is far away from the empire's homeland and the logistical supply lines are extremely long, so there is no ability to station an imperial army of sufficient size on the Comoss Islands.
In the past, anyone who could defeat the Imperial fleet could occupy the Comossos Islands. Therefore, the Empire always assumed that this territory belonged to the Empire in name only, and did not care what people from other countries did there.
It's different now.
The undead need no supplies!
Even without control of the sea, the Undead can still fight on the Comossor Islands.
No one knows how many undead armies the Claulund family has, but as long as there are undead on the archipelago, the war will never end once it starts.
The intervening troops of various countries also face the problem of long-term supply.
The representatives of the Comossa Biological Research Association were now in a dilemma. The first thing they would lose in the war was their industry on the Comossa Islands. If they could not defeat the Glory Oath Empire and get compensation for the cession of territory, their losses would be in vain and they would not get a single cent back.
But the harsh words have been spoken. If they retreat now, they can only watch as Helot gradually erodes their interests in the Comossos Islands.
Seeing the others become hesitant, Damon stood up and said, "Okay, let's fight!"
Melinda from the Sea Island Group said, "Knight Damon, I think the worst outcome of this dispute is war. We shouldn't hope to reach a conclusion in one meeting. Why don't we end it today and go back and think about it. Maybe we can have a better solution next time we meet."
Other representatives also said that what the Sea Island Group said was right. Even a business negotiation could not be resolved in one meeting, let alone an incident that could potentially trigger a war.
The retreat of the Komosa Biological Research Association left Damon standing there alone. They all wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to gain benefits for themselves, but they would not sacrifice themselves.
Hailuot did not press further: "Let's talk next time. Mai Nur will send them out."
When sending people off, Helot did not continue to disgust these representatives of the Comosa Biological Research Association with zombies. The head maid Mai Nur could let these people know the background of the Claulund family and recall the fear brought by the ancestors of the Claulund family when they commanded the army of undead to fight in history.
A crisis was suspended, and Helot officially exercised the power of the Governor of the Comossos Islands... He built haunted houses on the main islands and stored the dead in them in preparation for a possible war.
The atmosphere in the Comossa Islands became increasingly tense, and it seemed that a war was about to break out.
Melissa continues to search for the torturer and finds some clues at the Wonderful Time Resort.
Using the key she got from the Fallen King, Melissa found the room he had lived in while recovering from his injuries. After searching and questioning the service staff, an institution called the Rainbow Island Biological Research Institute came into view.
The magic elements on Rainbow Island are very complex, and natural magic often erupts from elemental reactions, resulting in extremely diverse species on the island. There may be a tropical biosphere next to the cold biosphere, and there is also a floating seawater belt above the island, which refracts sunlight to form a magnificent rainbow bridge, in which are swimming marine fish.
This Rainbow Bridge can be clearly seen even from the Governor's Palace on Sail Island.
Now it was Melissa's turn to disguise herself and go to Rainbow Island to investigate the whereabouts of the prisoner. Helot stood on the terrace of the Governor's Palace and looked at the rainbow in the distance.
When I went to Miracle Island, she probably felt the same way as I do now.
There were more than ten warships anchored in the sea in front of the Governor's Mansion. This was the Empire's fleet stationed in the Comossos Islands. The warships in the fleet were very old. Except for the flagship, which was a new-model destroyer, the others were much smaller, old-style gunboats, and even three wooden darts were pulled out.
The mission of this fleet is to protect the Governor's Palace during this extraordinary period. Because of the presence of the fleet, the beach, which was originally crowded with tourists, became extremely deserted.
There was only one woman on the white beach, wearing light clothes, holding a pair of high-heeled sandals in her hands, walking barefoot, leaving a trail of footprints on the sand. Helot quickly noticed this woman, and a familiar feeling made him look closely at her appearance.
is her!
Helot summoned the "Old Code", put on silver armor, spread his silver wings, and then flew into the sky.
"Keshiya, Filoro, follow up!"
Kaishia spread her crystal wings and caught up with Helot.
Filoro soon caught up.
Helot landed on the beach and stopped in front of the woman: "Theresa, is this meeting a coincidence? Or did you deliberately bring me to see you?"
The woman who was walking intently raised her head. It was Theresa, who had once assassinated Irina in Hog Town. She was a candidate for the executioner, codenamed "Storm", and had hurricane bloodline.
The sea breeze blew Theresa's light blue hair, and the air flow formed a wind field around her.
Kaishia, dressed in men's clothes, turned into a mermaid and landed behind Theresa.
Firoro hovered in the air, staring at the woman who was once his enemy with a pair of dead fish eyes.
"I have no ill intentions!" Theresa stretched out her hands, and the wind field dissipated. "I heard that you, Mr. Claulund, have been appointed the governor of the Comosso Islands. On behalf of all the descendants of the Duke of the Prisoner, I would like to congratulate you."
"Or tell me why you came to see me!"
Theresa bowed and asked, "We would like to know if you are on a mission to reclaim the Comossos Islands for the Empire?"
"Yes!"
Even if I say now that I am not here to retake the Comussae Islands, I guess no one will believe me.
After receiving a positive answer, Theresa said, "We, the Prisoners, have a certain amount of power in the Comossos Islands. With our help, you can complete the control of the Comossos Islands more quickly. We can even help you make the Comossos Islands your territory."
Helot asked: "What is the exchange?"
"We no longer expect you to join us, but we also don't want you to help the Bradley family. This magical archipelago is our gift to you. We hope you will stay away from the empire and quietly watch the revenge that is about to happen."
The spread of the book "Blood Rose" shows that the prisoners have reached a consensus and have introduced a new king who is about to be enthroned.
Helot said, "What if I don't accept this gift?"
"You will not be able to leave the Comossos Islands. Even if we don't kill you, the Comossos Biological Research Association will kill you. If you die, the undead army of the Claulund family will no longer be a threat. This should be the reason why Bradley appointed you as the governor of the Comossos Islands. He wants you to recover this territory or die here."
Helot smiled and said, “Regarding this appointment, everyone can give a seemingly reasonable explanation based on their own standpoint, but the real reason is probably only known by one person.
I don't need you to give me the Comossa Islands because I want them; and you can't force me to accept them if I don't want them.
In this internal struggle within the empire, the Claulund family stands on the side of... the empire."
Helot waved his hand, and a line was drawn on the beach between him and Theresa.
This answer obviously exceeded Theresa's expectations. After all, Helot had always been neutral and had never expressed his intention to take sides.
Theresa asked anxiously, "Why did you make this decision? I think it is in your best interest to remain neutral. When the winner is decided, then obey the victor. No matter who owns the empire, Claulund is one of the most prominent families."
Helot said disapprovingly: "I did think so at first. But as I learned more and more about the nature of you, the prisoner, I became more and more certain... you cannot win."
"How can you be so sure?" Theresa was very unconvinced: "You should know how powerful the Executioner is. We even created a post-sequence Extraordinary Level 4, and he has a complete dark family bloodline.
We also received support from many nobles. Bradley trusted the emerging merchants and touched upon the power that originally belonged to the nobles. Most importantly, the Bradley family violated the oath of their ancestors and swung the butcher knife at their brothers!
We just want to take back what is rightfully ours!
The Claulund family also had their territory occupied by the Bradley family, and even their dukedom was stripped away. We should stand together!"
Theresa became more and more excited as she spoke.
The prisoners had always believed that the decline of the Claulund family was due to the embezzlement of the Bradley family, which had caused the founding family to suffer humiliation for hundreds of years. Now that they were offering an olive branch, Helotte should have been happy to accept it, but she never thought that the Claulund family would choose to stand on the side of Bradley.
And the emperor of the empire has not yet returned the ducal crown to the Claulund family.
She couldn't figure it out, she really couldn't figure it out!
And Helot has never had any extra thoughts about the title of duke, and his only motivation is simply because he is the current patriarch of the Claulund family.
What's more, he ascended the throne and became king in the original world. When he put on the crown, there didn't seem to be anything special about it. It was just a heavy metal crown.
Helot had seen the pinnacle of things, so Bradley's fight with the torturer seemed like child's play to him.
There is no permanent power, no permanent wealth.
Of course, Helot knew that Theresa would not understand what he said to her.
"On the Miracle Island, I met the rebels, who had a hysterical belief in independence. In order to achieve their goal, they attacked the industrial park and cooperated with it, selling monsters and people in exchange for weapons. They only thought about independence, but didn't think about who they were really fighting for.
You too...
Revenge cannot support a grand narrative!
Although you have mastered the most advanced post-sequence technology, your thinking is still stuck in the past few hundred years.
I will not side with a losing cause. I have more important things to do, and that is more meaningful than yours.”
Helot looked up at the rainbow bridge in the distant sky, a wonder that could only be created by natural magic.
Theresa couldn't help but ask, "What's the matter?"
"The first step is to own the Comosso Islands. I don't need anyone to give it to me. I can take it myself!"
