The villain queen eavesdropped on my inner thoughts and won't let me lie down?

She also took the opportunity to test whether this way of thinking had the potential to be promoted.

Those who could join the Eternal Night Empress's cabinet and were currently sitting in the Hall of Political Affairs were not fools.

Everyone has a brain, it's just that they don't usually use it.

It's like in the landline era, everyone could memorize commonly used phone numbers, and there were even TV shows that held competitions for memorizing numbers.

But later, everyone had a mobile phone, with hundreds of phone numbers stored in their address book, how many people would still memorize a large number of phone numbers?

The people of the Empire are the same.

Why think for yourself when you can use magic to search for the truth of a case with one click?

It wasn't until this wave encountered the gods' shielding, and all the mages were dumbfounded, that the superiority of Roger's new way of thinking became apparent.

So, when Roger was playing deductive reasoning, everyone followed his train of thought and realized that this was indeed a good thing.

It's the kind that is easy to learn but difficult to master. If used well, it can lead to many things that everyone usually ignores.

This time, Roger did indeed use this method to solve the case in the shortest amount of time.

Otherwise, if it dragged on like this, even if a lot of effort was spent searching the entire city, it might not amount to anything, and in the end, that group of believers would still escape under the protection of the gods, becoming an unsolved case.

After listening, everyone also recognized that the mastermind behind the Audu Blood Night was the Church of the Goddess of War.

It also fits her consistent style.

However, concrete evidence still needs to wait for Lord Roger to successfully capture and obtain the believers of the Goddess of War, preferably capturing that War High Priest Josda, to be the best reason for the Empire to start a war.

"I wonder when Lord Brando will have results in the search for the believers of the Goddess of War?" The Minister of Military Affairs asked impatiently.

"The stage should already be set, it just depends on how loyal those believers are to the Goddess of War."

The Eternal Night Empress repeated the crooked idea that Roger had come up with, and couldn't help but smile.

Of course, she felt very relieved and happy.

It was both luring the snake out of its hole and a severe slap in the face to the Goddess of War.

After listening, the cabinet ministers had different expressions as the image of the Goddess of War having close contact with a breeding pig appeared in their minds.

It's a bit outrageous, but it's also very effective.

"This time, there's really no need to search, those fanatical believers will jump out on their own."

"So that kid wasn't bragging, but had already thought of this trick at the cabinet meeting?"

"Damn it, Dio really showed off!"

"This kind of madman who uses people's hearts to the extreme, he's crazy but has a reason to be crazy..."

To be honest, although the cabinet ministers were wholeheartedly for the country, they couldn't help but have a little expectation to see Dio make a fool of himself.

After all, who wouldn't feel a little upset after being publicly criticized like that?

Moreover, who wasn't a genius young/middle-aged person when they joined the cabinet?

But now the fact before them is that Dio was not bragging.

Not only did he confirm the camp of the mastermind behind the scenes in the fastest time, but he also successfully fulfilled his promise of no need to search.

The face-slapping came too fast like a ruthless tornado, and several cabinet members who valued face wished they could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

"Alright, everyone, don't dwell on what has already happened. What we need to do now is to think about how to take down the Beastman Royal Court in the fastest time."

The Eternal Night Empress appreciated the ministers' mixed expressions.

She was also very proud and smug.

My people are capable; you are not!

Roger was brought into the cabinet by her own efforts. The better and more brilliant he performed, the more it could prove Her Majesty's ability to recognize talent.

"Understood!"

The cabinet ministers didn't dare to slack off either, and worked hard to come up with ideas with all their might.

Before, everyone was taunted by Roger's self-exposure, and they were just angry and resentful, preparing to unanimously encourage Dio, uniting together.

In their subconscious, they felt that this little guy who did things without regard for the consequences would definitely not be able to grasp the complex political situation of the Empire.

He was just bold and wrote the historical materials truthfully, how would he know how to be a cabinet minister?

As a result, the next day, Roger took office on the front line of the Audu Blood Case, and completed the task that everyone feared like a tiger in a few hours.

This was a real proof of ability, that guy was really more than just bold.

Now, the threat Dio brought to everyone was even greater, from a catfish to a great shark.

Everyone didn't even bother with infighting, and all took out their best methods and the best state to respond to every question from the Empress.

This cabinet suddenly became competitive!

You must know that there is currently a vacancy for the Minister of Finance, which is attracting everyone's attention.

That is a very high-ranking position in the cabinet, and they don't want the Empress to arrange Dio for it in the end.

A low-ranking Minister of History had already confronted them.

If Dio became the Minister of Finance, with his madman-like words and deeds, wouldn't he be riding on their heads and criticizing them?

Currently, the seating arrangement of the Qing Teng Empire's cabinet is Right Prime Minister, Left Prime Minister, Secretary-General, Chief Magic Advisor, and then the Minister of Finance is ranked fifth.

Because financial issues are indeed the most important thing in a country.

If Roger performs outstandingly, he is likely to be assigned to that position...

Then wouldn't they, these old seniors, lose face?

So this cabinet meeting is more efficient than before.

Everyone racked their brains and scrambled to undertake the difficult tasks that they used to shirk several times.

Especially Margaret, she knew one more thing than others, that is, Dio first proposed the action of pretending to be a restoration army.

This shows that Dio also has great talent in military affairs!

Isn't this time's lure the snake out of its hole also in line with the art of war?

Other ministers are afraid that Dio will steal the position of Minister of Finance.

She thought one step further, what if the Eternal Night Empress appreciates Dio and directly replaces her, the Left Prime Minister?

In terms of coming up with bad ideas, Dio is obviously worse than her!

That kid is full of bad ideas!

So she is also desperately turning her little brain, showing the best level of her life.

The monarch and ministers worked together to quickly negotiate the detailed battle plan to attack the Beastman Royal Court.

Feeling "high morale", the Eternal Night Empress couldn't help but be proud.

She must give a big thumbs up to her imperial skills!

Now this Qing Teng Empire, although the Audu Blood Night suffered heavy losses, it is also a rare good situation after the founding of the country.

The cabinet ministers are all working hard, the stubborn factions of the parliament have been brutally purged, and the nobles to the imperial citizens are all in high spirits, and the people of the seventeen countries are in their hearts toward the empire.

Her control over this empire has reached an unprecedented new peak.

Of course, a very important point is that her strength has also reached a new peak.

With so many favorable conditions, even if the target is the most core and valued area of the Goddess of War's church, the Eternal Night Empress is holding her breath, wanting to step forward and test the damage on her side...

At this time, layers of clouds piled up in the sky, and there was a faint sound of thunder.

The Eternal Night Empress got up and said excitedly: "Is the Goddess of War angry? I want to see your incompetent and furious side!"

......

......

Just as the Eternal Night Empress was vigorously starting the pre-war meeting, Roger, who had returned to the headquarters of the City Defense Army, was still calmly preparing his plan to lure the snake out of its hole.

His vision for the Empire's war is actually a series of linked plans:

After grasping the conclusive evidence that the Church of the Goddess of War was secretly playing tricks, release the news to create domestic public opinion;

At the same time, hire water armies to publish that this is the God of Nature framing the Goddess of War, so that the Empress shows hesitation;

At this time, according to the several secret intelligence he has mastered in the game plot, provoke the relationship between the Beastmen and Elves, which already exists as a mortal enemy.

At that time, even if these two countries do not directly fight, they will definitely enter a state of confrontation and mutually involve their energy;

At this time, the Qing Teng Empire showed evidence pointing to the God of Nature, and the voices in the country demanding war against the Elven Empire soared, in fact, taking advantage of the Beastman Royal Court's relaxation to sneak attack...

If it is finally confirmed that the God of Nature had a brain twitch and changed his style, the last step will be reversed.

Roger believes that this series of smokescreens will infinitely increase the Empire's innate advantages, and achieve its desired strategic goals at the smallest cost.

But also because his brain circuit is too normal, and he feels that war is a very cautious thing, so he has not discussed it with the Eternal Night Empress in advance.

Naturally, he would not have thought that in the Imperial Palace, the Eternal Night Empress had already drawn a simple and crude straight line between the two countries.

In the game, the protagonist group activates morale, and the Empress's expedition is already in the late stage of the Empire, so naturally, she must be fully prepared and choose a suitable opponent.

But now the Empire is like the rising sun, and the morale is strong and different. The strength and mind of the Empress and the people are different, so Roger was misled by the game.

Roger's biggest wish now is to find the War High Priest Josda, and then kill him.

He also reasoned that Josda went to the interior of the City of Mysteries before, definitely had other goals, and is likely not to have left at this time.

As long as that guy dares to show up, Roger is ready with a series of traps waiting for him.

In this regard, the Yong Scholar, who once controlled the protagonist group to serve the gods, has a strategic initiative in intelligence.

Although the game plot officially opened and reached its peak ten years later, the time point when the gods began to lay out was very early.

At this moment, several strongholds in the City of Mysteries that have been used by the protagonist group already exist, or are under construction and preparation.

And the places where believers like to appear, the action routes, and several specific coordinates for exchanging information, Roger also knows very well.

After all, he has served as the vanguard of the Tianming Army, engaged in many underground activities in this City of Mysteries, and personally disintegrated the behemoth of the Qing Teng Empire...

So, he is a mole from the future. Do you think this harm is great to the church?

City Defense Army Headquarters, after Roger brought back the Eternal Night Empress's approval and award, everyone's work enthusiasm instantly soared by 200%.

And the recognition and loyalty to Roger also increased by 150%.

In the past, the City Defense Army was a pit, doing all kinds of dirty and tiring work, and it was the kind that had no sense of existence when done well, and was particularly conspicuous when done poorly, and would be embarrassed by a lot of officials in Audu.

As for the awards, they always belonged to the expeditionary army that made great contributions outside and opened up territories for the empire.

In addition, the commander of the City Defense Guard was mediocre in ability before, and had no pursuit or ambition, and everyone followed him for several years of hard life.

As a result, Lord Dio came for only a few hours, and directly made the Audu Blood Night case progress a lot.

After entering the palace, he brought back the Empress's award, and will give the City Defense Army more funding in the future.

With such a leader, everyone naturally voluntarily follows.

The Empress chef is the largest fan circle in the entire empire.

Being able to get her approval, the City Defense Army feels that it is worth it no matter how hard they work.

Therefore, at this moment, any small order from Lord Dio has unparalleled appeal in the City Defense Army.

Everyone is not working with the mentality of "obediently doing it, he will take the blame", but giving full play to their subjective initiative to complete the work as quickly as possible, waiting for the Empress's next round of awards.

The entire City Defense Army Headquarters is in such high spirits that it doesn't look like work, but like elementary school students before a spring outing.

Under the drive of this atmosphere, Roger almost burned up.

No, I have to lie flat, my mentality of touching fish and working cannot be broken!

He took a deep breath to stabilize his emotions.

Although the Audu Blood Night had a great impact on him personally, he would rather not lie flat these days, and do something for the empire.

But in non-essential cases, he still hopes that his emotions are stable, and rehearse for the leisurely life after getting away.

That is, helping the Empress govern the country, you can also lie down and govern it!

Therefore, Roger earnestly persuaded the subordinates of the City Defense Army:

"Calm down, calm down, everyone, work is work, but also cherish your body."
