Congratulations, You've Become an NPC - Chapter 73 Please contribute to the empire
When everyone’s eyes fell on this group of people.
This group of people slowly opened their eyes, turned their faces and glanced at the people around them.
“So, you think it’s our responsibility?”
It was a man in the group who spoke.
He was young, probably around thirty years old, with a sinister face and twinkling eyes.
The muscles hidden under the thin clothes bulged toweringly, showing the strength of the man.
While speaking, he also looked at the leader of the defense organization.
There was clearly no murderous intent in those eyes, but they made people feel waves of oppression.
Under this sense of oppression, the leader of the defense organization quietly looked away.
“I just raised a possibility. I personally believe that the negligence in this matter has nothing to do with you.”
Weakly, he said.
The man glanced sideways at him, hummed slightly, and stopped talking.
However, just because the man stopped talking, it didn’t mean that the people with him stopped talking.
Another younger man, probably only in his twenties, an ordinary-looking young man scratched his head and said honestly.
“Anyway, please don’t throw the responsibility on us, okay?”
No one paid any attention to him.
Everyone’s eyes were on the man and the other woman.
This young man is just an addition to this meeting.
Everyone knows that the right to speak lies in the hands of the other two people.
“Alas~”
“I really don’t know when you will see it again.”
“I told you, it has nothing to do with us!”
In this increasingly depressing atmosphere, the man opened his eyes again.
This time his tone was not as calm as before. Instead, it was full of irritability, as if he was ready to take action at any time.
“Or are you planning to become our enemy?”
After a pause, the man added.
“No, this is absolutely not possible.”
“No matter what, I will always believe in you.”
“Your organization has always fulfilled its duties, how could you fail to do so? This is just a little joke.”
“Yes, we are looking at you just because we haven’t seen each other for a long time. There is absolutely no other reason, right?”
Upon hearing the man’s words, the round table meeting immediately became more noisy.
Everyone quickly denied it.
Only then did they remember the man’s identity.
A member of the Military Council and one of the most powerful people in the empire.
This is not something they can offend casually.
The Military Council is a special department that controls all the military power of the empire. They are willing to attend this meeting just to give face, and they want to throw the responsibility on their heads. This is really too old and young – they are not afraid of bifurcation.
Even His Majesty the Emperor will not criticize the Military Commission more than necessary.
“Okay, everyone.”
“Let’s continue with the meeting.”
While everyone was hurriedly defending themselves, the woman next to the man opened her eyes and spoke.
“Tina——”
The man looked at Tina, only to see Tina shake her head at him, her clear eyes sweeping across the field.
“We are gathered here now to discuss matters related to the mutation, not to shirk responsibility from each other, right?”
“What Your Excellency Tina said is absolutely true.”
After Tina finished speaking, someone immediately echoed.
“In that case, let’s continue.”
Tina said calmly and tapped her fingers on the table.
Immediately, the authority regarding the Imperial Skynet was immediately mobilized, and countless images of the Royal Capital appeared in the center of the round table.
The crowds were noisy and chaotic, and the capital seemed to be rapidly turning into a lawless land.
“As you can see, the appearance of the royal capital is becoming disorderly, people are restless, and hidden criminal elements who are usually suppressed are beginning to take advantage of this opportunity to make moves.”
“If this continues, there will be huge casualties among civilians and production capacity will be reduced.”
“I think this is not what you want to see.”
Tina said coldly, looking across each person’s face.
There was anger, helplessness, pain, and unwillingness on the faces of these people.
The only thing missing is the sadness caused by civilian casualties.
“This group of unruly people! They will only cause trouble for others!”
Someone roared impatiently.
“I think now not only the royal capital, but also every place in the empire has fallen into chaos.”
“After all, the sky above us is not under the control of our empire and can be seen by the whole world.”
Tina nodded to the young man.
Immediately, the young man took out a document from his arms and threw it to the others.
“This is a report on the border.”
“The countries around us, except for the elves, are all ready to take advantage of this opportunity to do something.”
“Especially that group of orcs, they are trying their best to weaken our strength so that we can slow down our attack on them.”
“To do this, they are gathering forces at the border.”
Hearing this, the expressions of a bunch of people changed again.
“If the pace slows down in this regard, His Majesty will definitely be furious.”
“That’s right, only regarding this aspect, we need to suppress it strongly, and we cannot let His Majesty down!”
The two ministers of foreign affairs immediately stood up and said.
Are you kidding me? If such a thing really happened, it would not be the military commission that would be held accountable, but their foreign affairs department.
“I think so too.”
Tina pursed her lips and smiled, as if flowers were blooming.
“I plan to deploy 500,000 troops to garrison at the major borders and use this to deter the orcs.”
“In this case, they must not dare to act rashly.”
There is nothing wrong with Tina’s idea, and the two people from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs also agree.
“that……”
“I have a question.”
At this time, the people from the finance department who carefully looked at the documents Tina gave them raised their hands.
“But it doesn’t matter.”
Tina nodded.
“Your Excellency Tina’s method is indeed good, but I discovered something from this document.”
“Our troops at the border are less than half a million, and there are not that many defenders in the cities near the border.”
“Where do you get half a million to suppress border countries?”
Hearing this, Tina looked at the man.
Next, the man spoke.
“It’s very simple. Recruit troops where they are.”
“Expand the army until the number is sufficient.”
boom!
“No, such a large-scale recruitment will definitely trigger riots. Do you want the empire to fall into civil strife?”
Only the titular vigilante minister expressed his outrage.
“Calm down a little.”
The man smiled and waved. At this time, his mood became better.
“Unconditional conscription will of course lead to riots, but we can give people an irresistible offer so that people can vote voluntarily.”
“You mean?”
“Who in this world can refuse the temptation of money?”
The foreign minister frowned.
“Use money? Spend money to expand the army? This is indeed good, but does your military committee have so much reserve money? This is not a small amount of money.”
Hearing this, the man laughed even harder.
Then, he looked at Tina.
Tina was laughing too and stood up.
“The Military Council is known to be an incorruptible organization, so of course we don’t have that kind of money.”
“However, for the sake of the stability of the empire, we have to expand our army to deal with the severe situation in this situation.”
“so……”
Tina’s eyes scanned the surroundings again.
“I have no choice but to trouble you all and contribute to the empire.”
