They say that among our officials, many have been taking bribes, even colluding with one another.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment William said this, the hearts of the officials present all tightened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the Crossbridge Empire in its current state, who wouldn’t take the chance to line their own pockets, unless they were a fool?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What William mentioned was not an isolated case, but rather something everyone knew yet never spoke of.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one had expected William to throw out such an explosive accusation during today’s Royal Council.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, Jacoff and Troy both sensed that something was amiss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They wisely kept silent, waiting to see how the matter would unfold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Aurek heard those words, his face instantly darkened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Officials who betray the Empire by stealing from within—I, as emperor, will never tolerate such corruption!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In the Empire’s current situation, the most important matter is to root out these parasites. The best way is to execute a batch of them immediately.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such killing intent in his tone made the officials’ faces turn pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Aurek suddenly fixed his gaze on Troy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Troy, you are the Empire’s Minister of Police. Investigating corruption is your responsibility. So tell me—why has the Empire fallen to this state?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Caught off guard by the emperor’s question, Troy hesitated for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as an old fox of the political arena, he quickly came up with a reasonable excuse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your Majesty, in recent years serious crimes have greatly increased, and the Ministry of Police has been overwhelmed with cases. We simply don’t have the manpower. So—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His intention was to shift the blame onto William’s faction, implying it was their policies that had failed, resulting in the surge of crimes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet to Troy’s surprise, Aurek did not become angry. Instead, he smiled faintly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Troy, you’ve truly worked hard during this time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Since the Ministry of Police cannot manage everything, I will have Heimerdinger take the lead in establishing a Procurator’s Office.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"From this day forward, the Procurator’s Office’s main duty will be to hunt down corrupt officials and bring them to justice.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Troy could respond, Aurek’s eyes turned sharply toward Heimerdinger, his tone firm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heimerdinger, I am entrusting this matter to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will see it done, Your Majesty!\" Heimerdinger answered immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time Troy regained his senses, his face was already twisted in frustration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without realizing it, part of his power had been stripped away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Supervising the officials had always been the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Police.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, without even asking for his consent, a portion of that authority had been handed elsewhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your Majesty, this doesn’t seem very appropriate...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurek’s expression remained calm as he replied with a faint smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There is nothing inappropriate. Just now, I asked you, and you admitted your Ministry could not handle everything.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Right now, stamping out corruption is a top priority for the Empire. Allowing Heimerdinger to create the Procurator’s Office is simply helping you share the burden.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Troy could continue arguing, Aurek’s face suddenly grew cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Minister Troy, are you questioning my decision? Or is it that you have no desire to punish corrupt officials?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though his voice was quiet, it carried the full weight of imperial authority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Troy immediately lowered his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, Your Majesty, I didn’t mean it that way.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good. Then this matter is settled.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurek’s icy gaze swept across the chamber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you voluntarily return your ill-gotten wealth before being investigated, I will pardon you from the death penalty.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But if you are caught—then I will show no mercy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His words, heavy as stone, instantly broke the officials’ composure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And so, with those final declarations, today’s Royal Council drew to a close.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jacoff and Troy watched Aurek’s retreating figure, hatred smoldering in their eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They quickly lowered their heads and left the chamber, their faction’s officials following close behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was clear to all that this matter would not end peacefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Royalist Party’s officials gathered together, their voices low in discussion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is His Majesty preparing to move against them?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But I doubt it will be so simple.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even so, isn’t this exactly what we’ve been waiting for?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though opinions differed, they all agreed on one point: since the emperor had chosen to act, he must have the strength to back it up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps it was time for the Royalist Party to take the initiative and strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back in his residence, Aurek’s mood was at its peak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Troy could never have imagined falling right into his trap, having his authority cut apart without lifting a finger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even more exciting for Aurek was the result of last night’s strike against the Unicorn Trading Guild—he had harvested 3,000 Emperor Points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now he was even considering establishing an intelligence and assassination bureau, staffed entirely with the Elemental Assassins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These assassins were one hundred percent loyal, and their abilities were perfectly suited for intelligence work. They were the ideal choice for such an organization.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, Aurek exchanged for a [Special Unit Enhancement Potion] from the shop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He ordered the Gold Assassin to drink it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A violent surge of energy coursed through the air, and the Gold Assassin successfully advanced to Hero Rank lv9!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The strength it now radiated left Aurek deeply satisfied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even against Master Rank opponents, the Gold Assassin could hold its own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At last, Aurek could set aside his immediate worries about the red-robed Archbishop Austin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The remaining 1,900 Emperor Points he spent on upgrading the Emperor’s Scepter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The benefits were obvious—upon reaching level 25, the scepter allowed him to summon fifty Elemental Assassins each day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only that, their base strength had also risen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Freshly summoned Elemental Assassins now started at Elite Rank lv9.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And those from the earliest batches had already reached Expert Rank lv1.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Aurek noticed a message flashing in the shop interface: stock replenished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He immediately opened it, and there, he saw a brand new item!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Random Unit Summon Card]Price: 10,000 Emperor Points\u003C\u002Fp>",1017,"2026-05-30T04:13:42.167Z","2026-06-01T04:30:17.337Z",1,"novelbin.me","630ffa36af933437862bb7454a552882275e4dda48aa59593fd84edd2b262770","summoning-millions-of-gods-daily-my-strength-equ-chapter-40","summoning-millions-of-gods-daily-my-strength-equ-chapter-38",690,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsummoning-millions-of-gods-daily-my-strength-equ-cover.jpg"]
