Platinum Throne

It didn't take long for the flyers organized by Anna to be sent to Caroline's desk by the assistant mage.

"Thank you." Caroline nodded to the other party.

"No, it's not hard!" The assistant mage said loudly after arranging his clothes with excitement on his face.He saw Caroline smiling at him, blushing with excitement, turning his head and opening the door to go out, he turned around again and shouted to Caroline, "My lord! Thank you for your kindness to the Platinum Tower." Do everything!"

Caroline was stunned for a moment, then smiled, and nodded to the assistant mage: "Thank you very much for being here all the time. It is because of you, not me, that the Platinum Tower is still persisting."

The assistant mage nodded vigorously. He clenched his fist and slammed on his chest, bent towards Caroline, and then closed the door.

Caroline let out a slow breath.The assistant mage's robe is tight, narrow and short, and everything is light. It is no longer the long-sleeved mage robe of many years ago.This is the inspiration obtained from successive wars in the past few years. Everything should be simpler and more convenient for activities.Caroline pressed the bridge of her nose and rubbed it lightly. After a while, she looked down at the long list in her hand.

Anna is her trusted deputy and friend who has followed her for many years, and it is the same at this moment. The faction and power behind each person's name are carefully marked on it, so that Caroline can quickly sort out their relationship.Some of these names are familiar to Caroline, while others are not so familiar.It shows that the attitudes of these camps towards this meeting are not uniform.

The three-year battle has been a long tug-of-war for both the Tower of Platinum and the Alliance.War is like a meat grinder, throwing young blood from various countries and the Platinum Tower into it to fill a gully that seems never to be filled.The name of this chasm is Desire...

Caroline was a little lost in thought.The communicator on her wrist began to beep, and Caroline looked down at the name, then pursed her lips, and clicked on it.

A well-groomed man appeared on the other side of the light curtain. He looked at Caroline with a slight smile on his serious expression: "It seems that you are recovering well, Executive Officer."

Caroline looked back with a sullen face: "Sir, what's the matter?"

Rudolph pondered, and after a while, he replied: "You should already know that the war has dragged on for too long, and the parliament agreed to talk to the alliance. As a wartime executive, you should attend. Today is the first One day, you can take a break, and tomorrow, you need to attend a meeting."

Caroline couldn't help showing a sneering smile: "I thought you still remembered those unbelievable demands made by the alliance at the beginning... Are you planning to give in now? Give up the element pipeline to the alliance and pay a huge amount every year maintenance costs, and make all the blueprints public... You might as well give them the Platinum Tower."

"Caroline Martin!" Rudolph frowned, "Please restrain your temper."

"My temper!" Caroline stood up all of a sudden, and the seat scraped against the ground with a sharp and harsh sound, but no one paid attention to the sound.Caroline took two steps back and forth like a trapped animal, and finally looked at Rudolph, "Who told us that it was impossible? Who said that the dignity of the Platinum Tower should be maintained? This is yours. A decision or a decision of the whole council?"

Rudolph kept looking at Caroline, and there was a light in his blue eyes that Caroline didn't understand.After a while, he whispered: "Bella Nelson, it has been three years since she returned to the Platinum Tower. Norma Hill, she has not returned to the Platinum Tower for three years."

Caroline frowned, and after a while, she suddenly let out a mocking smile: "So what? Are you disappointed? Just shrink back? It's only been three years. How many years have the gods of Shenlinhai not appeared in How many years have there been no oracles in front of the believers? What about their believers? They are still chanting their names and proclaiming their miracles on this earth."

Rudolph tightly pursed his lips.

"And people like you still want to create gods and become believers of gods?"

"Shut up!" Rudolph's voice suddenly increased, and there was even a little panic in his usually calm eyes, "Is this what you should say? If someone finds out..."

Caroline looked at Rudolph quietly, and finally smiled: "Who else do you think doesn't know? You know everything you need to know."

Rudolph's lips trembled, and his eyes trembled.Caroline watched a drop of cold sweat slowly fall down Rudolph's forehead, but her heart was unusually calm.She finally understood that under the seemingly strong and calm ambition of the other party was a timid heart, just like a thief stealing. Once discovered, he would have nothing to hide from and only wanted to escape.

Caroline was silent, and after a while, she said in a deep voice: "I will come to the meeting. However, I hope you can also understand that this game has already started, and it is not that you can stop if you want to." .”

After a while, Rudolph replied: "You are forcing me...you are forcing the Platinum Tower."

Caroline laughed: "From the time you started planning, you should have thought of this answer, thinking of today's situation. You are still alive, not a complete failure from three years ago. The reason for this is not because of you, but because of you. Because of Norma Hill."

"You are crazy."

"The fanatics are all lunatics." Caroline patted her sleeves, straightened her neckline, restored an aristocratic politeness, and nodded to Rudolph, "That's it, let me know the meeting place and time. Give it to me, and I'll be there on time."

Then the figure on the other side of the light curtain disappeared.

Caroline looked around, and finally looked through the list, and after confirming that the words on it had been recorded in her mind, she burned it to ashes, then she tidied herself up and stepped out the door.

The sky outside was covered with cloudy clouds. The rain had stopped, but the clouds had not dissipated. In fact, this kind of weather had lasted for a long time because of the "blessing" of the earth priests.If you stand on the periphery of the Platinum Tower, you can see the bright sun not far away. Compared with the depression of the Platinum Tower, it seems like heaven and hell.

The Tower of Platinum has shown that sunlight can make people feel happy and optimistic.Such scenes are also part of the war, which can have the effect of disintegrating emotions.But now no one will study such minutiae.The war has dragged everyone into the water, and everyone is thinking about how to kill the enemy faster and more efficiently, instead of studying more, broader, and things that can make more people better.

Caroline thought wildly as she walked forward.

Centaurs ran past on the road, and when they saw Caroline, they stopped and saluted Caroline.Caroline also returned the gift, and the centaurs smiled and said, "Then I will continue to patrol."

Caroline nodded. Just as she was about to leave, she stopped and called out to the centaur: "Is there anyone else in the temple?"

"Yes, as you know, there are always people there, but now that the fighting has stopped temporarily, it should be less." The centaur replied.

Caroline hummed and said goodbye to the centaur.

The centaur ran away happily.A whistle sounded in the sky, and the winged man fluttered his wings and flew high, so that the season without rain was their favorite time.The winged people's arrow array is very famous. In the early days of the war, they won many victories for the Platinum Tower, but since the clouds shrouded the sky, the advantage of the winged people has been greatly reduced.

Caroline walked forward slowly while thinking about it.The Platinum Tower itself is a huge city. It goes up layer by layer. Standing on the edge, you can see the huge city below the tower, the city that never sleeps.But now standing on the edge, you can only see ruins. Some people in the city have left, while some have been taken into the tower, fighting against the coalition forces day after day.Caroline wondered how many of these people would regret it, but they had no chance of regretting it either.Caroline looked over the incomplete city, all the way to the front.If you look at it this way, the entire Platinum Tower seems to be surrounded by a sea of ​​people. It is the coalition forces, headed by the Light Empire, which almost involves the entire human country in the central and eastern continents.

Caroline stood silently, her military uniform rattled by the wind. After a while, she turned her head and walked towards the temple again.

This temple is where the war began to rise, and the temple is always full of rich natural elements.People will feel calm in it, so this is the place where ordinary people in the Platinum Tower like to go.Although the centaur told Caroline that there were not many people in the temple, Caroline still saw dozens of people of various races nesting in various parts of the temple, bowing their heads towards the same place.

Caroline looked in that direction, and there was a huge statue standing there. It was a figure Caroline was familiar with, but the face was smooth.There is no specific face, which helps the imagination of believers.

"Hope the war ends soon."

"Hopefully we can get the final victory."

"We are the party of justice. I hope that all the damn coalition forces will die."

"Hopefully our homeland can come back."

Caroline heard low voices from all around, and these small voices merged into the stone statue, like light spots one by one.Caroline also bowed her head, folded her hands, and prayed in a low voice.

"I hope the mentor can come back soon. He can appear in front of me soon."
