Platinum Throne

Caroline looked away, still smiling, with her head lifted slightly, her back straight, her hands crossed over her belly, revealing the white gloves she wore on them.

This is a typical etiquette of human nobles.

All the humans present smiled kindly at Caroline.Caroline looked back one by one, returning the same smile.

If there was anyone who could contend and argue with Norma Hill during these three months, it was Caroline Martin.

Norma raised her head slightly, and looked at Caroline. She put her fingers on the table, curled up her fingers slightly, and then let go.

"You're late." Norma's voice echoed in the meeting room. Her head was slightly raised on her pale and slender neck, her expression neither disgusted nor accused.It seems that this sentence is just a statement, just a statement.

"Yes, my respected mentor." Caroline's right leg was slightly back, and she bent slightly towards Norma. Her long hair fell down and fell on the roundness that could not be concealed by the robe.

The tutor is intimate and charming, with a submissive and arrogant attitude, full of human aristocratic affectation and sarcasm.

Norma's eyes flicked past Caroline.

"Oh, human." The centaur snorted.

"My dear old friend, be quiet, this is a friendly army." The dwarf said slowly, she looked at Caroline, her eyes stayed on the silver star on the platinum tower on her robe for a moment, and then slowly received it back.

"I thought you wouldn't like humans." The centaur frowned.

The dwarf shrugged his shoulders: "Who made this world made up of interests, not one's own likes and dislikes? An enemy's enemy is a friend."

The centaur didn't speak anymore, she snorted, her front hooves impatiently scratched the floor, she folded her hands and turned her head aside.

Caroline walked towards Norma with unhurried steps.

Norma moved her hand slightly, she raised her head, her pale golden pupils stared at Caroline.

The surrounding voices did not know when they stopped, and everyone quietly watched the two gradually approaching.

At a suitable distance, Caroline stopped. The distance between the two of them was about five meters, not too close.Caroline smiled at Norma: "Please forgive me for being late, my dear tutor, can you tell me the content of today's meeting?"

Norma lowered her head, and her eyes scanned the documents in front of her, which were densely written with words.Norma raised her head, her face was expressionless: "You should have a document, as a participant, this is a copy, if you don't receive the document, you have the right to complain to your assistant mage."

"Ah." Caroline spread her hands, her eyes were slightly bent, under the light refracted by the magic crystal, those eyes seemed to be shining like stars, "I was busy all night last night." She Blinking at Norma, he stretched out his right hand, with well-articulated fingers, slender roots, full of toughness and strength.

"The arm is still sore." Caroline elongated her voice, and Norma could even hear a little grievance from inside.

Norma lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes trembled for a moment, and then looked aside coldly: "Get a copy of the information for Teacher Martin, and guide her to where she should sit. Time is running out, please don't have anything else Irrelevant people or business have come to delay the meeting."

As the voice of the last sentence fell, the door opened by Caroline slammed shut, and the dissipated water element gathered again, and the cold air continuously emerged from the water element, and finally turned into a huge and icy block ice cubes.

The young assistant with freckles on his face responded in a bewildered manner, and looked at Caroline.Caroline didn't make things difficult for the poor assistant, she smiled at him and made a "please" gesture.The assistant pulled herself together and ushered Caroline to her seat, one of the bottom five.

After Caroline took her seat, the assistant brought a stack of materials and said softly, "Your Excellency, the meeting has just begun..."

"I just heard the general vote?" Caroline casually flipped through the information and looked up.

"Yes, yes." The assistant answered in a low voice, and he lowered his head, "We're at this point."

Caroline nodded, tapped the thick material with her fingers, and waved her hand lazily.The assistant breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly backed away. He turned his head, and Caroline sat on her seat, resting her chin in one hand, her eyes locked on Norma, her red lips were slightly raised, as if she was in deep thought, and then It seems to be... looking at...Norma very intently...?

The assistant felt that he must be thinking too much, so he quietly applied "refreshing" to himself, which finally cleared his mind up a bit.

"Your Excellency Magister Martin."

The time of leisurely listening and watching did not last long, and Caroline was called by her name enthusiastically.Caroline turned her head slightly, facing the oily and restless face.

Tsk, can't remember the name.

Caroline was silent for a moment, then smiled at the other party: "Your Excellency."

The other party smiled, and didn't care about Caroline's perfunctory attitude: "We need some time to discuss whether to use voting rights."

"Oh? Is it confirmed that everyone will vote against it?" Caroline leaned back, her palms folded into a hill, placed under her chin, looking cute and charming.

The man's face suddenly stiffened.Although he firmly believed that everyone would vote against it, Caroline still felt ashamed and indignant when such a thing was said.

"Of course it's not aimed at Mentor Hill, it just involves the common interests of everyone, so we should be cautious."

"Hmm." Caroline nodded noncommittally.She slid her fingers across the materials in front of her, tapped the map on it lightly, and when she raised her head, she looked at Norma, "Teacher, I'm late, so I need to confirm. The construction of the pipeline is Do you need multiple locations?"

Norma looked into Caroline's eyes quietly. Caroline had slightly raised corners of her eyes, and she was as charming as a vixen when she smiled.Of course, also as cunning as a little fox.

Norma lowered her eyes and nodded.

After listening to Caroline's words, the person watching quietly from the side suddenly realized something.And Caroline turned to look at him: "Your Excellency, my question has been answered, please feel free."

The man paused for a moment, then turned to look at the others.All the people here are from various countries and camps. Their positions are different, and they are even hostile to each other.But when facing the Platinum Tower, most of their attitudes are very similar.At this moment, after Caroline's inadvertent reminder, they were also keenly aware of the same problem.

There is only one ownership of the construction right, so what about the layout after the construction starts?Multiple locations, not inside the Platinum Tower, meant more possibilities and secret operations and arrangements.

Things like voting by the whole body should of course be placed at the most important node, not now.

"I abstain from voting." The first person said.

Followed by the second.

Not long after, more than half of the people have chosen to give up.If more than half, then there is no need to hold another vote.At this moment, the centaur bent down and whispered in Eva's ear, "Do you trust this woman?"

The dwarf's lovely eyes narrowed, narrow and sly: "The star on her breast is white. But the enemy of the enemy is a friend."

The white star symbolizes that its owner gave up his secular identity and completely belonged to the Platinum Tower.This is the color of the Tower of Platinum, whose master's loyalty cannot be questioned.

As for whether it is true or false, perhaps only the gods know.

"Since there is no problem with the ownership of the construction rights, we can discuss the next issue." Norma knocked on the table.

The room became quiet again, and everyone stared at Norma closely, waiting for a new round of confrontation.

By the time the meeting was over, it was already dark.The silver moon hangs in the middle of the sky, and at the edge of the sky, one of Ziyue's teeth is exposed.The crowd slowly walked out of the meeting room, with unconcealable exhaustion on their faces.Caroline raised her eyes, and Norma Hill was sorting out her own materials in front of the stage. Her head was lowered, and the chain of the monocle was hanging down. Following the master's movements, it was shaking gently. Under the light of the lamp, there are fine pieces, like the light of broken diamonds.

What a pleasing picture.

Caroline admired the beautiful picture scroll in front of her, her eyes flickering.Soon, the person in the painting raised his head, stared at Caroline coldly, his eyes were full of indifference: "What are you still doing here?"

Caroline's mouth drew an arc: "Appreciate the beauty."

So Norma lowered her head again, as if her question only needed an answer and had no other meaning.

"It really makes me sad..." Caroline lowered her voice, and rolled out a few indistinct words from her throat, passing by Norma's ears, like a breeze.

"Your Excellency Martin, so you didn't leave." The door was suddenly opened, and a man poked his head out, looked at Caroline, and smiled, "Tonight's banquet..."

Caroline frowned. From Norma's direction, she could clearly see the other's disdainful expression and impatient curled lips.But when Caroline turned her head, everything became gentle and calm again: "Of course, sir, I'll be right here."

Caroline stood up, she left her seat, glanced at Norma, and nodded politely to her, just like facing a stranger, with impeccable politeness.Soon, Caroline climbed up the steps, and Pingting's figure finally disappeared as the door closed.

In the middle of the night, Caroline walked towards her room with slow and firm steps. Her cheeks were slightly red, and the alcohol had not completely dissipated, but her green eyes were sober, and they only flashed in a very short moment. A little bit confused.

There was a person standing at the door, her back was slightly curved, she was staring at the closed door, as if she was thinking about something.Caroline subconsciously slowed down, for fear of scaring people away.

The distance between the two gradually approached.

5 meter

4 meter

3 meter

2 meter

1 meter

Norma turned around, her body tilted slightly, and she fell into Caroline's open arms.

"Do you need me tonight too?" Caroline rubbed the tip of her nose gently behind Norma's ear, and said softly, "My mentor."

"You talk a lot tonight." Norma answered impatiently.

Caroline felt the rising body temperature in her arms, and smiled meaningfully: "Drink the wine."
