Platinum Throne

Rules are the foundation of Norma's actions.

Breaking the rules is Norma's bottom line.

Caroline coughed hard, and she felt the temperature of the hands pinching her neck getting hotter and hotter, and even blisters rose on her neck.And everything in front of her gave her a strange illusion, maybe it was more accurate to say that intuition, of course, it could also be said that she was thinking with absolute rationality pulled away by the pain.

Humans don't have estrus.

In the same way, human beings create rules and despise the rules. The more capable people are, the less they care about the rules.

So what exactly is Norma's "body"?

Caroline smiled lowly, and she put her hand on Norma's face. The other's face was no longer as smooth as she remembered, but a little rough...like a scale.But it's hot, not cold like a reptile.

It seems that it will not be a dragon or other dragon mixed blood.

"Is this how you treat your savior?" Caroline struggled to squeeze a word out of her throat. Because of the high temperature, her voice became extremely hoarse and unpleasant, and she seemed to be cutting her throat with a knife when she spoke.It made her voice sound like that of an old woman.

"You're a traitor," Norma replied, like a ruthless reptile.

Sure enough, emotion cannot shake this woman.

Caroline sighed silently, she smiled again, and pointed to the silver star on her chest with difficulty: "My heart of loyalty is still there. The platinum...heart...is still...recognizing my...loyalty ..." She began to feel more and more difficult to breathe, and every time the air entered, there was a strong pain.Caroline realized that time was running out for her.She even felt waves of fatigue coming from her mind, followed by a sense of comfort.

It was the lack of oxygen in the mind, the hallucinations that had brought relief, and soon, she would slip into a coma and die at the hands of the person who had been closest to her.

Caroline tried her best to raise her smile, and finished the last sentence: "...Platinum... Tower... Private fighting is forbidden."

This is the absolute rule of the Tower of Platinum!

The next moment, the palm on the neck was suddenly loosened, and Caroline still inevitably fell into a coma.

Only at the moment when her consciousness drifted away, Caroline raised a faint smile.

She won.

Caroline was woken up by the chirping birds, and before she even opened her eyes, she felt the glare of the sun.Caroline raised her head and put her palms on her eyelids to ease her discomfort.This movement was extremely difficult, and the throat was sore, but it was refreshing, as if it had been dealt with to a certain extent.Of course, the body is also very sore and limp, and there are bursts of burning pain in the back, as if it was scratched before.However, the previous lack of oxygen caused head pain, and the nerves were still jumping excitedly, as if they were about to jump out of her flesh immediately, pulling out a long and intense pain.

There was a burnt smell in the air, and Caroline could smell a little meat from it.Her stomach quickly rumbled, and then Murphy's grumpy voice beat.

"You destroyed another city! Are you a mobile bomb!!" Murphy slapped the table vigorously, "How long has it been! How long has it been! Next time you contact me, will you tell me that you destroyed it again? a city!!!"

"Of course not. Also, keep your voice down." It was Norma's voice.

Soon, Anna's voice also came over: "Where is my colleague Caroline? She should go with you to investigate."

Norma fell silent.Anna seemed to notice something from this, her brows frowned, and her tone became tougher: "Your occupation rank is higher than that of Caroline, but she called you a mentor..."

"Anna." Caroline interrupted Anna's words. Her voice was so harsh that even she couldn't help frowning.Caroline reached out to touch her neck, but Norma had already reached out to stop her.

"Stay still, you have ongoing burns to your neck that have severely affected your vocal cords. You should talk less and rest more."

Caroline listened in silence, then turned her gaze to the light curtain.

Now that Caroline had fully adapted to the current light, it looked like it was close to noon, of course, it could not be ruled out that it might have been several days.She was lying on a piece of green grass at the moment, judging from the scorched marks on the ground around her and the dew on her clothes, she might not have moved her position since she fell into a coma.This gave Caroline a new level of understanding of Norma's "no pity and cherishing jade".

And in front of Caroline, there is a light curtain, which is an efficient communication tool produced by the Platinum Tower.Judging from the clearly identifiable face of the other party, the surrounding magic power and elemental content are very stable and belong to the normal state.

Anna huddled in front of the screen and watched Caroline.Caroline opened her mouth, and before she could say anything, Norma spoke: "She can't speak now."

Caroline was inexplicably moved by this subtle protection.Caroline touched her neck subconsciously, but was grabbed by Norma again.Caroline's heart was once again moved...

Maybe this is an addiction to being abused, and even a little favor from the other party will be magnified?This is not a good sign...

"Caroline Martin. If you are currently being coerced or threatened, please blink." Anna said, staring at Caroline.

Caroline felt a little helpless, was even this friend going to be assimilated by the immutable old-fashioned atmosphere of the Platinum Tower?It is obvious right now that her life is in the hands of Norma, is it useful to blink.

Caroline shrugged, and then Murphy pulled Anna away: "Go away, you hateful outsider! We still have business to discuss! Caroline Martin is still alive and well!"

Anna frowned and moved away, she cursed in a low voice: "Despicable untouchable."

Murphy confronted: "An outsider with a different heart."

"Infighting is prohibited in the Platinum Tower." The last two people's chatter stopped in Norma's plain discussion.

Norma outlined her experience.Caroline was also listening. She noticed that Norma did not let go of her hand. She moved a little curiously, and Norma gave her a warning glance.Caroline hooked her lips, and really didn't move anymore.

"We will report to the committee." The last two replied seriously.There may be dissatisfaction internally, but externally, the Platinum Tower has always been united, and the promises given are quite consistent.

Norma nodded and closed the light curtain.

When Norma turned her head, she saw Caroline smiling at her.Norma remained silent, and gently raised her monocular glasses. She was not yet able to accurately judge how to face this woman who was almost strangled by herself.Fortunately... Norma glanced at Caroline's neck, she can't speak now, so Norma can be more natural.

"I didn't expect the tutor to be very cautious. The other party came after you, and you didn't even say these key questions."

It's just that Norma's breath was too early. The next moment, she heard Caroline's voice. It was different from the usual soft and charming voice, but it was word by word, with a strange Monotonous syllables, also can not distinguish between male and female.It was intermittent at the beginning, and it became smoother as it progressed.

Seeing Norma's shocked eyes, Caroline raised her chin with a little pride.

"Air can transmit sound, and vibrating the air with magic can simulate speech. This is what you taught me."

Norma opened her mouth, once again impressed by the creativity of the young woman in front of her: "This is really... very good..."

Obviously this is a remark against one's will.

As Norma has repeatedly emphasized, if Caroline is a person who is willing to devote all her attention to her studies, she will be an excellent person, and she can even become one of the few people who have reached the top of this main material world .She is talented and smart, and draws inferences about other cases from one instance.After experimenting with my own ideas, my voice became smoother and smoother, although there were occasional volume problems caused by uncontrollable problems.But after just a few minutes, even this small flaw was completely gone.

Perhaps because of the novelty, Caroline's voice became chattery, more annoying than usual.

"Cleverly transfer your own crisis to the Platinum Tower, your mentor has a lot of thoughtfulness."

"Are you so relieved of me? Didn't you want to kill me the night before?"

Norma coughed and tried to explain: "I believe in Platinum Heart's judgment..."

"This is really a woman's mouth, a deceitful ghost."

Norma fell silent.She had realized that whatever she said would be useless, because Caroline only wanted to say it.

Norma stared blankly into the distance, listening to the noise around her, one after another.

"I'm thirsty."

Norma waved the water element and gathered it into a water polo and handed it to Caroline.

"I'm hungry."

Norma handed Caroline a piece of blackened coke.Caroline turned it over, thinking that it would be as amazing as her original work.After squeezing hard, the coke turned into black ash and fell down one after another, leaving nothing inside.

"Mentor, you have changed from wanting to strangle me to wanting to poison me, right?" Caroline smiled and looked at Norma.

Knowing that she was wrong, Norma lowered her head: "No... I'm just not very good at it."

If that's what you're not good at, you're being humble.

The corners of Caroline's mouth rose even wider, and she gradually realized that Norma's attitude was too sincere and honest, as if with the intention of making amends.With the great benefits in front of me, how could Caroline let it go: "Then, please cook me a delicious meal."

Norma looked ugly: "I... won't."

"It's simple, how you cook the potion is how you cook the ingredients."

Caroline gave a friendly reminder, and she looked at Norma from dissatisfaction to final compromise.In the end, the great magister who claimed to never waste energy on such time-wasting things finally stood up resignedly: "I see."
