Platinum Throne

Drowsy, dark sky.

Dark red, parched earth.

Caroline stood on the land, looking around in confusion.She knew that she was dreaming, and there was an indescribable weirdness in her heart, as well as a little bit of expectation.

This expectation reached its peak at the moment when the black shadow behind him enveloped him.

"Mentor..." Caroline's hand stroked the warm arm that surrounded her.The person behind him paused for a moment, pinched her chin with his slender and powerful hands, turned her head forcefully, and kissed her with a strong, indifferent and lingering kiss.

The earth split open in an instant, and lava surged up from the dry and cracked land. They flooded Caroline, making her both painful and sinking.

"Bella Nelson... when did you meet her?" the man behind asked, his voice strong.

"Every...everyone in the Platinum Tower knows her." Caroline replied in a low voice. She seemed to feel her soul rising, being abandoned high and falling heavily.

There was a low laugh from the person behind, but there was no smile: "Of course. Everyone knows her. So do you know me? Know who I am, know who I really am, you know?" "

"I..." Caroline narrowed her eyes and looked up.

One eye suddenly opened in the dim, black-red sky, and its bright, golden pupils were quietly watching Caroline.

"I know..." Caroline replied softly, "I guessed it."

"Good boy." Norma's voice was soft and hoarse, "I'm very angry."

"Everything... is for you, for... the Platinum Tower..."

Caroline closed her eyes, she felt her body being twisted and tightened, her lips were roughly opened, ravaged, and swallowed.Her whole body, her whole soul seemed to be bitten, torn, and swallowed.

When she woke up again, Caroline stood up. She felt dizzy and could hardly control her figure. She wobbled and sat back down.In the next moment, Casey's figure had appeared beside her.

"I feel a filthy smell..." Casey glanced around, and finally settled on Caroline.She stared at Caroline quietly for a while, and suddenly let out a sneer, "It seems that Bella's blood really doesn't know how to control at all." After speaking, she threw something at Caroline.

Caroline fished it subconsciously, it was a silver ring.

"Put it on, that little thing won't be able to find you in the dream." After Kathy finished speaking, she watched Caroline rubbing the ring but not putting it on for a long time. She waved her hand, "Whatever You, if you are willing to feed that little thing with all your essence and blood, that is also your business, but Bella has to be replaced by someone else."

Caroline pursed her lips, she raised her head, and Kathy was no longer in front of her.

"Mentor..." Caroline groaned, and then silently put the ring on her finger.

Lida was still cruising outside, her face was a little tired, just after the night's vigil ended, she couldn't help but yawned.People around laughed and greeted Lida, and Lida nodded to them, with a little worry in her eyes.She thought of Norma, and couldn't help sighing again. She didn't know whether it would be a blessing or a curse for the New Moon Mercenary Group to provoke such a character.

After walking half a circle around the camp, Lida looked up and saw a pure white figure standing beside the tree.Lida was so frightened that she drew out her long sword. When the other party raised her eyes, Lida met her golden eyes.

"...Wake up, wake up so early...Ahaha..." Lida laughed a few times, and reluctantly inserted the sword back.

Norma hummed, then turned her head and looked into the distance: "I'm full... so I can't sleep..."

What to eat at night, can still feed myself... Lida said in her heart, looked at Norma's expression, and smiled dryly: "I think you look good... um... that..."

"If you have nothing to say, you don't have to force yourself to find something to say, it's not necessary." Norma said in a low voice.

Lida: "..." She rubbed her hair irritably, walked up to Norma, and let out a long breath: "You don't seem to be in a good mood...Is it because of your little girlfriend?"

Norma glanced at her: "She's not my little girlfriend."

"You are very close."

"Fake, to deceive you." Norma said.

"but you……"

"It's all fake, to deceive you."

Lida: "..." Can we continue with this? ?Lida forced herself to smile a little: "You are a mage, I am a warrior, and you are weak in close combat. If you don't want to be beaten by me, just listen to me obediently, okay?"

Norma's lips moved, she looked at Lida several times, and finally closed her mouth.

Lida put her waist in, and sighed: "I heard what Javier said, although we don't know what your relationship is, and we don't know what your purpose is. But... in this situation, as long as you are human , you are our compatriots. We are a mercenary group, and of course we have done a lot of things, murder and arson, and slave trade... Everyone came here like this, and so do we. But we are the front line of the Holy Empire and the entire human world On the front line against alien races. So, for the time being, you are welcome, my countrymen."

After saying this, Lida stretched out her hand to Norma, her face revealed the brightness of being a mercenary.

Norma stared at her hand, and then looked at the other's face. She pursed her lips and her body was stiff. After a long time, she stretched out her hand slightly, and her fingers touched Lida's hand lightly.Just when Lida was about to smile and say a few words, Norma had already disappeared in front of her.

Lida quietly looked at the empty front, and after a while, she scratched her hair: "Ah!! It's really not flattering at all."

The sound was captured by the wind spirit and sent to Norma's ears.Norma opened her hands and looked at her own, and suddenly laughed: "Human beings."

In the afternoon, Housman called Lida. Lida came to the tent and saw Norma sitting there, while Javier and others were sitting at the bottom.Their injuries have not healed, and their faces look very pale. Apart from these few people, there are also a few priests and the only spell operator in their regiment.

"We already have complete evidence images showing that the orcs are indeed connected with the elves." Housman looked at several priests with a very kind attitude.

The pastors whispered to each other for a long time, but they never gave an answer.Housman frowned, Norma raised his eyes, and said in a flat voice: "The orcs and elves are together, and the demigods of the orcs are stationed there. If the two sides form an alliance, the orcs who do not have a main god should pay their sincerity first. .So what would a demigod orc do?"

"The forest of monsters can't be kept, and the towns that follow can't be kept, and the industrial chain of the lord, these monsters and elf slaves, will disappear with it."

These words are too straightforward.

The priests stood up suddenly, glaring at Norma.Norma ignored their anger, she glanced at Housman, and Housman's back straightened, even though he didn't know why he did it.Then Housman looked at Lida weakly.

Norma sighed silently.

Lida gritted her teeth, and smiled at several priests: "We are all mercenaries, and our words are not sensible. But the facts are already in front of us, so..."

Several priests glanced at each other, and finally the leader stood up. He sighed: "Actually, we are not unwilling to convey your demands. But the orcs are silent now, and all conflicts still revolve around the ownership of slaves. Everyone I also know that Continental law expressly prohibits the use and sale of slaves..."

Having said that, Norma's eyes flickered, but she still didn't say anything.

And the voices of the pastors are still ringing: "So no matter how you look at it, even if you know about it, it is unlikely that the empire will take the initiative to take measures. In addition, the construction of the Sea of ​​Elements pipeline that has been making a lot of noise recently , It is said that the empire attaches great importance to it, and all the manpower and material resources are preparing to receive the envoys there."

When Norma heard this, the corners of her lips curled up mockingly, and she waved her hand: "No matter what, reporting is a must."

Several pastors looked at each other and nodded: "Of course."

Since there was no need to be responsible, and no other commitments were required, the pastors immediately agreed, with a sense of impatience.This is normal. Everyone knows that the current World of Warcraft forest is full of dangers. If the demigod attacks, everyone in the World of Warcraft forest will be finished.So leaving with righteousness at this time is simply the best thing.

Everyone watched the priests leave in silence.After several people had left and could not see their figures, Housman threw away the wooden wine glass and shouted loudly: "Bastards! A group of bullying and fearful guys who are afraid of death! May they never enter the Kingdom of God after death!"

"That's what happened after they died." Norma said leisurely. She sat by the table and slid her hand across the table. After a while, she asked, "The slave mine before you was later Does the one occupied by the orcs produce a lot of magic spar?"

Housman and Lida looked at each other without speaking.In the conversation just now, they didn't mention the magic spar mine at all, which only shows that they don't want anyone to know about it.Norma didn't mention it just now. Housman was relieved at first, but now he is not so sure.

Norma laughed: "I have no interest in magic spar, I come from the Platinum Tower, and I will not covet your magic spar."

"It's just the Tower of Platinum. Look at that proud look, what a big deal. Isn't it also betrayed by the Tower of Platinum?" Nok said in a low voice.

Norma turned her head abruptly, she looked at Noke, and paused every word: "No betrayal." She closed her eyes, her voice was calm, but her heart was slowly sinking, "Caroline Martin, she did not betray the Platinum Tower. What she betrayed was... what she betrayed was only..."

Caroline Martin, betrayed only her mentor, nothing more.

Sadly, Norma Hill, when faced with the rules of the Platinum Tower, she could only choose to obey.
