Platinum Throne

Norma closed her eyes, and opened them again after a while: "Is there any more of your elf slaves?"

A little embarrassment appeared on the faces of Lida and Housman.

The matter of slaves is normal and normal. Although the major mercenaries and countries still ignore the Continental Act to sell and arrest slaves, this is still something that should not be advertised.But when it comes to doing bad things, everyone is sneaky, why do you have to speak out so frankly?

Housman coughed lowly: "There are a few, but they...uh...may not be in a good state of mind."

Norma recalled the elf she had seen before, she had a look of surprise in her eyes, and then became indifferent and indifferent: "It doesn't matter, I have a solution."

Housman had no choice but to wink at others.When his subordinates were working, Hausman still couldn't help nagging in a low voice: "The matter of slaves... Actually, they also captured our people. As you can see, we humans are also tortured terribly by those orcs ..."

"That's your business." Norma replied, obviously she didn't care about it.

Lida couldn't help looking at Norma, and then at Housman. Housman gritted his teeth, but didn't know what to say for a while.After a while, Norma seemed to have finally regained her senses. She paid attention to the people around her again and asked, "Are you angry? Why?"

"Me!!" Housman turned his head, he waved his hand, "I don't know, I'm not a good person, but I'm still a little angry seeing your attitude like this."

"You know what slaves are like...whether you are guilty or angry, don't you go to catch and sell them as usual? Why are you angry?" Norma thought for a while, she narrowed her eyes, "What do you expect? What change do you want me to bring about? Your attitude like this is just hypocrisy."

Housman opened his mouth, and finally fell silent.Lida shook her head, then looked at Norma: "We are hypocritical. You are right. We know what kind of life those slaves will have, but they are not our compatriots, so we can turn a blind eye. But... "

Lida finally shook her head and said nothing.It's just that, the atmosphere in the tent was gloomy, and no one knew what to say.Maybe it's because I've seen too many passionate youths, and I've seen too many eyes that were originally kind and turned into indifference and sinking.When you meet someone like Norma, who is naturally indifferent, you always expect the other party to show a little "humanity".Then, whether it is mocking the other party's innocence and kindness, or mocking the other party's arrogance in the ivory tower, it will make people feel complacent about being in a high place.

It's a pity that Norma doesn't care about anything and doesn't care about anything.On the contrary, it seems that they are even more despicable and hypocritical.

In the silence, it didn't take long for an elf with chains to stumble and be pushed into the tent.This is a male youth, although his body is dirty, but his figure is tall and straight, and when he raises his head, even Lida, who is already used to it, can't help shaking his head.She then subconsciously looked at Norma. Norma raised her eyes, and the monocle clipped on the bridge of her nose flashed a little light with this movement. Although the whole face was exquisite and beautiful, it was as indifferent as a block of ice.

Sure enough, he is a person who likes women, and he doesn't care about this kind of beauty at all.Lida couldn't help thinking in her heart.

And the next moment, Norma had already spoken fluent elf language.

The male elf was obviously very surprised. He looked at Norma, his long ears trembling slightly for a moment, and then he closed his mouth.

"The orcs and demigods come to your forest, dig your land, and split your trees. You indulge them, and even go against your own nature." Norma said, looking at the appearance of the male elf, she tapped her finger lightly Get some seats.She carefully observed the silent face of the male elf in front of her, then nodded, "It seems that you all know about it."

This is an affirmative sentence.

The male elf didn't answer.

Norma continued: "There are only a few things that can make elves go against their nature...the will of your gods?" The back of the male elf straightened immediately, and Norma blinked, then sighed , "So that's the case, has he come to God's Realm?"

The male elf was trembling all over and shouted, "What nonsense! You evil... what spell did you cast on me?" He began to struggle, but was quickly pinned to the ground by the other humans.

Norma lost interest, she waved her hand, and asked someone to drag the male elf away again, then she pondered and looked at the people beside her: "The god of coordination has come to the gods, maybe soon , there will be a battle of gods around here."

"It's impossible! How did you know that!" Housman couldn't help shouting out. He could see clearly that the male elf didn't say a word during the whole process.And Norma came to a conclusion with only a few sentences.And Housman didn't think that the male elves they captured from the periphery would know such sensitive things.

Norma sighed, and she once again showed the discrimination and pity of the academic gods to the scumbags to Housman, Lida and others.

She pursed her lips, not wanting to explain, but under the reluctance of Housman and others, she finally said a few more words unwillingly: "We all know..." When she said this word, she glanced sideways. A few people took a look, "Elves are bred from the tree of elves. So they are born with the affinity of wood elements... Of course, they also have certain plant attributes. One of the important points, but also often overlooked by people is... Do you know the banyan tree? Their aerial roots hang down into the soil below, and they will regrow and sprout into new small trees. It looks like they are different trees, but they are actually one tree. Elves have the same attributes."

Lida and Housman were silent for a long time.

"That is to say, all elves are one elf?" Lida asked, frowning.

Norma sighed again: "Yes, and no. They can achieve information sharing to a certain extent. They are individuals as well as a whole, which is why they reject tieflings." Because every mixed race is destroying this A sense of oneness represents the emergence of "independence" in one of the individuals.

Lida and Housman looked at each other: "We... never knew..."

Norma didn't care about the feelings of the two, and asked: "Then, it's your turn to make a choice. If you want to take back the Magic Crystal Mine, it's actually not difficult, but it involves gods... Are you planning to treat the gods?" Is the Empire hiding this?"

Lida and Housman were completely silent this time.They had already seen Norma's mind-reading ability to that male elf, but when it was their turn, they chose to remain silent tacitly.

Seeing the appearance of the two, Norma smiled suddenly: "Actually, what you think is important is not that important." She saw that the two didn't care, so she stretched out her finger, "A new one that has come A god, a demigod, what do they want most? Is it a magic spar? Or some other wealth? No, none of this matters."

Both Lida and Housman showed confused eyes. They are mercenaries, have seen the lord, and seen the high priest, but they are still confused and at a loss when it comes to things on the level of God War.Even when hearing demigods or gods coming, they feel that they are too far away from themselves, unable to have any real feelings.

Norma looked at them, then looked away again, she looked at the distant sky, and suddenly asked: "Do you know the pipeline construction of the Elemental Sea?"

"I know! The lord doesn't listen to us just because of such a crap!" Hausman finally heard something he could understand, "May God bless you, let that damn thing be destroyed like this!"

Norma turned her head to look at Housman: "Why? Establish the Elemental Sea Pipeline. From now on, the spell operators on the main continent will not be controlled by the gods. Everyone can use spells indefinitely. Everywhere, there is It may become a city that never sleeps like the Platinum Tower. There will be clean water, lights, food..."

"As long as the lord is kind enough, we can also have clean water, light and food." Lida laughed. "It's never technology that affects these things."

"As for the Spellcasters, what do those guys have to do with us? Are our lives better with them? Are our lives more miserable without them?"

Housman also smiled.They looked at Norma as if they were an ignorant, fantasy-filled child.

Norma finally realized that what she thought everyone needed, maybe many people didn't care.What she thinks may be very important may not be worth mentioning in the eyes of others...

Norma was silent for a moment, then said, "I see, then let's get a little more practical. What exactly are your expectations?"

Housman also fell silent.After a while, he and Lida looked at each other and took a deep breath: "Perhaps you will laugh at us. But this is the Holy Empire. Although we are mercenaries, we are also citizens of the Holy Empire. Although we are greedy , profit-seeking, but don’t care about throwing your life away for the Holy Empire. We hope that the lord will take our opinion seriously. If the enemy is really that unknown demigod or god... then I hope they will never appear in the Holy Empire. empire."

"I understand." Norma nodded, she stretched out her hand, a black hole appeared out of nowhere in the air, a piece of paper exuding brilliance appeared, and a quill pen jumped at the same time.Norma picked up the pen and paper, scanned the text on it, and then wiped it lightly, and the content on it became the common language familiar to Housman and Lida.

"Then, please sign the contract, and I will fulfill your wishes." Norma said, when she raised her head, a scarlet light flashed in her golden eyes.
