Thanks to Huan Yehui for his reward.

Lance really did not break his promise this time. After agreeing to Thea, he immediately arranged this meeting.

However, walking in the dark and humid underground prison makes people feel a sense of coldness that penetrates into the spinal cord. Because the prison in the Kingdom is located underground, it lacks sunlight in the sky and is drowsy.

The guards in charge of the cell held the lights in front of them, and the shaking flames concealed the surrounding scenery: most of the places here are very wet, and there are often ticking sounds of dripping water. A pool has been accumulated somewhere, and an unbearable odor is coming in the air without any concealment. Looking around, the prisoners imprisoned in the cell are ragged and slow in their eyes. They shrank into the darkness in fear of the light, like ghosts hiding here, carefully peeking at Lance and the others who visited here.

During this trip, even Fiona, who had been staying with Lance, gave up. Only Parker and others were following Lance. Thea, who insisted on coming, frowned tightly throughout the whole process, pressed her hand on her chest, and looked around in panic, and all her inner thoughts were written on her face.

Halfway through the journey, she finally couldn't bear it and used a bit of blame: "How can you lock him up here?"

When she thought that her brother Royd was locked in such a place for two days, her face turned pale. She just stepped on a dead mouse, and the guard guarding the dungeon had no reaction at all. She also said that this situation is very common here?

This is indeed quite common. Even the cruel side here is not seen by the girl. Today, the princess is visiting the cell. The blood has been cleaned up, and the reason why the prisoners who were detained are quieter is that they have already taken a whip in advance.

Lance shrugged and smiled unabated: "Princess Sia, do you think I should worship Brother Ling and let him live in the palace with rich clothes and food, should I find some more people to serve?"

Of course, Thea knew that Lance was talking about the slander. At this time, the hot spearhead of the Revolutionary Army was pointing the direction unanimously. The duke was dead, so there was nothing to say, but there was another king who had stepped down and didn't deal with it. Even Thea couldn't say it. Everyone just left the past and left the past - this is also the reason why she became more and more anxious.

He must rescue his brother as soon as possible. This is the most direct idea in Xiya's heart.

Unfortunately, what Shia felt was still involuntarily. Even the opportunity to meet was given to her by the man standing in front of her. Shia often thought about a question alone, that is, whether she should trust Lance, but the answer to this question is actually quite unsolvable.

The reason is very simple -

Because it is not necessary.

As for the experience of Thea, she once wanted to assassinate the Duke, and even made plans to abandon her life. For such a desperate, the princess is just a nice title, but no matter how nice the title sounds, no one is willing to help her such a down-and-out princess fight against the Duke. So when Lance pointed out such a way out for her, she agreed without much hesitation. Logically speaking, she is not as stupid as Yiwen. How could she be wary of Lance at all, but for a woman who is willing to give her own body and is not afraid of death. What if the other party has any plans?

She tried this with such a mentality, but she didn't expect it to be successful.

Now I doubt Lance's motives. In fact, there is no point in it, so she simply stopped thinking about it. However, for her brother, Xiya tried her best to save the other party. She secretly thought in her heart that Xiya was better than most people imagined. During this revolutionary period, she was not a vase that did nothing, and even developed a force that only obeyed her orders based on her original control...

Just as her mind was diverging, Lance, who was walking in front of her, stopped.

This sudden action made Xiya hit the other party's back without any defense. She was slightly stunned, but she heard Lance say clearly: "It's here."

Thea quickly turned her head, and there was a row of prison doors, but each looked a bit of gloomy horror.

Thea's heart gradually tugged, but Lance raised her chin and pointed her in direction with certainty.

"Open the prison door," Thea asked.

"It's better not to do it." Lance directly rejected Siya's request, which instead aroused the former's suspicion. Siya frowned her slender eyebrows: "Why?"

"because……"

“…Is it the Aya outside?”

Before Lance could speak, a weak but familiar voice came from the depths of darkness that could not be exposed to the light in the prison door. Xiya was surprised: "Brother!"

"You are finally here, I've been waiting for you..." said the voice.

"Brother..." The girl finally showed her weakness that suited her age and choked for a moment, but she turned her head with an extremely firm expression and ordered to the guard guarding the dungeon: "Open this door for me immediately!"

The guard was a little panicked, but he still turned his eyes to Lance, which made Xiya feel the reality. But Xiya didn't intend to surrender to this man this time, and she turned her eyes stubbornly to him.

"Believe me, I just don't want you to bear unnecessary harm." Lance reached out and held Siya's cheeks like a close lover, but the coldness reflected in his silver eyes had nothing to do with love.

Thea did not wave Lance's hand away, but her eyes remained firm: "What if I persist?"

"I won't stop you, but it will definitely happen that makes both of us feel sad!" Lance said.

"Open the door!" This time Thea shouted almost hysterically.

So Lance shrugged and stopped stopping.

The guards in the dungeon took out the key to the prison door under the instructions of Lance, and then opened the heavy iron door. Thea snatched the lantern in the other party's hand and walked towards the black prison. In fact, the depth of the prison door was not long, and the light in the hands of the prison continued to melt the dark corners in the prison. Thea finally saw the whole picture of the cell clearly.

Pick.

The lantern fell to the ground and shattered. Before the faint fire could be burned, it was extinguished by the accumulated water in the cell.

Lance shook out a scroll of floating light from his arms as if he was ready, and then lit up the aisle again.

"Sia, where are you? Sorry, I can't see you." The voice in the prison said calmly.

But compared to him, Siya's voice completely fluctuated. Lance used the floating light technique to see her holding her arms and trembling shoulders, and she curled up in the darkness and shivered: "Why... why... is this... no. no..."

The light source floating in the air slowly moved. Finally, the floating light technique once again illuminated the entire prison, corresponding to the princess with her back facing everyone. Obviously, the man locked in heavy shackles and covered in blood and muddy was easier to catch people's eyes.

Handsome? Down and out?

No, no, no, it has nothing to do with this adjective. Royd Cromay, who is imprisoned in the cell at this moment, can no longer be described as humans. It is not that he transcended the race and became another creature, but because of his current image. It is completely incompatible with humans.

Under the dim halo, only two empty and terrifying blood holes were left in his eyes, and his body was covered with blood holes. He was penetrated by countless iron chains and shackles and locked onto the wall. But it was not just these. His limbs were broken and twisted in a direction that normal humans could never reach. Now the king is a stubborn person who is about to die. No, perhaps even worse than the slaughter. At least they will not be imprisoned here, and they are constantly suffering from torture day after day than death.

Thea burst out imperatively in an instant. She rushed over and grabbed Lance's clothes, shouting hysterically: "Why, why do you do this?"

"Calm down." Lance stared at her coldly.

"How do you tell me to calm down, why, why are you so cruel!"

"It's not what I did," Lance said.

"At this time, you still want to argue!" Thea stared at Lance with gritted teeth, but a voice recalled her sanity that was about to be crazy.

"It's not what he did, but the attacks of those who want to use me to gravitate towards my new master." Royd was still laughing, as if what he was talking about now was someone else's business.

However, this is indeed unreproachable. Although Lance took over the Duke's old subordinate with the help of Kuka, it does not mean that everything is covered. There will always be smart people in this world, let alone those self-righteous stupid people.

Although Lance planned everything and cooperated with the revolutionary army to invade Lanli City, the army broke into the royal city because of its too realistic acting skills, which made those subordinates really think that they were going to defeat the king. As a result, when Lance saw Royd from the ruins, he was already in such a state of being neither human nor ghost. Perhaps he had just been tortured at that time, and maybe even asked the people next to him n times. Is this really the king?

"Why did this happen? Haven't you promised me that I would help me rescue my brother?"

Lance looked at the face that pear blossoms were questioning him loudly, and couldn't help but sigh: "So I said it would be better not to open the prison. Sure enough, something that made both of us feel sad."

Lance put his forehead and expressed his foresight again, but such foresight was deeply hurt by the Aya.

"You..." But she found that she couldn't even say a word.

"Sia, where are you?" the gentle and calm voice asked again.

Xiya finally reacted. She wiped her tears and ran quickly towards the figure in the prison. She knelt beside him regardless of the dirty water: "Brother, don't worry, I will rescue you immediately. I will find you the best doctor. It will definitely be fine, it's fine."

She said this, rather than comforting Royd, she was comforting herself.

Thea kept stroking Royd's shocking wounds, tears kept surging. She turned her head angrily and shouted at Lance: "Hurry up and open these locks, I want to take him out from here!"

But Lance looked at her indifferently, and the people around him were so cold and quiet.

Although Lance did not say anything explicitly rejected, his actions were already very obvious.

"You clearly agreed to me." Thea frowned and choked.

But this time, the person who comforted her was not Lance, but her brother: "Don't worry, I'm fine. This is the sin I committed, so I should bear it, and you, now have something more important to do..."

"What's more important?" Xiya looked at the brother who was extremely gentle and handsome in her impression with tears, but now she was only the terrible and terrifying look that was not enough to describe. The bitterness in her heart could not be expressed in words, but she still suppressed her heart that would collapse at any time and listened to his words.

"You will support this kingdom on my behalf and make up for the sins I have committed in the past."

"But those are not my brother's fault, that is the Duke's conspiracy..."

"No," a hint of loneliness appeared in Royd's smile: "That was my fault. The Duke just used the darkness in my heart. After all, if I hadn't believed in his bewitching, I would not have ended today. Therefore, today's fate is that I deserve it..."

For a moment, Thea didn't know what to say. Although she still wanted to defend Royd, even Royd herself admitted it. Thinking back to the murder he committed in the bloody coup, it was indeed an unforgettable crime.

Thea clenched her lips, feeling unwilling, but Royd said, "Fortunately, I have a capable sister who saved all this for me."

"Brother Royd..."

"So don't be confused, don't stop, be a supported and competent queen." Royd said this, but it made Thea feel even more uncomfortable.

At this time, Royd suddenly lowered his voice and put out a few words in a quiet manner: "Don't believe that demon, escape quickly, escape quickly!"

Thea was stunned, but when she looked up to try her best to figure out what her brother said, Royd smiled and sent his blessings, as if the warning had never happened: "Okay, don't be immersed in sadness, you still have something to do, go ahead and don't disappoint those who expect you."

To put it this way, it is undoubtedly announcing the end of this meeting.

"elder brother?"

"Sia, go, I want to stay alone and be quiet." Royd said.

“…”

The girl stood up after a long silence, and that kind of unyielding dazzling light was reflected in her eyes. "Brother, Xiya will definitely come to save you." She swore.

Unfortunately, this scene will never be seen.

"Take good care of yourself." This is the last sentence Royd said to his sister.
