Led by Laurenna, the crowd went to the prison again.

The prison was as dark as ever, with candles flickering in the dimly lit premises, and the wails of the whipping could be heard from time to time.

Seeing the princess arrive, the guards all knelt down in fear.

Perhaps the smell of corruption in the prison was so bad that Lorena pinched her nose and hummed softly in response to the guards' salute.

Seeing that the princess was so unbearable that she didn't go in, and that he didn't want too many people to disturb the old lizard, Mark decided to "go to the meeting alone".

After leaving everyone for a while, he entered the bottom of the prison under the guidance of the jailer.

There are not many prisoners at the bottom level, and all of them are repeat offenders.

Most of these people were tortured to death, and when they saw the living entering, they all retreated into the corner.

"Hee-hee~"

A filthy prisoner took advantage of the crowd and grinned with his withered palm to grab the corner of Mark's coat.

His teeth are yellow and broken, his face is droopy and wrinkled, and his hair is slightly bald and thatched.

While laughing, he shouted, "Come in, come in." ”

The jailer raised his iron rod.

"I'm dead, I'm dead!"

Before the iron rod could fall, the prisoner seemed to have been struck by the iron rod, clasped his hands to his chest, and rolled on the ground with wailing.

After the two of them walked by, they got up again, clapped their hands and laughed:

"It's coming, it's coming......"

The cell door opened, and the jailer waited for Mark to enter, then closed the door and retreated.

"Coming?"

Seeing Mark's visit, the old lizard was not surprised.

Death is only a matter of time and time for him.

Maybe after experiencing too much suffering and torture in life, everything can be seen openly, and it is naturally unremarkable.

Mark stared at him.

I saw that the old lizard had one eye closed, described as withered, and even older, and I couldn't help but feel a lot of taste in my heart.

Still pretending to be unfazed on the surface, Mu Ran replied, "I'm here." ”

"Sit down!"

The old lizard raised his eyebrows, swept his eyes, and motioned to sit down.

In this way, he does not have to look up, and he can save his physical strength.

Mark sat cross-legged in the rotten grass, looking at the old lizard.

After a long time, I found that the old lizard was still closed with one eye closed and silent.

The scene was awkward and dreary, except for the sudden sound of bellows-like breathing.

"Can you help me see this ......?" he fumbled with himself and pulled out the hidden pendant.

Before he finished speaking, his hand was halfway outstretched.

"Ahh ～”

Aiming at the object in his hand, the old lizard jumped up like an electric shock and snatched the pendant with his hand.

The environment was dim, making it difficult for one eye to see, and the old lizard took the pendant in his hand and rubbed it repeatedly.

Sometimes happy and worried, his expression is complicated, as if he is soothing his beloved woman, and he seems to hate the enemy of the present world, muttering in his mouth:

"It's it! Yes, that's it......"

"Tell me! Where did you get this? Tell me quickly!! ”

The old lizard was so excited that it lunged at Mark like crazy, forgetting about the chains on his body.

The chains struggled and "shook and rang".

Sharp claws grabbed the collar of the comer, and his one-eyed sparkle as he questioned hysterically:

"Tell me! Tell me! Where did the stuff come from? ”

The withered arm shook Mark's torso as if to strangle his neck.

Taken aback by this abnormal look, I don't know how stimulated the old lizard was, and it was so violent.

It also shows from the side that he does know the truth about this thing.

In order to appease his agitation, he had to pull away the bone-like palm and said calmly:

"Old man, please let go first......"

The old lizard did not give up, and his gloomy one-eyed glowed, trying in vain to see through Mark's heart, and gritted his teeth and asked:

"Who is the person who gave you something? Where did he go? Say ...... Say."

Perhaps the six-pointed star pendant was so important to him that he was so excited.

"Old man! For the sake of your body, you need to be calm. Since you are here, you will naturally be told the ins and outs, so why rush? ”

"We're still the old rules, I'll tell you mine, you tell me yours. How is it? ”

"Yes!" After regaining his composure, the old lizard stared into Mark's eyes to discern if he was lying.

I knew in my heart that if I was as excited as the old lizard, the conversation might not continue, and only by being calm could I control the scene.

So he said slowly: "The thing is entrusted by a lizardman on his deathbed. He died after being beheaded in the gladiatorial arena, and when he died, he was speechless. By the way, he, like you, will also be 'invisible'......"

"What does that man look like? How old are you? The old lizard hurriedly asked.

"Thin body with a red dot on the forehead......"

"Ahh ～”

The old lizard fell to the ground as if it were him, not the red head, who had been beheaded in half.

Knowing that there must be some kind of connection between the two, but seeing that he was in such pain, Mark couldn't ask the reason again.

The old lizard was in great pain, beating his feet and chest, and there were many muddy tears in his dry old eyes.

"Oh my God! Why is it so unfair? Let my bloodline be extinct, how can I face the ...... of the ancestors"

After a while, as if remembering something, he gritted his teeth and asked, "What does the executioner look like?" How did it end? ”

"Dead."

In order to soothe the sad old man, Mark said coldly.

"How did you die? Say ...... Say."

"The butcher fought me to the death, and I pierced me with a sword in the back of the neck, and bled to death. Before he died, he fell to his knees and was in pain......"

"Good! Good! Good! ～”

When the old lizard heard this, his voice choked, as if he had executed the fat with his own hands, and said three times in succession.

"Death deserves it, and sin deserves it."

After closing his eyes for a long time, he sighed: "That's it! That's how it should be! ”

After speaking, his face was full of sadness.

Thinking that the old lizard was at that, Mark wanted to pull back.

"Stop! Don't you want to hear my story? ”

After the old lizard shouted, Mark froze his body and suddenly turned around.

"Alas! The family is unfortunate~"

After a long sigh, he slowly explained the reason:

The people of the old lizard were originally of the same clan as the people of Kansas.

Although the population is small and the power is not large, it also retains a place by relying on invisible talents.

When the lizard king Olaf revolted, he promised that if he allied with him, he could divide the land and eliminate the inequality between the races.

To this end, the old lizards mobilized their entire army to resist human oppression.

At that time, the humans still had troops and fought the lizard tribe in the long river valley.

Either Caesar or nothing! In order to survive, both sides did everything in their might.

Olaf narrowly won.

After this battle, the elites of the old lizard clan were all lost, suffered heavy losses, and their vitality was greatly damaged.

Upon returning to the tribe, the old lizard's entire clan hoped that Olaf would make good on his promise.

In order to resist the fire and robbery of the mechanical legions, Olaf not only did not fulfill it, but continued to recruit troops, which made the originally small number of people even more withered.

Looking at the old, weak, sick and disabled people, the ancestors of the old lizard were no longer able to argue with Olaf.

In order to preserve his bloodline, he had to move to the mountains to hide, and since then he has cut off contact with Kansas.
