Chapter 215: Harry
Roland asked tentatively, "...... So who are you? Why is it here? ”
The undead listened to Roland's words, but suddenly as if they had been stimulated by something, they rushed in front of Roland at once, and their faces were only a fist away from Roland, which startled Roland.
The undead stared at Roland's face for a long time before he spoke, "Who am I?" You don't even know who I am? Did that bastard Laurie wipe out everything about me? Yes! Oh, did he think he was worthy of his conscience by doing so! Roland seemed to see the undead as he remembered them again.
"So you're ...... Harry? Roland asked tentatively.
The undead's mood returned to normal a little, and his expression became sentimental again: "You know my name? Hehe, there are still people who remember me......"
Through Harry's fluctuating emotions and performance, Roland only felt that he was unusual. Could it be that the character of the undead is so sensitive? It seems that the slightest stir can make their emotions go up and down.
Roland opened his mouth and said, "No matter what, you are also the founding hero of the Moon Country. Your deeds are recorded in the history books. ”
After listening to Roland's words, Harry was taken aback. Then he suddenly floated up to Roland, and suddenly asked viciously, "How did the book record the cause of my death?" ”
Seeing Harry's eager expression, Roland told the truth: "Strictly speaking, the book doesn't say how you died, it just says that your whereabouts are unknown after a drinking party after the founding of the country......"
"Missing? Hehe...... What a whereabouts unknown! Hey, boy, how do you think I died? ”
Roland glanced at him and said, "As far as I can see now, you are floating in front of me like this, thinking with your toes, and I know that you must be dead, right?" ”
"Heh, you kid have a good look......" Harry grinned, "I was poisoned, and here I am." ”
Then, regardless of whether Roland liked it or not, Harry began to recall as if to himself: "That day...... I can't remember exactly why, but there was a banquet going on in the palace, so I attended it...... I just remember that when Laurie invited me to come for a drink...... As a result, I was poisoned alive...... To this day, I still remember the tragic situation when I was dying, bleeding from the seven orifices, hehe......"
"And he...... Why did I kill you? Roland asked cautiously.
Harry glanced back at Roland, "Good question! But I still haven't figured it out...... Back then, we grew up together better than our own brothers...... For him to expand the territory, I have been fighting in the south and north all the year round, and I have made great achievements. Who would have thought that when he began to wield power, he would be so merciless to wipe me out...... I still don't understand why the 'good brother' and 'good friend' who was still laughing at you and admiring you a moment ago turned around and stabbed you......"
As he spoke, Harry flicked his cuffs, and a small luminous object slipped from the top of the iron prison to the ground. Roland looked at it: Isn't this the sapphire key that Rand left here at that time?
Harry's tone began to grit his teeth again: "When he found a two-color gem, he ordered someone to make two identical keys from it, and gave me one of them, saying that the two of us will always be good brothers...... I only blame myself for not knowing people clearly, and it turns out that all emotions will become unrecognizable with the passage of time...... So I don't want to be wiped out. My hatred and resentment have turned into powerful weapons, and it has preserved my soul. Hehe, but who would have thought that after the day of the accident, this place would be blocked, and even my corpse, he didn't want to bury it on the old days...... Do you know what it's like to watch your body rot little by little and be bitten by a mouse? I know. But I couldn't do anything about it. I couldn't touch my body, I could only watch it turn to bones little by little. I wanted to leave, but I couldn't! Because my soul has been imprisoned here......"
Roland looked at Harry and didn't speak, but a trace of sadness rose in his heart: how similar the two of them were to Roland and Rand now! Unexpectedly, the tragedy of history is about to repeat itself.
Harry continued, "...... Later, it gradually became a private prison for the royal family, and I saw so many people, including the royal family's best friends, disappear silently over the centuries...... Over the years, I have also seen through it, as long as people reach the peak of power, they will definitely change, and become a monster who forgets his original intention and eats people without spitting out bones! ”
Seeing that Roland still didn't have any obvious reaction, Harry leaned in front of Roland and said, "To be honest, you are really willing to die honestly tomorrow?" ”
Hearing this, Roland's heart suddenly exploded like a thunderbolt, as if he had been aroused by something, and he could no longer regain his calm! Even the expression on his face became complicated!
Harry continued, "Hehe, I heard all of your conversations word for word...... Think about it, how have you treated him over the years, and how much suffering you have suffered for him? How many times did you almost die? But what did he do to you? Is it fair for you to sell your soul to the devil and impose this stigma on you? I can see that you have a grudge in your heart, and you don't want to die yet, do you? If you go to the guillotine like this tomorrow, and you have a grudge in your heart, I am afraid you will come to be my companion. You know, it's not a good time to be a ghost. Like me, my wish can never be fulfilled, which means that I will never be reborn......"
Listening to Harry's words, Roland didn't make a sound, but he thought a lot in his heart. Admittedly, Roland's thoughts began to waver because of Harry's words.
But the most important reason is that Roland really doesn't want to die yet!
Roland had obviously imagined countless times before, what it would be like when he left the Moon Country and regained his freedom! But the despair of reality is like a dull stick, and without warning, Roland was thrown into hell at once! How can he be reconciled!
And Rand, to be honest, Roland can't tell what kind of mood he felt when he mentioned him. To say that Roland does not resent Rand at all is simply impossible!
Although Roland looked calm on his face now, it was just his personality. Roland has never shown his emotions too much, and during his time in captivity, he has actually been quite anxious in his heart.
These days, Roland occasionally recalls the heartwarming scenes when he and Rand stayed together and played. But what caught Roland's mind the most was the aggressive scene when Rand stood in front of Roland and personally pronounced his death sentence!
The cold eyes, the cold tone, and the scolding and insulting of Roland by everyone...... Like a rat crossing the street, Roland has become the object of abuse and oppression by everyone...... Perhaps it won't be long before Roland's name appears in the history books...... Such a stigma, Roland doesn't want to be burdened!
That was his only remaining pride!
And over the years, Roland has followed Rand, although there are some small twists and turns, but Roland thinks that he is generally worthy of Rand. For the sake of Rand, how much Roland suffered and how many people he was excluded from, only he knows.
But what about Rand? But he put all the stigma and sin on Roland!
If time could be turned back, how Roland hoped that both of them could live well...... But the reality is that there are no ifs.
Between Rand and himself, Roland will definitely choose himself, because he also wants to live!
Roland wasn't a saint, never was.
His yearning and thirst for freedom in the past 19 years has accumulated to a critical point, and it is about to explode! If Roland still had some nostalgia for this country before, then that nostalgia was now cut off by Rand himself in this incident!
Yes, Twin Moon City has become a place of nightmares for Roland, leaving only nightmares......
Roland thought like this, and his will involuntarily became firm: it was time to make a decision.
Roland stood up and lightly touched the cage's walls. As a result, as soon as he touched the edge of the cage, his fingers felt a tingling sensation like an electric shock, which was very tingling.
Unexpectedly, the power of this enchantment is even greater than Roland imagined, and it seems that the king has really taken great pains to trap him!
Thinking of this, the corners of Roland's mouth couldn't help but show a mocking smile: It seems that if you want to escape, you have to work harder.
In my ears, there was a faint sound from the bell tower, knock, knock.
Roland knew it was dawn now.
In four hours, Roland's "beloved" old friend, Rand, the great king of the Land of the Moon, was to see him guillotined.
As soon as he thought of this, Roland felt that his will began to become firm. Perhaps it is only at the moment of life and death that people's will to survive will really begin to become concrete and vivid.
