Alien world

Chapter 208 61. Don't Give Up Hope
An old orc entered the room and sat before the deputy wardens.

"You have been imprisoned in the dungeon for 20 years?" The deputy warden flipped through the prisoner's information.

"Yes...Mr. Deputy Warden, I realize the mistake I made..."

The deputy wardens looked at each other and rejected his application for release.

"Well done! Orcs are like that, they never know a mistake..."

A nobleman in the auditorium said, is there anyone else whispering that there are such rules in the dungeon?They thought that the guy thrown into the dungeon died within a few days.

As the old orc walked out of the room, they saw the high wall that was said to have risen miraculously in only a week.

The prisoners were called the old orc Freeman. Those prisoners included humans, centaurs, elves, and jackals, which were familiar to the De Chaso mercenary group.

As the carriage for the new prisoners drove into the high wall, the prisoners gathered around and bet who would be the first to break down: they would get the price of their impulses in the dungeon—the endless regrets left for the rest of their lives.

The prisoners in the dungeon thought of themselves and fell into a sad silence.

The first lesson the dungeon guards gave new prisoners was the cruelty of the dungeon. A new prisoner yelled after being unbearable in the darkness of the dungeon, and was dragged out of the room by the deputy warden. killed him.The rest of the new prisoners were silent.

On the second day, Andy and the prisoners went to the cafeteria to cook food, picked out the maggots, and was asked by old Zolun to feed them to the young birds picked up a few days ago.

The nobles thought it was vivid, but the prisoners thought it was unreal. They had no separate cells, no canteen, no brown rice, not even maggots.

The story continues.Freeman met Andy and learned that he was jailed for murdering his wife and adulterer, but he insisted that he was innocent.Andy suffered a lot in the dungeon. As a businessman, he struggled to adapt to the dirty work in the dungeon, and sometimes fended off the heinous criminals-but there were three of them.

Andy won't give up, so he always fights when trouble comes...sometimes he wins, but most of the time he loses.

The nobles were boasting that they would slit the attacker's throat with a dagger, the prisoners were also laughing, and Ms. Mia was wondering whether to let the children continue to watch.

Andy's ordeal continued until a turning point: the dungeon had to pick a group of prisoners to clean the high walls, their only chance to see outside.

Regardless of nobles or mercenaries, children or prisoners, they all hope that Andy can escape from the dungeon at this time.But Andy used another way to escape from here: on the high wall, the deputy warden was complaining that a batch of his goods were lost by the caravan, and he lost a lot of money.Andy told him that the goods of the caravan had signed a contract, and that if they lost the goods, they would have to pay three times the compensation, and promised to help the deputy warden get back the compensation, and the price was just to buy them a glass of beer..."

The prisoners sat on the high wall overlooking the vast city of Betal, as if the city and freedom were at their feet, and everyone held a glass of beer.The sun shines on their shoulders, as if they are free.

Andy sat not far away, watching them enjoy their beer, with a strange smile on his face.This smile is the same as that of many viewers in front of the magical image: a relieved and beautiful smile.

It seems that everything is starting to improve. The life in the dungeon no longer makes the audience feel depressed, and the nobles no longer chatter, but concentrate on being silent in the story.

Andy met the three brothers again, he was beaten half to death, but they failed again.Then the deputy warden broke the legs and ribs of the three brothers.Then the deputy warden introduced Andy to the warden and asked him to make false accounts for the warden.

Andy, who got asylum and was appreciated again, discovered that the warden had a Sorcerer's Stone from "The Fall of the Mage's Tower". He secretly took the Sorcerer's Stone away, and then locked himself on the second floor to show "Mage's Tower Falls" to all the prisoners in the square. The Tower Has Fallen".

This time the Prisoner audience can finally say: They did.

The price of doing this is that Andy was locked up for a week, but he was still liked by everyone, the prisoners, the jailers, the deputy warden, and the warden, they needed Andy's smart head.Andy also insisted on applying to the City Lord's Mansion to open a library in the dungeon.Apart from being in the dungeon, Andy never seemed to lose his freedom.

But a bad news came: the old Zolun who was released after serving his sentence died, he committed suicide...

Freeman, who has also been locked in the dungeon for decades, feels the same way. He said: "Old Zoren can't get out of here, he no longer adapts to the outside world. The high walls in the dungeon are very interesting... When you first come in, you hate the surroundings the high wall; slowly, you get used to living here; and finally, you will find yourself having to depend on it to survive."

Life has to go on. It was the tenth year that Andy came to the dungeon, and the sixth year when he insisted on applying to the city lord's mansion. He got a response: Ms. Lin Dong sponsored the dungeon library.

Annan tilted his head slightly at this time, and saw a curve appearing on Mrs. Lin Dong's hazy and noble side face.

Time is measured in years, and Andy, like Freeman, seems to be used to life in the dungeon.

But there is a bird that should not be kept in a cage, because every wing is covered with the light of freedom.In Andy, he found the real culprit who killed his wife and adulterer, but the warden refused because he was worried that the fake account would be exposed.

When the audience was worried about Andy, the magic video revealed the truth at the end: a tunnel that Andy had been digging with a pickaxe for 19 years.

On a thunderstorm night, Andy climbed into the tunnel, got into the cesspit, and knocked stones with the sound of thunder falling in front of the fence.Every thunder and percussion seemed to ring in the hearts of the audience.

Finally, when Andy, who was covered in dirt, climbed out of the cage leading to the outside of the dungeon and stretched out his arms to meet the torrential rain, the cheers in the auditorium were like thunder.

The story continued, when No. 40 was released from prison, Freeman said in relief: "I feel deeply guilty about what I have done all the time... This is not because I am here, nor is it to please you. Looking back, How much I want to say something to that stupid young man who committed a crime, tell him how I feel now, tell him that there are other ways to solve the problem. But I can't do it...you can vote it down, I give up."

As a result, the application was unexpectedly approved.But Freeman is different from Andy who always has hope. His hope has long been annihilated. He has experienced everything that old Zoren has experienced. That letter, I came to the address stated in the letter, and found a letter with the address and a sum of travel expenses under a fence.

Under the watchful eyes of the prisoners in the dungeon, the future citizens of Xingyue Bay, mercenaries, and nobles, Freeman trekked to the place Andy called the land of freedom, Xingyue Bay.On the beautiful and dreamy blue ocean and white sandy beach, Freeman saw Andy, who jumped out of a small wooden boat with bare feet and sleeves rolled up, and walked towards him.
