Chapter 53: The Legacy of the Master Assassins
"Crunch~"
Arno opened the basement door, clubbed his eagle-headed cane, and slowly walked into the mission release room.
"Congratulations to the leaders for completing their leadership mission to save child laborers.
Rewards: 1,000 gold coins, Assassin level up one level, Master Assassin Legacy Holy Water, will be sent at this moment, please pay attention to receive. β
As the sound of the system fell, the familiar blue glow enveloped Arno again, and countless knowledge and experience were transmitted into Arno's brain, and unknown powers roamed in his body, transforming his physique.
After a long time, the ghostly light dissipated, and Arno raised his hand to grab the glass bottle that appeared out of thin air with a blue light, and he looked at the glass bottle in his hand thoughtfully: "This is the Assassin Master's Inheritance Holy Water?"
"Yes, you have the Master Assassin Legacy Potion in your hand, when any Assassin reaches the level of the Assassin Captain, drink the Legacy Potion, and you will receive a random Assassin Master Legacy and be directly promoted to the Master Assassin. β
Arno stuffed the potion into his arms, looked at the two gold chains hanging from his shawl, and then looked up at the transparent screen in mid-air:
Hiding Place: Trainee Assassins (including child laborers who have not drunk holy water)*1647. Novice Assassins*2 (James father and daughter). Veteran Assassin*2. 13 Skilled Assassins. 1 Assassin Captain. Master Assassin*0 (all Assassins are promoted by one level except Pete in the Blacksmith)
Arno nodded with satisfaction: "Ha, I think in a few years, the Brotherhood will have a large number of Assassin Captains and Assassin Masters!"
"Sorry for interrupting your fantasies, Trainee Assassins, Novice Assassins, and Veteran Assassins are all relatively easy and fast.
However, starting with a skilled Assassin, the speed of an Assassin's promotion will be very slow, and from this level onwards, the talent of an Assassin will seriously affect the speed of the Assassin's promotion, a skilled Assassin with poor talent may work hard for twenty years to be promoted, and an Assassin captain may not be able to become a Master Assassin in his life if his talent is too poor. β
Arno was stunned: "Talent, then how should I test the talent of the assassin?"
"This requires you, as the Mentor of the Assassins, to observe and judge for yourself, and the system cannot test the talents of the Assassins. β
Arno nodded helplessly, turned around and prepared to leave the mission release room, where the sound of the system continued to sound.
"As a reminder, when the leader officially becomes a Master Assassin, the tasks and rewards issued by the system will be assigned according to the decision of the mentor, provided that they do not violate the creed. β
Arno rubbed his brow in a headache, and then left the mission release room without saying a word.
ββββββββββββββ
Arno sat in the study, raised the glass bottle in his hand to his eyes, and looked at the pale blue liquid in the bottle: "This is the Master Assassin's Inheritance Holy Water?"
Arno thought about it for a long time, reached out and uncorked the bottle, opened his mouth and drank it.
As the holy water entered his body, the scene in front of Arno's eyes suddenly blurred, and then slowly collapsed on the desk......
In a daze, Arno heard the conversation of the crowd around him, and he came back to his senses, looking at the crowd of people coming and going, and found himself in the corridor of a palace peculiar to Europe, surrounded by elegant and classical frescoes, around which were hung tapestries sewn with gold wire, and large chandeliers hung overhead.
"Arno!"
Arnold turned his head to look at the place where he was shouting, where a man with a dark golden ponytail and dressed in the costume of an 18th-century French aristocrat shouted out to him, with a hint of impatience on his face.
Arno realized that he could not control the movement of his body, and the body ran towards the man, then sat on a chair in the hallway, looking at the man, "Can't I go with you, father?"
The man smiled at Arno and crouched down in front of him, "Child, be brave." β
Then the man took out a pocket watch from his bosom and handed it to Arnold: "You wait here, wait for the minute hand to go to the top, and I will be back." β
A lost child's voice came from Arno's body: "That's forever ......"
"It wasn't that long. The man patiently explained to the body, "When I get back, we can go see the fireworks." β
The man got up and walked forward, and then, as if thinking of something, stopped and turned to look at Arno: "And Arno, don't go on an expedition, okay?"
"Yes, Father!"
Arno looked at this familiar scene, and already guessed where he was.
Then a little girl appeared not far away, let out a burst of laughter, and Arno thought helplessly: "Sure enough, the owner of this body is Arno Victor Dorian, the man just now is Charles Dorian, and then this girl is Alice Drassell, and then because Arno did not listen to his father, he went out with Alice to "adventure", causing Charles to wait here for a while, and then was assassinated by Shay here. β
Sure enough, as Arno thought, Arno did not listen to his father's advice, and was attracted by the girl in the distance, got up from his seat, ran out to steal the apple from the girl, and then when he returned to the place where he was separated from his father, he found his father lying on the ground surrounded by a crowd.
Arnold was then adopted by FranΓ§ois, raised in the De La Serre home, and was assassinated in Versailles for failing to deliver the letter to FranΓ§ois, and was framed as a murderer and imprisoned in the Bastille.
He then joined the Brotherhood of Paris and killed two of FranΓ§owki's real assassins......
Arno passively experienced Arno's life, his father was assassinated, his adoptive father joined the Brotherhood because of his own assassination, and was expelled from the Brotherhood because of his actions, his friend became the biggest enemy, and his lover died in front of his eyes.
Arno witnessed the mistakes he had made in this life, his amends, his regrets, his anger.
Arno could feel the pain every time he was injured, and every sadness and anger would be fully conveyed to him.
Until Arno lay on the bed in old age, struggling to hold the frame with Alice's picture in his hands, and there was some sadness and relief hidden in his cloudy eyes: "I think we may meet again, and if only then, we could forget where we stand, and forget the mistakes made by each of us......"
Arno struggled to raise his head and looked at the window next to the bed, looking at the clear sky outside the window, he slowly closed his eyes, his head leaned limply on the bed-table, and the picture frame in his hand fell on his chest......
ββββββββββββββ
Arno sat up from his desk and reached for his quill pen to write something.
"Click!"
With a crisp sound, Arno looked at the pen holder that was holding only powder in his hand, and shook his head helplessly: "I think I will be busy in the future, mastering the sudden explosion of power, negotiating with the nightingale, building an intelligence point, and successfully legislating the child labor protection law, I think I need to add another ...... Construct a statue of Arno Victor Dorian, Master Assassin, in the mission release room. β
