"Romans? Still have guards by your side? Brother, for the sake of our many years of friendship, tell me, who is this person? I don't want to ruin my brothers in my gang because of this errand. You are my brothers, and so are they. According to my speculation, the person to be assassinated this time must be someone of the rank of an officer. Tell me the truth, Tabellas. ”

The deal, located in the heart of Alexandria, was quickly stalled by the executor's doubts. Although the gang that Tabelas was looking for also supported a few Assassins, the small gang did not dare to do anything to some of the big ones. This was something that Tabelas and Damasips had not anticipated beforehand. They thought that as long as the money was enough, these little assassins would be willing to do it. But now it seems that things are not so simple.

"Well, brother, if I tell you who this person is, can you keep it a secret for me?"

Taberas had no choice but to do so, and in Alexandria, the high-ranking Assassin Order was loyal to the Queen, and was under her watch. Only these second-rate gangs go unnoticed. Now, Apis and Cleopatra are working together more and more closely, and they can no longer be allowed to develop. Tabellas made a heartfelt bet.

"I promise."

"No, I want you to swear to the gods."

Taberas was not at ease with the ruffian boss in front of him, and he demanded not only loyalty, but also oaths. The importance that the ancient Romans attached to oaths cannot be ignored.

"I swear to the god of Apollo that I will not reveal the content of your conversation with anyone."

"Well, that's enough, right? Brothers. ”

The leader of the Assassin Society, Lumanbis, swore an oath.

"The man I want you to assassinate is indeed not an ordinary person, he is the master of the Western world in Rome - Appis. Commander-in-chief of the Western armies, sworn enemy of General Mark Antony. ”

Tabellas said solemnly.

In the next second, the other party's eyes became frightened and melancholy. The deal was too big for the leader of the Little Assassins, Lumanbis. It's like buying and selling a horse-drawn carriage a year, which suddenly increases to ten large ships a month. A hundred of the people they used to take money and assassinate were not worth the head of one Apis. If the assassination was successful, the whole Roman world would be changed. To put it bluntly, he will become the first hero of Anthony's subordinates, and if he fails, Apis will send someone to hunt him down for the rest of his life, and he can only live in the horror of being hunted down and assassinated for the rest of his life.

"Appis...... When did he come to Alexandria? ”

Lumanbis asked hesitantly.

"Two months ago, he came by himself, quietly."

Bertalas observed the ruffian's expression and demeanor in front of him, and told him the current situation.

"I just know that there have been a lot of doctors in Alexandria lately, and they have used miraculous methods to control the plague, do these people have anything to do with the arrival of Abys?"

Lumanbis asked, confused. He was about to think about the connection between the two. But Bertalas stopped him from thinking about it in time.

"It doesn't matter, you see, the physicians who came to Alexandria were all Oriental faces, and his medical skills were also the behavior of the Orientals. Have you ever seen a Roman doctor who used a poisonous snake to heal a disease? ”

"No ......"

"That's right, they were summoned by Anthony, from all kingdoms, tribes, to Alexander to control this plague. Appis heard that he would come to the city later, but his aim was to get close to Cleopatra, to Cleopatra, and to persuade her to ally with him. ”

"How is this possible?"

Lumanbis took the case. He even laughed at Appis's foolish dreams from his heart.

"Yes, it can't be. But we have to be just in case. So, here comes your task. ”

Tabelas continued.

"Tell me where Appis is."

Lumanbis hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to take the risk and take the job. The probability of its success is not impossible, first of all, Apis came alone. Secondly, the queen did not agree to cooperate with him, and after this business is completed, she will be able to have enough food and clothing in this life, and she will no longer have to be stained with those foul smelling blood. Once you take a risk, you don't have to risk it again, and the business seems worth it. At least in his opinion, it is.

"135 Via Pylos, it's a luxurious apartment, he probably has one or two guards around him, and you'll need to have a few more men to disperse the guards around him. But don't bring too much, there are many people talking about it, and it is easy to leak something. Got it? ”

Tabelas frowned, and commanded solemnly.

This assassination is not only related to the life and safety of the leader of the small gang in front of him, but also the life of his own Dama Sips. It is not impossible that Rumambis would be caught and confess after some torture.

"Okay, I see. Brother, I hope this time, you don't deceive me, hide anything from me, this business, I have bet all my belongings, even the lives of my wife and children. ”

"Be brave and do it, when have I ever deceived you? Rumambis. We've worked together so many times, and I haven't hid anything from you once, have I? ”

Tabelas replied with a smile.

"In the past, I hope this time too. You understand my situation. ”

"Understood. And, brother, when this is done, you sail to Asia Minor, and go to Pergamon to find Antony, and I have already contacted him, and when he gets there, he will settle you and your men, and your wife and children. Because, you will be Anthony's greatest hero. In the future, if Antony conquers Rome, you will also gain endless wealth and status. ”

Tabelas said proudly. He saw that Lumanbis's face was slightly full of confidence. Indeed, it is the immense wealth and supreme position that tempt mankind to take risks. The fate of the little people can only be achieved through adventures again and again.

…………

"It's arranged."

After meeting with the leader of the Assassin Society, Luminbius, Taberas returned to his residence, where Cleopatra's vizier Damasipps had been waiting for a long time. Although the ploy is simple, it is just an assassination. However, the preparation before and after is very thorough. Because it's plotting things on the Queen's turf. Without the support of the army, everything has to be done carefully.

"That's good. Also, I've already arranged our retreat. I bought a merchant ship that had come from Pergamon to Alexandria to trade, and if the Assassin failed, we would immediately board the ship and flee to Asia Minor to seek refuge in Antony. ”

Dama Syps said.
