Daniel just died, without any waves.

Just like the two "candidates" before them, their deaths seem so abrupt, so unreal, and so heartily feel an indescribable sense of incongruity.

But, that's T.C.O, and that's the game of the Chosen.

In this "show", everyone can become the protagonist of the story, and everyone may also become a "dragon set" who is killed in the next second.

Death is always around the next corner, and it comes to them unexpectedly.

The lives of "candidates" who have an infinite number of possibilities may suddenly come to an abrupt end for some trivial reason.

The unpredictability of fate is infinitely magnified in each dungeon, there are not so many flukes, and no one cannot be killed.

In the dungeon world of T.C.O., everyone lives like a "clown", a "clown" who pleases the gods by burning his own life.

Of course, they themselves are also a tool used by the gods to "gamble", a means of winning "chips".

But no one will remember that the soul of the so-called "shell" of "Daniel Credlaw" was named Frederick.

No one cares either, Frederick was a member of the Swedish Special Forces, the Rangers, a well-known instructor in hand-to-hand combat tactics, and a father of two.

Oh, maybe that's not accurate enough.

Hercules took a fancy to him and chose him as his "pawn" to represent him, in addition to his special "bloodline cleanliness", he naturally fell in love with his extremely outstanding melee combat ability.

Even Hercules played a little trick outside the gambling game, so that Frederick, who should not have died so soon, ended his life in the real world in a hurry, thus becoming his "secret weapon" to turn the tables around.

But he died anyway.

In the copy of "T.C.O", dead is dead, which means losing everything, which means that it is a hundred, which means that it is the greatest fairness in this already unfair world.

Frederick, or rather, "Daniel" is dead, but our story goes on.

Moreover, his death is not meaningless, at least his death will serve as a clue to a more hidden organization, and a greater chaos.

That was the Assassin Brotherhood.

As an ancient and secretive Assassin order, the Brotherhood of Assassins (of course, they didn't have that name at first, or rather, they didn't have a name) actually originated in Egypt between 49 and 43 BCE, a covert operations force, the Faceless.

Due to the betrayal of Cleopatra VII, the "Faceless Ones" were betrayed to Julius Caesar, the consul of Rome, in a so-called "political rebalancing".

The fate of a secret operation force of a declining country that has been betrayed to a terrible neighbor who is in a period of subversion, whether military, political, or economic, is naturally conceivable.

Subsequently, the few survivors left behind by the "Faceless One" faked the illusion that they had died in battle, and mixed into pieces among the common people, becoming a group of secret societies while secretly accumulating power.

Their central goal was to vow to take bloody revenge on the betrayer Cleopatra VII and the executioner Gaius Julius Caesar, in order to honor their loved ones and comrades who were mercilessly killed in the turmoil.

However, at that time, Cleopatra VII and Gaius Julius Caesar were at the peak of their political power, and both of them were aware of the blood and debt they had carried, so the protection force around them was always at an outrageous level, so the difficulty of revenge can be imagined.

But the "faceless ones" who survived did not give up lightly.

After careful thinking and exchanges, they agreed that if they want to complete the sanctions and assassination of a country's leaders, it is the only feasible path for them to achieve revenge.

At the same time, because they have been betrayed by their former loyal monarchs, they have gradually formed political views such as "politics is dirty and dark", "rulers never care about the feelings of those who are ruled", and "they are also born as human beings, so why should one group of people be ruled by another group of people".

On this basis, they gradually formed two core values: "the so-called state, religion, and nation are all artificially created concepts, all serve the ruling class, and are unreliable, and the people should be good at defending the power in their hands", and "the real state should be one where everyone can fully enjoy their own freedom, and the freedom does not infringe on the freedom of others as the boundary", and then distilled and summarized the famous "Assassin's Creed" in history, that is, "all things are false, and all times are allowed" （Nothing is true，Everything is permitted）。

In order to carry out this creed, these surviving faceless people began to devote themselves to helping the people at the bottom to pursue freedom, fairness and justice, they began to hunt and assassinate corrupt officials who oppressed the masses, lynched the privileged and powerful classes, and even began to try to incite the people to revolt and overthrow the tyranny of the king.

They began to walk between light and darkness, using all means permitted and not permitted by the law to carry out their freedom and justice.

It wasn't until 31 BC that they succeeded in assassinating Cleopatra VII, who had been imprisoned by Octavian, using a cobra hidden in a fruit basket (so ingenious that later historians believe that Cleopatra died by suicide), completing their revenge on the monarch who betrayed them.

But their footsteps did not stop because of the success of revenge.

In fact, more and more members, attracted by the ever-chanted slogan (i.e., "All things are false, all things are allowed"), resolutely joined the "Assassin Brotherhood", and sacrificed their blood and lives to pursue this belief.

However, due to the secret and loose organizational model of the "Assassin Brotherhood", the inheritance of Assassin skills under the master-apprentice system, and the extremely strict and almost harsh rules for membership screening, the size of its members has always been maintained at the level of more than 100 people, and its subversion period has never exceeded 500 people.

This continued until 1119 AD, because in that year, the Knights Templar were founded.

After this, the Assassin Brotherhood finally welcomed its mortal enemy, the Knights Templar.

Unlike the liberalism preached by the Assassin Brotherhood, the Knights Templar emphasized that order was at the heart of the development of human society.

Only order can ensure the development of human society on an orderly track, and only order can ensure that the country will not be led into the abyss invisible to no one by those "stupid people".

They are committed to upholding the divine power, the monarchy, and the justice under the level permitted by the law, they emphasize respect and inferiority, emphasize that all strata should have what each stratum should be, and if they want to pursue a better life, they must work hard at the level allowed by the rules, instead of thinking about overthrowing this and overthrowing that all day long.

They believe that disordered human society is more terrible than wild beasts.

The Knights Templar and the Assassin Brotherhood were twins of light and darkness, both of whom were equally committed to the advancement of human civilization, but because of their different paths, they remained hostile to each other and even broke out into armed conflict.

The first confrontation between the two took place over the snatching of a Christian holy artifact, the "Fragment of Eden".

Since then, over the next 100 years, the two sides have had hundreds of bloody clashes, large and small, in the context of different occasions, and in the previous conflicts, the Knights Templar, with their extraordinary strength, large numbers, strong financial resources, and in a period of development and subversion, have undoubtedly been in an overwhelming position, causing the Assassin Brotherhood to suffer heavy losses and accumulating an indelible blood feud between the two sides.

As a last resort, the Assassin Brotherhood was once again forced to go completely underground, and secretly watched the course of history.

It was not until October 1307 that the Templars were ironically punished by King Philip IV of France, the monarchy they defended, and the Assassin Brotherhood took the opportunity to take revenge by sniping at the remnants of the Templar Order.

During that time, the Knights Templar suffered an irrepressible blow like a lost dog.

This situation was not alleviated until the remnants of the Knights Templar, who had been renamed the Order of St. Dumas, created an artificial hybrid of lifeforms, the "Angels of Death", in Sweden.

But today, at the moment when the unknown assassin armed with the legendary Hidden Blade, Altaïr's Touch, killed Daniel, who was wearing a red cross robe, today's immortality was almost doomed.
