Chapter 64: The Battle of Robert

Tenmi Xiu was holding Maria hostage and letting her go in front, while he and Altaïr walked behind her. Maria struggled and ordered her men to leave her mind and take down the Assassin at once. However, her two knights of the guards did not obey her orders this time, and in order to save her life, they could not do anything, but had to keep an eye on the two assassins.

"Damn." Maria turned her head in annoyance and glanced at Amami.

Amami Shu turned a blind eye to this and pushed Maria out of the cemetery. The Templars and archers in the cemetery were also closing in. After walking some distance out of the cemetery, Amami shoved Maria away with all his might, and the two turned and fled.

"Chase! Be sure to take down these two assassins! Before Maria could stabilize herself, she ordered her men to pursue the Assassins.

"Yes!"

The Templars shouted at the order, followed by a dozen archers and guards who had just gathered nearby. The guards gave full pursuit, but could not find the Assassin.

How could Amami and Altaïr be able to keep up with their speeds, not to mention that both Assassins were proficient in the art of hiding.

It didn't take long for the two of them to shake off the pursuers behind them.

The two hid in a relatively secret place. After a few breaths, Altaïr frowned and said, "I didn't expect this Robert to be dressed as a woman. What a good strategy. ”

"Well, that's a really good plan. Although we guessed that this was a trap at the beginning, we didn't expect that the other party would send a fake body to lure us into the bait. ”

"This assassination failed, and the next time I want to get rid of Robert, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult." Altaïr felt a little helpless. If you fail to assassinate once, the opponent will not let you succeed next time.

Tianjian Xiu said with a smile: "Don't worry, there is still one more chance." ”

"Oh? How so? Altaïr raised his eyebrows, thinking, is there any other way to do it?

"I just got word from the Templars that Robert is on his way to Arsuf to join forces with Islam against the Assassins. ”

"Joining forces? It seems that you have guessed this as well. Altaïr nodded. For example, the two conjectures of today's meditation have been confirmed.

"Robert only rushed to Arsuf this morning, and he probably doesn't know the news that we escaped from this trap intact. Therefore, you and I should hurry to Arsuf and I may have the opportunity to assassinate him before he has yet to negotiate with Islam. ”

"Well, that's all there is to it now. Without further ado, we immediately headed for Arsuf. "Amami Shu didn't have a detailed plan though. But it's nice to think about it in the shortest amount of time.

The two men quickly left Jerusalem and hurried to Arsuf.

On the way, Amamishu asked Altaïr: "How long will it take to get from Jerusalem to Arsuf at our current pace?" ”

Altaïr rode his horse, pondered the distance from Jerusalem to Arsuf, and made a rough calculation, "At our current speed, we will probably be able to reach Arsuf before the sun sets." But it should not be possible for the horse to be so fast all the time, and I am afraid that by the time it reaches Arsuf, it will already be night. ”

There is still some distance between Jerusalem and Arsuf. Although the two have always been moving at the fastest pace. But after all, it was a horse, not a car. Horses can't keep up their optimum speed all the time, and when they feel tired, their speed will definitely drop.

Is it night?

Amami Shu sneered in his heart, 'It's better to go into the night, the night is the home of the Assassins......

As Altaïr calculated. By the time the two of them arrived at Arsuf, the sun had completely set, and the whole of Arsuf had fallen into darkness. What made Tianjian Xiu even happier was that there was still fog tonight, and there was no wind.

God help me.

The two of them were secretly happy in their hearts, and in this case, the success rate of the assassination of Robert was several percent more.

The two parked their horses not too close, not too far from Arsuf. In order to facilitate the situation, the two of them escaped on horseback.

The fog of the night lowered the line of sight of the Arsuf soldiers, as well as the two Assassins. However, the two Assassins possessed a natural ability, Eagle Eye.

Outside the fence, on the edge of a cliff a few dozen meters away, three soldiers stood facing the bottom of the cliff (below the cliff was the road that circled against the mountain).

The two assassins quietly walked over, first using their Hidden Blades, one by one. The rest of the one, Amami Shuben wanted to kick the other party down. But I was afraid that the other party would scream, so I still solved it with a flying knife. After all three soldiers had been dealt with, the body hid behind a rock on the edge of the cliff to avoid detection.

Outside the fence, the two checked the fence.

The fence, which is nearly three meters high, is made up of wooden stakes. The top of each stake is sharpened to prevent anyone from jumping over from the top of the fence.

The fence is divided into two sections, one against the hill and the other against the high rock on the edge of the cliff. In the middle of the two sections of fence is a lookout made of wood, which looks a little rudimentary. It is estimated that Robert built it after arriving in Arsuf.

At the front two corners of the lookout, there are two torches. However, due to the fog, the range of light is not very large. On the platform stood two archers. Under the lookout, behind the stakes, stood four soldiers.

The torches on the platform did not illuminate the audience, so the two men stood in front of the lookout at this time, and the archers above could not see the assassin at all.

Moreover, on the way here, the two also changed into the black assassin robes prepared by Amami Shu, which made it even more difficult to see the assassin figure under the fog.

The two of them used their throwing knives to eliminate the archers on the lookout, and then quickly climbed onto the lookout. After spotting the four soldiers below, the two unsheathed their Hidden Blades and jumped down. The Hidden Blade went straight into the back of the soldier's neck, and with the other hand threw out the throwing knife, killing the other two soldiers in an instant.

In order to avoid being discovered by the patrolling soldiers, the two dragged the bodies of four soldiers and dragged them to the side of the mountain and stacked them together.

After climbing over the fence and the lookout, you can count it as Arsuf. But there was still some distance from Robert's camp, so both of them walked for a while.

A few hundred meters away, the two assassins had been cautious and drove forward with their [Eagle Eyes]. As soon as you encounter soldiers and archers, they will be dealt with directly, and then dragged to the side of the mountain and stacked together.

In this operation, the two had to be careful. After all, the two of them were going to Robert's army camp. In case of alarming a patrolling soldier or an archer, the other party will give a signal. That's hundreds of soldiers and dozens of Templars.

No matter how awesome the two of them are, they can't do so many people.

"Poof!"

After dealing with a few soldiers passing by on patrol again, dragging them aside and hiding them. The two walked a short distance and finally came to the place where Robert had set up camp.
