After rushing overnight, the two finally arrived in Masyaf the next morning.

"Phew~"

In front of the gate of Masyaf, the two grabbed the reins of the horses, and then turned underneath. After walking into Masyaf, Amami Shu sighed in his heart that he had finally come to this place that he had crossed at the beginning.

Walking on the way to the Assassin Fortress, Amami Shu looked around and couldn't help but ask suspiciously, "Why are there so few pedestrians on the streets?" ”

"yes." Altaïr couldn't help but wonder about this: "Masyaf was under the protection of the Assassins, and was usually very bustling and bustling. Why is there not a single pedestrian now. ”

The two walked to a place where they usually set up a stall, and Altaïr said suspiciously, "Even the vendors who set up the stalls are gone, where have everyone gone?" ”

The two looked around, but neither saw anyone.

"Let's go find Al Mualim first."

Altaïr led Amami to the Assassin fortress on the mountain, where he saw a figure loitering under a large tree.

The two of them immediately ran a few steps quickly, came to this person, and asked eagerly, "Brother, what's going on here?" Where has everyone gone? “

The man who was hanging out heard someone talking to him, and looked up at Altaïr and Amami. When he looked up, Tianjian Xiu found that something was wrong. He didn't see the kind of look that a normal person should have in the other party's eyes. Instead, he appears very distracted, like a person who has lost consciousness.

The other party's reply to the two of them was also quite weird, and his tone was also very stiff and weak.

"It's all going to see the master." He said this.

"See Master, what's going on? Could it be that the Templars are attacking again? Altaïr asked eagerly.

"Don't worry Altaïr, ask clearly."

But the man's answer was that the donkey's lips were not on the horse's mouth, and he said, "The way he walked." ”

Altaïr looked puzzled, "What road?" What the hell are you talking about? ”

"It's bright." The man said again.

"Tell me clearly, what exactly are you trying to say?" Altaïr was anxious.

And the man was still speaking numbly: "Only what the master shows us is the truth." ”

Altaïr was now eager to go up and punch his opponent twice. He didn't answer any of his own questions, and kept saying something here that was not the same as the donkey's lips.

But he also noticed that there was something wrong with this person. "You're delirious."

"You're going to go that way, too. Otherwise, they will be wiped out, and they must obey the orders of the master. The man's body shook slightly. Although he was talking, his eyes didn't seem to be looking at Altaïr, or at Amamishu.

As if ignoring him, Altaïr's brow furrowed, "What the hell is going on, how did he end up like this?" ”

Then, something suddenly occurred to him, "The Apple of Eden can control people's minds, it's Al Mualim, it's he who used the Apple of Eden!" ”

"Well, looking at the current situation, there is no doubt that Al Mualim did it." Amami Shu nodded. He still remembered this episode, and the person who caused all this was Al Mualim. Now Al Mualim is able to use some of the abilities of the Apple of Eden.

"Let's go, let's go find Al Mualim now!" Altaïr gritted his teeth and quickly ran up the hill. Amami Xiu followed closely behind.

On the way up the mountain, the two saw civilians again. But these Pingming, as seen before, are lifeless, and their eyes are glazed. Wandering around in a daze, his mouth still muttering something similar to what the man had said before.

It's a big deal.

Afterwards, the two rushed to the mountain. On the mountain trail, the two met with the rest of the Assassin Order's brothers. Altaïr, who wanted to go over to inquire about the situation, was caught by Amami Shui.

Altaïr looked at Amami in bewilderment, who shook his head. "Think of the civilians below, these Assassins should have been controlled by Al Mualim as well. If we rush forward to say hello, I'm afraid a fight is inevitable. ”

Altaïr looked at the Assassins with a pang of discomfort in his heart. These former brothers now have no thoughts of their own and are controlled by others.

"Let's get out of the way."

Fortunately, the platform on this level was large, and the two of them went around the edge of the platform, dodging the assassins and continuing to walk up the mountain road.

I didn't expect to meet Malik on the mountain road. Malik was standing beside four Assassins, and when they saw Amami and Altaïr, they immediately greeted excitedly: "Altaïr, Amami, I didn't expect you to come here too." ”

The two of them hurried over.

"yes, it's a good time for you to come."

"Seems so."

"Protect yourself, friend. Al Mualim has betrayed us. Altaïr commanded.

"Yes. It's like betraying the Templars. ”

Altaïr looked at Malik in surprise, "How do you know?" ”

Malik explained, "After you left, I wanted to learn about the Pieces of Eden. So he returned to the ruins beneath Solomon's temple. Unexpectedly, I happened to find a journal that Robert left there, recording the relationship between them. ”

What a coincidence. Tianjian Xiu thought speechlessly.

Malik said in a deep voice, "It makes me sad to see this, but it also makes me see what I really think." You're right, Altaïr. He has been using us all along, and we are not saving the Holy Land, but giving it to Him. He must be stopped! ”

Amami Shu stepped forward and admonished, "Be careful, Malik. The slightest negligence will make everyone like everyone else, and you have to keep your distance from him. ”

"What do you suggest?" Malik asked. "My sword-bearing hand is still strong, and my men are faithful, and they cannot afford not to do anything."

Amamishu thought for a moment and suggested, "In this way, you go and attract the attention of the patrols and attack the fortress from behind, and Al Mualim will be left to me and Altaïr to deal with." ”

"Okay."

"And." Amami Shu instructed again: "If you can, try to avoid fighting between the two sides." After all, they are all brothers of the organization, and they are only controlled. ”

"Of course." Malik replied, "Just because they have betrayed our creed does not mean that we must do the same. I'll do my best. ”

After some discussion with each other, the plan was finalized.

Altaïr greeted and said with a final blessing, "Alright, let's do it." Peace be upon you, my friend. ”

Malik likes: "You are here, and you can bless us as well." ”

The two groups then separated. Amami Shu and Altaïr followed the mountain path and hurried upward. Malik led his men down the hill, attracting patrols along the way, and then rounding the back of the fortress to help Altaïr and Amami.
