Chapter 44: The Assassin and the Knight: Alice's Resurrection
Where to find Ayman? Mary died, and the trail was broken again. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Tang Tu was confused.
At this moment, the mysterious voice in my head reappeared, "Go to the Louvre, right away, speed!" This time, the mysterious voice was a little less calm and a little more anxious.
Tang Tu immediately ran, jumped all the way from the roof, and came to the square of the Louvre, where an acquaintance saw him first.
The Marquis de Sade was sitting next to the fountain pool, holding a quill in his hand and writing something, but obviously he was not paying attention, and greeted Tang Tu from a long distance, "Arnold, long time no see, just in time, I need some advice... Which one do you think is the sharper accusation against corruption in the church, whether it is the seven nuns who seduce a priest, or the powerful Benedictine priest Chicken Girl who a goat called Sanctuary? ā
The corners of Tang Tu's mouth twitched, "I'm sorry, I don't understand what you're saying..."
Marquis Sade snorted, "Arnold, it's still so simple, it's just a scapegoat anyway, what's the difference... Ah, did you come here to find me? What can we do for you? ā
"Aiman, silversmith Aiman, do you know where to find him?" Tang Tu asked.
Marquis Sade shook his head regretfully, "I don't know about this, after all, I'm not his follower, how could he let me know where he's hiding."
However, I have a bold guess that Ayman has done so much, single-handedly pushing for the death of the king, and inciting the parliament to put the king to death, I think he will go to the execution ground to witness the king's death, which is what he considers to be the greatest victory. ā
Tang Tu was surprised, "The king was arrested, so fast?" ā
Not long ago, the king was holding a banquet in the Luxembourg Palace, and in the short time that Tang Tu killed Mary, the Cutting Army had already broken into the Luxembourg Palace and captured the king.
The Marquis de Sade sighed regretfully, "Although I knew that this day would come, poor Louis... Aiman single-handedly controlled the parliament, pushing for a vote to decide the life and death of the king, and sending people to arrest him, and with a vote difference, poor Louis was finally going to the guillotine... I think they're already on their way to the execution ground. ā
Tang Tu was shocked, no wonder the mysterious voice seemed very eager just now, how did he feel that the plot of the main mission suddenly accelerated?
Tang Tu didn't want to talk nonsense, turned around and ran towards the execution ground. The Marquis de Sade reminded behind his back, "Take care, young man, this old fox is not easy to deal with..."
The central execution ground was crowded with people, many people were dealt with here, and people often came to watch the execution, but never before were so many people here at the same time as today.
King Louis XVI was locked in a carriage and looked at the people in the square with a dead face, and the crowd shouted "Liberty" and these people cheered for his death.
The guillotine executioner was ready, and Louis XVI was pulled out of the carriage and pushed onto the guillotine.
The crowd became agitated, they shouted loudly, and the guards who maintained order shouted at the people, "Quiet! All quiet down! In the presence of God Almighty, let justice be carried out here with dignity! ā
But the crowd was on the march, and the guards could not be heard, and someone pointed at Louis XVI and shouted, "Look at this depraved man!" This tyrant! This one who has blasphemed the friendship of mankind! ā
On the guillotine, the executioner carried Louis XVI to the front of the stage and shouted to the crowd, "Despicable and hypocritical ruler, because of your wickedness and cunning, you have plunged France into turmoil, and the crimes of your improper rule will be paid for with death."
We will witness all this, and if there is a betrayal of the principles of the State in deed or in thought, this is the punishment that the citizens of the whole country expect, regardless of their dignity of men and women. ā
The crowd shouted "freedom," and another speaker shouted, "Any citizen who conspires to destroy the freedom we have just won and wants to dim the light of our glorious death should face the same fate."
What we do here today will go down in history! Our children, for generations, will remember this day, and today is the day of the birth of freedom! May all mankind be liberated! ā
Tang Tu had been standing at a high point in the distance for a bird's-eye view, looking for Aiman's figure in the crowd, and finally found him in the stands behind the guillotine, this person finally showed his true face, and no longer hid his head and tail in front of people.
It was impossible to get through the crowd to the stands, so Tang Tu jumped down from the roof to the rear, ran to the mouth of the sewer on the next street, walked through the sewer, and climbed up not far from the stands.
Because there were four guards at the mouth of the sewer, Tang Tu was worried that it would be too late, so he could only stealthily come out of the sewer, bypass the guards next to him, and come behind an obstacle.
Aiman was in the stands in front of him, Tang Tu's eyes sank, his hand pressed on the short sword on his waist, and the Phantom Hidden Blade was also ready.
Tang Tu lowered his head and walked towards the stands, and suddenly a few people came out from under the stands, seeing that their posture was towards Tang Tu.
Tang Tu immediately understood that this was a trap, and Aiman had long expected him to come, so he ambushed people here and waited. However, what puzzled Tang Tu was, why didn't these people be found under the eyes of the eagle?
Because there were too many people around, Tang Tu didn't act rashly, and the people on the other side also surrounded him and didn't do it immediately.
At this time, Aiman walked out of the stands, he looked at Arnold and said, "Arnold. Dorian, welcome here, it's fitting that you're here to witness this moment, as your mistakes were able to take out Draxle, and now the Templars have finally been reborn. ā
Tang Tu squinted, "Sure enough, you killed Draxle, and the people of the Knights made you the new head like this?" What a bunch of knights who have no position. ā
Aiman sighed and seemed very regretful, "I used to want him to understand the world, the Order has been corrupted, and it is wrong to cling to power for personal gain, in fact, many people are aware of this, and they will help me secretly, I just set things right, I can only kill him."
Look, look at these crazy populaces, and the king like a dead dog, the death of Drassel was the beginning, and now is the real climax. ā
The guillotine play was at its highest, when Louis XVI knelt down at the executioner's push, his head pressed against the guillotine, and the guillotine was about to fall.
It is said that this guillotine was designed by Louis XVI himself, and today he can finally experience whether this thing is good or not, and I wonder if he thought that his life would end here.
The shouts of the people were high, and Aiman couldn't help but turn around and look over there, at this moment, Tang Tu's eyes darkened, and he raised his hand to launch the Phantom Hidden Blade, and the flying sword went towards Aiman's throat.
The "bang" flying sword unexpectedly did not hit Aiman, but was blocked.
Looking at the person standing in front of Aiman, Tang Tu exclaimed in surprise, "Alice?!" You're resurrected?! ā
