Chapter 62: You're on the First Floor This Time (Asking for Recommendation Votes)
Wait until Zhou Yi leaves.
Carlos looked at Wesley, who had been looking at him, a little helpless.
"If there's anything you want to ask, just ask."
“…… I've always felt unreliable...... Wesley thought for a moment, but spoke.
"Why do you think it's unreliable?" Carlos asked, picking up a gun from the table and starting to examine it.
"Is it because you think what we're about to do is impossible to achieve, or is it because what we're doing now is too different from what you idealize?"
“…… It's all a little bit of that. Wesley nodded hesitantly.
"I'm not going to bring you in if we're not sure about what we're about to do."
"You don't think it's possible, but it's actually ...... The Assassin Brotherhood now has less than a hundred members. ”
Wesley: "??? ”
So, how did the two organizations that have been inherited for thousands of years get mixed up to get to the point where they are now?
Presumably seeing Wesley's confusion, Carlos explained, "Do you remember what I said in the car about the purpose of the Assassin Brotherhood? ”
"Freedom, destiny, and ...... Kill one, save a thousand? Wesley recalled.
"Yes, so you should understand how difficult it is to hold on to such beliefs."
"Over the course of all these years, the Assassins have suffered heavy losses in the war against the Templars, despite their victories."
"If there is no enemy, there will be no struggle, so the new blood will gradually decrease."
"But that doesn't mean our task is light." Carlos said.
"With less than a hundred members, the Brotherhood of Assassins is still one of the most unprovoked organizations in the world."
"Because, every assassin has a strong combat ability and has the bloodline of an assassin like us, but each person's time and amplification effect are different."
"So, the mission is not impossible, but it's not easy, and we can win over some people who still believe in the Assassins' faith, and it will all take time."
Carlos put the gun back on the table and said, "And about the ...... we're doing right now"
"I can probably guess what you think, maybe you think that the world of killers should be like in the movie, above board, with beautiful women in fragrant cars and sunglasses and suits...... Then, in the midst of talking and laughing, kill and leave with ease? ”
Carlos shook his head, "Most of those people are stupid and won't survive the next day, Wesley." ”
"In addition to the vast majority of fools, there are some people who can indeed do this level, and there are only a handful of such people, even I dare not do that."
"Remember, everything needs to be acquired through hard work, and that's why I don't want to take you into this world, because you need to put in ten times more effort than ordinary people, and you also risk your life to become one of the only master assassins in ten thousand."
"You're talented, Wesley, but you're talented, it's not enough, you need to work hard, you need to train, to get to the level you imagined."
"Even you...... Can't it either? Wesley asked in surprise, in his opinion, Carlos's strength was already very strong.
"I can't, or I wouldn't be where I am." Carlos shook his head decisively.
If he really could get to that point, how could he be afraid to meet with Wesley for his safety?
"That'...... What about Mr. Zhou? Wesley asked.
"He ......"
Carlos recalled the previous scene when Zhou Yi dodged his bullet from a distance of a few meters, and snatched the gun in his hand at a speed that he couldn't see even when he opened the assassin's bloodline, and moved behind him......
"He's one of the few."
……
Late at night.
Interior of a villa.
"Poof!" "Bang!"
A slight whisper, and an undisguised gunshot, shattered the silence.
"Who are you? Why are you holding me back? ”
"Firefox" Fox was on guard, and asked the man in front of him who shot down his own bullet and stopped his murderous action.
"I'm sorry, but, Miss Firefox, this gentleman, is my target."
Zhou Yi smiled, glanced at the man who woke up from his sleep and was trembling, and then punched him unconscious to prevent trouble.
"You're not an assassin," Fawkes said with a frown, "I haven't seen you. ”
"Assassins?" Zhou Yi shook the pistol in his hand, signaled the two of them not to move for the time being, and then sat down on the chair next to him, "Are you talking about the so-called, the organization that kills one person and saves a thousand people, the assassins of the Assassin Brotherhood?" Why do you think so? ”
Carlos's previous list for Zhou Yi not only contained a list of targets for assassination operations that had been carried out by the assassins recently, but also some of them were about to be carried out.
And Zhou Yi found out that Fox was about to assassinate the target on this list, so he came here directly and intercepted Fox at the same time.
"Only with the strongest assassin bloodline can do that," Fawkes didn't let go of the pistol, she knew what Zhou Yi had just done meant, "You're not an assassin, so, who are you?" ”
"Me? It's just a killer," Zhou Yi said, "The person you killed this time is exactly what I'm targeting......
"Killer?" Fawkes smiled contemptuously.
"You seem to look down on killers," Zhou Yi smiled and asked, "Why, Miss Fox, aren't you just like me?" ”
"Assassins are not the same as killers, you are in it for money, and I am in it for faith, for saving the world."
Fox said disdainfully: "The president of this pharmaceutical company monopolized the price of drugs and inflated the price of drugs to the point that an ordinary person could not afford them at all, so the loom of fate guided me, and I killed him to do a good deed." ”
"And what did you come to kill him for, for his bounty?" Fawkes asked rhetorically, "Take his head and go, killer, for the sake of your poor bounty, I just need him to die, and that's enough." ”
With that, Fawkes slowly stepped back, ready to leave.
"I have to say, Miss Fawkes, I also have deep respect for your faith and persistence."
Zhou Yi took out some information from the lining of his clothes, "However, sometimes, the wrong goal of action will make you do the wrong thing. ”
"What do you mean?" Fox asked, "My goal is wrong?" Is he innocent? That's impossible! ”
"Since you're so sure, then, I have some information here, maybe you can take a look." Zhou Yi raised the document in his hand.
"You didn't have a problem with his investigation, but you only saw the first layer, Miss Fawkes, and maybe you should have looked at the layers below, what kind of truth is being covered!"
