Renaissance Greece has long since lost its glory to the Greek period, and Greece is now a territory under the name of the Ottoman Empire.

The powerful country straddling three continents of Europe, Asia and Africa is now in its prime, and the Ottoman Empire's strong desire for territorial expansion has made its neighbors afraid to let up on this powerful green country.

The situation between countries has nothing to do with Lu Xiao, and who Greece belongs to has little to do with the purpose of his trip.

However, as Ezio reminded, there were many pirates in the Aegean Sea in this era, and Lu Xiao was attacked by pirates on the way to Thera Island with a small merchant ship.

Fortunately, the strength of this pirate group is relatively weak, there is only one pirate ship converted from a merchant ship, and the long-range firepower is seriously insufficient, and it relies more on broadside combat to cause damage and deterrence to merchant sailors.

Lu Xiao originally planned to keep a low profile and arrive on Thira Island to search, but this group of arrogant pirates seemed to be robbing the property and also planning to kill people and rob ships to strengthen themselves.

was threatened, and Lu Xiao couldn't care less about continuing to keep a low profile.

A shipload of more than a dozen battle pirates didn't expect that someone on this small merchant ship would dare to resist, Lu Xiao took advantage of the fact that a pirate came to him with a step that his six relatives did not recognize and was about to plunder, and stabbed his Hidden Blade into his throat from the front.

"Ho! Ho! ”

The pirate with the pierced trachea could not scream, clutched his neck in pain, and fell to the ground with his eyes wide open.

"Ahh

The other passengers and crew members around them obviously would not cooperate with Lu Xiao's plan to act covertly, and when they saw the pirate's neck spurting blood and falling, they screamed in panic, thus attracting the attention of other pirates.

"What the hell are you doing! Want to die...... Belch! ”

The island that rushed over with a scimitar was shot by Lu Xiao at the front door, and before the other pirates could react, Lu Xiao aimed the loaded Hidden Gun at the strongest pirate leader.

"Bang!"

After the crisp sound of gunshots, there was a small hole in the heart of the unknown pirate leader, and he looked down at his chest in disbelief, and fell to his knees with his whole body, and soon lost his breath of life.

The thief captures the king first, and without the restraint and command of the leader, the pirates who have blown up the pot fall into a panic and fight separately.

The pirates were clearly not very mixed in the Aegean Sea, they were shirtless, and most of them carried inferior cutlass of the Ottoman standard.

Some of the more sturdy pirates plucked up their courage and rushed towards Lu Xiao with a shout, while others who were timid or had other ideas in their hearts took the opportunity to return to the pirate ship and prepare to decouple from the small merchant ship.

Relying on his higher agility, he put his right hand on the side of the arm of the pirate who was swinging his weapon first, and Lu Xiao drew his arm to slash at his companion who was about to attack in concert, while his left Hidden Blade stabbed into the man's waist.

"Bell!"

The two scimitars collided together, and the movements of the two pirates came to a halt for a moment at the same time under the force of interaction.

Letting go of the pirate whose strength was rapidly draining, Lu Xiao threw out the blade of his boot and raised his leg to slash through the neck of the pirate who was temporarily unable to move, and the two people who rushed the fastest fell to the ground almost at the same time.

At this time, the three pirates behind had just left their robbery target, raising their scimitars in their hands and preparing to rush over.

Seeing Lu Xiao kill the two companions effortlessly, the little pirate group's nature of bullying the weak and fearing the hard was exposed, and the three of them stopped their steps at the same time, turned their heads and looked at each other.

"Huh~"

When Lu Xiao shook off the blood on his Hidden Blade and approached the three of them, the three pirates reached a consensus and jumped out from the side of the ship without hesitation.

"Wow~"

The three pirates who entered the water swam to the pirate ship that had not yet sailed away with their skillful water nature, and boarded the ship smoothly with the help of their companions who had evacuated in advance, and looked at the killing god standing on the deck of the small merchant ship with palpitations.

There were only a dozen combatants on this pirate ship, and Lu Xiao killed five of them in just a dozen seconds, one of whom was still the leader of the pirate group.

The pirates have also seen a lot of blood on their hands, and Lu Xiao's efficient killing methods still make them feel chills in their hearts, following the human instinct to seek profit and avoid evil, the pirates immediately chose to escape.

Habitually searching for clues on the five corpses, Lu Xiao kicked them all into the sea one by one.

"Wow!"

Seeing Lu Xiao turn his gaze to himself, the captain of the small merchant ship had his hair standing on end, and subconsciously hid behind the mast, trembling all over his body.

Crying and laughing, he stepped forward and patted the captain on the shoulder: "Don't worry, I'm not a murderer, I won't do anything to you." ”

"Let's keep going, this group of pirates is very weak, if you stay in the middle of the sea for too long, you may encounter a large pirate gang."

Cautiously confirming that Lu Xiao had no ill will towards the ship, and Lu Xiao's threat was also very reasonable, the captain trembled for a while, and finally mustered up the courage to re-command the ship to sail.

'Hey~ Did it really become like this? ’

Noticing that the crew of the other passengers consciously distanced themselves from him, Lu Xiao sighed secretly, which was also one of the reasons why he didn't want to make a move until he had to.

'Leave as soon as the ship docks, for it will be troubled if any of the cheap-mouthed passengers report it to the consuls of the surrounding islands.' ’

Thira, or Santoniri, is a barren and sparsely populated volcanic island with no large settlements, only a small fishing village that bears the island's name.

After the supply and unloading in the village of Santorini, the small merchant ship did not make any stops and hurried further north to the island of Naxos.

Under the curious gaze of the villagers of the fishing village, Lu Xiao put on his hood and left the village, stepping on the sulfur-covered island ground to move deeper.

Assassin's Creed Odyssey took place during the Peloponnesian War in Greece, around 430 BC, nearly 2,000 years after the European Renaissance.

Over the past 2,000 years, the volcanoes on the island of Thera have erupted many times, and the topography of the island has changed greatly compared to the ancient Greek period.

Lu Xiao searched the island for several days but failed to find the entrance to the suspected Atlantis ruins.

Sitting on the edge of the beach and thinking for a while, Lu Xiao gritted his teeth and cut his arm with his Hidden Blade, and when the blood began to flow out, he took out the Shroud of Eden and covered his hand.

As the Shroud of Eden's golden light began to exert its healing effect, Consus, whose spirit was lodged in the Shroud, also made contact with Lu Xiao again.

"It's a pleasure to talk to you again, Lu Xiao, this time you want to know...... Well? ”

Before the opening greeting was finished, Consus suddenly made a puzzled voice: "I feel the resonance fluctuation of the Pieces of Eden, Lu Xiao, where are you now?" ”

The wound on Lu Xiao's arm has stopped bleeding, and the scar is rapidly healing under the miraculous effect of the Shroud of Eden.

Lu Xiao took off the shroud and replied: "The island of Thera in ancient Greece is now called Santorini, and it is said that Atlantis, the ruins of the Isu city, is near this island. ”

"Atlantis......"

Consus's tone was a little nostalgic: "I'm not sure what the name of the island you said and where the specific location is, but ...... It doesn't seem like it's impossible. ”

"I felt a familiar aura of energy on this island, and this energy allowed me to stay alive for a longer period of time."

"I can use the resonance between the pieces of Eden to show you the way, just as I guided Joan of Arc to find the Sword of Eden, and it is up to you to explore and confirm whether the resonance fluctuations really come from Atlantis."
