Lu Xiao's panel can be said to be very shabby, the attributes are not much higher than the standard of normal adult males, the quality of the props held is also ordinary, and the active skills are even more wordless.

However, this is unavoidable, after all, in the Assassin's Creed worldview, there are not many supernatural elements in the world, except for the Eden artifacts with different functions, and the powerful sixth sense inherited from the Isu people by some people.

Many legendary Assassin Mentors fought all their lives, and before they retired, they only relied on their years of combat experience to defeat their enemies, and did not gain any unparalleled power to destroy the city.

In a word.

The supernatural powers of the world of Assassin's Creed all come from the Pieces of Eden scattered around the world, except for these Eden artifacts and some Isu who have not yet completely died, this world is not much different from the earth where Lu Xiao lives.

Actually, it's not surprising when you think about it. ’

When following Giovanni on the roof, Lu Xiao smiled self-deprecatingly.

It's just a world for novices to get started, and if it's too difficult, how can I, an ordinary person, complete the world task. ’

While the humans of the world of Assassin's Creed don't have much of their own anomalous abilities worthy of praise, most of the ancient artifacts left behind by the Isu contained great powers.

For example, the Shroud of Eden, which Mario once came close to, is said to be able to heal the injuries of the person who covered the Shroud, even if it was severe.

But judging by what happened to Mario and the others, perhaps this healing ability will only be manifested in humans with Isu blood without side effects.

The Shroud is now secretly stored somewhere in Florence, the exact address of which is not known for the time being, and it may take Lu Xiao to gain more trust from the members of the Brotherhood.

Other Pieces of Eden documented in Assassin Brotherhood sources include the Golden Apple, which Altaïr kept for a long time, the Sword of Eden, which briefly resurrects the dead, and the Crystal Skull, which only exists in legends.

In addition to these Pieces of Eden, which have been documented by the Brotherhood, Lu Xiao also knows of several artifacts that are difficult to obtain today, including the Spear of Leonidas and the Sword of Damocles, which were used by the demigods Kassandra and Alexios.

There's even the Staff of Hermes, which Kassandra holds in her hand to this day.

Recalling the sword of Damocles, Lu Xiao's thinking began to diverge.

The holy sword used by Alexios is one of the holy swords unified by the Isu Hephaestus, and after Alexios was killed, the holy sword naturally fell into the hands of Kassandra, and now it should be buried deep in the underwater city of Atlantis with Kassandra.

The point is not here, but the holy sword built by Hephaestus...... One.

In addition to the Sword of Damocles, which was recovered by Kassandra, the Sword of Eden has also appeared many times throughout history.

According to the Brotherhood, the first non-Isu wielder of the sword was Perseus, who is said to have used it to kill the gorgon Medusa.

…… Of course, according to the content of the Odyssey, the legend has a certain degree of error, and Medusa died at the hands of the demigod Kassandra in the end.

The last time the sacred sword was recorded was around the 5th century AD, when it fell into the hands of Attila, the king of the Huns, and with the help of the holy sword, Attila crossed the Eurasian continent, and this holy sword was known as the sword of the god of war at the time.

The next wielder of the sword after Attila was also famous, he was Arthur Pendragon, known as the King of Knights, popularly known as King Arthur, and the sword was given the new name Sword of Stone.

After King Arthur, the holy sword circulated in the hands of Sigmund, Genghis Khan and others.

The last recorded wielder of the sword was Joan of Arc, France's most recognizable hero during the Hundred Years' War.

According to historical accounts, Joan of Arc was betrayed and burned alive at the stake by the British army for heretical crimes.

However, the Brotherhood's record differs from the canonical history, as Joan of Arc was burned to death as a substitute for the Assassins.

The real Joan of Arc was secretly rescued by the Assassins who had been assisting her long before the execution, and it was one of her female protégés, Fleur, who volunteered to be burned in Joan of Arc's place.

The Assassins deliberately beat Fleur beyond recognition, and the Templars disguised as Britons did not notice that the real Joan of Arc had been dropped.

In addition to its powerful power, the Sword of Eden has the potential to increase the wielder's physical strength and leadership skills.

The body of the Holy Sword is in the shape of a golden long sword, and it is also equipped with a control center named the Sacred Heart, and only by holding the Sacred Heart can the Holy Sword's abilities be maximized.

When Fleur was burned in place of Jeanne d'Arc, the Assassins hung the Sacred Heart that Joan of Arc had been wearing around her neck in order to disguise her more similarly.

After Fleur was burned to death, the Sacred Heart was not damaged in the fire, and the executioners, seeing that Joan of Arc's "heart" had not been burned to ashes, thought that they had mistakenly executed a real saint, and threw the Sacred Heart into the Seine with Joan of Arc's ashes in horror.

The Templars had undoubtedly taken the Sword itself, but without the Sacred Heart, it was impossible for them to wield all the power of the Sword.

If nothing else, the Sacred Heart would still be buried at the bottom of the Seine, where Fleur's ashes were scattered, perhaps...... Can I find a way to figure it out? ’

Lu Xiao's thinking spread far away, and his body still subconsciously followed Giovanni until Giovanni reminded him to stop.

"Here we are."

Giovanni, dressed in a white stabbing service, straightened his hood and half-squatted in a rooftop garden to wave to Lu Xiao.

Lu Xiao, who came back to his senses, looked at the solemn cathedral in front of him with some surprise: "This is ......"

"Church of Our Lady of the Hundred Flowers."

Giovanni whispered, "The Florentine Lord Lorenzo Medici will be attending Mass in the church today, and a large number of guards will be following him, and the Templars intend to take this opportunity to secretly transport a piece of Altaïr's Codex they recently acquired out of the city." ”

"Look."

Giovanni pointed to the corner of the Church of Santa Maria del Fiore, where several people in brown hooded friars had gathered sneakily in contrast to the bustling main entrance.

One of the monks handed a delicate small box to the "monk" on the opposite side, who was obviously overweight, and the tall monk who took the box turned around and walked away without any nonsense.

"Keep up, we're targeting him."

Giovanni slowed his progress and stole from the roof to follow the departing monks from the rooftops with a light and silent foot.

"Lu, have you noticed?"

Giovanni abruptly asked, "How did I quickly locate the Templars?" ”

Lu Xiao nodded and said a soft "um", and looked up to look around the ground: "Is it the news delivered by those courtesans around the church, and they are also members of the brotherhood?" ”

When he came to the vicinity of the Church of the Hundred Flowers of Our Lady, Lu Xiao noticed that the number of scantily clad courtesans around this church was a little abnormal.

Giovanni said appreciatively, "Yes, you are very observant. ”

"Not only these courtesans, but also many of the thieves and mercenaries in this city are under the jurisdiction of the Brotherhood, and if you are in trouble in Florence in the future, you can show them the Assassin insignia, and these people will help you in any way they can."

The disguised Templars below walked quickly, squeezing through the crowds that had gathered towards the Church of Santa Maria del Fiore and hurried towards the east gate of Florence.

"They must not be allowed to rendezvous with the inner Ying at the gate of the city, and be ready to move."

Giovanni flicked his Hidden Blade to check the sensitivity of the trigger mechanism, and when he was ready, he whistled to signal several groups of nearby Assassins.

From the heights, Lu Xiao could clearly see several groups of people suddenly rushing out of the crowd, surrounding them from all directions, completely blocking the route of the Templars' advance and escape.

"It's time to close the net."

Giovanni patted Lu Xiao on the shoulder: "You will stay in a high place and support us with bows and arrows, give full play to your strengths, and shoot the fish that try to break through the encirclement." ”

"Pay attention to my action pattern, I may not have the opportunity to take you to participate in the operation in the future, and strive to learn more experience in this actual battle."

Lu Xiao took off the transformed short bow on his back, nodded solemnly, and said, "I guarantee that none of the Templars can escape, Mr. Giovanni, please also pay attention to your safety." ”
