Chapter 59: Explanation

Hearing Su Bai's words, Mario suddenly shook his head with a smile and said, "You are more optimistic about my nephew than me." But now he doesn't have the slightest appearance of a great assassin. ”

"He just needs time to grow." Su Bai said, "At the same time, we also need our help. ”

Mario was noncommittal, and added, "Didn't you tell him about the Brotherhood and the Templars?" ”

Su Bai replied: "This kind of thing, I think it's better for you to tell him personally." ”

Mario nodded slowly.

Su Bai said: "But I think you have to be mentally prepared. Ezio fled to Spain with his mother and sister and had no intention of joining the war. I tried him, but he replied that it had nothing to do with him. ”

"How could it have nothing to do with him!" Mario immediately yelled, "He has the blood of the Auditore family in his veins!" He was a born assassin! ”

"That's what I think you should say to him." Su Bai spread his hands, "But he probably won't listen." ”

"Whether he wants it or not, everything is already predestined." Mario said with a frown.

"I think you'd better think about what to say." Su Bai reminded, "Being too tough will have the opposite effect." ”

"I know." Mario said.

But looking at the way he looked, he obviously didn't listen.

Su Bai didn't say anything more.

After the conversation, the two left the study.

Mario apparently did not trust them very much, and did not speak of the situation of the struggle between the Assassin Brotherhood and the Templars in the region.

Su Bai is also happy to be idle, and he will not take the initiative to mention it.

Anyway, his mission is only to teach Ezio, and he doesn't want to care about the others, so let them fight themselves.

In the evening, after dinner, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

Su Bai and Mu Na were arranged in the same room, after all, he introduced the two as husband and wife.

However, it is not the first time that they have lived in the same room, and both of them seem extremely natural.

Of course, everything is limited to sleeping in a hug. Su Bai hadn't thought about anything further for the time being. Everything goes with the flow.

After a night's rest, Mario summoned Ezio to the open space in front of the villa and began explaining the Brotherhood's relationship with the Templars.

"You should already know, Ezio. Your father was an Assassin. Mario said with a solemn look on his face.

"Assassins and Templars. These statements are full of mystery, like mysterious words written on an old piece of parchment, right? Ezio said disapprehantly.

Seeing his carelessness, Mario said dissatisfiedly, "These are real things, Ezio! And closely related to you and me! ”

"Okay, okay." Ezio hurriedly said, "I see, you can continue." ”

Mario continued, "You have your father's sword in your hand, and I think you must have the secret letter he kept. ”

"Secret letter?" Ezio asked, confused.

"Yes." Mario nodded, "It is a guide to the inner workings of our organization, to its origins, purpose, and techniques. It can also be said to be our credo. Your father thinks there is a great secret hidden in the secret letter, something that can change the world. Maybe that's why they killed him......"

"Well, it sounds like it's in the plot." Ezio shrugged his shoulders and asked, "What about the Templars?" And what about them? ”

"The Templars were one of several knightly organizations formed during the Crusades." Mario replied, "According to the annals, they were disbanded in France two hundred years ago. However, this is not the case, they just go underground and continue their evil deeds. ”

Ezio immediately asked, "What is the matter?" ”

Mario replied, "The Templars seek to rule the world, and we, the Brotherhood of Assassins, have sworn to fight them. ”

"Domination of the whole world? It sounds like a joke. Ezio spread his hands, "How can they achieve something that even the gods have not done?" ”

"Actually......" Su Bai, who had not spoken, finally spoke, "It's not impossible. ”

Both turned their heads to look at him.

Su Bai said: "On the way here from my country, I heard some gossip. ”

"Grapevine?" Ezio's voice rose sharply.

"Boy, the truth of a lot of things is hidden in these gossip." Su Bai glanced at him and said in a lesson tone.

"What have you heard?" Mario asked.

Su Bai said, "I heard that the Templars were looking for an artifact, a weapon that could help them rule the world. It is said that the weapon came from a god in ancient times. ”

"Artifact?" Ezio spoke out again.

"Apple of Eden." Su Bai said the name.

"You mean the one in the Bible?" Ezio said uncertainly, "The forbidden fruit that drove Adam and Eve out of the Garden of Eden?" Is the forbidden fruit an apple? ”

"I don't know if the forbidden fruit is an apple or not." "All I know is that if the Templars are targeting it, then this thing must be important. ”

"That's right." Mario immediately said, "I'll look into the matter." If the Templars are really looking for what you call the Apple of Eden, then we're going to stop them! ”

Ezio looked at Mario and said, "Are those secret letters you are talking about the location of the Apple of Eden?" ”

"Possibly." Mario nodded.

"But the secret letter my father left me recorded the improved design of this Hidden Blade." Ezio said, "I asked Leonardo da Vinci to decipher the information in the secret letter, and there is no other important information in it, and there are no secrets. ”

"There is more than one secret letter." Mario speculated, "Maybe we'll have to collect all the secret letters to be able to crack the key information inside." ”

Then, he said, "Don't worry about this yet. Ezio, you already know everything, so tell me if you are ready to take on the role of Assassin and join us in the fight against the Templars. ”

"Nope." Unsurprisingly, Ezio rejected him, "I just want to escape to a safe place with my mother and sister, and the Assassins' fight with the Templars has nothing to do with me. ”

"Ezio!" Mario shouted.

"Don't talk about that, uncle." Ezio turned away, "I'm not going to change my mind. ”

"You ......," Mario pointed at him angrily.

"Alright, let's calm down a bit." Su Bai began to act as a peacemaker, reassuring the two, "Let's put this topic down first." ”
