Chapter Seventy-Two: The Road
Looking at Ezio, who was calmly closing his eyes for Francisco, Su Bai nodded secretly, but he was full of emotion in his heart.
Compared to the hairy boy who grabbed Vieri's corpse and roared angrily two years ago, Ezio has grown a lot and changed a lot.
He was fading his youth and headed for the path of the Great Assassin.
Ezio slowly stood up, looked at Su Bai and said, "Francisco is dead, but his comrades are still bewitching the people in the city. We've got to get rid of them. ”
"Let's go." Su Bai said.
As soon as the words came out, the world in front of him suddenly froze.
White light filled the heavens and the earth, and the whole city began to crumble.
A scene appeared in front of Su Bai and Mu Na.
On the banks of the Arno River, Ezio and Lorenzo stood side by side and had a conversation.
Eventually, Lorenzo handed a secret letter to Ezio.
As the screen turns, Ezio finds Leonardo da Vinci with the secret letter and asks him to transform his Hidden Blade into a poisoned sword according to the record on the secret letter.
Ezio returned to Montegligioni's Auditore estate and had a conversation with his uncle Mario.
Then, he came to San Mianano.
"I knew you were coming." Bernardo Baroncelli, dressed in red, lay on the ground, looking at Ezio crouching beside him, black blood gushing out of his mouth.
"Where's Jacob?" Ezio stared at him calmly.
"Can't you use your tricks against him on me?" Bernardo scoffed.
Ezio looked him in the eye and said word by word, "You still have time to regain your conscience and give yourself a chance to confess before God." ”
Bernardo was silent for a moment, then said in a weak voice: "We meet at the church for a meeting......"
After the last sentence, he tilted his head, and there was no brilliance in his eyes.
"It's a shame that things have come to this end." Ezio gently closed his eyes for him, "Requiescat in pace." ”
The picture disintegrates like a mirror into countless fragments, then reassembles again.
Ezio appeared at the top of Sar Uchita.
Another Templar, Antonio Maffei, fell under his Hidden Blade.
"May your soul and body finally be at peace." Ezio whispered, "Requiescat in pace." ”
The scene then shifts to Ezio with a team of mercenaries into the manor where Archbishop Francesco Salviati is hiding.
Retracting his Hidden Blade, he gently lowered the body of the deceased: "Faith should bring comfort, quiescat in pace." ”
In the monastery, the cold Hidden Blade pierced the chest of the black-robed monk.
"Put aside your fears." The young Assassin laid down the corpse in his arms, "Requiescat in pace." ”
Another Templar involved in the murder of the Auditore family and the plot to overthrow the Medici family, Stefano da Bagnone, died under his Hidden Blade.
Now, only the last man remains.
Ezio looked into the distance, his gaze like iron: "Jacopo de Pazzi! ”
Scold!
The Hidden Blade was violently withdrawn, and the white-robed figure disappeared in place.
……
All scenes are reduced to nothingness.
The vast white light dissipated, and Su Bai and Muna appeared in an ancient Roman ruins.
"They're there!" Ezio's voice rang out beside him.
Su Bai looked towards the ruins and saw Jacob explaining something to the hooded man.
"There are too many guards, and we have to wait for a better opportunity." Ezio said, then teasing, "Of course, if you want to force your way in, I'll applaud you." ”
"These guards aren't the Patch family shit." Su Bai's gaze swept over the ruins.
Elite guards in full armor were everywhere, and many of them were heavily armoured and armed with tomahawks.
He estimated it in his mind. If you force yourself in, you will definitely be able to destroy all the soldiers, but it will definitely not be easy. Maybe I'll have to get a little hurt.
Of course he wouldn't do such a thing. Anyway, according to the original plot, there is no need to solve Rodrigo now.
At this time, the situation in the field changed again.
Rodrigo suddenly pulled out a short knife and stabbed Jacob in the chest.
Jacob fell to the ground and pleaded, but he remained unmoved, drew his sword from his waist and plunged it into his neck.
Retracting his sword and inserting it into the scabbard, he suddenly turned around and said loudly in the direction where Su Bai and the three were hiding, "I'm so sorry, I won your booty, assassin." ”
Ezio was startled, and footsteps sounded around him, and several soldiers surrounded them.
"Do you really think I didn't expect you to be following? Don't you know it's all in my plan? We followed up on this much earlier than you. Rodrigo said disdainfully.
He glanced at the guards around him and said lightly, "Kill them." ”
Then he turned and walked out of the ruins.
The surrounding guards followed him away, leaving behind only a dozen soldiers and Jacob, who was struggling to survive on the ground.
"Where did that guy get the confidence that he could destroy us with such a few people?" Su Bai raised his eyebrows and said.
"Maybe it's because he's never seen us do it with his own eyes." Ezio said, his arms down, his Hidden Blade out, and he looked around at the soldiers around him, "I know you're just doing what you're told. If you let me go, I can spare you from dying. ”
Hearing this, the soldiers burst into laughter.
A slightly stocky soldier laughed and said, "Ha! Look at what this guy says......"
The words did not speak, but turned into a scream.
Su Bai lowered his left arm and drew the saber at his waist: "No need to talk nonsense, Ezio." Send them to God. ”
"Kill them!"
The surrounding guards rushed forward with their weapons in hand.
The battle was soon over.
Seeing the last guard fall, Su Bai returned his sword to the sheath, glanced at Jacob, who was still breathing, and was amazed at the tenacity of his vitality, and then said to Ezio: "Go, give him a good time." ”
Ezio walked over to Jacob, staring silently at his face, distorted by pain.
A moment later, he crouched down and stabbed his Hidden Blade into Jacob's throat.
"Leave all burdens and fears behind and set sail, my friend." Ezio chanted softly, "Requiescat in pace." ”
"Congratulations, Ezio." Su Bai walked up behind him, "All the members of the Patch family have been punished as they deserve, and you have completed your revenge for your father and brother. ”
"No!" Ezio stood up, "Not all sinners have been convicted, the culprit continues his plot. ”
He turned his head to look at Su Bai, his eyes full of determination: "As long as the Templars continue their plot, my fight will never stop." Because, I'm an assassin! ”
