Chapter 61: Night Attack
"Ezio? How did you end up here? Seeing Ezio, Mario's face was suddenly full of surprise, and he subconsciously glanced at Su Bai.
Su Bai smiled back.
Ezio didn't notice the eye contact between the two, and said with a determined expression, "I want to take responsibility, Vieri is the only reason why you are bothered so much." ”
Mario laughed, "Vieri bothered us because he was a Templar and we were Assassins. ”
"I want to help anyway." Ezio said, touching his chest.
"Are you serious, Ezio?" Mario asked.
"That's right, very serious." Ezio nodded.
"Okay, listen carefully." "First of all, we have to try to get into the city. However, Vieri seemed to have guessed that we were coming, and had locked the gate and put his men on guard. ”
Ezio immediately asked, "So what should we do?" ”
Mario smiled, "Luckily, the city is bigger than he thought. The southern wall was a little damaged, and when it got dark, we fought from there. Do you understand? ”
"Of course."
"Then sit down and rest for a while, nephew." Mario said to Ezio, then looked at Su Bai, "I want to talk to you, Mr. Su." ”
"No problem." Su Bai said immediately.
The two walked to the side.
"How did you convince him?" Mario looked at Su Bai and asked, "He was so determined to leave before. ”
"Actually, I didn't do anything, I just told him you brought someone here." Su Bai spread his hands, "I said that Ezio will be aware of his responsibility and bravely take on everything. He just needs time to grow. ”
Mario was silent for a moment and nodded, "Maybe you're right." You know my nephew better than I do. ”
Su Bai smiled slightly and didn't say anything.
Mario added, "The battle will be dangerous for a while, and I hope you will take care of Ezio." He was the hope of the Auditore family's revival, and he couldn't just die here. ”
"Of course, I will." Su Bai said, "But I will only help him at the most critical time." Ezio had to go through some things and dangers alone in order to grow faster. ”
"I understand that, too." Mario sighed, "The struggle between the Assassins and the Templars is fraught with mortal danger everywhere. I just want to be able to grow up as safely as possible before Ezio has to face everything alone. ”
"Don't worry, Mr. Mario." Su Bai stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, "Trust Ezio, he will surprise us all." ”
……
Night falls.
Mario led the mercenaries towards the castle of San Gimignano.
Soon, they came to the south side of the city wall.
A section of the wall here is in tatters, and its defensive effectiveness has been greatly weakened.
"All right, Ezio. Here's the plan. Mario began to assign tasks to Ezio, "I'll take someone to lure the guards away." Once we start fighting them, you climb the wall and try to open the gate. ”
"No problem." Ezio said with some scramble, "I'm always on call. ”
"Then let's get started." Mario patted Ezio on the shoulder, "Be careful, my nephew. Your mentor will act with you, but I hope you don't always rely on him. ”
Ezio looked at Su Bai, nodded and said, "I understand." ”
Mario had a look of relief on his face, and then turned in the direction of the city gate: "Rush! ”
Then he rushed towards the city gate with his mercenaries.
"Shall we leave now?" Ezio looked at Su Bai and asked.
"Ezio, don't forget your uncle's words." Su Bai said with a smile, "It's up to you to decide everything in this operation, I will only follow behind you and save your life when you are about to finish playing." ”
"Uh......" Ezio shrugged, "Well, I hope you'll never have the time to make a move." ”
"I hope so."
"That's right." Ezio asked, confused, "Why didn't you see Miss Muna?" ”
"She's already sneaked into the city ahead of time." Su Bai said lightly, "We have to make sure that we don't let the key target escape, otherwise it won't be in vain." ”
Ezio originally wanted to ask her if she would be in danger, but seeing Su Bai's calm appearance, and thinking of the other party's elusive ability when he assassinated Uberto in the monastery before, he swallowed back his words.
"Then let's go inside."
He said, and rushed towards the ruined wall.
Soon, the two climbed the city wall one after another.
"There are guards on the roof." Ezio crouched on the wall and whispered, "We have to find a way to deal with them." ”
"Take it." Su Bai took the bow and arrow from his back and handed it to Ezio.
Ezio looked at him and opened his mouth, "You're so well prepared. ”
"That's the experience." Su Bai smiled and said, "Boy, you still have a lot to learn." ”
Ezio didn't say anything, took his bow and arrows, and drew it at the nearest archer standing on the roof of the room.
Shout!
There was a soft thud, and the guard clutched his throat and fell.
Ezio aimed at one of the guards farther away, releasing the bowstring.
With the soft sound of arrows, the guards fell.
Ezio continued to release the cold arrow.
At this time, it seemed that some guards in the nearby castle tower heard the movement and walked towards this side.
Su Bai glanced at Ezio quietly, and the Hidden Arrow in his left hand was ready to be fired.
The footsteps were getting closer, and the figure of the guard appeared in sight.
"What......"
He was about to shout when Ezio jerked and let go of the bowstring in his hand.
Burst!
The arrow pierced the guard's throat and shot him dead.
"Well done." Su Bai complimented, "I thought you didn't notice it." ”
"I'm not deaf." Ezio rolled his eyes, then said, "I've dealt with the nearby archers, let's go open the gates......"
Before he finished speaking, Su Bai suddenly raised his left hand towards him.
"Keep your head down!"
Ezio subconsciously lowered his head as he said.
Shout!
An arrow flew over his head, grazing Su Bai's face.
At the same time, a black shadow under Su Bai's left arm also swept out like a shadow.
Ezio subconsciously looked back, only to see a guard tumbling down from the roof.
"Boy, you're still a little tender." Su Bai lowered his arm and said lightly.
Ezio was speechless.
"Alright, now we can go."
Su Bai stood up and walked in the direction of the city gate.
As they got closer, there was a sound of fighting.
"Give me the bow and arrows. Then you go and open the gates, and I'll keep an eye on you. Su Bai said to Ezio.
Ezio nodded, returned the bow and arrows to Su Bai, and ran towards the city gate.
