Chapter 1: Giovanni
Through the Veil of Twilight, no, through the Veil of the Void Gate, Josh is once again in a new world.
As always, Josh still takes Galen and two dragons, the same world that Josh is more familiar with.
The difference is that this time Natasha came along, and this time Josh plans to stay in this world for a while longer to complete what he has to do.
Natasha came with Josh of her own free will, and the little girl stopped following after completing a wave of bandits with the Hogwoods students.
Because this is not helpful to her at all, and where she is, many young wizards will find a way for her to complete the killing.
This made Natasha very dissatisfied, do you treat me as a butcher?
Professor Snape also found out about this, so he decided that Natasha didn't need this experience at all, so he sent her back, and Josh happened to meet her in the territory.
I chatted with her a little and told her that she was going to a new world, and that she was going to find a qualified teacher for her, so she didn't hesitate to take the initiative to say that she wanted to go too!
Josh had nothing to object to this, and directly agreed to her.
Medieval Italy was actually about the same as Josh's territory, that is, dirty and messy. However, this world Josh is very unexpected, because this world is closer to the setting of the game, and Josh does not realize how dirty it is on the streets of Florence.
On the contrary, it is similar to the game, and the street is very lively.
There were all sorts of pedestrians, but they all seemed to be heading towards a plaza, which made Josh a little amused as they thought they might have encountered some kind of grand revelry.
Their portal was located at the top of a church, so their sudden appearance didn't attract anyone's attention. Of course, even if it happened, Josh dealt with it easily - directly using magic to make them forget about it.
The group of three walked straight down from the church, and of course their clothing problems had already been solved.
After all, with the experience of crossing over many times, they wouldn't have worn out of place after knowing where they were going, just like Josh was wearing a pure black wizard's robe.
This kind of clothing is not conspicuous in this era, and there may be nothing noteworthy except for the fact that the material is better.
As for Galen, he directly changed into his own armor, which had been with him for many years, and he didn't plan to change it, and Natasha also tried to wear the medieval swordsman's robes.
In short, the group looked like nobles came out to play, although they were watched by many civilians because of their beautiful faces, but no one did not bother them with long eyes.
They even choose to give way because they are going in the same direction as themselves, which makes Josh feel as if he is on the Muya continent.
In feudal society, the rights of the nobility were still very large.
Especially when they dressed like Josh and looked like a big nobleman at a glance, no one would do anything to provoke them. Although they seem to be more approachable, especially Josh, class is more intimidating than temperament.
"Looks like something good happened to us as soon as we got here."
Josh didn't care about the attitude of these civilians, and even understood them a little, comparing himself to a small person in his previous life.
Of course, another point is that Josh has long been used to it, and I remember that when I first went to inspect the territory with Frank, the civilians in my territory saw me, but it was more exaggerated than when these people saw him now.
"Probably, maybe it's some kind of carnival. By the way, Josh, it's much cleaner than inside your territory, and it's worth learning from. ”
Galen also smiled, and he didn't pay attention to the attitude of the civilians.
He's been an aristocrat since he was a kid, and he's seen more scenes than Josh. But he'd rather go to see the carnival or something, but he hadn't seen this kind of event in a long time, and maybe there would be a show he liked.
"Can you stop talking about this, the devil knows what the background of this world is, don't you know what the real European Middle Ages is like?"
"I know, but it's cleaner than yours. Man, good things have to be learned, you know? ”
"Of course I know, isn't the Red Queen already controlling those Terminators?"
Indeed, Josh couldn't stand the dirty mess of his territory for a long time.
So he gave the Red Queen an order, that is, to control the Terminator to clean up properly while resting. While the results aren't obvious yet, it's already starting to work, and Josh believes it's only a matter of time.
The two chatted all the way, and Natasha looked around curiously.
This is her first trip with Josh, and she is very curious about this romantic medieval style, almost like in a fairy tale, and of course Natasha, as a Russian, of course she knows what the real European Middle Ages is like.
However, the feeling given to her here is still quite good, although the feeling of wearing this dress is still average, not so comfortable.
But these are small things that don't affect her interest, and she doesn't forget her mission to gather intelligence.
Of course, the world doesn't need Natasha to do this. But Josh didn't tell her this, just to see what she was capable of.
It didn't take long for the three of them to come to the square, where there were so many people, and Josh and the others were slowly squeezing through by relying on Galen.
But when they got to the front, Josh Galen and Natasha both frowned. For they saw three men with thick ropes around their necks, and anyone who was not a fool could see that this was a hanging.
All three of them hated such public executions, and Galen might have been a little better, as there were many such things in his world.
But Josh and Natasha can be described as disgust, although they have more or less a lot of blood on their hands, but this form of torture death is really difficult to accept.
Josh, in particular, thought it was very easy to kill someone.
But now this practice is really disgusting, the three people on the gallows are obviously a family, and there is a very small-looking child, although Josh doesn't mind killing, but he doesn't like to do things to children.
Of course, if it was a self-destructing truck-type child, Josh would still do it, and he didn't want to cause more trouble because of his momentary pity.
"It's pitiful, Mr. Giovanni Auditore's family is fine, why should he be executed?"
"Who knows? Want to hear the inquisitor say he's a traitor? ”
"But isn't he a banker? With a happy life and a beautiful wife and obedient son, why should he be treasonous? ”
"Who knows?"
“....”
Just as Josh was frowning and about to leave the scene, he accidentally overheard the people around him talking.
He didn't want to see such a miserable scene, it was not a comfortable thing for people to be hanged, and the appearance after death was also very ugly, although Josh hated these things and sympathized with them, but Josh didn't plan to do anything.
There are so many poor people in the world, although Josh can save one, but he can't save all of them.
And Josh doesn't know if the family has broken the law or something, if it is really the criminal Josh who saved them, then I'm afraid Josh will have to deal with them with his own hands.
But now Josh stopped, Josh didn't pay attention to the conversation around him before, mainly because he couldn't understand Italian, but it seems that people in this background world like or habitually mix some English in Italian, so Josh understands this paragraph.
Giovanni Auditore?
This name Josh is very familiar, because it represents a high-level assassin! Josh remembers clearly that he watched a movie called Bloodline, and he was handsome by the hero in the movie!
Although the movie is very short, Josh still survives it and comes to watch it from time to time.
Giovanni is not only handsome, but also handsome! But now, the handsome protagonist in the movie has been hung on the gallows, waiting to be executed.
Apparently Josh already knew why he was executed, because he was framed.
I'm afraid Giovanni himself didn't know that the fat consul Uberto had already rebelled, and now there was only death waiting for him, and this death would cost three deaths.
"In that case, it looks like I'm going to have to do something."
Josh touched his chin, he was surprised that he had crossed over, just in time for the execution of Ezio's family.
He had thought that he should travel to Ezio to become an Assassin and escape with his sister and mother to the Manor in Monteriggioni, or earlier.
But at this point in time, Josh is very satisfied, oh, I forgot to mention that Giovanni Auditore is Ezio's father!
Josh wondered what would happen if he saved his father and met them in the future when he became a Master Assassin.
"Like, isn't that good?"
Josh touched his chin, the first half of Ezio's life path had been focused on the Avengers, until he actually became a master assassin and then changed.
But Josh doesn't care, Josh needs Ezio's skills rather than his spirit, and it should be an investment and bargaining chip for the future.
"And Ezio's father is also a high-level assassin, so his methods should not be bad, that is, he can't jump and kill, but there shouldn't be any problems in teaching Natasha. Besides, he's a banker, so maybe he can help me with something about my faith? ”
The more I thought about it, the more I thought that maybe saving Giovanni was a very good decision, and this person was simply a super hidden character.
If this guy is really not very good, even as Ezio's father, Josh doesn't think Ubisoft will be bored to make a movie for him alone.
Glancing at the top floor of the church not far away, Josh happened to see a figure dressed in white, with his face hidden under his hat, running towards him.
Needless to say, Josh knew that it must be Ezio, and Josh knew that Giovanni's time of death had come.
"It seems that you have to be serious about not destroying Ezio's growth path and saving Giovanni at the same time."
Josh sighed softly, and in an instant, the magic power of his whole body surged, and the entire square seemed to fall into a state of both truth and falsehood.
