Chapter 8: The Eagle (I)

Please enter the text.? Follow? Dream?. Lā stood at the top of Monteriggioni's church, and Josh looked around.

I have to say that this quiet place is really a bit poetic, even though Josh has been in this town for almost two months, he still likes to run to the top of the church to see the scenery.

In fact, it's not about the scenery, it's more likely that Josh feels that it's quieter here and no one can disturb him, and in the past two months, Josh has experienced a madness that is even more powerful than when he was a prince in the Muya Continent, especially after he asked Galen to teach Giovanni and Mario some basic vindictiveness, this atmosphere simply scared Josh.

Two months ago, Giovanni convinced his younger brother Mario, and Mario immediately held a ceremony of allegiance to Josh in the name of the leader of the Brotherhood and the captain of the Monteriggioni mercenaries.

It's just a simple allegiance, and Josh doesn't have the power of faith at all, but at least it's the first step to success, isn't it?

Josh, with the help of Akatosh, then came up with a preliminary version of his doctrine.

This doctrine is also very simple, but it is completely enough for the current Josh, and the core of the content is to throw away some things that bind human nature.

What was the purpose of the Renaissance? Isn't that what it's all about?

Of course, there are also the emerging germs of radicalism that Josh is too lazy to pay attention to. And for some unknown purpose, Josh added a famous quote that ran through all of the Assassin's Creed.

"All things are false, all things are allowed."

Of course, this statement can be easily misleading. So this is not written in the teachings given to the general public, but only to those who are counted as high-ranking and who have been trained to understand it deeply.

Anyway, Josh doesn't want to make someone misunderstand this sentence, and then do something wrong, and then he needs to send someone to clean it up.

It's too much trouble, and it's a scandal for Josh to be religious. He wouldn't be so stupid.

"Counting the time, Ezio should be coming over soon, right?"

Josh stretched out boredly, then said to himself. If you count it in time, Ezio should have killed the fat Uberto too. Even now it should be on the way to Monteriggioni.

Josh's guess was not wrong, because while he was in a daze on the roof of the church, Giovanni gently came up behind him. Even if Josh couldn't see him, he still did all the etiquette that he had to do.

"Your Highness Josh, news from Florence has reached this side. And our agents have reported that Ezio has killed Uberto and is now on his way to Monteriggioni. ”

"Well, it looks like I'm thinking."

Josh nodded, and sure enough, it was about the same as he thought.

Of course, there are some deviations, that is, Ezio's speed is even faster, and the speed of transmission of information is really slow in the real era, even if he uses carrier pigeons, so Josh thinks that Ezio is probably almost there now.

After thinking about it, Josh suddenly showed a smile and said to Giovanni, "Are you interested in meeting your son?" ”

Giovanni paused for a moment, he thought that Josh was doing some kind of test on him, so he quickly replied: "No need for His Highness Josh, I will restrain myself from not seeing him, I swear I will not affect His Highness Josh's plans, absolutely not." ”

Giovanni's resolute face made Josh a little amused.

There is nothing wrong with Giovanni calling His Royal Highness Josh, although this is not the Muya Continent, but Josh can now be counted as the pope of an emerging Holy See, so it is okay to call him His Royal Highness or His Majesty.

The pope is to some extent on the same level as the emperor or something, and of course it depends on the influence of this religion.

If you look at the religion that is currently prevalent in Europe, this is perfectly fine. Josh's religion is now relatively similar to that of an ant, but Giovanni thinks that Josh will definitely be in charge in the future.

"Don't be so nervous man, I did say I wouldn't let you ruin Ezio's growth, and I said I wouldn't let you and his other sons see Ezio. But I didn't seem to say that I wouldn't let Ezio have a qualified mentor? ”

Josh blinked, then slowly approached Giovanni and looked the guy up and down.

It was really funny for him to look puzzled and then change to some enlightenment, of course, Josh didn't sell it but said directly:

"Giovanni is dead, hanged and buried in front of countless Florentine people, including your son. Then you are no longer Giovanni in front of him, and from now on your code name is Eagle, don't you think this solves the problem? ”

Giovanni was very excited, and he nodded fiercely: "That's right, Giovanni Diortore is dead, and now I'm an eagle!" ”

"That's right, man, your creed: all things are false, all things are allowed. It's not a good place to use it, but to be honest, there's nothing wrong with using it at this time. Quite out of the picture, isn't it? ”

Josh teased with a smile. It occurred to him that Ezio, with the help of his uncle Mario, had only learned a few simple tricks, but he had soon figured out a path that worked best for himβ€”simple, quick, and effective.

Although there is a deviation from Giovanni's style, Josh remembers that Giovanni was handsome and applauded in the bloodline movie, but he was not like Ezio.

Even in his later years, Ezio was straightforward to kill people - he would take them out at once, while Giovanni would choose to constantly fight and then kill.

Although the style is different, Josh feels that there are at least some similarities between them.

Anyway, no matter how you look at it, it's better than the style of the berserker Bayek. Well, it's better than the appearance in the God of War's Creed, not to mention the big Spartan stallion. The guy whose charm even a man can't stand it, Josh still thinks it's just a matter of not saying it.

"Your son's teachings will be handed over to you in the future, oh yes. Aside from Pedruccio, he doesn't seem to be in good health, right? ”

"Yes, he was physically weak since he was a child"

"It's nothing, let him learn magic with me in the future."

Josh suddenly remembered that it seemed that Pedricio had asked Ezio to collect feathers in the first place.

Regardless of Ubisoft's achievement, which was a golden sword, the feather was a nice thing to do, and it would at least allow Ezio's mother to recover from that state of distraction.

That's the state after losing her husband and son, in fact, this Lady Mary is really miserable. Losing three loved ones overnight is unbearable for even a man, let alone a woman?

And those feathers can make her recover from this state, and I don't know what the effect is.

But Josh thought it was funny, Pedricio had Ezio collect it at the beginning, and he treated it as if it were a secret. Whatever the reason, Josh was going to try to see if he could raise the poor little fellow.

"That's his honor! Thank you again for your generosity, Your Highness Josh. ”

"Alright man, you can get ready. I'll leave it to you to pick up Ezio. ”

"Yes, Your Highness Josh."

Early the next morning, Giovanni left Monteriggioni alone.

A good high-ranking assassin, unlike his younger brother Mario, he had long been accustomed to walking alone. Especially after learning the battle qi for almost two months, he became more confident.

At this point, Giovanni wore an iron eagle-faced mask, wrapped in a pure black Assassin robe, which Josh had created in imitation of the strongest Altai armor in the game, and Giovanni now looked like a black Grim Reaper.

He rode slowly along the road to Monteriggioni, and although he had not achieved anything so far, he believed the news from the Brotherhood informant that Ezio would be around tonight if nothing else.

Of course, he also knew that the kid named Vieri, who was jealous of his son, was also in action.

But he didn't care much about this, as long as he found them, what couldn't be solved? The dangers that Giovanni had encountered before were much more terrifying than this.

The sun was slowly setting, and Giovanni was still searching.

When he was hungry, he took off his mask and ate some of the things he had hunted, and when he was thirsty, he drank some of the water he had brought with him, and he knew very well how important it was to be in good physical condition for a fight, even if it was like a fight in his eyes.

Unfortunately, until the moon had risen, Giovanni had not been able to find the whereabouts of Ezio and his party, which made him a little depressed. He worries that his son is in serious trouble. But I don't think the information says that.

"Is there a mistake in the intelligence?"

Jovari stretched himself in the grass on the side of the road, and he was very uncomfortable after a day of riding, especially in the hip area.

Don't think that riding a horse is relaxing, in fact, riding a horse is a two-way thing - horses will be tired to death, and people will be tired to death.

Giovanni's physical fitness is gradually improving, and he doesn't feel much tired, but holding a position for a long time makes him feel a little numb.

So he decided to rest for a while, and this was the way to go anyway.

Looking up at the stars in the sky, Giovanni felt as if he was a little nervous.

This nervous feeling is actually quite complicated, ranging from the excitement of seeing his son and wife and daughter, to the loss of not being able to see each other in his true identity, and even the nervousness of how to teach Ezio.

"Anyway, the future will always be better, won't it?"

Giovanni smiled self-deprecatingly, feeling as if he was thinking too much.

Just like he said, the future will always be better, at least now he is not dead and Ezio's brother is not dead, but he can't be contacted with his real identity for the time being, but it's better than yin and yang, right?

Just as Giovanni was thinking, he was suddenly awakened by the sound of horses' hooves. He quickly got up and put the mask on, then looked towards the source of the sound.

At this time, a carriage is being besieged by a group of people, and it is his son Ezio who is driving it!
