Chapter XVI Preparations

Ezio: To be honest, Josh didn't mean to be embarrassed at all, and it can even be said that he followed the original plot. ◢ with * dream ◢ small *.lā

Although Josh had already learned from his communication with Giovanni, Giovanni had scared Vieri a lot, but he had spared his life.

At that time, Josh thought that this guy might not have the courage to harass Monteriggioni again.

But now, Josh finds himself as if he's underestimating the extent of this guy's luck.

Judging from Josh's cognition, this guy's head is really iron, maybe he thinks that there are many people who think of himself, and Josh is not commenting on this, since he wants to die, then Josh will fulfill him.

"Anyway, this guy probably died at the hands of Ezio during this time, right? Well, when the time comes, I just expect Rodrigo and Jacob to run fast enough, otherwise it will hurt to be solved by them all at once. ”

In fact, to be honest, if these were really killed by Ezio and his party, it wouldn't be a big deal.

No one knows better than Josh, in fact, after he entered this world to save Giovanni, I'm afraid that Ezio will have a hard time reaching the heights he should be in his mind.

The word love, Josh will not superficially think that it only refers to love, and family affection is also included in the word love.

According to Josh's expansion and practice, I am afraid that it will not take so many years for him to be able to reach his peak level and his religious power to become the largest in this world.

At that time, Josh would have no reason not to let Giovanni and Federico recognize Ezio, and even Josh could acquiesce to Giovanni or Pedruzio to teach Maria some mystical knowledge, so as to avoid the embarrassing situation of one less person when the family is reunited.

So, in fact, Ezio is long gone from the tragic things he had before, even if Josh still intends to let him follow his old path and get revenge or something.

It's more about the nostalgia for being a master assassin for yourself.

Of course, there is also an expectation.

"I always feel like I've done something not so good. Forget it, if it's really for the Brotherhood of Game History, I'm afraid it's really not a good thing for me to do this. But the current Brotherhood won't be what it looks like in the game, and maybe it will be able to swap status with the Paladin by then. ”

Not to mention, according to Josh's approach, maybe it will really become like this at that time. To do the best has always been Josh's efforts to do, as for changing history?

Hell, Josh doesn't know how many changes have been made for a long time, and he still cares about these?

"I wonder if the shadow company (Abstergo) will become my company in the future? Then Desmond worked in the company, and was captured by the remnants of the paladin to find the golden apple, and then destroy the shadow company? ”

Josh touched his chin and thought about it, but he just thought about it. What the hell will happen so long after that? And he had other things to do, so instead of thinking about it here, he might as well finish what he had to do.

Regarding the power of faith, Josh studied it for three months, and to be honest, the results can only be said to be average.

It was probably this power that was the reason for his first contact, and it was even more difficult to experience that this power acted on the soul. Although the power of his faith is gradually increasing, it is still difficult to fully study it.

Of course, there is still a little bit of gain.

For example, Josh tried to slowly condense the power of faith that was 'excreted' after being eroded by the power of the void and fused it into his soul. Although Josh didn't feel much about the specific effects, he still found some faint changes in his soul.

This shows that there is no problem with the direction of Josh, although the power of faith is very small now, and the reference value is not very large. But Josh believes that as long as he continues, he will definitely be able to meet his requirements, and he is already accelerating.

"Your Highness Josh."

Not long after Giovanni and Ezio had withdrawn, a man slowly walked up to Josh and bowed down very respectfully. This man was Mario, Ezio's uncle, who could wait until Giovanni and the others left.

"Oh, you're back? How's it going? ”

"Everything is normal, if there is no problem, as long as His Highness Josh is willing, our people can control the situation immediately."

Mario still bowed his head respectfully in response to Josh's question.

In fact, as early as two months ago, when Mario felt the aura of war, Josh gave him a task, that is, let him go to Siena to set up a good situation, so that he could accept the city when the time came.

To be honest, Josh's approach can also be said to be very rude, he directly asked Mario to recruit those mercenaries in Sienado, which is not difficult for Mario at all, because he was originally a captain of mercenaries, and he is still somewhat famous in the industry.

The mercenaries were recruited to be used as armies, and of course Josh asked Mariodore to find some of the better people among the mercenaries, as well as some poor people who had a very difficult life, recruit them into the Church of the Hidden Ones, and then train them to be good assassins.

In fact, these were all methods used by Ezio in the past, but Josh didn't have to wait that long, considering that Ezio spent three full years in Rome to weaken the Borgia family.

Josh wasn't going to take that long, he just needed a frame.

As for after?

That is, he and Galen took Hostner to play, and under this kind of deterrence, Josh is not afraid of those who are careful and will have any mental retardation.

Josh also asks Mariodore to contact the ambiguous members of the Brotherhood and have a good conversation with them.

You must know that the Brotherhood is just the birthplace of the Assassins, and in Josh's memory, this Brotherhood has always been a place where Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, the most typical is the executive leader of the Brotherhood in Rome, which is actually Machiavelli!

Who is Machiavelli?

This guy, who was born in 1469 and is ten years younger than Ezio, is the one who wrote The Treatise on the Monarch!

It is the guy who advocates getting rid of the shackles of theology and ethics, advocating the supremacy of the state, and taking the power of the state as the basis of law!

In fact, when Josh was playing the fraternity at that time, he was also stunned by this name.

For this reason, he also went to Google Baidu, and it turned out that it was really this person, and Josh knelt directly to Ubisoft at that time, this brotherhood is really an organization that has exploded.

Although Machiavelli's "Monarchy" may conflict with Josh's rights, Josh advocated that religion is just a belief from the beginning, and he really never intended for his religion to lead the world.

He preferred to have a symbolic right, which in simple terms had the same status as a religion in later generations.

The main reason is that he doesn't think he will abdicate, then leadership is not necessarily a good thing in his hands, he needs faith instead of domination, not to mention that he will not stay in this world forever.

Therefore, how to develop or how to develop these countries in this world, all Josh needs is faith.

And even if the religion changes managers, Josh doesn't know if some swelling guy will come and make a mess of the territory he has built.

Mario was about to leave when he received the task, but in the end, Josh gave him a magic crystal before leaving, which made Mario froze for a while.

The crystal was not a bargain at first glance, and the constant flow of silver luster inside told him that it was definitely a legendary magical artifact.

Don't say it, this thing is.

This crystal is actually something that Josh made out of the memory crystal, and the magic in it is indeed a memory, but it is indeed a very domineering one, and if you really want to classify it, it can be regarded as a very evil kind of magic.

The memory in this is actually a kind of magic that imposes forced memory, and its effect is to make a person's memory forcibly modified, and they can only remember what was instilled by Josh.

In fact, at that time, Josh was trying to make something that subliminally suggested, but he didn't have a head at all.

To put it simply, this thing is brain pumping again, and he even wants to see if he can make those things like other gods.

But it turns out that his talent in this area is really not good, since the soft one is not good, then come to the hard one, so this kind of defective product appeared.

It is a great skill to keep a person conscious, accept other memories and completely change a person. And Josh, to put it bluntly, is to directly force your memory to be modified, and then you only remember what I gave you, and obey unconditionally.

Of course, Josh doesn't tell Mario about these things, he just says that it's a magic that can make others surrender, and he wants Mario to use it on the Grand Master of Siena.

Mario didn't know what he meant, but he did it anyway.

However, when he finished doing this, he found that the Grand Master of Siena had become his own and continued to help them, which made him even more afraid of magic.

Silently changing a person, it's scary to think about.

"How's that crystal?"

"Very good, Your Highness Josh. And most crucially, they exiled a new monarch and the city was in chaos, which is perfect for our development. ”

Josh nodded, his history was average but he knew some of the stories of Siena.

For example, the war between Siena and Florence, such as the political change in Siena, and then the expulsion of the Nova family and their aristocratic supporters from the city, and then the city staged a black comedy of 'finding the best political model'.

But these are some digressions, and Josh is not very interested.

Since Siena is already like this now, then Josh will definitely not be polite about anything. It would be nice to have him in his own hands, anyway, now that the Black Death is raging in Europe, and there are a lot of displaced people, this is a good time to absorb the faith.

"Prepare for it, though it doesn't necessarily really start." Josh thought about it and spoke directly to Mario.

"When Giovanni and Ezio kill Vieri, the pesky bug, we'll be in Siena. It's so small here, and both me and we need a bigger stage. After Siena, it's Florence. ”

"I see, Your Highness Josh. As you wish. ”
