"Ah!"
"Wow - how is that possible!"
"Heh... You are the two children of the Auditore family, aren't you?" The Pope laughed, "for myself Are you annoyed by the failed assassination, underestimating my strength as a master of the Knights Templar, or underestimating the power of the [Scepter]?"
"Sure enough... It's the same as the information in "Secret Letter", it's another piece of Eden!"
"That's right, then today I'll show you this power!" Rodrigo clenched the scepter in both hands and thrust it into the ground! The scepter immediately released a dazzling golden light.
"Woooooo!!!" Frederick and the believers outside the main entrance of the church immediately fell down with their heads covered. Yes, they suffered an unbearable impact on their own spirits, and the effect was the same as the [Golden Apple]!
"Frederick!? Damn...!" Ezio, who was frightened, quickly got up and dragged his brother back, hoping to stay away from the scepter that was emitting such an ominous light.
"Why are you able to resist!?" However, he didn't need to do this. Seeing Ezio's unaffected movements, Rodrigo had stopped in shock, and continued to maintain it had no other effect than killing the believers around him. , the power of [Scepter] has a scope of action after all.
However, Rodrigo quickly got the answer, the small cloth bag hanging on Ezio's waist was glowing with the same golden light as the scepter, "Ah, I saw... You brought me the golden apple , hand it over now!"
Ezio, who put down his brother who was limp on the ground, raised a middle finger: "Don't think about it!"
"Ha, still so aggressive, just like your father... But please remember, who brought him the injury that he will never be an assassin in this life~!" Two years ago, Giovanni was arrested by the guards without resistance. Take it away. For two years, Giovanni has been hiding in Montaigni Gioni as a behind-the-scenes worker, which has already explained the credit of his original flying knife.
"You bastard!!!" Ezio, now 19, couldn't calm down.
"Come on, let me take back what originally belonged to me from you, boy~" Being surrounded by a bunch of assassins and losing the golden apple that he had already obtained was simply Rodrigo's biggest failure this year... However, the power has been transferred. The staff, facing the enemy with a tip similar to the tip of a spear, intends to erase this stain.
"As you wish." Ezio took out the golden apple from the backpack on his waist, and suddenly the four phantom clones came out.
Yes, maybe it's just an illusion. The attack of the illusion can only be conveyed to the mind and not to the body, but... Frederick, who has not yet been able to get up from the ground, proves the role of mental attack.
"It's amazing!" Rodrigo quickly stepped back. He had fought with assassins all his life, but he trusted the strength of the assassins, and he believed even more in the strength of the assassins from the Auditore family... Even if it was just an illusion, he didn't plan to fight a single one. Five, after all, he still has a way to win! "You are very powerful, but if you think you can turn a defeat into a victory this way, that's naive... Ha!"
"Ah!" Just like the "incomprehensible force" before, the five Ezios were bounced and fell to the ground.
"The influence of the [Golden Apple] in your hand on the will of human beings is above my [scepter], and even such a real illusion can be created, but," the scepter in the Pope's hand is like flowing golden Liquid, "My [scepter] can also control the human body!"
"What?! Whoa...!" Ezio was lifted up... in the air by some force that had just thrown them off.
"Hum haha~~ See, I'm about to gain the power of God!" Rodrigo meant that he was about to enter the secret room and gain the power of the "God" living in the "Garden of Eden" behind the secret room. However, Edge They can only understand that the power of combining the scepter and the golden apple is terrible, "Now, give me the golden apple."
"Ah!" Ezio struggled to resist the force on him and threw the golden apple back, "Frederick, run!"
Unfortunately, the strength is too small, the golden apple itself is as heavy as a shot put, and it cannot reach Frederick. Besides, Frederick can't get up from the ground now.
"Struggling to the death..." After that, he went to teach this little devil who doesn't know how to live or die. The Pope was most concerned about the golden apple, and hurriedly ran over and bent over to pick it up...
(Pfft!) The sharp blade pierced the body.
"Ah... ah..." Incomprehensible, Ezio, who had lost even the golden apple, could not escape the physical control of the scepter, and his brother Frederick was in front of him...
"Maybe I can't be an assassin anymore, but it's still possible to sneak attacks on unsuspecting people, Mr. Borgia..." The "believer who was on the ground" who appeared behind Rodrigo answered his question.
"You, you are... Giovanni Auditore...!" There was no turning back, but this voice Rodrigo would never forget!
"I'm sorry, I don't know if the scepter has the power to heal the body, so...!" Continuous attack with the hidden sword! Finally, the Hidden Blade stabbed to the neck.
"Ah... ah..." The scepter fell to the ground, but the Pope still stretched out his hand and tried to retrieve it, "My power... I will use these stupid transactions to build my own empire... My ideal... "
"That's all your desire, fat man," Ezio scolded.
"Ezio, the etiquette for dealing with the dead." Frederick, who didn't know when to get up, criticized... Ah, both he and Giovanni seem to have stronger resistance than ordinary believers, but both are It's just pretending.
The original plan was to cause trouble in Leeds to lead Rodrigo to the most convenient environment for assassination. On the bright side, Ezio, who owns the golden apple, fought with Frederick, secretly posing as Giovanni. Believers in black monk robes prepare sneak attacks in various forms... Although they did not expect the power of the [Scepter], adaptability is also a basic ability of assassins, isn't it? Therefore, at the last moment, Ezio threw the golden apple near Dad, and Dad had the opportunity to attack Rodrigo, whose attention was completely attracted by the golden apple!
"Yeah~~ We are assassins... assassins who use the routines of people from other worlds to assassinate vilely." Well, after saying this, you know who came up with this extremely simple plan that is better than a frontal charge of a family of three, right
"Cough, in fact, I think it's good to carry out tasks in this form in the future... The success rate is high, and there are still people who can escape."
"Whatever you say, you're the eldest brother anyway... Speaking of which, what about Uncle Mario, the carriage that promised to take us out of the Vatican?"
"Our grievance is finally over," ignoring the conversations of his sons, Giovanni, who almost died twice under the other's hands, still implements the Assassin's Creed and covers his eyes with his own hands, "... I hope you can die before you die. Peace of mind under the comfort of yourselves, His Excellency the Pope."
The fight between the Assassin Organization and the Knights Templar will not stop, and the activity of the Auditore family will not stop, but at least... The series of events surrounding the [Golden Apple] and [Scepter] can come to an end for now.
