Fortunately, Desmond was rescued by Lucy, the researcher who had navigated Desmond into the Animus in Assassin’s Creed 1. She was, in fact, a member of the Assassin Order.
To counter the modern templar knights, he had to enter another Animus and find his path forward by tapping into the memories of another ancestor named Ezio. Through the Bleeding Effect, Desmond himself was gradually becoming a real assassin.
Meanwhile, the game told the players that the modern templar knights had found out the assassins’ hideout and forced them to move to another place.
Animus 2.0 was the updated version developed by an assassin engineer named Rebecca Crane. With the fragmental blueprint delivered secretly to them by Lucy Stillman, who was an assassin spy in the Roman branch of the Templar Order, Rebecca made this new version in the hideout of the Brotherhood.
This was a red machine looking like a portable recliner, and its functions were much more advanced than the previous version.
“Wow! This magic item has been upgraded,” Sala exclaimed.
“It will make everything feel realer, just like the magic array made by Dulan Workshop. I’m sure that it’s not real!” a golden griffin knight sitting across from Sala assured her and picked up the bottle of iced red tea with his right hand.
“I wish that I can come here every day,” Sala said excitedly, “I like this plot. This cultivation mystic realm has a complete and thrilling story.” She was eager to find out what would happen in this new story.
After sipping her milk tea gracefully, Helen said, “But I like the environment of this shop more.”
The computers lined up against the windows in rows of two with thick leather chairs. With Helen sitting next to her, Sala had other elves sitting behind her and the golden griffin knights across from her. As for Elina and the other assassins, they sat at the long oval stone table close to the counter.
These were the seats that the elves would pass by on their way to the counter.
When they had time, the players would walk over and watch others play, cheering for the good plays when they saw them. In contrast, other cultivation mystical realms gave each of the users a private cultivation room. No one would see their excellent performances in battles if it wasn’t broadcasted by Spiritual Spell Visual Projection.
Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood told the story about Ezio who had gotten a Piece of Eden and grown into a true master assassin.
Thinking that the war was over, Ezio wasn’t someone who possessed great ambition. Like Altair, he had also understood the true meaning of the assassin’s creed.
He would have returned to his peaceful life, but Cesare Borgia, a templar knight and the son of the Pope, broke into Ezio and his Uncle Mario’s villa with troops. To ensure the townspeople’s safe retreat, his Uncle Mario was killed while Ezio escaped from the slaughter and traveled to Rome.
As a person who would use every means to get what he wanted, Cesare Borgia not only craved for the Pieces of Eden but was scheming to overthrow his father to gain power. To counter the templar knights led by the ambitious Cesare Borgia, Ezio had no choice but to reassemble the Brotherhood.
Meanwhile, the modern-day plot continued in Assassin’s Creed: Brotherhood. For example, their hideout was the villa left by Mario. The Main Character Desmond was trained in virtual reality as well.
By now, Desmond had learned most of the assassin skills from his ancestors. including Eagle Vision and the Leap of Faith.
At this moment, Elina had passed the introduction of the game. Before her was a silver-gray memory zone. Soon, she saw training options for different combat techniques such as counterattack, techniques with different weapons, hidden blade assassination, and combo kills.
Combo kills was a newly-added skill which required swift and smooth movements to kill each target. Any blocking or dodging from the target and missing the vital organs would be regarded as a failure. Meticulous attention to details was a great challenge in the use of combo kill.
In fact, with combo kill, Ezio could slaughter a city alone in the original game. The System had re-created this skill, but to master it and use it smoothly without any warrior qi or spiritual essence required the players to have ultimate control of their body.
As an master assassin, Ezio could do it. But the players…
“Ahh-!” With a shriek, Elina was knocked down by over ten well-armed templar knights.
After passing Assassin’s Creed 1, she could deal with two to three opponents, but it was impossible to kill more than ten templar knights, each with one strike.
After all, these well-trained and well-armed knights were not morons!
Even Elina, who was an assassin in real life, paled when she saw this inhuman training method…
“Is this training designed for humans?!”
“Forget it…” After several failed attempts, she decided to check out the plot first and try to learn something by watching how Ezio reassembled the Brotherhood.
After all, the assassins in the Morning Light Empire had almost collapsed.
They were going to learn the combo kill later.
“Auch!” Failing again, Elf Girl Sala felt like crying while she stared at the gray screen.
“Why can’t I master it…”
In fact, she found that this combat technique was quite cool. After all, she was lousy at stealthy movements and could only fight her way to her target.
It emphasized the advantage of techniques. It would be so cool to murmur what Mr. Fang said before, which was ‘Don’t assassinate; use musou’ during the process! At the thought that she could return to Silver Moon Forest equipped with this high-level technique, she was a little thrilled.
Glancing around, she found that her teammates were also practicing this technique!
“Oh! I must work harder on it!”
Thinking that she was going to return to Silver Moon Forest soon, she put more efforts in her training.
…
Meanwhile, in the godly palace church in Canglan City.
“Mr. Luther and the masters of Dulan Workshop are about to set off, right?” The red-robed senior priest looked toward the distance and said mildly, “Soon, the glorious light of God will shine into that tranquil and peaceful forest!”
“It’s time for those complacent elves to be amazed by the top-quality craftsmanship of our Judgement Godly Palace!” Glass laughed coldly.
