There is no Apple of Eden No. 3 in the League of Assassin headquarters on Tiber Island.
Yes.
This is the record written in Sloan's notebook. According to what is recorded above, the fragment of the Apple of Eden No. 3 currently in Baker's hands is actually the fragment controlled by the Assassin's League headquarters.
This was somewhat beyond Baker's expectations.
Because, if this is the only fragment left on Tiber Island, then why didn't you think of a way to get it back after being taken away by Sloan?
This unscientific.
And it doesn’t quite fit in with the rule that protecting the Apple of Eden has always been a major responsibility.
That's what Baker thought at first.
Soon, the answer to this matter was explained in the diary entries in Sloan's notebook.
Tell the truth.
Sloan is not only an obsessive-compulsive disorder, but also a diary addict. This is a bit puzzling for Beck. However, it is puzzling, and this electronic diary is quite useful for Beck.
In 1957, this was also the year that eighteen-year-old Sloan defected from Tiber Island after seeing his name appear on the loom of fate.
After Sloan came to New York, the League of Assassins sent people over. At that time, Sloan was hiding in a basement in Queens, New York, never leaving the door.
By 1960, all of a sudden, everyone in the League of Assassins seemed to have disappeared without a trace.
Sloan was also puzzled at first, but it was only after Sloan completed a few business deals and made a fortune that he learned some news.
turn out to be.
In that year of 1959, because the Assassin's League was out in force to find Sloan, Tiber Island, which had a very fragile internal strength, encountered the Templars, who had been enemies of the Assassin's League for hundreds of years. of invasion.
even.
A group of assassins who came to New York were also ambushed by the temple. The older generation of assassins who knew what Sloan had stolen were all killed.
The Assassin's League was also severely weakened by this.
After communicating with the few remaining old assassins, they planned to cancel the wanted order for Sloan.
the reason is simple.
Sloan was also an assassin even after he defected. Their hatred of the Templars is written in their inheritance. If the Templars are targeting them, then as long as they don't get the Apple of Eden, it's Tiber. It doesn’t matter if the island falls.
Sloan was let go in a daze, and lived happily until now, until he was sent to the point of no return by the father and son of the Cross, who had simple beliefs, because of fraud.
so……
This also explains why the Assassin's League ordered the assassins to capture Wesley alive. Presumably, they had already gone to the textile factory to look for it. The Assassin's League, who did not find the Apple of Eden fragment, thought that Wesley had given it to him. got it.
In order not to attract the attention of other people, or to paralyze the Templars who have now taken root in the Federation, this is why the Assassin Alliance did not send assassins over, but chose to offer a reward, no matter how anxious it was.
All right.
It is for this reason that Baker really has no intention of killing Wesley.
I had already planned to pass the blame on Wesley, but I couldn't just take the blame back for some temporary pleasure and then get the blame back inexplicably.
Baker walked to the bar counter of the bar, ordered a glass of bourbon, looked at the time, and prepared to wait for the information seller to come over.
at this time.
Baker heard the conversation between the two assassins next to him.
At first, Baker didn't pay attention, but when the assassin said a word, Baker entered and interrupted.
"Sorry to bother you."
Baker said to the Mexican assassin who was telling his companions about what happened at Kennedy International Airport in New York: "Did you just say that there was an attack on Tiber Island?"
The Mexican looked up at Baker who spoke out. His eyes stared at Baker's plain black-haired face for a while and then he asked uncertainly: "Hero?"
Beck nodded.
As Baker said before, he is somewhat famous in the assassin world, partly because of Baker's unique principles, and partly because of Beck's unique area of accepting orders.
After confirming his identity, the Mexican assassin said: "Yes, he should be from Tiber Island. The airport surveillance showed that an assassin dressed in medieval clothing was captured at the door of the toilet."
"Video surveillance?" Baker frowned and asked, "Are you sure?"
The Mexican took out his mobile phone, called up a video copied from the airport surveillance and handed it to Baker.
After reading it, Baker thanked the Mexican assassin and returned to his seat.
The video surveillance just now did indeed show a medieval figure dressed in red and white robes.
But Baker was certain that this was not an assassin from the League of Assassins.
Organizations that have been inherited for many years, hundreds or even thousands of years have more or less their own unique skills.
The ancestors of the assassin world, the Assassin League is even more so.
Hawkeye.
Bullet turns.
A leap of faith.
These three bug-like abilities are the signature skills of the Assassin's League, or the exclusive skills of the three members of the Assassin's League.
For example, Callum Lynch in the history of the League of Assassins was an assassin who integrated Eagle Eye and Leap of Faith and became the face of the League.
Sloan also learned to turn bullets during his time in the League of Assassins.
Of course.
In addition to these three bug-like abilities that are considered inherited skills, there is another ability that members of the Assassin League must learn.
That is, all assassins in the Assassin's League must also learn how to hide themselves in plain sight.
Put it this way.
After you have mastered this kind of hiding skill, even if you are alone in a room with another person, then even if you give that person ten days, he will not notice your existence.
Well……
The effect of the skill is similar to that of the male protagonist in the Korean movie "Empty Room". He lives in your home, eats with you, and dates your wife, but you can't even notice it.
Of course.
That kind of effect is the effect after reaching perfection. In the history of the League of Assassins, the only person who has mastered this skill to mastery is the legendary assassin Callum Lynch. Now no one can practice it to this extent.
but……
Even if it cannot achieve the invisibility effect of Dacheng, it can still be used to avoid cameras.
Then the problem arises.
If the person who appears in the camera is not the Tiber Island assassin, then who is the person disguised as this?
The answer is clear.
Except for the Templars, who have been hostile to the Assassin League for thousands of years, there is no one else.
What a coincidence.
Baker understood something in his heart, because he came here today just to get information about the Templars. To be precise, he wanted to buy information about a shadow company under the Templars' name.
at this time.
"Hello, Moulton!"
Baker came to his senses and turned around to look at the person who called him.
Smile slightly.
"Hello, Red Devil!"
"..."
