In the hidden cave below the ruins of the Parthenon, Merlin was in a pause while talking to the first assassin in human history, the demigod Cassandra.

This is a woman who has lived from the 4th century BC to the present, a woman who has lived for 2400 years.

The mysterious and powerful Cassandra put forward a condition that Merlin could not refuse, but her request made Merlin somewhat puzzled.

He asked:

"Why don't you do this yourself? As the first assassin, you should know better than anyone how to cultivate a new heir, and I just heard little girl Laila say that she tried to get power from your memory. .. which also makes me wonder, how did they do it? Time back?

"I have my own mission, Merlin."

Cassandra said to Merlin:

"I insisted for 2400 just to wait for a qualified heir to appear, and then pass on a secret that would affect the world to him or her, but now is not the time, and I still can't get rid of the boring longevity curse."

"The Brotherhood of Assassins was born for me, but it has nothing to do with me...In theory, I am not a member of the Brotherhood of Assassins, I just followed it for a long time."

She crossed Merlin, walked to Leila and Myers, picked up their spilled packages from the ground, and then took out a black device that could be worn on her eyes. She waved the device to Merlin. And then say:

"This thing originates from the "Forerunners", the alien technological powers of the ancient Greek gods. They called it "Animus", a virtual machine that transfers consciousness based on the inheritance of information in genes. Through this device, Let those descendants with the legendary assassin's memory in their genes return to the time when their ancestors were active in a virtual and realistic way..."

"It sounds incredible."

Merlin took over the Animus in the hands of Cassandra. He looked at the gadget, and Icarus quickly began to analyze the structure of this thing. Soon, artificial intelligence came to a conclusion.

"The internal structure and operation of this instrument are not the same as the basic theory of human science and technology. It is a product developed based on another scientific and technological theory. It does not have the diffusibility in a broad sense, and the information processing chip has an extremely high-level identity. Verification is bound by genetic characteristics."

Icarus's voice sounded in Merlin's ear, and Merlin asked in a low voice:

"Can it be cracked?"

"It's difficult, but I can try."

Icarus said:

"However, for Master Merlin, even if this technology is cracked, it does not make sense. Ms. Cassandra is right. This instrument can only be used by people with specific gene fragments."

"What is that talking about?"

Cassandra asked with interest:

"I feel like it's like a soul bound in a machine...is this artificial intelligence that you are developing and advancing in your time? She reminds me of some of the pioneers I have seen... "

"Her name is Icarus."

Merlin pointed to his own eyes and said:

"It is the most advanced artificial intelligence in the world and a good assistant for me."

"Icarus?"

Cassandra was a little surprised, a moment of nostalgia appeared in her eyes, and after a while, she said with a smile:

"I also had a good assistant called Icarus at the time. It was the best and the best falcon. It served as my eye, or my best partner."

"What a coincidence."

Merlin reached out his left hand, and in the beating of the dark red light, Raven Spirit Victor appeared on his arm. This dark red raven spirit has grown very powerful now, which is in line with the scout in Merlin's heart. Image.

However, after all, it was a raven, not an eagle, which made Merlin a little sorry.

"Look, I also have a bird, and it is also my good partner."

"it's beautiful."

Cassandra reached out and stroked the spirit raven. Logically speaking, this spirit could not be touched, but considering that there was a supernatural demigod standing in front of her, she could touch the spirit. This kind of thing is not surprising.

And Victor seemed to feel the power contained in Cassandra's body. He crouched cleverly on Merlin's arm, allowing Cassandra to stroke its feathers.

A look of counseling.

"You are really like me."

Cassandra looked at the raven on Merlin's arm and she said:

"If you were also born 2400 years ago, maybe we will be good friends."

"It's not too late now."

Merlin says:

"I love making friends, Ms. Cassandra...but let’s talk about the Assassin Brotherhood first. I inherited his role from Assassin Brothers from Lars Al Gore. The identity of the society, he told me that the Brotherhood is a great organization, in the dark for human civilization to maintain a free future, I thought it was a huge and powerful organization, but..."

He said with some disappointment:

"But I didn't expect that when I actually came into contact with the Brotherhood, it had perished... It seems that it is not as powerful as I thought."

"The Brotherhood has been weakening, Merlin, there is no need to be disappointed, this is only an inevitable law. The Templars are eager to use all available power to build a perfect world, order is most important to them, and others All human nature can be abandoned, and the Brotherhood believes that even if the world is not perfect, people should have the right to choose freely."

"The battle for ideas between us has lasted for thousands of years."

Cassandra sat on the broken stone, she said to Merlin:

"Human civilization has become stronger and stronger. The people’s overall thinking is no longer as easy to be fooled as before. Freedom has become one of the foundations of modern human existence. It can be said that the future that the Brotherhood has always wanted to see has been When it comes, the existence of organizations that protect free thinking is not as important as the dark age."

"And those who died together with the Brotherhood, and their enemies, the Templars."

"After the successful annihilation of the Brotherhood, the Templars organization has also reached the final stage of panting... It’s like two old men fighting for a lifetime. After trying their best to kill their opponents, they die away. And only the last step is left."

"So it's not a victory or a failure. It can only be said that the time for us is over."

Cassandra spread her hands and said to Merlin:

"But they haven't given up yet. They want to build a "perfect world" and promote a "perfect order." In the dark age, maybe this is a good thing, but in this era, this has undoubtedly become a kind of Paranoid terrorism advances order by whatever means, but its purpose is no longer as pure as their forerunners."

"I mean, the corruption inside them is shocking."

Demigod said softly:

"Their so-called perfect order is also very likely to become the rule of the tyrants of this era. In the final analysis, it is nothing more than some conspirators eager to take advantage of it."

Cassandra blinked. She looked at Merlin. She said:

"But the best part is that you know that the Templars of this era have another identity besides the disguise of the shadow company Abstergo, and it is an identity you are very familiar with."

"Blindly insist on perfect order...and realize it by any means, which really reminds me of the behavior style of some "old friends"."

Merlin looked at Cassandra and he said:

"Hydra?"

"Yes, Hydra."

Cassandra tilted her legs and put her hands on her knees. She fiddled with her braids and said to Merlin:

"Let me tell you some secrets that only I know."

"In the Second World War, Hydra was once ruled by the head of Nacui, the head of Hitler, you should know this, know that Hitler is an incurable Hydra, but what you don’t know is , Hitler has another identity, he was the leader of the Templars in Germany and even Europe..."

"During the period when he led the Hydra, the Templar's thinking and style were irresistibly integrated into the Hydra's organizational thinking, even if in the end the Red Skull Schmidt realized that things were not good, the Hydra Of control was taken back from Hitler, but it was too late."

Cassandra spread her hands and said to Merlin:

"Since then, the Templar’s ​​faction has taken root inside the Hydra. The Templar’s ​​thinking and slogan of chasing absolute order is very tempting, and it has a fearless spirit of sacrifice. It is difficult It has been completely eliminated. Today, that dangerous idea still occupies a very important position in the Hydra organization."

"Even those Hydra who advance the new order do not know the origin of this kind of thinking, but this cannot change their hidden identity."

Demigod said:

"They are Hydra, they are also Templars!"

"This... is really a surprising fact."

Merlin thought about Cassandra's words, and finally he found that the secrets described by Demigods could not pick out any errors, either logically or from Merlin's perception of the Hydra.

This is probably true.

"So, you help them."

Cassandra pointed to the three young men who were closed in time. She said:

"In fact, it is also helping you and your organization. If you can find more people with the legendary Assassin gene, maybe the Brotherhood of Assassins can really be reproduced in this era, but it reappeared, and the past us, It doesn’t matter much anymore. The times are improving and an organization must keep up with the times, but it’s up to you and them to control it.”

"But Merlin, IMHO, from my point of view, SHIELD seems to have some signs of templarization... I mean, you are also advancing a'new' order, and It also has the color of power and imprisonment. Although it is currently aimed at aliens, it is a bad sign."

The demigod warned:

"Maybe you are not as pure as you think."

"I never thought that SHIELD was pure, His Excellency Cassandra."

Merlin said softly:

"In my organization, there may be 2-3 of the 10 people who are hidden Hydra... I knew this very early. We are looking for and waiting for an opportunity to kill them all."

"It has nothing to do with me, you don't need to tell me this."

Cassandra stood up and she said to Merlin:

"So, is the deal established?"

"Ok."

Merlin looked back at the three rookies behind him. He said:

"I will train them, but I will use my way... In addition, you don't mind me doing a little bit of them, a little modification?"

"A transformation of the demon hunter?"

Cassandra pursed her lips. She said:

"No, I don't mind at all. The mediocre body and thinking cannot support the great cause, and ordinary people cannot resist Abstergo's pursuit, if these young people intend to inherit the legacy of the ancestors and rebuild the Brotherhood , Then whether they are at the level of will or body, they cannot be mortals..."

"In addition, since it is a commission, you have to get some compensation."

Cassandra took a rolled note from her pocket and threw it to Merlin. She said:

"After you complete my commission, I will agree to Geralt’s request to introduce you to the organization behind us, and as my personal thanks, you can go to the place where the master assassins have hidden treasures, take The items that go there, maybe they can help you, but after so long, there is probably only one or two things left in the treasure house that I left."

"And I want to remind you, Merlin."

Cassandra said seriously:

"Some of these things are special. Once you take them away, it means you will be targeted by some people."

"The ancient Greek gods are not completely withered, and some descendants of Zeus are active..."

"Some of them are hard to entangle..."

The demi-sister told me something and turned to the darkness. Merlin asked behind her:

"Ms. Cassandra, we will see you again, right?"

"of course."

Cassandra turned her back and smiled at Merlin. She put her hand on her chest and said to Merlin like a farewell:

"Remember...Everything is false..."

"Everything is allowed..."

Merlin also placed his left hand on his right shoulder and leaned slightly towards Cassandra. When he raised his head, the demigod had disappeared as usual.

For a person who can control the time, this disappearance can not be easier.

A few minutes later, Leila, Myers, and Victoria awakened from that state of stoppage. They stared blankly around, only to see Merlin standing in front of the broken sculpture, looking at them.

In the looming light of the cave, a dark red eagle seemed to be standing on his shoulder, and the cloak robe on his body became the old and solemn style that the legendary masters of the Assassin Brotherhood would wear. His wide sleeves hung down under Merlin's wrist, just like the spread wings. Under his feet, Gu Gou also tried to put on a majestic look, like a scaled-down cheetah sculpture.

Merlin folded his hands on his abdomen, and a black hood covered his face. He said softly:

"Young people... I have known all the past events, I have known your ideals and your enemies, you want to fight Abstego and the Templars, you need to be trained, strict and cruel Training, a training impossible for the cowards and the weak, and a training forging you into lethal weapons."

He says:

"I will help you complete it, I will help you become true assassins... Help you find more like-minded people, until you complete the reconstruction of the Brotherhood of Assassins, which has faded in time, this is what I have for me The commitment of old friends is also my mission and responsibility as an assassin."

"right now..."

Merlin raised his head, and the dark red eyes dreaded the three young people in front of them. Then they heard Merlin say:

"calls me..."

"tutor!"
