The sound of the door being pushed open naturally reached the ears of the people who were chanting. However, their ceremony had already begun and could not stop just like that. Of course, in order to deal with such a situation, they had certainly made sufficient preparations. Prepare, this is their long-cherished wish that they have been looking forward to for more than a hundred years, how can it be carried out hastily.

Several years have passed since the Apple of Eden came into hand. On the one hand, the Apple of Eden has not been restored. On the other hand, there are preparations for the ceremony. At the same time, the arrival of the Crusaders is also a good time, so Saladin The guys will have to go out to confront the Crusaders, and the control of the city will naturally be much weaker.

In addition, they also want to be under the eyes of the Western countries and Saladin when they summon the gods, so that they can establish supreme authority in the entire Western world.

It's a pity that if the Pope came here in person, even if they might be able to see the beautiful sight of the Pope kneeling, as long as these Crusaders see the coming of God, they want to incite them to rebel and let them become themselves The army should not be very difficult.

After all, if it were not for their own beliefs, these soldiers would not come all the way to this holy city to participate in the war, not to mention the existence of this Apple of Eden. At worst, all these people would be brainwashed!

The people performing the ritual chanting did not stop their movements, and several of the guards surrounding them turned around and focused their gaze on the shadow of the church. Everyone present nodded silently. , this is their tacit understanding.

The bewitching power of the Apple of Eden immediately spread outward, just like the waves caused by water falling into a tranquil lake, and began to tamper with the thoughts of everyone in the shadows, and what was hidden in the shadows was naturally the assassin from the old man in the mountain.

On the one hand, Saladin entrusted the old man in the mountain to monitor the situation inside Jerusalem in real time. Naturally, this church was also within the scope of monitoring. In addition, Hassan, who was drunk as a smoker, also wanted to know whether the operation belonging to Irlan this time would happen. Will succeed, if Ilan encounters danger or fails...

Then it will be up to her to ask the adult to take action to solve everything.

But maybe Yan Zui didn't expect that the killers of the cult he sent would be bewitched by the influence of the Apple of Eden. In fact, this is normal. After all, the training methods of these killers are different from Hassan's training methods. , their hearts are not as firm as Hassan's.

If Yan Zui appeared in this church, Yan Zui's firm heart would not be greatly affected. However, in the same way, she would also need to spend a lot of energy to fight against the bewitching voices in her mind and heart. .

Watching these assassins coming out of the shadows, after wandering for a while, they listened to their orders and rushed directly towards the door of the cathedral to deal with all the intruders.

"Since even the assassin of the old man in the mountain can bewitch and control, this is really surprising."

Another person wearing a gorgeous robe showed a smile on his face, "Since we are human beings, we have yearnings and beliefs in our hearts. I just let them see the scene where they have fulfilled their desires and beliefs. That's it." Being so lost in the illusion can only mean that these assassins are nothing more than nothing."

In fact, Yilan was also affected by this magic power, but the holy object he held in his hand offset most of the magic power. Coupled with the firm belief in his heart, the illusion had no effect on Yilan. What a big effect.

There was just a flash of dizziness in front of my eyes, and I found myself sitting in the lobby of the Brotherhood. All the holy objects had been collected. It was already impossible for God to descend. As long as these holy objects were collected properly, hidden beneath the Brotherhood's headquarters.

A voice kept ringing in my ears, saying that your mission has been completed and you can have a good rest. It seemed that someone raised his finger and pointed at the members of the fraternity in front of him, and kept saying, since the mission has been completed, Wouldn't it be nice for everyone to live a peaceful and peaceful life together?

From now on, there is only joy, no more sorrow, and you can do everything you want to do. In this way, the relationship with Yan Zui can be eased to the greatest extent. This is the world you yearn for.

Ilan almost laughed out loud when he looked at the illusion in front of him. Even if he had collected all the holy objects related to God, this does not prove that the world has achieved peace. Where there are people, there is desire. When God owns Doors and windows have been closed, and people driven by desire will naturally look for other avenues.

Be it Satan from Hell, remote evil gods, or gods that have long since disappeared, such as Zeus in Greece, Ra in Egypt, Odin in Northern Europe, or Jupiter in Rome.

Therefore, the current situation cannot be the end of all tasks. It is just the beginning. The Assassin Brotherhood still has a long way to go. Who are you kidding by using such an illusion to fool people?

Ilan looked at the illusion in front of him and basically kicked it out. The entire illusion shattered like glass, and the gorgeous stairs rushing upward appeared in front of him again.

Ilan had never been to the cathedral before. In order to explore the way, he could only take out the machine beast he made from his pocket, give part of his vision to the bird, and then let it fly directly. The next moment Irlan received a touch of crisis from his back and top.

The right hand reaches for the mechanism in the left hand, and the steel claw is pulled out. The specially made steel cable is pulled open instantly, followed by the sound of metal collision, and the assassin runs with a scimitar, and the weapon in the assassin's hand cuts on the steel cable. On top, Ilan turned around and kicked him away. Looking at the black figure flying out, Ilan shook his head.

This kind of assassination technique is all leftover from playing by yourself. Don’t you think it’s funny to use this technique to assassinate a person who was once the top assassin in the Mountain Old Man’s Order?

Do those guys think that as long as they control the assassin of the old man in the mountain, they can block their way forward?

Indeed, for the sake of his former reputation, he would not kill the assassins of the Old Man in the Mountain, nor would he even leave them with hidden wounds that could never be recovered, but this did not mean that this condition would restrain him.

Just break the bones of these guys. If he remembered correctly that there is a secret medicine for treating fractures in the order, then the hidden sword is not suitable. Irlan looked at his right hand.

Chapter 95: Where everyone is looking

He slowly opened his right hand, and in the palm of his right hand, a cross-like pattern glowed, and finally turned into a cross sword and appeared in Irlan's hand, but this cross sword did not have a blade. Judging from the appearance It does look like a cross, but a little slimmer.

Today the True Cross, which left Jerusalem a few years ago, reappears in the churches of Jerusalem! !

Irlan gently clapped his palms with the cross sword in his hand, and then raised his eyebrows. Then it was time for education. Let him see how far the juniors of the Mountain Old Men's Order have grown. Bar.

Although he is no longer the killer of the Old Man's Order in the Mountain, he is still a friend of Yanzui. This identity is enough. It is normal for him to teach his assassins a lesson.

Even if it's abnormal, it doesn't matter. Anyway, I have learned from a certain god what it means to buy and sell by force, and what it means to be shameless.

What's more, at the moment, I can only do this. I can't be attacked. Why don't I fight back? I am not a scarecrow, nor is I a big enemy.

Although he is best at assassination, as a candidate for Hassan, he can use any weapon. He does not need to be proficient, but he must be proficient. At least now, it is no problem to use the weapons in his hands to teach these assassins who have fallen into the illusion. .

Looking at the assassins jumping around in this space, Irlan raised his left steel claw and flew out quickly, accurately hooking an assassin. Perhaps even this assassin did not expect that he would be caught. He was easily grabbed by the steel claws and then dragged to the ground.

The assassin quickly adjusted his posture in mid-air, grabbed the dagger in his hand and stabbed directly in the direction of Irlan.

Ilan looked at the assassin and just shook his head slightly. Could it be that the assassin thought that the dagger in his hand could compare to the cross sword in his hand? What a joke, let him teach this assassin about reality today! Even if you are caught in the illusion, you should be able to feel the difference in strength by instinct, which will bring shock and fear!

"Don't worry about whether you are in an illusion at this time, just run away——!!"

The sword of the cross collided with the dagger, maybe because we are in Jerusalem at this moment, maybe because Jerusalem is being affected by sacred chants at this moment, the light emitted by the cross at this time is far beyond imagination, even the black dagger , after hitting the light of the cross in his hand, there were signs of fragmentation and breakage.

Along with the black dagger, it turned into fragments and scattered around under the impact of magic. Then the cross sword was drawn to the assassin's face. If he didn't have control, the crosses would probably be smashed to pieces. The bones on half of this assassin's face could even bend his head and break his neck.

The assassin's body was unknown in the air, spinning for a few weeks, and then hit the ground heavily. When he came out, he subconsciously covered his cheek, like an innocent boy who was suddenly slapped in the face with a look in his eyes. A little shocked, but also a little confused.

It seems that he doesn't understand why he walked out of his hiding place carelessly, and he doesn't understand why he wants to fight with the powerful assassin in front of him who has been clearly pointed out by the seniors of the order not to be his enemy. What he doesn't understand the most is , why did the young assassin in front of him, who slapped himself with a strange weapon in his hand, have a kind of kindness in his eyes?

Irlan also felt a little more relaxed in his heart. He did not expect that teaching and guiding the younger generations would be so pleasant. After returning to the Brotherhood in the future, should he also act as a teacher to guide the assassins of the Brotherhood?

I wonder what the assassins from my own brotherhood would think? But now we still need to wake up these brotherhood assassins!

Looking at the assassin who still had some confusion and disbelief in his eyes, Irlan curled his lips and said, "What are you waiting for here? Now that you are awake, let's leave Jerusalem. What will happen here next? I can't ensure."

As he spoke, Irlan sidestepped away from another assassin's attack. Finally, he grabbed the assassin's arm, threw him to the ground over his shoulder, and then pointed the cross holy sword at the assassin's cheek. , even with a violent beating, as an assassin, he fell into the illusion so easily, and he really should be taught a lesson.

Just as Ilan was making his way up the church in Jerusalem, outside the city of Jerusalem, the troops commanded by Richard were fighting with Saladin's troops. Of course, it was more like a martial arts exercise than a battle. The number of casualties is simply pitiful.

After all, this period of time has been a time of close discussion.

And the current relationship between Richard and Saladin is simply good.

During the siege of Acre, Richard quickly contracted some kind of scurvy due to acclimatization, but he still insisted on working and wrote to Saladin, hoping that he could send fruits and ice cubes to help reduce fever, and unfolded a secret Negotiating, Saladin delivered the life-saving gift as promised.

Later, Richard persuaded Saladin's brother to convert to Christianity and marry his sister Joan, so that the couple could rule the Holy Land together. Saladin half-jokingly agreed, but Joan vowed never to marry a pagan.

A year later, Saladin's brother paid a return visit to Richard. Richard gave him a high-level reception and even made an exception by granting one of his sons knighthood. In order to respect his faith, he deliberately omitted the Christian part of the ceremony. This was the highest honor. honor.

After Richard won the victory in Jaffa, he fell ill again and developed a high fever. Saladin, who returned to Jerusalem, sent peaches and ice cubes to reduce the fever, as well as envoys for peace talks. The current result is naturally a peaceful confrontation in Jerusalem. .

Perhaps the confrontation between the two sides was also deliberately giving Ilan time.

Perhaps Saladin had already received some information from Richard. As a hero, how could he allow a group of believers to use the name of divine power to suppress the king's power, just to take this opportunity to clean up the betrayers in his own camp. From then on , under his management, Jerusalem will have less secret disturbances.

Now Richard is also abiding by the virtues of knights. On the one hand, he is completing the agreement with Irlan, and on the other hand, he also wants to bring the Crusade to an end. In fact, Richard at this time is also It was almost as if he was returning home, as the news of his brother's betrayal had already reached his ears.

Richard looked up at the holy city in front of him, praying in his heart that everything would end smoothly and smoothly.

Chapter 96: Learning from the old man is also of the same origin, right?

In the church in Jerusalem, Irlan was an assassin who beat up a group of soldiers and the old man in the mountain every time he climbed up. Looking at the assassins and soldiers who were knocked down by him three times, Irlan really wanted to These assassins and soldiers knelt in front of him, and he spoke carefully!

How come everyone's physical fitness is so weak, and their skills look a bit rusty, especially the soldiers guarding Jerusalem. It feels like they haven't fought in a long time. How can they still want to guard Jerusalem with such physical fitness?

The old man in the mountain still wants to assassinate himself with such unfamiliar skills? Where do these rookies get their confidence?

Irlan patted his palm gently with the true cross. To be honest, this cross is useful as a ruler, but it doesn't matter, there is no time to educate these wastes now.

As for the assassin of the old man in the mountain who was taught a lesson by him...

Write a letter to Yan Zui and ask Yan Zui to strengthen the training of his men. You can't give up on yourself without small weapons such as crossbows. Unlike the Brotherhood, the old man in the mountain pays great attention to his own strength. , if you put the cart before the horse, the old man will probably be angry.

The closer he walked to the top of the church, the louder the sacred chanting became. However, Irlan could always vaguely feel something strange in this sacredness. It should obviously be a sincere praise without any desire. At this moment, in the singing voice, there was a hint of anxiety and even a bit of selfish desire.

In fact, when lamenting God’s great deeds, it doesn’t hurt to bring some of your own desires. After all, as long as all living beings live in this world, they will always have something to think about and always have something to ask for. God will also show His favor when He listens to prayers, but How would you describe how you feel right now?

Just like the legend of the river god, of course in the West it is the legend of the spring goddess. The ax in the hand of the woodcutter accidentally fell into the spring. The goddess walked out of the spring with a gold ax and a silver ax and asked the woodcutter. Husband, which one is the ax in the woodcutter's hand?

If the woodcutter answers honestly, then the gold and silver axes will be given to the woodcutter as a reward. If the woodcutter tells lies, the goddess will turn around and leave, and even the woodcutter’s original ax will not be returned to him.

But now, it was as if someone had heard such a legend and deliberately threw the ax in his hand into the spring, deliberately telling the truth in exchange for a reward.

This kind of behavior cannot be said to be wrong at once, but it is definitely not right. As that sentence says, everything is priced by fate in the dark. Using God's kindness and compassion, one day it will be the same. Bear the wrath of God in His wrath.

I'm afraid that even if I don't come here, the guys who are performing the ritual will only attract the wrath of the gods in the end, but this does not prove that I can turn around and return here.

After all, it is two different things for the gods to bring down their anger to resolve this matter, and for you to personally fulfill your promises and vows, follow your own heart, and fulfill your responsibilities!

What's more, I originally advocated and valued the power of people. This is the era of humans, but now I don't need manpower to solve this matter, but I am expecting the anger of the gods to end everything. Is this a slap in my face?

After arriving at the upper level of the church, the guards here were no longer the original Jerusalem soldiers and the controlled Old Man of the Mountain assassins, but members of the organization who wanted to bring God down.

These members wear gorgeous white cloaks and complicated religious costumes, layered on their bodies. They seem weird but perfectly put together all the patterns. Grand, complicated and luxurious are the adjectives for this set of clothes. Perhaps it is believed that as long as such complexity and grandness exceed the limits that ordinary people can reach, they will get closer to gods.

Perhaps these people have long since abandoned their human identity in their hearts.

In fact, it's a bit ridiculous to see this group of people like this. In Ilan's eyes, the era of gods has passed, and this group of people actually chose to give up and now want to chase the long-gone past.

If Ilan knew about it, the gods of Greece in the distant past, as gods who wandered from the star sea to this place, finally abandoned their incomplete bodies, appeared in front of humans in human form, and thought and acted with human feelings. You will definitely say with a smile: To a certain extent, the gods are all following the humans, but these guys chose to abandon humans and follow the gods.

Maybe the choices these guys made and the path they took were wrong from the beginning.

Two members of the organization guarding the stairs raised their hands. One of them used this shaping magic to quickly deform the church's floor. Huge soldiers made of rocks appeared in the hall one after another. The other also raised his hands. He raised his hands, and the red magic spread outwards, pouring into the bodies of these rock soldiers.

Soon the eyes of these delayed soldiers flashed a red light, and the aura on their bodies also changed from nothingness and calmness to mania. It was obvious that this was a magic that made inanimate existences manic and allowed them to move freely, giving them the ability to move freely. The ability of living things to move briefly is considered a miracle to some extent.

No wonder these guys want to claim to be God’s spokesperson.

Looking at the slightly tall stone puppet soldiers, Irlan looked at the bladeless cross sword in his hand. If he only relied on such a cross sword, it would be difficult to destroy these stone soldiers, although he could constantly use assassins to deal with them. He found an opportunity to get in front of the two organization members, and then stabbed their throats with the hidden sword in his hand.

But now we don’t have that much time. When I was still in the Old Man’s Order in the Mountain, I read the history of Hassan in the order. According to the records, the first generation Hassan didn’t carry out assassinations at all. He still held a big sword. A huge shield cuts all the way to the target.

The old man called this approach respect, letting the person who was killed know who the person who killed them was.

When I read such a record at the time, Irlan thought it was nonsense. Otherwise, why would the Order of the Old Man of the Mountain not be the Berserker Order but the Assassin Order? This must be a joke that someone recorded somewhere.

However, when Hassan changed generations later, seeing the huge figure of the first-generation old man, Ilan understood that the record he saw might not be groundless. After all, the old man still held the hand covered in blood. The black sword.

And now Irlan decided to learn from the old man's approach, work a little harder, and just hit it in!

Chapter 97: The Dream of a Saint in a Moment

Although his approach may not be that like an assassin's, didn't he learn his skills from Hassan? And isn’t the origin of Hassan the first generation of Hassan? So if you try to learn from Mr. Hassan, it’s not considered apostasy, right?

It's just that I don't seem to have a handy weapon...

Ilan looked at the cross sword in his hand and recalled the first time he saw the cross. The cross stood huge in the middle of the treasure house. Now he is no longer the child he was yesterday, and his strength is still there. It hasn't completely grown to its peak, but with the magic power, there shouldn't be much of a problem picking it up.

As if aware of Ilan's thoughts, the cross began to change its shape, and the part of the cross began to return to its original appearance. It was sacred, huge, and somewhat holy. The white stone-like body was inlaid with gems. At the same time, the original The blade of the sword began to become rounded and elongated.

This cross sword turned into a cross hammer in a short period of time. Although it is not a cross sword, it should be easier to use such a weapon to deal with these stone puppets.

The member of the organization who used magic to shape the stone soldiers raised his hand, and the top of the hall began to condense downward stone cones. When the stone cones fell like hail, if there was no strong force or for defense, props will inevitably be seriously injured or even killed directly under such an attack.

The holy cloth seemed to be aware of the change in the environment, or was stimulated by the cross. It also emitted a dazzling light, fell off from Ilan's left arm, and occupied Ilan's body almost immediately. With a flash of light, a huge cloak with gold-rimmed edges appeared on Irlan's body.

The back of the cloak depicts sacred and simple patterns, and there is also a red sacred cloth and sacred belt fluttering with the magic power. Even the clothes on the body have turned into a pure white color, which is a bit more religious. The pattern, in order to facilitate Ilan's battle, there is no ceremony in the whole set of clothes. The clothes are so complicated, but they are as simple as combat uniforms.

But even so, the sacred cloak and the sacred belt floating in the air, as well as the vague sacredness and luxury on the entire outfit, all show that this person at this moment is not an ordinary existence. Coupled with that The cross hammer in his hand is simply like a religious judge and enforcer.

Not only that, the Ten Commandments on his left arm also began to emit a golden light, making Ilan look even more sacred. Perhaps some priests and nuns, seeing such a scene, would immediately pray and sing praises, like this Dressed in such a posture, he is either the Holy Son or the Pope.

He obviously has wheat-colored skin and slightly messy hair, and does not have the oppressive feeling of power held by the Pope. In the eyes of the tutorials of this era, he may look a bit nondescript, but it seems to be vaguely similar to the era of the Holy Son. The image of the saint coincides with it.

Yilan couldn't help but sigh when he looked at his current appearance. It was another change of buying and selling by force. Forget it... he had already gotten used to it.

I have complained before about whether I am an assassin or a pope when holding so many holy objects. Now, is it better to confirm my second identity? But I don't care about this identity, and the current Pope will never admit that he is one.

It's just a dream for a moment...

It's just that this momentary dream will be imprinted on his life. What kind of changes will happen? At this moment, Irlan still doesn't know. Now he just wants to raise the cross hammer in his hand and carry these things along the way. The soldiers smashed and rushed to stop the entire ceremony!

The rock puppet soldiers raised their sharp swords and rushed forward. Irlan just waved the cross hammer in his hand gently. The power of the Ten Commandments also spread along the hammer handle to the entire weapon, accompanied by a sound of stone. With the sound of explosion, the soldiers made of rocks were instantly smashed into pieces, and the manic power also disappeared under the light of the cross.

The stone vertebrae that fell from above were already bounced aside by the divine power before they came into contact with the cloak transformed from the holy corpse cloth. It was just an attack composed of stones, just like a thrown stone. , how could it be possible to break through this defense.

The sound of shattering rocks followed like firecrackers. Seeing this scene that could be called a berserker battle, the members of this organization couldn't help but want to say a few swear words.

In other words, all this has exceeded their expectations.

All the members of the organization know that the people of the Brotherhood are targeting them. At the same time, the founder of the Brotherhood has been assassinating members of the organization. This is also well known to everyone. It will also be because of the struggle between them. , deliberately revealing information about members of the organization that he disliked directly to the Brotherhood.

Therefore, it was expected that the current assassin would rush all the way to stop them from performing the ritual, but then everything went in the same direction as a crazy horse, running away from the expected route.

First, this assassin actually easily eliminated the soldiers below and the assassins of the old man in the mountain. The speed was so fast. Although it was a bit unexpected, it seemed reasonable, so there were two of them blocking here.

But what happened? Why did the promised assassin have a heavy hammer in his hand? And if you read it correctly, this heavy hammer is the True Cross they have been looking for! ! Why can an assassin be recognized by the cross? !

In the end, a cross was enough to shock them, and the appearance of the holy shroud made them even more at a loss. Could it be that the assassin in front of them was the blood of Jesus left in the world? I don’t understand, I can’t understand at all!

The most important thing is, why did the Holy Bone Cloth decorate the assassin in front of him like this? Just like the saints in early Christianity! So who are they? Are these believers who pray day and night for the coming of the Lord no better than an assassin?

There is also the left arm. It is unclear what words are depicted on that left arm, but the fact that the sacred power exceeds the little apple they hold is enough to explain some problems.
