Chapter 291 16. creed


"What I'm going to tell you next is history that doesn't exist in history, it's a legend that has never been told.""

You just have to listen and keep it in your heart, and never spread them until death comes, or a successor is found."

Lars.

Al.

In a low and serious voice, Gul said to Merlin on the other side of the pool: "You can listen to it as a story, but one day, you will know what I am talking about." ”"Then let's talk about it."

Merlin sat on the other side of the pool, and at this moment, the sons of the three palaces of the two eras and the rebellious sons of the two eras looked at each other, sharing their stories and a legacy that was about to be passed on."

I'm listening."

Merlin spread his hands and said, "But if the story isn't exciting enough, I'll probably fall asleep." ”The old Assassin ignored Merlin's sarcasm, he paused, as if to organize the language, and after a few seconds, he spoke, "Assassin is the oldest profession in human civilization.It represents a world of darkness, shadow, evil, and intolerance to the sun, but in the darkness there are also Assassin Creeds in the bearers. ”"We are not murderers, we are not killers, we are not makers of chaos, on the contrary, we are defenders, and we defend justice that is very reasonable, and justice has nothing to do with us.What we want to defend is to ensure the survival of the free will that represents human nature. ”"Freedom."

Merlin interjected: "Sure enough, it's the perfect excuse to do bad things, anyway, did you set fire to most of London for freedom?"

”"Yes!"

Lars.

Al.

"You only saw me burn London," said Gul, "but you don't see that the fire I kindled stopped the spread of the plague that threatened to destroy the civilization of the British Isles."

In a sense, I saved England. ”"Typical bandit logic."

Merlin commented, while the old Assassin shrugged his shoulders and asked rhetorically, "A fire that burned down the entire city, killed only five people, but directly saved the lives of millions of people and the legacy of a nation."

Tell me, Merlin, what would you do if you were in that situation with a torch in your hand?

”Merlin didn't answer.It was a question that didn't need to be answered, and if Merlin was there, he would have lit the fire just as well."

Okay, don't talk about these old things."

The old assassin waved his hand, and he said, "In my life, I have indeed killed many people, and in the eyes of ordinary people, I am a butcher and a villain.I don't want to defend myself because I know I'm not a good person.In fact, every Assassin should be mentally prepared for this, after all, what we do is to save by killing. ”"Let's keep the story."

Merlin didn't dwell on the concept.Right and wrong, good and evil, they are extremely opposed many times, and they should indeed be opposites, right is right, wrong is wrong, good is good, evil is evil.Just like what Fury said before when he scolded Merlin, bad things done with good intentions are still bad things.Bad things don't turn into good things just because you want to do good things in the first place.But that's for ordinary people, and for a special profession like Merlin, the boundary between good and evil is not as obvious as it seems on the surface.Of course, if we continue to dwell on this, it will rise to the philosophical level, and the philosophical problems will be left to philosophy.Merlin is here to listen to the story and find a way, not to talk to Lars.

Al.

Gul discusses philosophy."

The origin of the League of Assassins is an organization called the Brotherhood of Assassins."

Lars.

Al.

"And the origins of this organization can be traced back to 450 B.C.," said Gul, "when the Greek world was defending against the Persian Empire, when the Assassins walking in the darkness were gathered for the first time, fighting for their homeland and for the precarious form of civilization. ”"The war ended in victory for the Greek world, but the death of Xerxes was never noticed while the epic victory at Thermopylae was celebrated...

It was the first time that the Assassins had brought peace to the world with their Hidden Blades, and that was the beginning of a legend. ”"Wow" Merlin raised his left hand, the Hidden Blade forged by Holy Silver popped out of the cuff, he put the weapon in front of his eyes, and said to the old assassin, "That's what you said, right?"

”"Yes!"

Lars.

Al.

Gul looked at the silver blade under Merlin's palm, a glint flashed in his eyes, and he said, "You are indeed the heir to the Assassin's Mandate...

The Hidden Blade in your hand is not something that ordinary Assassins can wear, it is the hallmark of the Master. ”"Wait."

Merlin interrupted the old Assassin by saying, "This thing doesn't belong to the Assassins, in fact, it belongs...""

Witcher, I know."

The Master Ninja looked tired, rubbing his forehead and saying in a hoarse voice, "That's a weapon used by demon hunters to hunt aliens, and I know the power of this weapon better than you."

But what you don't know is that Merlin, the first witcher in history, was a member of the Assassin Brotherhood.It was the morale of the beginning of the Middle Ages, and the demonic dynasty established by the Haktara family had an internal fission at that time, causing the aliens to take the initiative to break the rules. ”"In the face of human civilization persecuted by aliens, the assassins hiding in the darkness have once again begun to act.Together with wizards and warlocks, they led to the birth of the first Demon Hunters, and the way the Demon Hunters fought was born out of the legacy of the Assassin Brotherhood, which had been established for nearly 500 years at the time. ”"In a sense, the witchers are also a special faction of the Assassin Brotherhood.""

Is that so?"

Merlin nodded, he did not deny this statement, and it was very foolish to rashly deny a statement of internal logic self-consistency when there was no evidence to support it.He glanced at the old Assassin and said, "I'm curious, where did you know these stories?"

”"I know it from 'her.'"

The old Assassin said calmly, "It was something that I would feel honored for the rest of my life."

You must be curious about 'her' identity, and what I can reveal to you is that 'she' fought with the Master Assassin who wielded the first Hidden Blade. ”"Wait."

Merlin interrupted the old Assassin again, and he asked, "You said that the first Hidden Blade appeared in 450 BC, that is, 'she' has lived for more than 2,400 years?"

”"Yes."

Lars.

Gul whispered, "She is the inheritor, the recorder, the guardian, the observer.She is alive and will continue to live until the moment her divine mission ends.You'll meet her, Merlin, it's meant to be, it's just a matter of time. ”"Keep all your questions about 'her', and one day, she will appear in front of you and answer all these questions for you.""

One last question."

Merlin raised his finger and asked seriously, "What's 'she's name'?"

”The old assassin was silent for a moment, then said, "Kassandra, her name is Kassandra, and she is a...

Demigods. ”"Demigods?

Perseus, Hercules like that?

”Merlin's eyes narrowed, and the old assassin said seriously, "Yes, a real demigod."

Of course, her father was not Zeus, but legend has it that she did meet Hades and Poseidon, and beat them up. ”"Do you really believe it?"

Merlin asked rhetorically, "This story is getting more and more fantastical, so fantastical that it makes me wonder if you have been infected by the power of the Three Palaces Demon. ”"Hehe, if you can accept the existence of the Three Palace Demons."

Lars.

Al.

Gul asked rhetorically, "Then why can't you accept the existence of demigods?"

What's more, if it's not a demigod, do you think an ordinary person can help me get rid of a demon of that level in the third house?

Do you know how strong the Three Houses are at the level of the Hell Monarch?

”"Okay, I won't ask."

Speechless by the old assassin's rhetorical question, Merlin waved his hand decisively, and said to the ninja master, "You go on." ”"The existence of the Assassin Brotherhood has permeated every age of human civilization.""

They are present in every great event you can imagine, from Roman times to the sudden death of Qin Shi Huang, from the Middle Ages to the collapse of the Mongol Empire, from the Italian Renaissance to the American and South American Wars, from the Industrial Revolution to the Second World War...

We've been in hiding, we've never really existed, at least that's how we've been recorded in history. ”The old Assassin described the Order's magnificent history in a brief tone, and said to Merlin: "But an ancient organization has equally old enemies, but our enemies are not bad people in the traditional sense. ”"We defend free will, because freedom allows for the continuous development of wisdom and the growth of the personality of each individual being, which is how we keep the world moving forward.Our adversaries also want the world to be a better place, but they are building a dictatorial world by controlling their free will to gain power. ”"I've heard Talia say that you've wondered why I rejected Hydra's kindness...

In addition to the fact that I know the vicious style of the organization, there is actually an important reason. ”Lars.

Al.

"The Hydra heritage is just as ancient, its origins date back to the 6th century AD and even earlier, and from the moment it was born, it was one of the greatest enemies of the Assassin Brotherhood. ”"At that time, a group of Assassins banded together to banish the original leader of Hydra, but were unable to defeat them completely.Hydra's credo is to stifle the will to freedom, and what they aspire to build is a 'new world' of absolute dictatorship, and Hitler during World War II is only one representative of this dangerous thinking. ”"And the worst thing is that the enemy of the Assassin Brotherhood is not only Hydra.After discovering that they were unable to defeat the Brotherhood on their own, they banded together..."

The old Assassin's tone became muffled: "For 200 years between the 19th and 20th centuries, the Assassin Brotherhood suffered a constant blow, forcing our predecessors to hide in the shadows.The inheritance of the Brotherhood was also severed at that time, and I...

The moment I learned these things from Kassandra and with her help, I was freed from the tragic fate that the Third House had given me, and I joined the Brotherhood...""

That's what I did.""

No matter what I do, for better or for worse, I have never forgotten the oath I made before the name of the Master Assassin.""

We walk in the darkness and serve the light.""

We are ghosts that do not exist, messengers of death that blow the morning light of practice.""

We save disasters with killing, and defend freedom with our Hidden Blades.""

We are assassins...", Lars.

Al.

With a sparkle in his eyes, Gul recited his vows, saying, "I have seen the fall of the Brotherhood, and I have tried to turn the tide, but I have failed."

The power they combine is too great for us to choose to disappear.No one persecuted me, no one begged me, but the Assassin alliance I formed with me has persevered to this day. ”"It's a pity that I can't hold on anymore, Slade sees through my weakness, and he attacks at this time, just to be sure that I can't fight back.""

Indeed, I'm too old to do anything anymore."

The old Assassin said to Merlin: "The Assassin League I have established is the last faction belonging to the Assassin Brotherhood that is still maintaining normal activities. ”"After me, the flames of this last faction will also be extinguished, Talia, Damian, Slade, and even Bruce...

None of them could understand the meaning of this lineage.This does not mean that they are stupid, it can only be said that they have never touched our world, and they cannot imagine the scale of this war that spans history and time. ”"From this day forward, the Assassins will truly be in the dark.Those evils will think they won, but they will never really win!

”"Merlin...

I have entrusted the League of Assassins to my loved ones, and I will entrust you with this responsibility and legacy. ”He said to Merlin, "Take this inheritance, accept your destiny, and become a member of the Brotherhood...

Rise again with it. ”"In return, I'll tell you how to get rid of the third house
