265. Creed Assassin
The dark walker's pupils shrank slightly when he heard Sean's words.
Although the expression on his face did not fluctuate in the slightest, and the subtle changes in his eyes quickly recovered, the strangeness of this moment was easily captured by Sean, which convinced Sean that the person in front of him was definitely a creed-level assassin.
Just like the special honor of the Sword Master, the Sword Emperor, the Sword Emperor for the swordsman, and the Horse Warrior for the knight.
Creed Assassin is the supreme honor for all Assassins.
Unlike Juggernauts, Sword Emperors, and Warriors, which do not have any special markers, Creed Assassin has two markers that are very obvious.
Alliance pins and bracer blades.
Both emblems were issued by the League of Assassins.
As an intelligence assassination organization that even surpasses the Thieves' Guild and Death Thorn in the entire Miracle Continent, the Assassin Alliance can be said to be the oldest, most mysterious and most powerful assassin organization in the entire Miracle Continent, and it is the holy place in the hearts of all Assassins. However, it is very strange that although many Assassins are aware of such an organization, no one has ever seen anyone from this organization, and they do not even know how to join the Assassin Alliance.
But the only thing that knows the truth is only one rumor.
"The highest rating in the League of Assassins is Creed Assassin."
Therefore, the Creed Assassin has become the supreme honor in the Assassin circle.
But what kind of Assassin is a Creed Assassin? No one knows this.
Sean would know this, because at that time, in the game, there was a rogue player in his guild, Void Wings, who had successfully joined the Assassin League, and he was the only player in the entire game who successfully joined the Assassin League. And everything Sean knows about this organization is obtained from this player.
So he knew that Creed-level assassins had two identities. Indispensable.
In the same way, he also knew that the so-called Creed Assassin was only a recognition of the various skills he had mastered as an Assassin, and not that he wanted to defeat an invincible opponent like a swordsman. So even if it's just a high-ranking Silver Shadow Assassin, it's still possible to become a Creed Assassin.
Of course, if you can get this honor from the League of Assassins, then it is basically equivalent to being invincible at the same level. After all, an assassin with grandmaster-level killing skills is not something anyone would want to provoke, because such an existence is in the right circumstances. They can easily assassinate those who are stronger than them - just like Sean is not afraid of any inferior golden powerhouse after mastering Requiem.
Thinking of this, Sean couldn't help but feel a headache.
Who could bring in a Creed-level Assassin? According to Sean's knowledge, League of Assassins only officially appeared in the game after the fourth expansion update. But the current era, let alone the fourth expansion update. Even the era when the first expansion started has not yet arrived, so how could you come across a Creed Assassin here?
This is not scientific!
Compared to Sean's shock. The young man's heart was also shocked.
While the Alliance Pin and Bracer Hidden Blade are indeed the League's reward for those excellent Assassins who receive the Creed rating. But he had been wearing these two pieces of equipment that he was very proud of for several years, and he had never been recognized by any of the 1,000 enemies he had slain in the assassination of 800 enemies. Even if it's Domingo. Hasting, the employer of this mission, had several business contacts with him, and he was completely unaware of his identity and origin.
This Sean in front of you. Connery, who the hell is it?
Not only is it known about the existence of the Assassin Alliance. Even his status symbol in the League of Assassins is clear.
In the bright conference room, neither Sean nor the young man acted rashly for a while. The two confronted each other like this, looking at each other, as if they wanted to see through each other completely. However, compared to Sean's understanding of the actual combat power of the man in front of him, the other party only knows a little about Sean, for example, he is the lord of the current Panda Lord, and he is also the pioneer knight of the Marquis of Tonys Fortress, with good personal strength and superb swordsmanship.
As for the rest, the young man's eyes darkened, and he didn't know anything.
"Who the hell are you?" After a long silence, the young man finally couldn't help but speak.
"You're here to kill me, but you don't know who I am?" The sequelae of Sean's head attack did not seem to have been completely resolved, and he could not realize the true meaning of the young man's words, but instead looked dumbfounded.
Hearing Sean's words, the young man's brows furrowed slightly.
According to intelligence information, this lord should be a very shrewd person, right, but judging from the current situation, the other party seems to be a little sluggish? It's just that Sean's curiosity still has the upper hand in the young man's heart after all, so he still opened his mouth to explain: "I mean, why do you know my identity?" ”
"Alliance pins and bracer Hidden Blades." Sean pointed to the pins on the young man's body and the bracer blades on both hands, and said a little strangely, "Aren't these two things already a good proof of your identity?" ”
"Ordinary people...... No. The young man spoke in a deep voice, but as if he felt that the weight of the word "ordinary person" was too light, or perhaps out of some kind of pride, he immediately changed his tone and said again: "Even the famous assassins in those circles may not know these things about me. But you can see the origin of these things at a glance, and even know my identity clearly, who is Your Excellency? ”
Hearing the young man's words, Sean finally realized that he had made another mistake: that is, in this world, the League of Assassins is a legendary existence, and many people only know its name, so he definitely doesn't know much about the League of Assassins. Although the highest praise of the Zhilun Dao Assassin League is the Creed Assassin, no one knows how to distinguish the Creed Assassin.
And it will be at least another ten years before the Assassin League finally officially appears in front of the world's semi-public appearance.
In this way, Sean's situation is a bit special.
It's just that, after thinking about it, Sean found himself in the current situation. It should be more advantageous.
"You don't need to know who I am." Sean's brows furrowed, deliberately pretending to be serious, "But I'd like to know Lu Dao, why didn't you go to find the clues of the Eden Golden Apple, but ran here to try to assassinate me?" ”
Hearing Sean's words, the young man was suddenly startled, and a little horror appeared on his face: "For...... What will you know for what you will know......"
"I know a lot about the Tao." Sean snorted coldly, "Judging by your appearance, it's obvious that assassinating me wasn't the Alliance's idea, so let's put it this way." You have completely violated the purpose of the Alliance. …… Can you still be considered an Alliance Creed Assassin? If you let your mentor know the truth, guess what will happen to you? ”
When the young man heard this, he suddenly reacted that he had lost his temper. But what made him even more frightened was that. Sean knew the Assassins League very well, even the purpose of the Alliance and the Golden Apple of Eden. These are the core secrets of the Alliance. Generally, only after becoming a Creed Assassin does you have the right to know some of the relevant content of the Dao.
Even if it was him, he only knew that the Golden Apple of Eden was a very old and powerful artifact, and that the League of Assassins had been searching for it since its inception, but it had been to no avail. Other than that, he didn't know anything about the efficacy of this artifact and other content information. You can see Sean's expression. Obviously, there is obviously more content than him, and this naturally means that Sean is likely to be a core and important member of the alliance.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that his reasoning must be correct.
Because of the average high-ranking silver master. Even the kind of peak master who stepped into the Golden Realm with only one step away from being able to survive the siege of six shadow assassins would never be unscathed. However, Sean was not only unharmed from the fight with the six shadow assassins just now, he even knew very well the attack methods of these shadow assassins, and this would make the young man feel more and more that the killing skills that Sean had just shown were very similar to the techniques taught by the Assassin Alliance, and even more exquisite and excellent.
This must be an Assassin Mentor!
The thought that he was actually looking for trouble with an Assassin Mentor made the young man feel a big head.
"It was all a misunderstanding." The young man laughed dryly.
"Misunderstanding?" Sean was completely unforgiving, "Then this misunderstanding seems to be a bit big." ”
"I think so too." The young man nodded.
He began to think that he had clearly thought about leaving when he entered the door tonight, but why didn't he leave in the end, and he had to follow the six shadow assassins to trouble Sean. And on a deeper look, he even felt that he shouldn't have accepted Domingo's commission in the first place, although the reward was indeed good, but he should have known it a long time ago, and the higher the reward, the more difficult the target.
Come to think of it, it's all the fault of money!
"I have only one question."
Sean glanced at the other party, he felt that it was indeed a good thing to be able to avoid the battle, after all, in the face of a Creed Assassin of the Assassin Alliance, it was not easy to kill the other party, even if he had such a stunt as Requiem and Gollum, but as long as the other party kept his distance, he had no chance to attack at all.
Of course, the reason why Sean really didn't want to kill the other party was that every Creed Assassin who could move freely on the continent was tasked with finding the Golden Apple of Eden, so everyone actually had a fixed area of responsibility, and the people they came into contact with would also report to the Alliance. If this young man is killed here, then it is very likely to attract the attention of the League of Assassins, and then the League of Assassins will send someone to take revenge, which is the trouble that Sean does not want to provoke.
So after thinking about it, Sean decided to change his mind: "As long as you answer me this question, then I will treat you as if you didn't show up tonight." ”
"Your Excellency, please speak." The young man hesitated slightly, then nodded, "But I can't guarantee that my answer will satisfy you. ”
"I know it." Sean nodded, "My question is simple, who asked you to assassinate me?" ”
"This ......" (To be continued......
