Chapter 865 Chapter 864-everything is empty, everything is permitted
The middle-aged Assassin's battle continued.
The assassin in white walked into the crowd of Holy Knights as if there was no one else around.
However, he was like an illusion, passing through the bodies of the Holy Knights without even causing any ripples.
The Paladins also turned a blind eye to him. They were still growling and roaring as they rushed towards the middle-aged assassin who was being surrounded.
However, just as the white-robed assassin walked past the middle-aged assassin ...
The middle-aged assassin seemed to have seen him.
The middle-aged Assassin's line of sight was hidden by the hood, but from his brief pause and slightly puzzled expression, he clearly saw the White figure.
He was puzzled.
Confusion.
At this moment, a voice seemed to ring in his ears.
Many assassins and many voices said this together.
"When others blindly pursue the truth, remember to be angry."
"All things are illusory."
"When others are bound by morality or the law, remember to take a break."
"Everything is permitted."
"We walk in the darkness."
"But bow to the light."
"We are ..."
"Assassin!"
This moment of hesitation caused a fatal flaw to appear in the middle-aged Assassin's defense. The Holy Knight's heavy sword just happened to cut at the weak point of his hidden blade.
Ding! Ding!
With a crisp sound, the hidden blade broke.
The middle-aged assassin lost his balance and fell to the ground. The Holy Knights immediately swarmed forward, and Lin Li's spear surrounded the middle-aged assassin.
The white-robed assassin had completely disappeared.
The middle-aged assassin was brought to the high platform by the Holy Knights, and the ferocious-looking bald commander tied a noose around his neck.
However, at this moment, the middle-aged assassin saw the figure of the white-robed assassin again.
They were on different wooden platforms, but their movements were surprisingly consistent.
The Holy Knight also looked in the direction of the assassin in white, but there was nothing there.
The moment the noose tightened, the middle-aged assassin turned around!
His elbow struck the right side of the commander's face, and then he threw the rope and wrapped it around the commander's neck.
He leaped!
"Squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak ..."
The noose tightened, accompanied by a teeth-numbing sound. However, the noose did not bind the middle-aged assassin, but the commander of the Holy Knights on the wooden platform.
The guards at the side quickly cut off the rope to save their commander, but the middle-aged assassin had already floated down and regained his freedom.
The middle-aged assassin stood up, put on his hood calmly, and walked toward the camera.
The screen turned black, and a huge logo appeared on it.
It was Assassin's Creed!
……
……
This promotional video immediately triggered a heated discussion among the players!
A very important reason was that the video was too long. It was more than five minutes long.
Other games 'promotional videos were basically one to three minutes long. After all, the CG belonged to the category of "concentration is the essence." It was good enough as long as it was enough. If it was too long, it might seem like a drag.
However, the five-minute cinematic trailer of Assassin's Creed didn't seem to drag the players out because the content was too rich.
However, many players were puzzled. What did this CG mean?
"Damn, the main character is so handsome! I think he's more handsome than Bayek!"
"Yeah, Lord Myna's should be considered a Berserker, right? This is the real assassin, killing one person in ten steps, not leaving a trace for a thousand miles, leaving after the matter, hiding the merit and fame!"
"Appearing and disappearing like a ghost, killing in one shot. Wow, he's so cool!"
"But I'm confused by the plot. What does this mean?"
"That's right, the white-robed assassin even killed someone at the start. How did it become an illusion? Is he a real person or not?"
"Poor handsome uncle behind him ..."
"Does Assassin's Creed have two main characters? It can be switched freely?"
"That's possible. Is there a cooperation model?"
"...You guys are thinking too much. Why do I feel like these two people live in different times?"
"And the first part was so cool. He kept switching between modern and ancient, reality and virtual. It was so cool."
"I feel that this real-life plot is very abrupt and redundant. It's clearly an ancient story, so it's strange to cut in like this."
"This trailer is so long, but I still don't understand what the story is ..."
Many players were a little dumbfounded. From the content of the promotional video, the young assassin in white and the middle-aged assassin had a lot of scenes, but they were clearly two different people.
Many people speculated that this time, it was a double protagonist mode.
But from all the signs, the white-robed assassin that the middle-aged assassin saw was an illusion. Judging from their clothing and the surrounding environment, they did not seem to be from the same era.
Moreover, it was the first time that modern elements were added to the CG of Assassin's Creed, which confused many people.
However, this time, the cinematics finally brought up the game's theme: Assassin's Creed.
The CG mentioned the so-called Creed in the form of a narration: "All things are illusory, everything is permitted."
It was just that he didn't give much explanation on what this sentence meant.
But no matter what, this CG was cool enough, and that was enough!
Although the Egypt style in Assassin's Creed: origin added a lot of points, it had to be admitted that in the eyes of many players, Bayek was not a handsome protagonist.
On the contrary, the two protagonists in this cinematic were extremely "handsome."
They didn't have Bayek's longbows, blunt weapons, Spears, or other complicated weapons. They only had hidden blades. However, the feeling of fighting in such close combat was very befitting of an Assassin's identity. There was a kind of elegant beauty of dancing on the tip of a blade, which many players were intoxicated with.
Many players expressed that they would buy, buy, buy, and not buy!
Being handsome was a matter of life. Just for this outfit, she decisively bought it!
……
In fact, there wasn't only one promotional video this time. Instead, it was a combination of three promotional videos, and they were taken from Assassin's Creed: Identity, Assassin's Creed 1, and Assassin's Creed: The book of Revelation even had an introduction to the 'Creed' in it.
The main characters of the promotional film were not one person, but three: Desmond, Altair, and Ezio.
Of course, the main character in the trailer wasn't Desmond, but an ordinary player. However, his character was very similar to Desmond 's, so Chen Mo took the three cinematics and combined them together to introduce the new game content of Assassin's Creed.
The plot of this CG was deliberately blurred to create a kind of suspense for the players to guess.
Through Altair's image in white, she had successfully created the images of the modern protagonist Desmond and Assassin's Creed: Together, Ezio from the book of Revelation created a brand new promotional CG tailored for the new content of Assassin's Creed.
It didn't matter if the players couldn't understand it now. After they finished the plot of Altair and Ezio, they would come back to this cinematic and be enlightened.
