Cassandra was right.

Originally based on the main plot of the "Assassin's Creed Syndicate" game, the Frye siblings would assassinate Starry's men one by one and boil frogs in warm water to weaken the Templars to a minimum before launching the final blow.

, liberating London from the Templars.

In that way, the smooth transition of power will not affect the peace of London.

The reason why London is now in chaos is largely due to the fact that Lu Qi killed Starry, the current grand master of the British branch of the Templars, in advance in the treasure house.

The British Chapter of the Templars, who lost their leader, did not hesitate to involve all walks of life and people from all walks of life in London into the dispute in order to fight for power.

In short, this is Lu Qi's fault.

Therefore, Cassandra's statement was not unreasonable.

The appearance of Lu Qi made things develop in an unpredictable direction and made the future more unknown.

This is also the reason why Cassandra came to the door in person...

Looking at Cassandra's firm eyes, Lu Qi knew that no matter what he said, he could not change her mind.

"In other words, the closure you are talking about refers to me, right?"

"Yes. In order to maintain the balance of this world, I must do this!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the kerosene lamp in Cassandra's hand suddenly shone with golden light and turned into a golden scepter as tall as a person.

Two snakes wrap around the staff, and the top of the staff is a spear blade surrounded by angel wings, which is full of sacredness.

Lu Qi recognized this strange-looking scepter at a glance. It was the legendary artifact of Eden - the Staff of Hermes!

Cassandra, who was born in the ancient Greek era, relied on the divine power contained in the Staff of Hermes to survive for more than two thousand years.

For more than two thousand years, Cassandra has been an "observer", silently maintaining the delicate balance between "order" and "chaos".

Whenever the Templars gained the upper hand, she would come to the aid of the Assassins, and vice versa.

Lu Qi was not the first person to destroy the balance and died at her hands, nor would he be the last...

Looking at Cassandra taking out the artifact, Lu Qi didn't hesitate at all. With a solemn expression, he quickly pulled out two revolvers!

The next second, gunshots like exploding beans pierced the night sky.

However, something happened that made him feel helpless.

Cassandra waved her hand casually, and a wall of light emitting dazzling light appeared in front of her out of thin air.

The fired bullet hit the wall of light, immediately lost kinetic energy and fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Lu Qi didn't show the slightest bit of surprise, but suddenly dwarfed his body and started to move quickly.

He did not rush towards Cassandra, but circled around.

While running around the opponent, he replaced two pistols with full ammunition and continued to shoot at Cassandra.

However, for Cassandra, who is a demigod and holds an artifact, this does not pose any threat at all.

That wall of light seemed to have spirituality. It had already anticipated Lu Qi's next attack trajectory, and always came to Cassandra in advance to block the incoming bullets for her.

Realizing that this was of no use, Lu Qi had fully understood the opponent's combat power and that he could not match him no matter what.

There is no point in fighting like this.

If I can't beat you, can't I run away?!

Thinking of this, Lu Qi made a quick decision, raised his left hand, and pointed the rope dart launcher under his hidden sword at the roof of the building.

However, before the rope dart could be fired, Cassandra's voice came from behind Lu Qi:

"You can't escape..."

The next second, Lu Qi's expression changed suddenly, and he had no time to dodge. He only felt a sharp pain that reached deep into his soul and came from his chest.

The overwhelming pain made him shout subconsciously:

"ah!"

When he looked down with all his strength, he only saw half of the sharp spear blade, piercing the left side of his chest.

In an instant, Lu Qi felt weak in his limbs, his eyes were dizzy, and his life force poured out like a rushing waterfall.

Even a bug skill like [Breathing and Recovering Blood] cannot recover such a fatal injury.

Hearing only a "bang", Lu Qi's consciousness gradually became blurred. His knees softened and he knelt down on the ground.

Seeing this, Cassandra pulled out the scepter, hugged Lu Qi's body, and slowly lowered it to the ground.

Holding Lu Qi's hand tightly, Cassandra looked down at the pale Lu Qi, her eyes filled with sadness and apology, and whispered:

"I can only say that I am very sorry. This is my mission. Please forgive me..."

Cassandra's words were ethereal and distant, as if they came from another world.

Trying to keep his eyes open, Lu Qi looked up at the bright moon in the sky, with only one thought left in his mind:

Is that the end of it...

Although the mysterious black shadow on the screen once warned him very seriously not to die in the game world, it did not stop Lu Qi from continuing to imagine what would happen if he died in the game world.

However, when death really came to his door, he realized that he really didn't want to know the answer to that question.

Because the feeling of death is really uncomfortable...

It was like his consciousness was slowly being sucked into an endless black hole, unable to struggle, and he could only passively accept it all.

I don’t know if I will die completely after I die, or if I will forget everything, return to the real world, and live my original life...

With the last complicated thought, Lu Qi slowly closed his eyes...

As the last trace of vitality in his body disappeared, Lu Qi's body suddenly seemed to be emptied, turning into countless light spots and slowly disappearing.

Cassandra, who witnessed all this, couldn't help but pursed her lips and murmured:

"Sure enough, you don't belong to this world..."

...

After Lu Qi "disappeared", Yiwei and others thought that Lu Qi was killed by the Templars, and they felt unbelievable for a time.

Even without Lu Qi as a powerful helper, the Frye brothers, with the help of Green, Ebelin and others, successively assassinated the top leaders of the British branch of the Templars and successfully liberated London.

The Nighthawks also replaced the Thugs and became a dominant underground gang in London.

It was not until the end that they learned that Lu Qi had not died at the hands of the Templars, but had disappeared.

After that, the Frye brothers and Green rebuilt the London Assassin Brotherhood together, and recorded Lu Qi's name in the historical notebooks of the Assassin organization and the Nighthawk Gang.

London spent a relatively peaceful period, during which they did not give up looking for any clues about Lu Qi.

As for the Woodburn brothers, they also joined the Assassin Brotherhood and became Assassin apprentices under the recommendation of the Frye sisters.

Ten years later, Connor, who had become a master assassin, embarked on a journey to the far east in order to find Lu Qi.
