Chapter Eight Hundred and Sixty Seventh a Lot of Doubts

Yes, the ceiling of a modern building.

A blonde girl in a white coat came over with some concern and asked, "Are you alright?"

Lao Song sat up abruptly, like a drowning man, breathing in the fresh air with big mouthfuls.

To be precise, it was not Lao Song, but another person.

At the moment when the picture appeared, Lao Song really had the illusion of "has he passed through", because everything around is completely modern scenes, and the accuracy of the scenes is very high.

However, as he sat up, the vision of the game changed, and Lao Song finally understood what was going on.

Desmond, who was wearing a white coat, sat up from the animus machine. Obviously, Lao Song was the one who manipulated it before.

However, it is clearly "Assassin's Creed", why did it travel to modern times? This is a question that makes Lao Song extremely puzzling.

But soon, the plot was explained clearly.

The character Lao Song played in the game was called Desmond, and the two white coats in front of him belonged to Abstergo, who kidnapped Desmond and was conducting an experiment.

On the surface, Desmond is just a bartender, but in fact, he has the blood of an assassin. These white coats need to use the genetic information on Desmond to travel back to the past, travel back to his ancestors, and find some information.

To be precise, it is not a time-travel, but a reproduction of the memories of the ancestors. The doctor in a white coat also specially explained to Lao Song the principle of animus, which is to read genetic memory.

However, most of the ancestor's memory is locked, and Desmond is kicked out of this memory when he enters "not ready". Therefore, Desmond can only enter from a relatively stable memory first, and by constantly achieving synchronization, he can unlock new memories and obtain the information he wants.

Obviously, Desmond was kidnapped. He was just an ordinary person. Even if he wanted to escape, he couldn't do anything, so he could only enter the animus obediently.

After this, there is a teaching session, that is, the teaching of "conscious control system".

Desmond entered the animus to become the assassin in white, and then learned assassin skills, including sneaking, assassinating, fighting, hiding, mixing into crowds, and more.

All the teaching is carried out in the interface of animus. Although this kind of teaching looks blunt, after adding the packaging of animus, it is unexpectedly in line with the plot setting. After all, Desmond's current state is very similar to that of Lao Song, both of whom are "playing games".

"So that's the case, no wonder there is a modern person in the promotional CG. It should be the protagonist, right?"

"Make a modern plot story for animus? Pay attention."

"This also explains the previous bugs. Is it really a deliberate effect because of the unstable condition of animus?"

"It's like a two-story story, first playing Desmond, then Desmond playing the ancient assassin? Decent."

Because Lao Song played "Assassin's Creed: Origins" first, and the version produced by Chen Mo has no modern plot for the time being, so after seeing the modern plot in "Assassin's Creed: Revelation", Lao Song's first reaction was still a little confused. force.

But if you think about it carefully, this actually makes sense. The most obvious advantage is that some basic settings of the game are naturally explained, such as what an animus is, how it works, synchronization rate, consciousness operation guidelines, and so on.

After completing the synchronization and teaching the consciousness control system, Desmond entered the memory of his ancestors again, and Lao Song was equivalent to experiencing this memory as Desmond.

This is an assassin named Altaïr, the white-robed assassin who appeared in the promotional CG.

In one of the earliest operations in the memory timeline, Altaïr was in action with two other Assassins, but his actions were questioned by the other Assassin for exposing himself to the Temple by killing an innocent man in front of the knight.

Altaïr has been emphasizing the Assassin's Creed: nothing is true and everything is allowed, but another Assassin also retorted: Assassins can't kill innocent people, expose themselves, and endanger the Brotherhood, but apparently Altaïr didn't listen. Do not go in.

In the end, the operation failed because of Altaïr's recklessness. Not only that, the Templars also chased after Masyaf, the headquarters of the Assassin Order, and the two sides started a melee. Although the Assassins were victorious, the Assassin Mentor could not tolerate Altaïr's behavior and stabbed him with a dagger.

This is the first chapter of the ancient plot, and it is also equivalent to a teaching chapter.

In addition to making players familiar with the operation, the opening scene directly raises a key question.

What exactly is Assassin's Creed?

In fact, the answer was already given in the publicity CG, that is, "everything is false, everything is allowed". But since anything can be done, why was the mentor so angry when Altaïr killed the innocent old man?

Obviously, many players have the same misunderstanding as Altaïr when they hear the phrase "everything is false and everything is allowed" for the first time, thinking that the rule of thumb for assassins is that they can do whatever they want.

But in the first act, the plot directly denies this idea, which is equivalent to using the actual actions of the characters in the plot to prove the error of this view.

After this, the modern plot and the ancient plot move forward alternately.

Desmond finds himself in what appears to be a conspiracy, he was originally a member of the modern-day Assassin Order, living on a "farm", but he got tired of this isolation and escaped, until because of the motorcycle The driver's license was found by Abstergo.

Desmond felt that all this was unreasonable. Abstergo was obviously just a pharmaceutical company. How could he have found him with his motorcycle driver's license and kidnapped him?

Obviously, this Abstergo company is definitely not as simple as it seems.

...

Altaïr is not dead, his mentor gave him a chance to be born again.

Altaïr was puzzled and asked, "Isn't the Assassin's Creed not everything false and everything allowed?"

The tutor scolded: "You don't understand the true meaning of this sentence, child! It does not give you the power to act at will, it is a kind of knowledge, a guide to reason."

The mentor stripped Altaïr of his identity and equipment, made him rejoin the Assassin Order as a rookie, and started from scratch.

In Masyaf, Altaïr was tasked with investigating the betrayers, and after completing the task, the Assassin Mentor handed him a list of nine names, all of which belonged to the Templars. Altaïr must assassinate the nine to complete the mentor's mission.

Lao Song did not rush to advance the plot, but first took a good look at the scenery in Masyaf.

The room where the tutor is located, the high platform of the Leap of Faith, the surrounding villages...

Masyaf still continues the high level in "Assassin's Creed: Origins". In the village at the foot of the mountain, people are busy with their own affairs, and the assassins also leave Masyaf and go to various places to perform tasks.

Everything is so real, like real history.

Lao Song was a little puzzled. Obviously, the story in the plot CG should have happened in Masyaf. The high platform from which the middle-aged assassin jumped was obviously where Altaïr made his leap of faith.

However, at that time, why was Masyaf occupied by a group of Templars?

Or, does this plot really take place on a different timeline, as some people say? 8) For more wonderful novels, welcome to visit our school
