" Sloan is the one who betrayed the Brotherhood." Carlos did not deny that he had betrayed the Brotherhood. Instead, he used a clever verbal technique to avoid the black assassin's question." He forged the assassination list!”
"This is impossible! The bearded man retorted," That's fate. Sloan would never do that.
"He cracked the code and took control of the loom. He also forged a list of people he wanted to deal with those who needed to be assassinated, earning huge profits from it!”
" He's using us," Carlos said." He's turning the assassins of the Brotherhood into killers and tools for his own benefit!”
"That's why Fox and I wanted to get an explanation from him. You guys were deceived by him!”
"Do you have evidence?" The bearded man hesitated for a moment before asking.
" After I noticed this, I sneaked into the secret room where the Loom was and got the answer from it," Carlos replied." The Loom gave me the answer. Sloan's name was written on it!”
"I need to see more evidence.”
Most of the assassins who saw Carlos fell into this cycle. After seeing the password that Carlos had analyzed on the piece of cloth, their stance was completely shaken.
Coupled with Li Liang's righteous persuasion of the Holy Knights (threat of force high bonus commission no need to hide), these assassins all expressed that if Sloan really betrayed the Brotherhood, they would immediately join the Holy Knights!
It had to be said that Sloan's decision to send most of the Assassins to cause trouble for Fox was very far-sighted.
Of course, this was a real battle, not a training game. There were also some assassins who would rather die than submit. Therefore, a large portion of the assassins had fallen to Li Liang and the others.
Wesley's hand finally touched the fresh snow.
"What are you thinking about?"
At night, on the roof of the hotel where Li Liang and the others were staying. Fox came to Wesley's side. Normally, Wesley would be unable to take his eyes off Molly's figure, but at this moment, Wesley couldn't take his eyes off her.
"They didn't deserve to die." Wesley looked at the distant lights and felt a little melancholic." They were just deceived, weren't they?”
" Yes, they are the most loyal believers of fate." Fawkes sat down next to Wesley." But they did something wrong.”
"Just because of this?" Wesley lowered his head and looked at his hands.
His hands were very clean, but Wesley knew that just a few hours ago, they had been stained with the fresh snow of several different lifeforms.
" Faith is a very serious matter," Fox said." Betrayal is not allowed.”
"What about you?" Wesley asked," What will you do after this matter is over?”
" What would I do?" Fawkes thought for a moment." If I betrayed fate, then…" I will do what I should do."
"Zisa?" Wesley asked.
"Maybe," Fawkes said, standing up.”
" Rest early. Tomorrow, we'll be meeting Sloan to confront him." Fox waved his hand." Good night, Greenboy."”
"…Wesley remained silent.
He had indeed fallen in love with Fox because of his looks, and later on, because of Fox's performance. But now, he did not know how to stop what was about to happen because of his faith in Fox.
With what identity and what reason? Wesley's heart was in a mess.
"Let's take a look at a young man who is trapped by love.”
At this moment, a voice sounded behind Wesley." Wesley, are you very confused?”
"Mr. Li?" Wesley turned around and saw Li Liang. He asked in surprise," When did you come up?”
"Probably when Miss Fox first came upstairs? Li Liang said," My hearing is better, and I like to watch a good show, so-"
"I thought I would be able to see something interesting. Li Liang waved the camera in his hand.
... Wesley was speechless.
.....
Did he have to be so straightforward!
Also, wasn't it too much to take pictures with a camera?
"Forget it. Although I didn't manage to get it, it's not a big problem.”
Li Liang waved his hand again, and the camera disappeared into thin air. Do you want to talk? Since I'm in a good mood, I can give you some pointers.”
Wesley was already used to Li Liang's ability to make the camera disappear. Li Liang often played this kind of magic-like trick in front of them, but when Wesley asked, Li Liang wouldn't answer how he did it, so he could only treat it as magic.
It couldn't be magic, right?
He had seen a lot of it, so he was naturally used to it.
" That's right." Wesley hesitated for a moment, then said," Fox, about her…
"Regarding what Miss Fox said, there is one thing that I agree with. Faith is a very serious matter.”
Li Liang sat on the edge of the roof and looked down at the heavy traffic below." But Wesley, there's nothing that can't be changed, not even faith.”
"What is it? Wesley didn't understand.
" Beliefs can be changed based on certain things or people," Li Liang said." Your father was like that. He used to be an assassin master who firmly believed in fate, but you made him give up his faith.”
" Right now, he is a reserve Holy Knight. He no longer believes in fate, but in protecting Order. For you, Wesley.”
"Perhaps, there are some reasons for his decision. But believe me, if it wasn't for you, your father would never have given up on the Assassin Brotherhood. Join the Holy Knights."
" So, if you want your beloved Miss Fox to change her mind, you just need to find someone or something important enough to influence her.”
"You can think of the rest yourself. Goodbye, Wesley. There's still a big battle tomorrow!”
Watching Wesley leave, Li Liang, who was in a good mood, started humming a tune.
Being the matchmaker, being the senior, and being halfway through the conversation, these things combined would give people an inexplicable sense of comfort.
"Hello, how can I help you?”
"There's a gunfight somewhere, lots of gunshots!”
"May I know the address?"
" Brighton-Williams-City Viaduct Line 30-31, near Station 278. Surrounding the East River, opposite is the Brighton-Navy Yard.”
"Alright, sir. Please find a safe place to hide and wait...
The police station operator recorded the information according to the procedure and handed it to the police officer.
"This place
However, to the operator's surprise, after the police officer saw the address, he put down the note." Alright, you can go back now. Just let it be a false alarm."
"What?" The operator was stunned." Why?"
" Someone above us has spoken," the police officer said in a low voice." If there is a gunfight in that area during this period of time, just ignore it and don't care."”
The operator had no choice but to return to his post.
He was just an operator. What could he do?
Moreover, it was not like he had not experienced such a thing before.
"I'm sorry, sir. After verification, we found that there was no danger at the location you mentioned. It was a false alarm. Since this is your first offense, we choose not to pursue the matter. This call ends here.”
"Hey, hey, I'm serious!”The call ended.
The location of the gunfight was the headquarters of the Assassin Brotherhood.
At this moment, the gunshots outside had gone through a sudden change from dense to sparse. Sloan knew that the sparse gunshots didn't mean that the enemy was about to be eliminated. It was another result.
The enemy was about to wipe out all of his men! Through the surveillance, Sloan also saw that not only Fox, but even Cross Carlos had betrayed the Brotherhood!
They also brought along some of the Brotherhood's original assassins. Those people had been instigated to defect!
“**!”Sloan cursed.
Before this, he had already made a phone call and contacted the officials he knew.
However, the officials who had been respectful to Sloan in the past didn't even pick up his phone this time! Sloan understood that his connections had lost their effectiveness!
"They must have informed the higher-ups in advance, those damn politicians.”
Sloan's face was gloomy. This time, he didn't hesitate. He took out his phone and dialed the number that he hadn't dialed in decades.
At the same time, Sloan walked into the basement and began to evacuate through the secret passage he had left behind.
In a camp in the Sahara Desert.
A servant brought a phone to the man who was sitting on the main seat with his eyes closed in deep thought.
The man opened his eyes and took the phone. When he saw the name on it, a contemptuous smile appeared on his face, but he still pressed the answer button.
"Esteemed Assassin Master, the leader of the Brotherhood, actually took the initiative to call me. I'm really flattered."
"The Temple Knights are back." Sloan didn't care about the ridicule from the Elder on the other end of the phone. He went straight to the point.
Before this, Sloan was still hoping that he would get lucky.
He did not know how many Holy Knights there were, nor did he know how terrifying their strength was.
Thus, Sloan only ordered his subordinates who wouldn't betray him to make preparations. At the same time, he also ordered some assassins who would be difficult to convince to defect to find trouble with Fox and test the strength of the Holy Knights.
Only a few people brought back pitifully little information. The other party was very powerful.
He didn't even know how many people there were.
After dealing with this, everyone came to the loom. The fact that the loom had no power revealed that Li Liang was a foreign visitor.
