Chapter 156 Wise Choice
With the [Free Running] skill, Rorschach suddenly felt that he had a lot of basic skills about climbing and parkour in his mind.

The difficulty of climbing was immediately reduced a lot.

Next, whether it was climbing and jumping between platforms, or jumping from a high place into a bottomless pool, Rorschach gradually overcame his inner fear, and his skills became more and more proficient.

With a "poof", the drenched Rorschach emerged from a piece of water.

What came into view was a vast underground cave.

Next to it, there is a waterfall that makes a "rumbling" sound.

And the most eye-catching thing is naturally the ancient and mysterious Mayan temple built on the water in front of you!
Such a scene of uncanny workmanship in nature reminded Rorschach of a certain female adventurer and her half-brother.

That's right, it's you, Laura and Drake!

These two risked (demolition) (move) home, often mixed in this kind of ancient ruins, this kind of scene should be no surprise.

I hope this temple will not be like the place they have been to...

Edward, who had just come out of the water, was also obviously attracted by the scene in front of him, his eyes shone with surprise and anticipation:

"It took us so much effort. There should be treasures in front of us, which can make our trip worthwhile."

"Whether it's a treasure or not depends on you."

"Why do you say that?"

"The things inside may frighten you a lot. I think you'd better be mentally prepared."

Hearing this, Edward just smiled contemptuously, "I'm not afraid."

Kidd was not surprised by Edward's strong confidence.

Edward was such a man.

While wringing out the accumulated water on his clothes, he turned his head to look at Rorschach, who just cast his gaze and just shrugged, ""

Rorschach had known for a long time that what they were about to see was an enshrined stone head of a saint.

He even knows much more about the entire world of assassins than anyone else in this world!
So, what else could scare him?

"If that's the case, then let's go!"

As soon as the words fell, Kidd walked forward first.

Following a path made up of irregular stone piers, the three of them came to the temple.

With both hands firmly grasping the gaps and protrusions on the wall of the temple, the three of them climbed to the top of the temple one after another.

Walking up the two symmetrical stairs, the three of them saw another stone door carved with huge Mayan patterns.

There is a Mayan stone pillar on each side of the door, and several stone piers that seem to be placed randomly.

On the floor, however, it is composed of red, green, and blue stone bricks, which are rotated through the central turning lever.

Another organ puzzle!
However, Rorschach, who has played the game, naturally knows how to solve this puzzle.

It is nothing more than putting the stone piers of different colors and patterns through the mechanism rotating rod in the center of the floor, and trying to put them into the corresponding rotating ring depressions.

With his cleverness and ingenuity, the puzzle was solved.

Accompanied by the sound of mechanism gears turning, the stone wall blocking them receded to both sides one by one.

And a stone head in the middle of the stone wall, like a nesting doll, faded away layer by layer, and finally only a lifelike male head remained.

And the appearance of this man is exactly the same as the saint that Rorschach and Edward met in Havana!
Especially the pair of different pupils, one yellow and one blue, are even more difficult to imitate.

Even though he was prepared, Edward couldn't help sighing the moment he saw the stone statue:
"Oh my god! It's him, that saint! But this thing has at least a hundred years of history..."

Standing in front of the stone statue, Kidd asked: "Even longer... Are you sure that's what his eyes look like?"

Edward nodded, "Yes."

"Did the Templars say why they wanted him?"

"They said that the prerequisite for entering the observatory is the blood of the saint, so they used a square glass body to draw his blood."

After Rorschach finished speaking, Kidd picked up a transparent glass body from the side of the stone statue and asked, "A container like this?"

"Yes. They also wanted to ask him about the Observatory, but he escaped from prison."

Nodding his head, Kidd walked towards the back of the stone statue, "Well, let's get out of here..."

Behind the stone statue is a winding staircase.

The three of them followed the stairs and came out of a cave halfway up the mountain.

"James (Kidd's nickname), now can you tell me what's going on?"

Faced with Edward's doubts, Kidd just shook his head, "You need to find the answer yourself. Now, let's go back to see the mentor."

Back to the magnificent Mayan temple in the city center again, Ah Tabai greeted him on his own initiative.

Kidd leaned close to Ah Tabai's ear and whispered something, and the latter's eyes were patrolling Rorschach and Edward the whole time.

After confirming the identity of the saint, Ah Tabai couldn't help but have a serious expression on his face, "That means another saint guarding the observatory has reincarnated..."

"Reincarnated?"

Judging from the doubts on Edward's face, he was obviously at a loss.

However, the assassin mentor did not intend to answer his questions.

At this time, Rorschach spoke first:

"Did you forget something?"

Gathering the attention of several people, he went on to say: "The Knights Templar may already be organizing their manpower to attack your stronghold, and they are even on their way. I think you'd better evacuate the assassins as soon as possible." .”

"Of course, if you need a messenger responsible for delivering the news, Captain Kenway beside me is very willing to make amends for the mistakes he made in Havana."

After finishing speaking, Rorschach turned to look at Edward at the side, and asked with a smile on his face, "Is that so, Edward?"

Meeting Rorschach's gaze, Edward was taken aback for a moment before agreeing casually: "I guess so..."

"Captain Rorschach, no matter what you are doing, whether it is profit or friendship, you have indeed helped us."

"So, I'll accept your deal."

After speaking, Ah Tabai stretched out his right hand to Rorschach.

Seeing this, Luo Xia also stretched out his hand and held it together, not forgetting to add:
"Wise choice!"

After reaching an agreement with Rorschach, he turned to look at Edward beside him:
"As for you, Captain Kenway... I learned from James that you have extraordinary skills."

The corner of his mouth raised, Edward shrugged his shoulders with a proud look, "Thank you for the compliment, it's a natural thing."

"But you're so arrogant and disrespectful, walking around in a uniform you don't deserve."

Facing Ah Tabai's accusation, Edward just raised his eyebrows with a nonchalant expression, "Aren't you advocating that everything is allowed?"

Taking a step forward, Ah Tabai stared closely at Edward's eyes that could not be tamed like the sea, and said in a deep voice:
"I am willing to forgive you for the mistakes you made in Havana, provided that you have to remind our brothers and sisters in several other strongholds."

Hearing this, Edward glanced at Rorschach beside him, who nodded secretly.

Seeing this, he spread his hands, and then said:

"Although it sounds troublesome, but for James' sake, and I'm not the kind of irresponsible man..."

"Leave this matter to me!"
