The middle-aged assassin's battle continued.
The assassin in white walked into the crowd of Holy Knights as if there was no one around.
But he was like a phantom, passing through the bodies of the Holy Knights, not even causing any ripples.
The Paladins ignored him and continued to roar and charge at the middle-aged assassin who was surrounded by the crowd.
But when the white-clothed assassin passed by the middle-aged assassin's side …
The middle-aged assassin seemed to have seen him.
The middle-aged assassin's vision was hidden by the hood, but from his short pause and slightly confused expression, he obviously saw the white figure.
Confused.
Confused.
At this time, he seemed to hear a sentence.
Many assassins, many voices, all said at the same time.
"When others blindly pursue the truth, remember —"
"Everything is false."
"When others are bound by morality or law, remember —"
"Everything is permitted."
"We walk in the dark."
"But we bow to the light."
"We are …"
"Assassin!"
The moment of hesitation caused a fatal flaw in the middle-aged assassin's defense, the Holy Knights' heavy sword hit the weak point of his hidden blade.
"Ding!"
A crisp sound, the hidden blade broke.
The middle-aged assassin lost his balance and fell to the ground. The Holy Knights immediately rushed forward, surrounding the middle-aged assassin with their spears.
The figure of the assassin in white had completely disappeared.
The middle-aged assassin was brought up to the platform by the Holy Knights, and the ferocious-looking bald commander put a noose on him.
But at this time, the middle-aged assassin saw the assassin in white again.
They were on different platforms, but their actions were strangely consistent.
The Holy Knights also looked at the direction of the assassin in white, but there was no one there.
The moment the noose tightened, the middle-aged assassin instantly turned around!
He used his elbow to hit the commander's right cheek, and then swung the noose, wrapping it around the commander's neck.
He leaped!
"Zhi zhi zhi zhi …"
The noose tightened with a jarring sound, but it was not the middle-aged assassin who was strangled by the noose, but the commander of the Templar Knights on the wooden platform.
The guards at the side hurriedly cut the ropes to save their commander, but the middle-aged assassin had already floated down and regained his freedom.
The middle-aged assassin stood up, calmly put on his hood, and walked towards the camera.
The screen turned black, and a huge logo appeared on the screen.
Assassin's Creed!
…
…
This promotional video immediately caused a heated discussion among the players!
One of the most important reasons was that the length of the video was too long. It was a full five minutes.
The promotional videos of other games were basically between 1 to 3 minutes. After all, CG was something that was "condensed". It was fine as long as it was enough. If it was too long, it might seem slow.
However, even though the new promotional CG of Assassin's Creed lasted for five minutes, the players didn't feel that it was a drag, because it contained a lot of content.
However, many players were puzzled. What was the meaning of this CG?
"Damn, the main character is so handsome! I think he's more handsome than Bayek! "
"Yeah. Lord Ba is a berserker, right? This is the real assassin. He kills one person in every ten steps, and he doesn't leave a trace for a thousand miles. When the job is done, he vanishes without a trace, and he hides his achievements and fame! "
"He appears and disappears like a ghost, and he kills with one strike. Wow, he's so cool!"
"But I'm baffled by the plot. What's the meaning of this?"
"Yeah. The white-clothed assassin kills people in the beginning. How come he turns into a phantom at the end? Is he a real person or not? "
"The handsome uncle in the back was tricked by him …"
"Is it possible that Assassin's Creed has two main characters? Can they switch freely? "
"It's possible. Is there a cooperation mode?"
"… You guys are overthinking it. How come I feel that the two people live in different eras?"
"The first part is so cool. It's so cool to switch between modern and ancient times, reality and virtual world."
"I feel like this realistic plot is abrupt and unnecessary. It's an ancient story, but it's so weird to insert this part into it."
"This trailer is so long, and I still don't understand the story …"
Many players were baffled. From the trailer, the young assassin in white and the middle-aged assassin had a lot of scenes, but they were obviously two different people.
Many people guessed that this was a double main character mode.
But from all the signs, the white-clothed assassin that the middle-aged assassin saw was a phantom. Judging from their clothes and surroundings, they didn't seem to live in the same era.
Besides, it was the first time that the CG of Assassin's Creed had modern elements in it, and many people were puzzled.
However, the CG finally mentioned the theme of the game – Assassin's Creed.
The CG narrated the so-called creed, "Everything is false, and everything is permitted."
However, he did not give too much explanation as to what this sentence meant.
In any case, the CG was cool, and that was enough!
The Egyptian style in Assassin's Creed: Origins added a lot of points to the CG, but one had to admit that Bayek wasn't a handsome main character according to the aesthetic standards of many players.
On the contrary, the two main characters in the CG were handsome to the extreme.
They didn't have complicated weapons like Bayek's longbow, blunt weapons, or spears; they only had hidden blades. However, the close-range combat was very fitting for an assassin. The elegance of dancing on the tip of a blade intoxicated many players.
Many players expressed that they would buy it if they didn't buy it!
Being handsome was something that could last a lifetime. They would buy it just for the clothes!
…
In fact, there wasn't one promotional video this time, but three. They were based on Assassin's Creed: Identity, Assassin's Creed 1, and Assassin's Creed: Revelation respectively, with introductions about the creed in between.
There wasn't only one main character in the trailer, but three: Desmond, Altair, and Ezio.
Of course, the main character in Assassin's Creed: Identity wasn't Desmond, but an ordinary player. However, his character was very similar to Desmond's. Therefore, Chen Mo combined the three CGs to introduce the new content of Assassin's Creed.
The plot of this CG was actually deliberately blurred out the timeline, creating a kind of suspense for the players to guess.
Through Altair's image in white, Desmond, the modern protagonist, was successfully linked with Ezio in Assassin's Creed: Revelations, creating a brand new promotional CG tailored for the new content of Assassin's Creed.
