As Old Song continued to progress in the game, Altair's image gradually began to fill in.
At the beginning, Altair was an arrogant young man who was supercilious and irritable. What he did in Jerusalem had brought about very serious consequences, and the assassin mentor had carefully arranged a "death" for him. He had stripped Altair of his identity as an assassin master and made him start over from scratch.
His mentor gave Altair nine names, all of which were related to the Crusades. Altair wanted to kill these warmongers and bring peace to the local people.
During the assassination, Altair found that these people were not evil people. At this time, his mentor told him that these people were actually Templar Knights. They were all plotting to seize the Golden Apple, the Fragment of Eden, in an attempt to control the entire Mediterranean Sea and even a wider area.
All of this made Altair reflect on his behavior and realize that as an Assassin, he had a responsibility to the Assassin Organization and the people.
In the end, Altair killed the nine targets, but he learned that his mentor was the tenth person. All of this was because his mentor wanted to kill others who knew about the Apple of Eden and monopolize it. In the end, Altair defeated his mentor and saw through the Fragment of Eden what the Abstergo Company wanted to see through Desmond: the whereabouts of the Fragment of Eden.
...
Altair's story was far longer than Lao Song had imagined. During the whole process, Altair had been running around and assassinating one target after another. When he finally defeated his mentor, Lao Song had already understood the cause and effect of Altair's story. However, he still had a question.
"How much has the plot progressed?"
In terms of length, Altair's plot was basically equivalent to the normal content of a game. However, it was obvious that this was far from the end of Assassin's Creed: Revelation.
This was because the second half of the promotional CG had not been mentioned at all.
To Old Song's surprise, the plot of Assassin's Creed: Revelation was still moving forward smoothly, even though the two ancient protagonists were separated by hundreds of years.
With Lucy's help, Desmond escaped from Abstergo and came to the modern Assassin organization. He continued to read the memory of another Legendary Assassin, hoping to stop the conspiracy of the Templar Knights.
It turned out that the feud between the Holy Knights and the Assassin Organization had lasted for thousands of years. Until now, the power of the Holy Knights had infiltrated politics, economy, culture, and other aspects. Abstergo was actually the power of the Holy Knights.
This time, the memory Desmond saw belonged to Ezio Oditore, an assassin active in the Renaissance Period.
Obviously, hundreds of years of history had passed between Altair and Ezio.
Ezio was the son of a banker and lived a carefree life of fighting and picking up girls. However, his father and brother were betrayed, framed, and hanged in public.
Driven by the desire for revenge, Ezio became an assassin and learned the meaning of the assassin's creed and various assassination and fighting techniques from his uncle, Mario. He began to track and assassinate the Templar Knights who plotted to kill his father from Florence to San Geminano and then to Venice. Finally, he got the information about the Golden Apple and Altair's secret letter from the Templar Knights.
After snatching the golden apple, Ezio officially joined the Assassin Brotherhood. However, on their way back to Foli City, they were attacked by the Templar Army. Ezio was injured, and the golden apple was taken from him.
Ezio returned to Florence and got the apple back. As Ezio collected more and more secret letters from Altair, the Assassin Organization pieced together a world map and found more mysterious locations through the apple. To enter the secret underground chamber, Ezio broke into the Sistine Church alone and defeated Pope Alexander VI. Then, he opened the hidden passage in the underground chamber and learned from the forerunner that humans would face a great disaster in the future.
Ezio and his uncle, Mario, returned to Montrigioni, but they were attacked by the Templar Knights again. Mario was killed, and Ezio was shot and fled. The Golden Apple fell into the hands of the Templar Knights again.
Ezio came to Rome and weakened the Templar Knights' power. After getting the Golden Apple back, he hid it in the Godly Temple under the Roman Colosseum under the guidance of the apple, waiting for someone to appear 500 years later.
Ezio stabilized the Assassin Organization's power in Italy and expanded it. While reading Mario's documents, Ezio found a letter from his father, which mentioned a secret library hidden in Masjave, the birthplace of the famous assassin Altair.
Ezio set out on the journey to Masyaf, and it took him ten months to reach his destination. However, to his surprise, he was greeted by a large group of Templar Knights. In the illusion, Ezio saw a white-clothed assassin, which was the scene in the promotional CG.
After escaping successfully, Ezio asked the workers who were kidnapped by the Templar Knights and learned that these Templar Knights were also looking for a way to enter the library.
Under the guidance of the books from Nicro Polo, Marco Polo's father, Ezio searched for the keys to Masjave and was also involved in the internal conflict of the Byzantine Royal Family in Constantinople.
Masyaf's keys were shaped like discs that emitted golden light. Obviously, they were the products of the Forerunners' technology. They also contained Altair's memories, which Desmond had never seen before.
In his later years, Altair built a library in Masjave and told Nicro Polo about his life. At the same time, Altair sent assassins all over the world. Since Altair had assassinated Genghis Khan, the Mongolian Army would take revenge on him. Altair gave his secret letters and the keys to the library to Nicro Polo, the explorer, hoping that one day, an assassin could find this place.
Old Song experienced all this from Desmond's perspective, and he had complicated feelings.
Ezio successfully opened the door of the library and lit the torches on the wall. However, it was empty except for Altair's remains, which had been waiting for him for so many years.
In Altair's memory, the old Altair said goodbye to his son and then entered the library. The heavy door closed in front of him.
Trembling, Altair walked forward, put out the torches on the wall one by one, and hid his golden apple.
[Sit down and rest for a while.]
A line of small words appeared in his vision. Altair fumbled for the chair in the center of the room and sat down shakily. Looking at the Masjave key in his hand, he seemed to be in deep thought.
However, the scene changed, and it was more than 400 years later.
After countless twists and turns and frustrations, these two greatest assassins finally met in a way that no one could have expected …
The golden apple lit up. After interacting with the pioneers so many times, Ezio understood that he was just a mouthpiece. He had experienced so much just so that Desmond could get information about the pioneers through his memory.
