A trip to the second dimension

Chapter 75 Travelers from the Black Continent (Fourth Update)

"So, your hidden blade has been repaired. What are you going to do next?"

The three of them walked out of the autopsy room together, and Leonardo began to ask Ezio about their next move as if nothing had happened.

"We came here mainly to find Uberto. Is he still in Florence?"

As Ezio answered, he also began to inquire about the news.

"Uberto Alberti? Of course he's still in Florence, and he's living a comfortable life these days. Lorenzo is gone, and your Auditore family has been driven away. With the cooperation of the Pazzi family, his power is growing."

Leonardo seemed to remember something while speaking, turned around and pointed at Ezio, and said excitedly: "By the way, there seem to be a lot of those manuscripts, and the ciphers on them are very interesting. If you find any new ones, bring them to me and I'll help you translate them."

"Okay, that's no problem. If I find them, I'll bring them to you." Ezio nodded and said, "Well, it's getting late, so we'll leave first."

"Okay, be more careful outside. Although it's not as strict as before, the soldiers in the city are still looking for you. Don't let them find you."

Leonardo waved his hand and watched Hope and Ezio leave his studio.

In Leonardo's studio, Hope and the others had been there for quite some time. When they came out, it was already dark outside.

But it was not time to rest yet. Since it was confirmed that Uberto was still in Florence, the next thing to do was to collect information about the target of assassination, so as to determine the method, time and place of assassination.

As for collecting information, it was of course left to Ezio.

After all, he had been receiving professional training as an assassin since he was a child, but he himself did not realize it.

Now that he had accepted this identity, he would be able to get started on many things much faster.

As a law enforcement officer, Uberto was a real big shot in the city of Florence, and he also had official duties, so he would appear in front of everyone from time to time, so it was relatively easy to find his whereabouts.

Just before dawn in the evening, Ezio and Hope met on the roof of a residential building, and the other party shared the news he had found out with Hope.

"I heard that there is a traveler coming from the Black Continent recently. This person seems to have something that Uberto is very interested in. He met him at the city gate this morning. Tomorrow morning, they will go to the Basilica of Santa Croce to attend the unveiling ceremony of Andrea del Verrocchio's latest work. We can take action against Uberto at that time."

Ezio said, but Hope shook his head and said, "We still have to ask him for some information. There will be a lot of guards at the Basilica of Santa Croce tomorrow. It will be convenient to assassinate him, but it will be a bit troublesome to interrogate him."

"So, we have to find a way to kidnap Uberto... In this case..."

After hearing Hope's words, Ezio knew that he had not considered it carefully. He lowered his head and began to think slowly.

"It's actually quite simple. Once you go in, just make him lose his mobility, and then run out with him. I'll have Chimaera pick you up. When the time comes, just ride on Chimaera and run. The guards won't be able to catch up with us. Well, I guess they won't dare to chase us after seeing Chimaera."

As he spoke, Hope couldn't help but laugh.

Without thousands of soldiers and heavy equipment to siege him, Hope really doesn't have to be afraid of anyone in Florence with his strength.

What's more, this is still a city. Without the advantages of numbers and terrain, who can stop Hope?

"Chimaera?"

Upon hearing this name, Ezio suddenly remembered the huge mechanical monster that Hope had shown him a few days ago.

He remembered that when he first met it, he was very shocked by the existence of Chimaera.

Now that Hope mentioned this name again, Ezio immediately relaxed a lot.

Since there is Chimaera, there will be no problem with tomorrow's operation.

Without any worries, Ezio was in a much happier mood. He simply sat on the roof and chatted with Hope.

Early the next morning, Hope was already standing on the roof next to the Basilica of the Holy Cross to enjoy the breeze.

As for Ezio, the new assassin had already lowered his presence and entered the courtyard among a group of guests. He estimated that he would be able to complete the mission and run out without waiting too long.

At the back door of the Basilica of the Holy Cross, there was a haystack, in which was hidden a Chimera that had shrunk to a height of one meter.

Later, as long as Ezio caught Uberto, it would jump out and grow to a size of two meters, carrying Ezio and the others away.

As for Hope, his job was still to cover the rear.

When necessary, he could also act according to circumstances.

Anyway, their strength was there, and it was absolutely impossible for the mission to fail.

After waiting for about ten minutes, just when Hope was a little bored and started to count how many pigeons there were on the roof next to him, there was finally a commotion in the inner courtyard of the Basilica of the Holy Cross opposite, and the loud screams of some noble ladies.

Nothing could be a better signal for action than this. Hope immediately perked up, holding the steam pistol that he had modified, and stared at the back door like an eagle.

There, stood two heavily armored soldiers wearing heavy armor and holding axes.

Because they heard the commotion in the inner court, the two men had turned their heads to look inside the inner court, and seemed to be ready to block the way.

Seeing this, Hope directly injected the steam power into the steam pistol in his hand.

"Bang! Bang!"

Two gunshots, and a big hole suddenly appeared on the back of the helmets of the two heavily armored soldiers who had just turned around, and they fell to the ground dead instantly.

The next moment, Ezio, who was struggling to carry a fat man, stepped out of the back door.

The Chimera, who had been waiting for a long time, did not continue to hide, and jumped out of the haystack, and the mechanical parts of his body began to move, and instantly swelled into a two-meter steam horse.

After throwing the fat man Uberto onto the horse, Ezio immediately climbed on top and looked in the direction of Hope. Amid the exclamations of passers-by around him, he rode the Chimaera, which was obviously different from this world, and left along the road.

The Chimaera was very fast, but the soldiers chasing behind also saw the mechanical monster.

They were not very receptive, and after seeing the Chimaera, they were so frightened that they dared not move forward, and could only stand there with their weapons in hand.

Even a few particularly timid ones had already sat on the ground.

Seeing that this group of soldiers was so unbearable, it was estimated that they could not catch up with Ezio and the others, so Hope was ready to leave.

But at this time, also in the Basilica of the Holy Cross, a sneaky figure slipped through the crowd and ran out in the opposite direction.

Seeing that person, Hope had a keen sense that he might have something on him, so he jumped directly on the roof and chased him.

For popular science, the Black Continent actually refers to Egypt.

Also, please vote for me, everyone. It’s been so many days and no one has voted for me. It’s so miserable!
