Chapter 153 Assassin Mentor, A Deal

Tulum is located on the Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico. It is the ruins of a city established by the Mayans thousands of years ago.

At the stern of the Poseidon, looking towards the island, one can vaguely see ancient stone buildings hidden in the lush woods.

And on the extremely crude small pier, Kidd, wearing a red turban, had been waiting for a long time with his hands behind his back.

With a "bang", a small boat was thrown onto the sea surface, splashing a little water.

At this time, Big O'Neill held the scimitar at his waist, stood in front of his own captain, frowned and suggested for the last time:

"Captain, do you really not need us to accompany you there?"

"Don't worry, I can protect myself."

Patting his quartermaster on the shoulder, Rorschach pointed to Edward who was not far away, and said with a smile, "What's more, I didn't go to the appointment alone..."

"Just wait for me here, don't conflict with anyone on the island, I will be back soon."

After giving instructions, Luo Xia stepped forward, grabbed the rope on the side of the boat, and slid down onto the small wooden boat.

Edward, on the other hand, was even more unrestrained.

He stepped on the side rails of the boat with both feet, jumped from the boat several meters high, and jumped directly onto the wooden boat.

And the whole wooden boat just shook slightly.

Seeing Edward's agile skills, Rorschach couldn't help sighing in his heart again:
A natural born assassin!

If he has Edward's skill, then he can only do more!
Thinking of this, Rorschach became more determined in his plan to establish friendship with the Assassin Brotherhood.

What he wants, only the assassins can give him...

At this time, Edward was also thinking about what he could gain from these assassins.

The two people with different thoughts rowed their oars and soon came to the pier.

Seeing the two people who came at the appointment, Kidd blinked and said:

"The mentor is waiting for you in the temple, follow me."

After that, he turned and left.

Rorschach and Edward looked at each other, then took a step and followed closely behind.

Following Kidd, he proceeded along a mountain road extending deep into the island.

Along the way, Rorschach and Edward saw many assassins in white or gray robes.

While looking at the two of them up and down, they talked about Rorschach and Edward in a language that only locals could understand:

"A fake assassin, wearing the clothes of a traitor, how depraved is a person?"

"A templar knight and a pirate pretending to be a traitor. What is the reason why the mentor asked them to come here?"

"I do not know either…"

Seeing the guarded eyes of the assassins, Edward couldn't help poking Rorschach beside him with his elbow, and said in a low voice:

"They seem to be talking about us ... and it doesn't look like a good thing."

Rorschach, who understood what the assassins were talking about, just nodded his head, expressing his approval: "Maybe..."

"If the situation is not right, we will join forces and fight out immediately!"

Hearing this, Luo Xia couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

This is very in line with Edward's character, if he refuses to accept it, he will do it!

However, before Rorschach could express his opinion on Edward's plan, Kidd, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped in his tracks:

"We have arrived."

Before they knew it, the three of them had come to a place full of vines and stone buildings.

Judging from the dilapidated and ancient ruins and tiles around, as well as the well-preserved Mayan temple, this area should be the city center of the Mayan civilization on the island.

And they stood on the sacrificial square of the Mayan temple.

Looking around, and found that he didn't see the so-called assassin mentor, Edward couldn't wait to ask:
"Kidd, where's the person?"

As soon as the words fell, a deep man's voice sounded out of nowhere behind the two:

"Two..."

Hearing the sound, Rorschach frowned, and almost subconsciously used [Death Eye]

However, thoughts are fleeting.

Besides the assassin mentor, who else could quietly come behind them?
Therefore, he resisted the urge to activate the skill directly.

However, Edward beside him, no matter who is coming, moves faster than him!Be more decisive!

He turned around abruptly, and drew out the flintlock pistol on his chest without hesitation!

However, the moment he turned around, a big hand grabbed his arm violently, preventing him from raising the gun, and pushed him away.

Edward, who was suppressed by the opponent, was naturally unwilling to let it go.

Just when he was angrily about to go up to fight with the visitor, Luo Xia, who just turned around, took a step forward, stretched out his hand to stop him and said:
"Edward!"

The one who "surprised" Edward was a man wearing a hood and a brown assassin uniform, with two horizontal lines of different thicknesses painted on the bridge of his nose with black juice.

Judging from his skin color and the painting style on his face, this is obviously a Mayan.

And this man is the mentor of the Caribbean Brotherhood, Ah Tabai!
His gaze stayed on Rorschach for a while, then Ah Tabai looked at Edward, and said in a deep voice:
"And the Assassin named Duncan Walpole?"

Glancing at a group of assassins who suddenly appeared around, Edward retracted his pistol while replying: "Dead, buried, he planned to kill me then."

"We will not regret his departure. But you still follow in his footsteps to betray us, why?"

"Money is my goal."

Hearing this straightforward answer, Ah Tabai frowned, took a step forward, and stared at the blond man with unruly expressions and eyes:
"So, you just sold the map that marked the assassin's stronghold to the Knights Templar?"

"So what did you get? They found out your identity, were thrown into an iron cage, and planned to be sent to the mainland for trial?"

This ridicule made Edward open his mouth directly, but he was speechless.

He was indeed stealing chickens and losing money, and almost lost his own life.

After making a heart-wrenching speech to Edward, Ah Tabai shifted his focus and looked at Rorschach at the side:

"As for you... Templar, this is not where you should be."

Facing the assassins who made no secret of their killing intent, Rorschach remained calm, but spread his hands, "I am here as a friend, not as a Templar."

"So, tell me, why are you here?"

"Friendship, your friendship!"

Hearing this, Ah Tabai's expression was solemn, and his sharp eyes like a falcon seemed to want to penetrate Rorschach's heart and see his true intentions clearly:
"Why would a Templar want the friendship of an Assassin?"

"Perhaps Kidd has already told you that the reason why I joined the Templar Knights was only for profit. I don't agree with their ideas. And you, I have never been in contact with them, let alone agree with them."

"It's just that I am a person who likes to make friends. Moreover, I am very interested in your assassin skills..."

Hearing these words, Ah Tabai, Kidd and Edward beside him were a little surprised.

"So, you came here to betray the Templars and join us?"

However, Rorschach just shook his head, and then changed the topic:
"How about we make a deal?"
