[Comprehensive] The Last Assassin

Shen Qiong has never been in contact with assassins other than Henry Frye. She doesn't know how strong the assassins of the North American Brotherhood are, but the man in front of her does make her feel dangerous.

This sense of crisis is inherent and has helped Shen Qiong through many crises.

So she swallowed all the questions right away, even kicking Warren to turn his attention away from Magneto and back to herself.

Shen Qiong's method is stupid, but effective.

At least until the worker convinced his foreman to go back first, Warren just frowned and stared at her, but did nothing else.

The foreman left, and for a while there were only three of them left outside the factory.

The worker took off his helmet, his short golden-brown hair stuck to his forehead from sweat.His movements were neither too fast nor too slow, but Shen Qiong felt an invincible strength from the bottom of her heart. Her eyes were fixed on each other's every move, not daring to be distracted in the slightest.She even prepared for the worst.

However, after the worker who made Shen Qiong feel a lot of pressure arranged his helmet, he just glanced at them calmly, and said, "Are you looking for me?"

Warren wanted to speak, but Shen Qiong stepped forward without a trace, protecting him within her reach, then met Magneto's eyes, and said word by word: "We are looking for Magneto."

The worker paused with his fingers, and then asked, "For what?"

Shen Qiong said simply and to the point: "Brotherhood."

Saying these three words finally made the other party's face show a little more expression.

He swept across the two of them, paused for a few seconds at the protruding part of the angel's back, and raised his eyebrows.

The angel tore off part of his coat expressionlessly, allowing the other party to glimpse the snow-white feathers inside his coat.

Magneto's gaze froze, and he exclaimed, "Our brother."

He said: "This is not a place to chat, come with me."

Warren and Shen Qiong glanced at each other, and followed Magneto to the depths of the forest.

When they got here, they discovered that there was an old abandoned factory in the forest. Just because the new factory was in front of them, people subconsciously wouldn't go deeper to search, and naturally they couldn't find the old factory here.

However, it is said to be an old factory, but it is more popular here.

The heavy iron gates of the old factory are still in use, and there are even guards.When Magneto returned, the gatekeeper saluted him, calling him "Master"*1, and opened the iron gate wrapped with iron spikes and grids for him.When Shen Qiong passed the iron gate, she glanced at the gatekeeper without a trace, and found that he had no hands at all, and some had reptile-like three-toed feet.

Shen Qiong looked away calmly, as if she didn't see anything.

On the contrary, there was some unconcealable shock in Warren's eyes. He seemed to be seeing such a strange person for the first time. He didn't look away until a threatening voice rolled out of the other party's throat. Warren, who didn't want to cause trouble, looked away.

Shen Qiong looked up at him and asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Warren looked complicated: "... nothing, I just feel lucky." After a pause, he added, "At least I have wings, not a deformed body."

His voice was not loud, but he didn't deliberately cover it up.

The gatekeeper keenly caught the word "deformation", and surrendered Warren's eyes were a little fierce. Shen Qiong glanced back without a trace, and the Hidden Sword was brushed out of its sheath.

There was indifference in her emerald pupils, enough indifference for the gatekeeper of the opposite sex to clearly receive the dangerous information, and this information full of death was enough for him to turn his eyes away.

Magneto noticed this scene and was thoughtful.

Walking into the old factory, there are more human beings with various abilities.

The three-toed and different claws of the previous gatekeeper seemed nothing to this group of people. There were some with long tails, and even some with scales.

This group of people who didn't know what to do in the old factory noticed Magneto, and they all stopped their movements and saluted him.

Shen Qiong's original suspicion dissipated again.

If it weren't for the great mentor of the Brotherhood, where would so many people pay tribute to him?

As for these people—Shen Qiong glanced at a guy who could turn her nails into steel and sharpen a knife, and her heart was at peace—she had never seen other assassins, perhaps in order to fight against the Templars, the North American brothers Will they have to absorb these people with supernatural powers?

After all, Warren had also accepted the invitation.

Ultimately, Shen Qiong believed that Warren would not deceive herself on this matter.

So she calmly followed Magneto through the crowd and came to a reception room at the back of the hall.

The furnishings of the reception room are simple, but there are many things that should be there.

Magneto signaled the two to sit down, and the angel took off his coat, stretched his wings that had been imprisoned by the coat for a long time, rubbed his shoulders and let out a sigh of relief.He glanced at Magneto, then at Shen Qiong, and said, "You talk, I'll go out."

Magneto was a little surprised, his eyes darkened: "You are our brother, don't you want to stay?"

The angel waved his hand and lazily said: "I like to work alone." After a pause, he glanced at Shen Qiong and said, "I just sent her here, she wants to see you."

Magneto laughed when he heard the words, and he showed his white teeth when he smiled. He looked a bit like a ferocious shark, but Shen Qiong felt kind - because in the information about master assassins collected by her adoptive father, the master assassin Aquin A descendant of the legendary assassin Callum Lynch (*2), this is what he looks like when he smiles in the portrait left behind.

Magneto stared at the Hidden Blade on Shen Qiong's wrist, and slowly said: "Interesting, at this moment, there are actually assassins coming to me."

Shen Qiong was stunned when she heard this sentence.

Regardless of the danger she felt before, she hurriedly pulled out the metal coin from her chest, but before she handed the thing over and said the slogan, Magneto's eyes froze.

He stared at the thin metal piece in Shen Qiong's hand, and the shock in his gray eyes was even greater than seeing Warren's wings before!

He snatched the metal piece from Shen Qiong's hand, looked carefully for a while, then raised his eyes to Shen Qiong: "...Assassin League."

Shen Qiong was extremely happy to be revealed by the opponent first.

She felt that this time she probably really found a fraternity in North America, even though the leader of the fraternity looked a little young, and actually experienced life in a steel factory.

So she bent down solemnly and bowed to Magneto, respecting: "Great Teacher, good day. I am Assassin Joan Frye, a disciple of Henry Frye in the Eastern Stronghold."

Magneto glanced at her and remained calm.

He said steadily, "I can't confirm your identity with just one coin."

Shen Qiong felt that it was reasonable, so she hurriedly took out the wax-sealed sheepskin letter from her belt. The sheepskin letter contained the wax seal of Henry Frye. This cannot be forged, and it is also the thing that can best prove her identity.

She handed over the letterhead: "Father asked me to bring a letter of recommendation."

Magneto took the letter and glanced at the angel who was still standing.

Warren shrugged, opened the door and walked out.

He really didn't want to join Magneto's brotherhood, and it would be troublesome to stay here in case he was forced to stay.

Shen Qiong looked nervously at Magneto who was scanning through the letter, her heart beating like a drum.

She wasn't sure if she could compete for a place in the North American Brotherhood, so she was eligible to get in touch with things related to the Pieces of Eden-after all, her adoptive father had been away from the Center for a long time in order to raise her, and the right to speak had long been inferior to what it used to be.

Fortunately, after reading the letter, Magneto didn't let her go out directly, but nodded to her.

Under Shen Qiong's tension, Magneto said gently: "We never refuse brothers, this will always be your home."

Hearing this sentence, Shen Qiong breathed a sigh of relief, and she said, "Master, about the Pieces of Eden—"

Magneto suddenly said: "Your ability."

Shen Qiong: "...Huh?"

The man said impatiently: "You can control the ability of time."

Shen Qiong was stunned for a while before realizing that the great teacher wanted her to show him how much she was affected by the Pieces of Eden, so she stood up and said, "Because of my father's worries, I didn't deliberately exercise this ability .At present, only the time of objects can be controlled.”

Magneto raised his eyebrows: "For example?"

He returned the opened letter to Shen Qiong, and ordered in a low voice: "Show me."

Shen Qiong was taken aback, but the assassins were strictly hierarchical.She is just an ordinary assassin who wanders outside the Central Committee, and she is not qualified to question the request of the Grand Master, let alone she has a request from the North American Brotherhood.

In terms of emotion and reason, she couldn't refuse Magneto's request.

So she blinked, stretched out her hand, as if adjusting the progress bar, and pulled slightly to the left with her index finger on the opened letter.

A miracle happened.

In Shen Qiong's eyes, everything was still, only the letter that was refolded and jumped back into the wax seal to complete it was moving.

But in the eyes of Magneto, it is the envelope that changes in an instant.

It changed back to the appearance it was just exchanged by Shen Qiong for him 3 minutes ago.

The wax seal is intact, like a miracle.

Magneto's gray eyes were no longer surprised, but fanaticism, a kind of fanaticism that made Shen Qiong feel uncomfortable.

He stared at Shen Qiong closely, as if he had grasped some kind of treasure that he had been looking for for a long time, and he showed a smile that couldn't be happier.

The man stretched out his hand, handed the envelope back to Shen Qiong, and said condescendingly: "From today on, you are our brother." There was light in his eyes, and his tone was calm: "I am Eric Lanshere, people often call me Magneto, but you can call me Grand Master."

Shen Qiong breathed a sigh of relief.

In the next second, Magneto made another request to her.

"Since you are an Assassin, you should do something for the Brotherhood first before talking about requirements." Magneto looked at her and smiled, "This is the rule of Assassins, isn't it?"

Shen Qiong hesitated: "Indeed, what do you want me to do for you?"

"What else would I ask you to do?" Magneto's gray eyes were full of coldness, "I just need you to get rid of one person for the Brotherhood."

Shen Qiong subconsciously asked: "Who is it?"

Magneto smiled, but the absurdity did not reach his eyes at all.

"Tony Stark, the famous Iron Man."

He reported the name to Shen Qiong.

The author has something to say:

Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Let me tell you a few stories.

1. Master, I used the title of Master here. This word has many meanings. Shen Qiong misunderstood what others meant by calling him Magneto.

2. The legendary assassin Callum Lynch, the protagonist of the Assassin's Creed movie, the actor and the young Magneto are the same person, both of them are Fasha.

3. Because I have integrated the worldview, Magneto, who has developed his own power, will certainly not be ignorant of the North American Brotherhood. After all, assassins are indeed a force that cannot be underestimated.Just why is he so daring to lie?Will explain later.

4. Assassins: Assassins are an organization that pursues true peace.But the Assassin's rivals, the Templars, are not. They pursue the feeling of creating a "perfect world" and rebuilding the Garden of Eden.In order to rebuild the Garden of Eden, they did whatever they could. The Assassins believed that this was immoral and human-free, so they were always confronted by the Templars.The Brotherhood is their specific name for their organization, though Magneto's mutant organization also calls itself The Brotherhood.So Shen Qiong actually found the wrong organization.

You don't need to know much about the Assassins and Templars, you just need to know that they are deadly enemies.I will slowly introduce the Assassins and Templars to you later.
