Chapter 723 Farewell
Luke stared with dead eyes at the three sloppy old men in front of him eating and drinking recklessly.
"How did you get yourself into such a mess?"
The great adventurer Paul accused Master Tom without even looking up.
"It's this old man who wants to go to war with the bandits whenever he disagrees with something."
"But when we saw that the other side had more people, we couldn't defeat them, so they dragged us away and ran away..."
Old man Tom retorted dissatisfiedly:
"I was acting in a chivalrous and righteous manner. How could I stand by and watch bandits robbing the people?"
Paul: "Come on, Andre and I both knew that they were just playing us, but you were stupid enough to believe it."
Tom: "I also killed the bandit leader, so I got rid of a threat to the people..."
Luke realized that these old guys had been arguing for a long time because they had encountered a scam during their travels.
As a result, he was unable to defeat the enemy and fled to the Vatican in panic.
Because I said, know Luke.
As a result, he was sent to the capital by the Paladin overnight.
After dinner, Master Tom picked his teeth and said to Luke:
"Little Dutton, do you mind if we stay a little longer this time?"
Luke glanced at old man Tom and curled his lips.
"Old man, be polite, so I can be sure that you are older than me?"
As soon as Luke said this, the three old men looked at him.
Indeed, Luke never said his age.
And such powerful strength as his can obviously not be achieved in a short period of time.
Tom had seen the guards that Luke had killed when he rescued them.
He didn't think he could do better than Luke.
The point is, Luke killed people without making any sound...
He can't do this.
The three old men looked at each other and fell silent.
Seeing that they were all quiet, Luke nodded.
"You can study the classics here. I will arrange for someone to give you guidance and help."
"but……"
"You'd better behave yourself here. Also, what's the story about the King of Assassins that's been circulating on the road?"
Paul and Andre turned their attention to Tom.
Tom said carelessly: "Isn't this just to publicize your achievements?"
"I don't believe that the former popes and cardinals died at the hands of evil gods."
In fact, they actually went to the mountain where the altar was hidden.
Also entered the cave.
But Luke cleaned it up very thoroughly and left nothing behind.
But after all, it is a trace of a great war.
Andre and Paul, two experienced old men, could easily see it.
Combined with Tom's experience, it was judged that there were only two people fighting here in the end.
The Pope is ruled out, he is just a mortal.
And so many cardinals left nothing behind.
They speculated that it would most likely be Luke and the evil god fighting in the end.
But they didn't understand why there were so many water stains and a strange smell on the altar.
Could it be that the evil god has something to do with water?
Fortunately, they didn't ask the person involved.
Even if asked, Luke and Wanda wouldn't tell.
So, these three old men decided to come to the Vatican.
It's just that I happened to encounter trouble on the way.
In the past, due to their relationship with the Holy See, they were unable to read many ancient books.
Now the Vatican is under the control of Wanda and Luke.
The three old men had the opportunity to visit the Vatican's library.
After arranging the three old men, Luke continued to sort out the daily affairs of the Holy See.
Wanda followed him and learned.
Suddenly, Wanda and Luke started talking about the legend of the King of Assassins.
The relationship between the two is now like that of a husband and wife.
Luke now has to plow the fields every night and deal with Vatican affairs during the day.
This is just like a cow or a horse...
But Wanda became more and more cheerful.
Even though he still couldn't beat Luke in bed, he was able to recover early the next morning.
At least we can be evenly matched at the beginning.
After hearing Wanda talk about assassins, Luke thought about it and decided to follow her idea and train some assassins.
As an assassin, you must walk in the shadows.
What: Slogans like "I don't have anything you want, so do whatever you want" are useless.
As long as it upholds justice.
So, Luke had another job, secretly training assassins and establishing an assassins' guild on the road.
But the assassin is a secret identity after all.
The Assassins Guild still has to be established in secret.
And they must also distance themselves from the power of the Holy See.
Luke's skills cannot be passed on to assassins, but Wanda can give them power.
So, the world has a new Assassin's Creed:
The long night is coming, and I will start watching from now on until I die.
I will not wear a crown, nor seek honor.
I will perform my duty faithfully, live and die by it.
I am the sword in the darkness, the guard on the Great Wall, the fire that protects against the cold, the light at dawn, the horn to wake the sleepers, and the shield that guards justice.
I pledge my life and honor to the cause of the Assassin. Tonight and all the nights to come.
Luke still modified the original.
Assassins are also human beings. They should marry, have children and live a normal life.
People should be allowed to retire and enjoy their old age.
This is the only way to better pass on the business.
Wanda can basically achieve immortality in this world.
So, except for the top leaders of the Assassin's Guild, their beliefs come from the Assassin's Creed granted by Wanda.
Other assassins gained their abilities by swearing an oath according to the Assassin's Creed.
Wanda just watched Luke busy himself.
She is content to be a mascot.
Watching Luke every day and taking care of his daily life like a wife.
Both of them understood that the time they spent together was dwindling.
Although they didn't say it explicitly, the two of them cherish the present time very much.
A year later, the Holy Land of the Papal States.
The back mountain of the Goddess Palace.
The original Pope's Palace on the top of the Holy Mountain was converted into the Palace of the Goddess.
Meryl became the chief high priestess of the Palace of the Goddess.
Responsible for all affairs of the Goddess Palace.
Today, the Holy See invited envoys from the five major kingdoms and the bosses of the Warlock Guild to gather together.
The envoys from the five kingdoms are all princes or princesses.
Princess Julia came, and so did Prince Zepheniah.
The reason they were invited was to witness the day when Luke left this world.
A week ago, Wanda was willing to use all her strength to fight Luke to the death.
The two of them spent almost the entire week in the room.
The day of separation is coming.
Luke has things to do back on Earth.
Wanda can't keep Luke anymore.
The invited guests followed Wanda and Luke to the valley behind the holy mountain without any followers.
There is an ancient altar here.
But the patterns on it are indeed newly carved.
With everyone witnessing, Wanda hugged Luke and kissed him deeply for a long time.
After finally parting reluctantly, he cut his arm.
Drip blood on the stone pillar.
A red shield lit up over the altar.
Luke walked into the center of the altar.
Said to Wanda:
"wait me back."
Wanda smiled and shed a tear.
nodded.
Then, he injected his own strength into the stone pillar.
The red light became brighter and a dazzling light flashed.
Luke's figure disappeared into the altar.
Wanda withdrew her hand and looked at the empty altar in a daze.
Soon after, Wanda began to vomit...
(You didn’t guess it, right? This is the first child Wanda gave birth to Luke. As mentioned in the previous article, the difference in strength between Luke and his ex-girlfriend is too great, and they are no longer the same species.)
(Only when the strengths match can offspring be born. Wanda is the first girlfriend to reach the single universe level, so naturally she is the first to give birth to his child.)
