Chapter 98 Assassins and Crusaders
Strategy and planning are indispensable - the author
-
Sure enough, the two were walking on the road like this, and they were discovered by the Crusaders before they reached them.

The Crusaders drew out their long swords and pointed them at Gao Long who was walking in front, and the crossbowmen beside him also prepared their crossbow arrows.

"Stop! Who are you!" the soldier near Altaïr yelled at the two.

The person who can appear on the mountain so easily does not know what it is like.

"Wait a minute, I didn't come here for bloodshed, I have something to convey." Altaïr raised his hands and walked slowly.

Richard heard the voice and came down from the top of the mountain. "Are you here to surrender? It's time."

Richard thought they were sent by Saladin to surrender, but he didn't expect that Saladin is not here now, maybe there was something wrong with yesterday's negotiation.

"You misunderstood, it was not Saladin who sent me, but Al Mualim." Altaïr had already walked in front of Richard, and Gao Long seemed to follow.

"Assassin?!" Richard seemed to have become cautious, and the soldiers around him also became tense.

"What does this mean? Say it!" Richard yelled at Altaïr, as the Lionheart, he was quite courageous.

"There is a traitor among your subordinates." Altaïr said lightly.

"He hired you to kill me? And you came to laugh at me first? Don't think about it!" King Richard drew his sword and slashed at Altaïr.

Altaïr sidestepped Richard's attack and took a few steps back.

"I didn't come to kill you, my target was him." Altaïr explained, wanting Richard to put down the sword.

Richard listened to Altaïr's words, stood where he was and did not continue to attack, and pointed his sword at Altaïr, "Then tell me quickly, who is this traitor? I will judge for myself!"

Altaïr uttered a name that somewhat surprised Richard, "Robert de Sable."

"My lieutenant?" Seeing Altaïr pointing at Robert beside him, Richard felt a little amused.

"He intends to betray." Altaïr's eyes on Robert also became sharp.

Richard laughed, "That's not what he said. He wants your people to pay for the havoc they caused in Acre City, and I support his actions. Some of my best subordinates were killed by your people." kill."

"It was we who killed them, and we had reason to do so. Listen to me: William de Montferrat, who tried to take Acre by force with his soldiers, and Ganila de Napros, He controls all those who rebel against him, indoctrinating them with his ideas, Seabrand, he is trying to blockade the port and stop your country from sending you any further support. They all betrayed you, they took orders from Robert ’” Altaïr said in one breath, until the smile disappeared from Richard’s face.

Richard didn't even think about it, and said with a straight face, "You expect to convince me with these absurd stories?"

"You know these people better than I do. Is it really surprising to you that they are up to something?" Altaïr asked rhetorically.

"Is this really the case?" At this time Richard was already a little shaken, and Robert felt that if he continued to remain silent, Altaïr might succeed, "Your Majesty, we are facing an assassin, and these guys are playing tricks. Masters of right and wrong, these are of course not true."

After Robert finished speaking, he took a special look at Altaïr, and he remembered who this guy was.

Altaïr heard Robert's words and blurted out "I have no reason to deceive you."

Robert smiled and looked at Altaïr, "Oh, but you have, you are worried about your small fortress, whether it can withstand the combined attack of the Saracens and the Crusaders?"

"The people I'm driving are the people of the Holy Land. If it is necessary to sacrifice myself in exchange for peace, I will not hesitate." Altaïr said righteous words.

Richard, who was watching the two talking, suddenly said, "Now we are in a strange situation, and you are all accusing each other."

Robert looked up at the sun in the sky, and it was almost noon, "We really don't have this time. I have to meet Saladin and ask for his assistance. The longer we delay, the harder it will be to succeed." Robert said I don't want to argue with Altaïr, the ending is the same anyway.

"Wait a minute, Robert." This Richard stood up, and he seemed to have some ideas.

"Why? Of course you won't believe him?" Robert meant, since you won't believe him, why don't you let me go.

Richard then said to him slowly, "In this predicament, I can't make a decision alone. I have to hand him over to someone smarter than me."

Robert said "thank you" to Richard as a matter of course.

Richard shook his head. "No, not you Robert."

Robert said strangely, "Who is that?"

Richard looked at the sky, then at the two people, "Leave it to the Lord to judge, make a choice through duel, God will of course stand on the side of justice."

Robert drew the long sword from his waist and pointed it at Altaïr, "If this is your expectation."

Richard waved his hand and asked the soldiers to back out of a circle for them.

Altaïr turned his head and nodded to Gao Long, this was a battle he couldn't refuse, and it was also a battle he wanted to solve Robert.

Gao Long backed away silently, and then Altaïr walked directly opposite Robert.

Robert's ferocious bald head showed an evil smile, "Alright then. Take up your weapon! Assassin!"

Altaïr also drew his long sword while he shouted, "It's time to get to know Robert."

As he said that, Altaïr rushed forward with a stride, aiming at Robert's wrist with a sharp sword.

Robert did not panic during Altaïr's sudden attack. With a twist of his right wrist, he not only avoided Altaïr's attack, but almost scratched Altaïr's arm.

Returning in vain, Altaïr took a step back, confronting Robert.

At this time, Robert took the initiative to attack, playing a sword game, and continuously attacked up and down.

Altaïr is worth stepping back and intersecting with the blade of his sword, his arm feels the vibration on the hilt of the sword, and Robert's mocking "ah, assassin, why are you so weak, it's not like you just now. It seems that God is on my side Isn't it?"

Hearing Robert's cynicism, Altaïr slammed Robert's sword blade and arm to the left forcefully, his own directly switched to holding the sword with his left, and his right arm elbowed into Robert's arms suddenly.

Robert, who had been hit hard in the chest, stepped back subconsciously, using his right hand to hold the sword on the ground so as not to fall.

Seeing Robert's blushing face, Altaïr couldn't help saying, "Yeah, it looks like God is on my side, not you."

Robert touched his chest with his left hand. Although his blood was not flowing, at least the bones were not broken, and there was no special injury, but there was still some pain.

Then he stared at Altaïr, straightened up, rushed towards Altaïr, and slashed at him with his sword.

Altaïr rolled over and opened this powerful sword, and even a large piece of soil under his feet was blown away, one can imagine how much strength Robert used.

Altaïr knew that Robert must be angry. Angry people will increase their strength and be fearless, but similarly, their thoughts and spirits are also more easily stimulated.

Even if Robert is the mastermind of the whole series of events, he cannot escape this human nature.

As an assassin, Altaïr's first requirement is patience. Only with enough patience can he succeed.
