Next, Ben saw Ezio standing on the wooden pole at the top of the church.
The map of Florence around him was updated.
Information like shops appeared on the map.
"Leap of Faith? Can you interact and jump down? Won't I die?"
Ben didn't really care about unlocking the map, since unlocking maps from high points wasn't anything new.
What surprised Ben more was that after the map was updated, a jumping interaction prompt appeared in his view.
Ben looked down.
Hmm… this height, at least 20 undead would die, maybe even more.
But despite the great height, Ben didn't feel much discomfort at this point.
On one hand, he had turned on lucid mode, and on the other hand, he had been well-trained in the previous "Uncharted" games.
This height was nothing.
Without much thought, Ben chose to interact with the Leap of Faith.
Then he saw Ezio open his arms and jump forward.
Ben's view followed Ezio as he fell rapidly, the scenery on both sides of the night sky flashing past, the howling wind echoing around Ben, as if he were really falling from a great height.
Fortunately, he had fallen countless times in "Uncharted".
And when Ezio jumped, it switched to a third-person view, and the graceful movements only felt cool.
He did a 360-degree spin in the air, and finally landed back-first into a cart of hay.
At this time, Vieri, who had fought with Ezio before and seemed like the villain, also appeared, leading his men to look for Ezio everywhere, seemingly wanting to take revenge.
Ben didn't care about this, because it seemed like a small monster setting in the city.
What Ben cared about more was that Ezio, who had just performed the Leap of Faith, seemed perfectly fine.
Such a high place, falling into this haystack and nothing happened?
That's not scientific!
Ben complained in his mind.
But he still controlled Ezio to climb out of the haystack and ran towards the mission location.
It wasn't a very long distance, and although it was night, there were still many pedestrians on the streets of Florence.
The clothes of the people on the street fully demonstrated the characteristics of the Renaissance, with all kinds of outfits.
In a word, they were strange and weird.
Before, many players said that it was unscientific that Ezio's assassin outfit could blend into the crowd without being recognized.
But in reality, it was normal not to recognize him, because the characteristic of clothing in the Renaissance was to divide the clothes into several parts, and each part was independently constructed, and finally assembled together to form a distinctive appearance.
There were also various fabrics, so you could feel that each character's clothing was different on the street.
This was what surprised Ben the most, he didn't find any NPCs wearing the same clothes, at least he hadn't discovered it yet.
At the same time, unlike the more unique styles of the German and Spanish periods, the style of clothing on the Apennine Peninsula during this period mainly came from the fabric.
The textile industry and commercial trade were very developed on the Apennine Peninsula, and for some wealthy people, clothing often mixed woven cotton and gold velvet, so the fancy appearance of the assassin outfit was not very eye-catching.
Of course, the style was indeed cooler.
Ben, who was full of emotion, quickly arrived at the mission location: the Vespucci residence.
'Cristina!'
'Who is it?'
'It's me!'
'Ezio! I should have known.'
With Ezio's shout, a window in the attic opened, and a beautiful woman in pajamas looked at him in surprise.
'Can I come in?'
'Suit yourself, but only for a minute.' Cristina said casually as she turned around.
'A minute is enough.' Ezio smiled.
'That's right.' Cristina's voice came from the second floor.
Hearing this, Ezio's expression froze: 'Wait… that's not what I meant!'
Ben in the game couldn't help but be amused.
As an adult, he immediately understood.
It really was a light and humorous game.
Controlling Ezio to climb to the second floor, Ben felt a little expectation for what was to come.
The agile Ezio flipped into the second floor, looked at Cristina sitting at the dressing table, and waved with a smile.
"Come here…"
Cristina glanced at Ezio, but still stood up from the stool and walked to Ezio's side.
Then Ben's view switched to third-person, and an interaction prompt appeared in front of him.
"Damn! There's this part!" Ben looked at the two people in the game hugging and kissing, and became a little excited.
Although Nathan and Elena had a kissing scene in "Uncharted" before, it was purely watching without interaction.
But in "Assassin's Creed", there was corresponding interaction, and the sense of immersion immediately increased!
Ezio and Cristina passionately kissed in the game.
"Oh… Ezio."
Then the interaction prompt appeared, and Ben saw Ezio's hand start to get restless in the game.
Slowly reaching towards Cristina's clothes, at the same time Ben's camera moved out a little bit.
In Ben's view, he could clearly see Cristina's snow-white back.
Then a prompt button appeared in the game again, and Ezio picked up Cristina and walked towards the bed, and the two fell on the bed.
But Ben was stunned at this time, because his camera in the game had unknowingly moved outside the window.
And at this time, Ezio turned his head and blew on the candle, and the room fell into darkness.
A beautiful BGM melody sounded, drowning out the voices of Ezio and Cristina.
He couldn't see or hear.
"Wait! I want first-person view!"
"I paid for it! I want a paid view!"
Watching the camera slowly move away, and the night slowly turn into day, Ben was completely Spartan.
He thought there would be some benefits!
But this is it?
Pants down and this is it?
At the same time, Ben noticed a small detail, that is, from the time Ezio climbed in to the time his camera was moved out.
The time seemed to have passed exactly one minute!
"So limited to one minute, means me!?"
Ben in the game felt very upset, especially watching Ezio being chased all over the street by the guards called by Cristina's father, which made Ben even more upset.
"I didn't see anything good! It's my turn to operate when I'm being chased! That's not fair!"
But despite shouting, Ben still controlled Ezio to run through the streets and alleys of Florence.
But while being wanted, the pursuers behind him became even more numerous.
"Right, climb up!" Seeing the climbing points next to him, Ben's eyes lit up, and he climbed onto the roof next to the market stalls.
But soon Ben discovered a key problem.
"Damn, you guys can climb roofs too!?" Ben was directly shocked when he saw the pursuers climbing the roof behind him.
Fortunately, these pursuers didn't climb as fast as he did. When they climbed to the highest point, these people lost sight of him, and Ben saw a yellow warning box displayed on the small map.
Obviously, he needed to run out of this warning box, just like the wanted state in "Red Dead Redemption".
Looking around, Ben didn't find any place to go, but the house he was on was right next to the Arno River.
Without thinking too much, Ben directly controlled Ezio to jump into the Arno River.
After swimming forward for a while, he waited under the bridge for a while before Ben realized that the wanted status had been cancelled.
But then Ben discovered a very awkward situation, that is, he couldn't climb up the bridge.
At least he couldn't find a place to go ashore nearby.
"This isn't 'Assassin's Creed'! This is clearly the daily life of an unruly second-generation." Ben couldn't help but complain in his heart.
No paid view, he had to run away himself, and until now, he wasn't like an assassin at all, but being chased like a dog.
What could he do now? Swim then, find a place to go ashore.
