Chapter 137 Don't be a chess piece, only a chess player!
After receiving Rorschach's affirmative answer, the three people present looked at him and suddenly became much softer.
Torres nodded with satisfaction, then stood up, reached out and patted Rorschach on the shoulder, expressing his approval:
"Very good, with the addition of you fresh blood, the Knights Templar will continue to guide human progress and bring order to this world."
"In a few days, when our traitor gentleman arrives, you can conduct the entry ceremony together and officially join the Knights Templar!"
Hearing this, Luo Xia raised his eyebrows, but pretended to be a little confused and asked:
"Mr. Traitor?"
"Oh, you don't know about this yet..."
After sitting down one after another, Torres explained: "Rosha, I have told you before, the thousand-year grudge between the Knights Templar and the Brotherhood of Assassin?"
Rorschach nodded.
Speaking of the assassin, Torres' brow frowned:
"Those killers who advocate chaos and disorder and who only hide in the darkness are our greatest enemies to enlighten the people and establish order in the world. But not every assassin is so firm in their own beliefs..."
"There is a traitor named Duncan Walpole who could not stand the backwardness and dissolution of the Assassin organization, and intends to abandon the darkness and turn to the light and throw himself into the arms of the great father of insight. Moreover, he claims to have brought important information from the Assassin organization!"
"Originally, we should have met here three days ago. But, as you can see, he was late..."
Hearing this, Rossia looked dazed, "So that's it..."
Although it appears so on the surface.
However, Rorschach knew very well that the assassin traitor Duncan Walpole was not just late, but had been buried on a small island in the Caribbean.
And another "Duncan Walpole" will come to meet them...
Just as Rorschach's thoughts were turning, Rogers, who was sitting beside him, expressed his concerns;
"Governor General, do you think he will suddenly repent? Or maybe he was discovered by other assassins and planned to betray the idea..."
Hearing this, Torres reached out to stroke his white beard, pondered for a while before shook his head, "I don't think it's possible. I've been in touch with him for a while. If I really want to regret it, I wouldn't choose to meet before meeting. We don't know whether he will be discovered."
"No matter which possibility it is, all we can do is wait..."
In the evening.
After having dinner and getting the "prey list" from Torres for the next two months, Rorschach walked out of the Governor's Mansion.
Looking down at the yellow envelope in his hand, Rorschach couldn't help but recall what Torres said to him before leaving:
"Rothar, the Templars in the Caribbean will have a rally tomorrow, and you can meet others at that time..."
Until this time, he realized that his plan to join the Knights Templar had completed the first step.
Next, he must make good use of these Templars who hide their desire to control everything under high-sounding reasons to achieve his goals...
...
The next day, Rorschach met with Decas in the bustling and lively Havana Market, and then came to a mansion in the residential area.
There have been many well-dressed men and women gathered in the mansion.
The men and women present were all Templars, belonging to the Templar Caribbean Score, and were all Torres' subordinates.
With the introduction of Decas and Rogers, Rorsch quickly integrated into the Templars' rally.
During this gathering, there were Spanish and British nobles, as well as thieves and privateers.
Among them, the names of several Templars reminded Rorschach of a side mission in the game:
Lucia Marquez, Hillary Flint, Kenneth Abraham, Kim Ran, and Julian Dekas, all of these five people have a key in their hands.
As long as you collect the keys from these five Templars, you can open a cage of mechanisms located in the secret base on the Great Inagua Island.
There was a skeleton bone and a set of Templar assassin suits.
He didn't know the story behind this skeleton.
Perhaps a Templar intends to betray the Knights Templars like Duncan Walpole, who betrays the Knights Templars and surrender to the Brotherhood of Assassins, but unfortunately was found and eventually imprisoned and died...
What caught Rorschach off guard was that in this distant West Indies, he actually met another "compatriot" from the far east.
After learning that Roxham called himself a nobleman of the Ming Dynasty, this oriental woman wearing Qing Dynasty women's clothing and tied her black hair into a bun, held a wine glass and found him.
The woman's name is Jinlan.
According to herself, after she broke up with her father, a general of the Qing Dynasty, she came to Europe to explore.
"Forgive me for taking the liberty, Lord Luo Xia, hasn't the Ming Kingdom been destroyed by the Qing Dynasty?"
Faced with Jin Lan's doubts, Luo Xia felt a little tighter and explained as usual:
"Yes, but we Han people will never succumb to those Tartars! So, we turned underground. Have you ever heard the name of the Heaven and Earth Society?"
Seeing the other party shook his head, Rorschach felt a little relaxed, and then began to use the rhetoric of fooling Torres, and added fuel to the fire and fooling Jin Lan.
"I came to Europe and came to find allies under the orders of the Emperor of Ming.
"We are developing our forces in secret, hoping that one day we will be able to counterattack the mainland and overthrow the rule of the Tatars..."
Under Rorschach's half-true performance, Jin Lan undoubtedly believed his nonsense.
After successfully overcoming this identity crisis, Rorschach spoke politely to the Templars while not forgetting to keep all the names of Templars present in his mind.
This is very precious information.
It is also an important bargaining chip for him to contact the Assassin Brotherhood and gain the other party's trust at that time.
As for whether these Templars will be assassinated by assassins at that time, it is not within Rorschach's consideration.
Not to mention, he is not familiar with these people.
Furthermore, if these Templars die, their status in the Templars will rise.
If all his subordinates die, Torres, as the highest master, can only rely on his capable subordinate who is both capable and powerful.
By then, he will definitely have much more resources than he is now.
The most important point is that the Knights Templar and the Brotherhood of Assassin are like black and white chess on the board, fighting each other.
And Rorschach never thought about whether to become a pawn on one side.
If you want to do it, be the chess player on this chessboard!
