After Giovanni decrypts the newly obtained pages of the Codex, they will be sent back to Monteriggioni through secret channels as usual and kept in the study of the Auditore Manor.
Giovanni assigned this task to Lu Xiao and Federico to carry out together, just in time for Lu Xiao to become familiar with the urban structure of Florence and the Brotherhood's intelligence flow channels.
When Lu Xiao picked up the original copy of the note from the desktop, the system that had been unresponsive for a long time suddenly started to make noises in his head.
"Reward: A chance to draw a lottery ticket above the world's outstanding level or a self-selected excellent level reward."
The sudden announcement of the mission caused Lu Xiao to pause. Giovanni noticed his unusual behavior and asked with some confusion: "What's wrong? Is there anything you don't understand?"
Lu Xiao's face remained unchanged and she pretended to be calm as she replied: "No, I just suddenly remembered some past events."
Giovanni nodded understandingly: "The deceased is gone. Please express my condolences. What you need to do now is to accumulate more knowledge and skills and make all preparations for returning to your hometown for revenge in the future."
Giovanni's unauthorized imagining left Lu Xiao speechless, but he happened to be borrowing the donkey from Poxia, nodded his thanks with a heavy face, and skipped the topic without further discussion.
Giovanni did not stare at the pain points of others without interest and continued to ask questions. At this moment, there was a roaring sound outside the courtyard of the mansion, and the two of them simultaneously turned their attention to the outside of the study.
Ezio and Federico were joking with each other in the atrium, and the two were still discussing a certain beautiful passerby they had struck up a conversation with before.
Petruchio followed the two brothers with a peaceful smile as always, while Claudia rolled her eyes at the two romantic brothers with a look of disdain.
With the return of his family, Giovanni's hard facial lines caused by the killing mission he had just completed gradually softened.
Lu Xiao took the opportunity to say goodbye to Giovanni, quietly avoiding the four brothers and sisters chatting animatedly in the courtyard of the mansion, sitting in the shadow of the building and quietly returning to his guest room.
Sitting at the desk, Lu Xiao immediately asked the system.
"System, what's going on with the side missions? Are they released randomly? Or are they automatically triggered when key props are obtained?"
System: "Side tasks will only be triggered when the host comes into contact with specific items and characters. Unlike world tasks that must be completed, whether the side tasks are completed or not is determined by the host."
"The rewards for completing side tasks are more generous than world tasks. The system recommends that the host completes them as much as possible within its capabilities."
The system divides all the skills and items that Lu Xiao can possess into stages.
The rubbish that does not count as damaged is, in ascending order from common, excellent, fine, outstanding, rare, epic and legendary.
Corresponding skill level, normal is equal to level F, and the highest legendary is S. There are no SS and SR in skills and items, let alone SSR. The best skills and equipment can only be rated at S+, and there is no higher level.
The excellence level and above prizes awarded by collecting Altaïr's Codex are converted into skill level C, which exceeds the highest level skill Lu Xiao currently possesses, level D clairvoyance.
In the world of novices, this reward can indeed be considered generous.
Without Isu blood, Lu Xiao cannot manipulate the Artifacts of Eden as freely as Ezio, Cassandra and others, and the Assassin's Creed world itself does not have many powerful weapons other than artifacts.
Supernatural power.
Relying on the accumulation of daily practice is now the only way Lu Xiao can see to improve his strength. The lottery opportunities given by side missions are undoubtedly very important to him.
As for the optional rewards at the elite level, unless they can accurately target the abilities or equipment that are particularly useful to Lu Xiao at that time, they will usually not be the first choice.
'Have you collected all Altaïr's Codex...'
Lu Xiao rubbed his somewhat stiff cheeks with both hands. Judging from the guaranteed lottery prizes at the Excellent level, it can be roughly inferred that this task is not easy to complete.
Altaïr's Codexes were scattered and buried throughout Italy by Domenico Auditore.
Although the land area of Italy is far smaller than that of Lu Xiao's motherland, blindly searching around the Apennine Peninsula is still like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Mario and Giovanni spent a lot of time searching when they were young, and the number of manuscripts they have recovered so far does not exceed 10 pages. Two of them were found by Giovanni when he went to Milan in the early years.
Considering the time span of the entire Assassin's Creed 2 series, Lu Xiao began to worry about her age.
'After completing the newbie world, I won't become a middle-aged uncle like the old pervert, right? I don't want my hairline to recede so quickly!'
"System, will time spent in the mission world make me older?"
"Yes, the mission world is also a real world. The time the host spends in any world will be fed back to his body. Please make reasonable plans on your own."
'really……'
Lu Xiao scratched his thick hair with a headache, "It seems that we can't follow the rhythm of the original game plot. Let's speed up the progress as much as possible."
'But just in case, maybe... you can make some insurance in advance?'
…
Medieval European dining customs were similar to those in ancient China, which emphasized eating but not talking.
Even Ezio, who usually chirped, said nothing during the meal, and the knife and fork in his hand tried to minimize the rude noises made when it came into contact with the plate.
No matter how high-spirited they are in daily life, Ezio and others have always been children who grew up receiving education from aristocratic elites. When needed, the etiquette education they have received can be perfectly reflected in them.
In contrast, Lu Xiao, who was preoccupied, didn't care so much about the unaccustomed dining noise.
Fortunately, everyone in the Auditore family knows that Lu Xiao comes from a distant ancient country in the East. It is understandable that the etiquette is not in place due to different customs.
Giovanni finished the meal first and wiped the corners of his mouth elegantly with a white napkin.
"Federico, tonight you will guide Lu Xiao and take him to see the beautiful night view of Feilengcui."
Federico, who had just put down his knife and fork, raised his eyebrows slightly. Seeing the meaningful look in his father's eyes, he nodded clearly.
"Okay, Father."
Ezio, who was wiping his mouth, said with some dissatisfaction: "Father, I too..."
"No [Biquge www.biqugexx.info] okay."
Giovanni stopped his second son's proposal with his eyes: "I have other work to give you, come to the study with me."
"Hey~" Ezio glared at Lu Xiao in annoyance: "Okay, father."
"Dingling~"
After everyone had finished eating, Maria rang the bell on the table, and a middle-aged head maid immediately opened the door and led several servants in to clear the table.
Lu Xiao left the restaurant under the leadership of Federico and went to the atrium of the mansion. The two of them sat on the chairs in the courtyard to enjoy the cool weather while waiting to eat after the meal.
Compared with Ezio, who used a trilogy to describe his life in Ubisoft, because he died young in the original plot, there is not much information about Federico, the eldest son of Giovanni, and Lu Xiao’s knowledge of him is limited to Mali.
Information provided by Austria.
After some exploratory communication, Lu Xiao found that Federico was a very smooth person and was not as lacking in emotional intelligence as mentioned in the information.
After chatting and resting for a while, Federico demonstrated how to climb to the roof with the help of the wall of his own courtyard, just like Giovanni's extremely skillful action pattern in the afternoon.
Lu Xiao was a little speechless about this, "Are everyone in your family used to being so high and low?"
Complaints remain complaints, but Lu Xiao still quickly followed Federico and climbed onto the roof.
"Come with me, I will take you to the pigeonhouse dedicated to the Brotherhood's external relations first."
'Doves? Do flying pigeons deliver messages?'
Lu Xiao touched his chin thoughtfully, 'It turns out that Europe is also playing this game at this time. Is it a technology spread by the Brotherhood in the East?'
