To Four Thousand Years Later

v4 Chapter 11: lunatic

When Arrow had told him all he knew, Francis hissed him out.

Because of that kind of natural courage, Arrow didn't have the courage to resist Francis at all.

He cried and begged for mercy, and was dragged out of Master Verrocchio's house by Francis slowly and firmly. Seeing that he was about to go out, Leonardo told Francis that he killed three Pazzi's assassins and dumped his body in the alley, and asked him to go over and see if there was any Francis he knew who heard Lai. Leonardo, who actually said such a thing in such a relaxed tone, looked at him twice in astonishment.

He was not very surprised that Leonardo was able to kill three assassins with his bare hands without injury—in his perception, this was a routine operation.

Leonardo, who was exposed to fighting for the first time, took five minutes to fully learn his martial arts skills. In Francis's heart, Leonardo became a monster-like genius. Even if one day, he heard that Leonardo clamped the assassin's bullet with his hand, he felt that he would not be too surprised.

But... his nephew had never killed anyone before.

When he met the assassin on the road before, Leonardo used the pistol he got just yesterday. At a distance of nearly 50 meters, he fired thirteen consecutive shots and killed thirteen people accurately.

that time. Francis could also see this as a "Leonardo must be thinking of this as a gunslinger match" sort of situation.

But Francis, who was born in a gang, naturally knew very clearly in his heart: killing people with guns and killing people with weapons or even with bare hands requires a completely different determination and killing intent. He still remembers the scene when he killed someone for the first time.

At that time, the single-edged dagger in Naruo's hand was chopped on the neck of the person in front of him. So much so that the second sword was much lighter, and it didn't land on the neck, but on the shoulder. The strength was so weak that a sword could not even see the bones.

Seeing that the man's neck was cut and blood was coming in and out, but he was still looking at him fiercely, the young Francis was almost scared out of his wits and dared not move. If someone hadn't noticed that he was in a bad state and hurried over to rescue him, he might have died at that time. But Leonardo was even able to kill three well-trained and well-trained fighters with one against three counterattacks when the assassins attacked.

Could it be that geniuses are also different from ordinary people in their determination to kill? Or...someone taught Leonardo the killing technique when he was not home?

A name appeared in Francis' mind for a moment. But he didn't say much, and dragged Aero away.

He could foresee that perhaps Arrow would beg him to save his life, but that was impossible.

As a reward for telling him the list of traitors, Francis can give him a happy death and let him die as painlessly as possible.

But the betrayer will pay the price. At this moment, Francis was extremely determined.

A faint cyan fire flashed in his eyes. After watching the frizzy gang leader go out, Leonardo shrugged his shoulders at Master Verrocchio, and said casually: "Francis is always so frizzy.

"I grew up watching it.

Master Verrocchio smiled indifferently: "He used to be more frizzy." Leonardo raised his eyebrows and asked, "Master, I heard you mentioned Lorenzo earlier.

Verrocchio nodded sternly: "Lorenzo told me that he can talk to you.

Did you know that Lorenzo was assassinated a few days ago? "

"Heard it.

Leonardo nodded, and replied in a deep voice. Verrocchio took a deep breath and said in a low voice: "Then I guess, you must not know that Lorenzo has been assassinated four times this month.

…Ok? four times? Leonardo frowned suddenly, realizing the seriousness of the problem.

If it was only intercepted and assassinated on the return trip, it could be understood that the Pazzi family went crazy every day and tentatively wanted to get rid of the young and promising heir of the Medici family. But being stabbed consecutively within a month... This frequency is a bit too much. Things have developed to this point, and it is no longer a situation that can be explained by the degree of "testing".

Basically, it can be said that the two have completely torn their faces. It is only one step away from triggering a civil war.

"Yes, four times. Besides the well-known one, there was once poisoning at dinner; once his maid was bribed to try to assassinate him in his sleep. And once At this point, Verrocchio paused for a moment: "It was his brother who got a quick fix.

"He replaced Lorenzo's pillow with a pillow filling. Instead of soft cotton, his pillow was stuffed with a shroud, a shroud that once wrapped a corpse with a strange plague.

"If it wasn't for Lorenzo being very familiar with his pillow, I'm afraid he would also suffer from this incurable disease. Those who contract this disease will have pale and moist skin, and in the sun" and Surprisingly. After this incident was discovered, his younger brother who had an emergency and was recuperating at home committed suicide immediately. His mother also committed suicide together, and the four maids who served him were all strangled to death in the bedroom with scarves. Verrocchio said something creepy. Leonardo thought for a moment, and asked, "Master, do you have any clues?"

"Yes. Although relatively few...

Unexpected. Master Verrocchio nodded affirmatively: "So I thought from the beginning that those people might not just come for you. They might also come to kill me. They are a group. People...they Asked for something from the Grand Duke Medici, but the Grand Duke flatly refused them.

"And the mass death of the heirs of the Medici family did not appear until after that. So I think it is very likely that this is a group of people."

Master Verrocchio frowned, and sighed dissatisfiedly: "I just don't know what kind of agreement was reached between those people and those Pazzi. Or did they plan to kill a few people as a threat, and then continue to demand that from the Grand Duke?" Something. Because those people are too weird, I didn't dare to continue to tune "that master. asked Leonardo, "Do you know what they are asking for?" "

"Know."

Master Verrocchio nodded.

"That is the supreme treasure of the Principality of Sardinia - the sword of Emperor Zhili of the past, Joyeus, the sword of the world."
