Lu Tai walked down the main street. Based on some movies and TV shows, he judged that this place should be New York. It was early autumn now, neither cold nor hot, and the morning breeze felt very comfortable. Lu Tai put his hands in the pockets of his windbreaker and strolled down the street, browsing the city while beginning to ponder the entire movie.

The movie "The Assassin's Creed" is more complex in terms of plot compared to "Fist of Legend" and "Shaolin Soccer," but it's not hard to understand.

The male protagonist is Wesley Gibson (played by James McAvoy). Six weeks ago, he was still an unknown nobody. His annoying boss, a girlfriend who barely existed and was cheating on him, and the surrounding idle people all treated him like he was nothing. For him, life = boring and tedious work + a pile of troubles + getting by until death. Like most ordinary people, Wesley's greatest wish was to win the lottery and live a carefree life.

All of this changed when a mysterious woman named Fox, nicknamed "Fox" (played by Angelina Jolie), appeared. This sexy and wild beauty suddenly showed up in the convenience store where Wesley was shopping. Not only did she claim to know his father, but she also informed Wesley that his father had died tragically on the roof of the Metropolitan Building the day before, and even offered to recruit him into a mysterious organization!

It turned out that his father did not completely disappear when Wesley was young; he was actually one of the most lethal assassins in history! In an instant, Wesley's mundane world was completely overturned, and then "Cross" (played by Thomas Kretschmann) appeared, an assassin who wanted to kill Wesley.

It seemed to confirm every word Fox said. As the son of a top assassin, Wesley had long been a target of the Assassin's Guild.

With dangers ahead and enemies in pursuit, to avenge his father, Wesley hesitated but decided to join this secret organization called "The Fraternity." The Fraternity, since ancient times, has adhered to the principle of seeking violent order in chaos, using violence to control violence, and killing countless people.

The Fraternity follows a machine called the Loom of Fate, which weaves the names of those who should be eliminated. Members carry out assassinations according to the list. Under the strict training of Fox and the enigmatic leader Sloan (played by Morgan Freeman), Wesley not only unleashed his inherited astonishing potential but quickly became a world-class assassin, beginning to execute the death missions assigned by the organization.

However, everything seemed not as simple as it appeared. Later, he finally killed his father's murderer, "Cross," but surprisingly, the enemy claimed on his deathbed that he was Wesley's true father!

In the end, Wesley discovered that the Loom of Fate was completely controlled by Sloan. The Loom had already woven the names of all members of the Fraternity, including Sloan's. Sloan covered this up, and Wesley's father discovered this and left the Fraternity, starting to hunt down Fraternity members according to the list, which the Fraternity could not stop.

For this, Sloan sought out Wesley because he was the only one his father would not kill. The Fraternity trained Wesley into a top assassin and planned to eliminate him after he killed his father! For this, Wesley, to avenge his true father, stormed the Fraternity's headquarters.

And Fox, upon learning the truth, killed all remaining members, including herself, as she followed the Loom of Fate. Wesley, in the end, used his father's method to eliminate Sloan.

This is the entire story. Thinking to this point, Lu Tai immediately raised his wrist to check his watch. The system must have already given him the mission for this movie.

Sure enough, the watch displayed: Your time limit in this movie is 6 months. Complete the following tasks to return home. 1. Gain the trust of the male protagonist, Wesley. 2. Ensure the female protagonist, Fox, does not die. 3. Kill the main antagonist, Sloan, with your own hands.

Seeing these three tasks, Lu Tai's first feeling was that this movie journey was more challenging than the previous two. First, this is a high-level assassin movie, and he would face top-notch firearms and assassins, putting his life at greater risk than before. Second, the tasks were difficult. The first task, gaining Wesley's trust, was already very hard. He still didn't know the timeline of the movie. If Wesley was still working at the company, it would be easier. If he had already joined the Fraternity, the difficulty would be much greater, and he would first need to enter the Fraternity...

The remaining two tasks were also not easy. Ensuring Fox's survival and killing Sloan with his own hands meant that in the final showdown, he would have to storm the Fraternity's headquarters with Wesley!

Well, Lu Tai sighed. The tasks were already set, and lamenting was useless. He currently had 328 points of virtue and needed to draw a prize quickly, preferably one related to gun skills.

Thinking of this, he clicked on his virtue points, and the prize options instantly appeared. 1. Gun skills level 8 (permanent. Note: This is the highest level in this movie). 2. 200,000 units of the local currency. 3. One servant (6 months). 4. One free McDonald's lunch coupon. 5. Cooking skills level 8 (permanent). 6. An identity being hunted by the Fraternity (6 months. Note: This identity is the top target of the Assassin's Guild, and they will send their best to assassinate you). 7. One Mercedes-Benz sports car, and immediately learn driving skills level 6 (6 months).

Seeing these prize options, Lu Tai was much calmer than before. He looked around, walked to a small street, and clicked to draw. The watch began to spin rapidly.

"Gun skills level 8, gun skills level 8" Lu Tai kept muttering, praying.

"Beep~" The watch finally stopped. Lu Tai hurriedly checked: Congratulations, you have drawn the identity of being hunted by the Fraternity. 200 points of virtue deducted, leaving 128 points of virtue.

"Damn it!" The calm Lu Tai finally cursed. This was the first time he drew an identity-related prize. He never expected to draw it under such difficult conditions. What did this mean?

It meant that Lu Tai could no longer join the Fraternity and had become the Fraternity's top enemy. In such a situation, gaining Wesley's trust... was as difficult as climbing to the sky!

Moreover, the virtue points required for drawing in this movie increased by 50, reaching 200!

"Really bad luck!" Lu Tai put down his wrist and cursed to himself. This time, it was a true test, and he would have to navigate this world of assassins on his own.

He began to think calmly. His current identity was definitely under the Fraternity's watch, and they would send people to kill him at any time. It seemed he would have to sleep with one eye open. The assassins of the Assassin's Guild were everywhere, lurking in the shadows, and their bullets could even turn corners... thinking of this, Lu Tai felt a cold sweat on his back.

Since he didn't draw gun skills level 8, he could only use "Little Li's Flying Dagger" to counter the magical bullets! Lu Tai thought, involuntarily touching his waist.

But he couldn't just sit and wait to die, always on guard against assassins. If he did that, there would be no hope of completing the tasks. The first thing to do now was to find Wesley and see if he was still working at the company or had already joined the Fraternity. No matter what, he needed to complete the first task.

Where to find him? The movie didn't show the location of Wesley's company. Lu Tai thought, if this was New York, then Wall Street, where companies were most densely concentrated, would be the best place to start. Wesley's company wasn't small... hmm! Let's go to Wall Street first.

With that, Lu Tai gritted his teeth and walked out of the small street, determined to find Wall Street. He began asking passersby for directions.

Wall Street (Wall Street) is a street in the southern part of Manhattan, New York City, less than a mile long and only 11 meters wide. It is the location of some of the main financial institutions in the United States. Such a famous place was not hard to find. Lu Tai quickly learned the location and how to get there from passersby.

However, like in the "Shaolin Soccer" world, the first problem arose: he didn't have a single dollar. He couldn't even afford a taxi, let alone the subway or bus fare.

Lu Tai shook his head and could only walk to Manhattan. Fortunately, his location was not too far from Manhattan, so after about an hour, he reached the Manhattan area and then found his way to Wall Street.

On the way, he had no mood for sightseeing, his mind preoccupied with how to survive in this movie. He saw many beggars and street performers along the way. They all had small hats in front of them, containing scattered bills and coins. Lu Tai had an impulse to grab a few bills from the hats but finally resisted.

Such behavior would definitely deduct virtue points.

As he approached Wall Street, Lu Tai suddenly saw a convenience store, very similar to the one Wesley often visited in the movie. This confirmed that Wesley's company must be nearby. With a stroke of luck, he entered the convenience store, even though he wouldn't buy anything.

It was morning, and the convenience store wasn't very crowded, with only a few scattered customers browsing the shelves. Lu Tai pretended to look at the products, occasionally glancing at the cash register. He really hoped Wesley would appear...

Suddenly, Lu Tai froze! Through his training with "Little Li's Flying Dagger," he sensed a huge danger behind him! This danger was aimed at taking his life...
