Chapter 24 Aircraft
"Damn it, I would have been to Venice earlier. Now I must go back and contact Antonio immediately to see if there is any remedy. Alas, if I could find a mentor." Egio could only watch them leave, thinking angrily in his heart.
"Hello, handsome guy! How have you been doing these days? Are you just here to see me?" Rosa said teasingly when she saw Egio who hurried into the Seita Palace.
"I'm sorry, dear Rosa, I don't have time to play now. I'm here to find Antonio, and it's a matter of urgent need!" Egio said panting.
"Oh, Antonio! Egio has something important to come to you!" Rosa responded and shouted at a room in Seta Palace.
"Egio, what's going on?" Antonio asked quickly down the stairs.
"Carlo Grimadi and Silvio, Barbarig and Barbarig family members are all under Rodrigue Pocchia. They plot to poison the Governor of Venice and then use their men to replace the Governor's position, and then they can completely rule Venice." Egio said hurriedly.
"Damn it, they will probably frame us for the murder of the Governor." Antonio suddenly thought of the Templar's backhand.
"So please be sure to help me, and do you know where the tutor is now?" Egio asked.
"I don't know where the tutor is, but my people and I will help you. But Egio, I want to remind you that this matter is not easy. After the assassin invasion a few years ago, the Governor's palace was replaced with very strong iron gates, which were not open at all, and there were also many guards." Antonio reminded.
"I believe I will definitely have a solution." Egio said affirmatively.
"Haha, Egio, this is why we like you." Rosa, who was standing by, also had a very titilling voice, which broke the original rigorous atmosphere.
"Well, Egio, now let's go and scout the Lord's Palace to see if there is any breakthrough. Maybe if we are lucky, we can find a way to enter. I will know a large bell tower of a church near the Lord's Palace. Maybe we can climb up from here?" Antonio said to Egio.
"Okay, Antonio let's go and have a look." After Egio said that, Antonio ran in front.
When Egio and Antonio arrived at their destination and patrolled them.
"How do you think?" Egio asked.
"No, we can't climb to the Lord's Palace here, we can't get in at all. And if we force ourselves to break through, I feel that when we deal with these guards, the governor has been murdered by them." Antonio said in a corner near the Great Bell Tower, which is also facing the front door of the Lord's Palace.
"We're looking around." After Egio said that, he ran around the Lord's Palace, while Antonio followed quietly.
"Damn it, it's not OK. There are too many archers around here. Not to mention the distance is too far. Even if the distance is close, we probably were shot into hedgehogs before we crawled over." Antonio said. At this time, they were patrolling the upper half of the archers' palace at a dozens of far-reaching viewing points in the northeast corner of the lord palace, and found that the surrounding area was full of archers.
"Looking," said Egio.
Finally, when they were walking around the back of the Lord's Palace, they found that there were no soldiers here and they could easily climb to the Lord's Palace.
"Antonio can climb up here," said Egio.
However, when they climbed to the Lord's Palace, they found that the top of the Lord's Palace was covered with iron fences, not only high but also very sharply grinded, just like a handful of extended sword bodies and sword tips, making people unable to start.
"Look at Egio, there are Mochinico and Carlo." Antonio said, pointing to the lord's palace.
Egio immediately looked at it and saw that the two of them seemed to be arguing something, but in just a few seconds they walked in, but it also made Egio feel relieved. It seemed that the governor had not been killed yet.
"Egio, this is simply impossible now. If you want to quickly enter the Lord's Palace without disturbing or alarming the soldiers, unless you will fly like a bird." Antonio said in annoyance on the roof of the Lord's Palace.
"Wait...Birds, when I have me, I'll find a friend, Leonardo da Vinci." Egio said mysteriously, making Antonio next to him puzzled.
"Leonardo, I need your help? Can this thing be used?" Egio took Antonio to Leonardo's studio.
"Oh, welcome to Egio, what did you just say?" Leonardo gave Egio a hug with enthusiasm.
"Leonardo, I mean, can this thing be used? Can it fly?" Egio said, pointing to the glider beside him.
"I'm sorry Egio, I don't know either. This is just a prototype, a design blueprint. It has not been tested yet. You must know that this is too dangerous. To start it, you must jump off the tower! No one will do this unless he is a lunatic!" Leonardo said helplessly.
"Leonardo, I think you have found this lunatic." Egio said, stopping Antonio who was about to speak to stop him.
Finally, after a fierce discussion, everyone agreed, but they chose a sparsely populated tower nearby and all the ocean for testing.
"Okay, now teach me how to use this?" Egio said.
"Egio, have you ever seen birds flying? You should know that their bodies are not lighter than air. Flying emphasizes elegance and balance. All you have to do is to use your body weight to control the altitude and direction of the flight. Good luck to you, Egio said, "Leonardo said in an expert tone, but it also made Egio complain in his heart. What you said is similar to what you didn't say.
"Huh~~oh~~"
The air around the air formed a flow of air in Egio's ears and made Egio feel refreshed. You should know that flying from ancient times to the present is a huge dream of mankind.
"Wait, why I've been landing? It's ridiculous. I'm still a long way from the palace. Damn, I've given up! I don't want to sacrifice here before assassinating the Templars." Egio had to go back helplessly and angrily, landing on a flat ground.
"Oh my God, I can't believe it, I can't believe it. It flew up, it really flew up, Egio, I succeeded." Leonardo shouted excitedly at Egio who was walking around the room in the studio.
"Yes, but it didn't fly far enough!" Egio said distressedly.
"Oh, Egio, what else do you want? You know that my original design didn't consider the problem of distance. Well, okay, I'm looking at my design drawings, maybe I can find a solution." Leonardo said, while checking his glider design drawings in the room.
"Not good, Egio, my guys have found that Carlo has got the **, and is now in the Lord's Palace. We must hurry up." Antonio walked in and said anxiously.
"Oh, I was originally entrusted with this thing that I had on Leonardo, but I didn't expect it to be a waste." Egio said with some anger.
"Hey! This is not a machine problem! It is mine! I checked my design blueprint and found that there is no possibility of extending the flight distance, damn it!" Leonardo also said distressedly.
"Wait, I'm such a genius, haha!" Leonardo looked at the waste paper that he threw just now into the burning fireplace, and thought about how to lengthen the flight distance.
"What's wrong with Leonardo?" Egio and Antonio asked in confusion.
"The heat rises, just a fire needs to heat the air under the wings, so that the aircraft can be lifted up." Leonardo said as he hurriedly wrote on the design drawing.
"Leonardo, I really don't understand what a fire is for?" Egio asked.
"No, Egio, it's not a fire, but a lot, it's covered in many places in Venice so that you can fly to the Palace of Lords." Leonardo said without raising his head, and at the same time, he kept circled and dotted on the map of Venice.
"Egio, my people can help you do this, but the guards of these places must be killed, and I will tell my people to control the areas you have dealt with and let them get the fire in place, but Egio must be done before the sun sets, and then we gather in the tower just now." Antonio said, patting Egio's shoulder.
"Don't worry, it's very simple." Egio said and turned away.
After an hour, Egio arrived at the tower, and Leonardo was already waiting for where he was.
"Egio, you did it, it's so beautiful!" Leonardo sighed as he looked at the night view of Venice where a lot of flames appeared on the tower.
"Yes, but I hope your idea works. We don't have much time left." Antonio said.
"No problem, Egio, all you have to do is fly over the fire when the aircraft is about to land, and then the heat of the fire will support you to rise." Leonardo said.
"Egio, you have to be careful. I don't know why it's full of archers tonight. You must be careful, otherwise you will really go and never return this time." Antonio said worriedly.
"Is that so? Then I really wish I could use my sword when I fly," said Egio.
"Oh, actually, Egio, you can use your legs when flying. You can kick their heads hard with your legs. Of course, you have to get close enough to ensure that you are not shot by the archer." Leonardo said, but this made people feel speechless after hearing it.
"Oh, Leonardo, you're really... Forget it, I wish me good luck!" Egio shook his head helplessly, then controlled the aircraft and jumped down from the tower.
"Egio, you must come back alive!" Leonardo and Antonio said silently as they looked at Egio flying in the night sky.
