I returned to Letopolis to settle things with Taharqa, only to find him revealed as the Scarab. Moving through rooftops and traps, I picked off guards, fought heavy defenders, and confronted Taharqa directly. In the end his betrayal cost him his life and I walked away bloodied.
I rode to Letopolis after retrieving my gears as I had an unfinished business with Taharqa, aka the Scarab. And after getting to the location, I had to be careful this time as its not a friendly place for me anymore.
I noticed a lot of guards around but I was not gonna fight them all, I decided to get to the Scarab and assassinate him directly. But there were some guards that I had to eliminate on my way towards my target.
I noticed there was this brazier above a roof and I set a trap on it first so the mission don't get harder later, with reinforcements.
I shot another guard with an arrow there. Then I noticed one more of them at the other side of the roof, whom I eliminated when a heavy guard went to the other side, near the other dead body.
I went close to that heavy guard knowing he'd look for me after seeing the dead body and he was doing it. I took cover there first to understand his movements.
I decided to try an silent assassination on him so I went to him quietly and look how Bayek was assassinating a target. Such a lol glitch.
Well, the heavy guard didn't die this easily, I had to fight him more and to take down a heavy guard, I changed my weapon and tried a heavy weapon. The guard kept screaming to call for help but he didn't get any, sadly.
After taking down the heavy guard, I had eyes on my main target, how was like chanting or something below there. I couldn't try an air assassination from there so I was looking for another way.
But there were some guards who came to me first and before they could call anyone or warn the Scarab, I took them down and look what I was smashing at the end.
I had to be careful not to warn the Scarab as he may try to escape. After getting close to him on the above, I jumped on him and tried to air assassinate him when there were guards around.
Man didn't die from my blade, so he tried to fight me back but I didn't let him much chance in fighting me. I kinda smashed him with the big weapon.
When the Scarab was laying low, there came the guards to fight me and I took care of them before confirming the death of my primary target.
There came a lot more guards, both heavy guards and regular guards and I took them all down. I even tried some overpower kills there.
Then I went to the Scarab and made sure he died. So the man whom I thought a good companion, became my enemy and I had to make my hands dirty with his blood.
I'll show more of my photographic journey of the games soon, so stay tuned to my blog if you liked them.
The screenshots are taken by me personally from my gameplay and I borrowed the game's logo from DevianArt.
