西米恩·普莱斯（Simeon Price，出生于1825年前后），原英国军人，刺客兄弟会成员，于十九世纪末在欧洲多地行动。

西米恩是数学家艾达·洛夫莱斯的儿时伙伴，后入伍英国陆军，作为第74步兵团中的一员随英国皇家海军伯肯黑德号开赴大英帝国于1851年对科萨王国第八次战争的战场。在伯肯黑德号沉没时，西米恩遇到了法国刺客亨利·埃斯科菲耶。在亨利的劝说下，西米恩决定叛出军队，前往维也纳加入兄弟会。

为隐藏身份，西米恩化名“杰克·斯特劳”，在担任刺客北欧各分支联络员奥斯卡·凯恩处担任学徒。这一时期，他挫败了名为“魔法师”的神秘人物的计划，先后阻止了对弗朗茨·约瑟夫一世的刺杀与奥尔西尼事件。西米恩还得到了法国杂技演员皮埃蕾特·阿尔努的协助。这位让艾达·洛夫莱斯用于预测未来的数学方法——“历史引擎”免于落入“魔法师”手中的姑娘后来成为了西米恩的学徒。发现“魔法师”实际就是正与圣殿骑士合作的凯恩之后，西米恩杀死了昔日的导师，将有关历史引擎的笔记藏在了圣殿骑士无法染指的地方。

接下来数年时间里，西米恩协助俄罗斯刺客兄弟会对抗着隶属于圣殿骑士、压迫民众的罗曼诺夫王朝。他还尝试从前往埃及与法国的圣殿骑士手中夺取伊甸安卡。在追寻神器的过程中，西米恩于普法战争之中参与了巴黎的防守。西米恩虽然未能夺得所寻找的伊甸碎片，但与圣殿骑士孔斯坦策·冯·维斯莱之间达成了和约，终止了冲突。

西米恩最后成为了孔斯坦策的恋人，帮她逃出了圣殿骑士组织，又引荐她加入苏黎世刺客兄弟会。三年后，西米恩怀疑孔斯坦策对圣殿骑士忠心未死，带着刺客的全部知识重投圣殿骑士的怀抱。由于先前做出了误判，西米恩遭到兄弟会的边缘化，只能够刺杀低级别的圣殿骑士。1889年的世博会上，西米恩将功补过，挫败了孔斯坦策利用历史引擎操纵兄弟会炸毁埃菲尔铁塔的阴谋，最终重伤了曾与自己热恋的对方。

生平经历

早年生活

1825年，西米恩·普莱斯出生在西伦敦的伊灵，父亲经营着一家酒馆，后来在拜伦夫人于当地开办的学校里上学。六岁的时候，大家发现他是个特别聪明的学生，就连校长也没有办法给他上课。拜伦夫人注意到西米恩才思敏捷，于是带他回家，让他监视当时十六岁的艾达，吩咐他向自己报告艾达的一举一动。西米恩虽然按照拜伦夫人的要求监视着艾达，却拒绝告密，结果被拜伦夫人扫地出门，从此再也没有上过学。

西米恩成长的过程中，大部分时间都在父亲的公共澡堂里干活，给人倒酒、搬运货物、打扫卫生。然而，西米恩与兄长以及父亲等家里人关系不好。在忍受父亲的欺凌一段时间后，西米恩离开了伊灵，来到了伦敦，为了生计什么工作都做，同时还在晚上自学。几年之后，西米恩在伦敦城里的一场科学演示会上与艾达见了面。两人就此成为密友，经常一起在海德公园骑马。然而，随着艾达的健康恶化，不得不居家不出，两人失去了一同出门闲逛的机会。

服役与叛逃

工作数年之后，西米恩在1847年参军入伍。 他最终被分配到第74步兵军团，升任上等兵。服役期间，西米恩与二等兵索耶·哈尔福德成为了朋友。

1851年，西米恩随军团搭乘英国皇家海军的伯肯黑德号前往南非，参加英国与科萨王国之间的战争。西米恩深夜与哈尔福德闲谈时，航经开普敦的伯肯黑德号撞上了一块巨大的岩石。舰船随即开始沉没，西米恩听从格里姆斯中尉的命令去把船上的马放掉丢进海里。不久之后，一个戴兜帽的男子出现，他放倒了格里姆斯，与西米恩一同救援船舱里被水淹没的水手与士兵。在救出一些人之后，那个戴兜帽的人鼓励西米恩弃船逃跑，保住自己的性命。然而，西米恩坚持要留在兜帽人身边，确保能找到船一起安全离开。

效力凯恩

伯肯黑德号沉没一年之后，西米恩化名“杰克·斯特劳”，在亚历山大工作。确认时机成熟之后，西米恩动身前往维也纳。抵达维也纳之后，西米恩四处调查，最后在格拉本附近一家酒馆打听到曾有名叫奥斯卡·凯恩的人说过他四处打听的话。于是，他在不久之后见到了来自爱尔兰的凯恩。凯恩告诉西米恩，自己还有他先前在船上遇到的兜帽人都是刺客兄弟会的成员。两人交谈一番后，凯恩为西米恩提供了住处。西米恩可以在凯恩的教导下了解刺客兄弟会。西米恩欣然应允。

After being fitted by the tailor and Kane's acquaintance, János Libényi, Price learned about the life and history of the Assassins while being tasked to secretly spy on a number of citizens. After successfully completing the task, Price and Kane climbed the stairs atop St. Stephen's Cathedral, where Kane tasked Price to climb down from the outside. After a few hazards and lost footings, he climbed down safely as he met Kane below. After completing the descent, he and Kane went to have breakfast. However, while reading the news, Price learned of Ada's death.

与圣殿骑士见面

At a winter party hosted by the Baron Julius Jacob von Haynau, Price and Kane arrived and soon met with the baron. After meeting with von Haynau, Price and Kane were soon introduced to Countess Konstanze von Visler. Soon, the conversation between the four became shocking to Price as he heard of the baron's conquest and his cruel torture against the rebels of the Hungarian Revolution of 1848. Soon, the group was met by Karl Mayr, the baron's lawyer, who concurred with Haynau's opinion. Price soon heard how they were revitalizing Vienna and how they were personally uprooting the tailor and his sister's home for their construction.

Price was invited to dance with the countess as he thought of the atmosphere to be suffocating. However, he noticed Mayr and Kane head to a private room and followed once his dance ended. Within the room, he caught sight of Mayr strangling Kane and then stabbed him to release Kane. Before Mayr could attack, Price grabbed his razor and slit Mayr's throat. After retrieving Mayr's blood, Price and Kane left the party secretly. Riding home, Price was told that the men were Templars and that it was a test to see if Price could kill in the shadows. While leaving, Price was assured that the Templars' time would come.

Afterwards, Price headed to Nachzehrer Cellar and soon met with János Libényi and his friend and butcher Joseph Ettenreich. The tailor admitted that he was going to give up to Mayr's demands but Simeon revealed that Mayr died at his end and his extortion has ended. Although Libényi was shocked, Price joined a grateful Libényi and spent the night drinking inside the tavern.

The next day, Price was invited to a presentation and met with Kane and Konstanze on her new innovative drill. Powered by Kane's power cell, Price and the audience watched as he later asked Kane of their business with her house. Being told they're hiding in plain sight, he realized von Visler is also a Templar. Afterwards, he spoke with the countess once more, but cut it short due to his discomfort. Leaving the party, he found himself on the streets on Vienna atop a city bastion. Below, he saw Ettenreich running towards a waiting Libényi with a knife. Trying to stop him, it was too late as Libényi stabbed the Austria Emperor Franz Joseph I in the neck.

困惑

Simeon and Joseph restrained a numb Libényi as soldiers take the wounded emperor away. Soon, as János was taken captive, Price met with Margit about the reasons but she told him that he felt rebellious even more within Vienna. Meeting and talking with Kane about the Brotherhood's possible involvement, he asked to free his friend as Oscar agreed and even offered to financially support Margit. At night, both planned to save Libényi as Price was to distract the guards as Kane was going to set the tailor free. However, the distraction did not work as Simeon was arrested for being a "drunk" nuisance. The next day, Price was bailed out by Kane, who informed him that Libényi was hanged.

Saddened, Simeon ventured Vienna alone until he heard of a troupe's finale act, the Flying Flame, using his real name in the performance from Joseph. Going inside the troupe's area after hours, he was soon stopped by Major Wallin as Pierrette Arnaud saw the altercation. Price wanted to know who has been asking as Arnaud asked for his release. Within a tearoom, both he and Pierrette talked about Ada, her notes, and stopping the "Magus." Helping her, Price took the notes in order to have Kane decipher them as Arnaud introduced herself to him.

Originally, Simeon went to discuss and analyze whether he can trust Kane. Within their talks, he learned of the Precursors, the artifacts they left behind and how both Templars and Assassins try to find or revitalize these items. However, with Libényi's death weighing on him, he could not share Ada's notes with Kane as he left to think by himself. He soon met Pierrette at the Elizabeth Bridge, only to tell her he cannot decipher the notes and that he wants no more contact. Although Arnaud understood, Price lost the notes to her as she escapes and vows to find the Magus herself. Afterwards, Price met with Kane again and states his leave to figure things out. As Kane bid "Simeon" farewell, Price soon realizes that Kane knew his name all along.

科莫湖

By 1854, Simeon traveled to a villa near Lake Como and found himself hosted by the villa caretaker, Laura. After three weeks of upkeeping, he and Laura became involved romantically. By the summer of 1855, both welcomed another visitor, Oliver Fraser, who recognized "Straw" as he revealed that he deserted the army after the Battle of Balaclava. When a storm came, they all met another visitor, Felice Orsini, who tells of his recent escape and his life as an Italian revolutionary. However, all became wary of the possible Italian soldiers after Orsini.

The next day, Simeon, Laura, and Oliver were met by visiting soldiers, who were looking for Orsini. While Price tried to eliminate stealthily, Orsini caught their attention by trying to escape. Luckily, with help from Fraser and Laura, all the soldiers were subdued permanently. He and Oliver dragged the bodies away from the villa and staged a scene while Laura cleaned up the mess. Afterwards, after Orsini left, the rest of them drank to their survival. However, he heard from Fraser that Orsini had help from the "Magus" and was heading to Paris to meet other revolutionaries. Knowing this, Price looked to Laura as he knew he had to leave.

加入刺客

Arriving in Paris, Price climbed atop the Gare de l'Est and viewed the city, only to be met by Assassin Amira Benyamina. Realizing both had Assassin ties, he was brought below the train station and met fellow Assassin Michel Moulin and Henri Escoffier, who was the hooded individual he met on the HMS Birkenhead. Talking with them, Price realized that Kane already knew who he was as he sent Henri to recruit. Nevertheless, he informed them of a recent escapee named Orsini and his ties with a possible Templar called the Magus. While they heard his concerns, Price was offered a chance to continue his training with Amira, to which he agreed.

In the summer, Simeon traveled with Amira to Versailles as he was brought for his final task: a leap of faith into the city's waters. Looking for anything, he reached the bottom and retrieved mud for Amira. Believing he failed, Price was told he saw what he needed to see as he was now inducted into the Brotherhood.

奥尔西尼事件

Within three years, he found himself atop the theater opera of Rue le Peletier as he watched for any sign of Orsini. He soon saw both French Emperor Napoleon III and his wife arrive at the theater. However, he soon witnessed a bomb go off by the royal carriage. Although the emperor and his wife were unscathed, Price lost balance while numerous bystanders were injured. After gaining stability, he soon spotted Pierrette riding towards a bomber. While Arnaud disarmed the bomber, Price jumped to catch the loose bomb. Yet, he injured himself while seeing Arnaud knocked out by the bomber.

教导皮埃蕾特

Simeon soon saved Pierrette and took her to the underground base under Gare de l'Est. Once Pierrette woke up, he asked her about her presence as they discussed their investigations together. He tells her to leave but Arnaud remained adamant to stay and find the Magus. Reluctant, Price offered her to train her to which she accepted. However, he struggled on Arnaud's training and learning the Magus' real identity. After some time, Price, Arnaud, Moulin, and Benyamina soon came to the conclusion that Kane was the Magus, due to Arnaud's information of his early arrival before looking for the Eye.

寻找凯恩

Soon, Simeon and his apprentice looked over Vienna for Kane, but found nothing. After Arnaud attained information of his location in London, he told her to stay put as Kane was his problem. However, Arnaud's promise to Ada made him reconsider as he allowed her to join him on their mission to stop Kane. By 1861, once they arrived in London, they stayed with Elizabeth Siddal and her husband Dante Gabriel Rossetti. Luckily, Simeon soon found evidence of an Eye being kept in the British Museum and knew Kane would be there. Leaving Arnaud behind, he went alone to the museum.

Within the museum, Price ventured within the Assyrian section, where Kane spotted and talked to him. Price was told the truth of how Kane influenced Orsini and Libényi, only to be experiments for his inventions. He was soon offered to join his former mentor for a new future. Initially, Simeon declined. However, he was given an ultimatum by Kane of either joining or being arrested for desertion. Seeing a slight opportunity, Price fought Kane as he slashed his shoulder. However, as Kane escaped, he tried to find Kane while being taunted by his former mentor. After dodging the police, Simeon soon tailed Kane to the Reading Room. Before he could stop Kane, he was soon found and arrested by Price. Trying to escape, Price jumped badly from a walkway and broke his leg as he was ultimately arrested.

牢狱生活

Taken to Millbank Prison, Simeon had his leg reset as he analyzed his possible escape to find Kane and stop Arnaud from doing something reckless. However, after a week, he met and was shocked to see an alive Halford, who survived the shipwreck and had been discharged after horrible military jobs. He was told by Halford that he was going to aided in his trial. Realizing there cannot be any other visitors, Simeon asked Halford to take a letter from him for Pierrette. Nearing Christmas, he learned that Pierrette left for Dublin but was skeptical due to her rushed response.

By 1862, Price was taken to the Horse Guards for his trial as he saw Halford accompany him while noticing Countess Konstanze there. While listening to the defense's witness, Lieutenant Grimes, state he was a coward, Price and Halford accuse him of not taking responsibility for the calamities of the shipwreck himself. Once he was sworn in, Simeon began his tirade of how recruits are swayed by money to join while not knowing the truth of deployment. He admitted that he saved himself and his fellow men and if that made him a coward, so be it. After his testimony, a conflicted Price sat with Halford as the court decided his fate.

However, Price was soon declared innocent and set free. Shocked, he soon met with Byron Ockham, who admitted to sway the judge to free him, for the sakes of his late mom Ada and Pierrette. After being released, he was congratulated by other fellow soldiers in the courtroom.

猎杀凯恩

At the Red Lion, Simeon met with Dante as they discussed Pierrette's location and current state, which was malnourished and bloodied. Within their conversation, he met model Fanny Eaton, who mentioned her husband drove a man named Kane earlier to Bath. Realizing Kane's location, Price left the pub as he was quickly met by Arnaud. Reconvening together, they discussed recent events as they prepared to attack Kane. As Arnaud offered her troupe as backup, Price realized that he has allies within his old soldier days.

Within days, atop Bath Abbey, Simeon spotted Kane and his henchman enter an alley as he descended to meet Arnaud and his allies. Going into the alley, he and Hugh Robinson found a bunker and opened the closed entrance. Price asked to go inside alone as the rest stayed behind. Inside, he found Kane, who found no Eye underneath Bath and admitted to being aligned with the Templars only for their innovations. Offered to join Kane again, Price refused once more. Immediately, Kane and his men started to shoot at Price, which instigated a shootout above them in the alley.

Caught off guard, Price was pushed back by Kane as he fell into a trap hole. Feeling trapped, he watched as one of Kane's men aimed his gun at him. Luckily, the man fell dead from Pierrette's gun as she saved her mentor. Soon, both gunfights combined and Price and his allies were overpowering them. Unfortunately, Price soon found Kane, who had just severely assaulted Byron. Watching Kane fire his unloaded gun at Tillie Wallin, Price and his allies cornered Kane. Yet, they backed once Pierrette's surprise attack turned Kane to take her hostage. Although Hugh and Ariel Fine tried to lasso Kane, the lasso became loose due to a living henchman coming in at the last minute.

Within moments, Price saw Pierrette restrain Kane herself as they both fell over the bunker's walkway. The walkway collapsed as the bunker's constitution started to crumble. As he checked on Pierrette, he saw Kane bleeding and motionless. While everyone else escaped, Price moved towards a weak Kane, who stated to him, "Don't be weak." Instantly, he stabbed Kane in the neck and took his blood as evidence. Leaving the bunker, Price saw the room fall apart and bury Kane.

魔法师的影响

Back at the Rossetti's home, both Simeon and Pierrette met with Dante and offered their condolences for Lizzie's death. During Siddal's wake, he was soon approached by the Countess von Visler, who demanded Arnaud and Ada's notes. As Pierrette entered in with a gun to Konstanze's back, Price and his apprentice stayed silent on Pierrette's claim of destroying Ada's notes. Watching the countess pay her respects and leave, Simeon told Arnaud that he must inform both the British and Parisian Brotherhoods of Kane and the Templars' plan. However, he also told her about his plan to leave London and start anew elsewhere, due to wanting to be incognito. As Arnaud understood, he still accompanied her with one last night together in London.

俄罗斯行动

After Kane's death, Simeon ventured to Russia and began to aid the freedom fighters against Tsar Alexander II of Russia. However, one of his fellow Assassins Dmitry Karakozov failed on his attempt against the tsar and was executed. As a response, he helped Karakozov's family stay safe from the secret police. While there, he heard of the existence of the Ankh being with Hermeticist Helena Blavatsky, who offered it upon their first meeting. However, the next time, he asked for it while she claimed it was stolen from her.

追寻安卡

Simeon traced the Ankh's whereabouts to the Templar Armen Kazan, whom he tracked to a cave near a railroad line. There, he met with his former apprentice Pierrette and her fellow Assassins Safiya El-Nadi and Gamal Sabry. Conferring notes, Simeon agreed to join groups as he detailed Kazan being with twelve more Templars with the Ankh. In the night, they ventured into the cave at another entrance and came across statues of Osiris, Set, Horus, and Isis. While Gamal spoke of their story, Simeon noticed Pierrette uncomfortable and tried to ease her tensions. However, they all saw Pierrette leave them in the dark while Simeon tried to navigate the cave by himself.

Although lost in the dark, Simeon found both Safiya and Gamal again and found Pierrette restrained by the few Templars left while the Ankh emitting a light onto one of the cave's pictures. Fighting against Art Hennighan, Simeon was one of the witnesses who saw a horse resurrected from the Ankh's beam. However, the horse escaped with Art, whom Simeon and Gamal tried to chase but to no avail. Both he and Gamal stayed at the cave for security while Pierrette was taken by Safiya back to Cairo to aid her.

At Safiya and Gamal's house, they all reconvened with Amira, who was part of the Egyptian Assassin Council. Although Kazan was killed, Simeon and Pierrette were told to follow Hennighan and recover the Ankh. However, while he agreed, Pierrette received an urgent note to venture back to London to investigate Elizabeth Siddal's exhumation and also Ada's notes.

为巴黎而战

While spending eight months in Paris looking for Hennighan, Simeon conferred with Michel, who was head of the French Assassins, and learned of a Templar target Virgile Donat who was aiding Hennighan. Spending time outside Donat's glass factory, Simeon finally found Donat in front of him and stabbed him. However, while interrogating him, Simeon learned that Hennighan and the Ankh was going to aid their Engine of History. After ending Donat's life mercifully, he reported back to Moulin. However, matters turned worse when talks of war between France and Prussia were rising. As a response, Simeon was tasked to sever communication through the telegraph lines.

Along with workers Fabrice Sabourin and Jules Sabourin, Simeon worked to cut the cable lines until they were shot at. Fortunately, they cut the lines and escaped the gunfire. Hiding out in a hotel in Metz, he soon received a cease-and-desist letter by Konstanze von Visler to stop them from cutting her cables. Worse news occurred when they all heard of war being declared. Hiding during the war, Simeon taught the Sabourin brothers a few skills before they were found by their father. Trying his best, Simeon watched as they left to protect their hometown.

In the summer of 1870, Simeon later joined the Assassins' efforts to aid the Parisians while seeking for peace from Kaiser Wilhelm. One of his tasks is to safeguard a carriage service. One of the rides was to transport former Empress Eugénie de Montijo to safety after the fall of the Second French Empire. Instantly, he was visited by a bereft Pierrette, who informed him of Tillie's death. While consoling her, he told her of the countess' letter and how some Templars are fleeing to Tours to make a new base. While she promised to go to Tours before leaving, Simeon attended to the former empress' safe relocation.

Afterwards, Simeon kept on aiding the Parisians after the fall of the empire and even found Fabrice, who lost Jules and six of his cousins from a Prussian ambush. Aiding Moulin in rations and medical supplies for the citizens, he and the Assassins were tasked to overtake Le Bourget from the Prussians. However, they received a visit from French Templar Victoire L'Estocq, who offered a new government as a proposition. However, Michel and Simeon rejected her offer before she left in spite.

On 27 October, Simeon joined the Assassins and took out the Prussian soldier occupying Le Bourget while Parisians came to fortify the commune. While they all waited for the French government to send reinforcements, it took three days for the Prussians to retaliate and send the Parisians and Assassins retreating. While Le Bourget was burned down, Michel and Simeon intercepted a message between the Templars Victoire and Konstanze von Visler about the Ankh and planting a new French government after the war. Noting von Visler's location to be in Brussels, Simeon offered to go to Brussels.

与孔斯坦策合作

Traveling by hot air balloon, Simeon traveled in the air with engineer Lebrun. However, he noticed Lebrun tried to attack him and realized he was carrying the Ankh. After a short fight in the air, Simeon killed Lebrun by throwing him overboard but along with the Ankh. Realizing he was stuck in the basket, he jumped from it into a millspond below. Injured, he ventured to Tours and was later contacted by an anonymous source to wait at a local café. However, he noticed a scuffle above between a gunman and Pierrette. He later witnessed Pierrette fighting with Hennighan before she killed him. Thanking her, Simeon told her of his mission he must go alone while she went to communicate with Michel through the heliograph.

Traveling to Brussels, Simeon rented a room in the city and ventured around to take in the atmosphere. Nearly upon arrival, Simeon received an invitation to the Château Aarden, from where Konstanze was staying and operating. Breaking into her home, Simeon was heard and then instructed to go upstairs to her room. In her room, they saw each other after eight years. He confronted her about Ada's notebook, but she alleged that the book held no importance to their Engine of History and gave it to him. After Simeon threw it into the fire, he asked her what she wanted. Ultimately, she asked him about why his Brotherhood have impeded the Templars' work and wanted to understand them.

Arguing about how she sent Hennighan and Lebrun after him, Simeon compromised on a temporary truce between her and the Assassins, under the condition of no further Templar interference in France's government. When she agreed, Simeon later informed both Michel and Pierrette of the truce. For the next three years, Simeon and Konstanze discussed their principles and beliefs while divulging their own personal information about their lives and recent events. In the summer of 1873, he was visited by Gamal as he discussed his worries over his own usefulness to her while wondering about Konstanze's current allegiance.

One day, while Simeon waited for his weekly meeting with the countess, the château's host and butler Lambert began to garrote him. Within their scuffle, Simeon overpowered Lambert and killed him with his blade. When Konstanze found them, Simeon demanded to know why. After Konstanze explained how her Templars want him dead and the truce to be over, Simeon began to leave. Immediately, he was grabbed by the countess, who began to kiss him. After a passionate moment, he spent the night with her. Confused but happy, Simeon left and met with Gamal. He decided with Gamal to leave Brussels under a new target by the Templars.

While on a train from Brussels, the car began to evacuate over a bomb threat. Alone, he was met by Konstanze, who admitted of orchestrating the bomb herself. To his surprise, Simeon heard Konstanze, who explained that she wanted to learn more and was willing to leave the Templars. She offered her knowledge of the Templars and revealed her love to Simeon. In a minute, they both leaped off the train into the river below before it exploded. Surviving, he sent a letter to Pierrette about faking his death to escape the Templars' eyes.

瑞士生活

With Konstanze, Simeon found a house within the Swiss Alps and began their newfound life together. A month later in Zürich, they both met with the Assassin leader Henri, who welcomed Simeon and Konstanze into the Swiss Assassins' base. After Henri laid down their creed and laws to Konstanze, Simeon took upon his responsibility to train Konstanze as an Assassin while they all talked about the Assassins' tactics and ideology. For the next three years, Simeon lived peacefully with Konstanze. However, in September 1876, Simeon watched as Konstanze left for her first mission to kill Templar cartographer Maynard Poole. He wished her well before she left.

In November, Simeon was met by Henri at his home. While being told the mission was a success, Simeon was told that Konstanze met with King Leopold II of Belgium privately. The following night, Simeon received Konstanze, who brought along an uninvited guest Henry Morton Stanley, a famed explorer. Simeon confronted Konstanze alone about her trangression with the king of Belgium, but her answers made Simeon walk angrily to their room. In their room, he spotted Stanley looking at Konstanze's work and talked with him. During their brief discussion, Simeon saw him ready his gun and hits him with an iron before shooting him.

Bereft, Simeon held a semi-unconscious Stanley while Konstanze came and pulled out her gun on him. Hurt, he accused her of betraying the Assassins and threw Stanley's body onto her and escaped. Angry, he returned to save their dog Javert before leaving to tell the Swiss Assassins. Before long, the Swiss Assassins burned down Irene Egli's home and found a new safehouse. He later heard that Konstanze rejoined the Templars.

Life as an outcast

By 1881, Simeon returned back to Russia to aid the families of Dmitry Karakozov. He later was asked by a man to aid his cousin Nikolai Rysakov and to stop a possible dangerous plan. At the Assassin headquarters, he introduced his name but was shut out of any communications. Fortunately, he heard about the location from the whispers and investigated the area. There, he found a man with a mine and Tsar Alexander II's carriage coming forward towards some bystanders. Using a different name at the Assassins' base, Simeon found out Nikolai's location. However, he heard an explosion and saw Rysakov run past him away from the police. Unfortunately, he saw Nikolai captured and heard another explosion, which led to the death of the tsar.

阻止历史引擎

Six years later, Simeon met with Henri, who offered to track Konstanze as he heard her location to be Berlin for a conference, but his findings were unfounded. In 1889, Simeon was brandished as unreliable to most Assassins and he was sent to find low-level Templars back in Paris. With his identity known, he made no attempts to conceal it any longer. His task was to find and kill Templar gang leader Centime by Michel. After his investigation, he found Centime, who tried to bribe him for his life. However, Simeon slowly stabbed him and left him to die.

Living in Montmartre, Simeon received newly inducted Assassin Fabrice at his home. During their meeting, Simeon learned that Konstanze was in Paris due to her ironworks for the Eiffel Tower and the Gallery of Machines. Simeon understood that Konstanze was a target for elimination but also knew that she won't be near the event. Investigating, Simeon found her hotel room and inspected it. However, he is found by Fabrice, who followed her back to the hotel. Hearing someone leave outside the window, Simeon jumped down but only saw the person to be a young decoy. Meeting with Fabrice, Simeon came across a puzzle box.

Together, Simeon and Fabrice presented it to Michel and Mary, who deciphered the clue. They all found a note to Konstanze and how the Engine of History is at end as well as the end of Assassins. A picture of the Eiffel Tower was found behind the note. Worried, Simeon sent a letter to Pierrette to warn her of Konstanze and a danger in Paris. Simeon received both Pierrette and her ward Spider Wallin, who followed him to the Assassin meeting. Planning to stop the Templars, all agreed to blow up the Eiffel Tower.

Alone with Pierrette, Simeon explained that Konstanze must have copied Ada's notes and both agreed to having Konstanze killed once and for all. Before leaving, Simeon was given the handkerchief with Konstanze's initials on it. At night, Simeon laid down explosive charges at the legs of the tower until he saw Konstanze and her decoy climb the tower. He followed them and confronted the two. There, he was told by Konstanze that the girl decoy was their daughter Gisela. While Gisela moved upward, Simeon threw a knife into Konstanze's leg and followed the girl to the summit. Once Konstanze caught up with them, Simeon was overpowered and motionless due to Gisela using an Apple of Eden on him.

Fortunately, Simeon regained mobility due to Spider tackling Gisela down and pushing the Apple out of her hand. He was told that their Engine of History was a prediction method and how the Templars tried to frame Assassins as terrorists. Thus, they would be hunted down by multiple governments. With Konstanze right in front of him, he threw the handkerchief down in front of her. Fighting each other, Simeon held her against the iron and his blade against her. Hesistant, Simeon was then pushed by Gisela, who indirectly sliced Konstanze's neck. He later saw both of them escape with their packed gliders as they soared down from the tower. However, he watched as Konstanze fell down to her death due to her injury. With no time to lose, he and Spider sent a light signal to the Assassins below to stop the explosion.

At the last moment, the Assassins stopped their bomb and Simeon and Spider were safe. Disassembling their explosives, Simeon was told that Pierrette was injured earlier but was making a recovery for her shattered hip. In a carriage driven by Spider, Simeon heard the French people repeat their Morse message from earlier of "NO GODS NO MASTERS." Although there are no signs of Gisela or Konstanze's body, Simeon was driven away from the tower and still alive to fight the next day.

幕后故事
