Using tracking instincts, I silently choked out mine guards and used a sharpened knife for a brutal takedown. After carefully clearing the remaining perimeter guards to reach my horse, an abrupt cinematic cutscene triggered where Merlo intercepted and forcefully captured Enzo at the gate.
I had to take down a mine guard who was looking for me at the ground floor of the farmstead. And I had to avoid detection while I got this option to detect enemies using instinct.
After getting close to that guard who was trying to open up a door, I went for him silently, and I grabbed him while he was unaware. And I choked him to death until he completely stopped moving.
I found a whetstone from the body that I could use to sharpen my knife. And then I used my knife to open that door that the guard was trying to open up, sliding the thin blade into the lock until it clicked open.
That door led me out of that farmhouse, and now I had to leave the barn, getting to my horse. But there were more guards on my way, so I had to stay low to map out their patrol patterns.
Fortunately, this guard was also faced to the other side, so I could take him down easily by choking him to death. And then I used the whetstone to sharpen my knife for future use.
I found another guard on my way, and as I sharpened my knife already, I could try faster takedowns using my knife. And that guard faced a brutal finishing as I caught him off-guard from the shadows with a swift, lethal strike.
Right when I was about to leave that place and move ahead, I noticed there came two more guards who were going to find me if I had jumped out there. So I just waited for them to get separated.
I found them separated as they kept looking for me around, or they were just guarding the perimeter, so I wouldn't be able to leave this barn. And I took them both down one by one, by choking them to death without wasting any whetstone for faster takedowns.
Then I reached another gate where a cinematic moment started, and it looked like Enzo found his horse was being guarded by another mine guard.
Right when Enzo was about to get out of that shade and maybe get to his horse, there came Merlo, who kicked Enzo out of the door. And yeah, after trying my best to avoid detection, Enzo was caught.
To be continued.
