If you want to complete this level as "ghost", you will have to use clever tactics and have great reflexes. In this level you will find many secrets - twelve Animus shards, three synchronization points and four treasure chests. There is an optional task as well - you must eliminate four enemies. You will find them with Eagle Vision - they will be marked with yellow color.

Reaching first Watchtower

In order to get through first guards, jump between hideouts

You start in the synchronization point. Jump to the haystack, take the Helix lying on the left. You can bypass two first enemies by jumping between hideouts - you can use Helix to make it easier. Remember that the enemy with yellow circle will see you if you move near him (unless you use Helix).

Further on the right you will find first treasure chest and Mongolian Scout from the optional task. You can easily eliminate him without causing alarm. Wait until he ends talking with the guard, jump down and perform a quick kill. Hide the body in the chest. Hang on the edge, wait for the guard to complete his observation and loot the treasure chest. Hang again and in that position to left. Get to the neighbor wall through a collapsed beam.

Use noise dart or firecrackers on first guard and jump from the post to the tower. You will receive advice to distract two next enemies with a noise dart (yellow color). Do it, aim more or less behind the shooter above. Quickly jump to the boards of the roof. Quickly get to inside to avoid being detected. Wait for the guard below to walk and move to the beam in the middle of the wall of tower.

Wait for crossbowman on the right side to walk right. Climb up, use rope dart on ceiling, collect Helix and jump on the roof. Get to the roof on the right - there you will find Animus shard. Wait for crossbowmen below to walk and jump right.

Reach the top of observation tower. To do it, get on the wall, distract the shooter and other guard with a noise dart. Walk on the flooring and use rope dart to reach the ceiling. After that, walk to the outside. When enemies below return to their duties, walk down to the beams and walk right, on the altitude of Helix above you.

On tower's top you will find shard and ammunition

Go higher and stun enemy on the left with firecrackers (above you will find replenishment of them). Jump on the wall and walk through the window to room above. You won't do it fast enough without gadgets - enemy is turning to the left for too short. In the room on the observation tower you will find Animus shard on the left and ammunition in the middle - previously mentioned replenishment of firecrackers). Leave through the window on the right and jump down to complete another synchronization point.

Go to another tower. Hide behind pillars in the corridor. Now you must act quickly and firmly. Sneak between pillars to two enemies, use firecrackers on the left one, quickly walk out from the pillar and hang on the ceiling. If you managed to do it quickly enough, immediately jump behind the enemy and run to the wall. You can wait at the ceiling for a good moment as well. Walk on the floor.

Hide in the green hiding place and observe the movement of guards. Third Animus shard can be found between talkers. You can collect it by remaining in the hideout, using rope dart on the ceiling for a moment and then hiding behind pillars.

When enemies walk away, jump behind the pillar, wait for the guard on the left to look at the middle and quickly move between pillars to the green hideout on the left. You can use Helix ability to make it easier.

Return to the ceiling after you collect the shard

Now, when guards will be talking in the middle, observe the crossbowman above. When he won't be looking, jump on the post, then to the left wall and through the small corridor get to the horizontal corridor. At the bottom you will find fourth Animus shard. Climb on the top and go right. Jump from the tower and walk down the post.

Closing first gate

Enter next building. Jump on the wall on the right. Jump on the ceiling when enemy won't be looking there. Use noise dart or firecracker on the crossbowman. Jump down and run to the left side of the room. Walk out through the window. Go to the window on the right when the soldier on the lower level won't be looking. Walk through the window when no one is looking and hide in the hideout. Jump between hideouts when no guard is looking (you can use Helix).

Last enemy on the bridge can be easily avoided. Walk to the edge of the bridge, get down on the beams, move to the other edge of the bridge and climb back up. Don't forget to crouch, otherwise you will make some noise. Use the reel - it will lure enemies. Quickly hide behind the open window on the right and wait for enemies to walk away. In the meantime, collect the Animus shard that can be found there.

Reaching second Watchtower

When it is safe outside, walk up and turn left. You will find additional ammunition in the small room. Jump below and hide behind chests. Jump through the barricade when the far away guard won't be looking. Hide in the niche and walk down to get Helix boost. Jump on the boards on the wall. Wait for shooter to look someplace else and jump to other boards. When he walks away, climb up and hide behind a pillar.

You will be safe here for a while. When enemy above won't be looking down, you will have two opportunities to sneak to the niche under the spearmen (when he turns his head away). You can use Helix here.

If you want to avoid being detected by enemy above, you must be fast

Move on the wall, jump down and use scaffolding to reach the neighbor tower. Jump on the base of the tower when shooter above won't be looking. If you're not fast enough, you can use interactive edges to move left, behind the wall, where the guard won't see you. Use rope dart on the ceiling and walk on the wall on the left - no guard is looking there. When the second shooter patrolling the territory walks away, jump on the floor. Go through the desks up and hang on the window.

Scout in the tower, you can kill him from the window and quickly hide the body - such assassination is fast

You're near second Mongolian Scout. Jump to the second window. When enemies stop talking, jump to the room, perform a silent assassination of the scout and hide his body in the chest. After that, immediately jump out of the room. You have probably seen the treasure chest in the right corner of the room. When enemy is looking through the window, jump to the room through the second window and loot the chest.

You must get through the bridge from the tower to second building. To remain unspotted, return to the ground floor and attach yourself to the ceiling. Move to the bridge's beams where you will find sixth Animus shard. Be careful while trying to take it - the guard below is regularly looking precisely at it.

Hide in the right edge under the bridge. When the road is clear, use the beams to go right. Lower yourself below - you should automatically hold the beams. When guards will be occupied by talking and the one on the left won't be looking, climb up and hide in the hideout.

Walk to the left side of the hideout, whistle and lure the Scout. After that, quickly move to his right side. The left guard will come as well. When they will be walking away, kill the scout from your hideout.

The last synchronization point can be found on the top of this tower. To reach it, walk out of hiding place, attach to the ceiling and get to the outside boards. When no one is looking jump on the floor and use the boards on the wall. Enter the room through the window (it's safe inside), jump from the beam on the left which is the third synchronization point.

Finding a passage inside Watchtower and closing gates

Door is closed, you must go through the attic

Leave the haystack, collect the ammunition below and enter the second watchtower. Attach yourself to the ceiling, use the ladder and ride down the wooden post. Jump down to the boards on the wall on the left and get close to the window. By jumping from a post to a post you can reach seventh Animus shard. Return to the wall and, when the guard goes other way, climb on the floor and hide behind the barricade.

Helix ability allows you to bypass enemies without using gadgets

Follow the guard and hide in the hideout. You won't be able to safely jump to next hideout when enemy will bypass you. Instead, you must use firecrackers on him or use Helix ability. From the second hideout, jump through the window and walk to the bottom, under the lower window.

Walk on the beams under the bridge. When guards are talking, you can safely go up

When you move on the wall you should easily see a reel hidden behind a bamboo curtain. Use it and quickly jump through the window. Walk under the bridge (use the beams). When you reach the right side, wait for two guards to start talking and third one look left. Jump up, quickly run through the building and jump out of window.

You will easily avoid crossbowmen by jumping between hideouts

Jump on the upper floor. Use pillars and niches (or Helix) to get left and avoid being detected by crossbowmen. Use ladder and the second reel. It will lower the extenders, you can jump on them and leave the building.

Reaching last Watchtower

After leaving the watchtower climb on the wall ahead and get behind the guard. Don't stay behind him for too long or he will turn around. Quickly use rope dart on the ceiling and hang on the edge. When the crossbowman on the right won't be looking climb up and hang on another ceiling.

You can bypass the guard looking down without getting his attention

Now observe the guard with a bill - when he will go right, quickly climb up, bypass the shooter and slightly further hang below. Wait for the enemy with a bill to walk through. Climb again and collect eighth animus Shard. Now you can wait once more and quickly collect third treasure chest. After that, run to the edge and jump down.

Go forth, climb on the construction and hang on the beams at the ceiling. Climb up. In the building you will find last (fourth) treasure chest. Walk down, jump to the red post and keep going to the right.

Walk down the scaffolding to remain undetected

A crossbowman is protecting another red post. If you time your actions well, you won't need to use gadgets to jump on the post and hang on the beams of the construction under the crossbowman. Walk through below to the wall. When no one will be looking, climb up, bypass the wall and again go under the floor. You will find ninth Animus shard here. Get through another wall in similar way and get to the edge. From there, thanks to the post you can climb up and through the collapsed beam straight to the last Watchtower.

First you must jump right between hideouts

It's the last part of the sequence. You must use two reels. Start with the one on the right side of the building. Enter the window and walk crouching to the left where you will take tenth Animus shard. Return and hide behind the pillar. When guard walks through, jump to the hideout, behind the pillar, to the hideout and through the window.

You can throw the ceiling on the scout by cutting the rope

Don't walk on the next floor, instead climb to the one above. There through a small corridor you can reach the highest level and eleventh Animus shard.

Below you is the last target of the optional task - Mongolian Scout. To eliminate him quietly you can throw a knife at the rope holding the ceiling. It will fall and kill him. Quickly pick up the body and hide it behind the bamboo curtain. Now you can use the reel and jump through the window by hanging on the left wall.

If you think you won't be fast enough - hide behind a bamboo curtain

When guards below disband, jump on the floor and follow the left guard - you don't need to hide. Quickly jump on the boards on the wall in the middle of the room and hang on the edge. Now the hardest part of the mission awaits you.

When shooter on the left isn't looking, hide behind a barricade. When you see the enemy above reach the left edge and turns right, throw a noise dart as far behind the shooter as possible. VERY QUICKLY walk up the boards and, instead of hiding behind a pillar, climb through the further boards even higher. Wait there for the enemy to pass, jump down and use the reel on the right.

Use the reel and run up to the open window

Now you can calmly walk behind the guard and climb up where a window to the attic has opened. Jump on the extenders in the middle, collect the last Animus shard between them. Jump further, leave the building and walk to the character at the end. This will end the sequence.
