After fighting off enemy guards throughout the whole villa, I tracked down the hiding boss Ludovico without killing him. After beating Ludovico into submission, Enzo loaded him into Carlo's waiting car. Leaving the chaotic shootout behind, Carlo drove us toward the old castello where our crew waited.
The main objective was clear - I had to bring Ludovico back alive. Standing my ground, I waited as an incoming squad rushed my position, dropping three hitmen in quick succession as they rounded the corner.
Reinforcements quickly flooded the area to keep up the pressure. Moving through the crossfire, an enemy gunman ambushed me from a doorway and nearly took me out, but I returned fire at the last second to drop him.
Out of options, I applied my final bandage to patch up the damage.
The remaining cars continued circling the block to pin me down, attempting to buy time for their leader to escape. Operating without any healing supplies left, I proceeded carefully through the alleyways while keeping an eye out for Ludovico.
I expected him to jump into a vehicle and speed away, but he elected to stay hidden in the stable instead.
I cornered in the stable while he desperately screamed for help, claiming I was going to kill him.
Closing the distance, I traded my gun for my bare fists and landed a series of heavy punches until he stopped resisting. Once he was subdued, I hoisted his body over my shoulder and carried him toward the getaway vehicle waiting outside the villa.
Carlo was idling near the curb, shouting for me to toss Ludovico straight into the trunk. I secured the target in the back, jumped into the front passenger seat, and gave Carlo the signal to drive.
As we sped away from the shooting scene, Carlo set our course for the old castello, where the rest of our crew was gathered to receive the captive.
After reaching the spot, we found another car at the ruin site and there was one of us waiting for us there. I could guess something bad was going to happen to Ludovico next.
To be continued.
