Legend of Mir 2: Seeking the Truth in Marfa

In the Marfa continent, Brook and Bayin had an advantage because they leveled up quickly, entered maps that others could not enter, and did things that others could not do.

But in the Dragon Empire, level becomes a disadvantage.

Does Brook have other advantages? And can he use these advantages to achieve things that others cannot do?

Artifacts! Yes, Brook has 5 more artifacts: Resurrection Ring, Teleportation Ring, Invisibility Ring, Detection Necklace, and Skill Necklace.

Brook had never seen any artifact-related items at the auction house. Even in the Dragon Empire, artifacts were extremely rare, not something that ordinary people could possess.

Master Tianhong said that the reason why artifacts are artifacts is that in addition to their inherent functions, they can also develop new special abilities.

Brooke stood up and walked further south to the manor. After a few minutes, he came to a large tree, a place rarely visited by people and disturbed by no one. Brooke sat cross-legged behind the tree, took the detection necklace from his backpack and put it on.

If you can detect the leader's exact location and find him quickly, it will be a great advantage.

@serching Ancient Dragon

The detection necklace showed no response. Could it be because the distance was too far?

@serchingLu Renfeng

Received a reply from the detection necklace: "Lu Renfeng is now in the Shenlong Empire:".

If you're looking for someone, you can find them right away. Apparently, the distance is sufficient.

Brook thought about it and checked the location of Xiao Shuai, Xiao Yin and the others again, but the detection necklace didn't respond. This time, they were truly out of range. However, they could still detect the Shenlong Empire and the Companion Continent.

Could it be that the Ancient Dragon hasn't respawned yet after being killed? I need to find a confirmed respawning boss and try again. There's no rush, just take your time.

Brook then took out his invisibility ring and put it on. Taoists are naturally invisible, so wearing an invisibility ring might seem useless, but that's far from the case. First, the invisibility ring allows for mobile invisibility, and second, it enhances the invisibility effect. Just like the defensive ring, the defensive ring itself has healing properties. If a Taoist wears it, it can boost their healing properties from level 3 to level 4.

Brooke cast the invisibility spell and was surprised to find his entire body was now half-displayed, almost transparent. The invisibility effect had been significantly enhanced. Previously, the invisibility spell could only deceive less intelligent monsters; now, if he hid well, perhaps in the bushes, he could even evade a cultivator.

The next resurrection ring is not easy to test, as it can only be triggered by death, so it can only be put aside for now; Brook often uses the teleportation ring, but he can't think of any other uses for it for the time being; as for the last skill necklace, Brook is even more confused, and doesn't know what other uses it has besides enhancing skill proficiency.

Brook stood up and walked towards the central square of the manor in the morning light. A new day had begun, and he would first go to the Dragon Empire.

Brook arrived at the quest hall and started the Brave Heaven quest. This time, he was on levels 4, 5, and 6. The monsters were still pretty easy: a centipede with 1500 HP, a claw worm with 1816 HP, and a red boar with 1906 HP. He killed them all in 30 seconds, completing all three quests and obtaining 60 book pages.

I went to get the experience task again. When I go to the fantasy realm to level up later, I will use up the fantasy realm time and complete the experience task at the same time.

Later, he went to the auction house and discovered that his Fire Dragon Armor and Backfire Wristguards hadn't sold yet. This was odd; his prices were relatively low, so they shouldn't be unsaleable. Brooke thought about it and suddenly understood. Most of the monks in the Dragon Empire rested at night and probably only came out during the day, so things were hard to sell at night.

Brook also put up the Thunder Crystal. There weren't many Thunder Crystals left at the auction house, with the lowest being 120, and others offering 150 or 180. Brook knew it was a good item, and since he wasn't in a rush to sell it, he simply put a high price of 200 Yuanbao on it, hanging it up high, waiting for someone to find it.

Finally, Brook arrived at the Chamber of Commerce. He first sold all the Red Moon Thunders in his backpack for Dragon Coins. He didn't sell the remaining War God equipment. Xiao Sa had said that there was a chance of obtaining Spirit Gathering Pearls when smelting War God equipment, though the probability was very low. So he planned to save the War God equipment and try smelting it again when he had more.

Brooke found the official in charge of taxation at the Chamber of Commerce and paid today's 8 yuan tax, so as not to forget it by the evening.

Now that I have used up all the gold ingots, I am left with nothing and have to start making money again.

Brook returned to the Dragon Square and teleported to Maya City on the second-level continent.

"Hello, Messenger, how much time do I have left in this illusion?" Brook asked.

“总共还有3小时38分钟。”幻境使者说道。其中2小时是今天的，另外1小时38分钟是昨天剩余的。

"How to buy fantasy time?" Brook asked again.

"There are two ways to purchase. You can spend 2 Shenlong coins to purchase 2000 hours, which can only be purchased once a day. Alternatively, you can spend 2 Yuanbao to purchase 2 hours, which can only be purchased once a day."

"Okay, I'll buy two hours using Dragon Coins." Brooke immediately bought the time. He was out of gold and couldn't afford to buy more for the time being, but he still had Dragon Coins. It was a pity that he didn't buy the time yesterday, wasting two hours.

Brook entered the first level of the illusion.

The experience gained from the monsters on the first and second floors is reduced, making them unsuitable for leveling up. However, the first few rounds of the experience quest require you to kill monsters here, and you must kill a specified number of them.

Afterwards, he was teleported to the third floor. Experience points no longer decayed here, but Brook chose not to level up here. This was because the terrain was a larger version of the WoMa Cult's Hall map, filled with WoMa monsters. A 3000 HP WoMa Cult spawned in the center of the hall. Brook had promised the Demon Sealing City Lord that he wouldn't kill WoMa monsters unless necessary.

On the 4th floor, there was an enlarged version of the Death Coffin map, full of centipedes, pincers, and other monsters, which Brook didn't like very much. Then he went to the 5th and 6th floors, and quickly completed the number of kills required for the experience quest.

There are a lot of monsters in the illusion, but they are not densely packed. Fortunately, the monsters spawn very quickly and will refresh again one minute after being killed, so it is very suitable for leveling.

Brook returned to the 5th floor, because this is the 7th floor map of the Stone Tomb, where monsters such as wedge moths and wild boars are easy to kill, which is very suitable for Brook.

Although the 6th floor Bone Demon Cave will spawn the leader Huangquan Cult Master, and there is a chance that a skill book will be dropped, there will be people competing for it, especially during the day when there are many monks. Brook doesn't want to get involved and now just wants to focus on leveling up.

New monks kept appearing around, mostly to complete experience quests. There were many monsters and the map was large, so generally no one would bother them. Brook went to the depths of the map, where there were even fewer people, so he trained there with peace of mind.

After practicing for a while, a Stone Tomb Corpse King suddenly emerged from the nearby Stone Tomb corridor. Brook had forgotten that each level of the illusion also had a leader.

Brook didn't rush to kill, but put on a detection necklace.

@serchingStone Tomb Corpse King

The detection necklace showed no response.

Oh my god! The Stone Tomb Corpse King is right before our eyes, and you can't even detect it? Where's your artifact? You're useless.

This detection necklace seems to only be able to detect humans, but not monsters. It seems that monsters don't exist in its dictionary. What should I do?

Brook couldn't think of a solution. Helplessly, he could only kill the Stone Tomb King, which had 5000 HP. He dropped a Judgment and a Holy War Bracelet, both worthless items.

Brook dug into the corpse as usual. Suddenly, something radiating a dazzling light fell to the ground. The ribs of the Stone Tomb Corpse King! He had unearthed another soul material!

Brook already had this "Stone Tomb Corpse King Rib" in his backpack, but he hadn't had time to inject soul into it at the Soul Hall. Now another one has appeared.

If I had known earlier, I would have sold the Stone Tomb Corpse King ribs in my backpack to Ximen Wuque. 50 Yuanbao! What a shame, such a shame to have missed out on it.

It looks like I'll have to put it up at the auction house. I'll have to put a high price on it. 10 Yuanbao? No way, I'll have to put it up at least 30 Yuanbao. It's up to you if you want to buy it or not.

Brook thought to himself, then took off the detection necklace and prepared to put it into his backpack together with the Stone Tomb Zombie King's ribs.

Suddenly, the Stone Tomb Corpse King's ribs glowed brightly! Uncontrollably, they sank directly into the detection necklace, just like being absorbed by the demon beast statues in the Soul Hall, and disappeared.

The detection necklace absorbed the Stone Tomb Corpse King's ribs?!

Brooke was shocked!

You're just a detection necklace, why would you eat it! That's a full 30 yuan treasure!

Brooke was sad, but also felt like something was wrong.

Huh? Could it be...

Brook immediately put the detection necklace back on.

@serchingStone Tomb Corpse King

"The Stone Tomb Corpse King is now located in the Novice Dungeon: 7826."

Brook's heart was shocked!

So that's it! The way to let the detection necklace identify monsters is to let it absorb the monster's soul material!

Brook's advantage is here!
