Legend of Mir 2: Seeking the Truth in Marfa

The Fire Dragon Leader, armed with claws and thorns, moved swiftly, but its intelligence was limited, and obstacles within the passage would occasionally hinder its progress, slowing it down. Julien could only run back to guide the monster again, anxious and occasionally glancing back at the battlefield behind him with fear in his eyes.

"Yes! I understand! Just hold on a little longer, I'll be able to get out of the passage soon." Taoist Julien said to the team while leading the Fire Dragon Leader into the corner. A little further ahead was a three-way intersection.

Brooke retreated quickly. There were many corners here, so he wouldn't be discovered by Julien. Ahead was a three-way intersection, and Brooke planned to hide in the southern passage.

Suddenly, a figure ran out from the corner of the wall, turned right quickly, and bumped into Brook.

"Ouch!" The monk was strong, so while the collision wouldn't hurt, it still startled both of them. The person who came was a woman. When she saw Brooke clearly, she exclaimed, "It's you?!"

"Hush!" Brooke quickly signaled to speak softly. Julien, who was behind them, was about to turn the corner and see them. Without any time to think, he took the arm of the person in front of him and turned into the south passage.

When Brooke and the other man hid in a secluded place, Julien just happened to enter the fork in the road.

The southern part of the fork in the road was also a long passage, unsuitable for attracting monsters; to the north, however, was an open area, with another branching route not far away. Without hesitation, Julien led the Fire Dragon Commander north.

"Come on, follow him!" said the woman as she was about to chase after him.

"Don't go! There's someone behind him." Brooke stopped him quickly.

The woman paused, leaned against the wall again, and finally stopped chasing after him.

"It's all your fault. Why did you run south? We can't catch you now." The woman complained.

Brook looked at the woman in front of him. She was wearing the level 50 female clothing Emperor Demon Armor, holding the mage weapon Zhentian, and a full set of holy magic jewelry. It was a God of War series of equipment. She was a female mage who had not been reincarnated.

Her name is Wenren Muyue.

"Do you know me?" Brooke asked doubtfully.

"Don't you remember me? I just saw you yesterday!" Wenren Muyue said.

Yesterday? Brooke had no recollection of it. He had indeed never seen this female mage before.

"Do you know Wenren Muyun from Yong'an South Gate? Was he the one who told you my name?" Brooke asked.

Wenren Muyue rolled her eyes at Brooke. Then she raised her arm and flexed her muscles.

"Ah! It's you!" Brooke was shocked. It was actually the boy on the gatehouse of Yong'an South Gate. At that time, the boy was on the gatehouse, and most of his body was blocked, so I couldn't see his name. But he was clearly a boy at that time, how did he become a woman?

A closer look at their faces revealed they were indeed the same person. Oh my god, a woman disguised as a man. Brooke understood.

"You finally remembered." Wenren Muyue seemed to recall Brook's appearance in his shorts and couldn't help but chuckle. Then he looked at Brook and said, "Wow, you're already wearing the True Soul suit! It's only been a day since I last saw you, and you've already leveled up 3 times to 49. That's pretty impressive!"

"Average. What's your level?"

"I'm average too, level 65."

Brook took a breath of shock, he was actually level 65!

"Impressive! But why haven't you reincarnated yet at level 65?" Brook thought. He probably was still saving money for reincarnation materials, just like Lu Renfeng and the others. It seemed like there were many poor people in the Dragon Empire, too.

"I'm going to participate in the underground palace trial tomorrow. Well, let's not talk about this for now. Julien ran far away. What should I do now?" Wenren Muyue asked.

"It's okay. I'm the best at tracking. I'll definitely find him later." Brooke said.

"Really?"

"Don't underestimate the cultivators of Marfa Continent. Although our ranks are not high, we have our own strengths to have stood out from Marfa Continent and entered the Dragon Empire. Don't worry, I will definitely find the Fire Dragon Commander."

As the two were talking, the sounds of fierce fighting emanated from the fork in the road. Then, a group of monks rushed out, constantly replenishing their health and drinking medicine, looking very embarrassed. They fought and retreated, heading north. Brooke noticed that many of the people in the group had names starting with "Ximen", presumably from the Ximen family. The leader was a Taoist priest wearing a golden bull robe.

Immediately afterwards, another group emerged from the inner ranks. Though smaller in number, they were significantly stronger, constantly dominating the opposing team. The leader was a female mage in silver robes. With a wave of her staff, a rain of fire rained down from the sky, sending the enemy wailing and fleeing in all directions. Two of the enemy soldiers, already low on health, were instantly reduced to a sliver of health. With a whoosh, they quickly used their random escape ability, narrowly avoiding death.

Seeing the number of people in the team getting smaller and smaller, the Taoist priest Jinniu said fiercely:

"Wenren Muxue! A mere rank 2 Fire Dragon Commander, and you, a rank 4 cultivator, are actually trying to snatch him away! Don't go too far!"

"I have a request." Wenren Muxue said calmly, then changed the subject and said righteously, "The Empire has no rules that prohibit high-level cultivators from competing for low-level monsters; the Empire only advocates that those who are capable take the throne. Ximen Shangli, if you don't give in, don't blame me for being ruthless."

"Don't think that your family is the only one that has a 4th-level cultivator. We have some too!" said the Taurus Taoist Ximen Shangli angrily.

"Then let them come. I'll give you the opportunity to use the summons!" Wenren Muxue was still indifferent.

Ximen Shangli secretly resented her. Wenren Muxue was incredibly powerful. Although only at the 4th level, she was a leader among them, rumored to be just a hair's breadth away from the 4th level. The team he led now was no match for her.

Ximen Shangli did have a Family Calling Order in his backpack, but it took 10 seconds to activate and could not be interrupted. More importantly, the Family Calling Order was very valuable. If it was just to compete for a mere Fire Dragon Commander, it was not worth it, so he was reluctant to use it.

It seems that we can only outsmart them. Although the enemy is powerful, they are outnumbered after all, so we have a chance.

"Hmph! Even without the call to arms, we'll still get it! Let's retreat!" Ximen Shangli said, leading the team to continue fighting while retreating.

Wenren Muxue's team continued to move forward, gradually moving farther and farther away.

"Are you with them?" Brooke asked.

"Yes. The one who just spoke was my sister. What do you think? She is awesome, right?" Wenren Muyue said proudly.

"Well, that's great. Why don't you go up and help?" Brooke asked.

"Those people are at the second or even third level. Do you want me to go up and die?" Wenren Muyue said.

"Then what are you here for? Oh~ you are here to watch a show!" Brooke suddenly realized.

"I... of course I wasn't just watching the show. I also had a mission. I promised to help my sister scout the enemy situation. Now, because of meeting you, I lost the person. So you have an unshirkable responsibility!" Wenren Muyue said angrily.

"Don't panic. Let me check the map first and analyze where Julien will take the Fire Dragon Commander." While observing the map, Brook secretly put on the detection necklace when he turned around, and immediately found the location of the Fire Dragon Commander.

"Okay, now my sister is asking me which way to go at the intersection ahead. Teach me how to answer." Wenren Muyue said angrily.

"Are you talking about this intersection? Let me calculate, oh, it should go right!" Brooke said.

"Are you sure? My sister said the enemy's main force is heading this way on the left."

"They're clearly playing a trick, making a feint to the east and attacking in the west, secretly moving to Chencang. They're deliberately going left to trick your sister. So we have to go right."

"...It seems to make some sense. Okay, I'll believe you for now." Wenren Muyue informed everyone in the team to go right.

Wenren Muxue thought that Wenren Muyue had already caught up with Julien closely, so she turned right without any suspicion.
