Legend of Mir 2: Seeking the Truth in Marfa

Return to the Dragon Empire.

This trip to Marfa was not tiring. The three of them just took a short rest before getting up and going to the teleportation platform to start the last teleportation.

When we landed on Phoenix Terrace, there was no one around.

Brook searches for Xiaobai as usual.

@serching Mutated Skeleton

The detection necklace responded: "The mutant skeleton is now located in the poisonous worm hole 1042:605"

Brooke couldn't help but shudder.

"What's wrong?" Wenren Muxue asked.

Brook suppressed the excitement in his heart and said slowly: "You guys, wait for me."

@move poisonous worm hole 1042 605

Brook appeared in the poisonous insect cave in a flash.

As soon as he landed, a gust of wind hit his body, and the protective shield was automatically triggered, blocking the damage.

Taoist's hurricane breaks!

In front of him stood a monk wearing a yellow hat and a legendary suit.

5th level casual cultivator, Gu Zhizi.

Brooke took a few steps back. Suddenly, he bumped into something from behind. Turning around, he saw Xiaobai!

"Get out of the way! Don't let me hurt you by mistake." Gu Zhizi said, placing the legendary Taoist fan in his hand in front of his chest, ready to swing it out.

"Senior, stop! This mutant skeleton cannot be killed!" Brook said anxiously.

"Get out of the way quickly, be careful it might attack you! This is not an ordinary mutated skeleton, but a magical beast with intelligence. I don't know why it appeared on this continent of Mafa. If you don't kill it, when it grows up, there will be endless troubles!" Gu Zhizi said sternly.

"This mutant skeleton is mine!"

"Huh? I've been chasing this monster for over an hour, how did it become yours? Humph! I know you're from the Wenren family, but if you want to steal my Gu Zhizi's monster, don't blame me for being rude!"

When Gu Zhizi saw Xiaobai, he was surprised to see it fighting monsters in the 4th floor Trial Cave! He had seen intelligent, superior monsters actively attacking smaller monsters on the battlefield. As Gu Zhizi approached, wanting to confirm further, and preparing to use telepathy to investigate, Xiaobai suddenly vanished and fled!

Gu Zhizi finally concluded that this was a magical beast with intelligence. Although it did not seem to be very powerful, it was indeed a magical beast.

Warcraft can drop good equipment. Of course, Gu Zhizi was unwilling to let it go, so he searched everywhere and hunted everywhere.

This mutated skeleton monster was incredibly slippery, using its teleportation ability to flee if caught. Gu Zhizi searched for it everywhere, and whenever he found one, he chased it, chasing it from the 4th level of the Trial Cave to the 3rd level of the Poisonous Insect Cave, and then from the 3rd level of the Poisonous Insect Cave to the 2nd level of the Snake King Valley. Later, for some reason, the mutated skeleton stopped teleporting and simply ran away, running almost as fast as a cultivator. It was only possible to hit it with a group attack. Furthermore, the monster was familiar with the terrain and could regenerate health by drinking potions, making it difficult to kill even without teleporting.

Gu Zhizi had been to the Warcraft battlefield several times and had seen many Warcraft, but he had never seen one so clever and so fast. This piqued his curiosity, and he gave chase for over an hour. The Warcraft's health regeneration began to slow, and it was obvious that its potion was almost exhausted. The Warcraft became anxious and, in a panic, ran into a dead end. Gu Zhizi was overjoyed, seeing victory in sight, and just then he met Brook.

Maybe Brook had encountered the mutant skeleton once or twice when it teleported, but how could he say that the mutant skeleton was his?

Brook had heard of this man. A guest of the Wenren family, he had helped them secure a divine artifact in the Novice Underground Palace Trial and was even rewarded with a Lucky Veil. But Gu Zhizi was a fifth-rank cultivator. If Brook dared to openly steal a monster, he would need a lesson, a lesson in respect for his elders and the principles of life.

Brook certainly wouldn't try to explain that this was Xiaobai, not a monster, but a baby he had nurtured. His current identity was a monk from the Dragon Empire, not a Marfa monk, so there was no way to explain it.

"Senior, I mean, I'm willing to pay ingots for it. Please give it to me!"

"Give it to you? Haha~ How many gold ingots do you want to offer?" Gu Zhizi said with a smile.

"1000 Yuanbao!"

"Do you think I, Gu Zhizi, have never seen money?"

"Then how much do you want?"

"At least 1!" said Gu Zhizi.

"Okay, then it's 1!" Brook said readily.

Gu Zhizi was stunned. He said 1 was just a casual remark to scare Brook away. Unexpectedly, the other party agreed.

Although this mutant skeleton monster may drop some good stuff, it is not worth 1 gold coins.

"You really have 1 gold coins? Fine. Give me the money and I'll give it to you."

"Senior, I don't have that much money on me right now. I will give it to you immediately after returning to the Dragon Empire," said Brook.

"Haha~ Are you trying to get something for nothing? You're just a guest official, and you want 1 gold coins just for free? Why should I believe you?"

"Because my cousin is the 6th-turn cultivator Wenren Zhong, because I can participate in the Wenren family's action, and because I have made great contributions to the Wenren family. Although my surname is not Wenren, my treatment is the same as that of the direct descendants. To be honest with you, senior, in fact, I can also be considered a child of a noble family!" Brook said proudly.

Seeing that Brook was so confident and didn't seem to be faking it, Gu Zhizi couldn't help but believe it.

"Okay, I'll trust you for once. If you cheat, I won't let you go."

"Don't worry, senior. I'll give you 1 gold coins as soon as we get back to the Dragon Empire." Brook was delighted, having finally convinced the other party. He had already decided that if Gu Zhizi still didn't believe him, he would have to ask Wenren Muxue to come forward and guarantee it.

The two sides finally reached an agreement.

"Come on." Gu Zhizi stepped back. He wanted to see what this mutant skeleton monster could reveal.

Brook turned around, took out a summoning talisman from his backpack, and waved his hand. Suddenly, a different space appeared from inside.

"Get in!"

The mutated skeleton monster actually walked in obediently!

Brook put the amulet away, put it back into his backpack, and smiled with satisfaction.

"Summoning talisman? You can make a summoning talisman? You treated the monster as a baby and sealed it in the summoning talisman?" Gu Zhizi asked in surprise.

"Yes. I spent a lot of money to learn this from a summoning talisman merchant in the 5th rank continent."

"What the summoning talisman merchant sealed was just an ordinary mutated skeleton from the Warcraft battlefield. You are a Warcraft!"

"Really? The summoning talisman merchant only told me to use the monsters from the Warcraft battlefield, and I thought it was Warcraft. Well, it doesn't matter, as long as I can make it successfully. This is my first time making a mutant skeleton summoning talisman. Haha, I succeeded in one try!" Brook laughed happily.

Gu Zhizi was speechless. This was a monster he'd bought for 1 Yuanbao, yet he'd sealed it like a baby. Remember, the Mutated Skeleton Summoning Talisman was only worth 2 Yuanbao.

1 gold coins were wasted like this. These children from wealthy families are so willful.

"Senior, my teammates are still waiting for me. I'm going to meet them!" Brook said.

"Remember to prepare 1 gold coins. If you forget, I will target the Wenren family."

"I won't forget. Goodbye, senior." Brook left in a hurry. He wanted to find a deserted place to let Xiaobai out and talk.

Suddenly, the compass began to beep.

Not only Brook's, but also Gu Zhizi's compass was ringing.

When I opened it, I saw it was a group message from the Empire:

"Urgent: Ximen family, 7th rank monk Ximen Kongmie, has disobeyed the laws of the Dragon Empire and the rules of the Marfa Continent, and is openly rebelling! We now require all imperial monks in Area 10 to come to the King's Forest on the first floor of the Source of All Evil, coordinates 982, 2024, to assist us in the battle and surround and kill Ximen Kongmie! --- Luo Xuan, 6th Guard of the Dragon Empire"
