Legend of Mir 2: Seeking the Truth in Marfa

The 11-man team rushed to the right.

The magical interference in the Warcraft battlefield was too strong, making it impossible to set up a stable teleportation array. Moreover, the front-line positions were constantly changing hands, so even if a teleportation array could be set up, it would be destroyed by the monsters.

Everyone could only run forward, with captain and vice-captain Cullinan and Qin Shan at the front. It would take at least two hours to reach the enemy's jungle.

"Everyone, let's discuss the tactical plan while we run. But before that, I need to know everyone's detailed strength. Everyone, please report your level and health points. I'll go first."

"Cullinan, a 6th-level warrior, level 170, with 8 HP." After Cullinan finished speaking, he turned to look at Qin Shan next to him.

Qin Shan frowned, but still reported his level.

"Qin Shan, rank 6 warrior, level 170, HP 7."

"Qin Chuan, 6th-rank Taoist priest, level 168, 4 HP."

"Qin Han, 5th-turn mage, level 160, HP 2."

"Xiong Dalin, 6th-rank Taoist priest, level 164, 3 HP."

"Xiong Xiaolin, 6th-turn mage, level 164, 2 HP."

"Huang Zhen, 6th-rank mage, level 163, 2 HP."

"Chu Huaiyu, rank 6 warrior, level 162, 7 HP."

"Chu Huaizhu, 5th-turn mage, level 160, HP 2."

"Yuan Bufan, rank 6 mage, level 169, HP 3."

"Brooke, 5th-turn Taoist priest, level 140, 3 HP." Brook also honestly stated his level and HP. There was no need to hide such things; they would be clear at a glance during the battle.

Cullinan and the others turned to look at Brook, the last of the group. Brook was the lowest level, apparently having only just reached Rank 5. However, his HP was quite high, almost catching up to that of the Rank 6 Taoist priest Xiong Dalin.

The team consisted of three warriors, three Taoist priests, and five mages, a fairly good mix of classes. Chu Huaiyu and Chu Huaizhu were sisters, rumored to be guest officials of a prominent family. Furthermore, Qin Han and Chu Huaizhu were both level 3, 3th level transformations. Both had reached the upper limit for 5th level transformations, and if they couldn't break through to 5th level transformation, their levels would be capped.

"Very good! Everyone is quite strong. We have eight rank 8 cultivators, and we can surround and kill even high-level monsters." Cullinan continued with satisfaction:

"Now, let me discuss the tactical plan. There are two entrances to the wild area to the right of the monster. I suggest everyone enter from the entrance below the river. Once inside, the Taoist priest will act as a scout. He can send his baby divine beast ahead to explore the way. Everyone else should maintain a 2-yard distance from the scout. If they encounter danger, the Taoist scout can flash back and enter the team's attack range. They can advance or retreat, combining offense and defense."

"The items dropped by the bosses and monsters you encounter along the way will be stored with me first. I will distribute them as needed after the mission is completed."

"Do you have any comments?"

As soon as Cullinan finished speaking, Qin Shan jumped out and sang a different tune:

"I have an opinion! Since we have two quest compasses and two entrances to the wild area, we should split up to be more efficient. Also, the items dropped by killing monsters should be distributed according to class on the spot. Mage items should be given to mages, warrior items should be given to warriors. For those of the same class, the stronger ones should be given priority."

"Ridiculous! Do you think I haven't thought about splitting up? Once we separate, our strength will be weakened. If we encounter high-level magical beasts, especially the strongest high-level magical beasts, we will not be able to defeat them without sufficient personnel. And the allocation method you mentioned is even more inappropriate. There are five mage brothers in the team. If we distribute them according to needs, won't they suffer?" Cullinan immediately retorted.

"You still want to defeat the strongest high-level monsters? Haha, if we encounter a powerful monster, of course we will turn around and run. Don't forget, our goal is to explore the wild area, not kill monsters. We will only take action when we encounter ordinary monsters that we are confident of defeating."

"Haha, you must be scared by the strongest high-level monster. Let me tell you, I have killed the strongest monster with the Duanmu family team before. As long as we cooperate well, we can also kill it!"

"Your so-called strongest monster is probably a young monster that just debuted and hasn't yet learned its ultimate move. How could an adult monster defeat it?!"

"You're really surprised by what you've seen. I can tell you clearly that the monsters I've killed before were indeed fully grown, powerful monsters!"

"...Maybe your previous team can do it, but our current team can't. We are all level 6, without level 7 advanced skills, and cannot deal with the strongest monsters. I think we should go separately and avoid fighting with the strongest monsters." Qin Shan insisted.

"When we unite, we are strong; when we separate, we are weak. Don't you understand such a simple truth? As long as we unite and work together, we can form a powerful force, enough to kill all the monsters we encounter!" Cullinan said excitedly.

"You're just making empty promises. You're going to kill everyone."

"Everyone, listen up! I'm a soldier. I'll be at the forefront of the battle. If I have to die, I'll be the first to die. How could I harm you all? As long as you listen to my commands and carry them out carefully, I guarantee that we'll complete the mission successfully!"

"No! I absolutely object!"

"I'm the captain, you have to listen to me!"

"I'm the vice-captain, I also have the mission compass, I have the right to object!"

Cullinan and Qin Shan each have their own opinions, and everyone in the team also has their own thoughts.

Some people thought Cullinan had a point. Since he said he'd killed the strongest monster, and since he said he'd be at the forefront, he was probably telling the truth. If he could truly kill the strongest monster, the rewards would surely be excellent.

Some also supported Qin Shan. Many had witnessed the power of the Xeon Monsters. Killing them was no easy feat. It was better to be cautious.

"In that case, let's vote! If more people support you, then I will listen to you and go with you. If more people support me, then we will split up and explore separately." Qin Shan said.

Qin Shan said this because he was confident of winning the vote. Not to mention the others, his two brothers, Qin Chuan and Qin Han, would definitely support him, meaning he was already 3 to 1 ahead from the start.

"Haha, then let's vote!" Cullinan sneered. He also had two loyal subordinates in this team.

"Everyone stop. Stand by my side, my supporters."

Cullinan and Qin Shan stood on the left and right. Everyone began to vote.

Xiong Dalin, Xiong Xiaolin, Chu Huaiyu, and Chu Huaizhu chose Cullinan.

Qin Chuan, Qin Han, Huang Zhen, and Yuan Bufan chose Qin Shan.

Brooke was the only one left. Brooke walked behind Cullinan.

Yuan Bufan was stunned. He thought Brook would definitely stand on his side.

"Haha~Okay, Brook! Your choice is correct! Qin Shan, what else do you have to say now?"

No one expected that the weakest 140th Taoist Brook would be so brave and want to challenge the strongest Warcraft.

"I have nothing to say. We will follow you. However, if any items or equipment are dropped, they must be distributed on the spot." This was all Qin Shan could say.

"I originally thought that if there were any casualties, all the items in the backpack would explode. So I put them all with me so that they can be better kept for everyone. Although the dead teammates will fail the mission and cannot obtain the mission rewards, at least they can wait for others to return to the city and share the equipment dropped by the monsters. Since you don't trust me so much, fine, it's up to you. We will distribute it on the spot, but it will not be the distribution on demand as you said, but an internal auction within the team, and the gold ingots auctioned will be divided equally among others." Cullinan said.

"Okay, let's do it." Qin Shan agreed.

"Is everything alright? Let's keep going!"

The team set out again.

Brooke and Yuan Bufan were still at the end of the group. Yuan Bufan asked quietly:

"Why did you choose Cullinan? The strongest monster is so powerful, how can you kill it?"

"That's why I chose him. Since he has killed before, we must learn from him and see how he kills." Brook replied.

"...Oh my god! If we fail, someone might die."

"Do you still have a chance to reincarnate and be resurrected?" Brook asked.

"Yes, I have."

"Then what are you afraid of? But I'm warning you. If you really die, don't rush to reincarnate and revive. Just lie on the ground for a few minutes first."

"why?"

"Because maybe I'll come back to save you. I'll carry your body back to the city, to the Fountain of Life. The water there is enough to rapidly restore life just by being nearby. I want to see if giving you a drink of the water directly can bring you back to life."
