Legend of Mir 2: Seeking the Truth in Marfa

The ancient dragon flew northwest along the river. As it was about to fly out of the sight of the scout guards, Brook immediately activated the detection necklace.

A blue dot appeared on the compass map. The dragon had already left the river and entered the jungle, flying at a rapid speed. It would soon reach the middle lane controlled by the demon beasts, then enter the unexplored jungle area, before disappearing completely, not appearing again until next month.

A bold idea suddenly came to Brook's mind.

Anyway, I have the resurrection ring, so I'm not afraid! I made up my mind, activated the teleportation ring, and flew to the bushes in the wild area to the right of the monster.

Brook and Yuan Bufan had just been here, and the mobs had already been cleared. A few common monsters, like the Death Knight and Blademaster, were still fighting in the distant river, so this place was relatively safe. However, this place was close to the middle lane, and Brook had never seen the monsters there.

"Xiaobai, do you sense any other monsters around? Especially in the middle lane." Brick asked cautiously.

Xiaobai carefully checked and replied, "I didn't sense any magical beast's presence."

If the monster hides in the cave, Xiaobai will not be able to sense it.

"Okay. Xiaobai, I'm going to do something dangerous. Go back to the summoning talisman and hide. I'll call you out later."

Brook put Xiaobai into the summoning talisman, then stared at the compass map and waited quietly.

The blue dot was approaching. Brook looked up, peering through the thin mist at the sky. The ancient dragon had appeared, approaching from afar, growing larger and larger.

ready!

It's now!

The ancient dragon flew past, and Brook in the grass disappeared.

The sound of wind whistled beside my ears, and the scenery on the ground passed by quickly; in front of me was a huge dragon head, and its silver-gray mane was clearly visible; the broad wings on both sides were flapping rhythmically, causing the whole body to rise and fall and sway slightly.

Brook successfully teleported to the back of the ancient dragon!

The ancient dragon seemed to sense something, turned its head and glanced, and found Brook on its back.

What a courage! A cold light flashed in the dragon's eyes, and it turned its head and spewed out a huge fireball.

Although the dragon's back allowed him to move within a three-yard radius, Brook didn't dodge, not even equipping a shield. With a bang, the fireball dissipated, and Brook lost nearly 3 HP. Another fireball followed, and Brook collapsed, his HP reduced to zero. He also revealed four pieces of equipment: Fire Dragon, Taurus, and Overlord.

The audacious human was dead, and the ancient dragon turned and continued flying. As for the pieces of equipment that had exploded, it didn't need to be sucked into its belly; it placed them on its back and carried them directly back to its lair.

Brook, of course, wasn't dead; he had simply triggered the suspended animation state of his resurrection ring, allowing him to be resurrected at any time within a minute. And those Taurus and Domination equipment were also thrown out by Brook when the second fireball arrived.

Half a minute later, they reached the center of the monster's path. Below them was the monster's underground camp, with two orc-built arrow towers standing in front of it. The ancient dragon flew overhead, observing. It seemed to know the towers' range was only 100 yards, so it chose to bypass them instead.

Seeing that the dragon's attention was focused on the monster camp below, Brook took the opportunity to revive himself, and immediately replaced the teleportation ring with the invisibility ring, then gently sat cross-legged on the dragon's back.

The ancient dragon seemed to sense something and turned to investigate. The human had vanished, likely returning to the city after death. There was no one on its back, yet why did it feel like there was something there? The dragon was puzzled.

Oh~ It might be an illusion caused by the equipment that fell on my back.

The ancient dragon understood, so he stopped thinking and flew forward at a faster speed.

It quickly flew past the middle lane and entered the upper left jungle area. Brook had never been to this jungle area before. As the dragon flew, the relevant area on the compass map began to light up.

The intense midday sun shone directly down, and the fog in the Monster Wild Area had almost completely dissipated. Mountains, forests, rock faces, swamps, and grasslands were all revealed. Brook saw the Razorback, the Crimson Marked Tree Monster, the Stone Beetle, and some of the Monster Minions, bosses, humanoids, and magical beasts that often frequented the Wild Area.

The dragon suddenly flapped its wings vigorously, and the scene on the ground gradually became smaller. It had already flown out of the wild area, flew over the monster camp on the left, and flew towards the upper left, that is, the northwest corner. The dragon flew higher and higher, leaping over the towering and steep cliffs at the edge of the canyon, soaring above the abyss. With its wings spread out, it glided into the distance, facing the strong wind and air currents.

The dragon had already flown out of the canyon where the Warcraft battlefield was located and entered a brand new map. Unfortunately, there was nothing here except a bottomless abyss.

After flying for over half an hour, they finally left the abyss. Ahead lay a vast expanse of towering mountains, one peak after another rising from the ground. The ancient dragon twisted left and right among the peaks, finally arriving at a gently sloping, circular valley, four or five hundred yards in radius, forming a natural lair.

The dragon flapped its wings to slow down, then descended slowly. Its feet touched the ground, landing smoothly.

The equipment on the dragon's back slipped off, and Brook also dodged to the side.

Suddenly, a loud dragon roar was heard faintly from outside the valley.

The ancient dragon turned around and roared suddenly outside the nest, and thunderous roars spread out.

Immediately afterwards, several dragon roars were heard, some high, some low, some dull, some loud, some sharp, and some rough, one after another, with ups and downs, and lingering for a long time.

The ancient dragon roared for a while, and finally stopped. Two balls of flame spewed out of its nostrils. It no longer paid attention to the sounds outside and walked towards the corner deep in the nest.

The dragon's roar gradually faded away and finally stopped completely.

Many other dragons live in this valley, and the elemental dragon Yuan Bufan mentioned might be nearby. Was the roar just now a demonstration between dragons, or a friendly greeting?

Judging from the ancient dragon's angry expression, it's most likely the former.

Brooke opened the compass map. His pupils immediately shrank. He had thought this was an unknown area, but he hadn't expected it to have a name.

This place is called Dragon Valley!

The map has a name, which means that someone has been here before, and it is not like what Yuan Bufan said that no one has ever set foot here.

Brick thought about it and roughly guessed the reason.

The Dragon Empire has a history of at least several hundred years. While not many monks possess divine artifacts, over the course of several hundred years, the number is considerable. Those who possess divine artifacts are the elite of the elite. Brook is definitely not the only one who has thought of using a teleportation ring to fly onto the back of a dragon. It's possible that our ancestors, like Brook, arrived here, or by other means, and they discovered the Dragon Valley long ago.

Perhaps it was because the place was too remote, requiring a giant dragon ride to reach it, a difficult feat; perhaps it was because artifacts like the teleportation ring had been lost, preventing future generations from reaching the Dragon Valley; or perhaps there were other special reasons why our ancestors kept the map secret. Over time, most cultivators, including Yuan Bufan and even Wenren Tianxiang, were unaware of its existence.

Whatever the reason is, it doesn't matter anymore. The most important thing is that Brook has set foot here.

Although dragons can produce the highest-level dragon-slaying equipment, Brook had come here by all means, not for the dragon-slaying equipment. Brook was very self-aware of the ancient dragon's power, and with his current strength, it was best not to disturb the ancient dragon.

Brook was interested in another point: according to legend, dragons like to collect shiny treasures, and they like to store them in their nests.

Just now in the river, the ancient dragon didn't forget to collect equipment during the battle. So, the rumors are likely true!
