Legend of Mir 2: Seeking the Truth in Marfa

The 10 minutes were up. The three of them stood up and went to the mission officer to check.

......

As expected, there were over ten new quests to assist in the attack. These were all team quests, and the rewards looked good. However, the rewards for the middle lane were significantly higher than those for the other two lanes. According to Yuan Bufan, this was because the monsters in the middle lane were very powerful.

"Brother Yuan, do you know the specific situation of the Warcraft in the middle lane?" Brook asked.

"I know a little. The three main monsters in the middle lane are Dark Ranger Traixis, Crypt Lord Anub'arak, and Pit Lord Magtheridon. Their ultimates are all very powerful. The Pit Lord's ultimate, in particular, causes a person to suffer a high level of continuous health loss that lasts for several hours. Once it strikes, unless there's a high-level Taoist priest with level 7 group healing to help heal, the person is doomed."

"For this reason, the Imperial Guard has specially equipped the outpost camp with some Taoist priests who can perform level 7 group healing. But this is only a temporary solution. The best way is to return to the life magic fountain, but the wounded are injured and cannot use the city return stone. They can only be escorted all the way back to the city by high-level Taoist priests, or use expensive team teleportation orders to pull them back to the life magic fountain to save their lives. So our team of individual cultivators try to avoid going to the middle lane." Yuan Bufan said.

"Indeed. The ultimate move of the Abyss Lord is a bit abnormal, but fortunately it cannot be used against monks above the 7th level at present. In addition, its attack power is also very strong. It is good at close combat and long-range attacks. It is very good at group battles. It can be said to be the most powerful among the main monsters. Ordinary teams are no match for it at all." Ximen Kongmie also said.

"No wonder the Abyss Lord's reward is higher than the Sword Master's."

Since only one mission could be accepted, Brooke thought for a moment and made a decision. He said to the mission officer:

"Sir, we are to receive the mission of assisting the central attack and guarding the main traffic arteries."

"The monsters in the middle lane are very powerful. Is it just the three of you? Are you sure you want to go to the middle lane?"

"Yes, just the three of us."

The mission officer paused for a moment before saying, "Since you've repeatedly completed missions with flying colors, I agree to let you take on this mission. Go! Report to the outpost camp's guard captain, Zhao Hui. He'll assign you specific guard locations. I'm about to announce a system announcement; tonight will be busy. It's been ages since we've breached a demonic beast's underground camp. I hope tonight brings success!"

Soon, the three of them simultaneously received a message from the Imperial Guard: "Urgent Mission: Launch an attack on the Monster Crypt Camp at midnight tonight. All Imperial elites are requested to assist in the battle!"

The monks returned to the city one after another, and some of those who were nearby ran directly from afar.

"Let's go, while there's still time, let's go catch two river crabs."

Brook and the other two made their way to the right side of the river and waited patiently at the river crab's spawn point. At night, there were fewer people, and the monks had all gone back to claim quests, so there was no one to compete with them. Forty minutes later, the river crab spawned. They killed it, and a Control Ward (True Ward) dropped.

Brook and the other two quickly teleported to the left river, ready to kill another river crab. The river crab was not at the spawn point, but 100 yards away, being attacked by dozens of monks.

The river crab has little health left.

The three of them stepped forward quickly, ready to snatch it away.

It is normal to fight for wild monsters, and those who are capable will get them.

"Wait!" Ximen Kongmie suddenly stopped, "These are people from the Xuanyuan family."

Xuanyuan family members? There were indeed three guests of the Xuanyuan family in that team: Qin Shan, Qin Chuan, and Qin Hai. Brook knew them, but they weren't close. A single True Eye could mean the difference between life and death for the team, so of course they had to grab it if they could.

"They are all guests of the Xuanyuan family. That female Taoist priest is a senior guest of the Xuanyuan family, a 7th-rank cultivator, Tai Chenning!"

"...Senior, you can't beat her? Or is it that she is your old lover and you are unwilling to take action?" Brook teased.

"......Didn't you see that her hair has turned white? She is a generation older than me! Although her level is higher than mine, she is a Taoist priest after all, both of us are at the 7th level, so it's uncertain who will win or lose. What I find strange is that this old woman would not go out easily, so why would she come to the Warcraft battlefield?" Ximen Kongmie was a little confused.

Suddenly, a figure appeared out of nowhere next to the river crab.

Xuanyuan Star Language!

"Teleportation ring!" Yuan Bufan blurted out.

"...Xuanyuan Xingyu, the granddaughter of the Great Sage Xuanyuan. Tai Chenning came here to protect Xuanyuan Xingyu."

The Great Sage Xuanyuan is the patriarch of the Xuanyuan family. In terms of seniority, he is one generation older than Ximen Kongmie.

The Xuanyuan family's team fought very quickly. While the three of them were talking, the river crab was already at low health. They were too far away to snatch it back in time.

Xuanyuan Xingyu came to the Warcraft battlefield for nothing more than training and upgrading, of course, it is also possible that he came for "Summoning Moon Spirit".

Do you want to go up and say hello?

Although Brook and Xuanyuan Xingyu had a deal regarding the Imperial Tomb Notes, Brook currently didn't have any extra artifacts, and the Imperial Tomb Notes were probably in the Xuanyuan family's warehouse, so they couldn't be traded in the World of Warcraft battlefield.

Forget it, this woman is very scheming and not easy to deal with. It's better not to see her.

"Let's retreat." The three turned around and retreated to the center.

※※※※※※※

"Miss, have you received the mission?"

"I got it, the one in the middle lane. Mother-in-law, is it okay?" Xuanyuan Xingyu said.

"No problem. With me here and your teleportation ring, the young lady will be safe." Tai Chenning said slowly.

"Miss, there were some people over there just now, and one of them is the Ximen Kongmie you were looking for," one of the subordinates said. As for Brooke and Yuan Bufan, they were automatically ignored.

"Ximen Kongmie? Which way did he go?"

"Heading towards the middle."

"Let's catch up."

※※※※※※※

Brook and his two companions came to the outpost camp in the middle and found the camp’s guard captain Zhao Hui.

"Sir, we have been ordered to come to the middle road to guard the main traffic route. Please give us your instructions." Brooke said.

"Few people dare to come to my middle lane to do the task. You are very good! Where are the other members of your team?" Zhao Hui asked.

"Just the three of us."

"What? Just three? Why would the mission officer entrust such an important mission to just three of you?"

"Sir, it was because the three of us killed the Prophet, Minotaur, and Swordmaster on the left!"

"...Okay, I underestimated you. I understand! But your team is too small, and I'm still a little worried. Let me arrange for you to stay in the bushes on the left. Look, this is the position." Zhao Hui pointed to the map on the wall.

Between the Central Outpost Camp and the Monster Dungeon lay a wide, open space stretching over 500 yards. Dense grass grew on both sides of the clearing, and beyond the grass lay the river.

"The Bull-Headed Swordmaster and the others are dead. The left side is relatively safe. If other teams have accepted this mission, I will send them to assist. If not, you will be on your own. If you do encounter a large number of monsters, you are not required to annihilate them, but you must report to me in advance. From midnight, you must guard the area until 0 am. If you delay military operations, no matter how great your previous contributions, you will be punished by military law!"

"Yes! Your lord!"

The three of them walked out of the tent and ran into the Xuanyuan family.

"Senior Ximen Kongmie, hello! ... Brook, you're here too? You've reached the fifth level!"

Xuanyuan Xingyu saw Ximen Kongmie walk out of the tent and hurried forward to greet him. Then he saw Yuan Bufan and Brook following behind.

"Ms. Xingyu, long time no see! Ah~ You have also reached the fifth level, congratulations!" Brook said with a smile, clasping his fists.

Xuanyuan Xingyu was very surprised. She had just reached Rank 5, thanks to the Xuanyuan Family's full support. She hadn't expected Brook to have reached Rank 5 as well.

"Ms. Xingyu, are you here in the Warcraft battlefield to complete tasks and earn merit points?" Brook asked tentatively.

"Merit points? I'm here to kill monsters." Xuanyuan Xingyu said proudly. What did she need merit points for? What could a mere merit point be worth? She was only interested in powerful monsters.

"Oh!" Brooke felt relieved. It seemed she hadn't come here for Summoning the Moon Spirit.

Xuanyuan Xingyu glanced at Brooke calmly. Although Brooke was a fifth-level cultivator, he was still only a fifth-level cultivator, and he would eventually be surpassed by her. Xuanyuan Xingyu turned to look at Ximen Kongmie in front of him and said with a smile:

"Senior Ximen, I just happened to need your help. Can I have a moment to talk?"

"What's the matter? Just tell me." Ximen Kongmie was direct. Although the Xuanyuan family was powerful, they didn't have much friendship with him, and instead had many conflicts. He was even less familiar with the little Xuanyuan Xingyu.

"It's like this, I know that you have done something wrong. It just so happens that I just came to the Warcraft battlefield, and I want to invite you to join my team and protect me. After I get out, I will definitely ask the Xuanyuan family to plead for you, which should reduce your sentence by 10 years." Xuanyuan Xingyu said.

Brook rolled his eyes at the fact that he was poaching people right in front of me.

Ximen Kongmie just shook his head slowly.

"Ten years? Not enough."

"What else do you want, Senior?"

"I want your teleportation ring!"

"How dare you! Ximen Kongmie, my young lady thinks highly of you and invites you sincerely, don't be ungrateful." Tai Chenning scolded angrily.

"If you don't want to, forget it. Let's go." Ximen Kongmie turned and left.

"Senior, will you really not consider it? Follow me, and perhaps you can kill monsters and make contributions to the empire." Xuanyuan Xingyu said again.

"No need. We can kill the monsters ourselves!" Ximen Kongmie kept walking.

Xuanyuan Xingyu frowned as she watched Ximen Kongmie and the other two from behind. She hadn't expected Ximen Kongmie to refuse so bluntly. Suddenly, she remembered what the people at the quarry had said: Ximen Kongmie had been taken away. Could it have been that rank-6 mage, Yuan Bufan? Could it have been Brook? Could these three be capable of killing monsters?

"Senior, 10 years is not a small amount of time. Why did you refuse directly? She also said that she would take you to kill monsters." Brook said with a smile.

"Nonsense! I was sentenced to life imprisonment. Will reducing it by 10 years be of any use? She herself said that she just came to the Warcraft battlefield. She probably hasn't even seen Warcraft yet. How can I ask her to take me?" Ximen Kongmie said unhappily.

"I just checked, there are five people in their team who brought a full set of zodiac animals." Yuan Bufan said.

"Just having the zodiac is useless! If we encounter a powerful monster like the Sword Saint, we will be wiped out. Taichen Ning is useless." Ximen Kongmie said.

"That's why she wants to recruit you."

"Let's go with you, kid. Even though there are only three of us, we are stronger than them!"
