Legend of Mir 2: Seeking the Truth in Marfa

Brooke took out various pieces of jewelry and had Xiaobai try them on. He found that Xiaobai could only wear equipment up to level 13. For example, the black crystal necklace, with an attack of 1-0, required level 13, and could be worn. However, if it was higher, it would not work.

The same was true for other rings and bracelets. Even when Brook took out his treasured level 15 prayer bracelet, Xiaobai couldn't wear it. So it seemed that Xiaobai's original level was level 13 or 14.

Although Xiaobai was upgraded to level 7 after being summoned and his name turned dark blue, it seemed that the equipment he could wear could only be based on his original level.

不过这也没有关系。有很多首饰是不依赖等级的，譬如骷髅戒指，只要求攻击力满30即可佩戴。所以布鲁克就给小白带了2个攻击0-3骷髅戒指。手镯暂时也没有好的，先带了2个防御1-1的大手镯，项链就带了那个金项链。头盔带了防御2-3的骷髅头盔。

The jewelry was very small, and on Xiaobai, it was inconspicuous. As for the skull helmet, Xiaobai was already a skull, so when he put it on his head, no one could see it. As for the clothes, Brook thought about it and decided not to let Xiaobai wear them because they were too conspicuous.

This improved Xiaobai's stats slightly, with his attack increasing by 7 points and his defense by 5. It wasn't a huge increase, so he'd trade it for better equipment later. Even the bronze axe, Brook could upgrade it with black iron ore in Shabak.

The future is bright! But I still have to finish my classes.

"Xiaobai, let's speed up and only talk about the jewelry you can wear. Now let's talk about the white tiger tooth necklace. Wearing it requires Taoism 11 and has a 20% magic evasion, which means there is a chance to dodge single-target magic attacks. Today I saw someone selling a tiger tooth necklace with Luck 1 and Taoism 2, but unfortunately the Luck was a bit low. If it had Luck 2, I would have bought it. Anything that can increase Luck is good. Luck, you know..."

Brooke spent more than 40 minutes explaining some jewelry that Xiaobai could use. Xiaobai tilted his head and was stunned, probably because he didn't understand.

"It's okay, take your time," Brooke consoled Xiaobai, and herself. "It's already 1 a.m. I need to get some rest and sleep."

At 4 a.m., Brook woke up. He walked out of the inn, but didn't see Bayin. In the past, Bayin always waited for him, so this time, Brook didn't see Bayin, and he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Brook immediately opened the guild chat, then remembered that he had turned off the guild chat. He used the command @ to reject the guild chat and reopened it. Immediately, he could hear the guild chat.

"I'm selling a bottle of blessing oil. It just exploded. 40. Anyone want it?"

"Where did it explode?"

"It's a commercial secret, I can't tell you."

"Tsk, I knew it was the Serpent Valley right away. At your level, you can only defeat tigers and snakes. It's a trade secret, I knew it long ago."

"You know, but you still ask."

"Let's see if you're honest."

"Buying black iron ore, purity above 10%, 1 gold coins per piece; purity above 15%, 2 gold coins per piece; purity above 20%, 3 gold coins per piece."

"Do you collect gold mines?"

"No, only black iron ore."

"Why only collect black iron ore? Isn't gold ore better?"

"...It's hard for me to explain to you, but you'll understand when you grow up."

"Oh my god, I'm almost 30 and I'm still growing up."

"For sale is a 1-3 Daoist magic demon-slaying sword."

"Is there anyone from the guild in the Biqi Mine who can help with the PK?"

"It's late at night, so just level up. Why bother fighting? Everyone is asleep."

"The Corpse King's Palace~The Corpse King's Palace is about to open!"

"Oh my god, why didn't you tell me earlier? Come on, come on, everyone who's free in the club, come on."

"It would be better if some big guys came. There are 10 people on the opposite side, all of them are above level 22, and some are even level 25."

.......

It's early morning, the least crowded time of the day, and yet there are still so many people talking. If it were peak time at noon or 8pm, it would probably be even busier than the square.

"Is Bayin here? I'm at Tucheng Inn. Please answer if you hear me." Brooke couldn't find Bayin, so he had to look for him in the guild chat.

"I'm in Biqi, I'll be back soon, wait." Bayin replied immediately.

"Bayin, Brook. These two are the elders of our guild, right?"

"Yes. Elder Bayin, Elder Brook, come to the Biqi Mine to fight. The Corpse King Palace is about to open."

"Sorry, we have something else to do. We can't go to the mine." Brook said.

"If you don't come, we won't be able to defeat you. The elders should lead us."

"That's right. Yesterday the president asked us to unite. As elders, shouldn't we set an example?"

"Um, sorry, we are not interested in the Palace of the Corpse King. You guys should form your own team." Brook continued.

"No one from the guild came to help? And where are the elders?"

"Hey, I'm an elder and I look down on the Corpse King Palace. People are selfish, so just stop talking. If you keep talking, you might get kicked out."

"If I say I have something to do, then I have something to do. If I say I won't go, then I won't go!" These people were sarcastic, and Brooke was a little angry.

"Oh my~ The elder is throwing a tantrum, that's amazing~"

"You don't dare to come, right? You heard others trembling with fear at level 25, right? You don't even dare to come for PK. If you don't have the guts, don't be an elder!"

"We're already in Mengzhong Tucheng. It's not convenient to go to the Bichi mining area right now. Can you guys just form a team and go there?" Bayin arrived at the entrance of the Tucheng Inn. Of course she had to help Brooke.

"You were in Biqi just a minute ago, and now you're in Tucheng? If you don't want to come, then don't come. Can't you find a better excuse? Do you think we're stupid? I won't believe you~"

"Haha, he's an elder, so of course he's faster than us. We use random numbers, while the elder uses a plane."

"Are you done yet? Who stipulated that the elders must help you level up and get equipment? Who stipulated that the elders must help you if you have any problems? Go find your parents if you have any problems!"

Bayin also got angry and started to criticize him directly in the guild.

"Complain! Tomorrow, when the guild president comes, I'll complain to him and let him judge the situation. Not only did he not come to help, but he also lied to us, and he's an elder. This is really a disgrace to our guild."

"That's right, the liar elder!"

"What did I lie to you about?" Bayin frowned his crescent-shaped eyebrows and was about to continue arguing with these people.

"Forget it, don't argue with them, it's pointless." Brook quickly stopped him, "Calm down and focus. Let's turn off the guild chat first."

Bayin exhaled angrily, nodded, and closed the guild chat. He took a few more breaths and smiled again, "The guild is too noisy. It's a bit annoying. I guess I'll have to turn off the chat from now on. But I still want to use the guild chat function."

"Let's set up our own guild. We can accept Xiao Shuai, Zheng Nan, Zhici Qinglu and others in the future. We will only accept Marfa monks or those good warriors from other worlds." Brook suggested.

"Okay! I still have a horn anyway. But I have to tell Zhengnan, he's probably resting right now. Let's finish the Hornfly quest first, then we can go to Biqi together to create a guild." Bayin agreed happily, then hesitated again, "What do you think the guild should be called?"

Brooke pondered, feeling lost for a moment on what name to choose. Gazing at the familiar city walls, he recalled the poignant beauty of yesterday's hazy, drizzling scene. Standing for a century, its sparkling flames lingering, shrouded in mist and rain, a city shrouded in dust and sand. An idea struck Brooke, and a name came to mind.

"Let's call it "Eternal Wind City." " Brook said.

"The Immortal Wind City...the sparks are immortal, the Misty Wind City. What a good name!" Bayin nodded in approval.

"Let's go to the Stone Tomb Formation. This time you use the teleport and I'll run the random one."

"Okay. Today I'm going to reach level 31 and learn Magic Shield."

The two of them headed to the Stone Tomb Formation to roast the pig again. Their goal was clear: leveling up first and completing the Horn Fly quest along the way.

Since the horn flies couldn't move, they would only follow her over long distances. Bayin summoned five horn flies, flew them back to Tucheng, and placed them in the square to rest. She then used her teleport ring to rush to the Stone Tomb to roast the pigs and level up. The resting horn flies wouldn't follow her back to the Stone Tomb.

When the two of them were about to complete their two-hour leveling session, Bayin quickly rushed to Biqi and brought the soon-to-rebel Hornfly to the underground arena of the arena. Then, they returned to Mengzhongtu City, cleaned out their backpacks, and continued the next round of summoning Hornflies.

Running back and forth like this was indeed tiring, but thankfully, with the Teleport Ring, at least running around didn't waste too much time. However, luring the hornflies proved difficult, with each 5 hornflies taking Bayin over 20 minutes. Brook, taking advantage of Bayin's time running around and luring the hornflies, leveled up alone in the Stone Tomb, killing monsters and gradually closing the experience gap between him and Bayin.

The two even went to the seventh floor of the Stone Tomb to see if Xiao Xiami and the others were still there. Bayin had a wand in his backpack that he wanted to give to Xiao Jingjing. However, he didn't find Xiao Xiami, but unexpectedly, he discovered the group of people who had forced themselves on him.

Overlord's group was large, occupying two partitioned rooms on the seventh floor. However, their mages seemed rather underpowered, relying primarily on lightning for their attacks. The team in the partitioned room below surprisingly didn't have a fire wall on the floor, perhaps because their mages lacked mana and the fire wall wasn't powerful enough, so they simply forgot to lay fire. The other team members were standing around, presumably chatting amongst themselves, leisurely sharing their mages' monster-killing experiences.

Brook observed from a distance on the 7th floor stairs for a while, and before the other party noticed, he had returned to the stone tomb formation.

Where had Xiao Xiami and the others gone? They'd even given up on the seventh floor of the Stone Tomb. Confused, they returned to the Stone Tomb formation to roast the pig.

By 3 p.m., Bayin and Brook had both reached level 31. Bayin had finally mastered the mage's level 31 skill, "Magic Shield." Upon unleashing this skill, Bayin was enveloped in a yellow aura, like an eggshell, for about 10 seconds. It's said that a level 0 Magic Shield can resist 15% of incoming damage. As the skill level increases, the duration of the Magic Shield increases, and the amount of damage it resists also increases.

At this time, the time for Hornfly's rebellion was about to come, so the two returned to Tucheng together.

In the Stone Tomb formation, they'd managed to find over 20 pieces of minor, top-tier equipment in just half a day. There was even a rare chance of a drop. A 500 HP Elite Scorpion Snake unexpectedly dropped a Memory Helmet! A Memory Helmet was considered a prestigious item, and how could it actually drop from an elite monster? This delighted Brook and the others, and further solidified their resolve to level more often in the Stone Tomb formation.

这一次的物品基本都是巴音捡的。其中有些加攻击的小极品，都被布鲁克要了过来。2个攻击0-4的骷髅戒指，2个攻击0-1的大手镯，1个攻击0-1的骷髅头，正好可以给小白佩戴。目前小白的攻击10-58，防御15，比以前更加给力了。

Bayin temporarily stored the remaining small treasures in the warehouse. She used the teleportation ring to take the five baby hornflies to Biqi. This was the last batch of hornflies for the mission, and after delivering them, the total number would be 5. She also needed to talk to Zhengnan about leaving the guild.

Brook used a random scroll and a map run to rush to Biqi. When he arrived in Biqi Province, a random scroll flew to the southeast corner of Biqi City, right in front of the arena.

The arena is right in front of the Feitian Martial Arts School, so Brook can go in and take a look. Inside, he sees two large arenas, one of which is occupied by the headmaster. If you want to take on a disciple, you need to go to the headmaster. Brook doesn't have a disciple yet, so he doesn't talk to him.

Further inside the arena, a staircase descended, revealing the underground arena Bayin had mentioned. Brook walked down and was stunned by the sight: the vast arena was densely packed with bats on both sides. Fifteen hornflies were neatly arranged on each side, each spitting out a bat every two seconds. In the center stood two rows of disciples from the Feitian Martial Arts School, each row also containing fifteen. They brandished their daggers to slash at the bats, occasionally lowering their heads to pick up the medicine, scrolls, or gold coins that the bats had dropped. It was a truly orderly and well-organized scene, like a scroll-making factory.
