When You Become an NPC That Might Die Any Moment in the Novice Village-Chapter 119 - 59 Ah, I hit Bai Fu? [Subscribe please]

A few days ago.

Upon learning that Li Cheng was exposed along with the death of six mutants, even the typically composed Chairman of the Truth Society couldn't help but explode.

"How could Li Cheng be so incompetent, to fail to kill a nobody three times and instead get himself involved!"

He scolded Li Cheng in front of the Combat Department Director Bernardo for a full two and a half minutes until he felt parched and stopped to take a sip of water.

Bernardo explained, "Chairman, Li Cheng indeed didn't handle the situation well, but there is something fishy about this matter."

He detailed the intelligence sent back by agent C6, with the most noteworthy point being that Bai Fu seemed to know Li Cheng was a spy even before he revealed his identity.

The Chairman said, "Are you suggesting that they knew his identity all along and set him up?"

Bernardo pulled out a document, "According to my investigation, they likely didn't know beforehand; otherwise, their actions during that operation wouldn't have been so rushed."

"So the problem lies with Bai Fu," the Chairman narrowed his eyes.

Bernardo nodded, "That's what I think, but I just can't figure out how Bai Fu found out this secret. When Li Cheng tried to assassinate her the second time, one of her subordinates followed the assassin Li Cheng had sent, but that subordinate was quickly silenced. According to the data sent back by Li Cheng, he personally confirmed that the subordinate was alone and had no communication devices on him. Unless he turned into a ghost and the ghost informed Bai Fu, otherwise..."

The Chairman chuckled coldly, "I don't believe in ghosts."

"Then what do you suggest, Chairman?"

The Chairman slowly articulated his conclusion, "There are two possibilities, the first is that Bai Fu can read minds, and the second is that we have a spy among us. Which one do you believe?"

It was normal for him to think this way; he couldn't imagine that there was suddenly a group of beings called 'players' capable of resurrection.

Bernardo broke into a cold sweat, "Chairman, it... it can't be that bad, only the higher-ups knew about Li Cheng's identity, to have a spy among them, this..."

"Who can guarantee that?"

The Chairman had already decided to initiate a thorough internal purge.

Actually, Li Cheng's exposure didn't significantly affect the bigger picture since he had been dragging on for a long time, but the Chairman was still annoyed.

Starting from the Abandoned Cooling Factory, that woman named Bai Fu had messed with the Truth Society four times. Though each incident didn't cause significant damage, it was too damn embarrassing that such a prestigious society couldn't handle one woman.

Now, rumors were circulating outside that the Truth Society should change its name to "True Bug Society."

A cold gleam flashed in the Chairman's eyes.

Bai Fu, huh? I don't care what your identity is or how mysterious you are, provoking the Truth Society only leads to one path—death!

"Stop hiring assassins on the Dark Web, send our own assassins!"

"Right, if I remember correctly, Julia's new Fake Body is at Genetic Primordial now, right? Bai Fu let her escape at the Abandoned Cooling Factory, send her along."

Bernardo immediately took action upon receiving the order.

Truth Society's Elite Assassins, Guido and Julia, were notified one after another, showing different reactions.

"Ah, I'm fighting Bai Fu?"

Guido's mouth twitched.

Bai Fu had single-handedly killed six mutants, her power was not to be underestimated. Fortunately, Julia would be joining the mission, which improved his mood significantly.

With Julia, that Spiritual Energy genius, they're going to win!

Julia's reaction differed greatly from Guido's.

"Ah, I'm fighting Bai Fu?"

The same words, but her tone revealed uncontrollable excitement.

The moment had come; she had been controlling her Fake Body in the secret lab within Genetic Primordial's territory just for this opportunity!

She held Bai Fu's photo, her eyes shimmering, cheeks flushed, even her breathing quickened, symptoms very similar to players going through a Fu addiction.

"Finally, the day has come, Bai Fu!"

Julia's dexterous fingers gently caressed Bai Fu's face in the photo.

She recalled the day at the Abandoned Cooling Factory, Bai Fu's furious shout "Enough", and the punch Bai Fu had landed on her.

From that day on, Bai Fu's image was deeply imprinted in her heart.

She thought about Bai Fu's body while eating, while bathing, and even while sleeping. Bai Fu had become her obsessive thought.

"Once I catch you, I will slice your body slowly, piece by piece, and see how you managed to escape my Spirit Master."

Julia's eyes shimmered with a sinister glow.

As long as she figured this out, she could have a chance to escape the control of the Truth Society.

...

"Achoo."

Bai Fu, who had just left Digging Girl's place, sneezed.

She always felt like she was being targeted by something formidable, but it was probably just her imagination.

She had just found Digging Girl and her group and had confirmed the departure time to attack the Truth Society base the day after tomorrow.

Time was pressing, and now she needed to hurry and create more Prayer Cards. The more Prayer Cards she had, the better her chances of survival in battle.

Not long after Bai Fu left, Sky-Surpassing Sword Qi immediately convened the upper echelons of the Iron Rain Guild in a virtual meeting room.

"Everyone, I have great news!"

Since Bai Fu had come to notify him, Sky-Surpassing Sword Qi had been in an excited mood.

"What great news?" Vice Chairman Cheese Snow Leopard asked, puzzled.

The Kobold laughed, "Brother Jian, stop teasing us. If you don't tell us, I'm going to."

Sky-Surpassing Sword Qi hurriedly said, "Didn't I ask everyone to track down the Truth Society's whereabouts? Just now, I found them."

Really, is the intelligence true or false?

Everyone in the meeting room looked at Sky-Surpassing Sword Qi with surprised faces.

Sky-Surpassing Sword Qi explained, "Just now, Bai Fu informed me that the next action is to attack the Truth Society base. I've been lurking around her for so long, and it really paid off!"

"This is an opportunity, Brother Jian," Cheese Snow Leopard's brain whirred into action, "If we can inform the base about the attack in advance, our joining the Truth Society will be noticed and it will be very beneficial for our future development."

Sky-Surpassing Sword Qi agreed very much, "That's what I think too. The only problem is how to inform them in advance. Bai Fu didn't tell me the exact location of the base, so we can't go there ahead of time. We'll have to play it by ear. But it's okay even if we can't inform them in advance. Our main goal this time is to join the Truth Society. We can slowly increase our Camp Reputation later. As far as I know, no players have joined the Truth Society yet. If we succeed, we will definitely become the top guild in version 1.0!"

His words caused boundless speculations in the meeting room.

The Iron Rain Guild was a well-known guild, but it was still a distance from being a top guild. Sky-Surpassing Sword Qi's biggest dream was to lead the Iron Rain Guild to the top and achieve fame and fortune.

Frankly, he had been getting along quite well with Bai Fu these days. If he were not the chairman of the Iron Rain Guild, he might have just stayed by Bai Fu's side.

But there are not so many ifs in the world. If he wanted to be the first, he could only use Bai Fu as a stepping stone.

In the following time, Sky-Surpassing Sword Qi and core members of the guild discussed how to inform the Truth Society in advance.

...

The day before the operation, Bai Fu watched as Li Cheng was stuffed into a car heading to the Sea Capital. She had heard that the top management of Genetic Primordial in the Sea Capital planned to interrogate Li Cheng personally.

She wasn't too concerned about this. Right now, all she wanted to do was try out the Power Armor Xia Shi had made.

Unexpectedly, when she arrived at Xia Shi's workshop, she didn't see Xia Shi. She searched around and finally found Xia Shi running in sportswear, tied up in a ponytail, huffing and puffing, and still running despite being drenched in sweat.

"Are you sick, running here in the middle of the night?" Bai Fu asked, puzzled.

When Xia Shi realized it was her, she stopped. Her face looked somewhat solemn, "I like to run when I'm bothered. It helps me clear my mind and think better."

"Bothered? You're not starting to think that the fee I gave for the Power Armor was too low, are you?"

"That's not it." Xia Shi shook her head, "When Li Cheng was being taken away, he said that thing to me again."

"What thing?"

"You don't even know who you are."

Bai Fu patted Xia Shi's shoulder, "Philosophical issues, ah. Many people are unclear about who they truly are. Don't fret over it."

Xia Shi looked bewildered, "I don't think he was being cryptic, but I can't figure it out. Once this operation is over, I plan to take a leave and have a good talk with my dad."

Bai Fu was taken aback.

Wait, did you just jinx it?
