When You Become an NPC That Might Die Any Moment in the Novice Village-Chapter 258 - 109 The Spear Piercing the Truth Society, Bai Fu’s Output Limit [6.3k]_2
A direct assault is too risky; better to figure out exactly what this place is first, then decide what to do.
Bai Fu's gaze fell on the players.
Raise players for a thousand days, use them for a moment.
"I need a few people to lure those guards out of the valley."
As soon as Bai Fu spoke up, the players that had come with her eagerly volunteered, and she picked a few who seemed rather sharp, then stuffed several Spiritual Ability Shield Cards into their hands.
Be good; you've been enhanced, now go give it away!
The chosen players, blood boiling with excitement, nodded and jubilantly set off toward the valley. Their task was simple: act like unintended Wanderers who had stumbled into the valley and draw the guards out.
As it turned out, the players didn't need to act at all. No sooner had they entered the valley than the guards by the helicopter noticed them.
"Who are you?"
"I..."
A player had just opened his mouth when an impatient guard pulled out a gun.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A hail of bullets came at them, sending the players scrambling for cover.
"Don't let them get away!"
The guards angrily pursued the players. This was a top-secret site; its location absolutely could not be compromised.
The Total Level twenty-something guards chasing the barely level ten-something players were playing with them; no matter how hard the players tried, they were blocked off right as they ran out of the valley.

"Run, why aren't you running now? Don't blame me for being ruthless; if you want to blame anyone, blame yourselves for seeing something you shouldn't have!"
The sneering guard's finger pressed against the trigger, but just as he was about to shoot, a Flowing Light suddenly shot out from the side.
It was a milky-white spear about 2 meters long, moving incredibly fast. In an instant, it pierced the bodies of four guards who had bolted out.
Intense pain radiated from their wounds, and before the four guards could scream, the dark figure that followed the spear raised their right hand.
Spiritual Explosion!
Spiritual energy burst forth like a fountain from Black Fu's right palm, and under its impact, all four guards lost balance and fell to the ground.
Black Fu pulled out the Electric Knife Bai Fu had given her, with a spark of electrical arc, the blade swept across two of the guards' necks.
[You have killed ??? guard...]
[You have killed ??? guard...]
Game notifications sounded in succession.
A smooth sequence of movements—it all took just four seconds.
Then, Black Fu turned her attention to the third target.
"Help...mmm."
A guard had just opened his mouth when Black Fu stuffed it with a cloth gag.
But at that moment, the last guard frantically got up from the ground and bolted.
"Damn it, stop him!"
The nearby players' faces changed, and they dashed after him in quick succession.
The fleeing guard was now in full desperation mode, ignoring several attacks from the players, and staggered out of the encirclement.
The players were not about to let him get away that easily, but as soon as they started to follow, Black Fu's voice rang out.
"Don't chase him; I let him go on purpose. Otherwise, he wouldn't even have had the chance to stand."
Black Fu had secretly attached a Dark Moon Eye Prayer Card to the escaping guard while she was slaughtering the other two with the Electric Knife. Letting him return was just a way to use him to gather information.
"Let's go."
It was only after Black Fu had walked off into the distance with the gagged guard that the players who had served as bait finally came back to their senses.
[Whoa, Fu's twin sister is so cool!]
[No kidding, that's Fu's sister; how could she not be cool? Last time she was dominating a Sandworm BOSS, right?]
[Although Sister Fu is great, she's too aloof, completely antisocial, not approachable like Fu. What I can't stand the most is why she would wear shoes. Why not stay barefoot like she did last time, ah ah ah ah!]
[I like the cool type.]
...
Several minutes after Black Fu had walked away, she stopped, pulled the cloth gag from the guard's mouth, and began to interrogate him for information.
As expected, this guard's lips were sealed tighter than stone; no amount of interrogation could get him to open up.
"Admirable courage, but useless."
Bai Fu, controlling Black Fu, decisively ended the life of the guard.
She had allowed Black Fu to let one guard go, anticipating this kind of situation, and it was time for the Dark Moon Eye to take effect.
Bai Fu connected to the Dark Moon Eye Prayer Card. Since the card was stuck on the inside of the guard's clothes, she couldn't see anything—which wasn't a big deal, as long as she could hear.
"I'll watch the valley entrance; you guys take him to the lab for treatment, and in passing, inform the Chairman about what happened here!"
"Yes, Captain!"
A flurry of footsteps sounded, followed by the heavy noise of a door opening and closing.
The Chairman?
Bai Fu's eyelids twitched violently at the sudden mention of this title.
Surely she hadn't encountered that person, had she?
More voices came through the Dark Moon Eye.
"What's going on?"
"An outsider has broken in; he was ambushed while chasing them. Where's the Chairman? I must tell the Chairman immediately; the intruders are strong!"
"The Chairman went to check the results of the Mutant project."
"How long until he comes out?"
"The Chairman has just gone in; I reckon at least half an hour at the earliest."
"Half an hour? Those people will probably have run off by now. We need to send someone after them straight away; otherwise, the lab's location will be compromised!"
