When You Become an NPC That Might Die Any Moment in the Novice Village-Chapter 272 - 114 Stuns the Entire Audience, Who Exactly is Bai Fu? [2/2]_2

The Chairman had spoken, and suddenly more than a dozen pairs of eyes were locked onto Bai Fu.

Bai Fu remained as composed as ever, "Different paths do not work together."

"Good," the Chairman nodded, "I will only give you one chance, since your answer is a refusal, you'd better hide yourself, or the next time we meet will be the day of your death, none shall be able to save you!"

Bai Fu laughed, "Even though you have constantly troubled me and made multiple death threats against me, I actually bear no hatred toward you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have progressed so quickly, so the next time we meet, I will leave you a complete corpse."

"You have no idea what my limits are!"

The Chairman ended the conversation outright.

He showed no emotion on his face, but from the tone of his voice, it was clear that he was on the verge of losing control.

Bai Fu was unconcerned, she turned to the Mechanic beside her, "How is it, have you located him?"

The Mechanic looked embarrassed, "There's a Mechanic on the other side, and his skills far surpass mine, all of my attempts have failed."

Figures, I knew it would be like this.

Bai Fu had not been hopeful to begin with, so she couldn't really say she was disappointed.

"Do as you see fit."

She spoke to the people around her, then went to check the other gains from this action on her own.

Besides the overt gains, she had also obtained quite a few implicit benefits.

Upon finding that uncrushed blueprint and unlocking the [Another Spiritual Ability Prototype] task, she received a 0.2% Exploration Degree. Along with the downfall of Marske Laboratory, her contribution to the destruction of the Truth Society also jumped from 11.45% to 22.61%, nearly doubling. This showed how important the laboratory was to the Truth Society.

However, these improvements were still just numbers for now, and turning them into actual benefits would require some more time.

At this stage, to grind more Experience, aside from having Black Fu continuously produce cards, she could only rely on the main task.

Bai Fu had already figured out what to do after leaving Marske Laboratory.

First thing to do was to lift the restrictions on recruiting for Silent Court and gather more Players to rebuild the Goli Desert. Next, she'd proceed to the Old Republic and Genetic Primordial to complete the main task's branches.

What she was hesitant about was whether to go to the Old Republic first or Genetic Primordial, considering the distances from Goli Desert to these two powers were not much different.

"Given Platt's tasks, the Old Republic doesn't seem like a good bunch either, but I have no grudges with them, so I will find trouble with Genetic Primordial first, and then..."

"Wait!"

Bai Fu was deep in thought when Beixim's shout interrupted her, she looked up to see Beixim glaring at her, fuming.

"Don't you find this conversation very abrupt?"

Su Li frowned slightly, "What do you mean?"

Beixim said, "Is it possible this was all an act, that Bai Fu has secretly defected to the Truth Society, and then the Truth Society deliberately helped her clear the suspicions in this manner so she could infiltrate us? Of course, I'm just raising a possibility, it might not be true. It could also be a ploy by the Truth Society to make us think this way, aiming to sow discord among us. Regardless of the truth, for safety's sake, I think we need to conduct an investigation on Bai Fu."

If the first half of Beixim's statement sounded a bit irrational, the second half brought some people to a neutral position, those from the Human Alliance were now thinking this way. They didn't suspect that Bai Fu was colluding with the Truth Society, they simply wanted to know exactly who Bai Fu was.

With Beixim drawing the fire, they didn't have to do anything, just feign neutrality.

At the scene, Su Li got angry, "Suspect Bai Fu? Beixim, I suspect there's something wrong with you, so should I investigate you too?"

Beixim snorted coldly, "If I remember correctly, you're no longer with the Railroad Guild's intelligence department, are you?"

"That's none of your business whether I am or not if you want to create trouble, then don't blame me for not being nice. I'm really not afraid of what you have to say!" Su Li promptly showed her fists.

At this moment, Bai Fu patted her on the shoulder, signaling her not to be impulsive.

In fact, Bai Fu had noticed from the first meeting that Beixim's attitude toward her was not very friendly, with his Affinity being negative, albeit not by much, she seriously suspected that Beixim's targeting of her had another purpose than just being impulsive and disliking her.

"I must make one thing clear," Bai Fu said, stepping in front of the furious Su Li.

"I never intended to cooperate with the Old Republic, so whether or not I'm associated with the Truth Society, it won't affect you. Of course, you could use your conflict with the Truth Society as an excuse to forcibly scrutinize me, but if that's the case..."

She paused, then suddenly raised her right hand.

Dark Burning!

Boom!

Three consecutive black Spiritual Ability Light Beams shot out from her palm, blasting the nearby wall to pieces, even the specially blast-proofed laboratory ceiling cracked open, as if it would collapse at any moment.

"I'd like to see whether your body is tougher, or my power is," Bai Fu said.

Beixim's body stiffened.

He could feel that if those three blasts had hit him, he would have definitely suffered severe injuries.

"You... you've broken through that barrier?"

Beixim's voice trembled, and his words sent shivers through everyone, including Su Li. Damn, Bai Fu had unlocked an Advanced Profession!

Now, everyone's attitude towards Bai Fu would have to change. A superpower user who had unlocked an Advanced Profession would certainly receive attention from all forces!

The people of the Old Republic felt as if on the verge of a great threat, fearing that Bai Fu would attack recklessly. Although they had Advanced superpower users on their side, whether they could withstand Bai Fu was another matter. Even if they managed to defend against her this time, could they prevent her next move?

If an Advanced superpower user was determined to target a force, a series of assassinations could leave them in panic and turmoil.

Damn it, Beixim, the idiot, why did he have to go and provoke Bai Fu for no reason? That's just mindlessly stupid.

Seeing that the people of the Old Republic were no longer speaking nonsense, Bai Fu retracted her hand with satisfaction. Power was the ultimate language. Had she not unlocked an Advanced Profession, this farce might have continued.

But Beixim's reckless actions had made up her mind. The Old Republic would be her next target. She had to figure out the relationship between the Old Republic and the infectious disease of the Holy Spirit Sect, and by the way, get her hands on the list of the Spiritual Ability Spread Committee kept by the Old Republic.

"I've almost dealt with things here, and I still have to go back and explain the situation to those Undying People. I'll come back and thank you when I have time," Bai Fu said to Su Li, before she left in a hurry to inform Player Black Fu that nothing was sent. If they delayed any longer, who knew what havoc the players might wreak beyond the Cyber Funeral.

Su Li knew the situation was a bit awkward, so she did not insist on keeping Bai Fu.

As soon as Bai Fu left, everyone sprang into action. They each contacted their higher-ups with the same message—

Investigate, they must find a way to clarify Bai Fu's real identity, and if there weren't enough special agents, then let the Undying People investigate as well!

Thus, following the Truth Society, the Railroad Guild, the Old Republic, and the Human Alliance players also joined the army of investigators into Bai Fu's identity.

[The ultimate puzzle: who exactly is Bai Fu?]

[Alien? Native prodigy? Or a hidden master?]

The heat of this topic was soaring.

Among all those contacting their superiors, only Beixim was somewhat special.

"I originally wanted to investigate if her disappearance was related to Platt, but I underestimated her power. She's actually an Advanced superpower user—this plan has completely fallen through. She's quite unsatisfied with us now; it looks like we'll have to find another way."

"Let the Undying People do the investigation."

"Yes, I understand."

Beixim finished the conversation with his superior. He was now feeling a headache. If the secrets Platt held were known by Bai Fu, it would be a huge blow to the Old Republic. He could only pray that Platt's disappearance had nothing to do with Bai Fu.
