When You Become an NPC That Might Die Any Moment in the Novice Village-Chapter 275 - 115 Identity Revealed, Bai Fu is Actually the Ghost Night Dominator! 【5k】_3
"[It feels a bit exaggerated, the first female NPC I encountered in the Newbie Village turned out to be the legendary Demon God]"
"[Dude, have you ever heard of Offline City and the Weakness Warrior, and that woman who makes people pay seventy thousand?]"
"[@Digging Girl, what do you think?]"
Digging Girl indicated that she had no opinion since this wasn't something she had discovered herself and remained silent in response; a single wrong word could strip her of her title as someone whose predictions about Bai Fu's storyline had never been wrong.
"..."
In any case, Bai Fu was silent after seeing it too.
Alright, alright, converting exports to domestic sales, right?
Most of those superpower judgments she spun out were just lies to deceive the players, like the Dual Soul, gentle big sister image, nicknames, and her being betrayed.
She never imagined that these made-up pieces would match one of the countless legends on the Newbie Planets, creating a humorous situation comparable to a monkey randomly typing out a text that exactly matches a short story.
In the long run, this definitely wasn't a bad thing; the more the players speculated about her identity, thinking she was more powerful and had a deeper background, the more beneficial it was for her.
In the short term, though, it did have some drawbacks; NPCs from other Newbie Planets, even if all believed she was the Ghost Night Dominator, wouldn't affect her, but it was different with the NPCs from Ancestral Origin Star.
If the NPCs who received the message believed it and had thoughts like "Ancestral Origin Star shouldn't allow such an awesome person to exist," it would definitely cause her some trouble.
"It looks like I need to enhance my power before trouble arrives."
Bai Fu decided not to return to Goli Desert for the time being. She had only instructed the players to bring Carl's body, which they had carried along back to Goli Desert, and informed Old Nison and Gao Yuan to recruit more players recently. If it was difficult for players to come on their own, they should send vehicles to fetch them, aiming to increase the player count to four or five thousand.
This strategy would not only speed up the reconstruction of Goli Desert, helping her complete the main task sooner but also greatly improve the security capabilities of Shelter 11.
After arranging those matters, she first took the Obsidian Fragment from Platt into her possession and then began to get involved in the task she had previously assigned to the players.
During the days she was away, the players had actually gathered some useful information.
As she had imagined, the Old Republic did indeed possess the potions capable of curing the infectious disease at Tongshan Camp, but they intentionally did not sell these potions to the camp.
To understand their real reason for not selling, some players tried tracking the Old Republic researchers who produced the "Enhancement Potion." Due to the Old Republic's stringent security, they failed to find conclusive evidence but they still found out that those researchers had been secretly communicating with the intelligence department of the Old Republic, leading them to conclude that the entire infectious disease and medication scenario at Tongshan Camp was a conspiracy by the Old Republic.
"The Old Republic is likely using them as guinea pigs!"
"Our next plan is to steal the medicine, directly seize the complete version of the Enhancement Potion, cure the sick in the camp first, and then... then we'll kidnap those researchers. We don't believe we can't extract the information from them!"
That, well, is professionalism!
Bai Fu nodded in approval; the players' levels were increasing and their abilities were gradually showing. It seemed that she didn't need to intervene too much in this task; she just had to wait for the players to fully investigate, and she would reap the benefits.
"Do you guys have any leads on the investigation of the Spiritual Ability Spread Committee?"
Follow Me Fu replied, "We investigated the past of the Old Republic which emerged from the pre-war superpower, the Orian Republic, after the Great Battle and the Great Catastrophe. Some surviving politicians and military industrialists from the Orian Republic jointly established the Old Republic. Initially, the Old Republic was the most powerful force on Ancestral Origin Star after the Catastrophe. However, they encountered an accident while researching mutant technology which led to the Mutant Uprising. The Old Republic was heavily hit, and some people who harbored hatred towards mutants broke away and formed the Human Alliance."
"From the development history of the Old Republic, it indeed seems very likely that they possess first-hand data from the Spiritual Ability Spread Committee. Thus, we also investigated the backgrounds of the leaders of the Old Republic and we found that most of their top-secret intelligence was managed by the intelligence department's data science division. The truth about the Mutant Uprising was leaked from this division, so we believe that data about the Spiritual Ability Spread Committee might also be in the data science division, and currently, the person in charge of managing this division is Deputy Minister Beixim."
Oh, our old friend!
After listening to Follow Me Fu, Bai Fu noticed that the introduction and reward details of the hidden main task [Delusional Saviors] branch 1 [Old Hatred] had become more detailed.
[Task Introduction: It is said that the secrets of the Old Republic are stored in the data science division of the intelligence department. Currently, Beixim is in charge of managing the data science division, try to find the list of the Spiritual Ability Spread Committee from Beixim.]
[Reward: 200,000 Experience Value, Exploration Degree, Memory Fragment]
This task reward made Bai Fu raise an eyebrow.
200,000 Experience?
That's a bit low for her now.
But the key point of this task's reward seems not to be the experience but rather the following exploration degree and Memory Fragment.
The exploration degree is self-explanatory; she had already obtained 2.2% of the Ancestral Origin Star storyline exploration degree through tasks and exploration. As for the Memory Fragment, it wasn't the first time she had seen this thing.
The task Xia Shi posted to explore the Spiritual Ability Source also included Memory Fragment as one of the rewards.
"Is the Memory Fragment reward always linked to tasks related to exploring past events?"
Bai Fu couldn't help but make some associations.
Perhaps these so-called Memory Fragments are actually copies dropped by the game, and obtaining a Memory Fragment would allow her to challenge those stories that happened in the past.
If this really was the case, then she had just found another source of earning Experience!
