When You Become an NPC That Might Die Any Moment in the Novice Village

In the livestream room, Digging Girl excitedly raised her right hand.

"I originally thought that the 1.5 version would start with the final battle, but the Secret Tower hid so well, letting them survive another month. But this is the limit, Fufu takes action, no matter what demons or monsters, all will perish!"

Her words garnered the agreement of countless Fu Sect players.

It was already proven, Fufu was invincible!

Wasn't the Truth Society formidable on Ancestral Origin Star?

Still, they were solo cleared by Fufu.

Now, the deterrence of the Secret Tower in the Initial Gate Star System was probably about the same as the Truth Society on the Ancestral Origin Star, and this time, Fufu had a big group of people acting together, so victory was assured.

But many players felt that Digging Girl was being too confident.

Bai Fu indeed had an impressive background, but after all, she wasn't the sole main character, who could say for sure that she would have the last laugh, especially since main characters could die in some games.

While Digging Girl was praising Bai Fu, Bai Fu suddenly appeared in the livestream camera. She was there to give a pre-battle pep talk.

Originally, it wasn't necessary, but the livestream room was so heated, not showing her face would be a waste of this heat – not to mention the official intention behind making her the protagonist of the second half of the new promo video.

Bai Fu did not say any sensational words. Forced sentiment was not advisable. It was better to shout something like "For everything that breathes, there is no retreat in battle, stand across the vast space" – a rather chūnibyō yet passionate line.

This move was tremendously effective.

Many players played games just for the chūnibyō fantasy, and Bai Fu's move perfectly hit the soft spot in their hearts.

They were fired up.

Their fighting spirit was completely ignited.

Especially when the task alert for the final encirclement battle against the Secret Tower rang out, all players near Digging Girl who heard Bai Fu's chūnibyō lines gripped their weapons tightly.

"Charge, screw the Secret Tower!"

"For the Initial Gate, fight for all that is beautiful!"

"Fufu, I support you wholeheartedly!"

In the fleet, nearly two million players burst forth with awe-inspiring fighting spirit, leaving the other NPCs startled.

What's going on?

Never mind, regardless of why these Undying People were excited, now was not the time to be distracted.

"Target spotted."

"Continue monitoring, wait for the target to enter the ambush point."

"Roger!"

Inside the command flagship of the United Fleet, high-ranking commanders from four civilizations were tensely staring at the giant screen ahead.

They had waited too long for this moment, and thinking that they could settle the score with the Secret Tower soon felt somewhat surreal.

This time they really owed a lot to Bai Fu. If it hadn't been for Bai Fu arousing the Secret Tower too much, the situation wouldn't be so favorable for them. Oh right, the important piece of information that the Secret Tower traitor was actually a mole was also secretly disclosed to them by Bai Fu, considering there might be spies within the fleet, Bai Fu deliberately kept it low-profile.

If they really could eliminate the Secret Tower this time, Bai Fu deserved major credit!

"Are all units ready?"

"Ready!"

"Good, execute the plan!"

Watching the Secret Tower's fleet finally enter the encirclement, a top-level command was issued from the flagship. Instantly, tens of thousands of spaceships in the fleet moved, splitting into multiple groups, rushing towards the Secret Tower's fleet from all directions, trailed by arcs of light left by the spaceship engines.

In just a matter of seconds, the two fleets collided.

Fire!

The well-prepared United Fleet mercilessly poured cannon fire into the Secret Tower's fleet.

With tens of thousands of warships launching an attack simultaneously, the scene was utterly stunning. Almost in the blink of an eye, the deep space was filled with intertwining beams of various colors of lasers, occasionally seeing space torpedoes and kinetic shells, and the nuclear warheads bursting into a string of dazzling sparks in deep space.

"Holy shit, incredible!"

On the ships, inside the livestream room, all the players watching this scene exclaimed.

Some players had personally manned ships and participated in space ship fire exchanges, but a fleet battle of this scale was a first for all players today.

"This firepower, this output, even Catastrophe Level wouldn't dare to take it head-on, right? But Catastrophe Level wouldn't foolishly stand there and take the hits. With the strength of a Star System Level civilization's war mothership, it can't contain a Catastrophe Level; instead, the Catastrophe Level would turn around and blow it up."

Bai Fu squinted her eyes.

Everything was ready, what would the Secret Tower's response be?

"Enemy attack, enemy attack, quickly notify the Housekeeper!"

Inside the Secret Tower's command ship, the commander's face sweated profusely with urgency.

They were ordered to set off the Flood Disaster to divert the attention of the Alliance, and unexpectedly, they were attacked en route by a massive assault from the enemy. A slight misstep, and today they might have all perished here.

Soon, the Housekeeper of the Secret Tower received intelligence.

"Begin, let's set off."

He turned to glance at the Secret Tower Master beside him.

It had been many years since he had fought alongside the Secret Tower Master. The last time he wasn't the Housekeeper, and the Secret Tower Master wasn't the Secret Tower Master.

Last time, they had achieved a great victory in their mission—what about this time?

He didn't know, he only knew that many people would die this time.

Kill!

In an instant, the people from the Secret Tower who had been lying in ambush rushed toward the headquarters of the Blessing Sect like ferocious wolves.

The high-ranking combat powers of the Blessing Sect, such as the Pope, Elon, and Suixi, had all gone along with the United Fleet to besiege the Secret Tower. Those left at the headquarters, mere cats and dogs, were no match for the Secret Tower.

Even if the Pope and others had stayed at the headquarters, they wouldn't be a match for the Housekeeper and the Secret Tower Master, but they did have other cards up their sleeves.

"Kill them all, leave no survivors!"

Wherever the Secret Tower People went, blood flowed and limbs were scattered.

Within a few short minutes, the headquarters of the Blessing Sect was savaged, and following that, the Secret Tower People searched and found the Fake True Spirit Pillar that Elon and Suixi had recently made specifically to test Bai Fu.

"Is this the True Spirit Pillar?"

The Secret Tower Master and the Housekeeper paused in their breaths.

They had never touched the real True Spirit Pillar, to be precise, they had never seen it with their own eyes—they had only seen it in videos, various documents, and research materials before; thus, they couldn't tell the genuine from the fake right away.

From the appearance, there was no difference between this Fake·True Spirit Pillar and the Real·True Spirit Pillar.

In terms of sensing power, this Fake·True Spirit Pillar even possessed characteristics of the Real·True Spirit Pillar, and it felt much more authentic than the counterfeit they had made.

With so much evidence in front of them, the Secret Tower Master and the Housekeeper were no longer skeptical.

It was done.

Ha ha, they had finally obtained the True Spirit Pillar they had longed for!

"Now, it's time to send Bai Fu to her end!"

Flames rolled in the eyes of the Secret Tower Master.

"Housekeeper, you escort the True Spirit Pillar back to headquarters, I will personally see Bai Fu off!"

The Housekeeper didn't attempt to take this opportunity from the Secret Tower Master.

He wasn't worried about the Secret Tower Master encountering any trouble either, as the Dark Domain Insect Clan Empress would move with him. Two Catastrophe Level joined by a mass of S-Level and S+ Level suddenly bursting from behind to attack an S+ Level Bai Fu, could they lose?

...

At the same time, United Fleet.

"What?"

The Pope of Blessing Sect, Elon, and Suixi, after receiving news of the ambush on the Blessing Sect, all widened their eyes.

The Secret Tower Master and the Housekeeper hadn't appeared on this battlefield but had run to attack their Blessing Sect headquarters instead—what were they scheming?

They were both shocked and furious.

The reactions of the others in the fleet weren't any better than theirs.

No one could figure out what the Secret Tower was thinking.

But they wouldn't have to think about this much longer, because the Secret Tower suddenly made their move.

From a position towards the rear of the fleet, suddenly, the Secret Tower Master and the Dark Domain Insect Clan Empress burst forth with a large group of people.

"Ha ha, Bai Fu, today is the day you die!"

The Secret Tower Master burst into laughter, but his laughter soon ceased.

Dead silence.

Absolute stillness.

Large beads of sweat slid from his forehead.

He looked around, and what he saw was the Catastrophe Level of the Tidal Civilization, the Catastrophe Level of the Heavenly Eye Alliance, the Catastrophe Level mercenary invited by the Caster Civilization, Bai Fu, Cecilia, and many other unfamiliar faces.

These people were forming a circle around him, standing, sitting, laughing, or angry, but all eyes were focused on him without exception.

"Welcome."

Bai Fu greeted him with a smile.
