When You Become an NPC That Might Die Any Moment in the Novice Village-Chapter 115 - 56 Bai Fu’s mouth, deceiving ghost [Two in One]_2

Damn, she completely fooled us!

The myriad thoughts in the hearts of Xu Hong and the others at that moment could only be summed up in one phrase—

"Awesome!"

Soon after, Lu Yuelin and his group also arrived at the scene. After understanding the situation, their reactions weren't much better than Xu Hong's.

"You did beautifully. When we get back, I will immediately give you the disk containing the advanced spiritual ability knowledge as agreed," Lu Yuelin's tone was filled with emotion.

Bai Fu said, "Pleasure working with you."

While others dealt with the mutant's corpses, the group of players nearby tried to run over to watch, but the people around didn't indulge them and directly set up a cordon, forcing them to just wave at Bai Fu from a distance, hoping to catch her attention. If they were lucky, they could even receive a task.

But today they were only to be disappointed. Bai Fu didn't stay long at the scene and soon drove away in the stolen vehicle, following everyone back to Lynn.

Li Cheng had said that he had called for more than six people this time. Staying here any longer, who knows when the others Li Cheng called would show up.

Before leaving, Bai Fu still leaned out of the window and waved at the players with a smile. These players were quite useful, and it was necessary to leave a good impression on them.

"Fufu is smiling at me, hehe."

"Heh, your head, stop being so narcissistic. Ah, it's such a pity this time. If I had a gun, I could have scored a lot more experience."

"This bit of experience is nothing. Tasks, that's what's important."

"You guys think, what profession is Bai Fu? Her combat power is too fierce. It would be great if I could transfer to her profession."

"Let's go, hurry to Lynn. Let's unlock advanced professions first."

The group of players noisily squeezed back into the car.

...

On the way back to Lynn, after struggling for a long time, Xia Shi finally couldn't hold back and asked, "There's something I don't know if I should ask."

Bai Fu said casually, "Go ahead."

Xia Shi said, "Why was there such a big difference in power between what you showed at the Abandoned Cooling Factory and just now?"

"Do you suspect I was hiding my true power?" Bai Fu slowly turned her head away.

Xia Shi didn't reply, but her expression clearly showed she thought so. If it was an awakening of power, the fluctuations wouldn't be so great.

Bai Fu nodded, "Is there a listening device in the car?"

Xia Shi's black pupils revealed sincerity, "No."

"That's good."

Now I have to start making up stories!

As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Fu closed the car window, turning the whole car into an enclosed space.

No one spoke, and for a while, only the ticking sound of the hanging ornaments swaying could be heard inside the car.

Xia Shi's heart suddenly tightened. Based on her experience, when things suddenly turned out like this, it usually meant that Bai Fu was going to make a move on her.

But it shouldn't have come to that, Bai Fu didn't seem like that kind of person. And even if she really did want to make a move, it wouldn't be here, not with the vehicles of the others nearby, unless Bai Fu was confident she could take everyone out.

Xia Shi stealthily turned her head to try and catch a glimpse of Bai Fu's expression, but unexpectedly, Bai Fu was staring straight at her at that moment.

"!"

She quickly straightened her body, like a student who was caught daydreaming in class when suddenly realizing the teacher was just outside the window.

"Actually..." After brewing for a while, Bai Fu suddenly smiled and shook her head, "I didn't mean to deceive you intentionally. It's just that before today, I didn't know if you were in cahoots with Li Cheng or not."

Big secret!

Xia Shi turned her head again, but this time she saw Bai Fu staring ahead through the car window at the vast prairie dotted with starlight, her eyes deep as if hiding an entire galaxy of stars.

"You don't see the most complete version of me now."

Xia Shi: "What?"

"I and An Ya come from a place too distant for you to imagine. That place is called the Next World, and we were members of a mysterious organization there. Just like what you're facing now, our organization also had a traitor who, for some minor benefits, forgot all past convictions and pushed the things we had protected most of our lives into an abyss."

Bai Fu spoke slowly. Although she repeatedly said "we," her tone was so calm that it seemed like she wasn't talking about her own experiences.

A traitor like Li Cheng?

Thinking about how she felt when she learned Li Cheng was a traitor, and considering that Li Cheng had been caught while Bai Fu's organization was likely utterly destroyed, Xia Shi suddenly understood why Bai Fu seemed so calm.

Because a bullet had pierced her heart, leaving a wound that wouldn't heal for a long time!

"After that catastrophe, I escaped here with An Ya. We have been looking for a way to return and a way to recover our power. You see my power seems to keep strengthening, not because we concealed our abilities or because I awakened twice, but because my injuries are slowly healing. I've been chasing the version of myself from the past."

Bai Fu stepped on the accelerator, and the car roared, speeding towards the distant horizon as if racing an invisible opponent.

Xia Shi was moved, "Is there anything I can do to help you? You are my lifesaver, and I want to repay this debt."

Bai Fu shook her head, "No need, I just said it, that place is very distant, too distant for you to imagine."

Xia Shi was incredulous. "The Genetic Primordial is one of the five major forces, though I can't command the Genetic Primordial's Intelligence Bureau, helping you investigate that enemy and finding their weaknesses wouldn't be difficult."

Bai Fu kept driving without speaking.

Suddenly, something dawned on Xia Shi. Her right hand and gaze moved upward, finally resting on the vast starry sky: "Does this mean... you come from there?"

Her voice trembled slightly, and so did her hand.

It was unbelievable yet somewhat plausible. Given Bai Fu's power, she couldn't possibly be an insignificant nobody, but despite the investigations carried out in secrecy and even seeking headquarters' assistance, no useful information had surfaced.

If Bai Fu was an alien, then her murky identity and rapidly increasing power were explained!

"How you understand it is up to you, but can you keep a secret for me, Miss Xia Shi?"

Her calm voice arose, and Xia Shi nodded subconsciously, then after a moment of silence, she realized a problem.

"Why say so much? You could have easily given an excuse to brush me off. Aren't you afraid I'll expose your secret?"

Is it possible that I just made this up?

Bai Fu barely held back a laugh.

Going through all this trouble to fabricate a story was just to increase Xia Shi's affinity; the things Li Cheng said when he yelled at Xia Shi made her realize that Xia Shi's linked task must involve a huge reward, perhaps even one as significant as bringing down the Truth Society.

By leaving Xia Shi with a very reliable and utterly trustworthy impression beforehand, she could involve herself earlier in the task and gain more rewards.

Of course, she wasn't worried about Xia Shi spilling the beans. On one hand, Xia Shi's affinity for her was at 62 points; on the other hand, she had never explicitly told Xia Shi that she came from the starry sky. Even if Xia Shi blabbed everywhere, she could just say Xia Shi was talking nonsense.

"I won't lose trust in everyone just because I was betrayed once. We've been through two life-and-death situations together, and at least for now, you seem trustworthy. Moreover, although you can't help me now, I might need your help in the future."

"Huh?"

"I can see things ordinary people can't. Your future may be far greater than you imagine."

Xia Shi hesitated.

Her greatest dream was to bring down the Truth Society in her lifetime. What could a greater future look like?

She couldn't imagine it.

However, at that moment, she remembered a document she had accidentally seen once.

"I don't know how to help you recover your power, but if it's about leaving this place, I have a clue. Before I joined the Intelligence Bureau, I found a file labeled 001 in my father's lab. According to that file, the Ancestral Origin Star didn't have Spiritual Energy initially. All changes started twenty years before the war, and the file speculated that Spiritual Energy was brought by extraterrestrial life. If there really were such an alien, there must be a way to leave this place."

[You have triggered the plot task [Spiritual Ability Source]]

The game notification rang, and Bai Fu was delighted.

Okay, okay, the task has come so soon?
