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

The two fully exchanged opinions and formally reached a preliminary cooperative relationship.

"You have completed the main task 'Deep Sea Undercurrent' and have been awarded 5 million Experience Value. The Nellis Camp Reputation and Affinity systems are now unlocked."

Two panels unfolded in front of Bai Fu simultaneously.

Although she had just joined the Nellis Camp, Bai Fu's Camp Reputation had already soared to 600 points, which was quite a high figure.

On one hand, it was because she was already a celebrity in the Edge World; on the other hand, it was because the impression she left on Nellis and others during her journey to the Dark Domain was too profound.

"I'm now going to the Leader Mansion. Since the Leader has invited you, let's go together," Nellis issued the invitation.

Bai Fu was more than happy to accept.

Departing from Costari, it took only two and a half days for their spaceship to arrive at Tem Civilization's capital star, Tem Star.

Tem Star was a fully transformed artificial mechanical planet.

Numerous massive ring worlds floated in low-earth orbit and high orbit, and countless gravity lift rails made of special materials connected these ring worlds to each other and to the planet's surface.

According to the Tem Star tourism guide, in wartime, the entire Tem Star could swiftly transform into a battleship form, with offensive capabilities comparable to a Dominator, making it one of the most famous slaughter machines in the Edge World.

"If we ever get into a fight with the Tem Civilization Leader, we must stay as far away from Tem Star as possible. With such a mechanical monster, even if I ascend to Dominator status, it would take more than a moment to handle."

Bai Fu silently took note of this piece of information.

Under Nellis's guidance, she arrived at the Leader Mansion.

Knowing that they were coming, reporters had already surrounded the outside of the Leader Mansion early on.

Witnessed by professional filming robots and veteran media personnel, Bai Fu's and the Tem Civilization Leader's first meeting took place.

Click, click, click...

A flurry of photos emerged.

At that moment, aside from Bai Fu, no one knew how many people would look back at these seemingly harmonious photos in the future for interpretation.

"I've long heard of your great reputation, Saintess Bai Fu, hahaha!"

The Leader's laughter was hearty.

He was a tall figure, over three meters high, with a standard square face that could be considered handsome even among mechanical beings.

This handsomeness meant that most people, upon seeing him for the first time, even if they didn't like him, wouldn't hate him either.

Bai Fu stepped forward, smiling and greeting the Leader, "Leader, you're too kind. I am no saintess; I am just an ordinary mercenary."

"Oh, Saintess Bai Fu, you are too modest. Just with what you've done in the Initial Gate Star System Group, if you can't be called a saintess, then the standard for a saintess is way too high."

The two entered what could only be described as a mutual admiration mode.

One could only say that experience comes with age, and even though Bai Fu's acting skills were extraordinary, she was clearly at a disadvantage against the Leader when it came to flattery.

However, the focus of this meeting wasn't this, so it didn't matter if she 'lost'.

She casually used her Spiritual Vision Skill on the Leader, and the feedback data surprised her.

[Primary Profession Level 171, wow, that's a Dominator, a whole 31 levels higher than me!]

[The level difference is too great; special attributes not visible, no idea how much higher his attributes are compared to mine]

[Talent... there it is, Strong Luck!]

Bai Fu realized she had still underestimated this old Leader.

He really knew how to conceal! With his power, you would be hard-pressed to find many Superpower Users more powerful than him in the entire Tem Civilization, yet he had always hidden himself. His ambitions were probably not as simple as just stabilizing the Leader's position.

Did he want to emulate the Rebirth Empire model and become an unchallenged Emperor of Tem Civilization, or was there a bigger scheme?

Regardless, having figured out the Leader's true power and his role in the game, Bai Fu felt much more at ease.

Although she was far from matching the Leader now, between the 2.0 and 3.0 versions there were at least several years, or perhaps more than a decade, which would give her plenty of time to grow stronger than the Leader.

After lavishing praise on each other for a long time, they finally shifted the conversation to N2 and the Glorious Army.

The Leader once again publicly castigated the Glorious Army in front of the reporters, stating that he would continue to intensify efforts to strike against the Glorious Army, and would ensure that the blood-stained Glorious Army paid for their deeds in blood.

His words were filled with vigor, but in reality, few took him seriously.

Who would, considering that after all his previous threats, he had been unable to cause any substantial damage to the Glorious Army?

However, this time the situation was slightly different.

Because after he finished speaking, Bai Fu suddenly stood out.

"Speaking of the Glorious Army..." Bai Fu clenched her teeth and showed an expression of loathing and hatred, "Back in my hometown, there was an organization very similar to the Glorious Army called the Truth Society. They too paraded under a beautiful banner, but in reality, they committed many acts that harmed civilians. So, although I've never lived in Tem Civilization before, I can very much understand everyone in Tem Civilization. Everyone is striving to live, only to die suddenly due to a disaster. The Glorious Army... they're despicable!"

She waved her fist forcefully at the camera, then turned around and looked sternly at the Leader.

"Leader, in the matter of striking the Glorious Army, whatever you need, I am willing to be of assistance without charge!"

What?

In an instant, all the reporters present exchanged puzzled glances.
