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

What did Bai Fu just say?

She is willing to help fight the Honorable Force without taking a single penny!

Damn.

Although all of Bai Fu's subordinates are Undying People, the cost required to fight the Honorable Force would definitely be enormous.

There's no need to pay compensation, but salaries, spaceship maintenance fees, and the investment in weapons and equipment aren't small amounts.

Even if the Leader later compensates Bai Fu to save face and she goes to fight with the Honorable Force, it would surely severely hinder the development of the Dark Moon Tide Company. If the Honorable Force is driven into desperation and fights Dark Moon Tide without ceasing, the situation would be even worse.

Nevertheless, Bai Fu still stepped forward.

A Dark Domain Person, traveling thousands of miles to the Tem Civilization for charity, what kind of spirit is that? Is this the true value of Saintess Bai Fu of the Initial Gate?

Take photos, quickly take photos, make Bai Fu look as imposing as possible, it would be best to capture a composition where the sunlight "bursts" behind her head.

Nellis and the Leader's reactions were no better than those of the reporters.

This works?

Bai Fu dared to say such things at this occasion, she must not be putting on a show, after all, she staked the reputation she had amassed over the past few years and the short-term development of Dark Moon Tide as the bet. Compared to the gains from putting on a show, the stakes are too high and too easily seen through.

Truly worthy of being Bai Fu.

Nellis couldn't help but sigh internally.

He quickly weighed the pros and cons in his heart.

Bai Fu's actions could lead to a situation where he needed Bai Fu's help while she was battling the Honorable Force, but on the other hand, Bai Fu's active role could bring him a lot of reputation and attention, giving him a public opinion advantage when vying for the Leader position.

The pros outweigh the cons.

No, to be precise, there are no downsides for him unless Bai Fu suddenly goes mad, pulling enemies onto him. Otherwise, from the moment Bai Fu agreed to cooperate with him, it has been all beneficial.

Nellis slightly smiled, saying nothing more; now was not the time for him to steal the spotlight.

It was different for the Leader, what Bai Fu said was directed at him.

He quickly put on a deeply touched expression, praising Bai Fu for her righteousness and stating that if there was indeed a need, the Tem Civilization would definitely not mistreat a hero.

The meeting ended amidst laughter and cheerful voices.

Upon returning to the official residence, the Leader's face darkened.

Bai Fu's words somewhat cornered him; the Honorable Force was a critical chess piece in his hand, letting Bai Fu fight the Honorable Force, he would have to be crazy to do such a thing.

Ignore it.

Although ignoring Bai Fu would lead to slander, hasn't he been criticized over the years?

When he "eliminates" the Honorable Force, getting rid of those who incited war, his reputation will naturally improve...

"Hm, wait."

The Leader suddenly thought of a plan.

He could completely cooperate with Bai Fu, of course not letting Bai Fu actually confront the Honorable Force, but under the guise of confronting them, intentionally create opportunities for Bai Fu to conflict with other factions of the Tem Civilization.

Afterward, he just needs to claim he received false intelligence, deceived by the Honorable Force, and he could easily fool Bai Fu, the simple and sweet girl.

Er.

Saying Bai Fu is simple and sweet might be an exaggeration, she is not naive, she is just straightforward and sticks stubbornly to her perceived sense of justice, not understanding flexibility.

If such a person were an enemy, that would be very dangerous, for specific scenarios refer to what happened to the Secret Tower.

But now Bai Fu doesn't even know he is the mastermind behind the scenes, so he has nothing to fear, distancing himself deliberately would just raise Bai Fu's suspicions. It's better to leverage his position to use Bai Fu to his advantage as much as possible.

"Let's have a meeting to discuss the proposal Bai Fu just made."

The Leader tapped his finger lightly on the table, his face bearing a self-assured smile entirely different from the one he showed to the media.

...

After bidding farewell to the Leader, Bai Fu left Tem Star immediately.

She didn't rush back to Ulysses but first visited a nearby planet with player activity, picked a few players highly reputable within the player community, strong and not yet aligned with any camp, and assigned them undercover tasks, also promising them a big opportunity to go to Rebirth Empire if they did a good job.

Those players immediately agreed.

[We guarantee to complete the task!]

During this process, Bai Fu was cautiously mindful; she did not make an appearance herself, but had An Ya contact those players instead, so in case it was exposed later, she could claim that An Ya acted without authorization.

"Alright, after being busy for so long, I can finally rest properly for a while."

Bai Fu stretched lazily.

Next, she just had to quietly develop, waiting to intervene after the Tem Civilization started fighting.

Bai Fu walked over to Nellis, preparing to bid farewell.

Nellis didn't hold her back, but asked if there was anything Bai Fu needed, intending to reciprocate the great gift she had given him.

"Reciprocate? I don't want anything for now, but... if possible, can you find two Superpower Users for me, rated no lower than A-grade in Superpower, any Superpower will do, I have some questions to ask them."

After stating her request, Bai Fu, along with her people, returned to Ulysses.

For the next couple of months, she spent time viewing how the Tem Civilization's media praised her, seldom going out, only meeting with Andras once during the site selection for the second base.

Two months later.

Nellis suddenly sent a message, saying he had found two A-grade Superpower Users with decent strength.

"I've already sent people to bring them to Ulysses Star."

Bai Fu sighed in relief.

After waiting for so long, she could finally complete the hidden task associated with the Superpower Evolution Tree Diagram, figuring out what exactly is the Superpower Garden linkage.

"Thank you."

Bai Fu personally went to meet the two A-grade Superpower Users to prevent any mishaps on the road.

Several days later, she successfully incorporated the new Superpower.

[You have completed the hidden task ［Superpower Evolution Tree (Part 1)］, received a reward of 30 million Experience points, random attribute blessing, Superpower Garden linkage +10]

A crisp, pleasant notification sound rang out.
