When You Become an NPC That Might Die Any Moment in the Novice Village
Chapter 979 - 347: Bai Fu, the Master of Sowing Discord [4k]_2
To be honest, Bai Fu just wanted to intimidate Apostle Four a little and incidentally create a more mysterious image for herself, but these words had an unexpected effect.
Buzz!
Apostle Four's body suddenly trembled.
In its wildest dreams, it never expected Bai Fu to reveal its biggest secret in a single sentence.
This secret, apart from itself, was only known by Apostle Three and the Supreme Divine Disciple; even the God of the Void Realm was unaware.
And now Apostle Three is dead, and it wouldn't go around divulging it, so... was it the Supreme Divine Disciple who leaked the information to the outside world?
Why? Why would the Supreme Divine Disciple do such a thing?
Was it intentional, or accidental?
Apostle Four's mind was spinning rapidly.
It kept thinking and could only come up with one answer—
The Supreme Divine Disciple wanted it to become the target of everyone, and then have it eliminated through murder by proxy!
It knew it, its cooperation with the Supreme Divine Disciple was actually mutual plotting, it just never expected the Supreme Divine Disciple to be so impatient to kick it out before conquering the explored universe.
Alright, really great!
The flames of anger grew inside Apostle Four, though it didn't show it directly.
"What is your relationship with the Supreme Divine Disciple?"
Huh?
Bai Fu paused for a moment.
This Apostle Four had such a jumping logic; how did she end up getting involved with the Supreme Divine Disciple?
"The relationship between me and the Supreme Divine Disciple is not important. What's important is your cooperation with the Supreme Divine Disciple. You're trying to use his power to solve the various issues caused by fusing True Spirit Marrow, right?"
Apostle Four sneered: "Oh, it doesn't matter, if I can't become the God of the Void Realm, he can forget using my power to become the Twelfth Apostle. Don't think I can't see through his ambition; I'm already prepared!"
Huh?
Bai Fu was stunned again because at this moment she received a notification indicating the completion of the task [The Secret between Apostle Four and the Supreme Divine Disciple], successfully gaining 50 billion experience and 5 Blank Skill Cards.
This task had required her to uncover the truth about the cooperation between Apostle Four and the Supreme Divine Disciple.
She had originally braced herself to spend a lot of time and effort on this task, but Apostle Four actually spoke out on his own!
Family, is this reasonable?
The hell, so the Supreme Divine Disciple's goal was to become the Twelfth Apostle, clearly intending to take her spot.
Are you the Twelfth Apostle?
I am the Twelfth Apostle!
While Bai Fu was caught in her frenzied thoughts, Apostle Four couldn't suppress his murderous intent anymore.
"I suppose you won't surrender quietly, so I will personally dismantle you and then read your memories!"
Terrifying pressure surged like waves.
Bai Fu glanced at Apostle Four.
Level 265, mastered Void Realm Particles, and comes with a BOSS aura specifically oppressing Spiritual Ability Prayer Masters... even if her real body was here, she couldn't win, not to mention now she was just remotely manifesting on a True Spirit Summon Matter.
Farewell!
Bai Fu turned and ran.
Her body transformed into the night, merging into the already hazy darkness.
While running, she contacted Shadow Fu.
Don't ruin it, Apostle Four's strength is beyond imagination; his level is only 4 lower than the Supreme Divine Disciple, his status panel is twice as complex, his power might even be stronger!
"I'll cover you, quickly escape!"
Though Shadow Fu could resurrect through the Heavenly Ark, avoiding death is still better, as it saves on recovery resources, right?
Shadow Fu didn't stand on ceremony with Bai Fu; she immediately used her assassin instincts, retreating into the surging spiritual energy vortex outside.
Due to the massive energy fluctuations from Apostle Four, the restrictions of [Suppress] and [Time-Space Freeze] had been broken.
The members of Apostle Holy City who regained their freedom promptly returned to their posts, operating various devices to assist Apostle Four in preventing Bai Fu and Shadow Fu from leaving.
In the process of pursuing Bai Fu, Apostle Four didn't forget to directly cut off the support for the Super Large Secret Technique [Artificial God].
The Supreme Divine Disciple pit him, how could he not retaliate?
Mere moments later.
The place of direct combat between Apostle Holy City and the three cosmic-level civilizations.
The fleet of the three cosmic-level civilizations had already lost more than half, half of the incoming Super Supremes had fallen, and the remaining people were contemplating the most dignified way to die when suddenly, the gigantic artificial deity before them vanished into thin air.
This sight left everyone on both sides utterly baffled.
"What, the Artificial God disappeared?"
The Supreme Divine Disciple, far away, doubted his ears.
Soon, he received a distress communication from Holy Land Star.
"Holy Land Star has been invaded? No wonder 'God' suddenly disappeared."
The Supreme Divine Disciple never imagined Apostle Four proactively severed the connection; he thought the Holy Land Star was simply under severe attack.
"Have that bunch from the Ten Saints Association go over and assist, don't let the invaders escape; I want to understand how they bypassed the spiritual energy defenses I set up!"
The Supreme Divine Disciple's order was transmitted via superluminal communication equipment to the Saints and others huddled idly at the temporary base.
"Damn it, when there's good stuff, we're not included, and for this drudgery, we're called up; truly never-ending."
The Saints cursed incessantly, but still obediently accepted the task.
He had fully boarded Apostle Holy City's ship now; what choice did he have but to comply?
"Corona, enforce signal silence and full domain surveillance on Holy Land Star!"
Within seconds, Holy Land Star transformed from a pilgrimage site into a space prison isolated on an island.
However, despite Apostle Four and the Ten Saints Association's prompt response, they still overlooked one aspect—facing Bai Fu who possessed the Void bloodline and skillfully mastered the Void Travel ability.
"Can't beat you, but can't I shake you off?"
Bai Fu scoffed.
Actually, Apostle Four has a skill capable of blocking her Void Travel ability, which like her, is [Void Realm Dimension Descent], but unfortunately, in the [Overload] state, Apostle Four couldn't handle such delicate tasks now.
A Star Realm Channel suddenly opened in the sky, and Shadow Fu stumbled into the channel.
As Bai Fu was about to follow Shadow Fu to leave, the next moment she recoiled her foot.
Leave?
Leave, my foot!
Since her true body isn't here, with a hard-won descent to Holy Land Star in Apostle Holy City, if she didn't wreak havoc once, she might never have this opportunity again.
"Damn it, attacking the explored universe has prevented me from comfortably squeezing players to level up and develop!"
"I'll smash your lousy statue with one headlong crash!"
Under Apostle Four's oppressive aura, Bai Fu couldn't exert her full power, but wreaking havoc was still comfortably manageable.
Moreover, seeing her vandalism, Apostle Four deliberately allowed it, letting her wreak havoc unchecked.
This continued until the Saints and Corona arrived.
Bai Fu had no feud with the Saints, but not with Corona.
Corona had remotely attacked her before, back when she had just advanced to Dominator. If it hadn't been for the immunity to instant death talent, she might have been eliminated, let alone attain her current glory.
She had always wanted revenge on Corona, but this guy was a mechanic and always hid deeply. Occasionally when showing up, he would stay at the back of the team, never advancing, making revenge extremely difficult.
Finally, he's close, except...
Bai Fu looked at her hands.
Avenging with this form is completely dreaming.
No.
Who said revenge requires direct action?
There's still murder by proxy, right.
Bai Fu thought about the five Blank Skill Cards she just received through the task reward.
Blank Skill Cards can copy any skill from a designated target (not exceeding the user's level limit by 15 levels).
What if she copied the Saints and Corona's skills, then used the copied skills to sneak attack Apostle Four?
Go ahead, my Blank Skill Cards!
