When You Become an NPC That Might Die Any Moment in the Novice Village-Chapter 402 - 152 From a Country Village Girl to the Lord of a Planet, Bai Fu’s Path of Advancement [5k]_3

Vic punched the chair in frustration and, raising his right hand excitedly, a virtual webpage appeared in front of Bai Fu, displaying news about Bai Fu taking Players around to "borrow" money,—which troubled the lending Evil Forces so much that they had expressed endless grievances.

"The news says that these people plan to run away as soon as they get the money. Even when cornered, their attitude is extremely bad. I've dealt with that lending gang a few times; in a fit of anger, they killed all those borrowers. I didn't expect the matter to get so blown up—it caught the attention of the public security bureau and, finally, they were all rounded up. Actually, it's good that the lenders were arrested, but it just had to be at this time… Ah, I couldn't borrow any money and, in frustration, ended up arguing with that waiter just now. Do you think these borrowers are not right in the head? Do they really think they can escape? In the end, they didn't even get to spend the borrowed money, and they lost their lives."

Vic incessantly babbled about this news, and it seemed his grievances were exceptionally deep.

Surrounding Players looked at each other, unsure of what judgment to make.

Bai Fu nodded solemnly, "Hearing you say so, they really don't sound like normal people."

"Exactly, exactly," An Ya chimed in for Bai Fu, "But rest assured, Boss is certainly not the kind of person described in the news. Whatever Boss does, he does reliably. Anything he sets out to do, he achieves. Running into Boss today is really striking it big—well, hitting the jackpot!"

"It's not as exaggerated as An Ya says."

"Boss, don't be modest."

"You're giving me too much credit."

"No…"

Watching the high-spirited duo, one tall and one short, one plump and one slender, Julia's icy face grew even colder.

Are you two performing a comedy skit here or what?

In the live stream room, Players were nearly fainting with laughter.

[Still, it's An Ya, just standing together with Fufu creates a spectacle]

[This is our Abandoned Cooling Factory's Tai Chi Combination Skill that gets the blood pumping!]

Initially quite irritable, Vic miraculously calmed down after Bai Fu and An Ya's elaborate speech.

He looked up, his gaze drifting upward, catching sight of Bai Fu's almost flawless face, beautiful enough to transcend Race.

But his attention wasn't on Bai Fu's face; rather, it was on the light veil around Bai Fu's body, tinged by the soft sunlight.

He was somewhat dazed, could it be that an angel had descended beside him?

Bai Fu smiled happily.

Right, right, I'm an angel, hurry up and issue the Task!

After a long while, Vic suddenly snapped back to attention, "You also know, I only have 2000 Credit Points on me, I can't afford to hire an A-grade Superpower User with that."

Bai Fu said, "If money is not enough, you can use other things instead, such as Spiritual Energy Advanced Knowledge, Mechanical Advanced Knowledge, or some other knowledge. If not those, then Move Books, Special Blueprints, and resources are also possible."

Vic pondered for a good while, "I don't have the knowledge you mentioned. I am a Spiritual Mind Master. All I can offer are the insights I've gained through my growth up to this point and some special techniques in using Spiritual Telekinesis. As for resources, I'm not sure if you would value the resources from my hometown."

Right after he finished speaking, Bai Fu received a game prompt.

[You have triggered the Hidden Task [Vic's Request]]

[Task Introduction:...]

[Task Objective: Help Vic prevent the Interstellar Slave Traders about to leave his hometown]

[Rewards: 2 million Experience Points, Affinity with Vic +60, Vic's Spirit Secret Scroll]

[Note: This Task is part of a series; completing this Task may trigger subsequent Tasks]

From the rewards, the difficulty of this Task seemed much easier than destroying the Fire Transmission House, which allowed Bai Fu to breathe a sigh of relief; with proper planning, she should be able to smoothly complete this Task. After finishing this Task, she estimated that her Transferring Professions Task would also be nearly met.

"Just as I guessed, this is a series of Tasks. I don't know if there are hidden plots on Vic or hidden plots in his hometown."

The reward for the first ring of the Task included 2 million Experience and a training scroll for Spiritual Mind Master, and subsequent rewards were sure to be even more tempting.

Let's use this Task as the starting point for ascending to the Peak of Star Sea!

Without any hesitation, Bai Fu accepted the Task.

"Let's go through the commission platform, this way, upon completing the Task, I'll also earn some commission points."

Vic had no objections.

With things having come this far, he could only rely on Bai Fu; otherwise, he would have had to return alone to save his hometown.

Under Bai Fu's guidance, Players who had registered as Hunters all accepted Vic's commission as her followers.

For the same Task, Players received much lower rewards; after all, Vic's commission was mainly meant for Bai Fu, while Players were just tagging along to partake in the leftovers.

However, this 'little' was only relative, for they were still feasting on the leftovers from Bai Fu's table, which in fact were quite substantial.

[Holy cow, completing the Task gives an Experience reward of 320,000, which is enough for me to level up!]

[There will definitely be numerous kill rewards during the Task; with some luck, their treasure hunting could earn them about 400,000 Experience; are these the rewards for high-level Star Sea Tasks?]

[All thanks to Fufu, without her leading, how could we possibly accept such high-level Tasks]

[Ahhh, I also want to benefit from following Fufu]

[Treasure hunting, I hate you, why did you have to show me this, I won't be able to sleep tonight]

The comments started going wild while Players following Bai Fu were overjoyed.

Rushing won't help; you can only watch enviously as we follow Fufu and heartily enjoy the benefits!

"Let's go!"

After concluding the transaction, Bai Fu didn't delay. Leading Vic, she boarded the Spaceship.

Vic's hometown was called Ulysses Star, originally located in the Dark Domain. Over 100 years ago, a mining team from the Sea Lion Star System accidentally discovered Ulysses Star, which has since been connected to the Star Sea.

With the Warp Engine at full speed, a day and a half later, the Spaceship passed through the Star Gate and arrived near Ulysses Star.
