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

"Damn it!"

Carlos's soul was almost scared away.

He had clearly instructed the logistical staff member closest to the gate button in the corridor to press the button, so why did the iron gate rise up again just when it was about to completely lower?

At first, he thought it was Bai Fu's superhuman strength lifting the iron gate directly, but when he looked closely, Bai Fu's body wasn't touching the gate at all.

In an instant, he thought of Deputy Officer Qian's ability, who had just been killed. Could it be that this silver-haired girl also possessed a superpower similar to Deputy Officer Qian's?

Deputy Officer Qian was only able to manipulate objects weighing a few kilograms, but even so, he was the strongest in Bagaros Base before Guido and Julia arrived. But this silver-haired girl could control the iron gate weighing over a ton – this gap...

Carlos felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

He had no doubt that this silver-haired girl, if serious, could rip this underground base into pieces by herself.

He stood there dumbfounded, watching the door open wider and wider, no longer harboring any thoughts of resistance in his heart.

Today, he would surely die.

As Bai Fu's face emerged, Carlos suddenly remembered, he nearly forgot that he had one last strategy up his sleeve – a secret technique passed down in his family.

"I surrender, don't kill me!"

Carlos immediately knelt on the ground.

His speed was so fast, faster than the orphan So, that neither his teammates, Bai Fu, players, nor the special agents with question marks could catch up to him.

"?"

When he used the [Custom Card: Combat Etiquette] on the person pressing the close button to make him press it again, Bai Fu knew this move would scare the person on the other side of the door, but she never expected the intimidation effect to be this outrageous.

Remember, Carlos was the head of Bagaros Base, and killing him carried a separate task reward.

This was truly a domineering aura being released, causing the enemy to surrender immediately.

The players witnessing this scene were all dumbfounded.

"[Is this unleashing the aura of an overlord?]"

"[Damn, I get it if the wilderness instance's BOSS runs away, but now there's even a surrender?]"

"[How strong is Fufu really?]"

"[Come and see the War God!]"

"[Is the Truth Society so shabby? I was even considering joining them before]"

No matter what, Carlos couldn't imagine how his actions had severely damaged the image of the Truth Society. The stark contrast between him and Bai Fu made many players who were considering joining the Truth Society waver.

Bai Fu was so fierce, the Truth Society so weak, recklessly joining the Truth Society could mean not reaping any benefits before the Truth Society is annihilated.

As these players hesitated, Guido, who witnessed Carlos's surrender, was nearly exploding with rage.

"Damn it, even if Bai Fu is strong, is this how you respond by directly surrendering?"

As a loyal follower of the Truth Society, Guido furiously raised his gun.

However, before he could act, Bai Fu had already shot three times at Carlos's face.

At close range, the shotgun blasted his head into a bloody mess. The impact of the pellets made brain tissue spurt out like spring water, coating the nearby walls.

Bai Fu sighed in relief.

That was close. Good thing she reacted quickly, otherwise that head would have been taken by the person opposite.

"[You have killed Carlos, the head of Bagaros Base, Contribution 100%, adjusted based on level difference to receive 12500 experience points]"

"[You have killed a member of the Truth Society, additional reward of 1000 experience points]"

"[You have completed the task [Beheading Action], Contribution 100%, receiving a reward of 50,000 experience points]"

A series of notifications followed, and Bai Fu found that she had enough experience points to level up again. She didn't deliberately suppress her level, and directly upgraded the Spiritual Ability Prayer Master to Lv7.

Now that both the head and the deputy officer of Bagaros Base were dead, it was time to reap the last mission rewards.

"Quickly clear this base, then head back and encircle the remaining forces from the Truth Society outside."

Bai Fu took command.

The players, quickly regaining their composure, led the way, dashing through the once again rising iron gate into the interior of the base, followed by Xu Hong and Xia Shi who also quickly came to their senses and eagerly joined the players in the charge, not wanting to end up embarrassingly untouched by the firefight.

The entire Bagaros Base was thrown into chaos.

With Deputy Officer Qian and Carlos dying too quickly, even if the remaining members of the base knew Guido and Julia were formidable, it was difficult for them to believe that these two could withstand Bai Fu.

"Run!"

"Go notify Dr. Luo!"

"Screw notifying, contacting headquarters is crucial right now."

In fact, not just these lower-ranking soldiers, but Guido was also severely flustered, having long sensed he might not be able to defeat Bai Fu. After what had just happened, he was even more certain.

Therefore, when he saw Julia walking out of a room, he quickly approached her.

"Old Qian and Carlos are dead, Bai Fu appears to have either the superpower to lift the iron gate or she mentally controlled the person hitting the button. We better retreat for now and plan for the long term."

Julia's blue eyes slightly stirred: "Are you sure she used a superpower to lift the gate rather than using Spiritual Energy to control the person pressing the button?"

"Hmm?"

Guido was momentarily stunned.

By the time he came to his senses, Julia had already grabbed the person trying to run by and threw that person in front of him.

"He was pressing the button just now, ask him if he opened the gate?"

Intimidated by Guido's fierce gaze, the captured logistical staff member's legs went weak.

"Sir Guido, I honestly don't know what happened. My hand suddenly acted on its own, pressing the button. By the time I realized it, it was already too late. I didn't do it on purpose, Sir Gui..."
