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

During that brief moment just now, Su Li and her group had made their way near the research facility. Although the total level of Su Li and her team didn't match hers, they were definitely S-rank assassins on the Dark Web.

Admittedly, there were differences within the S-rank, but even the worst S-rank had a certain baseline of ability.

After Su Li and her team entered the facility through other shooting points, the entire battle situation took a complete turn.

"Tiger Running Fist!"

With boxing gloves on, Su Li burst into the fray amongst the guards, Qi energy erupting from her body with every punch causing an explosion.

Ferreira refused to be outdone, and with a loud laugh, he threw open the overcoat he was wearing to reveal a mass of creepy black bugs that made one's scalp tingle.

"Go!"

No sooner had the words left his mouth than the bugs swarmed towards the intercepting guards like a flood pouring down from the mountains.

Although Coyote's name suggested a wild style, his fighting style was actually quite elegant. As a superpower user, he stood poised, hands weaving gracefully as he controlled the giant wolf phantom, as though he were conducting a symphony orchestra.

"I thought there were only three of them?"

The mutants rushing out from the depths of the research facility changed their expressions drastically, but at this time they didn't have the luxury to fret over such details. They split up, each seeking out an opponent, just hoping that the reinforcements from Sea Capital would arrive quickly; otherwise, they were all likely to die there.

"Damn it!"

The head of the research facility was so angry that he smashed a cup beside him to pieces.

There was no time to hesitate. He hurried over to the microphone: "Hear my command, close all the gates, now, immediately!"

The person receiving the order didn't dare to delay, quickly pressing the button to lower the gates; they too feared the outsiders breaking in, sending them to their deaths.

As he watched all three gates successfully descend, the person in charge breathed a sigh of relief.

"Perfect."

The gates were made of special materials; even if those outside were strong, they wouldn't be able to break through for a while. They should be able to hold out until the reinforcements arrived.

The person in charge couldn't help but laugh.

"These intruders are still too green. If they had concentrated their forces and charged in at the beginning, I might not really have been able to stop them today. At that point... I would have had to initiate the self-destruct button."

As his anxiety dispersed, he started to study the surveillance footage.

These people looked somewhat familiar.

Those who came in later were particularly noticeable – controlling the giant wolf phantom, controlling the bugs – weren't they the well-known assassins on the Dark Web? As for the woman using martial arts, he couldn't tell at the moment.

And the white-haired woman who came in first...

"Bai Fu!"

The person in charge thought of a name that filled the Genetic Primordial's higher-ups with immense fury.

Yes, it must be her. No wonder she came to attack this research facility.

He trembled with excitement, today could be his day of great achievement. Once the reinforcements arrived and they successfully captured Bai Fu, he would undoubtedly get a promotion.

"Hahaha, fortune favors me too!"

The person in charge prepared to contact Sea Capital, to report this discovery, but before he could turn around, he suddenly heard heart-wrenching screams coming from outside.

"?"

He searched around and finally, in the top-left corner of a screen, found the source of the screams.

It was from a mutant who had just left the area, collapsing in front of Bai Fu, his chest a gruesome mess, clearly not long for this world.

The person in charge's pupils shrunk sharply.

He knew the strength of that mutant well, but he had been killed in less than a minute after fighting Bai Fu? How could the gap in strength be so vast when Bai Fu had only been able to flee when originally pursued by the Genetic Primordial?

He could only be grateful that he hadn't blindly trusted the strength of those mutants and had lowered the gates in time.

The person in charge shook his head inwardly, turning to contact Sea Capital to report the good news.

...

Meanwhile, outside the gates.

Bai Fu moved past the bodies on the ground with an unfazed expression; for mutants who relied on their physical Power in combat, the Electric Knife plus Spiritual Ability Explosion was too restraining.

At this moment, Su Li's voice sounded: "Silver Moon, quickly look around to see if there's a way into the deeper parts of the research facility, we must get the research data."

Bai Fu waved her hand dismissively: "No need for the trouble."

She had already arranged everything, and now all she needed to do was move forward.

"You..."

Alarmed, Su Li exposed an opening and was punched by a mutant. However, she wasn't angry; after kicking the mutant flying, she looked at Bai Fu in astonishment.

"Are you zoning out in the middle of a fight?"

Coyote's face turned half dark, but after following Su Li's gaze, he too was stunned.

After that, like the spread of a plague, whether it was the people from Railroad Guild or those inside the research facility, everyone turned their heads to look at Bai Fu in unison.

They watched Bai Fu standing at the entrance to the first gate, watched as the gate slowly rose, and saw the Players crouching down and reaching out behind it.

"Fufu, the second gate is this way, please follow me."

Bai Fu nodded slightly: "Thank you for the effort."

The scene was every bit that of a Queen arriving with subordinates ready to receive her!

Under the guidance of the Players, Bai Fu walked towards the second gate.

Not until then did the researchers in the corridor and on its sides realize something was amiss.

"What are you doing, why are you opening the gates, do you want to kill everyone? Wait, you are spies..."

Bang!

Bai Fu shot the blabbering person dead, then proceeded forward as if nothing had happened.

The other research facility members mumbled, but in the end, they couldn't muster a coherent sentence. They had seen the monitors, knowing that Bai Fu killed those powerful mutants as easily as slaughtering chickens; wouldn't killing them, the researchers or the security personnel, be even easier?
