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

To intercept Bai Fu and Elon, the Housekeeper of the Secret Tower did not hesitate to mobilize a secret fleet hidden near the Sea Lion Star System.

This fleet was not large and was originally intended to deal with the Star Network Community, but its appearance now would inevitably draw the attention of the Star Network Community, meaning that the previous substantial investment in building a fleet base was going to waste.

But in the eyes of the Housekeeper, the risk was worth taking.

In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the Secret Tower's headquarters were too far away from the Sea Lion Star System, making it difficult for other fleets to arrive at the battlefield in a short time, he would never have only sent one fleet there.

As long as they could successfully capture those from the Blessing Sect and take the real True Spirit Pillar into their hands, let alone one base, even if they had to give a few more bases to the Star Network Community, what would it matter?

Without the True Spirit Pillar, the Secret Tower's plan could still proceed, but with it, the chances of the plan's success would greatly increase, and the time required would significantly decrease, a value that was obviously much greater than that of several bases!

"Rest assured, they won't get away!"

Foster, the commander of the Secret Tower fleet, confidently said to the Housekeeper's holographic shadow that emerged in the spaceship.

The Housekeeper nodded, "I await your good news."

As his holograph disappeared, the Secret Tower Star Network fleet broke free from the black domain formed by high-speed travel and formally ended the warp mode.

Space ripples rolled out in the universe, and in the next moment, hundreds of spaceships burst out of the spatial ripples at an extremely fast speed, densely packed, like a crowded flock of geese.

"They're here!"

On the spaceship, Elon's pupils suddenly shrank.

The monitor showed that as soon as the Secret Tower's spaceships appeared, their cannons immediately activated, unleashing thick beams across the starry sky, brutally piercing through the mining ship of the Trolla Pirate Group.

This mining ship had already been battered and torn; now, following this blast, a chain of explosions erupted on the ship, like a tremendously magnificent cosmic fireworks display.

Beautiful.

But behind this silent beauty lurked a chilling and bone-piercing intent to kill!

"It looks like the Secret Tower is really going all out this time, determined to put us to death!" Elon's expression grew extremely serious, yet beneath this seriousness, a hint of excitement also showed through.

Good!

He hadn't even asked the precise location of the True Spirit Pillar; he had just learned from Sean that the Secret Tower possessed something very similar to it, and now they were taking such drastic measures to kill them—what did this indicate?

It indicated that the True Spirit Pillar was indeed in the hands of the Secret Tower, who were worried that they would spread the news and thus had to silence them by killing them.

While the information obtained thus far through Spiritual Energy Hypnosis Technique had all been truthful, there's always room for exceptions, right? What if there was a mistake this time? Fortunately, the Secret Tower's actions had told them that they hadn't guessed wrong!

At this point, both Elon and Suixi were one hundred percent certain that the True Spirit Pillar was in the hands of the Secret Tower.

Elon couldn't help but glance at Bai Fu.

In his eyes, Bai Fu, the Dark Domain Queen, was like a lucky star for the Blessing Sect. Over the past hundred years, despite all their efforts, the Blessing Sect had never found the True Spirit Pillar, but as soon as Bai Fu appeared, they smoothly found a clue to the True Spirit Pillar.

His affinity for Bai Fu surged.

Not just Elon, but Suixi's affinity for Bai Fu also increased a bit.

"No way?"

Bai Fu was taken aback; her vision hadn't blurred just now, had it? She noticed Suixi looking at her, and a smile had flickered across his lips.

She hurriedly cast Spiritual Vision toward both Elon and Suixi and was surprised to discover that their affinities for her had indeed increased not long ago.

This was crazy.

Her affinity hadn't increased when she, along with the players, captured the Fake Suixing, nor when she took control of Sean, so why the sudden increase now?

Was it a game bug, or were those two indulging in some wild fantasies just now?

Bai Fu was perplexed, but she knew that now was not the time to ponder such matters, because after destroying the mining ship, the Secret Tower's fleet had already started chasing them.

Still smiling, still laughing—when the spaceship explodes later, let's see how you two can still laugh!

Bai Fu grabbed Trolla in one swift motion: "You're familiar with this area, aren't you? If you don't want to be blasted to death by a salvo from the Secret Tower's spaceship, then lead the way, and quickly."

"Yes, yes, yes."

Trolla nodded like a pecking chicken.

Under his command, the spaceship took a sharp turn and flew towards a nearby area of extreme spatial instability.

Whether in terms of firepower, resilience, speed, or numbers, the Secret Tower's battleships were more than enough to crush the spaceship they were all aboard. If they wanted to escape, direct warping was definitely not an option, because warp engines required some time to activate, and the spaceship would likely be surrounded before the engines could start. The best method was to rely on the harsh environment of the Constant Star Graveyard to shake off the Secret Tower's fleet first, then initiate warp.

As the spaceship sped forward, Bai Fu's heartbeat also quickened.

Since arriving in the Star Sea, this was probably the most dangerous moment she had faced, aside from the time the Night Mother Cessia locked onto her.

She considered this moment less dangerous than that time because Cessia's skills had truly made her feel the passage of life and the descent of death; whereas now, her greatest feeling was one of thrill and excitement. As for death...

Well, it was only chasing behind her as of now.

"Like to gang up on people, huh? Just wait!"

Bai Fu added another grievance for the Secret Tower in her little book of grudges.
