When You Become an NPC That Might Die Any Moment in the Novice Village-Chapter 43 - 29 You are a bit too extreme [Two in One, Asking for Follow-up Read]_2
At first, he certainly didn't believe such claims, and then the man known as Number Seven pulled out a spherical artifact. At that moment, he felt as though he was under some immobilization spell, his entire body and the space around him firmly fixed together, unable to move at all.
That was the first time he felt despair.
Having been in this line of work his entire life, he had faced threats of death more than once, but only this time he saw no possibility for resistance, for he couldn't even understand the moves his opponent was making.
The unknown is the greatest fear!
Under pressure, and also out of a desire to stand out, the leader of the Wildfire Gang agreed to help.
In a small place like the Abandoned Cooling Factory, no matter how much one struggled, one would never make it big—in the eyes of those big shots, they were less than worms.
If there wasn't a chance, that's fine, but, when the opportunity was right before his eyes, he would try climbing up no matter what.
But this path was not easy to ascend.
Though he had given it his all, these two brawny gatekeepers never showed him a kind face, only Julia was somewhat nicer.
This time too, it was Julia who stepped in to ease the situation, "All right, what's there to laugh about? Can you guarantee that what he's saying isn't true? Don't underestimate the technology of Genetic Primordials."
Both the Abandoned Cooling Factory and Lynn were under the control of Genetic Primordials, famous for their research on mutants.
"I don't understand the technical stuff, you make the call."
Number Seven, with a grin that seemed like a smile but was actually hiding his anger.
Julia wasn't intimidated by his gaze, "Go and investigate to see if those foreigners have anything to do with Genetic Primordials, if they do, then we can't stay here."
Number Seven didn't move.
Julia's gaze turned icy, "If the task fails, do you think the Chairman will come looking for you first, or for me?"
Number Seven was silent for a while, "Then I guess I'll need to make a move."
He shrugged his shoulders and walked past the leader of the Wildfire Gang.
"I…" the leader of the Wildfire Gang felt somewhat embarrassed.
Julia said, "Notify me if there's anything."
This was essentially an indirect way of asking him to leave. The leader of the Wildfire Gang excused himself and left, his mind full of anxiety, this time he had thoroughly infuriated Number Seven.

Once this matter was settled, with Number Seven's even more extreme nature than Wenliang, he would definitely come looking for trouble.
In terms of strength, he was no match for Number Seven, who had the spherical artifact, and in terms of background, he was even more outmatched.
Although Julia had promised to recommend him to the Truth Society, judging by Number Seven's attitude towards Julia, she probably couldn't protect him.
"Damn it!"
At this point, the leader of the Wildfire Gang realized he had only one option left.
Come on, Undying People from afar, you must kill that ignorant fool Number Seven!
After exiting through a secret door, the leader of the Wildfire Gang ran into Bai Fu, who had come to submit her task.
"You've collected them already? Good, very good."
He nodded repeatedly, not in the mood to ask how Bai Fu had managed to collect the Poison Sacks.
That was somewhat unexpected for Bai Fu; she had thought up several excuses before coming, but since the leader of the Wildfire Gang didn't ask, there was no need for her to mention them.
[You've completed the Camp Task [Material Collection (Special)], reward: 10000 Experience Points, 20 Camp Reputation]
Bai Fu didn't hesitate to upgrade her Spiritual Ability Apprentice to Lv8 and then added the extra 2 attribute points to her Constitution.
Her attribute panel underwent a new change.
[Template]: Ordinary
[Experience]: 2751
[Main Profession]: Spiritual Ability Apprentice Lv8 (0/10000), Unemployed Lv5 (Full Level)
[Secondary Profession]: None
[Life Value]: 290/290
[Spiritual Ability Value]: 60/60
[Attributes]: Power 7, Agility 5, Constitution 26, Intelligence 3, Spirit 12, Inspiration 12
Her Camp Reputation had risen from 22 points to 42 points — this reputation was not low.
Bai Fu noticed that the leader of the Wildfire Gang's attitude towards her was noticeably warmer than before.
"Boss, do you have any other tasks for me?"
Now she was in a period of close cooperation with the players, and she wanted to take advantage of the momentum to do more tasks, hoping to level up her Spiritual Ability Apprentice to Lv10, then go search for Advanced Knowledge.
The leader of the Wildfire Gang shook his head, "You've been busy for several days already, take a break. I'll call you if there's another task."
What a pity.
Bai Fu could only look elsewhere for more tasks.
After bidding farewell to the Wildfire Gang leader, she visited the library and took out the "Basic Boxing Instruction" book she had found earlier.
There were two main reasons for choosing this Profession Knowledge Book.
The most direct reason was that it was the book that could maximize the players' combat ability at this stage.
Other Profession Knowledge Books, like "Gun Assembly" or "Special Agent 101," you can't say their activated professions aren't powerful, but they lack the versatility of "Basic Boxing Instruction."
After all, if you transfer to a Gunman, you've got to get a gun, and being a Special Agent requires you to find a way to get some special equipment.
"Basic Boxing Instruction" didn't have this problem—you don't need to have practiced boxing to be unable to use the skills.
The second reason Bai Fu chose "Basic Boxing Instruction" was because the book was thin, with only about twenty pages, and each page was dominated by illustrations supplemented by a small amount of text, making it very suitable for copying.
Yes.
Bai Fu didn't plan to give the original "Basic Boxing Instruction" to the players; she intended to copy it herself.
This book was borrowed from the Wildfire Gang's library. She could borrow and return it without much difficulty, but failing to return it would be trouble. She would get scolded at the very least, and it would be even worse if her affiliations with the players were discovered.
Besides, players were now saying she was stealing Profession Knowledge Books, so naturally she had to meet their expectations.
Directly bringing the original would be stealing too, but that would make it seem too easy to steal the book. It was more touching to say she "secretly made a copy."
Bai Fu was right.
When she handed the hand-drawn "Basic Boxing Instruction" to the Digging Girl, the players around her and those in the live stream were deeply moved.
[Damn, I can't imagine how much effort Fufu put into copying this Profession Knowledge Book, not to mention the huge risk of exposure she took.]
[Now nothing would work, not even that big Mecha from the trailer. Fufu is the best, I swear!]
[Indeed, the big Mecha is cool, but I can't operate it. Fufu is different; she not only gives me money but also Profession Knowledge Books. I was just worrying about how to transfer professions.]
[Oh my, such boundless merit!]
[Fufu: I want to create a world where every player can easily switch professions!]
[Fu Sect!]
Amid the laughter and cheer, Bai Fu was nearly treated like a deity.
Although the game had only been open for about ten days, the number of players who had acquired new professions wasn't really that high.
Bai Fu's gesture directly gave the players who had helped her collect poison sacs an opportunity to switch professions, which not only brought her a big wave of popularity but also made positive publicity.
[It's different when you increase an NPC's Affinity, if Bai Fu's Affinity for treasure hunting was in the single digits, forget about Profession Knowledge Books, she might not even give away 200 Credit Coins.]
Many players had already made up their minds; the next time they encountered Bai Fu, they would boost her Affinity whatever it took!
Bai Fu was completely satisfied.
The benefit from one player was minor, but the benefits from tens of thousands of players stacked up to an astronomical number.
"Take your time to learn; I have to go. Recently, the Wildfire Gang has been keeping a close eye, and I can't expose my identity yet."
Bai Fu made an excuse to leave.
She didn't have time to chat with the players anymore; she had to see if there were any nearby tasks she could do to gain experience, as she still needed over 20,000 Experience Points to level her Spiritual Ability Apprentice to Lv10.
As she walked up the street near "Shopping Street," Bai Fu stopped.
To the side.
A muscular man, obviously out of place in the Abandoned Cooling Factory area, grabbed a stall owner by the throat.
"Tell me, where are those outsiders hiding, or I'll kill you right now."
Bai Fu was startled.
Although bullying was common in the Abandoned Cooling Factory, she had never seen anyone as extreme as this man.
Fortunately, the person he was facing was a player who could be even more ruthless, so she wasn't worried at all; she was just very curious about his identity as she had no recollection of him.
Bai Fu threw a Spiritual Vision at the muscular man.
