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

Including previous recruits from Ancestral Origin Star, Indigo Star, and Golden Valley Star, Bai Fu now commanded over fifty thousand players.

These players might not seem sufficient for interstellar wars, since a standard-sized attack carrier could carry tens of thousands, and any ordinary star system-level civilization possessed at least several such carriers.

However, dispatching fifty thousand players, who were comparable in power to Level B Superpower Users and fearless of death, against minor forces holed up on a tiny planet was quite like taking candy from a baby.

"Set off!"

Bai Fu issued the order to strike, and shortly thereafter, more than a dozen spaceships flew out from the branch of the Star Contract Initial Gate Star System.

At this moment, the focus of public opinion in the Initial Gate Star System still revolved around conflicts between the Secret Tower and the Star Network. Nobody paid attention to the cargo spaceships that Bai Fu had leased through Green Mud, nor did anyone know what kind of eerie things those cargo spaceships had brought to the Star Sea!

...

Neville Star.

It was midnight. Vic, with a serious expression, explained to the players beside him the specifics of their target for this operation.

"Our target for this attack is an interstellar logistics company called 'Between Two Points.' On the surface, it seems just an ordinary logistics company, but secretly, it has murky dealings with both the interstellar pirates and the Secret Tower. The owner, named Reeves, is a peak Level A Superpower User whose strength should not be underestimated, and he has under him... Considering the complex layout of the company's warehouse, my plan is..."

"Mr. Vic."

Just as Vic was prattling on without stop, Sky-Surpassing Sword Qi stood up and interrupted him.

"Do you have a question?" Vic asked.

Sky-Surpassing Sword Qi said, "Your plan is very clever and can effectively reduce our casualty rate. However, you've forgotten that we are the Undying People. Casualty rates are meaningless to us. What we care about is only whether the mission can be successfully completed. Even if the casualty rate is a hundred percent, it doesn't matter as long as the mission is completed. If the mission fails, even a zero casualty rate is unacceptable."

Vic was momentarily stunned. "Then what's your plan?"

My Virtual Library Empire (M|V|LE1MPYR) thanks you for reading at the source.

"My plan is—" Sky-Surpassing Sword Qi paused for a moment, "to have no plan!"

Yes, he hadn't thought of any plan at all!

It wasn't that he couldn't come up with one or didn't have the time to; he simply hadn't bothered to think about it.

There was no need.

For this operation, they were dealing with a force whose strongest member was only a Level A Superpower User. For such a level of target, a straightforward charge was all that was needed, without any need for convolutions.

A Level A Superpower User, impressive?

Could you defeat one, two, ten Level B Superpower Users? What if I deployed a hundred Level B Superpower Users with weapons capable of injuring you?

Just do it!

If they delayed, the other side might realize their intentions and, upon sensing that things were turning sour, might destroy the master sample of the Dissociative Potion.

Sky-Surpassing Sword Qi felt his blood boil. At this moment, he felt as if he was possessed by Afu, with his mind filled with war, only war.

He actually wasn't much of a warmonger, but he had been bottled up for too long. Since the battle at Heavenly Lake Star, it had been over a year since he had seriously participated in a combat-type task in the game.

It couldn't be helped; Bai Fu's level was too high, and the levels of her opponents were too high—those levels of battle were simply not where he could intervene.

Though he could gain a lot of experience just by following behind Bai Fu and watching the plot unfold, compared to such an easy leveling up method, Sky-Surpassing Sword Qi still preferred leveling up by battling.

As the chairman of a major guild, blitzing through high-difficulty group instances, strategizing against world bosses...that was what he truly sought!

"Have you guys forgotten the coordination we practiced on Ancestral Origin Star?"

Sky-Surpassing Sword Qi turned and spoke to the guild members.

Among the more than forty thousand Ancestral Origin Star players brought in the cargo ship were several hundred members of the Iron Rain Guild, and among these players were many high-skilled ones who had made their mark on the leaderboard. This was the confidence that emboldened Sky-Surpassing Sword Qi to dare to charge into battle.

"How could we forget, boss Sword, let's start, my spear is already itching for action!"

"Indeed, it's time to remind Fufu just how formidable we are!"

"Let's declare our arrival to the starry sky with this battle!"

One after another, such typical over-the-top lines burst forth.

Apart from the Iron Rain Guild, other players were also rubbing their hands together, exceptionally excited.

Seeing this scene, Vic's corner of his mouth twitched. He was somewhat worried. Could this really work, or should he consult Bai Fu?

Thinking this, he quickly contacted Bai Fu and relayed what was happening here to her.

Bai Fu's response was only five words—

"Let them charge!"

She had brought the players from the Newbie Planet to the Star Sea exactly so they could charge. Of course, she meant for the players to charge for her, not against her.

Vic took a deep breath. If that was the case, then charge it would be!

At his command, tens of thousands of players charged towards the Between Two Points logistics company from all directions.

A charge by a hundred was already quite a spectacle, but a charge by ten thousand—we usually only have two words to describe such a scene—

A torrent!

"Holy shit, what's happening?"

Everyone, both inside and outside the logistics company, was completely dumbfounded by this scene.

Due to the suddenness of the event, many even thought that the warehouse walls of the Between Two Points logistics company had collapsed and that the charging players were heading there for a free-for-all.

A free-for-all?

For a while, many onlookers joined the players in their charge, but as they did, they began to realize something was off.
