When You Become an NPC That Might Die Any Moment in the Novice Village-Chapter 68 - 38 First Enhancement, Evolution Blood! [Two-in-One for More Follow-Up Reads]_3
Bai Fu closed the door and returned to her room. She had only been seated for about ten minutes when she suddenly received a new game prompt.
The sourc𝗲 of this content is freēwēbηovel.c૦m.
[Plot Participation Confirmation in Progress (0%...23%...100%)]
[Character Setting Revision in Progress (0%...11%...)]
Wait, could it be that the major event she had been anticipating had arrived?
Bai Fu's breathing suddenly became rapid.
When the data revision progress hit 100%, it seemed as though celestial music played in her ears.
[You have obtained the talent [Luck]]
[Luck]: You are born with luck surpassing ordinary people, and when making determinations, your success rate is increased by 10%.]
It had arrived, the enhancement she had been waiting for had finally come!
Bai Fu trembled with excitement; this meant that her strategy to strengthen herself by boosting her popularity was correct.
Though the game hadn't given her a special template or a new background setting directly, this [Luck] talent could not have come at a better time.
A 10% increase in success rate meant that she could fully absorb Julia's enhancement potions with a hundred percent success rate.
Bai Fu quickly took out the enhancement potion, and as she predicted, the description in the additional effects changed, with a (+10%) now appearing after the 90%.
She decisively downed the entire potion in one gulp.
This time, it took her a full hour for the enhancement progress bar to reach 100%. During this, she occasionally experienced piercing pains in her body, but this level of suffering was completely worth it.
After unlocking the [Evolution Blood] template, all her stats jumped up significantly.

Looking at the soaring blood bar, Bai Fu's mouth almost couldn't close from smiling. Now, she could take on two or three of her previous selves without breaking a sweat; the power of an advanced template was evident.
"Good, good, good, next I need to continue to farm player affinity!"
Bai Fu already had a preliminary plan; she would farm some affinity using the monument, and next, she planned to use the Profession Knowledge Books obtained from the Wildfire Gang to help players level up, allowing them to reap some benefits. That way, she could better leverage the camp system and the fake background she had concocted to direct players to work for her.
The next day, around noon, the reinforcements convoy from the Genetic Primordials rolled mightily into the Abandoned Cooling Factory.
As soon as they disembarked, they captured the boss of the Wildfire Gang and summoned Yago and Xia Shi for interrogation. After learning about Bai Fu's existence, they summoned Bai Fu too, but only asked her a few simple questions. Once they confirmed that it was improbable for Bai Fu to be associated with the Truth Society, they immediately stated that the chief of the area wished to personally reward her and hoped that Bai Fu could accompany them to Lynn.
Naturally, Bai Fu was pleased.
With the Wildfire Gang's collapse, the loss of Julia's fake body, and no further benefits to staying at the Abandoned Cooling Factory, she was better off leaving for Lynn sooner. There, she could also seek out Advanced Knowledge Books from various places.
"Thank you very much for your cooperation."
After sweeping around the Abandoned Cooling Factory, the Genetic Primordial reinforcements turned the Wildfire Gang's hideout upside down, ensuring nothing was overlooked. Then, they left in their vehicles that very evening.
Just as Bai Fu and An Ya hitched a ride to Lynn, the official "Stars Above" finally released a new promotional video—
Stars Shining!
The moment the video went live, its popularity skyrocketed.
This wasn't just any promotional video; it integrated many clips shot by the players themselves, so there was already a lot of anticipation amongst the players even before the video was launched.
What a wonderful thing it would be if the footage you shot or your favorite NPC appeared in the promotional video.
The moment the video was published, a massive number of players opened it up and began to frantically post comments.
[Holy shit, I got picked! It really got picked, the cool clip where Fufu grabs the treasure hunter by the neck and lifts him up!]
[Wait a minute, there's not just one clip of Fufu, the part where she says goodbye to everyone after the Insect Tide has also been added to the promo!]
[Digging Girl is on fire, she got picked for two clips!]
A group of players were celebrating until a comment jumped out.
[Sure it's cool, but is Fufu still alive?]
Damn!
This question directly stunned the players who liked Bai Fu.
While waiting for the game to restart, they had been pondering this very question; some analyzed it on the community forums, others left messages for the official game support, but no one could provide a definitive answer.
Since the officials had not responded, their hearts sank more and more—
Fufu probably really was beyond saving.
I don't want it to be true!
Digging Girl, usually one to post in the community, this time closed the forum outright. It wasn't that she feared being grilled by the fun-seekers; she dared not look at others' analysis, frightened that she'd pass out from anger at the mere sight of the words "Bai Fu is dead."
[Come on, why isn't the server open yet, I need to enter the game to confirm right now]
At long last, the game server restarted, and Digging Girl didn't hesitate for a second, clicking to enter the game.
After resurrecting at the Resurrection Point, she ran straight to Bai Fu's house, only to find an empty dwelling.
"It's... it's over!"
Digging Girl felt a chill in her heart.
The real blow came from a conversation she overheard from passersby; as she walked, the voices of two Scavengers discussing floated into her ears.
"Did you hear Bai Fu is gone?"
"Yeah, gone."
Digging Girl couldn't take in the words that followed; her mind was reverberating with just that one word, "gone."
"Gone" was just a euphemism for "dead," wasn't it?
Digging Girl felt her composure implode.
"Ah ah ah—"
She screamed and rushed out.
She ran aimlessly, yet perhaps something subconscious took over as she found herself at a familiar place—it was where she had first encountered Bai Fu.
That should have been the start of a "legend," but the legend ultimately turned out to be nothing more than a bubble.
Why did it turn out like this?
Walking and walking, Digging Girl came to a stop; she found a monument blocking the path ahead.
"Was there a monument here before?"
She stepped forward and looked closely, finding an inscription on the stone.
[In memory of the brave ones who sacrificed themselves to save the Abandoned Cooling Factory—
Bai Fu]
"Huh?"
Digging Girl stood there, stunned.
