Who Made Her an NPC?! Chapter 346 : The Bai Fu Classmate Skilled in Sowing Discord

Chapter 346: The Bai Fu Classmate Skilled in Sowing Discord

“What kind of commotion is that?”

The guard stationed on Holy Land Star looked up in surprise, just in ti to see two deep gashes cut across the sky.

“Enemy attack! Enemy attack!”

The guard cried out in panic.

As the holy land of the Apostolic Holy City, Holy Land Star was known to be heavily fortified with nurous defensive asures.

Even so, the enemy still dared to launch an assault—this clearly ant the enemy was not to be underestimated!

What, you're asking if it's possible that the ones coming are just clueless greenhorns?

Don’t be ridiculous.

True greenhorns wouldn't even be able to reach Holy Land Star. The outer defenses alone were enough to stop them in their tracks.

In an instant, the planetary defense system of Holy Land Star activated at full power.

The sky was sealed by a massive black net, and on the ground, one after another, True Spirit summons erged.

“Big Sister, leave all this to . You go deal with that Fourth Apostle.”

Shadow Foxtail made a move to charge toward the black net.

Bai Fu quickly grabbed her: “No need to bother. I don’t even consider this level of defense worth my attention.”

Hm?

Shadow Foxtail hadn’t even figured out what was happening when a vast gray mist suddenly erupted from Bai Fu’s body.

Everything touched by the gray mist—her, the black net, the True Spirit summons on the ground, and even the guards of the Apostolic Holy City stationed on Holy Land Star—all “softened” in that mont.

“What is this?”

“Suppression. It lowers energy activity. Even transcendent beings who’ve undergone three evolutions can’t fully resist it!”

Bai Fu grabbed Shadow Foxtail’s hand, and the two of them plumted toward the ground like cannonballs.

The now inert black net was completely useless, torn apart as easily as paper by the falling duo. The mbers of the Apostolic Holy City below were sweating in panic but completely powerless.

They couldn't muster any strength, and weapons powered by psionics and dark energy were equally ineffective.

Worse still, the next second they realized in horror that they couldn’t move at all!

Spatial ability?

And at a transcendent level?

It was over.

Terror spread like a plague within the space where ti had been slowed to a crawl.

This ti, Bai Fu completely ignored those she had frozen with【Spaceti Freeze】.

Her target was the “thing” hidden by the Apostolic Holy City. Because she didn’t know whether the Supre Apostle on the front lines had a way to imdiately return to Holy Land Star, her plan was to strike fast and finish even faster.

As soon as she bypassed the outer defenses of Holy Land Star, she had Shadow Foxtail start causing chaos on the surface, while she herself quietly snuck toward the location ntioned by Sui Xi.

Bai Fu hoped to lure the Fourth Apostle away with this.

But she still underestimated the Fourth Apostle.

Holy Land Star, base of the Apostolic Holy City, was under attack?

Who cares!

Even if Holy Land Star blew up, as long as the thing in the hidden chamber was unhard, everything was fine!

“Who are you?”

The mont Bai Fu’s hand touched the statue, a decagonal prism made entirely of crystals suddenly shot up, blocking her path with overwhelming force.

Tch, guess sneaking in wasn’t going to work—she had actually wanted to peek inside discreetly.

Bai Fu promptly tossed a Psionic Vision at the Fourth Apostle.

Very soon, an extrely complex data panel popped up before her eyes.

【Na】: ??? (Overload)(Limit-Break)(Echo)(……)

【Template】: Remnant of the Old Days (Undergoing Fusion Evolution)

【Main Class】: Apostle of the Old Days Lv35 [ 230]

【Sub Class】: None

【HP】: ……

【Psionic Value】: ……

【Stats】: ……

【Skills】: Power of the Trichotomy, ……

【Talents】: Great Luck, Resonance, Superstrings, Particles of the Ethereal Realm, Overloaded Fusion ……

【Favorability】: Killing Intent Overflowing (−71)

【Danger Level】: Red

The Fourth Apostle wasn’t the first Apostle Bai Fu had encountered—but it was the first complete Apostle she had ever t. Its data panel was even more complex than Élisée’s, who was in the middle of awakening as the【God of the Ethereal Realm】!

Not only were the number of skills and talents too many to count, the status tags after its na and the details of the template were long enough to make her tongue-tied.

“What kind of freak is this thing?”

Bai Fu was almost dumbfounded.

She had acquired a bunch of skills and Prayer Card blueprints from other Psionic Priests via open-source exchange, but even then, her data panel was only half as complex as the Fourth Apostle’s. If this guy claid he wasn’t cheating, she’d do a handstand and bite her own foot right there.

One second later, Bai Fu figured out the reason.

【Overloaded Fusion】: The Fourth Apostle had fused parts of the True Spirit marrow from both the First Apostle and the Third Apostle. This abnormal fusion granted it power beyond normal limits, at the cost of falling into an overloaded state.

In its overloaded state, even its physical form had changed—from vaguely humanoid to… sothing else. It could no longer control its powers with the sa precision as before; it couldn’t perform delicate operations anymore.

However, compared to the benefits it gained through fusion, those drawbacks were clearly acceptable.

After all, the fusion had given the Fourth Apostle a massive power boost.

For example, the【Particles of the Ethereal Realm】talent ca from the First Apostle, and the【Resonance】talent ca from the Third Apostle.

“How did it manage that?”

Bai Fu inhaled sharply.

AA had told her that the First Apostle wielded unmatched power within the Ethereal Realm. So how did the Fourth Apostle get a portion of the First Apostle’s, aning Élisée’s, True Spirit marrow?

Suppressing the shock in her heart, Bai Fu spoke to the Fourth Apostle in an eerily twisted tone: “Who I am doesn’t matter. What does matter is—your little secret of having fused the True Spirit marrow of the God of the Ethereal Realm and the Third Apostle is about to spread across the stars!”

Truth be told, Bai Fu just wanted to spook the Fourth Apostle and add a bit of mystery to her persona. But this line unexpectedly had an unforeseen effect.

Buzz!

The Fourth Apostle's body trembled violently.

Never in its wildest dreams did it expect Bai Fu to expose its greatest secret with just a single sentence.

This secret was known only to itself, the Third Apostle, and the Supre Apostle—not even the God of the Ethereal Realm knew.

Now that the Third Apostle was dead, and it certainly hadn’t spread the information itself, then... was it the Supre Apostle who leaked the intel?

Why? Why would the Supre Apostle do this?

Was it intentional, or an accident?

The Fourth Apostle’s thoughts raced.

After much deliberation, it arrived at only one conclusion—

The Supre Apostle wanted to make it a public target and then get rid of it using others!

It had always known that its so-called cooperation with the Supre Apostle was really just mutual exploitation, but it never imagined that the Supre Apostle would be so impatient as to try to kick it out before even securing the Explored Universe.

“Well then, fine! Just perfect!”

The flas of fury ignited in the Fourth Apostle’s heart, though it didn’t let it show.

“What is your relationship with the Supre Apostle?”

“Huh?”

Bai Fu froze.

Why was the Fourth Apostle suddenly jumping topics like this? How had she gotten dragged into sothing with the Supre Apostle?

“My relationship with the Supre Apostle isn’t important. What is important is your collaboration with him. You’re trying to use his power to resolve the various problems caused by fusing True Spirit marrow, aren’t you?”

The Fourth Apostle let out a cold laugh. “Heh, doesn’t matter. If I can’t beco the God of the Ethereal Realm, then he can forget about becoming the Twelfth Apostle using my power. Don’t think I can’t see through his ambitions—I’ve been prepared for this all along!”

“Huh?”

Bai Fu froze again, because at that mont, she received a prompt—Mission【The Secret Between the Fourth Apostle and the Supre Apostle】completed. She had earned 50 billion XP and 5 Blank Skill Cards.

This mission required her to uncover the truth behind the cooperation between the Fourth Apostle and the Supre Apostle.

She had been ntally prepared to spend a ton of ti and effort completing this task, but the Fourth Apostle had just blurted it all out on its own!

“Guys, does this make any sense?”

“Dammit, so the Supre Apostle’s goal is to beco the Twelfth Apostle? He’s clearly trying to steal my spot!”

“You’re the Twelfth Apostle?”

“I’m the Twelfth Apostle!”

While Bai Fu was getting lost in her chaotic thoughts, the Fourth Apostle could no longer contain its killing intent.

“Since you won’t obediently surrender, I’ll just dismantle you myself and read your mories!”

A terrifying pressure surged like a tidal wave.

Bai Fu glanced at the Fourth Apostle.

Level 265, master of Ethereal Realm Particles, equipped with a Boss Aura that suppresses Psionic Priests… Even if her real body were here, she wouldn’t be able to win, let alone now, when she was only remotely descended onto a True Spirit summon.

“See ya!”

Bai Fu turned and fled.

Her body lted into the night, vanishing into the already murky darkness.

As she ran, she contacted Shadow Foxtail.

“Stop destroying things. The Fourth Apostle is way stronger than expected. His level is only four below the Supre Apostle, but his panel is twice as complex. He might even be stronger than the Supre Apostle!”

“I’ll cover you—run now!”

Though Shadow Foxtail could revive via the Ark of Heaven if she died, avoiding death was still preferable. After all, it saved on recovery resources.

Shadow Foxtail didn’t waste ti with pleasantries. She instantly tapped into her assassin instincts and slipped into the raging psionic vortex outside.

Due to the massive energy fluctuations radiating from the Fourth Apostle, the restrictions of【Suppression】and【Spaceti Freeze】had both been lifted.

The mbers of the Apostolic Holy City, now freed, returned to their posts with a mix of relief and urgency. They began operating various devices, trying to assist the Fourth Apostle in stopping Bai Fu and Shadow Foxtail from escaping.

While pursuing Bai Fu, the Fourth Apostle didn’t forget to sever support for the large-scale secret art【Artificial God】.

“The Supre Apostle tricked —what, I’m not allowed to get so payback?”

Monts later—

At the battleground between the Apostolic Holy City and the Three Universal Civilizations—

The fleets of the Three Universal Civilizations had been mostly wiped out. Half of the transcendent attackers had already fallen. The rest were pondering which pose to die in when—suddenly—the massive Artificial God before them vanished with a ‘pop’.

Everyone on both sides was completely stunned.

“What? The Artificial God disappeared?!”

Even the Supre Apostle, far away, thought he had misheard.

Soon, he received an ergency transmission from Holy Land Star.

“Holy Land Star has been invaded? No wonder the ‘god’ disappeared.”

The Supre Apostle never imagined that it was the Fourth Apostle who had severed the connection. He thought the invasion of Holy Land Star had simply escalated.

“Send in the Ten Saints. Don’t let the intruder get away. I need to find out how they bypassed the psionic defenses I set up!”

The Supre Apostle’s command was transmitted via faster-than-light communications to the idle Saints huddled in their temporary base.

“Damn it! We never get the good stuff, but when it cos to grunt work, they call us. Freaking Starborn nonsense.”

The Saint cursed non-stop, but still obediently accepted the mission.

He was fully onboard the Apostolic Holy City’s ship now—what else could he do but obey?

“Corona, initiate signal silence and full-spectrum surveillance on Holy Land Star!”

Within seconds, Holy Land Star transford from a pilgrimage site into a cosmic prison trapped on a lonely island.

Despite the Fourth Apostle and the Ten Saints responding swiftly, they had still overlooked one thing: the Bai Fu they were dealing with had Void Bloodline and had fully mastered Void Shifting.

“You think just because I can’t beat you, I can’t shake you off?”

Bai Fu curled her lips.

Truthfully, the Fourth Apostle did have abilities that could lock down her Void Shifting, such as the sa【Ethereal Dinsion Descent】she possessed. But unfortunately, in its【Overloaded】state, the Fourth Apostle couldn’t handle delicate skills like that.

A Star Realm Passage suddenly opened in the sky, and Shadow Foxtail stumbled into it.

Bai Fu was about to follow her out, but the next second, she pulled her foot back.

Leave?

Leave, my ass!

Her real body wasn’t even here. She had finally descended upon Holy Land Star of the Apostolic Holy City—if she didn’t wreck the place a bit, she might never get another chance.

“Damn you! Attacking the Explored Universe like this is ssing up my ability to steadily farm XP from Players!”

“I’ll smash this damn statue with my head!”

Though she couldn’t unleash her full power under the suppression aura of the Fourth Apostle, causing so destruction was still well within her reach.

And since the Fourth Apostle realized she was vandalizing and didn’t stop her, she let loose and smashed things to her heart’s content.

This continued until the Saint and Corona arrived.

Bai Fu had no beef with the Saint, but with Corona—it was a different story.

Corona had once launched a remote attack on her, right when she had just been promoted to Sovereign. If not for her【Death Immunity】talent, she might’ve been taken out back then—there would’ve been no glory now.

She had always wanted revenge on Corona, but that guy was a chanic who kept himself well-hidden. Even when he did show up, he stuck to the rear lines. Getting close enough for revenge was damn near impossible.

But today, he had finally co close. The only problem...

Bai Fu looked down at her hands.

In this body, talking about revenge was just a fantasy.

No, wait—

Who said revenge had to be dealt personally?

Couldn’t she just let soone else do the dirty work?

Bai Fu rembered the five Blank Skill Cards she had just received as mission rewards.

Blank Skill Cards could copy any skill from a target whose level didn’t exceed the user’s by more than 15.

If she copied skills from the Saint and Corona… and then used those copied skills to ambush the Fourth Apostle—what would happen?

“Go, my Blank Skill Cards!”
