When You Become an NPC That Might Die Any Moment in the Novice Village
Chapter 1000 - 357: BOSS Training, Void Twins
Bai Fu wandered with Lupus in the void for several laps, but couldn't find the remaining two Void Lords.
It's unknown whether they sensed danger and hid, or if they perished early in the massive assault of the Origins Agreement.
The once bustling void, in just ten days, had become as desolate as a mortuary.
With the Lord dead, the lower Void Life scattered completely, disappearing without a trace.
Due to time constraints, Bai Fu didn't continue searching but had Black Fu take the two newly acquired Void Lord Cores back to the Superpower Garden immediately.
Yes.
Two pieces.
She pretended to swallow one core whole in front of Lupus, but it was just to scare the restless Lupus, and she didn't actually digest it.
It's not that she couldn't digest it.
With the guidance of the game, even if there were two more Void Lord Cores, she could digest them without side effects; at most, it would just take more time and resources.
But in her current state, even if she digested two more Void Lord Cores, the increase in power wouldn't be significant. The Racial Potential Score might increase by 0.2, but that would be worth celebrating, and new talents or skills were unlikely.
Considering this, Bai Fu thought it would be better to give the Void Lord Cores to Fei Ye and Jin Lu rather than waste them on herself.
Fei Ye and Jin Lu have now advanced to Dominators, and under her guidance, there's a high probability they could digest the Void Lord Cores, thus adding two more highly potential Super Supremes to the Silent Court.
"Calling me over in such a hurry, could it be that you can't hold it in? If I remember correctly, we just sparred a few hours ago."
Fei Ye avoided Aijie's gaze, sneaking into Bai Fu's room quietly.
Bai Fu stretched out her right hand, with two shiny, round Void Lord Cores lying in her palm.
Just as she was about to explain, Fei Ye interrupted: "So you found new gadgets? But these two little fellows don't seem any different from the previous gadgets. How do you use them? Should I use them or should you? Or do we take one each?"
Stop, stop.
What are you thinking?
Can you be a bit more righteous like me, and not think about discussing the Dao, studying relative motion, and treating everything as experimental tools all day long!
[○・`Д´・○]
Bai Fu couldn't help but roll her eyes: "These are Void Lord Cores, to be used, not to be used!"
"I..."
Fei Ye's face flushed instantly, her mind filled with her sister Jin Lu's mocking voice. She opened her mouth to say something, but eventually held it back.
Alright, alright, let's just say I covet your body!
Bai Fu shoved the Void Lord Core into Fei Ye's hand: "Here you go."
Fei Ye curiously fiddled with the round sphere in her hand: "Where did you get this? Compared to my sister and me, you need them more, right?"
"I'm already a Void Lord, so they're useless to me. Now, without further ado, let me help you two digest these cores."
At Bai Fu's urging, Fei Ye swallowed both cores in succession.
"It's so full, it feels like my stomach is stuffed to the brim, about to burst any moment."
Fei Ye's face turned pale as paper, and pain inadvertently appeared on her face.
"Don't worry, with me here, the pain will be gone soon."
Having already digested one Void Lord Core, Bai Fu was practically an old hand.
With her hands-on guidance and the assistance of numerous auxiliary tools, Fei Ye quickly got rid of the pain caused by the massive influx of Void Energy into her body.
Seeing Fei Ye had settled into her state, Bai Fu turned her attention to Fei Ye's sister, Jin Lu.
"You're purely a Soul Body, so the pain you endure might be even more intense than Fei Ye's..."
"I'm already prepared."
"Then I'll start now."
The Void Lord Core not only contains the vast majority of a Void Lord's power but also the Void Lord's 'gene.'
Once Jin Lu successfully fuses with the Void Lord Core, she will escape the current situation of having to share a body with Fei Ye and, through the Void 'gene,' create a body of her own.
She has long been accustomed to sharing a body with Fei Ye, but having her own body would still feel different.
At least this way, she wouldn't have to play co-op games with Fei Ye; she could start a game with Bai Fu directly, offline.
Cough, cough.
Jin Lu focused on fusing with the Void Lord Core.
This process was extremely slow.
After all, both her and Fei Ye's powers were still too low, of course, this low is compared to a Void Lord.
Bai Fu didn't dare to accelerate the process, fearing she might accidentally burst them.
However, despite Bai Fu's caution, an unexpected incident occurred.
[Near-Phase Fusion]
The sudden red warning startled Bai Fu.
She saw the cores each Fei Ye and Jin Lu were fusing with were uncontrollably drawing closer, and even her full power as a Void Lord couldn't stop it.
Directly destroying the Void Lord Cores?
That's quite risky too!
Bai Fu quickly opened the explanation for [Near-Phase Fusion].
[After integrating Fei Ye and Jin Lu's traits, a mysterious resonance occurred between the two Void Lord Cores. Being originally from the same source, they now share a connection beyond time and space.]
[Warning, warning, Special World Boss (Explored Universe Exclusive) [Void Twins (Void Lord Infants)] is being nurtured]
"Hmm?"
Bai Fu was momentarily stunned.
This doesn't seem like a bad thing?
Before becoming a [Boss of the End], her power level was classified as [World Boss (Explored Universe Exclusive)].
Bai Fu reached out again to tap on the [Void Twins] entry.
[Void Twins (Void Lord Infants)]: They appear to be two separate beings, but in reality, they are a very special form of Void Life. The entwined twins perfectly fuse the "Void" trait and "Space" trait of Void Power, possessing higher potential than ordinary Void Lords.
Bai Fu let out a sigh of relief.
This unexpected turn wasn't a bad thing; it was actually a delightful surprise.
The power unleashed when Fei Ye and Jin Lu combined into the Void Twins wasn't simply 1 + 1 = 2.
Because they cleverly combined the "Void" and "Space" traits of Void Power, their efficiency in drawing power from the Void Lord Core would be far greater than other Void Lords, so the power released after their fusion would be far greater than 2!
Moreover, the twin trait allows them to create ultra-long-distance Void Channels through Void Sensing, a distance even farther than the jump distance of the Apostle Holy City's Divine Statue Level Mothership, something other Void Lords absolutely cannot achieve.
"What a stroke of luck!"
Bai Fu was overjoyed, feeling happier than unexpectedly combining a Colorful Prayer Card.
She already started fantasizing about gathering the remaining Void Lord Cores and feeding them all to Fei Ye and Jin Lu to cultivate a Void Emperor that would dominate Void history.
Since learning about the Harvesters' existence, she felt a strong urge to enhance her own and her companions' powers.
She wasn't confident about breaking the Harvester's ending, but having power when the Harvesters descend would be more reassuring than having none.
Three days later.
Fei Ye and Jin Lu successfully completed the digestion and absorption of the Void Lord Core.
This speed was much faster than Bai Fu had anticipated.
According to her original plan, this digestion would last more than a month.
The sudden increase in speed was all thanks to [Near-Phase Fusion].
The active fusion of the two cores allowed Fei Ye and Jin Lu to easily grasp the core, though it would still take a long time for them to fully control the core's power.
"This..."
In the room.
Fei Ye and Jin Lu looked at each other in disbelief.
They hadn't expected things to turn out this way.
"Ahem, there was a little accident, but becoming the Void Twins is more beneficial than detrimental for you two. The advantage, well, your power has increased, but most importantly, unless an enemy kills you both simultaneously in a short time, either of you can reconstruct the other using your 'body'. As for the disadvantage..."
Bai Fu pondered for a moment, which made Fei Ye and Jin Lu a bit nervous.
"I've thought it over carefully, and there doesn't seem to be any downside. Perhaps the biggest downside is that you two will have to share your senses from now on, which shouldn't be hard to overcome."
What?
Fei Ye and Jin Lu breathed a sigh of relief.
Ha.
They thought it was going to be something serious.
Sensory sharing isn't a disadvantage at all, it's actually fantastic!
Why not take advantage of the timing and try out the benefits of sensory sharing now!
Fei Ye and Jin Lu exchanged a glance and launched a pincer attack on Bai Fu.
...
Evening.
Superpower Garden.
Aijie rested her chin on her hand: "These days, Mother's complexion seems to be getting better, her cheeks are so rosy they look like they could drip water. I'm convinced that as long as I take care of her for a while longer, she'll definitely recover. Mommy Julia, it's all thanks to you. If you hadn't reminded me, I wouldn't have thought of this method."
Ah hahahaha, is that so? Anyway... keep it up.
Julia discreetly wiped away some sweat.
After a moment, Aijie spoke again: "Mommy Julia, do you think that once Mother recovers, I'll truly be able to gain Aunt An Ya and Aunt Fei Ye's recognition?"
Julia: "..."
Well... you might be able to gain their recognition.
After all, if it weren't for wanting to secretly learn the knowledge you have, Bai Fu wouldn't need to play dumb, and if Bai Fu didn't play dumb, she wouldn't stay in the Superpower Garden, and if Bai Fu didn't stay there, An Ya and the others wouldn't have a chance for daily academic exchanges.
"Can I really gain recognition? That's great!"
Aijie clapped her hands excitedly.
She sat by the window, the sunlight cast on her pale face, giving the happiness on her face a golden glow, making people feel dazed.
After finally sending Aijie away, Julia quickly went up and gave Bai Fu a punch.
"Stop pretending, have you thought about how to deal with the memory-recovered Aijie?"
Bai Fu waved her hand: "As if I haven't planned for this? Rest assured, nothing will go wrong!"
It better be just like that.
Julia: "How long do you plan to keep up the act?"
Bai Fu: "Just these few days. An hour ago I received news from the Rebirth Empire side. The Apostle Holy City's fleet is once again attacking the outposts and frontline bases established by the three cosmic-level civilizations after taking a long detour. This time, because they had a lot more preparation time, the three cosmic-level civilizations didn't suffer much, but all this is temporary. Given the Apostle Holy City's power, it's only a matter of time before the three cosmic-level civilizations are defeated. I must find a way to delay their retreat as much as possible."
Julia: "Need my help?"
"This time, you might need to fight alongside me. This battle can't drag on. The longer it drags on, the more likely the Origins Agreement, who's now watching, will get involved. We have to break up the Apostle Holy City while the Origins Agreement is still unaware, so we have enough time and energy to turn towards the Origins Agreement later."
Bai Fu's expression gradually turned serious.
She hasn't been idly busy these days.
Her actions related to the Void, and her efforts to help Fei Ye and Jin Lu enhance their powers, were all preparations for the total assault on the Apostle Holy City—
Using Fei Ye and Jin Lu's abilities to open a direct path to the Holy Land Star and seize the last piece of the third angel envoy's True Spirit Relics hidden by the Supreme Divine Disciple!
If this operation goes smoothly, she won't have to worry about the Apostle Holy City anymore.
Under Bai Fu's guidance, Julia began preparing for the operation.
Just as they were about to contact the three cosmic-level civilizations to have them provide cover, an urgent message suddenly came through from Litt.
"Just now, Sen Lan contacted me, saying the Supreme Divine Disciple has fallen out with the Fourth Angel Envoy."
"Oh?"
