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

It's all over now!

When countless insects suddenly rushed in through the blasted entrance of the second defensive line, despair was not only felt by Manu but also by Holt's subordinates.

An hour earlier, the message Holt had conveyed to them was—

"It's stable, completely stable, we'll soon get the whereabouts of the mother from Bai Fu, then all we have to do is wait for the Biological Battleships of the Dark Domain Insect Clan to launch their attack, and we can take the chance to leave Heavenly Lake Star."

But the developments directly overwhelmed them.

Looking at the distant screaming insects and the communicator that had lost its link, Holt's subordinates' brains trembled.

Brother, so this is your definition of stable?

This is way too stable!

With Holt dead, there was a high chance that they would be exposed; even if they were incredibly lucky not to be exposed, with the insects suddenly having burst in, could they really survive in this completely uncontrolled flood disaster?

Catastrophe is merciless, they were not like Holt, who had the privilege to contact headquarters in an emergency and persuade the Brain Worm to spare their lives.

"What a crappy idea king, what Star of Tomorrow of Secret Tower, I damn..."

"What did Holt mean before he died when he said Bai Fu was not a human, could it signify that Bai Fu is some kind of special being?"

"Who knows, is now the time to think about this? I need to get out of here quickly, I don't want to be assimilated by those damn insects."

In the chaos, Holt's subordinates "split", some stiffened their heads and stood still, while others swiftly climbed aboard the spaceship they had arrived in, wanting to take the opportunity to escape.

They were gambling, but obviously, they lost the bet.

Fear and unease did not cause Manu to lose his decisiveness but instead made him even more resolute.

Upon discovering that a spaceship was trying to escape, he immediately ordered the tower to signal for the spaceship to stop immediately. Receiving no response, he didn't hesitate for a moment to issue an attack command.

On the ground, dozens of guns roared in unison, a small transport ship couldn't withstand such an attack, and it was quickly brought down in two or three hits, with everyone on the spaceship dying in the explosion.

Flames fell from the sky, marking the official start of a new round of the Great Battle with the Dark Domain Insect Clan.

This round of battle continued from noon until midnight. Despite the Star Network Community displaying an iron-willed fighting spirit, after a breach appeared in the barrier, facing the fearless assault of the Dark Domain Insect Clan, the group still had to gradually retreat until they withdrew into the last defensive line and only managed to curb the assault momentum of the Dark Domain Insect Clan with countless laser nets and specially made chemical bombs.

"This round of attacks is almost over."

Manu stood on the last Mechanical City Wall, looking at the insects crawling on the scorched earth, and couldn't help but sigh lightly.

Around him, aside from those S-class Superpower Users, everyone else, whether standing or sitting, looked very pale.

The sudden appearance of a mole, leading to what should have been a sustainable second defensive line being breached in just one day – how could they possibly be happy?

Now, with more than five days left until the Task ends, they truly couldn't figure out how to hold out for five days with this last defensive line.

And that wasn't the only bad part.

The mole who opened fire admitted very willingly when captured that he was a mole from the Secret Tower, but his admission wasn't because he was honest; he was deliberately destroying the morale of the Star Network Community, as he shouted "Secret Tower will prevail, Star Network Community will fail" and laughed saying "Do you really think I am the only mole Secret Tower has placed on Heavenly Lake Star?"

This combination directly scattered the already low morale of the defending side even more.

Yes, what if there are other moles? What if other moles come out to disrupt their resistance?

Amid the gloom, Manu walked up to Bai Fu.

"The communicator from your Titan Warhammer has been decoded, and we have marked everyone who has been in contact with him; those on Heavenly Lake Star have all been captured, those not here will have to wait."

He handed a list to Bai Fu.

Bai Fu quickly scanned it, "There are media people too?"

Manu nodded, "He contacted several news media, and even temporarily hired a bunch of trolls to spread negative information about you, intentionally smearing your reputation."

Holy shit, poet hold!

Bai Fu was stunned.

Thank goodness she preserved the Titan Warhammer's communicator and got the evidence from it; otherwise, who knows how many Little Heizis would emerge to smear her.

Now, with the evidence, she could fiercely smack the faces of those who smeared her.

Joking aside, in the end, this world belongs to Bai!

"Right."

Seeing Manu approaching, Bai Fu quickly asked if the Advanced Knowledge passed by Digging Girl was given by the Star Network Community, and to her surprise, Manu knew nothing about it.

What? It's not from you guys, then who gave it?

Bai Fu was confused. Well, she'd ask Digging Girl when they met.

This time, she really had to thank the kind person who sent the Advanced Knowledge; otherwise, her newly set up Prayer Card Assembly Line would have been wrecked by the Titan Warhammer, and she definitely wouldn't have obtained the evidence of the Titan Warhammer hiring trolls to smear her; without this evidence, the Little Heizis would've run wild.

Though she didn't know who the kind person was, she might as well wish him a long life!
