Who made her an NPC!.

Chapter 308 The Apostle Arrives, Bai Fu's New Personality [4.6k]

The experiment went very smoothly.

The moment the [Gate to Ascension to the Virtual Realm] appeared, Bai Fu received a new game prompt.

[You have unlocked the advanced map [Virtual Realm]]

As an officially designated advanced map, the recommended strategy level for Virtual Realm is 170-275.

Bai Fu's current level can be said to be right in the middle of the recommended level, neither high nor low.

After entering the map, as long as she doesn't act recklessly, she shouldn't be in any danger.

"Are you leaving now?"

Bai Fu looked at Boileau who was standing not far away.

Boileau nodded and said, "Exploring the virtual world is a huge project, and it cannot be accomplished overnight. You don't have to rush into the virtual world this time. If you find anything unusual, please return immediately."

That being said, Bai Fu could tell from the looks of the psychic praying masters around her that they basically didn't take Boileau's words to heart.

This is the virtual realm, the holy place in the hearts of hundreds of millions of psychic prayer masters!
If they can discover something in this holy land, will their strength soar?

Even a veteran superb II like Curse Lord Olsen couldn't help but feel his heart beating faster at this moment.

"set off!"

Someone shouted, and Olsen was the first to walk into the gate of ascension to the virtual realm.

Ten seconds later, all the participants of the plan, including Bai Fu, walked into the door.

Swah——

Bai Fu felt her body and soul go cold at the same time.

When she came to her senses, she had arrived at an unfamiliar starry sky.

"Starry sky?"

Bai Fu was stunned for a moment, wondering if she had been teleported to the wrong place.

She quickly opened the game map.

That’s right, what is written at the top of the map is indeed [Virtual Realm].

Judging from the range of the map fog, the size of the [Virtual Realm] map is definitely larger than the explored universe.

"This [Virtual Realm] seems different from similar places I've seen in other games."

Bai Fu looked around, but did not see Olsen and the others who came in with her, even though the portal to leave the virtual world was clearly behind her.

eccentric.

Could this be some advanced illusion that she couldn't see through?

With doubts in her heart, Bai Fu flew towards the surrounding planets.

From planets to stars, from stars to other planetary systems, she visited dozens of planetary systems in succession, and the more she visited, the more strange it seemed to her.

Every planet or star she passed by was desolate, a desolation completely different from the desolation of those uninhabited planets in the main space.

From her perspective, although the planets in the main space are desolate, they are still "alive". Although these planets rotate, revolve and do other movements in the starry sky like the planets in the main space, they are all "dead".

Bai Fu didn't believe that this was her illusion.

She is already extraordinary, why do so many so-called illusions come from? There must be something wrong when something is abnormal!

Thinking of this, she released a large number of little Bai Fu and asked them to search carefully on various planets to see if they could find any abnormalities.

During this search, she actually found the "relics".

It was a planet with a chaotic surface, as if it had been plowed several times by giant beasts.

In the cracks of the rock strata, Bai Fu saw some stone buildings.

This was an architectural style she had never seen before, but what concerned her was not the style of the buildings, but the fact that in such a harsh environment, these buildings made of very ordinary stones did not show any signs of weathering, as if time had stopped on them.

"Does it mean that time in this world has stopped?"

Bai Fu was stunned.

But if time is stopped, why can these planets move?

"I need to find a real spirit who can speak and ask it."

Speaking of true spirits, Bai Fu suddenly thought of her summoned beast Kabaye. Although Kabaye couldn't speak and didn't seem to have much brains, it should be able to lead the way and help her find other true spirits, right?

She immediately summoned Kabaye.

To her surprise, when she asked Kabaye to lead her to find a psychic creature that could move like itself, Kabaye actually led the way.

They groped in the dead starry sky for more than ten days and finally arrived at a planetary system with obvious traces of artificial creation.

On the fourth planet of this planetary system, Bai Fu found a group of strange-looking true spiritual beings.

She threw an Apostle Vision to the true spirit being walking in front.

[Name]: AA (Apostle Halo Blessing is missing)

[Template]: True Spirit Summoning Life
[Main Occupation]: Apostle Inner Guard Lv19 [+75]

[Secondary Occupation]: None

[Health]: -/-
[Psionic Value]: -/-
【Attributes】: Strength, Agility, Constitution, Intelligence, Spirit, Inspiration

【Skill】:……

【talent】:……

【Favorability】: Never met before (0)

[Danger level]: Green
After reading the feedback panel, Bai Fu was shocked.

"Shit, it has no health bar!"

You have to know that in the game even planets have health bars in the strict sense, but the true spirit summoning life in front of you does not have one.

But no matter how strange it is, one thing can be confirmed, that is, this AA is an NPC template. Being an NPC template means that it can communicate.

Bai Fu landed on the ground and was about to say something when the group of True Spirit Summoning Beings led by AA suddenly screamed.

"Apostle, Apostle, Apostle... Sir, Apostle No. 3?"

They were shouting in a language Bai Fu had never heard before, but she could understand what they were saying.

Apostle number three?

Bai Fu was stunned.

She remembered that the task description for collecting the true spirit remains mentioned that the true spirit remains on Yulia came from Apostle No. 3.

After exclaiming, AA suddenly sniffed.

"Wait a minute, although I can indeed smell the aura of the Third Apostle, it is very faint. It should not be the Third Apostle."

His words drew a rebuttal from the True Spirit Summoning Life next to him: "No, this aura is very faint, but it is indeed emanating from her. She must be the third Apostle!"

"You are wrong. How could the aura of Apostle No. 3 be so weak?"

"I don't know why the aura is so weak, but it must be you."

"It's you!"

"It's you!"

"..."

Looking at the true spirits noisily summoning lives, Bai Fu was speechless for a moment.

She sort of figured out the situation.

She was indeed not the third apostle. The reason why these True Spirit summoned beings could smell the apostle's breath from her was probably because she was bound to Yulia, who had two True Spirit remains. What they smelled was not her breath, but Yulia's.

"These True Spirit summoned beings don't look very smart, so they should be easy to fool."

Thinking of this, Bai Fu coughed lightly, interrupting the fierce quarrel in front of her.

"Can I have a few words?"

Swish swish.

Dozens of eyes were focused on her.

"Some of you say I am Apostle No. 3, and some say I am not. You seem confused and don't know who I am. In fact, I don't know who I am either."

Bai Fu pointed at her head with a look of pain on her face.

"I lost all my memories of the past. When I woke up, I was in a place called the Explored Universe. Since then, there has been a voice in my mind, calling me to go to the Void Realm. So I spent decades and finally came to this world called the Void Realm. I drifted aimlessly here for more than ten days. To be honest, I don't know what I can do here. All I see is the desolate starry sky. Until I met you, I wanted to ask you if you know anything. To my surprise, before I even opened my mouth, you have been arguing about my identity. I..."

The pain on his face gradually turned into excitement.

"I want to ask again, do you really feel a familiar aura from me?"

AA and the other True Spirit summoned beings exchanged a glance, and finally, he nodded: "I really feel it."

"Great!" Bai Fu was overjoyed. "Can you tell me about the Void Realm and the situation of the Apostle No. 3 you mentioned? Maybe I can remember something."

AA did not rush to answer, but pulled the other true spirits and summoned lives to a far place.

They were communicating using psychic energy fluctuations, and they didn't know that everything they said was detected by Bai Fu.

In fact, they were just arguing about whether to say it or not.

AA was still skeptical, but after listening to Bai Fu's nonsense, the other True Spirit Summoning Life became more and more certain that Bai Fu was the third Apostle.

"At this rate, there is no mistake... Apostle No. 3 must have been successfully born into a new generation!"

Dozens of people gathered together to discuss for a long time, and finally decided to talk to Bai Fu about the situation of the Void Realm and Apostle No. 3.

"Since you can come here from the explored universe, you should know that there are many different space dimensions outside the explored universe, right?" AA asked back.

Bai Fu said, "I know."

AA explained: "The virtual world is an alien space dimension that is independent of the main universe, but it is different from ordinary alien spaces. It is separated from the main universe."

Strip?

Bai Fu suddenly felt that this wording was familiar.

"Before being stripped away, the Void Realm was once a territory ruled by a very powerful cosmic civilization in the main universe. The power used by this cosmic civilization was psychic energy and dark energy."

"Later, for unknown reasons, this civilization was destroyed, and everything that remained of this civilization was stripped away from the main universe, becoming what it is today."

"But it is worth mentioning that this stripping does not mean to literally [cut off] a part of the main universe and banish it to an alternate dimension. In fact, what is stripped is only [a certain moment] of that cosmic civilization. How should I describe it? A projection. Yes, the virtual world is a projection of a certain moment after the destruction of that civilization. This projection has become a very strange [real existence] because of the support of psychic energy and dark energy."

Bai Fu was shocked.

No wonder she felt that the planets she saw in the virtual world were all dead, and no wonder the stone buildings she saw would not weather. It turned out that all of these were projections.

But compared to projection, she is more concerned about [stripping].

After AA's explanation, she finally understood why she felt this word was familiar. Isn't this very similar to the void dimension?

She had previously raided Rufus' base and obtained a large amount of information about the void from the base. Those materials said that the void dimension was a cosmic civilization that was exiled to an alien dimension.

The void is stripped away, the virtual realm is also stripped away, then what about other alien space dimensions connected to the main universe?
For example, the demon dimension that breeds demonic disasters, and the nightmare dimension that gives birth to dream monsters.

If these different spatial dimensions are exiled just like the void and the virtual realm, then what exactly exiles them?
An existence that can defeat and exile cosmic civilizations...

Bai Fu felt terrified just thinking about it.

Seeing Bai Fu's expression change slightly, AA asked, "Did you remember something?"

Bai Fu said: "A little bit, very blurry."

AA did not continue to ask, but talked about other information: "Because the virtual world is essentially just a [projection] of a certain moment, therefore, everything in the virtual world, including the apostles, cannot grow with the passage of time, because in the virtual world, there is no time defined by the main universe. When the virtual world was first born, there were only a few survivors from the once powerful cosmic civilization in such a huge space."

"These survivors were not all from the same group. They fought among themselves. The eleven who survived became what is traditionally called apostles in the Void Realm. From Apostle No. 1 to Apostle No. 11, each apostle has his own special qualities. Apostle No. 1 is recognized as the strongest apostle. He possesses unrivaled power and is even called the God of the Void Realm. It is he who maintains the stability of the Void Realm and restores peace to it."

"The apostles felt that life in the virtual world was boring, so they created a large number of true spiritual beings. We are the true spiritual beings created by Apostle No. 3."

"Then, after an unknown amount of time, the Apostle No. 1, who possessed the strongest power, suddenly disappeared. No one knew where he went. Some true spirits said that he went to the main universe to change the virtual world. In short, as soon as he disappeared, the virtual world became chaotic again."

"Some apostles used some unknown method to leave the virtual realm, and some apostles fought each other."

"Apostle No. 3 left us after bringing us here. He said he was going to the main universe to find a way to get out of the projection. We haven't seen him since then."

AA's eyes were filled with sadness.

He was created by Apostle No. 3. Apostle No. 3 was God and his parents to him. Now that God (parents) was gone, how could he not be sad?

Bai Fu was thoughtful: "Do you know how many years ago Apostle No. 1 disappeared?"

AA shook his head: "We have no idea of ​​the specific time you are talking about."

Bai Fu asked again: "Then do you know where the other apostles who left the Void Realm went?"

AA said: "Apostle No. 9 seems to have been summoned by a psychic praying master of Titan Industries, and Apostle No. 4 seems to have gone to a place called the Holy City of Apostles. I don't know about the others."

"..."

The amount of information was a bit overwhelming, and Bai Fu felt that she needed to take a break.

Is Apostle No. 9 the apostle summoned by the sacrificial ritual that the painter mentioned? If she remembered correctly, the painter's hometown, the Seabuckthorn Supercluster, is right between the Reborn Empire and Titan Industries?
Also, the Apostle Holy City is so powerful now, is it related to the fourth apostle?

If that's the case, it seems a little unsafe to let Sui Xi continue to stay in the Apostle Holy City. What if she meets Apostle No. 4, the real Apostle...

Wait, it seems that the problem is not that big.

Oh, Apostle Number Four, you said you are an apostle, are you? I am the real apostle. I can guide people to progress and evolve. Can you?

To tell you the truth, I am not only an apostle, I am also the number one apostle, the God of the Void Realm.

Do not believe?

Look, Apostle No. 3, Julia, follows me. If I’m not Apostle No. 1, then who is?
When it comes to fooling people, Bai Fu is not afraid of anyone.

Before, she was worried that the God of the Void Realm was really a god, so she didn’t dare to speak carelessly for fear of being “punished by God”.

Now that she knows that the God of the Void Realm is not a real god, she will have to try her best to deceive others just like she did when she stole the title of the Lord of the Dark Night, and create a new persona of "The Reincarnation of the God of the Void Realm" for herself.

Character setting is really useful!
"Speaking of which..."

Bai Fu suddenly thought of what Host Guanghui said during the last meeting at the Psychic Research Center.

Guanghui said that more than fifty years ago, a psychic researcher in the Empire accidentally discovered that a constant in the dark energy research equation had mutated.

The reason why the constants mutated must be because a huge change occurred in the virtual realm. Could that change be the disappearance of Apostle No. 1?

The more Bai Fu thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

The question now is, where did Apostle No. 1 go, and is he related to the main storyline?
At this time, she received a new game prompt——

[Above the Stars Plot Exploration +0.3%]

"The story exploration of the entire game has increased by 0.3% at once?"

Bai Fu was stunned for a moment, then she reacted immediately.

There is no doubt that the movements of Apostle No. 1 must be related to the main storyline of the game!

……

Just as Bai Fu was talking to AA, in the no-man's land between the Reborn Empire and the Supernova Legion, in the laboratory of a base of the Revolutionary Army's Shadow Corps, a young man lying on the observation platform suddenly opened his eyes.

"Someone has entered the virtual realm!"

The news spread to the ears of the painter and the tiger-headed man at lightning speed.
