reincarnation npc, but tomorrow's ark

It seems like a strange person has infiltrated the group.

Oh, wait, Susuluo is a college student, right?

How did you all get in together?

But it doesn't matter anyway, this combination seems to be very popular among players, even more so than Baiye.

Indeed, becoming stronger is only temporary, but being cute is true justice.

Incidentally, as Bai Ye gradually reduced his public appearances, his popularity also gradually declined, but the number of memes about him increased.

That's fine too. Bai Ye doesn't want to be constantly under the spotlight, or he'll be surrounded by players no matter where he goes.

Bai Ye hopes that players will come to understand that his appearance signifies a major event. It's best not to bother him with trivial matters.

Putting aside this guy who crossed the river and burned the bridge, the grand finale of the Mid-Autumn Festival Gala will probably be Amiya's performance.

It is said that in Letania, Originium Arts and Art have similar concepts, and therefore music in this world is also a kind of magic.

Bai Ye watched Amiya. Unlike the other audience members, he had some understanding of the girl's demonic power, and therefore paid special attention to Amiya's performance.

However, it turned out that he was overthinking it; Amiya was just performing ordinary music.

……

"Miss Goredia, aren't you going to dance with your teammates?"

After the party, it's time for the operators and players to entertain themselves.

Some of the Great Yan officers suddenly started crying while drinking.

At the chaotic party, Bai Ye found Gretia sitting in the corner.

"Let them practice more."

Goredia coldly watched the deep-sea hunters dancing.

Perhaps because she hadn't jumped in a long time, Skadi kept stepping on Specter's skirt.

Bai Ye watched with amusement, not caring at all.

However, Goredia's eyes were full of disdain, as if she were wondering what was wrong with these hunters.

The two sat quietly, watching Skadi and Specter dance.

Suddenly, Goredia spoke up, "Thank you."

"Ok?"

Bai Ye turned his head, only to see that face still full of frost.

It was as if she hadn't said anything at all, and it was just Bai Ye's illusion.

Chapter Eight Dancing Together

(I went to the gym today, but I can't lift my arms. I feel like a rusty tin man.)

-------------------------------------

Goredia said something out of the blue.

Bai Ye didn't quite understand.

However, something even more unexpected happened soon afterward.

"Dance with me."

As she spoke, Goredia suddenly stood up from her chair.

"??"

Bai Ye didn't know what was wrong with this deep-sea hunter. However, he didn't refuse.

Grandia stood in front of Bai Ye, half a head taller than him. Moreover, she was tall and slender, and her high position gave her an outstanding aura, making her a completely different kind of intimidating presence.

Moreover, Bai Ye had completely grasped the physical condition of Skadi and Specter. After working day and night to develop and become familiar with them, they got along extremely well. Even when facing Specter in a berserk state, he did not feel any pressure.

However, Goredia was a stranger to him, and Bai Ye had never danced before, so he was a little reserved.

“Relax, dancing isn’t difficult,” said Greta, taking White Night’s hand.

"Don't be misled by those two idiots. As hunters, they can't even dance and they step on other people. It's really embarrassing."

Clearly, Goredia had also witnessed the situation of the two deep-sea hunters.

Her face turned dark.

So embarrassing.

She simply couldn't understand what had happened to these two once-excellent hunters.

Pulling White Night by her side, Goredia and he began dancing at a speed far exceeding that of ordinary people.

Although the two were not slow, and even seemed a bit wild compared to others, Bai Ye knew that they were not touching anyone else, rotating and sliding within a very small area.

Gradually, he began to understand what Greta was trying to express.

Although she wasn't talkative, she was indeed a very good teacher. She was teaching Bai Ye a new fighting footwork.

Goredia doesn't like to move on land because the lack of water makes her skin dry and hinders her performance.

However, this does not mean she cannot move.

On the contrary, she has an advantage over Bai Ye in how to use her physical advantages to move.

Without any aids, she can break the sound barrier in an instant.

She must have already noticed Bai Ye's problem.

The flaw of Baiye is that she lacks experience, or rather, she is too experienced.

This might sound contradictory and nonsensical. Bai Ye's combat experience is indeed extensive. As a player, he is constantly fighting or preparing for battle. He knows exactly how to use his body.

However, his physical attributes weren't nearly as formidable in the past, with all three stats exceeding 80—an almost impossible feat for ordinary players. Players could only achieve this through equipment. Back when he was a player, Bai Ye's complete form wasn't bare-bones; he had specially crafted power armor to enhance his mental reaction speed, strength, and agility.

Where else can you find someone as physically robust as him, capable of wrestling and playing with deep-sea hunters with their bare hands?

Therefore, he doesn't actually have a complete and systematic experience to leverage the advantages of his existing attributes.

His power exertion habits, techniques, and fighting methods are all from the past, belonging to mortals; but now, he has become extraordinary, yet he is still applying his past experiences.

He had previously studied with Skadi and Specter, but there are still significant shortcomings.

"Remember my steps and how I exert force."

Goredia pulled Bai Ye close and whispered in his ear.

Goredia is a top student, so she always strives to do her best in everything she does—whether it's studying, conducting research, or fighting.

Perhaps at first she just wanted to get her mother's attention, or perhaps she was used to holding herself to high standards because of her family background, but later it became an instinct.

She felt that Bai Ye's conditions were too good, but he was not able to make full use of his advantages.

"Remember, your body is strong, that's pure strength, but you focus too much on techniques in every battle, that's something only the weak would think about."

"Don't worry too much about how your opponent will strike; you can cut him down along with his sword and his body."

Goredia kept whispering her thoughts in White Night's ear.

At the same time, the two danced faster and faster. But strangely, those around them seemed completely oblivious to this.

Because they were moving too fast, exceeding the ability of the normal human eye to perceive them; and the wind generated by their movements was controlled by Bai Ye around his body.

This is a silent storm.

Of course, there were still people who saw it.

Specter's high heels stepped on Skadi's foot, and Skadi stopped, but Specter froze in place.

At first, Titi didn't notice, but following Ghost Shark's gaze, she turned her head and saw White Night and Grandia.

"The captain is actually dancing with Bai Ye... When did they get so close?!" Laurentina exclaimed in disbelief.

"Haven't things always been good?" Skadi tilted her head. "The Deepsea Hunter and White Night have always had a good relationship."

“This is us, not the captain—didn’t you realize that before? The captain is furious,” Laurentina explained patiently.

However, Skadi shook her head.

She felt that the second captain wasn't as bad as Shark had described. He'd been peeking and eavesdropping at the door earlier!

Ghost Shark looked at Silly Dee with a look of utter disappointment.

"No wonder you were so easily fooled, you're so naive... How come I never noticed you before?"

Skadi blinked. "My captain has never said anything like that to me."

"Because you were trained by him, right... Third Captain, no offense, but now I see, the whole story is here!"

Ghost Shark suddenly realized.

Skadi still looked completely bewildered.

Perhaps she's not really good at these common-sense things, compared to fighting.

However, with Bai Ye around, there's no problem.

She doesn't need to think about these messy things at all, so she's happy every day.

"Luckily, Bai Ye isn't a bad person, otherwise you would have been sold off by him and would still be helping him count the money..." Laurentina rubbed her forehead.

"If he were a bad guy, he would have been cleaved in two long ago."

Incidentally, although she's rather simple-minded, Skadi has a very accurate intuition and is very sensitive to malice. So even in her simple-minded state, people on land have never been able to harm her.

Laurentina ignored Skadi and instead looked at the fast-moving White Night and Gladys in the distance, and suddenly laughed.

Chapter Nine: Players in the Core City

Goredia may be a little difficult to get along with, but if she wants to teach well, she is an excellent teacher.

No Deepsea Hunter is born a warrior. Skadi is an ordinary person, Laurentina aspires to be an artist, and Grandia is a Technologist.

However, once the modification surgery was completed, they were all soldiers.

Of course, Goredia's ability to become captain was not solely due to her status—the honorary legion commander and chief war architect of the Agor military group "Deep Sea Hunters".

Yes, that is a very important reason.

However, the Deep Sea Hunters still let strength speak for itself, and the reason why Grandia was able to become the second captain is naturally because she is very good at fighting.

Although Bai Ye possesses bug-level swordsmanship and is invincible in pure physical sword fighting, there are indeed some aspects of Goredia that Bai Ye could learn from.

In this frenzied and intense dance, Bai Ye slowly followed the rhythm and steps of Goredia and learned what she wanted to teach her.

Goredia was somewhat surprised; Bai Ye's learning speed far exceeded her expectations. She wished the other deep-sea hunters were this intelligent…

Goredia couldn't help but imagine that if there had been a hunter like White Night in Team Five at that time, perhaps the final outcome of that great battle could have been rewritten.

Instead of what they are doing now, where they have lost all their hunters and are left with only three, separated from them by the Sea King in the deep sea.

"Is it over?" Bai Ye saw that Gretia had gradually slowed down, and her movements had become calm and elegant.

“Now that you’ve learned it, there’s no need for me to continue teaching… However, you still need to improve your taste. As a deep-sea hunter, you can’t do without dancing.” With that, Goredia began a new lesson.

Dance and music are the unique romance of the deep-sea hunters. In the deep sea, ordinary sounds cannot be transmitted, so only ultrasound and infrasound can be used. Dance is the movement of battle. Bai Ye had some exposure to it when learning underwater warfare, but he was not proficient.

however--

"I'm not a deep-sea hunter... I can learn from Laurentina..." Bai Ye couldn't help but complain.

"Shut up!" If it weren't for mentioning that name, things would have been fine, but as soon as Bai Ye finished speaking, Geletia's face darkened. "Don't think I don't know how you and she could have studied properly. You ended up learning in bed, didn't you?"

"Huh?!" Bai Ye was speechless at Gretia's words.

He never expected this guy to suddenly say something like that.

“Ahem—it was Skadi who told me.” Facing Bai Ye’s gaze, Goredia answered expressionlessly and flawlessly.

Bai Ye was skeptical. He felt that this guy had been acting strangely lately, but he couldn't find any evidence.

However, Bai Ye didn't delve into it further and instead started learning from Gretia.

For a martial arts expert like Bai Ye, dancing isn't actually difficult, especially since he had some prior experience with it. Although he hadn't studied it in detail due to a lack of interest, he still had a certain foundation.
