Chapter 137: The Resourceful Yulia, Bai Fu Becomes the Center of the World [6k]

As soon as Yulia approached, Bai Fu knew she was about to be drained.

The sudden squeezing sensation made her mind uncontrollably blurt out:

Oh my god!

Although she had long known that Yulia was broad-minded, she hadn’t expected Yulia to still be holding back.

What did this woman eat to grow so strong? Is she cheating?

Bai Fu had no time to think about this question.

A few seconds after their touch, she realized her spirit energy bar started rising along with the cool energy transmitted from Yulia.

“+10”, “+10″…

To be honest, this time the mana replenishment was much slower than when they were outside the main base of the Truth Society.

She wasn’t sure if Yulia was already weak, or if she was deliberately controlling the speed of the spirit energy transfer.

Bai Fu, who was entangled, didn’t know and couldn’t ask, so she could only focus on feeling this special process of mana replenishment.

This was a process of tugging and entanglement, and it took two whole minutes before the rise in her spirit energy bar finally stopped.

Yulia leaned her head slightly back, and compared to before, her skin was even paler, only her cheeks and eyes looked slightly moist.

“Is it full?”

“It’s already overflowing.”

“How fast?” Yulia’s eyes revealed undeniable surprise.

Bai Fu rolled her eyes, “I told you I basically have no problem, but you wouldn’t believe me. Alright, let go first, or you’ll pinch me until I swell.”

“I can’t. I’m completely drained now, my legs are sore, I can’t stand without leaning on you. Let me rest first, doing this is too exhausting.”

Seemingly to prove her words, Yulia leaned heavily against Bai Fu.

Bai Fu: “…”

Could there be many places on me for you to lean on? Why pinch my butt?

“One more thing, is there a need for verbal sparring when transferring spirit energy?”

“Isn’t it your fault first?”

“?”

Bai Fu suspected her memory was messed up.

No way, how did it become my fault first? Isn’t it yours?

What kind of person would immediately bite back like that!

Yulia weakly said, “Stop thinking nonsense. I am a doctor, you are the patient. It’s just part of the treatment for rehabilitation.”

Bai Fu stared seriously at Yulia, “This is my first time.”

“Mine too,” Yulia replied coldly.

Bai Fu said, “Can’t spirit energy be transferred through blood?”

“I’m afraid of pain, I don’t want to prick my fingers again. Pain reminds me of being trapped in the laboratory, having my spirit energy drained. Just now it was an emergency, so I let you drink my blood. Now the situation isn’t urgent, so we use a simpler method.”

Bai Fu was stunned.

She felt that drinking blood seemed simpler, but Yulia’s words did make some sense. She silently gave Yulia an evaluation—

Resourceful woman!

Luckily, she was more skilled, having studied countless romance dramas and novels since she was young, otherwise she might have been manipulated by the cunning Yulia.

“Wait until we get in the car to sleep. Let me help you put your shoes on first.”

Bai Fu placed Yulia back in the chair and picked up the shoes that had been kicked away.

She gently held Yulia’s heel and slipped the shoe on while thinking about the problem.

If possible, she hoped Yulia would join the Silent Courtyard like Elder Nissen and become her assistant.

Yulia had outstanding abilities throughout the Source Star, and her potential was undoubtedly top-notch due to her unawakened template of the True Spirit Child. Her role in the game’s original storyline was also high, if she agreed to join the Silent Courtyard…

“Then my self-created main quest plan will go more smoothly.”

If Yulia refused to join the Silent Courtyard, then so be it. Could she be imprisoned?

Bai Fu wasn’t a brute; she didn’t like using force unless absolutely necessary.

“Let’s wait until we return to Bai Fu Town to ask. Whether she joins the Silent Courtyard or not, I’ll continue to exploit her resources.”

The regional main quest in the Goli Desert, [“The Watcher’s Lament”], had six branches. Bai Fu completed three of them, leaving three remaining: [“Order Guardian”], [“Ideal State”], and [“Yulia’s Secret”].

The first two branches could be settled anytime, and the third branch required her to investigate the source of Yulia’s power. She had been eager for this task, especially after completing the rescue branch, where she anticipated the rewards even more.

Would the game give her another chance to drain Yulia?

This made her look forward to it!

At this moment, Yulia’s voice suddenly echoed in Bai Fu’s ear.

“Why are you staring at my feet? Is something wrong with them?”

Bullshit, who’s staring at your feet? I’m clearly looking at the quest panel!

Bai Fu quickly helped Yulia put on her shoes and carried her out of the room. She needed to find a vehicle to transport the data collected by He Fu.

When she returned to the surface, she suddenly saw a familiar face.

“Fu Fu!”

From a military truck, Tai Ergen poked his head out from the driver’s seat and waved continuously.

Bai Fu walked over and noticed that Tai Ergen wasn’t alone; there were other players from the Truth Society on the truck.

“Why are you here?”

Tai Ergen hurriedly explained the ins and outs of the situation, including how he and his team had bombed the main control room of the A sector of the main base.

Bai Fu suddenly understood, “So it was you guys who caused the blackout. Thank you so much.”

Awesome!

Tai Ergen and his team’s operation had plunged the already panicking Truth Society main base into even greater chaos, buying her a lot of time. If she had done it herself, something unexpected might have happened along the way.

The players’ affinity points weren’t wasted!

Bai Fu’s eyes lit up.

She realized that these were all exemplary cases!

In fact, over a hundred players had joined her during the attack on the Gene Progenitor’s marine biology research institute, but because she didn’t want to attract attention from the Gene Progenitor, neither she nor those players had publicized it extensively.

Now that she didn’t have to worry anymore, she decided to take advantage of this opportunity to promote herself as the Demon Queen, showing others the benefits of genuinely working for her, and advertise the Silent Courtyard.

Bai Fu planned to attack the Gene Progenitor next. Although the Gene Progenitor had a poor attitude towards players, a batch of players had still joined due to various reasons.

She hoped to enchant the Gene Progenitor’s players by portraying Tai Ergen and his team as exemplary figures.

What are you waiting for?

I’ve already attacked, hurry up and learn from Tai Ergen and his team!

“It’s hard to say if everyone can be persuaded to surrender, but this tactic definitely works wonders.”

Players aren’t here to suffer. Seeing others profit from being traitors, they might not follow suit but they’ll surely be envious.

“It’s great you’re safe. I’m returning to the Goli Desert now. If you’re interested, you can come with me.”

“Interested, of course.”

Tai Ergen nodded eagerly, and the other players didn’t fall behind. They had been waiting for this moment.

They were so touched. From today, they would be part of the Fu Sect, enjoying good food and drinks, and cheering up by looking at Bai Fu when they were down.

Bai Fu said, “You should see that I don’t have much on me right now. The reward might have to wait until we return to the Goli Desert.”

“No problem, no problem, Fu Fu, don’t rush.”

Though they said this, Tai Ergen and the others were already eagerly anticipating what rewards they might receive.

Bai Fu prepared a generous reward for the players who made significant contributions during the Truth Society action.

Money?

Such things were too vulgar. How could she defile the players’ dedication with money? She prepared identities, honors, new opportunities for self-realization, and support for pursuing legends!

In plain terms, she planned to give these players custom-made exclusive commemorative Sky Eye Medals and Silent Courtyard exclusive uniforms, and assign them a few easy-to-complete exclusive quests to help them level up.

Don’t underestimate the limited edition medals; Bai Fu intended to give them special privileges, such as accompanying her on missions and leaving the Source Star early to venture into the Celestial Sea.

As for the Silent Courtyard exclusive uniforms, this was something she had planned for a long time.

If she wanted to properly manage the Silent Courtyard, uniforms were a must.

False temptation: Bai Fu put on a catgirl outfit!

True temptation: Uniforms symbolizing status within the Silent Courtyard!

…

After bidding farewell to Tai Ergen and the others, Bai Fu found an undamaged vehicle nearby and started loading the items collected by He Fu onto it.

While she was busy, Coleman and his team had already entered the base under orders to seal it off.

Bai Fu wasn’t very interested in the remaining items in the base, so after loading everything onto the vehicle, she bid farewell to Coleman and his team.

Coleman said, “Orders in hand, I won’t see you off.”

His mission was to seal the Truth Society main base. As for Bai Fu, let her do as she pleased.

The Human Alliance was wary of Bai Fu. Because of this wariness, they dared not act rashly against her, even if she might be severely injured. If they failed to eliminate Bai Fu, they would have trouble sleeping well.

Bai Fu thanked them and set off for the Goli Desert with Yulia and the players.

On the way back, she communicated with Elder Nissen and Gao Yuan in advance, informing them of the events here and asking them to start making the medals and uniforms.

Four hours later, near the northern border of the Former Republic, a convoy blocked Bai Fu’s path.

From afar, she saw the flag hanging on the vehicle; it was the Gene Progenitor’s national flag.

“They mean business.”

After successfully eliminating the Truth Society president, Bai Fu worried that someone might target her due to her prowess. To avoid this, she had strengthened herself in the Truth Society main base.

With her current strength, she didn’t fear this convoy, but there was still a weak link by her side who trembled just standing. It was better not to engage if possible.

“What’s the matter?”

Bai Fu stopped the vehicle and poked her head out the window.

The convoy commander was stunned. His gaze was drawn to Bai Fu’s right hand resting on the window frame.

The fingertips of her pale hand flickered with translucent white spirit energy, like tiny flames, causing intense vibrations in his heart.

This wasn’t something a regular spiritual prayer mage could achieve. Indeed, Bai Fu had broken some limit and possessed even more terrifying power than the Truth Society president.

The command was to find an opportunity to kill Bai Fu, who was in poor condition after battling the Truth Society president, but he couldn’t see any signs of her being in poor condition.

Your state of being poor isn’t shown by your flushed appearance, is it?

Someone who didn’t know might even think Bai Fu had just consumed some nourishing tonic.

The commander hastily said, “Nothing, I came to thank you. Without you, we wouldn’t have handled the Truth Society so easily.”

“I see.” Bai Fu smiled, “I thought you were ambushing me. I was already ready to fight.”

The commander broke out in a sweat, “No, you are a hero of the Source Star. Once news of this spreads, you will become an idol. Then…”

He stumbled over his words, internally cursing the council members.

Damn, a bunch of old bastards sitting in their offices, opening their mouths to say they’d kill Bai Fu. Wasn’t it so easy to kill Bai Fu? They should have personally experienced Bai Fu’s gaze.

“Are you in a hurry to go back? Then I won’t keep you. Move aside, everyone move aside, give our hero a path.”

Under the commander’s order, the vehicles blocking the road moved to the sides.

Bai Fu didn’t say much. She lightly pressed the accelerator and led the player’s vehicle through the convoy, only daring to breathe deeply once she and the players disappeared into the pollution zone.

“Mom, I survived!”

“First, I’ll send my girlfriend a message saying I’m safe. Before coming, I told her I’d marry her after this mission ends.”

“Are some people in the council brain-dead? Working well with Bai Fu, yet suddenly betraying her. Now Bai Fu is so strong she can’t beat the Truth Society president.”

“Shh, such truths shouldn’t be spoken.”

As the Gene Progenitor’s people whispered, Bai Fu spoke to Yulia in the passenger seat.

“They clearly came to cause trouble. You don’t need to let them off for my safety.”

Bai Fu turned the steering wheel, “Not entirely for you. My next target is the Gene Progenitor, but before taking action, I need to prepare. So, I’d rather delay confrontation if possible.”

Not entirely, so there’s still a bit, huh?

Yulia said, “Thank you for saving me. I’ll repay you.”

Bai Fu waved her hand, “We’ll talk about it later. Sleep first, you should be at the Goli Desert when you wake up. Elder Nissen and your friends are all waiting for you to return.”

Yulia nodded and closed her eyes.

She wasn’t quite sure what Bai Fu’s intentions were. Bai Fu seemed to have deep plans for her, but upon closer inspection, it didn’t seem so. She wondered if she was overthinking it or if Bai Fu enjoyed teasing her.

She would slowly probe Bai Fu’s intentions after returning to the Goli Desert.

In this process, she could gradually approach and study Bai Fu.

Despite successfully escaping from the Truth Society, Yulia remained very interested in Bai Fu.

How did Bai Fu break free from her control? How did Bai Fu grow so rapidly?

Though she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, she was certain Bai Fu’s body was extraordinary. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have grown so quickly. The thought of having a chance to study Bai Fu deeply excited her.

Life is unpredictable.

Back then, she wanted to capture Bai Fu to help herself escape, but now Bai Fu has become her savior.

Yulia shook her head.

What a pity, she should have taken some of Bai Fu’s hair or skin as research material while giving her mana earlier.

Wouldn’t she be considered a pervert?

Probably not, it’s just a hobby of a doctor. Medical research requires collecting hair and cells, after all.

Sniffing the faint fragrance on her left side, Yulia fell into a deep sleep for the first time in years.

…

The news of the Truth Society president’s death spread within a few hours.

Civilians in large settlements, scavengers and wanderers in small camps, bandits running wild in the wilderness, assassins and mercenaries operating in the shadows—they all received the news.

Everyone speculated how the Truth Society suddenly collapsed. At this point, some authoritative news media disclosed key intelligence that pointed to one name—

Bai Fu!

[“Who is Bai Fu? Investigate her past”]

[“The Nemesis of the Truth Society, the Pure Hero”]

[“The Master of Situation, the Main Character of the Era—Bai Fu”]

[“Beauty, Wisdom, and Strength, She is Bai Fu!”]

A plethora of exaggerated titles were bestowed upon Bai Fu by the news media. Under their promotion, Bai Fu suddenly became the eye of the storm, and while she was leisurely driving, the discussions about her were getting fiercer.

This is a legend!

This is the discussion level a legend should have!

The discussions in the civilian community of the Source Star eventually spread to the player community. Many players of the Silent Courtyard were still chasing after the fleeing Truth Society members, but they were shocked to hear that Bai Fu had already stormed through the main base of the Truth Society and killed its president.

[“Wow, Fu Fu is so powerful?”]

[“You actually doubt Fu Fu’s strength? You’re disloyal!”]

[“Did you see the news reports? The living legend, the main character of the era, cheer and celebrate, these NPCs have officially recognized Fu Fu as the main character of the Source Star!”]

[“Damn, still treasure hunting, I immediately noticed that Fu Fu was extraordinary when I first met her”]

[“Give a triple thumbs up to Treasure Hunting, if not for Treasure Hunting consistently making videos related to Fu Fu, I wouldn’t have joined the Silent Courtyard in the Goli Desert so early”]

The players of the Silent Courtyard were nearly ecstatic.

What is it like to cling to the leg of the planet’s main character?

Praise, praise this plump thigh that can leave beautiful indentations even when wearing stockings!

Players from other factions and planets were envious. Stop showing off, stop showing off, if you show off any more, I’ll report Bai Fu for cheating!

[“Where is our planet’s main character?”]

[“Why isn’t Fu Fu fighting me in this Truth Society base? Then I could surrender directly”]

However, some players noticed a problem.

Although Bai Fu performed exceptionally well in this main quest, making it almost impossible for others to overlook her, her standout performance meant the main quest was almost over. What would players do next if the main quest ended?

Side quests? The rewards of side quests were probably not as good as the main quest.

[“You don’t understand, this means the destruction of the Truth Society is not the final main quest of the Source Star. Trust Fu Fu, with the pure hero Fu Fu, we won’t lose or get stuck”]

Jiujiao timely stepped in, debating with the crowd and stating she would perform an upside-down head wash if she was wrong.

Her statement reassured many players, but some still felt worried.

What if there really aren’t any more main quests?

Even though their levels were noticeably higher than those of ordinary players from other planets, without new main quests, their levels might soon be surpassed.

Young, too young!

Boredom led Bai Fu to browse the community and read these comments, which made her laugh.

What’s a Truth Society worth? Next, she was going to attack the Gene Progenitor, who had aliens. Wouldn’t the rewards be higher than besieging the Truth Society?

Attacking the Truth Society was basically her personal show, but attacking the Gene Progenitor was different.

Bai Fu planned to lead the players as vanguards, sweeping through without giving the Gene Progenitor any chance to resist. This way, players would have plenty of opportunities to shine.

And if she were officially recognized as the true main character of the Source Star in the next reinforcement, and her reconstruction plan of the Source Star was officially recognized as the new main quest, things would be much easier.

How many branches would such a grand main quest to reconstruct the Source Star have?

“By then, don’t complain about the main quest content being too heavy.”

Bai Fu Town.

Bai Fu jumped out of the car with Yulia, breathing in the familiar dry air, feeling a comforting tranquility.

“Although I’ve seen this scene through a doll’s perspective before, seeing it with my own eyes makes me feel like I’m dreaming.”

Yulia’s mouth was slightly open, her emotions fluctuating, filled with mixed feelings.

She was even a little afraid to step on the ground, wanting Bai Fu to hold her longer to avoid waking up from the dream due to the sensation of solid ground.

“This is just the beginning. I will continue to expand this town and gradually promote my reconstruction plan centered around this town!” Bai Fu generously shared her thoughts with Yulia.

Yulia was noncommittal about this idea, letting Bai Fu lead her hand as they walked toward Bai Fu Town.

At this moment, a group of people suddenly rushed out of the town, with Elder Nissen, Sean, and others leading the charge.

They cheered loudly, shouting Bai Fu’s name and Yulia’s name.

“Bai Fu is back!”

“Fu! Fu! Fu!”

“Welcome home!”

The welcoming ceremony for the pure white hero was unprecedentedly grand in Bai Fu Town.

PS: Put down the bowl and request votes~~~

There was a bug in the previous chapter regarding spirit energy; it hadn’t fully recovered. The data was written as fully recovered, which didn’t match with Bai Fu’s status.
