Because she was not involved in human affairs, when the Truth Society clashed fiercely with the Genetic Primordial and the latter was exposed several times for possibly harboring unspeakable secrets, the Old Republic remained cool-headed, not reacting excessively.
Besides this intelligence, Bai Fu also learned some insider information about the Spiritual Ability Spread Committee from Beixim.
Before the Great Battle, various nations came together to establish the Spiritual Ability Spread Committee, which comprised a main center and three branches, each designated to research different items found on alien spaceships.
The main center's research scope was unknown, the first branch researched mutant technology, the second studied obsidian, and the third focused on Spiritual Ability Knowledge.
The first branch received the most investment.
Before the Great Battle erupted, the first branch produced a batch of mutants with exceedingly phenomenal power, but due to some unknown reasons, these mutants rebelled, nearly destroying the first branch. Later, the committee destroyed these mutants and sealed the first branch.
Yet the first branch was sealed, but somehow the special mutant manufacturing technology leaked out.
This technology leak was one of the factors that led to mutual suspicion among the nations, culminating in the outbreak of war.
"An interesting little story."
After Beixim finished, Bai Fu received a game notification.
[You have completed the hidden main task "Delusional Saviors" branch 1 "Old Hatred," earning a reward of 200,000 Experience Points, Ancestral Origin Star Exploration Degree +0.5%, Memory Fragment +1]
Bai Fu approached Beixim and suddenly pulled out an electric knife, stabbing it into Beixim's stomach.
Beixim exclaimed in horror, "What are you doing? Didn't you say if I confessed, I could join the Truth Society and become a high-ranking member?"
Bai Fu said, "I lied."
Rumors said she was the Ghost Night Dominator, and one of Ghost Night Dominator's souls loved to deceive people. She loved lying too, so no issue!
Bai Fu quite liked this notion, so she decided to outright steal it—definitely not confessing straight out. In due time, she planned to shape the image deliberately, letting players speculate themselves.
Beixim tried to struggle, but his body was incredibly weak. Under the stimulation of the electric knife, his blood bar was depleted within moments, leaving him to die with his eyes wide open.
[You have killed Beixim, Contribution 100%, adjusted for level difference yielding 220,000 Experience Points]
Bai Fu was delighted.
Thanks to the Truth Society, thanks to the Truth Society Chairman, having such a major villain handy both to blame and to intimidate others was fantastic!
After burying Beixim in a pit, Bai Fu opened the game notification mentioned about the Memory Fragment.
[Memory Fragment—Spiritual Ability Research Institute Branch One—Mutant Insurrection]
[Memory Introduction]: Branch One of the Spiritual Ability Research Institute is a secret laboratory responsible for researching mutant technology. You will play a mutant, attempting to escape this sealed laboratory with other mutants.
[Level Restriction]: Lv35
Just as Bai Fu originally suspect, the Memory Fragment was indeed an instance.
With this, she could significantly speed up her Experience acquisition.
Profession Level, Skill Level...
If she could raise all these levels, she wouldn't need to rely on the Truth Society's name anymore—I am Bai Fu, I am the unparalleled!
But now wasn't the time to rejoice. Bai Fu hastily gathered her things and took off.
As she ran, she checked the camp channel. Because she had made very detailed plans beforehand, no player was captured alive; all players involved in the operation committed suicide and returned to the Resurrection Point after completing their tasks.
After causing upheaval all night, the Old Republic ended up with nothing.
This is what made players so fearsome!
Bai Fu was about to close the camp channel when she noticed a player had posted a link.
[Version 1.2 update explosive news, everyone go check it out!]
She quickly clicked on the link, even more interested in each version's new content than the players.
