When You Become an NPC That Might Die Any Moment in the Novice Village-Chapter 179 - 81 shines all over, the charm of the main character in this version [5k]

Morning, and the sun was in full splendor.

At the gate of Shelter No. 11, more than two hundred new players were packed tightly together.

After the initial surprise and commotion had settled down, most of the new players' attention was now drawn to An Ya, who had suddenly emerged from Shelter No. 11.

[Hey, I recognize this NPC, isn't she Bai Fu's lackey?]

[That's right, it's her, the Newbie Guide of Silent Court!]

[Goodness, she's so cute, I wonder what would happen if I pinched her cheek. She'd probably cry for a long time, huh?]

[Bro, don't get handsy, these NPCs have badass AI. If you go pinch her face for no reason and she gets angry, you won't be able to join the Camp or receive any Tasks.]

[True, if I remember correctly, doesn't An Ya have a set of Power Armor? Be careful, or she might come at you with it.]

Most of these players were entering the game for the first time but were by no means strangers to Stars Above, let alone Bai Fu, An Ya, and Silent Court.

This was all thanks to the relentless marketing of Digging Girl.

Starting with Star Travel Society's "First Annual Most Popular Female NPC in Stars Above Contest," Digging Girl created one hot topic after another with her battles against various players, and most of these battles revolved around Bai Fu. As a result, players who had been following Stars Above for some time and enjoyed surfing online were now mostly familiar with the name Bai Fu.

But knowing the name didn't mean these players would be inclined towards Bai Fu when playing the game.

In the initial rumors, Bai Fu was just a hidden character whose storyline was unclear when it would become prominent. For those focused on power, storyline, and quests, there was no reason to specifically venture to Shelter No. 11 to find Bai Fu.

However, the debate sparked by Digging Girl's new video just before the launch of version 1.1 changed everything.

Digging Girl's remark that "Fufu might be related to the main storyline, or even be the main character of this version" shifted the attitudes of many new players.

Holy shit, the main character of the version?

That's a must-rush situation!

This is the power of marketing!

Even the best wine fears a deep alley—if it weren't for Digging Girl as a capable marketer, Bai Fu thought she'd likely be still racking her brains on how to continue to win over players' Affinity.

Now that the situation had reversed and players would seek her out voluntarily, she just had to show a bit of goodwill to win over a crowd of players.

In fact, what Bai Fu had prepared for these new players was not just "a bit of goodwill," but rather, a gaming experience of convenience that couldn't be enjoyed in other Camps at present.

Firstly, Bai Fu presented the new players with the clever and adorable Newbie Guide and Quartermaster!

An Ya, wearing a Silent Court robe that Bai Fu had the Gao Family rush to make, greeted the two hundred-plus new players with a friendly face.

"Undying People from beyond the mist, this is Shelter No. 11 in the Goli Desert, the location of Silent Court."

"Shelter No. 11 is a peaceful settlement where you can experience the unique flavor of an Alien Realm..."

An Ya patiently started to introduce the details about Shelter No. 11, along with some important matters that couldn't be done.

The matters she highlighted were her own addition; she was terrified that these new Undyings would, like the first-comers to the Abandoned Cooling Factory, rummage through other people's homes without any reason.

Minutes later.

She pressed her five fingers together in front of her chest and said, "I hope you will find what you seek on this journey. If you have any questions, you can always ask me or consult your predecessors."

Next, Bai Fu presented the new players with the benefits enjoyed by the old players at Silent Court!

After Sky-Surpassing Sword Qi, Patrick, Digging Girl, and those converted to the ways of Fu logged in, Bai Fu released a new Daily Task in the Camp management interface.

[Assistant to the Newbie Guide]

The content of the Task was to help An Ya in answering questions for new players. However, the requirements were not low; only older players with a Camp Reputation over 20 could take it.

Because the Task was easy, the rewards were not high, offering only a small amount of Experience and Camp Reputation. But even a small mosquito is still meat, and besides, this Task wouldn't take up much time to complete.

The Task was immediately seen as a hot commodity among players.

One who converted to the ways of Fu took the Task. He set his [Task Tracker] to visible and deliberately placed it over his head. As a result, other players saw his name transform into—

[Assistant to the Newbie Guide]

[One who converted to the ways of Fu]

The spectating players were almost blinded.

Damn, isn't this an exclusive Title for old players with high Reputation?

It's so classy, it's just too classy!

The fact that there were rewards for old players guiding new players was already pleasing, but who knew it could be played out like this?

Stirred by what one who converted to the ways of Fu had done, both old players with low Reputation and the new players now were dead set on diligently grinding Silent Court Reputation.

Bai Fu's use of exclusive tasks for old players to stimulate the new players was a huge success.

Then, Bai Fu presented the new players with unparalleled comprehensive services that weren't found in any other Newbie Village on Ancestral Origin Star!

In other Newbie Villages, purchasing Equipment, food, and items usually aren't all in the same place. Players need to run around, find each place themselves, and waste a lot of game time just traveling.

But there was no such problem in Shelter No. 11.

Bai Fu, in collaboration with Gao Yuan, converted a deserted street in Shelter No. 11 into a shopping district devoted entirely to serving the players.
