When You Become an NPC That Might Die Any Moment in the Novice Village-Chapter 1085 - 395: Battle of the Covenant

The phantom of Ignatius appeared in the grand hall of the Imperial Palace.

During Bai Fu's resurrection, he constantly kept in touch with the Child of Prophecy, learning about the explored universe's condition.

Upon hearing that the Imperial Capital Star was fallen, he immediately had the Child of Prophecy act as a "Signal Tower" to project himself in front of Bai Fu for a conversation.

At this moment, his chest was already filled with anger.

The murderous desire flashing in his eyes seemed to penetrate millions of light-years away, materializing in the grand hall of the Imperial Palace.

"Bai Fu!"

A deep roar sounded.

Ignatius ignored everyone else around, his eyes fixed on Bai Fu.

Bai Fu said calmly, "Are you here to threaten me or to surrender?"

Ignatius said coldly, "You may have the upper hand now, but..."

"Help, Great Emperor, save me, they want to kill me and have stolen the Empire's highest crown, placing it on Bai Fu's head!"

Odoacer suddenly shouted, interrupting Ignatius.

Just before the players could hold him down, Ignatius exploded first.

"Useless, get out of here, this is not your place to speak!"

"But..."

Odoacer wanted to say something more, but Ignatius yelled again.

"If you say one more word, if Bai Fu doesn't kill you, I will!"

Odoacer opened his mouth, finally lowering his head in defeat.

Indeed.

Why would he foolishly seek Ignatius's help?

Ignatius had never thought well of him.

Not just Ignatius, but others from the Origins Agreement and many within the Empire have never thought well of him.

Odoacer knew.

Actually, Demetri and Bulalo were also disappointed in him.

But their love for the Empire made them continue to assist him diligently, despite their disappointment.

However, he once thought this was all warranted, without appreciating it.

Now, Demetri's fate is unknown, and Bulalo's whereabouts are uncertain.

Looking around the vast Imperial City, he couldn't find a loyal minister.

For the first time, Odoacer felt he was a failure, unfit to be the Emperor of the Empire.

He also felt regret for the first time, regretting his complete allegiance to Ignatius simply because of Ignatius's relationship with the Empire.

"Swearing at your own men so harshly?"

Bai Fu glanced at Odoacer, then at Ignatius.

"Seems like you're pretty angry."

"Angry?" Ignatius sneered, "Bai Fu, you better release the Origins Agreement people from the Silent Alliance now, or when I return from the Dark Domain, I will spare no expense to turn the entire Silent Alliance into a living hell!"

This blatant threat shocked the surrounding players.

Are you announcing a massacre here?

"Wow, this Ignatius is so evil!"

"Damn, can't beat Fufu, so threatening civilians instead? Are you even human?"

Various curses burst from players' mouths.

Ignatius was completely unfazed.

Oh, not just unfazed, he became even more arrogant.

"Don't doubt whether I can do it; you don't have enough time to move everyone from the Silent Alliance to places I know before I return. Your prior tactics will not succeed a second time!"

Bai Fu's face darkened, "Your aim is to continue civilization, but what you're doing now goes against your goal!"

Ignatius: "On the path to the future, some will inevitably sacrifice."

"They don't need to sacrifice."

"If you commit suicide now, then of course they don't need to sacrifice."

Bai Fu: "..."

From Ancestral Origin Star to now, she had never encountered such a shameless boss like Ignatius.

Other bosses were evil, but had never morally blackmailed her.

For a moment, players cursed even more ferociously.

They directly broadcasted the conversation between Ignatius and Bai Fu.

Not only for other players to watch, but also for NPCs in the explored universe.

Seeing this, most NPCs were dumbfounded.

Is not, was Ignatius always like this? Is this some fake stream tarnishing him?

Some questioned.

Others directly cheered Bai Fu on.

Go Bai Fu, the white-haired big sister!

Bai Fu nodded, "Fine, I'll release them, but you're late; there are hardly any survivors left."

Ignatius seemed indifferent to this, immediately changed the topic.

"I have another demand."

"?"

"Bring your soul-related Cosmic Treasure to the location I designate for a duel. I don't know what gives you the confidence to claim you can completely kill me after three hundred days; now, I won't give you more time!" 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

"¿"

More question marks appeared above Bai Fu's head.

"Is this not finished, do you really think you can rely on the Silent Alliance to defeat me?"

Ignatius laughed heartily, "I certainly wouldn't be so naive, so this time I'm wagering every civilization in the entire universe!"

Hmm?

Wait!

Bai Fu suddenly understood Ignatius's meaning.

Ignatius meant, if she didn't go, he would forcibly enhance his power or spread the Harvester's news, triggering their descent, directly destroying all civilizations of this generation, making everyone die together with him.

Dammit, "born evil" doesn't suffice to describe Ignatius.

Bai Fu originally intended to argue with Ignatius a bit, but now she completely abandoned that plan.

Ignatius is this crazy, saying anything is meaningless.
