Although She’s Only a Level 1 Noob, She’s Still Incredibly Powerful - Chapter 5

 　　”Don’t you say a word ……,” the hairband man’s voice trembled, “Let’s go first.”

　　”She’s going to climb out…… Run!” Fu Yao took a few steps back and madly turned her head and ran.

　　”Wait!” Bai Qiuye took two steps forward and grabbed her arm.

　　The handle of the boning knife slammed into Fu Yao’s neck with a ‘snap’.

　　Fu Yao was struck, her eyes instantly closed, and then like a puddle of mud, she softly fell over towards Bai Qiuye.

　　The hairband man asked in surprise: “What are you doing?”

　　Bai Qiuye: “Are you blind, can’t you see that I knocked her out?”

　　She spoke with too much justification, the hairband man was speechless for a moment, and after a two seconds, said, “I’m asking you why you hit someone!”

　　Bai Qiuye: “Don’t you think it’s better to make her faint.”

　　The hairband man calmed down and felt that Bai Qiuye’s words made sense.

　　Before Fu Yao fainted, she looked mentally unstable, if she had let her run away, she might die somewhere.

　　Bai Qiuye pushed Fu Yao into the hairband man’s arms, “You carry her, I can’t carry her in my back.”

　　The hairband man’s mouth twitched, but he still carried Fu Yao on his back.

　　Bai Qiuye glanced back and realized that the street had become a bit different. The two houses that were right next to each other just now disappeared, and in their place was a scene she was very familiar with.

　　Directly in front of her, Widow Du’s house was no longer out of reach either, it was just a few more steps away.
　　

　　’Changed back?’

　　She secretly sighed in relief.

　　Mo Jie also noticed the change, and the experienced one analyzed, ”Fu Yao is probably being haunted by an evil spirit, and we’re too close to her, so we’re also being affected. What we encountered just now was a ghost wall, as soon as she fainted, the ghost in the wall disappeared.”

　　As for who exactly the ghost was just now, he already had a guess in his mind.

　　Speaking of this, Mo Jie looked at Bai Qiuye and encouraged, “Although it was a mistake, you reacted quickly and were able to make up for a lot of the flaws brought about by the level gap.” And although she was a level 1 noob, she was an invincible umbrella in this copy, at the critical moment.

　　Only a fool would eat a sugar-coated bullet!

　　He just wanted her to not work hard to level up and wanted her to degrade herself.

　　Bai Qiuye looked humble: “Don’t say that, all the ghosts are so high leveled, I can’t defeat them. Let’s quickly hurry back and move the corpses-”

　　She suddenly paused.

　　Just now, a shadow suddenly flashed in her eyes.

　　It was a figure, wearing a blue dress with long hair draped over its shoulders, as if its back was turned to her, standing under the eaves of a house on the right side of the street.

　　Bai Qiuye turned her head suddenly, but she saw nothing.

　　Mo Jie asked, “What’s wrong?”

　　Bai Qiuye shook her head, “Nothing.” It’s just that she might have seen a ghost.

　　She remembered that Fu Yao had the same reaction before.

　　Mo Jie seemed to see something, but didn’t point it out, “Then hurry up and go.”

　　They quickly returned to Widow Du’s house.

　　The lights were still on and Liu He was sitting in the living room, looking calm.

　　He saw the others returning and turned his head, suddenly frowning, “There are fewer people?”

　　Mo Jie hummed, “Zhong Ying is dead.”

　　Liu He’s lowered his eyes without saying anything more.

　　While he was on guard, the task was updated.

　　”Find a sheet, wrap the body and bring it down.” Mo Jie finished speaking and turned his head to look at Bai Qiuye.

　　Although he guessed that Bai Qiuye’s newbie protection mechanism had gone into cooldown, he inexplicably felt safe staying with Bai Qiuye.

　　Bai Qiuye asked with a confused expression, “What’s wrong?”

　　Mo Jie’s face turned slightly red: “Ahem, nothing. You guys wait downstairs.”

　　He went upstairs with Liu He, leaving only Bai Qiuye, the hairband man, and the unconscious Fu Yao on the first floor.

　　The hairband man looked at Bai Qiuye, “You, just now-”

　　Bai Qiuye smiled and put on a humble demeanor, “Thanks to all of you big brothers supporting me just now, you guys are my benefactors!”

　　Although the hairband man had been been deceived by Bai Qiuye and lost all his money, he wasn’t the type to hope for luck.

　　Thinking about it calmly, if he had entered the room by himself, he wouldn’t necessarily be able to come out alive.

　　Coupled with Bai Qiuye’s helpful attitude, his face gradually became kind.

　　Just as he was about to say a few words along with her, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

　　”Maybe she used to be a rice bug, and the reason she’s in the copy now is because she’s been abandoned by her sponsor?”

　　”Even if she was forced to earn survival coupons on her own, why didn’t she choose a copy with a low level?”

　　”She really doesn’t act scared like a normal newbie. Could it be that…. she has confidence in her heart?”

　　”Although the newbie protection mechanism is powerful, it’s only a short ten minutes and the cooldown time is too long. What does she rely on at other times?”

　　The hairband man sucked in a breath of cool air.

　　He recalled the great god in the beginning of the copy who smashed the ghost’s head with an iron bucket.

　　”Could it be that she was brought in by that great god! For some purpose!”

　　The hairband man was instantly enlightened.

　　At the same time, he felt that he had come to his realization too late.

　　If he had taken extra care of Bai Qiye from the start, he might have been looked at differently by that Great God.

　　He would also have been able to follow Bai Qiuye and climb onto a more powerful backer.

　　Although Mo Jie was powerful, he was like a speck of dust compared to that great god.

　　The hairband man adjusted his posture, “Well, I have to remind you of something. When you go out, pay attention to someone.”

　　Although he was speaking to Bai Qiuye, he was actually talking to the great god behind Bai Qiuye.

　　Bai Qiuye was confused, “Who is it?”

　　The hairband man pursed his lips, pulled out a piece of paper and wrote a few strokes on it, kneading it into a small ball and sneakily shoving it to Bai Qiuye.

　　Infected by his actions, Bai Qiuye discreetly covered the top of it with one hand in vain and carefully unfolded the ball of paper.

　　There were four words written on it – [Beware of Zhong Xuan]

　　Who is that, Was the hairband man testing her.

　　Seeing Bai Qiuye’s solemn expression, the hairband man thought she understood.

　　After he saw Zhong Ying, he knew she was Zhong Xuan’s sister. That’s why he had protected her several times before.

　　He didn’t realize that this copy hid crouching tigers, and Bai Qiuye’s backer was stronger than Zhong Ying’s.

　　As a wallflower, He naturally had to follow the wind. That’s why he had to curry favor with Bai Qiuye.

　　At this time Mo Jie and Liu He carried the corpse downstairs, and the old-fashioned wall clock in the room pointed to one o’clock.

　　Liu He’s hand suddenly loosened, and the corpse slipped out of the quilt and landed on the floor with a thud. The back of the corpse’s head was hit by the sharpness of the staircase and made a deep dent, with blood seeping out of it.

　　”Fuck!” The body stopped right in front of him and the hairband man backed away in a hurry, “What’s wrong with you?”

　　Liu He lifted his hand to look at his fingers, only to see that there was not even a trace of blood color on his fingers, as if they were five delicately carved paper sculptures.

　　Liu He: “Paperization.”

　　[Current paperization level: 20%]

　　[Distance to next papering: 20 minutes.]

　　[Distance to work deadline:3 hours.]
