Doomsday Club

At the final agreed time.

Hundreds of people had already gathered outside the market.

Xu Nuo glanced around and realized that almost all the current survivors in Ning City had arrived.

A bunch of oddly dressed guys, armed with weapons, were crouching or standing guard outside the market, looking like a scene from a high school drama.

Xu Nuo and his two companions stood at the very front of the crowd, their appearance looking rather sinister.

"No? Who is the villain then?"

Things were indeed much as he had predicted; Ning City's resources had long been severely depleted.

If this continues, the existing ecosystem will collapse completely in no time.

Whether survivors or doomsday rats, they've all been eyeing the market, this prime piece of meat, for far too long.

It's not that they're not afraid of "divine punishment," but rather that they simply can't take it anymore and would rather gamble by joining in the fun.

That's why these guys swarmed around like flies drawn to a stench.

They were afraid that if they arrived late, they wouldn't get any of the benefits.

The market is indeed powerful, but it has to be compared to something else, doesn't it?

Compared to scattered doomsday rats or small groups, the market's armed forces could hang them up and arrange them in eight hundred different ways.

However, compared to all the survivors in Ning City, the market's armed forces were far too weak.

Even if they are not of one mind, even if this group of people all have their own ulterior motives.

Under overwhelming numerical superiority, unless the opponent can pull out firearms, there will only be one outcome.

—After they breached the defenses, they seized all the supplies.

Do you think they'll show up?

"It's hard to say."

The wind blew, and yellow sand swirled across the ground.

The two sides faced off, and the atmosphere was inexplicably oppressive.

Just then, Lin Xiaoxiao lowered her head and secretly nudged Xu Nuo beside her.

God knows what's really going on with that world-destroying organization, but if they can hold back this time, then Xu Nuo is completely out of options.

"What do you want to do?"

"A rebellion?!"

Just as the two sides were locked in a standoff, there was finally some movement from the market.

The guards in black uniforms came out in droves, eventually forming two lines in front of them to make way for the crowd.

"They're here!" Xu Nuo's pupils contracted.

After so many cycles, will we finally see the true face of the Doomsday Lord?

But when the other party actually appeared, both Xu Nuo and Lin Xiaoxiao looked somewhat surprised.

Inside the market, the masked Doomsday Lord sat in a wheelchair, slowly being pushed forward by his bodyguards, until he finally arrived in front of everyone.

He was dressed in a navy blue suit, wearing a white mask, and sitting upright in a wheelchair.

His upper body looked very muscular, and even wearing a suit couldn't hide his bulging muscles, while his lower body was cut off cleanly below the knees.

Cripple?

This is so unexpected.

No wonder this guy always sat motionless behind the boss's table in the shadows whenever the market was attacked.

Even when I dodged the bullets and got right in front of him last time, this thing sat perfectly still.

It turns out that without legs, it couldn't move at all.

The case is solved.

As for the mask on the Doomsday Lord's face, Xu Nuo was somewhat disappointed, but not entirely unexpected.

As the ruler of the marketplace, maintaining a certain degree of mystery is clearly necessary.

Otherwise, if someone were to be the ruler of the market, a burly man with a baby face, it would be difficult for him to maintain any authority.

Malicious speculation.

Xu Nuo looked at the other person and almost burst out laughing.

"Are you trying to rebel?!"

The Doomsday Lord looked at the dark mass of people in the distance, raised his hand, and one of his men handed him a megaphone.

His very first words were accusations.

Instead, Xu Nuo narrowed her eyes after seeing the other party's performance and silently made a note of it.

"Nearsightedness? Presbyopia? Or astigmatism?"

In short, this guy's eyesight isn't very good.

The two were only a hundred meters apart, but when they were face to face, the Doomsday Lord did not use the classic opening line.

It's known that every time this thing sees Xu Nuo's face, it triggers its underlying code, causing it to exclaim in shock, "It's you! The Destroyer of Worlds!"

There can only be one reason why Xu Nuo showed no reaction this time.

It was too far away; I couldn't see it clearly at all.

What kind of information is this? Never mind, I'll just write it down.

At that moment, the Doomsday Lord's questioning continued.

"Are you all tired of living? Why are you all so eager to band together and die?"

Unfortunately, nobody paid any attention to him.

Finally, Mingyue spoke up sarcastically, "Come on, you're just a stinking bug who hogs the market and hides inside, afraid to show your face. You really think you're the ruler of Ning City?"

"Idiot." Lin Xiaoxiao said succinctly.

Upon hearing this, the Doomsday Lord was so angry that he trembled all over.

For so many years, who has ever seen him not to be respectful and even fearful? How long has it been since anyone dared to scold him to his face like that?

Just when Xu Nuo thought he was about to make a move, the guy took a deep breath and held back.

"All you want is supplies, no problem."

He said through gritted teeth, "I can easily give you half of the market's supplies."

After saying that, he looked at the dark mass of people in front of him and said in a threatening tone, "But I have one request, and that is that you must capture the leader and hand him over to me."

The words had just left his mouth.

Those around Xu Nuo immediately became restless.

These guys only gathered together for personal gain, and now that even greater benefits are in front of them, it's only natural that they'd turn against them temporarily.

"Don't be silly."

Xu Nuo sneered, "Half the supplies? As long as we kill you, won't everything in the market belong to us brothers?"

As he spoke, he turned and glanced at the men around him, each with their own ulterior motives. He scanned the group, but none dared to meet his gaze. "Besides," he said, "do you really think that after all we've gone to this extent, you can leave alive with the stuff?"

"Is this guy really going to let you go?"

"Isn't that too naive?"

The surrounding noise gradually subsided.

Just as promised.

Now they are faced with two choices.

You either believe the Doomsday Lord's lies, or you follow the promise to the end.

Xu Nuo has already proven his character and credibility in the past month or so. As for the Doomsday Lord?

This bastard has a history of ripping off survivors in Ning City.

Relying on their private armed forces, they have frequently seized supplies, and have been known to beat, verbally abuse, and even kill and rob.

Fighting is indeed prohibited in the market.

But these rules were set up for outsiders like them.

There are no such rules for guards within the market.

However, the survivors were too weak to speak out against their anger.

You either starve to death outside, or you go to the market where at least you'll have a chance to survive.

If you were in that situation, which would you choose?

So, when Xu Nuo finished speaking, everyone's anger reached its peak.

"Stop talking, brothers, kill him!"

"I support our leader becoming the new Doomsday Lord!"

"Exactly! The boss's character is already proven by everyone!"

He saw the people around him shouting that they were going to take action.

Xu Nuo opened his mouth as if to speak, but then stopped himself.

"No way? Who the hell draped a yellow robe over my shoulders?!"
