Doomsday Club
Chapter 31: Beneath the Mask
In an abandoned building deep within the market.
The battle continues.
The door, kicked open, rattled loudly due to the sandstorm pouring in. Sand and dust filled every corner of the room, making it impossible for the Doomsday Lord to open his eyes, yet he dared not move an inch.
Because Xu Nuo had already finished bandaging his wound, he sat on the boss's table in front of him, curiously examining him.
The battle between Lin Xiaoxiao and her companions and their personal guards was now coming to an end.
"Click..."
With a chilling crack, Old Wang used a joint lock to break his opponent's neck.
Then, he immediately stepped in to help Lin Xiaoxiao and successfully eliminated the last guard.
After a battle.
Xu Nuo was seriously injured, Lin Xiaoxiao was slightly injured, but Lao Wang was still as lively and energetic as if nothing had happened.
The soldiers who came down from the army are really fierce, not to mention Old Wang, a veteran who has won awards in competitions. Beating ordinary people like them is like playing around.
This was his first collaboration with Lao Wang, and Xu Nuo was extremely satisfied.
"Brother Xu Nuo, are you alright?"
Even with such a stunningly beautiful woman beside him injured, Old Wang didn't even glance at her twice.
After the battle was over, he rushed to Xu Nuo's side in three quick steps.
"Not too good."
Seeing Lao Wang approach, Xu Nuo finally couldn't keep up the act anymore.
He coughed up a mouthful of blood that he had been holding back for so long, and his whole body was drenched in cold sweat.
He's not a real superhero, how could he possibly maintain his fighting ability after being shot twice?
The fact that you can sit here without fainting is already a testament to your strong willpower.
If the Doomsday Lord had been even slightly bolder and hadn't been intimidated by himself, that would have been the perfect opportunity for him to kill him.
Unfortunately, there is no such thing.
"you!"
Seeing Xu Nuo's performance, the Doomsday Lord knew exactly what he had missed. He angrily opened his mouth, but Xu Nuo interrupted him with a cold laugh.
"Come on, what are you talking about?"
Xu Nuo glanced disdainfully at the Doomsday Lord: "You don't even dare to make a move against a seriously injured person in front of you, yet someone like you was chosen by the Other Shore to rule the market."
"How do you know about the other side?!"
The Doomsday Lord was truly terrified this time; even his voice became shrill and distorted with fear.
When the words "the other shore" came out of his mouth, even the look in his eyes when he looked at Xu Nuo was full of disbelief.
Xu Nuo did not respond to his shock.
I simply noted down the Doomsday Lord's reaction.
He guessed right; this person's ability to control the market was indeed the work of the Other Shore Organization.
What doomsday lord? In the end, he's just an obedient dog kept by the higher-ups.
Otherwise, someone like him, controlling so many resources, would probably have been beaten to death and hanged long ago.
Do they really think the apocalypse is that easy to get through?
If there's an organization from the other side involved behind him, then all of this makes perfect sense.
It was at this moment that the Doomsday Lord also noticed the strangeness between Old Wang and Xu Nuo.
A forty-year-old middle-aged man calling a young man in his early twenties "brother"?
This relationship is so messed up!
The Doomsday Lord looked at the two people in front of him, his eyes filled with surprise.
Having been observing the Doomsday Lord's reaction, Xu Nuo naturally noticed the other's gaze.
"You don't recognize me?"
Letting Lao Wang treat her injuries, Xu Nuo suddenly turned her head and asked with interest.
"I know him, but I don't know him."
Upon hearing the promise, the Doomsday Lord nodded and then shook his head.
That's the good thing about this thing.
Cowardly enough, timid enough, and able to recognize the situation clearly.
We were at their mercy, like fish on a chopping board. Now that they had been promised control of the situation, they answered our questions with utmost decisiveness.
If it were a tough nut to crack, they would really have to rack their brains.
"I know you because you are the destroyer of worlds."
The Doomsday Lord casually explained, "But I've only ever seen your picture."
Never seen it before?
To everyone's surprise, Xu Nuo raised an eyebrow after hearing this and suddenly seemed to be in a good mood.
"Old Wang! Take that mask off!"
"Alright."
Even after winning the battle, Xu Nuo has not taken off the mask of the Doomsday Lord since he entered the room.
Without him.
He was genuinely afraid that if the mask were removed, Wu Tian's face would be revealed.
All the evidence they have gathered so far points to one conclusion—the Doomsday Lord is Wu Tian.
Whether it's a familiar voice, a relationship between people, or an age.
He couldn't think of anyone else besides Wu Tian.
Now, hearing the Doomsday Lord say that he had never seen him, his heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally settled down.
The mask on the Doomsday Lord's face was finally removed, revealing a middle-aged man who looked very honest.
He has an honest and unassuming appearance, but the sclera showing when his eyes move reveals his true nature.
Xu Nuo took a closer look and examined it carefully for a long time, but finally sighed with regret.
The good news is: this guy isn't Wu Tian.
The bad news is: I have absolutely no recollection of this person.
But that doesn't make sense!
He turned to look at Lin Xiaoxiao beside him. She understood what Xu Nuo meant and shook her head in perfect unison.
She didn't recognize this person either.
I know myself and Lin Xiaoxiao, and I feel that his voice is very familiar.
Neither he nor Lin Xiaoxiao had any recollection of this person.
They appeared out of nowhere, complete strangers.
However, they did not show any of these emotions.
Instead, he started asking other questions.
"Who exactly controls the Other Shore Organization?"
Xu Nuo asked, "And why do they want to destroy the world?"
He directly addresses the core issue, which is also his biggest concern right now.
He could feel his life slipping away rapidly, and with no idea how much longer he could hold on, he chose the safest approach.
"I have no idea."
The Doomsday Lord gave a wry smile: "You're taking me way too seriously."
"I'm just a dog kept by those higher up. How could I possibly know anything about the big shots up there?"
"I'm not even qualified to get close to Sky City; I can only serve as a butler for those big shots down here."
As expected.
Xu Nuo nodded noncommittally, feeling somewhat disappointed but not entirely surprised by the answer.
During the last cycle, when Sky City was attacked, the fate of the Doomsday Lord was completely ignored.
An indiscriminate overlay attack was launched.
Let's move on to the next question.
"Why do you call me the Destroyer of Worlds?"
"What does this title mean?"
This time, not only Xu Nuo was curious about the question, but even Lin Xiaoxiao looked over.
This title is truly remarkable.
The destroyer of the world...
Xu Nuo racked his brains but still couldn't understand why those bastards on the other side had given him such a villainous title.
