Doomsday Club

He sighed, feeling a bit of a headache.

As a lifelong single, Xu Nuo is really not good at interacting with the opposite sex.

Not to mention she's a member of the opposite sex who has survived the ordeal of the apocalypse and is extremely wary of everything.

Recalling his first encounter with Lin Xiaoxiao, Xu Nuo thought for a moment, and a new idea came to him.

By taking advantage of the shipwreck effect.

Simply put, it means appearing to help Lin Xiaoxiao when she encounters a crisis.

This method is a bit unethical.

But if one wants to get close to Lin Xiaoxiao twenty years in the future, this is clearly the best option to gain her trust.

If I remember correctly.

At that time, she was being followed by several doomsday rats.

Twenty years later, a relatively well-known small group in Ning City consists of three adult men in their early twenties who, relying on their strength and physique, frequently rob other survivors of their supplies and even commit murder and robbery.

Those targeted by them, especially women, often suffer a tragic fate.

This is what the end of the world is like.

Without the constraints of law and society, relying solely on one's own meager sense of morality, a person becomes a lowly beast controlled by desire.

However, as far as I can remember, their plan still failed.

In the end, not only did they manage to get Lin Xiaoxiao away with serious injuries, but they even managed to kill one of them.

The remaining unlucky guys then set their sights on Xu Nuo, who then repeatedly saved the game and eliminated the scourge for the people.

Think about it now.

It really is quite a coincidence.

As the number on his watch, representing the number of times he had traveled through time, changed from "two" to "one," Xu Nuo opened his eyes again and found himself back at the familiar resurrection point.

Having scouted the location in advance, Xu Nuo waited patiently in the darkness for Lin Xiaoxiao and the others to arrive.

Even the location chosen is carefully considered.

It was the only route Lin Xiaoxiao would take to escape after being injured in her first battle.

The main point is to lend a helping hand in times of crisis, aiming to provide timely assistance.

This place looks like an abandoned community, but judging from its size, it's the kind of high-end community that only the wealthy can afford to live in.

However, twenty years have passed and the neighborhood is now completely dilapidated.

Those once luxurious and exquisitely decorated villas are now dilapidated, and the Roman columns used for landscaping in the park have all broken in the middle.

The cement road had long since collapsed, forming a pothole, which became Xu Nuo's hiding place.

"They're here!"

I heard some noise in the distance.

In the darkness, Xu Nuo lowered his body even further.

Since we've decided to help, what could be a more cost-effective option than a sneak attack?

……

"Hey beautiful! Don't run away!"

"Come over here and let us guys have some fun."

"Go to hell, go home and play with your mom."

As usual, Lin Xiaoxiao launched into a barrage of verbal attacks, spouting cheesy phrases from traditional Chinese culture.

And behind her.

Like a cat playing with a mouse, those bastards noticed Lin Xiaoxiao's injury and stopped chasing after her.

He followed her at a leisurely pace, enjoying the thrill of chasing his prey.

"Damn it!"

Lin Xiaoxiao cursed under her breath.

She was injured while searching for supplies, and then she ran into the doomsday rats.

As a fellow survivor from Ning City, she had naturally heard of these guys' reputations.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they're infamous.

Falling into their hands would likely be worse than death.

With a fierce determination in her heart, Lin Xiaoxiao had decided that if she couldn't escape, she would fight them to the death.

Just then, she noticed someone waving at her from not far away.

It was acting suspiciously, crouching in the nearby cement pit with only its head sticking out.

It was too dark to see clearly, but she was sure she wasn't mistaken.

Are they here to help me?

Or is he an accomplice?

If he is an accomplice, then I am in grave danger this time.

Three people can still fight to the death, but four...

Lin Xiaoxiao wasn't sure, but for some reason, she just wanted to trust this guy just this once.

Gripping the knife tightly, Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly ran towards Xu Nuo's direction.

He stared nervously ahead, ready to deal with the immediate trouble if Xu Nuo made even the slightest move to attack him.

"They really didn't attack me..." She couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. "I made the right bet."

"Can't run anymore?"

"Ready to let us guys have some fun?"

"I'll definitely make you scream out in pleasure."

"Go home and have some fun with your mom, you piece of trash!" Still sharp-tongued, Lin Xiaoxiao started with a string of traditional Chinese phrases.

Seeing Lin Xiaoxiao slow down, they assumed she couldn't run anymore and excitedly shouted.

Those brothers are really lucky today.

You can run into such an amazing beauty as soon as you step outside.

That figure, those legs...

Wow, just thinking about it makes my mouth water.

Just as they were indulging in wild fantasies.

A figure suddenly jumped out of the collapsed cement pit next to them.

A steel pipe tied with a kitchen knife looks like Guan Yu reincarnated from a distance.

He swung the weapon down in a wide arc—the man raised his hand to block, but with a 'crack' sound, his arm snapped off!

Blood gushed out, scalding hot blood spraying onto his companion's face. The sudden situation stunned him for a moment.

Just as Xu Nuo was about to make his move, Lin Xiaoxiao saw this and, without hesitation, turned back, enduring the pain, and joined the battle.

"Fuck you! You idiot!"

With a "thud," another person fell to the ground.

In just one exchange, their seamless teamwork instantly eliminated two members of the opposing team, leaving the last survivor with the lingering look of excitement on his face.

Ugh, a complete reversal.

Xu Nuo weighed the weapon in his hand, his eyes filled with ill intent as he looked at the other person.

You have to understand that he's not some post-apocalyptic native who suffers from constant sun radiation and goes hungry and cold.

In terms of physical fitness, he completely outclasses these post-apocalyptic rats.

Two against one.

The advantage lies with me!

"The battle came to an abrupt end as Lin Xiaoxiao stabbed the last person in the heart."

Xu Nuo turned his head and saw her expressionlessly drawing her knife. The swift movement sent a chill down his spine, and he couldn't help but recall the time when this older woman had stabbed him.

"Thanks, bro." Lin Xiaoxiao wiped the blood from her face, her voice hoarse.

"It's nothing, I just saw injustice on the road." Xu Nuo forced a 'harmless' smile.

Lin Xiaoxiao smiled noncommittally and looked up at him: "Seeing injustice on the road?"

She chuckled softly, "Those good people... they're all dead by now."

Then came an eerie silence.

Just as he was about to break down, she spoke again: "You called me because you need something, right?"

It wasn't a question; the tone was full of unquestionable confirmation.

It's fair to say that young people in their early twenties simply can't compete with older women in the apocalypse.

"..."

Hearing this, Xu Nuo sighed.

What kind of bullshit hero saves the beauty... This kind of clichéd plot only works on the love-struck heroines in romance novels.

The reality is—the beautiful woman saw through your ill intentions long ago.

Just like Lin Xiaoxiao said, this is the end of the world, and all the good-natured people are long gone.

They risked their lives to save people for no apparent reason.

Such people are either after sex or something else.

The promise clearly belongs to the latter.

So he stopped faking his smile and looked at Lin Xiaoxiao seriously: "I just want to know something: when exactly did the apocalypse begin, and what kind of disaster was it? Very few people survived that disaster; I've only ever seen you."

After these two encounters with Lin Xiaoxiao, he roughly understood.

When facing Lin Xiaoxiao, being honest makes communication easier.

To everyone's surprise, after hearing Xu Nuo's words, Lin Xiaoxiao's expression suddenly turned playful.

Then, with great interest, he began to speak:

"You didn't know?"
