Doomsday Club

Chapter 40: Join Us

What is it like in Sky City?

Before actually climbing up there, Xu Nuo had many guesses.

A massive military fortress?

Internal controls are strict, and everything is firmly controlled by the organization on the other side.

Or perhaps it's like the world depicted in Cyberpunk, where the massive, all-powerful "Arasaka Corporation" stands atop Sky City.

But when they finally arrived at Sky City after ascending in the elevator, they discovered that this place was completely different from what they had imagined.

"What happened? Are you injured?"

The elevator doors opened, revealing a room that resembled a laboratory.

Someone noticed the bloodstains on Xu Nuo and Lin Xiaoxiao's clothes and asked them with concern.

Thanks to the bloodstains on the helmet, they didn't realize that someone else had already been replaced inside the clothes.

"It's alright, the Dust People's rebellion has been resolved."

After giving a vague reply, Xu Nuo and Lin Xiaoxiao naturally walked into the room with the incubator in their arms.

"Just throw the stuff away, you two go wash up."

Upon hearing that it was the blood of a commoner, everyone around immediately scattered far away as if avoiding a plague.

Seeing their reaction, Xu Nuo responded and casually placed the insulated box on the ground.

Soon someone came over with disinfectant and sprayed it indiscriminately onto the incubator.

It's as if if they don't disinfect, they'll be infected with the virus carried by the dusty people in the next second.

"Xiao Li, remember to send it to Harbin in a couple of days."

"Okay, okay."

Xu Nuo gave a vague reply.

He didn't know who the other person was calling, so he just answered first.

However, the other party mentioned Harbin again, and it sounded like the place that actually needed these organs was Sky City in Harbin.

Send it over? How do I send it over?

Do they have any other means of transportation?

Xu Nuo tried hard to extract information from the conversation.

They followed the signs for the emergency exits together until they finally arrived at the stairwell. The two of them looked out through the stairwell window.

Neon lights flicker in the darkness.

On the projection in the sky, the giant hourglass symbol shone brightly.

The Other Shore Organization...

Xu Nuo and Lin Xiaoxiao exchanged a glance, and finally took off their heavy protective suits when no one was around in the hallway.

Xu Nuo is alright; her fair skin makes her look no different from those celestial beings outside.

But Lin Xiaoxiao was different; her skin was dark and rough, and she looked like a wasteland dweller.

However, there are ways to do it.

When the two walked out of the building, Lin Xiaoxiao was already wearing the mask she had taken from the Doomsday Lord.

Covering your face and putting your hands in your pockets makes you less noticeable.

Although it was late at night, there were still many people on the streets.

The streetlights illuminated the street as if it were daytime, and the shops along the street were lit with warm-colored lights.

On a large screen on a high-rise building, promotional videos about the Other Shore organization are playing on a loop.

"Seven major cities await your arrival."

"As long as you make outstanding contributions, you will have the opportunity to join the company and transfer your household registration to one of the seven major cities."

On the large screen, the host is introducing the so-called seven main cities.

Passersby occasionally stopped to watch the video, and when they heard "the seven major cities," their eyes were filled with longing.

Soon, the longing in his eyes was replaced by disappointment.

For those of them who were born in the Edge Sky City, advancing to the main city was practically a pipe dream.

Xu Nuo kept his hood up, trying to conceal his appearance, and observed the scenery of Sky City from all sides.

Suddenly, the host on the big screen seemed to freeze.

The video, which was playing on a loop, suddenly stopped.

On the big screen, the host suddenly seemed to come alive and looked in the direction where Xu Nuo was.

"Seize him! Destroyer of Worlds!"

"Grab him! And you can join the other side!"

"Capture him! And you'll be promoted to the main city!"

The next second, a spotlight descended from the sky, fixing firmly on Xu Nuo and Lin Xiaoxiao.

At the same time, the host's stiff face appeared on all the surrounding screens.

His mouth opened and closed, repeating like a puppet: "Grab him! Grab him! Grab him!"

"Run!"

Noticing the intense gazes of passersby, Xu Nuo grabbed Lin Xiaoxiao and ran away.

Damn it!

No wonder this sky city looks like it's full of ordinary people. Apart from these promotional videos and the huge logo in the sky, there wasn't even a trace of the Other Shore Organization.

It turns out the entire city is controlled by artificial intelligence!

The allure of joining the seven major cities was simply too great for the residents of this sky city.

They chased after Xu Nuo relentlessly, looking almost like a zombie horde had broken out.

Above them, the spotlight remained fixed on their positions.

When there was finally no way to escape, Xu Nuo and Lin Xiaoxiao stood on the edge of the city, with a bottomless abyss below.

This is not the ground, but a sky city suspended in the air.

With her back to the edge of the city, Xu Nuo looked at the frenzied crowd in front of her and the artificial intelligence on the big screen.

"Who exactly are you?"

"the other side."

"Why do you want to destroy the world?!"

"We are simply saving humanity."

"fart!"

"Xu Nuo, you are changing history."

On the giant screen of the tallest building, countless faces were pieced together to form an expression that resembled a mosaic.

His mouth opened and closed: "Give up, join us."

"By discarding the outdated past, we will lead humanity toward a new era of prosperity."

"Fuck you!"

Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly spoke, glaring angrily at the enormous human face: "Where is my father?!"

Then, in the next second, the face changed its appearance.

A refined middle-aged man's face appeared on the big screen: "Xiaoxiao, I've been waiting for you for a long time. Come join us."

A chill ran down my back.

Xu Nuo and Lin Xiaoxiao looked at the approaching crowd and felt that Sky City was even crazier than the wasteland.

The entire Sky City was controlled by artificial intelligence, and this thing seemed to know them very well.

Nobody knows what will happen if you get caught by these guys, but it probably won't be anything good.

If this artificial intelligence imprisons him, he might never be able to return to the real world in his lifetime.

Thinking about this...

Xu Nuo cursed under his breath and jumped off without hesitation.

Feeling the wind whistling past my ears, I felt a sense of peace I had never experienced before.

"bump!"

It was accompanied by the sound of a heavy object hitting the ground.

In her home in the real timeline, Xu Nuo wakes up in bed.

Recalling his experience on Sky City, his forehead was covered in a fine layer of cold sweat.

If I hesitated even for a moment, I might have been caught by that group of people.

If I get caught, it's hard to say whether I'll be able to come back.

"This is fucking weird..."

Xu Nuo murmured to himself.
