Doomsday Club

Chapter 7: Alone

As Xu Nuo entered the market masked, she couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions.

He thought he could find out the truth about the apocalypse through Lin Xiaoxiao, but after the clues came together, he ended up back here.

Looking at the familiar scene before me, and the familiar guards.

He curled the corners of his mouth into a slightly pleased smile.

What a twist of fate! You damned bastard!

Looking at the young guard chatting leisurely with his companion not far away, his eyes were full of ill intent.

Instead of causing trouble right away, they pretended to be looking for the supplies they needed, just like any other survivors who had come to the market normally.

He turned his head and glanced discreetly at the location of Lin Xiaoxiao outside the city.

This girl is smarter and stronger than I thought.

He had already realized his "disadvantage" as a time traveler twenty years later, and couldn't help but think about recruiting Lin Xiaoxiao into his team.

He is indeed a time traveler, and he is also capable of being reborn.

However, his limitations are also significant.

Each time, he only has a maximum of twenty days to investigate the truth, and in such a short time, the information he can obtain is actually very limited.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have spent so much time investigating, even going to every corner of Ning City, but the information they obtained was not as much as the progress made by talking to Lin Xiaoxiao, a "local".

Because he doesn't know history.

For him, the twenty years from the outbreak of the apocalypse to the present are a blank.

At this point, a "comrade-in-arms" who knows the history of the past twenty years in the current timeline becomes very important.

They can complement each other perfectly.

Just like now.

After years of investigation, Lin Xiaoxiao finally pinpointed the market to the clues she had gathered.

However, the Doomsday Lord's armed forces were simply too powerful. For Lin Xiaoxiao to come to the market to investigate clues based on her own words would be no different from suicide.

Forget about investigating the Doomsday Lord, the guards of the outer market alone would be enough to give her a hard time.

Resources are extremely limited in the apocalypse, especially firearms, which are among the rarest and most valuable resources.

Even the Doomsday Lord only has one pistol.

Therefore, handguns are simply a form of superhuman strength, like a cheat code.

Let alone these malnourished, post-apocalyptic rats suffering from solar radiation, even a Siberian tiger wouldn't be able to withstand a single shot.

But Xu Nuo was different—the market was dangerous, and the firearms were powerful, but he had unlimited resources to try and fail, and he wouldn't stop until he succeeded.

Furthermore, he can even utilize [future intelligence] in this process.

Just like now—

A breeze began to rise.

The originally dark sky gradually turned reddish.

Do you remember the sandstorm that happened three days later?

This is why he dared to venture into the market alone.

The rusty dagger slipped from his sleeve and was held in Xu Nuo's hand.

The next second, it thrust out suddenly.

The young guard clearly hadn't expected anyone to actually dare to make a move in the market. He clutched his neck and stared at the madman in front of him with a look of terror on his face.

"I already said that."

Xu Nuo smiled and said, "I will remember you."

Blood flowed from the carotid artery in his neck, and no matter how hard he tried to cover his neck, it was to no avail.

"Who the hell are you...?" he struggled to speak, blood gushing from his mouth and nose.

The guard looked at Xu Nuo, completely baffled as to what this guy was talking about.

Until life was completely drained away along with the blood, Xu Nuo looked at the corpse lying on the ground and finally felt that his mind was at peace.

He certainly didn't offend Xu Nuo in this timeline, but that doesn't mean he didn't offend him in previous timelines.

Kill the guards in the market.

This immediately caused an uproar in the neighborhood.

The market's survivors fled in terror, with the bolder ones even taking advantage of the chaos to loot goods from the stalls.

Hearing the commotion, the guards drew their weapons and quickly surrounded Xu Nuo, ready to capture this madman who dared to defy the authority of the Doomsday Lord.

Just at this time.

The sandstorm has finally arrived.

The sun has just set and the temperature has dropped, but the visibility is not low.

Visible to the naked eye.

A strong wind was howling in the distance, heading towards the market.

The road was swirling with sand and stones, eventually creating a terrifying scene that seemed to be about to devour the heavens and the earth.

"A sandstorm is coming!"

Terrified screams rang out, and no one had time to make any more promises.

Faced with the sandstorm, one's own life is the most important thing. Even the guards are frantically searching for cover, and have no time to care about Xu Nuo.

He dared to take action because he was waiting for this opportunity.

Trying to stir up the market all by yourself is tantamount to suicide, so you need to rely on some external forces.

Taking advantage of the chaos, Xu Nuo did not seek shelter from the sandstorm, but instead ran deeper into the market, relying on her memory.

In his memory, although the sandstorm was fierce, the initial threat was not great.

He was wearing a protective suit, which could temporarily block the damage caused by the wind and sand.

If he moves quickly enough, he can hide in the building where the Doomsday Lord is located before the deadly danger arrives.

"Grab him! Grab him now!"

A guard noticed Xu Nuo's actions, but his voice was drowned out by the howling wind.

With the sandstorm looming, the guard dared not take the risk and could only watch helplessly as the man left.

He turned around and gave everyone the middle finger, but Xu Nuoli didn't even bother to acknowledge them.

As it turned out, his calculations were correct.

Walking with difficulty in the strong wind, enduring the intense pain of sand and stones hitting my body.

Although it hurt a lot, it was not fatal before the sandstorm formed.

When Xu Nuo finally arrived at the building where the Doomsday Lord was located, following his memory, every part of his body ached, as if he had been beaten up.

Due to the sandstorm, all the guards on the perimeter have retreated into the building for shelter.

This gave Xu Nuo the opportunity to successfully approach this place.

Unfortunately, his shortcuts only got him this far.

"The Doomsday Lord was surrounded by about four guards, plus a pistol in his hand."

Xu Nuo hid under the wall, so worried that he kept clicking his tongue.

Even if future intelligence is utilized to the fullest extent and all the right timing and location are maximized, it will only be enough to get close to this position.

"It's a pity, if only I had help." He thought of Lin Xiaoxiao outside the city.

If she helps, things should still be salvageable.

"It's a pity I didn't raise enough favorability points."

She remains highly vigilant and would never come to her death with him.

However, he has already gained enough from this round. At the very least, he now knows the time and cause of the disaster that has been troubling him the most.

"Be content, be content," Xu Nuo comforted himself.

Moreover, the information about the Doomsday Lord in this round is not enough, and bringing Lin Xiaoxiao along would most likely be suicide.

Let's optimize it in the next round.

The strategy of using sandstorms to approach the Doom Lord was correct.

Next, all you need to do is figure out the specific information and tactics inside the building, and then raise Lin Xiaoxiao's favorability.

Thinking this, Xu Nuo kicked open the door.

"The police are conducting a room check!"

"Don't move!"
