Did You Destroy the World Today?
Chapter 21: Tell Me Your Name

“Planetary Reincarnation?”

“That name sounds pretty cringy...”

Jiang Xingye’s message came back, and Lin Xu was momentarily stunned.

This reaction...

Didn’t seem fake.

No, what do you mean one moment it’s heaven and the next it’s hell?!

I thought the truth was right in front of me, but it was just a coincidence?

But that seemed normal too.

Even if such an organization existed, they wouldn’t just accept anyone.

Right now, Jiang Xingye was still a nobody in the industry...

So actually, she wasn’t part of the organization at all, maybe didn’t even know about it?

Lin Xu frowned, hesitated for a moment, then placed his finger back on the phone screen.

Lin Xu:

“It really is pretty cringy... I don’t think anyone would believe such a theory.”

Jiang Xingye:

“That’s not necessarily true.”

“There are people who believe in such theories, but no one would choose a name like that.”

“That’s way too cringy...”

It’s not me who’s cringy, it’s you guys!

Lin Xu couldn’t help but laugh and cry.

There was no way to get more information from her.

She wasn’t the big villain being hunted by the authorities yet, just a clueless girl who would actively share marketing account news with guys.

After casually brushing off Jiang Xingye with a few words, he put down his phone.

To investigate further, he had to enter the Bracelet World again.

Coincidentally, the documents for the two materials hadn’t been fully completed; he had to go in to find them anyway.

Lin Xu found a comfortable position and lay back on the bed, lightly touching the bracelet, and his consciousness was drained away...

“So—”

“Shut up.”

Lin Xu raised his hand.

“The plan has changed. We need to rush to the Donghua Chemical Fiber Factory, 32 kilometers away.”

“You all must arrive within 20 minutes. Take the ring road from your current location, then exit at the intersection of the G25 and G42 highways.”

“Gather intelligence on the way, and release drones for reconnaissance as you get close.”

“The situation at Donghua Chemical Fiber Factory is complicated. The factory has its own security force, but their equipment is average.”

“The enemy’s advantage is holding favorable defensive terrain and plenty of cover. We must get through quickly.”

“The demolitions expert can start preparing the explosives.”

“The metal gate at the entrance is about 10 centimeters thick. Blowing it up won’t work. We’ll destroy the gate bearings and unhinge it.”

“The rest of the combat team will prioritize eliminating snipers on the watchtowers and sentries at the gate.”

“Once inside, spread out quickly. Our target is the office building on the southeast side of the factory.”

“Remember, speed is critical!”

As he finished speaking, the people in the vehicle exchanged glances.

Skull Head’s hand paused in midair while checking his gun. He looked at Lin Xu in surprise and asked:

“Wait, am I commanding or are you?”

“You’re in charge of frontline battlefield command!”

Lin Xu answered decisively.

“Also, once you arrive, quickly establish electromagnetic shielding.”

“But from experience, our shielding can only last about three minutes at most. After that, the official electromagnetic countermeasures will kick in.”

“So we must get into the main office building within three minutes.”

“Start driving now!”

“...Understood.”

Skull Head nodded and raised his hand to issue orders to the other mercenaries.

The convoy quickly advanced toward Donghua Chemical Fiber Factory. Following Lin Xu’s instructions, Skull Head rapidly searched public map information, roughly confirming the factory’s layout, then switched to a more detailed satellite map for further combat deployment.

As he studied the maps, his expression grew serious.

“Have you been to Donghua Chemical Fiber Factory?”

“Yes.”

Lin Xu answered casually, then suddenly seemed to remember something and said:

“By the way, don’t rely too much on your electric-induced camouflage.”

“The lighting inside the chemical fiber factory is very bright, with good illumination. The camouflage effect from electric-induced camouflage is barely effective.”

“You knew that?”

Skull Head was shocked.

“I know a lot more.”

“Give me your gun.”

Lin Xu reached out, and Skull Head, still doubtful, handed over his spare weapon.

“You know how to use it...”

*Click!*

Lin Xu habitually pulled back the bolt to check the weapon, then grabbed the magazine on Skull Head’s knee and inserted it into the chest rig outside his bulletproof vest.

His movements were practiced, as if he had done this countless times before.

—Which was indeed the case.

Skull Head grew even more surprised.

He eyed Lin Xu suspiciously, and by this time, the convoy was already approaching the outskirts of Donghua Chemical Fiber Factory.

“42 minutes left, not bad this time.”

“Release the drone!”

At Lin Xu’s order, everyone looked at Skull Head.

Skull Head gritted his teeth.

“Release the drone!”

“Prepare to attack!”

He didn’t ask more questions. His usual “professional ethics” temporarily suppressed his doubts.

Anyway, he was working for the client.

Just do the job.

The action team disembarked all at once. Lin Xu raised his hand, pointing toward the high ground:

“Two watchtowers at 10 o’clock and 2 o’clock, two snipers!”

*Rat! Rat!*

Soft gunshots sounded as two mercenaries eliminated the snipers on the watchtowers.

At the same time, the guards at the main gate were also taken care of.

“Set directional explosives to breach the door!”

Lin Xu pointed at the gate.

Seconds later, a huge explosion blasted the gate open.

“Enter!”

“Watch for narrow passages, stay alert for doors and windows along the factory buildings.”

As he spoke, Lin Xu raised his hand.

*Bang! Bang! Bang!—*

A short burst of shots, and the enemy who had previously shot off one of Lin Xu’s ears instantly fell.

The enemy didn’t even have time to aim.

His head had just peeked out from behind cover when Lin Xu squeezed the trigger. The bullets covered his neck and upper chest.

That was the preemptive shot.

Continuing to advance, Lin Xu issued another order:

“Throw smoke grenades, enter the main office building!”

This time, no one questioned his orders.

Everyone could feel how smoothly this assault was organized under his command.

No surprises, no pauses, no wasted resources, not a second of unnecessary waiting.

Advancing and fighting all the way, when the enemies were wiped out, the team had already reached the target building’s door.

“One person near the left corner, one person at the right far corner, suppress them.”

After saying this, Skull Head was completely stunned.

What’s the most dangerous part of CQB building assault?

Not knowing the enemy’s location!

To observe the enemy’s position, you have to stand in the deadly choke point at the doorway, and entering that area multiplies the risk.

But now, with Lin Xu’s information, that danger no longer existed.

He made a hand signal, and two team members raised their rifles and entered.

*Bang! Bang! Bang!—*

Gunshots rang out, and enemies inside the office building fell immediately.

“Go upstairs!”

Lin Xu ordered again.

“Take the stairs, use two flashbangs at the stairwell corners.”

“Watch out for shotguns!”

“Understood.”

The assault team threw flashbangs toward the stairs. A loud buzzing noise filled the air, and Lin Xu temporarily lost hearing.

But he didn’t stop moving, following closely behind Skull Head as they ascended the stairs.

A few more shots rang out, and the shotgun wielder who had seriously injured him before collapsed.

“Clear the second-floor rooms, grab the hostages!”

“There should be two people here, bring them quickly!”

“Got it, moving!”

Skull Head issued the order, then stared at Lin Xu in disbelief.

“Not big brother?”

“You’re back??”

“How do you know everything??”

“High tech, don’t ask.”

Lin Xu answered casually.

Meanwhile, two hostages were dragged out from the corner by mercenaries.

Lin Xu recognized one of them.

Without hesitation, he raised his gun and shot the other person in the knee.

*Bang!*

“Ahhhhh—”

A scream erupted.

“You can evacuate the building.”

Lin Xu turned to Skull Head.

“The quick reaction force is coming. They won’t hold back.”

“Quick reaction force??”

Skull Head was dumbfounded.

“Damn! How did we get on their radar??”

“Go, hurry!”

“Wait, you’re not leaving?”

“I’m not leaving. I guess I’m going to die here.”

Lin Xu replied calmly.

Skull Head’s eyes revealed a hint of admiration.

But he still resolutely gave the retreat order.

Lin Xu ignored him and dragged the hostages toward the office. After getting the computer, he took them to the most secluded storeroom in the corner of the office building.

“Open the industrial production process documents for M46X and PEEK-RTM materials.”

“Also, I have some questions.”

“Answer carefully, I promise you’ll be fine!”

The hostage nodded repeatedly in fear. Lin Xu asked:

“Have you seen the earliest patent information released by Planetary Reincarnation?”

“The inventor listed on the patent is the fugitive from Planetary Reincarnation later wanted by the authorities.”

“Now tell me, what is that person’s name?!”
