Surviving in a Collapsed World, Is Something Wrong?

"Lady Yulandel...why are you here?"

Jiang Ming stared at the blonde girl in front of him and tried hard to suppress the smile in his heart.

"..."

"Ahem, sir, you got the wrong person. I'm not Yulandel. I'm just an ordinary guest."

Yulandel coughed twice and denied Jiang Ming's words.

Is she so bad at lying... She just made her body airtight, anyone who has seen her can see that, right?

Adhering to the principle of seeing through but not speaking out, Jiang Ming could only sigh helplessly.

"Okay~ Well then...long time no see, Lady Bianca."

"?!"

"?"

Hearing this name, not only Yulandel, but even Mei couldn't help but open their eyes wide. Mei could naturally tell that the person in front of her was Yulandel, but Mei had never heard of the name Bianca... Yulandel was just a little shocked. The name didn't really matter.

"So... even the famous Lady Bianca has come out. It seems like something is really happening on this ship?"

Jiang Ming sat next to Youlandel and spoke in a voice that only the two of them could hear. Although Meiyi was a little unhappy inside, as Jiang Ming said, since even the strongest S-class Valkyrie has been dispatched, she is afraid that something big is going to happen. Her strength is far inferior to theirs, so it is better not to cause trouble.

Therefore, Mei took the initiative to ask Yuexia to take her out for a walk. In fact, Yuexia only wanted to stay with Jiang Ming, and wanted to refuse at first, but when Jiang Ming nodded to her, she agreed. Yuexia also nodded obediently, holding Meiyi's hand and leaving the lounge.

"Can you tell me now? There are only two of us at this table."

Jiang Ming supported his chin with the back of his hands and looked at Yulandel with a serious expression, hoping to get an answer from her, but Yulandel shook her head.

"Sorry, this is a special mission, I can't tell you."

Hearing this, Jiang Ming did not show any frustration. He just stood up slightly and said helplessly.

"Okay~ Since you won't tell me, I'll go find Rita. I'm sure she'll tell me about it."

After saying that, he pretended to go find Rita.

"Hey......"

"Okay, I'll tell you."

Yulandel had no choice but to agree to him.

'Hehe, it's so easy to fool.'

In fact, Jiang Ming didn’t know that Rita was also on this ship, but since Yulandel was there, Rita, who was mainly responsible for taking care of Yulandel, might also be there. Jiang Ming just made a bold bet.

"Oh yeah, why don't you take off some of your clothes?"

Jiang Ming made a suggestion.

"You are wrapped up so tightly, I guess it will be inconvenient for you to move around later. Who taught you to dress like this? Your appearance and temperament haven't changed at all..."

"Eh? Really? I thought I was hiding well."

Yulandel couldn't help scratching her head.

"...Who is wrapped up so tightly and sitting so straight? And can you cover up your blonde hair? It's very obvious."

"And... forget it. Let Rita help you with your clothes and stuff. Let's talk about this incident first. I'm sure you're not here on vacation like us, are you?"

"Vacation?"

"Yeah, a friend of mine won a ticket for ten people on this ship, so it's like a vacation, what's the matter?"

"Ah... I heard that the bishop once told me that someone would assist me in this mission, but it was not Rita. After I asked, he didn't say anything until I met you."

"......"

"I *him...."

So...these two people with the strongest destiny talked for a long time but still couldn't get to the point...

......

"I was wondering why it only took two days and one night. It turns out this old guy is responsible."

Jiang Ming took a sip of black tea angrily.

"How strong are you now?"

"It's just so-so. If I meet Chi You again, I should be able to win more beautifully."

"Is it......"

"Ah, no, no...Aren't we talking about this mission?"

"Ah, it seems so."

The two of them reacted belatedly.

"Ahem, let me explain."

......

"You said... someone installed Houkai Energy Crystal on this ship?"

Jiang Ming's expression began to become solemn.

"Yes."

Yulandel nodded and lowered her head to take a sip of black tea.

"Hmm... not as good as Rita's."

"really."

Jiang Ming nodded in seconding the motion.

"Ah, no, now is not the time to talk about this."

“Who installed it?”

"I don't know."

"Where is the exact location?"

"I don't know."

"...Then what do you know?"

Jiang Ming's face gradually became ugly, and Youlandel took another sip of black tea.

"Rita said: Once you, Jiang Ming, come, this matter will be easily solved."

"..."

"6"

After holding it in for a long time, Jiang Ming finally uttered the number "6".

"Aren't you in a hurry?"

Jiang Ming couldn't help but ask.

"What's the rush?"

"I am worried about the lives on this ship."

But who would have thought that Youlandel would chuckle rarely and said with some pride.

"More than half of the people on this ship have been replaced by Destiny's Valkyries in advance, especially the chefs, security guards, and staff from various regions. We don't need to panic at all."

"what?"

Jiang Ming began to look at the other people in the lounge. As expected, if you didn't look carefully, you would think they were just ordinary people. But who was Jiang Ming? He could sense that everyone had a weak Honkai energy in their bodies. As for those men, they were the Valkyries who had transformed themselves after dressing up. Regardless of gender, their eyes would more or less be on him and Youlan Daier. He didn't notice it because he was nervous at the beginning.

"So you are the one with the worst disguise on this ship, Lord Yulandel?"

When Jiang Ming learned that there were almost Valkyries on the ship, he became calm and started to tease Yulandel instead.

"Well, everyone has areas they are not good at, and I am no exception."

"Yes, yes, but Tianming is really rich and powerful. They have installed Houkai Energy Crystals on the ship. Don't you think about removing them?"

After thinking it over again and again, Jiang Ming finally asked the question in his mind.

"Rita will figure it out."

"Is it......"

boom!

Before Jiang Ming could finish his words, a violent explosion sounded, shaking the entire ship, and the screams of ordinary people were also heard.

"......Hello."

"It was just an accident."

Jiang Ming and Youlandel quickly put the cup and tray that were about to fall to the ground back on the table.

At the same time, the sense of disharmony that enveloped the lounge made Jiang Ming frown. The lounge became quiet, and about ten men walked in, followed by the noise and screams that appeared again.

The men who came in were holding automatic rifles, wearing hoods, dressed in black, and were all burly.

"Ah, here they come. By the way, do you know who the other party is?"

"I don't know. They should be just ordinary criminals, right?"

"Just a simple ship hijacking?"

"Yes."

"Who would have the Honkai Energy Crystal just to hijack a ship?"

"In that case, let me..."

"Hey, there are a few ordinary people here. It's not convenient to take action."

Jiang Ming quickly called out to Youlandel.

"Hey, you two, what are you talking about!"

Jiang Ming had just stopped Youlandel when a man who looked like a leader stood in front of them.

"Oh no, nothing."

Jiang Ming waved his hand in boredom.

"you!"

Just when the leading man was about to lose his temper, a thin man suddenly came to the leader's side and said something in his ear. After listening, the leader showed a satisfied expression and nodded.

"Oh? Really? Bring it on and show it to me."

"Yes!"

The thin man responded and left the lounge, and the leader seemed to have lost interest in them as well. By the way, Yulandel was still wrapped up in her entire body at this time.

After a short while, the thin man walked in with two girls. In just a moment, Jiang Ming's expression became extremely cold, and he understood why the leader behaved like that just now.

Because those two girls were Mei and Yuexia.

Just when Jiang Ming was about to take action, Yulandel grabbed him. Jiang Ming looked at her coldly. Yulandel stopped him with the same reason that Jiang Ming had not affected ordinary people just now, and explained that Raiden Mei was not an ordinary girl, so he asked him to restrain himself first.

"..."

"Hey, Boss, what did I say?"

"Hmm~ Very good. It seems that hijacking a ship is indeed much more interesting than doing other things. It's worth all the things I worked so hard to get. As long as I can do a few more orders... hehe."

The leader showed an obscene smile, which made not only the Valkyries present but also ordinary people feel sick when they saw it.

"Bring them both up to me."

"Okay, boss!"

Just when the thin man was about to touch Mei, Mei dodged in disgust, which completely angered the man, and he no longer cared about his image and attacked directly.

But the next moment, the thin man began to tremble all over, his pupils dilated, but before he could scream, the guy disappeared from the spot in an instant.

The sudden scene made everyone in the lounge unable to react until...

“Ahhh, ahhhhh————?!!!”

A fierce scream was heard, easily drowning out all the screams on the entire ship. It was obviously made by the thin man. This also made the people in the lounge tremble all over, because the scream was so tragic that it was no exaggeration to say that it was like experiencing the eighteen levels of hell.

"Who? Who is pretending?"

The leader was obviously frightened and looked around quickly, but he didn't see anything unusual. Until his eyes habitually looked in the direction of Jiang Ming, he found that the man had disappeared.

"Hey you!"

The leader pointed at Yulandel.

"Where's that of the man who just sat here?!"

But Yulandel sighed and continued to drink the black tea in her hand.

Just as the leader was about to threaten her with a gun, everyone except himself disappeared silently in the lounge.
