Surviving in a Collapsed World, Is Something Wrong?

"Hey, Kiana—"

As soon as Jiang Ming came out of the villa, he saw Kiana holding a pile of snow in her hands and doing something unknown.

"Oh, Mei, you're here!"

When Jiang Ming and Mei were waving and talking to Kiana, a big snowball appeared behind Kiana who turned around. The petite girls who were collecting some branches as snowman parts also raised their heads.

"Ah...Brother Jiang Ming, Sister Mei."

"Human, you're here!"

The girls, Lin and Yuexia, seemed a little anxious when they saw Jiang Ming coming, so they said in a voice that only they could hear.

"Yuexia, I'll leave the final task to you."

"Okay... okay."

Yuexia used a strength that was totally inconsistent with her petite body to move the carefully made snowball on the ground onto another large snowball. After quickly completing the final operations, they hurried to his side with a smug look on their faces.

"Brother Jiang Ming, look, this is the snowman that Yuexia and I made together."

Compared to Lin's liveliness, Yuexia seems more shy.

"Um...human, do you...like it?"

Jiang Ming looked at the snowman behind them, because it was also the first time for them to see snow, and it was Kiana who told them about the snowman, so their skills were not very proficient, but their efforts could also be clearly felt.

Moreover, even if you don't observe it carefully, you can tell from the outline that the snowman they built is exactly like Jiang Ming. After all, he is the only one among them with short hair...

"Oh, well done, Yuexia, Rin."

Jiang Ming praised from the bottom of his heart.

“Hehe, huh?”

Rin and Yuexia both had looks of joy on their faces.

"Because we were sitting together, thanks to the moon. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to lift such a big snowball."

After saying that, Rin puffed out her chest and said "hum hum". When Yuexia saw Rin doing this, he imitated her movements although a little late. It was super cute.

"Yeah, that's great, that's great."

Jiang Ming really couldn't help it, so he put his hands on their heads and rubbed them gently.

"Hey, by the way, I heard from Sister Kiana that there are many more snow games, such as building igloos and having snowball fights."

Lin smiled with satisfaction and then pretended to be thinking.

"Igloo? Snowball fight?"

After hearing what Lin said, Yuexia became a little interested.

"Well, to put it simply, an igloo is a house in the snow. The snow is piled up in the middle and hollowed out. Although it is made of snow, it is still very warm in the middle."

"..."

After Jiang Ming's brief explanation, Yuexia's ears trembled slightly. It was obvious that she was quite interested.

"Also, in the snowball fight, you play a game where you split into groups and throw snowballs at each other. If you get hit by a snowball, you lose."

"By the way...where's Bronya?"

Jiang Ming looked around and found that Bronya was nowhere to be seen.

"Ah... Bronya... Eh? I saw her just now... Ah, she was there."

Rin also looked around, but did not notice Bronya at first. It was not until Rin habitually looked carefully at the place where she and Bronya separated that she found that she was hiding in the snow.

As expected of the Ural Silver Wolf, its concealment skills are maxed out.

"Hello-Bronya?"

Jiang Ming and others walked towards Bronya while calling her name.

When Bronya heard Jiang Ming's shout, she stood up, brushed off the snow on her body, and walked towards them. It was her action that made Jiang Ming know what she had been doing.

"Oh, those two snowmen are nice, very cute."

Jiang Ming looked at the snowman behind Bronya, a man with short aho-humored hair and some small parts rendering him with a happy smile.

The other one has a (? ? ? ) look on his face. Although he has no expression, but looking at the two snowmen almost touching each other at zero distance, you can tell that this is a warm scene.

"of course."

Bronya wasn't exactly modest, though, and it was clear to hear the pride in her tone.

"This is Bronya's best work."

"Good, good, the best, the best."

Seeing Bronya's expression, Jiang Ming couldn't help but smile bitterly and agreed.

"By the way, Bronya, we were just discussing the game we were going to play, do you want to join us?"

"Build an igloo and have a snowball fight?"

Jiang Ming nodded.

"We have quite a lot of people. If we include Feiyuwan, there are a total of 10 people. It's just a pity that Fu Hua seems to be on a mission again."

At this point, Jiang Ming shook his head helplessly again. The serious A-level Valkyrie was indeed very busy... Fortunately, he was not serious. Of course, Ji Zi was not serious either, so she didn't have any tasks.

"So, do you want to try it?"

Jiang Ming looked at everyone and asked.

Hearing this, Rin and Kiana both looked eager to try. This was the first time for them to experience this game. Rin used to be frail and sickly, so she couldn't even leave the house. Kiana, on the other hand, had no friends to play with because of her childhood experience. She didn't dare to approach others casually, and she didn't dare to stay in one place for too long. So, after Siegfried left, she started a long journey until she met Jiang Ming and the others.

So, Rin called Sakura over, and after some coquettish behavior, Sakura, who originally just wanted to watch, decided to join the game.

When Kiana saw this, she also started to act coquettishly towards Mei.

So, after careful discussion, everyone decided to wait for Theresa to finish her work and for Himeko to sober up before deciding the winner.

.......

"Everyone——! We didn't have to wait long!"

"Hmm~ What are you all doing gathered in the yard?"

Theresa hurried over after quickly completing her task, and Ji Zi, who had finally sobered up, also stretched and walked towards them.

"Hey hey! Snowball fight? I want to play, I want to play!!"

"Oh, so that's why."

After Jiang Ming explained to them, Theresa agreed readily, and her anticipation was even higher than that of Rin and Kiana. However, Jizi was not very interested, so she applied to become a referee, but this did not prevent her from being a fun person.

"but......"

Jizi put her finger on her chin and pretended to think.

"If it's just an ordinary snowball fight, it's too ordinary."

"Then does Mr. Jizi have any suggestions?"

Jizi smiled evilly and made a small request.

"How about this? The losing party must satisfy any one of the winning party's conditions, of course, as long as it does not violate their own principles."

"Eh eh eh?"

"Oh! That's a good suggestion!"

"Bronya, I agree (? ? ?)"

"Any condition..."

"Amusement park..."

"..."

Everyone showed different attitudes, but because the minority obeys the majority, this rule was also incorporated.

"Okay~ Since Teacher Jizi is willing to be the referee, then the nine of us can be divided into three groups. Let's use the fair competition method and use rock-paper-scissors to determine the groups."

Jiang Ming was the first to raise his hand, and in response, everyone raised their hands to play rock-paper-scissors.

"Rock, Scissors...Paper!"

Along with the sound, everyone stretched out their hands in different shapes.

"Okay, how come it turned out... I, Rin and Hiyomaru are in one group, Kiana, Theresa and Bronya are in one group, Sakura, Mei and Yuexia are in one group..."

"..."

The first two groups were fine, but seeing the last group made Jiang Ming break out in cold sweat on his forehead and look a little embarrassed. However, the three of them didn't seem to care and even looked very happy, but this made Jiang Ming feel a little uncomfortable.

"Okay, then let me explain the final rule."

Ji Zi clapped her hands and motioned everyone to look at her.

"Three teams will build defensive walls at their positions within the allotted time, and then set up flags inside their positions. The condition for defeat is that all members of the team are hit or the flag is taken away."

"By the way, the team whose flag was taken away must join the other team and fight against the other team together."

"Oh... this is very important. If you don't hit anyone when the flag is captured, then your troops will be twice as many as the enemy's."

Theresa said with a thoughtful look on her face.

"Finally, as a reward for the members of the winning team, they will also be given the right to command the members of the losing team at will."

"Hey, hey, hey, what's the rule here?"

Seeing Ji Zi's expressionless face, Jiang Ming added conditions naturally. He felt that something might go wrong, but...

"Ah? Jiang Ming, what are you talking about? Isn't there no problem at all?"

"Yeah, yeah, that makes it more fun."

"Bronya, I agree (? ? ?)"

Kiana and Rin in the team agreed without hesitation, while Mei, Yuexia and Ying also secretly turned their eyes to Jiang Ming.

"Hey, I've never seen a snowball fight with rules like this. After all, it's six against three or something like that... If that's the case, it's really unfair."

"Oh? Jiang Ming, you said that...Are you scared?"

Kiana said with a snicker.

"Provocation has no effect on me, silly bug."

Jiang Ming folded his arms across his chest with disdain.

"Aaaah! Don't use that name in front of everyone!"

As if declaring the beginning of war, Kiana directly pinched out two snowballs and threw them at Jiang Ming. Seeing this, Jiang Ming easily dodged them, so he looked helpless again.

"I really can't do anything to you. In that case, I will defeat you beautifully."

Jiang Ming spread his hands, as if what was coming next was just a one-sided crushing by himself...

......

"...Don't brag! Brother Jiang Ming!!!"

"Why did my snowball disappear as soon as I threw it?!"

"You pinched it too small!"

"But my hands are only this big!!!"

When the snowball fight started, Higyokumaru and Rin cried out in pain as they kept dodging the snowballs that were fired at them like machine guns.

They had been staying behind the protective wall at the initial position since the snowball fight began. Facing the fierce attack, they didn't dare to go out at all. And it wasn't just them, Mei was in a similar situation too.

That’s right, the one currently dominating the battlefield with overwhelming firepower is Kiana’s team on the left.

"How do they have so many snowballs?"

Jiang Ming showed an embarrassment and cried out in despair in his heart.

With Kiana, who possesses exaggerated strength and speed, as the vanguard, and Theresa, who also possesses strength that is not inferior to Kiana, as the center back, they have an overwhelming advantage in firepower and attack range.

But that’s not all. After all, no matter how powerful the firepower output is, the ammunition is limited, and it takes time to make snowballs, which is something that the attacking team should pay attention to.

But... Kiana's team is completely different. Bronya in the rear of the position is replenishing ammunition with great momentum, and the vanguard and center back are attacking non-stop.

"...Ah, isn't this a foul? I saw the heavy-armored bunny producing endless snowballs."

Jiang Ming said with sweat on his face unconsciously, and Lin and Feiyumaru also showed similar expressions.

"This is already a complete foul, right?! How can a heavily armored bunny participate in the competition? When he asked me for a weapon, it counted as one person, but it doesn't count now?! Deli, you are biased!"

Once again, I couldn't help but wail.

“Hahaha! Damn Jiang Ming, what’s the point of hiding timidly behind the snow wall? Come out and fight me!”

Kiana kept shouting, she was even so arrogant that she didn't even look for cover, her hands kept holding the snowballs that had piled up like a hill around her.

"Humph, you are so proud, Kiana, don't think that I don't dare to go out because I am afraid of you!"

Jiang Ming took advantage of Kiana's momentary break and instantly jumped out from behind the snow wall, focusing his two fingers.

"Take the move!"

Countless snow rose from the ground and condensed into hundreds of snowballs.......

That's how it should have been.

"Huh?! Where's the Honkai energy in my body?!"

Jiang Ming was surprised to find that he could not mobilize any Honkai energy in his body. Seeing that Kiana and Theresa's joint attack was about to arrive, Jiang Ming had no choice but to return behind the snow wall again.

"Hahahaha!"

The other little white-haired ball also gave a shameless smile.

"Didn't expect that, Jiang Ming? This school principal had already placed Judas nearby and adjusted it to the lowest power. Now it is impossible to use Honkai energy in the entire villa! And it won't hurt anyone. This is Judas! This school principal is really smart!"

"You are so shameless!"
