Surviving in a Collapsed World, Is Something Wrong?

"Brother Jiang Ming, please think of a solution quickly!"

"Even if I had that much strength, we don't have that many snowballs to supply. What's more, it's extremely difficult to go out and take a look now!"

"I'm sorry, brother. I seem to be holding you back. Not only can I not make a fireball, I can't even fly."

Feiyumaru looked at his hands helplessly.

"Oh, it's okay. The worst that can happen is that we lose. I don't believe they can come up with any outrageous demands."

Jiang Ming showed a "relieved" expression and put his hand on Feiyuwan's head to comfort him.

......

"Haha! Jiang Ming was beaten by me without any chance to fight back. It seems that his strength is not that good."

Kiana said this proudly as she reached for the snowball beside her and continued throwing it at Jiang Ming and the others.

"Qiana, don't be careless. Jiang Ming is very good at creating miracles."

"Stupid Kiana, can you throw it slower? The heavily armored bunny can't handle it anymore."

At this moment, Sakura and Mei, who were part of Mei's team and had been on the defensive until now, walked out from the protective wall. Looking closely, they each held two unsharpened swords in their hands, which looked very sharp.

"Yae Sakura, come in!"

"I'm betting on my date with Ming!"

Both of them seemed to have made up their minds, and they took their positions and went to an open space.

"Ah! Mei?!"

"Why did they suddenly come out?"

Theresa and Kiana didn't understand why Sakura and Mei appeared in front of them at this moment, and they looked like they were ready to die.

"Principal, you don't have to show mercy to us."

"That's right, Kiana. Don't be sentimental about the past. Just attack me! This is also a test for us. A simple victory is meaningless. I will make you a feast when I return."

"That's it..."

"Although I only want to target Jiang Ming, but since you said so, Mei, I will do my best!"

Seeing that there seemed to be no movement from Jiang Ming's side, Kiana and Theresa agreed to Mei and the others' request and threw snowballs in their direction at a rapid speed.

"Sakura—scatter!"

"Qianming Zhan!"

Sakura and Mei's lithe bodies kept swaying as they used their own proud sword moves. Because their hair was fixed with hairpins, they didn't have to worry about big movements blocking their vision.

Sakura first quickly dodged a snowball, then three sword energies instantly burst out around her, and she quickly cut off several other flying snowballs. When the other snowballs flying towards Sakura got close to Sakura, the originally fast snowballs seemed to slow down, and Sakura cut them down accordingly.

Mei was equally unwilling to be outdone, and quickly unleashed multiple consecutive slashes. After each swing of the sword, one could even see flashes of lightning. She demonstrated to the fullest the essence of the Beichen Ittoryu: the instantaneous unification of mind, energy and strength.

"Hey, hey, hey! What did I see? That was a limit dodge, right?! And why do they seem to be able to use Honkai energy, but we can't?"

Because the place where Mei and Sakura were standing was too open, even Jiang Ming and the others who were hiding deep in the protective wall could see them clearly.

"So Theresa is simply targeting us! You are amazing, Team White-Haired Dumpling!"

Jiang Ming kept scolding Theresa and the others for their shameless behavior, and even gave their team a cute name.

"Brother Jiang Ming! It seems that their attention is not on us now. This is an opportunity!"

"Makes sense!"

After hearing what Lin said, Jiang Ming quickly made a snowball and walked out of the protective wall. However, the moment he walked out, his body's instinct made him dodge quickly. The next second, the snowball made a loud noise and passed by Jiang Ming's hair and smashed into the wall behind him...

"Alas--?!?!?!"

Jiang Ming's forehead instantly broke out in sweat, his legs went weak, and he returned to the protective wall. Because things happened so quickly, it took him a long time to react. Just from the size of the snowball, he knew that it was Bronya who fired it using the muzzle of the Heavy Rabbit.

"What... that power... there's no way to save him, right?"

"Indeed...what should I do?"

Jiang Ming and Feiyumaru both looked embarrassed. Rin and Feiyumaru really didn't have much fighting power, and the Honkai energy in their bodies was restricted. Also, Bronya and Usagi were staring at them.

"Ahem, there are ways to protect yourself."

Military Advisor Lin said this as if responding to Fei Yuwan and Jiang Ming's words.

"Eh? What should I do?"

Jiang Ming asked expectantly.

"It's very simple. First, Brother Jiang Ming, you go out first and withstand their attacks with all your strength."

"I've already messed up when I was still in the 'first' stage?!!"

"No, no, no, the important thing is just beginning. Although Brother Jiang Ming's soul has left, this body will always serve as a barrier to protect us!"

"Using me as a shield? How dare you be more inhumane?!"

"I'm just kidding."

Amid Jiang Ming's screams, Lin couldn't suppress the smile in his heart and waved his hands and said.

"......Um?"

Hiyumaru, who was spying through a slender window in the protective wall, made an inadvertent sound.

"What's wrong, Hiyumaru, did you find anything?"

"........No, that snowman...was it there just now?"

Hearing Fei Yuwan's unintentional words, Jiang Ming couldn't help but frowned. He also looked towards the window and found that a snowman in his own image had appeared in a corner of the yard at some point.

"I guess...someone moved it there to avoid it getting hit by snowballs during a snowball fight, right?"

Jiang Ming said somewhat uncertainly.

"Is this so..."

......

"Aa ...

"Ola Ola Ola Ola Ola!"

Theresa and Kiana grabbed the snowballs supplied from the rear and continued to throw them at the enemy's position.

"Well done, Kiana! That's it! As long as we keep suppressing them, they will be the first to lose their strength! It will be easy to deal with Jiang Ming and the others next!"

"Yeah! In this case, we can have the KFC Star Dome Railway combo meal tonight!"

"Hehehe... What are you talking about, Kiana! We now hold absolute power of command, so we should at least add the bitter melon meal!"

"As for that kind of thing, you can just enjoy it on your own, Auntie!"

"Don't worry about anything else, just keep moving forward like this, for our victory!"

"Ohhhhhh!"

Kiana yelled excitedly, throwing snowballs with all her might.

"Um......?"

When Kiana was about to take down a snowball, she didn't feel the snowball's presence.

"Bronya, we don't have enough snowballs. Please give me some more."

As she spoke, Kiana looked in the direction of Bronya, but she frowned. Bronya, who had previously been supplying snowballs continuously, now had a look of astonishment on her face. Her eyes widened slightly and she looked behind her.

"Ok?"

"Bronya...?"

Kiana also turned her head and looked in the direction of Bronya's gaze—and then, like Bronya, she froze there.

But this is not without reason. Behind the White-haired Dumpling Squad, at the innermost part of their position, a snowman in the shape of Jiang Ming stood leisurely, holding the flag of the White-haired Dumpling Squad in his hand.

"Wha...what! That snowman!"

"Jiang Mingxue is alive?!"

The three of them all had embarrassed looks on their faces, and the snowman holding the flag trembled slightly. Behind the snowman, the face of a familiar girl appeared.

"What—Under the Moon?!"

That's right, the one who appeared behind the snowman was Yuexia, who had not fought with them until now. It seemed that she had brought the snowman here in advance and used its concealment to sneak into the innermost part of the position of Baimaotuanzi and her team.

Seeing that Yuexia succeeded, Snowball's attack stopped. Sakura and Mei breathed a sigh of relief and smiled as if everything was going as planned.

The firepower of the White-haired Dumpling Team was indeed very strong, but that also obscured their vision, and Bronya also turned her attention to Jiang Ming. After a serious discussion in Mei's team, they came to this conclusion, and used Mei and Sakura to attract the firepower, and let Yue, who had the smallest body, go to steal the flag and complete the defeat.

"Wow! I'm so unwilling!"

The result of defeat could not be changed, Kiana made a regretful expression, folded her hands and sat down on the spot.

".......Damn it, I thought Jiang Ming was our biggest enemy. I was careless!"

Theresa said this regretfully in sync with Kiana.

"Wow! My KFC meal!!!"

“My bitter melon set!!”

"(? ? ?)"

"Okay, Kiana, think positively."

Mei rubbed Kiana's little head and smiled gently.

"Stupid Kiana, use your brain and think about it."

Bronya gave Kiana a calm look.

"Teacher Himeko just said that the victorious team can exercise command authority over the losing team, and that the unhitted members of the losing team join the victorious team. What does that mean?"

"Huh? Wha...what do you mean?"

Kiana hadn't reacted yet, but after hearing what Bronya said, Theresa clapped her hands as if she had suddenly realized something.

"...In other words, if we become the companions of Mei and her team, and then join forces to defeat Jiang Ming and his team, we will also be the winners and will have the power of command!"

"Wha...what?!"

After listening to Theresa's explanation, Kiana could react even if she was stupid.

"So if I win, can I get Meiyi and order Jiang Ming to cook a feast for me?!!"

Kiana began to imagine Mei wearing a maid outfit and looking like "Kiana-chan, come on," and Jiang Ming wearing a servant outfit serving her.

"And you can eat fried chicken and hamburgers at will?!"

"Stupid Kiana, the most you can do is order Jiang Ming around, and Meiyi-sister won't let you eat whatever you want..."

"That's right, Kiana, you have to eat the rice and other dishes well too."

Seeing that Kiana looked a little depressed, Mei raised a finger and added with a smile.

"However, today... it's no problem for me to make you a full plate."

"Ohhh! Long live Mei!"

......

"...What happened? The attack seems to have stopped."

Rin slowly came to one end of the protective wall.

"Hey, hey, this is very dangerous. If—"

"I know."

Rin took off the glove on one hand, stretched it out from the protective wall and shook it. That's true. Maybe Kiana would suddenly act smart and not fight for a while, and then attack fiercely when they stick their heads out to look.
