Surviving in a Collapsed World, Is Something Wrong?

The waitress asked subconsciously. After all, she saw clearly what had just been discovered. The first piece of underwear was picked for her by her boyfriend himself. If she thought about it carefully, she should choose that one, right?

But Mei slowly shook her head when she heard that.

"no."

"Huh? Then...what is that?"

Mei tilted her head slightly, clasped her hands together, and then said with a very grateful smile.

"Please help me pack up all the underwear I just tried on!"

Chapter 134: Swordplay Universe Rules

Congratulations to the host for receiving the reward: [Sword Art Universe Rules]

Rules of the Universe: This power was once created by a top-level strong man alone. Unless it is inherited by this person, only he can use it and only he can comprehend it. He can even control the universe. It is a very domineering energy.

Even if an ordinary person only comprehends one of them, he can easily become a demon in the world. However, the [Swordsmanship Universe Rules] are exclusive to sword practitioners, and only those who have mastered the top-level swordsmanship can achieve enlightenment.

The realms of cosmic rules are divided into: entry, minor success, general enlightenment, major success, and perfection.

"..."

Jiang Ming put all the things he bought into the system space, while concentrating on holding Mei's hand and looking at the rewards and explanations given by the system casually.

"The rules of the universe... or are they exclusive to sword cultivators?"

"System, you said that unless you get that person's inheritance, no one else can use it. In other words, you are that top expert? But if that's the case, you are now... in a fallen state? Or... a broken consciousness?"

[Haha, who knows]

The casual yet suspenseful tone of the system entered Jiang Ming's mind, which really gave Jiang Ming a headache.

"Ah... That's right. If you are really that top expert, it would be a waste if you died like this."

【cough......】

Perhaps because Jiang Ming had touched a sore spot or because the system was trying to hold back laughter, it couldn't help but cough.

Ignoring the system's behavior, Jiang Ming continued to ask casually.

'If the universal rules of swordsmanship are practiced to perfection, what level can we reach in the end?'

[From the perspective of that top-level expert, if he can fully comprehend, he can kill the End and Destroy the Order Envoy. If he can fully comprehend, he can easily shatter a planet or even kill a Star God.]

Jiang Ming:'......'

"So... perfection?"

【...】

"So it's perfect——?!"

[How should I know? That top expert hasn’t mastered any of the rules of the universe to perfection!]

"...It's getting more and more mysterious."

"It seems... the rules of this universe are quite difficult to practice."

[Of course. If you just follow common sense, host, you may not be able to reach the state of enlightenment in a thousand or even ten thousand years.]

【But! As long as I am here...】

"Ah! Mei, let's go eat that!"

Jiang Ming exerted a little force on his hands, then pointed his right hand back and forth at the grilled squid not far away and the red bean taiyaki next to it, and looked at his lover with expectant eyes hoping to get permission.

"Um, okay."

Mei responded with a slight force on her right hand, and followed Jiang Ming's steps towards the store.

[Are you really listening to me?! ]

......

Time, 11:20.

Now it's time for lunch. Although I had a portion of grilled squid and red bean taiyaki on the way, it's still a far cry from being lunch.

And it's time to find Kiana and Bronya. To be honest, Jiang Ming would of course prefer everyone to get together, but considering this date, he is worried that Mei will be unhappy.

But he had to agree to it because he was forced to do so. He had no right to refuse. Otherwise, he would have died a miserable death. Now he could only take things one step at a time.

"..."

Then, at this moment, the square in front of the station across the street came into view. In front of the fountain, Jiang Ming could see a beautiful white-haired girl who had been standing there since who knows when.

Her slender and well-proportioned figure seems to be just enough to be held tightly in two hands. The size that seems too big to be grasped by one hand but can be grasped unexpectedly and her flat belly are simply the golden ratio.

She wore an extremely thin orange short-sleeved shirt on her upper body. It seemed to be just barely opaque, but clothes made of this material felt like being embraced by the wind and were extremely comfortable to wear.

She was wearing a pair of denim shorts, which might not be a highlight, but precisely because they were shorts, the girl's slender and delicate legs were completely exposed. More importantly, the leg rings that looked like they were made of leather gave the fleshy outside of her thighs a very tight feeling.

Her simply tied, smooth ponytail reached her waist and fluttered in the wind, and hanging around her waist was the Eye of the Thunder Elemental God given to her by Jiang Ming.

Having said that, this is actually still a very conservative outfit. Cute girls naturally have unique advantages in wearing clothes, but this can also bring corresponding crises to those innocent girls.

Jiang Ming's expression gradually became dangerous.

Because there were three men who were trying to strike up a conversation with Kiana and were speaking to her in a very friendly tone. Just as Jiang Ming was trying to quietly condense lightning to paralyze them first and then call 120 to send them away, Mei gently pulled Jiang Ming.

Jiang Ming immediately looked at Mei Yi with a little doubt, and Mei Yi explained: "I know you don't like to see this kind of thing, Ming, but Kiana can solve it alone. In fact, if she doesn't solve it herself, she may still have a little conflict in her heart."

"..."

“Is that so…?”

Jiang Ming brought Mei closer to Kiana, always ready to take action. Regardless of whether Kiana wanted to solve the problem alone, just the fact that these gangsters were approaching Kiana made him feel that the air in the world had become a little more polluted.

Kiana seemed to have completely ignored these men and even adjusted her stance, choosing not to face them. Judging from her slightly furrowed brows, she was already very impatient.

Then, as if angry at being ignored, one of the three men reached out and tried to grab Kiana's shoulders, but before he could touch her, his body suddenly froze in place as if paralyzed.

Stimulated by this, Kiana instantly twisted the man's arm upwards with her skilled skills, then held down his head and pressed him to the ground, even breaking the floor tiles. She then quickly stood up and kicked the man in the kidney.

"Uhhhhhhh-!"

The man felt intense pain. He covered his kidneys with tears in his eyes and screamed like a pig being slaughtered. As for his companions, they were so scared that they stood there and dared not move.

As this incident was happening, passers-by gradually gathered around to watch the fun. Finally, the police who were nearby quickly arrived at the scene and took the men to the police station.

Kiana clapped her hands in disgust and then stood back in her original position looking around.

"Not bad, though if it were me I might leave a little trick up my sleeve."

Jiang Ming and Mei suddenly appeared in Kiana's sight. Jiang Ming was fine, but Kiana's eyes lit up when she saw Mei.

"Mei! You're here too! What a coincidence!"

Kiana walked quickly to Mei.

"Is Mei also going to the Houmu Happy Restaurant?"

"Yeah, Ming said Bronya will be there too."

"Eh? So... well... Bronya always calls me an idiot, but since Mei is here today, I won't hate her. It's just that I came here because I won the limited coupons for Hom's Restaurant, and there are only two of them. Mei and Bronya, you guys..."

Kiana carefully looked back and forth between Jiang Ming and Mei.

"Don't worry about that. Kiana, Bronya has her own voucher, and as for Mei's..."

Jiang Ming comforted Kiana while washing her hands with a spray bottle filled with clean water that he had taken out from somewhere.

"I've been ready for a long time."

"Oh! I see... But why did you clean my hands?"

"Don't worry, just in case you run into something dirty."

After wiping his hands with a handkerchief and checking them carefully, Jiang Ming put Kiana's hand down.

"Next, we'll just have to wait for Bronya to get better. I remember the time was 11:30."

"What? I'm already 10 minutes early. Is Bronya trying to delay the timeline?"

"The only thing I don't want is to be told that by that stupid Kiana."

A cold and clear sound came from under the three people, and a petite Russian-made duck wearing a cute Hom joint outfit appeared beside them.

"Bronya, this dress is so cute."

"Well, I can definitely see that you like Houmu. Although I'm not interested, I recognize your will."

Mei and Jiang Ming were the first to praise. Upon hearing that, Bronya's ahoge and turbo duck hair on her head shook proudly, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised to a degree that was invisible to the naked eye.

Although she still looks expressionless, one can clearly feel the joy in her heart.

"Huh, what? I dressed up carefully today, why don't you praise me?"

Kiana stamped her feet lightly and complained with an unhappy look on her face, but she was only complaining about Jiang Ming.

"If this outfit didn't attract some filth, I would have been blindsided, but...it suits you very well, Kiana."

Jiang Ming closed his eyes and looked at Kiana with a smile, but Kiana was stunned at first, then she crossed her arms and closed her eyes, choosing not to look at Jiang Ming.

"Humph, of course I know, and those guys can't touch me at all..."

"But you... ran into them."

"Hmm? Yeah, otherwise how can I... Hey! Jiang Ming, your expression seems a little weird——!"

Kiana couldn't help but shudder when she saw Jiang Ming's slightly widened eyes and the weird smile that stopped at that moment.

“…! Ah, sorry, sorry, did you see it wrong?”

Jiang Ming's face trembled, then returned to his original state.

"Really? You looked so scary just now. You weren't this scary even when you were fighting Honkai Beast!"

"Really? Well, it's already 11:30, so we should leave soon."

Jiang Ming walked around behind Kiana, put his hand on her shoulder, and half pushed and half squeezed her to the Houm Happy Restaurant. Mei smiled bitterly, looked at Bronya, and followed the two of them.

"I know! I can walk by myself--!"

Chapter 135 Have you ever seen a simulation training room at four in the morning?

"Excuse me, this is a bother for you."

"Well! Leave it to me, thank you for your patronage!"

Jiang Ming handed four limited-edition Houm set meal coupons to an energetic waiter at the front desk and then sat down next to Mei.

"Hehehe~Homu limited set meal~"

Kiana was humming an unknown tune and swaying her body slightly. The people around her couldn't help but smile when they saw the expectant look of this lovely girl.

But seeing Jiang Ming made their hearts sink, as if a huge rock was pressing on their chests, making it hard for them to breathe.

After all, a man is bringing three beautiful girls with him, a scene that would make anyone jealous.

What's more, these three beauties have different appearances: the white-haired cute and lively young lady, the purple-haired gentle and virtuous big sister, and the gray-haired, no-nonsense and delicate little loli.

This was simply including the XP of all the people present, and Jiang Ming alone accounted for three people, and this looked like a date, a three-person date? !

Ignoring the envious looks from the people around him, Jiang Ming casually asked about the B-level Valkyrie assessment that they would soon be taking.

"By the way, you should be taking the B-rank Valkyrie exam in a while, right?"

"Yes, my aunt reminded me of this a few days ago. But it doesn't matter. Jiang Ming, you are already S-level. I can pass a mere B-level test in a matter of minutes."

Kiana leaned back in her seat, put on a brave look, and pointed at herself with her right thumb.

"After that, I will be A-rank. After I find my stinky dad, it will be easy for me to get to S-rank~"

"Haha, I certainly believe that Kiana can reach B-rank, A-rank, or even S-rank. And I think it's just a matter of time for you."

Jiang Ming was stirring the milk in the coffee while looking at Kiana opposite him with a smile.

“But this is only in terms of strength.”
