Collapse, harem after the end of the world

"Aiyi, if you don't get up soon, I'll go out and find supplies by myself."

"Hey? Captain, you're back?!"

Ai Yi, who realized that the voice was wrong, suddenly opened her eyes and found that Adam was silently looking at her in front of her bed.

The moment she woke up, Ai Yi subconsciously stuffed her treasured photos under her pillow, and her face turned red.

(Captain, didn’t you see it? Captain, didn’t you see it? Captain, didn’t you see it?)

"Captain, why are you back? Is everything alright in Paradise?"

After confirming that she was not dreaming, Ai Yi couldn't help but ask Adam curiously.

"Ah, there's another girl over there, and then Ellie used the girls' space, telling men to stay away, and kicked me out. Then, I figured there wasn't anything else to do in Paradise, so I decided to come out and restock some supplies."

In response to Ai Yi's question, Adam spoke truthfully.

"I see... Wait, there's another girl?"

"Well, we defeated the Herrscher of the Sky before, and after I stabbed that guy with my sword, he turned into an armed puppet."

For a moment, Ai Yi didn't know where to start complaining. How could someone become an armed puppet after being stabbed with a sword? Is it really that easy?

"Anyway, I'm planning on heading into the city to look for supplies, and that Ai-chan guy is busy playing games. Do you want to come with me?"

"Huh? Of course!"

Ai Yi didn't expect that Adam would take the initiative to invite her to search, so she naturally agreed without hesitation.

The two of them walked out of the hotel and began searching for useful things in the city.

"Sure enough, it's still the same outside."

Looking at the dilapidated city outside, Adam complained helplessly. Compared with the paradise, the city outside could be described as a world of difference.

The dilapidated houses, the dead soldiers and the Honkai beasts everywhere, the bad weather, and the remnants of Honkai energy everywhere, the environment here can be said to be extremely bad.

However, Adam did not dislike this place for too long. After all, compared to the paradise, Adam was more familiar with places like this.

"Captain, be careful. There is a group of assassins gathering ahead. I suggest you approach from the side."

"Yeah, I got it."

Along the way, Ai Yi used a small unmanned detection aircraft to help Adam detect the enemies ahead.

Although Adam brought back a bunch of junk from the World Serpent last time, there were still quite a few usable things among them. After some minor modifications, Ai Yi became the practical tools we have today.

The two of them kept walking around in this deserted city, and from time to time, they talked about what had happened recently.

"Ah~ I didn't expect that the Herrscher of Corrosion could actually resurrect other Herrschers? This is too dangerous! They're Herrschers!"

"Ah, yes, the Herrschers are indeed difficult to deal with. Did I really underestimate them before?"

"That's not the point! Captain, you should be more careful. It's like this every time, every time, every time!"

Speaking of this, Ai Yi became a little angry.

Why would the Captain do something so dangerous? Seriously, what the hell are those heroes doing? Not only has the Herrscher of Corrosion revived, but how come the other Herrschers have revived as well?

"Oh, sorry for worrying you."

"Hey?"

Just when Ai Yi was angry, what she didn't expect was that Adam actually apologized to her.

"Captain, are you apologizing to me?"

At this time, Ai Yi was still a little bit unbelievable.

"Of course. After all, I really didn't think it through. I didn't expect the so-called Herrscher to be so difficult to deal with. It's my fault for making you worry."

"No, no, no, Captain, you actually apologize?"

Ai Yi pinched her face in disbelief. After making sure she wasn't dreaming, she looked at Adam with a look of surprise.

"What are you talking about? After all, you're my traveling companion. You should apologize for making your companion worry about something like this."

Facing Ai Yi's doubts, Adam said as a matter of course.

"It seems like you've changed a bit, Captain."

"What are you talking about? I haven't changed at all."

"It's changed! It's changed!"

“That’s not the case.”

After the two of them walked around the city chatting and laughing, Ai Yi made a new discovery.

"Captain, look, there seems to be a basement down here, and it's closed."

"Really? Is there anything in there?"

"Well, the drone checked and it seems no one has been in there. There must be something inside."

"Then go and have a look."

The two of them came to the place Ai Yi mentioned and found that it was actually a bar.

"It's all wine. There won't be much food."

Adam searched around and, as expected, most of the things here were still usable, with only some snacks and a large amount of various types of wine.

But Adam was not disappointed. Finding so much wine was a reward.

In the end times, alcohol not only relieves your mood, but also has various other functions.

Like alcohol, making incendiary bombs and so on... All in all, Adam was quite happy.

"As expected, it's a lot easier with Ai Yi showing me the way. I never came to places like this before."

"Hehe, now you know my love for clothes is useful? I don't know who it was, but you used to think I was annoying."

"I always feel that someone is taking advantage of me."

"Hmph, then tell me, who said that?"

"No way, you guy."

"Haha, Captain, you're so funny."

Ai Yi wiped the tears of laughter from the corners of her eyes, and looking at the somewhat embarrassed Adam, she couldn't help but feel happier.

As expected, no matter how much time passes or what happens, the captain will always be the captain.

"Aiyi, I like the Captain the most."

Chapter 36: Little Ai Li's Troubles

"I am back."

"Welcome back. How's it going? What's going on out there?"

"It's still just as bad. I searched for ages and only found a few boxes of wine. It's terrible. I don't know how many usable things are left in this world."

"Is that so?"

The next day, Adam said goodbye to Li Aiyi and returned to the paradise.

At this time, Ellie warmly welcomed Adam.

Compared to the enthusiastic Ai Yi outside, Ai Li's enthusiasm was another experience, but from Adam's perspective, Ai Li seemed to be quite busy at this time.

"Bella and Celine haven't woken up yet?"

"No, the injuries on both of them haven't been treated yet, and we're running low on medicine at home. We have to go get some. Oh, what a hassle."

Ellie feels overwhelmed by the fact that she has to take care of everyone here.

Who made Paddo unable to help at all? Things like taking care of others would eventually fall on her shoulders.

However, although Ellie said this, she was actually quite happy in her heart.

After all, taking care of others is much more interesting than the monotonous days before.

At least, the world is still quite lively now, isn't it?

"Want to go get some medicine? Are you okay on your own?"

Adam looked at Ellie's small figure and felt that she couldn't carry much.

"Yes~ I wish someone could help me. Oh my god, it would be terrible if a lovely girl was taken hostage by the evil Herrscher. Who can help the lovely Airi? Who?"

Ellie's eyes moved up and down Adam's body. Needless to say, Adam knew what this guy was planning.

"Okay, stop talking in that weird tone. It disgusts me. You want me to go with you, right? Then let's go."

"Tsk, this guy really doesn't understand girls' hearts. His way of speaking is so cute."

Fairy Ellie was very disappointed with Adam, the straight man of Soul Steel, but since this guy was willing to accompany her to get medicine, Ellie forgave him this time.

"So? Where is this medicine?"

"Some of these medicines can be picked up at pharmacies in the city, but some can only be found in the garden."

"Why was the medicine injected into the garden?"

Adam couldn't help but complain when he heard what Ellie said.

"Of course, it's because there's no such thing as a medicinal field in Paradise. Those herbs are pretty when they bloom anyway, so we just planted them there."

"You guys are really casual."

Just by listening to what Ai Li said, Adam could imagine how casual Ying Jie was back then.

But thinking about it, Ying Jie has probably lived for thousands of years and hasn't gone crazy yet, which is pretty good. So he can just be casual.

Under Ellie's guidance, Adam soon arrived at the city garden.

A large field of various flowers bloomed in front of Adam. This was the first time Adam had seen so many flowers.

In the outside world, you can't even find a normal plant, let alone so many flowers.

"How are the flowers here? They're pretty, aren't they? This was carefully crafted by me and my other self. The girls in Yingjie all loved it."

Ellie proudly introduced this place to Adam, and Adam admitted that it was indeed a nice place.

"Well, she's really beautiful, but I have a question. Do you really still have such a thing as a young girl? I saw in the diary that she's over 17..."

"Hey, hey, hey, don't believe that kind of stuff. We'll always be 17-year-old girls!"

Although he still didn't understand why an adult of his age still cared about his age, Adam wisely didn't dwell on this issue for too long.

"So, what about the herbs you mentioned? Where are they?"

Adam looked at the surrounding garden. Although it looked beautiful, it didn't look like there was any medicine there.

"Oh, right over there."

"Wait, you're not talking about this quagmire?"

Adam frowned at this time and asked Ellie while suppressing his anger.

In front of Adam, there were a few small white flower buds blooming in a muddy pond. There was also a foul smell in the pond.

"Of course, this is a precious medicinal herb that has been passed down since the last era. Now, you can only see it in the paradise. Don't be fooled by the fact that it grows in this place, in fact, when it blooms, it is particularly beautiful. By the way, this plant is very similar to the lotus, and its roots have strong medicinal effects. Adam, go pick some of them~"

"I really want to punch you twice."

Adam said this with gritted teeth.

Unexpectedly, the medicinal herb Ai Li mentioned would be such a thing. If he had known this, he would not have agreed to come.

"Oh my, you can't ask me to pick them. After all, I don't have the means to do so."

At this time, Ellie was still looking at Adam with grievance and pointing at her body.

Indeed, judging by the appearance, the mud inside is taller than Ellie. If Ellie goes down, she will most likely get stuck in it.

"Huh~ Didn't you Yingjie pick this kind of stuff before? Don't you have any in stock?"
