Collapse, harem after the end of the world

Adam didn't think much about it and hurried to the old man's side. He found that the old man had several wounds on his body, as if he had been attacked by some creature.

"Old man, are you okay? What happened?"

At Adam's call, the old man slowly opened his eyes, and after seeing Adam, he said to Adam excitedly: "Young man, run! There is a monster here!"

"Monster? What is that?"

Before Adam understood what the old man meant, he immediately felt a familiar wave.

"So, the so-called monsters are you."

At this moment, several strange noises began to be heard from the surrounding woods. Emerging from the surroundings were Adam's old acquaintances—a large group of Honkai Beasts.

Judging from the old man's appearance, he obviously came to the woods to collect something, but he encountered a group of Honkai beasts on the way and was attacked.

Although it is not clear why the old man was able to escape, it is obvious that we cannot leave him alone at this time.

"It's true. I keep running into you guys wherever I go. It's perfect, I'm really unhappy right now."

Adam looked at these Honkai beasts and without saying a word, he took out the Divine Fire Trial.

The black sword was burning with red flames, which stunned the old man who was about to say something.

Why is this guy's sword emitting fire?

Although there were quite a few Honkai beasts emerging from the woods, the highest level of them were only a few chariot-level Honkai beasts.

For Adam, who has long been accustomed to treating the emperor-level as trash, these Honkai beasts are really not enough.

In order to vent his frustration, Adam did not use his power, but chose to use the sword in his hand to kill the Honkai beasts in front of him one by one.

But even so, the speed was ridiculously fast. In less than three minutes, only a few flies were left at the scene.

"Are you the only ones left? Humph, let's get rid of them all at once."

Adam raised his sword and slowly walked towards the remaining Honkai beasts.

Looking at this scene, I didn’t know for a moment who the villain was.

"Sakura! Scatter!"

At this moment, a cold voice suddenly came into Adam's ears.

Suddenly, a pink figure jumped out from the surrounding woods.

The sword in the girl's hand shuttled back and forth among the Honkai beasts, and then the bodies of the Honkai beasts began to scatter like blooming cherry blossoms.

"rabbit?"

When Adam saw the person in front of him clearly, the image of a pink-haired rabbit immediately appeared in his mind.

"It's not a rabbit, it's a fox."

In response to Adam's doubts, the girl answered Adam's questions in the same way.

Although the girl's ears don't look like a fox's at all.

Fortunately, when Adam was in Paradise, he had met someone with cat ears like Padu, so he wasn't too surprised by the girl in front of him. But the other party's skills were a bit unusual.

"Grandpa Qing, you're here. Didn't I tell you not to leave the village when many monsters have appeared around it recently? Why didn't you listen?"

At this time, the girl turned and walked to the injured old man and began to treat him.

Judging from the girl's skillful technique, it was obvious that she had done this kind of work many times.

"Miko-sama, I'm so sorry to trouble you again, old man."

The old man felt quite ashamed of what he had done and apologized to the girl repeatedly.

The girl just sighed softly and didn't say anything more.

At this time, Adam was quietly watching the girl treating the old man. For some reason, Adam had a premonition that the person in front of him should be the key figure in this incident.

"Thank you for your help, outsider. If it weren't for you, Grandpa Qing might have been attacked by those monsters."

"It's nothing, just some trash. Even if this old man wasn't here, I would have cleaned them up."

"Trash? Really. With your skills, those guys really aren't a threat."

The girl looked at Adam carefully, with some vigilance in her eyes.

Although it was true that Adam saved the old man, a stranger like Adam, who was so powerful and dressed strangely, seemed a little strange no matter how you looked at him. It was normal for the girl to be wary.

"By the way, I just got here too. I saw a village here. I wonder what this place is?"

Adam ignored the suspicion in the girl's eyes, but continued to ask about the information here. For Adam, knowing where this place is as quickly as possible would be of great help to his subsequent actions.

"This is Yae Village. Are you unfamiliar with this place?"

"Yae Village? What is that place?"

Adam looked a little confused. It seemed like there was one more place name he didn't know.

Chapter 76: Many Strange Things Happen in Yae Village (Fourth Update Today)

"Yae Village, what place is it?"

Well, Adam knew that the question he asked was a strange one. After all, if this place was really the same as Paradise, then it probably didn't belong to the real world. It should be an independent space.

However, what Adam didn't expect was that the girl's answer made Adam's eyes go dark.

"Yae Village is Yae Village."

Adam covered his face. He really shouldn't have asked such a question. What's the difference between answering and not answering?

"Ha, okay, I think this old man is seriously injured. How about we send him to get treated first?"

"Well, you can send Grandpa Qing to the shrine, where there is a place dedicated to treatment."

After saying that, the girl in front of him directly picked up the old man and carried him on her back with ease. She looked so fierce and frightening. Even Adam, who wanted to help, had to admit that this person called the witch seemed a little different from other women.

While sending the old man to the village, Adam continued to inquire about the news in the village. Some of the information seemed very necessary to Adam.

"We've been talking for so long, but I haven't asked for your name yet. My name is Yaezakura, and I'm the shrine maiden at the village shrine."

"Adam, no last name."

"Adam? Then where on earth did you come from? No one has been to Yae Village for a long time."

"From Saint Freya's side."

"Saint Freya? I've never heard of that name."

"Well, I got here because I was lost. Just like I didn't know where Yae Village is, it's normal that you don't know where Saint Freya is."

"I see."

During the conversation, Adam gradually understood that the people here seemed unaware that they were in another world. Moreover, the people here had been isolated from the big city for a long time, and their existence was quite isolated.

However, Adam is more inclined to believe that this world itself does not intend to let these people discover the true situation here. Adam had talked to Ellie in Paradise before, and most of the people living in Paradise did not know that they were dead.

Maybe the people here are also like this.

But when Adam was about to step into the village, he found that there seemed to be something strange about this village.

Although still quite far away, Adam vaguely saw a large blue flame swaying and floating in the village.

But when he got closer, the flames turned into vivid human figures one after another.

At first, Adam thought it was an illusion, but as he got closer and the flames in the distance continued to turn into human figures, Adam felt that this place could no longer be described as weird.

"Yae Sakura, are the people in your village a little strange?"

"Strange? Why do you say that?"

Compared to Adam, Yaezakura seemed to be completely unaware of anything wrong, and instead asked Adam back.

"Will the people in your village still turn into will-o'-the-wisp?"

Although those villagers looked no different from ordinary people to the naked eye, after careful observation, Adam still found that their existence seemed a little illusory.

This even includes the old man behind Yaezakura.

But the strange thing is that there are no such marks on Yaezakura's body.

"Please don't make such jokes. Ghosts don't exist in this world."

When faced with Adam's question, Yaezakura actually became angry and criticized Adam harshly.

Adam saw that Yaesakura's expression didn't seem like she was joking, and he couldn't help but wonder, was it because this matter itself was a normal phenomenon in this space, or was it because Yaesakura couldn't see any of this at all?

"Really? I didn't expect a shrine maiden like you to say something like that. I thought shrine maidens from the Far East would all say things like, 'May the gods bless you.'"

"Although I'm just a shrine maiden, I do have some basic knowledge. A friend once told me that there are no such things as ghosts in this world."

"Really? That's not necessarily true."

For Adam, who had entered the gap between life and death, he knew very well whether there were such things as ghosts in this world. In a sense, all his companions in Paradise were ghosts.

However, Adam did not argue with Yae Sakura about this matter. To him, Yae Sakura was just a stranger he met by chance on the road, so there was no need to explain it so clearly.

After actually entering Yae Village, Adam discovered that this small village was much more lively than he had imagined.

There are merchants walking on the street selling things, children playing around, and passers-by working.

This scene was something Adam had never seen before, a scene full of vitality.

If it weren't for what happened just now, Adam would probably have thought that this was just a normal village.

On the way to the shrine, some acquaintances were greeting Yaesakura, and some people were caring about the old man behind Yaesakura.

Some people were curious about Adam's existence. Naturally, some people were angry that Yaezakura had not been able to completely eliminate the monster.

All aspects of life were displayed before Adam's eyes in this small village.

(It's strange. Everyone's activities are so vivid, but why do I always feel something is strange and unnatural? Where does this unnatural feeling come from?)

Adam looked at the passers-by and couldn't help feeling confused. These passers-by gave Adam the feeling that they were some kind of puppets without real life.

At this time, Adam looked at Yae Sakura again. She was still the same as before, with no change in expression at all. She looked the same from beginning to end.

"Well, as expected, this guy is more like a puppet than the others, right?"

Adam couldn't help but think so at this time.

Soon, the two men brought the seriously injured old man to the village shrine. After taking some medicine, the old man's condition improved.

"It's getting late today. If you don't mind, there are still a few vacant rooms in the shrine. You can stay here tonight."

"Then I would rather obey your orders than be respectful."

Adam had no reason to refuse Yaesakura's proposal.

After going through so much, Adam also needed to find a place to sort out his thoughts. Now he was penniless, and Yaesakura's suggestion was a great help.

Chapter 77: Ai-chan reconnected

At night, Adam stood outside the window of his room and looked at the village below.

Because the shrine is located at a relatively high altitude, and Adam's room is close to the village, Adam can clearly see the village below.

However, this was not a good experience for Adam.

Because at this time in the village, patches of blue flames were constantly wandering around the village.

The brightly lit village and the scattered ghost lights, this weird combination is like being in a horror movie.

If Adam hadn't had any fear of ghosts, he would probably be too scared to sleep.

If you think about it, the mysterious village, the wandering ghosts, and the agile but cold-faced witch, these elements combined together make it a perfect horror movie.

However, Adam's attention quickly shifted away from the villagers. After all, these will-o'-the-wisps weren't really harmful at the moment. Furthermore, having experienced the scenes of dragons and Herrschers flying everywhere in Paradise, this little scene wasn't worth Adam's attention.

What worries Adam even more is that he has no way of leaving this world now.

If this place is really the same as paradise, then Adam should be able to get out with the mark in his hand, but now no matter how Adam communicates with the mark in his hand, Adam cannot get out of here.
