Surviving in a Collapsed World, Is Something Wrong?

Chapter 253: I am so ashamed of my weakness in my early years, and I will eventually take out the St

New Zealand, the Oceania branch of Tenmangu.

In a bamboo courtyard, there are lush grass, white flowers everywhere, and green bamboos that stand straight like jade poles, tall and graceful, with various shapes and styles.

All I could hear were a few nightingale-like birds, which were also not sleepy at this moment. They were chirping not far away, and their voices sounded like a string of silver bells.

It was late at night.

A faint cloud blocked the moonlight here, and the dark shadow was like a layer of black gauze, covering the small bamboo forest.

There was silence all around, with green bamboos standing alone, leaving only a few rows of intermittent black bamboo shadows in the moonlight.

The girl sat in a wheelchair. She used her fair hands to drive the tires and moved forward without much difficulty.

This was her own initiative. Under normal circumstances, the girl would never have gone through so much trouble to come here, but would have chosen to stay quietly in Tianming Hospital.

But today is a surprise day for her. She is going to meet someone, or rather... someone wants to see her, which makes the girl a little nervous.

This person's identity is not simple. He is a legendary figure in the entire destiny.

He once killed Chi You of the Nine Netherworlds with just a sword.

He also used his magical powers to kill 150,000 Honkai beasts.

He is both civil and military, modest, gentle, and handsome. He is also the idol of all Valkyries, the strongest S-class Valkyrie by destiny, and the fiancé of the perfect girl Yulandel - Jiang Ming.

How old is he this year? Does he look 18?

His achievements are worthy of these, and also worthy of Youlandel. When he heard the news,

But now, a young man with such achievements suddenly found him on this day.

What a pleasant surprise this is.

The girl was still thinking back to the words her colleague had said when he relayed Jiang Ming's request to her: [I want to meet this girl. I have something to discuss with her. The agreed location... is the bamboo garden nearby. Thank you.]

The Takenitaka was originally a venue that was only opened for use when important members of the Mandate of Oceania branch of the Mandate of Oceania came. Even before, she was not qualified to come in, let alone now.

The girl's name is Wendy.

Two years ago, due to her 23% adaptability, during an experiment conducted in the Oceania branch, Destiny transplanted the [Gem of Desire] into her leg, hoping to gain the same level of power as the Herrscher.

Although she was the best Valkyrie in the Oceania branch at the time, she was once considered to be the fourth S-class Valkyrie of this generation.

But in the end, not only was he unable to control the power of the [Gem of Desire], but because of the core, his legs were also unable to move, and he could only use a wheelchair.

And after learning that Lord Jiang Ming wanted to see him.

Some Valkyries said: "Lord Jiang Ming is extraordinary. He must have seen your current difficulties, Wendy, and came to help you. I think he will be able to solve your difficulties!"

The higher-ups said, "He is a big shot in the Tianming headquarters. His rank is almost equal to that of the bishop, but in fact, his reputation is even higher. He is willing to take the initiative to ask for a meeting. You are very lucky. You should be careful with your words."

The familiar comfort and warning also echoed in her mind. She breathed a sigh of relief. She also watched the video of the collapse of Manila.

Jiang Ming in the video is just as the rumors say, decisive in killing, gentle as the warm wind, soft as water in words, and handsome as jade.

Why would such a person come to me?

If it's just for show and to pity yourself, why not do it in public?

Wendy didn't think that the other person could help her solve the problem of craving for gems. If he really had the ability, she wouldn't have to live in a wheelchair and bed for two years.

But she was still looking forward to this meeting. Although she was once known as the most likely to become the fourth S-class Valkyrie, after watching Jiang Ming's battle, she realized how far she was from the S-class.

Jiang Ming's battle was undoubtedly devastating. Even hundreds of thousands of Honkai beasts could not stop his attack. He truly deserved the title of Yulandel's fiancé.

Suddenly, Wendy's eyes widened slightly, her body trembled slightly with excitement, her heart began to beat faster and faster, and she even forgot to breathe.

This was because a figure suddenly appeared beside the stone table in the bamboo garden. Although she could not see the face clearly, she could see that the other person was slightly looking up to appreciate the night view.

No matter how much I comfort myself, I will still be nervous when I am about to meet him/her.

At this moment, a breeze blew and gently brushed away the floating clouds in the night sky. The clouds passed by slowly, revealing the obscured full moon.

The full moon hangs in the sky, emitting bright moonlight, like a jade cup, pouring down the clear moonlight like water.

The moonlight poured into the green bamboo forest, under the rocks, on the fish in the stream, on Wendy, and also on Jiang Ming who was standing there.

That elegant and easy-going appearance was completely revealed to Wendy under the moonlight, and she immediately felt that it was even more pleasing to the eye than in the video.

"Nice to meet you, Miss Wendy. I must have caused you a lot of trouble by inviting you to the bamboo garden so late at night."

Jiang Ming tilted his head and looked over, a gentle smile appearing on his face.

"Ah... No, no... No, eh——?"

Even though her heart kept telling herself to stay calm, she would be lying if she said she wasn't nervous. The other person was Jiang Ming, and at the moment when she was distracted, Jiang Ming came behind her, pushed her wheelchair, and walked towards the stone table.

The moonlight is like water, sprinkling down gently.

The same is true of Jiang Ming's gentleness.

"It is my great honor to have the chance to watch the moon with Miss Wendy tonight." Jiang Ming said with a smile.

His voice was very light, like the gurgling of a mountain spring, giving people a sense of clarity and purity, and even a dizzying feeling.

Wendy shook her head vigorously and spoke immediately.

"It is my honor to be alone with Lord Jiang Ming. However, Lord Jiang Ming's sudden visit should not be just to appreciate the moon, right?"

"hehe."

Jiang Ming's smile grew wider, which made Wendy stare in amazement.

"Of course, I didn't come here just to enjoy the moon this time. It's more about your matter, Miss Wendy."

"...Is it the Desire Gem in my leg?"

"..."

"I never thought there would be such a quiet bamboo garden here."

Jiang Ming looked at Wendy deeply, then raised his hand and gently held the green bamboo beside him, speaking in a leisurely tone.

"I prefer quietness to noise. If possible, I hope to live a simple life with my lover. Hmm... it would be nice to live in a bamboo forest like this."

Jiang Ming paused, and his tone turned helpless.

"But you also know that my lover would not accompany me like this. She has shouldered a huge mission since she was born. She went through her first transformation when she was about 12 years old. I was not able to accompany her at that time. It was not until four years later that I gradually appeared in her field of vision and met her for the first time."

Jiang Ming looked at Wendy again, a gleam in his eyes.

"Ms. Wendy, the Desire Gem was implanted in your body two years ago, right? At that time... I had just joined the Fate of Heaven, and was just an ordinary person who was self-important, energetic, and ambitious. I was unable to help you in this regard, and for this... I feel deeply guilty."

"No need to do this, Master Jiang Ming. There is no need to waste your precious time on this matter."

Wendy spoke suddenly. She had remained completely calm. She had already determined in her heart that Jiang Ming came only to comfort her. Even though the other party was that Jiang Ming, she had heard such words of comfort countless times. It was all a waste of time and meaningless.

"If everything is alright, Lord Jiang Ming, please go back quickly. Your lover must miss you very much. Besides that, I believe you have many other important things to do, so you should pay attention to rest well."

After a few casual polite remarks, Wendy smiled bitterly and prepared to leave. Jiang Ming did not stop her, but spoke lightly.

"Thank you for your words, Miss Wendy, but before that, I have to take this away first. This is also the second purpose of my coming here."

Wendy sighed and turned back. The doubts in her heart prompted her to see what Jiang Ming said, but this one look stimulated her to stand up immediately.

That’s right, after two years, she actually stood up.

Wendy hadn't even noticed her own abnormality. Her emerald green eyes were fixed on the crystal block in Jiang Ming's hand. What else could she be but a desire for the gem?

"This...isn't...huh?"

This lovely girl only now realized that she had stood up again. Her dazed and adorable look makes people want to hold her in their arms.

"You looked too lifeless before. This look suits you better, Miss Wendy."

A satisfied smile appeared on Jiang Ming's face. He seemed to have been looking forward to the appearance of the lovely girl in front of him for a long time.

"I...I really..."

"It's true, Miss Wendy."

Jiang Ming stepped forward, put his hands on Wendy's shoulders, and pressed gently a few times tentatively.

"Look, does it look familiar?"

Wendy's eyes were red and she almost shed tears. Her sadness was beyond words. Jiang Ming did not comfort her too much. He wanted to give Wendy more private time.

"I've brought the Gem of Desire back to headquarters. If anyone asks, you can say that I helped you take out the Gem of Desire. Just as you said, I have other things to do. So goodbye, Miss Wendy. Your temperament is just like this green and tough Polygonatum. Please let it continue to stand tall. I look forward to seeing you next time."

Jiang Ming took a step back, and when Wendy looked again, he was no longer in sight.
